CHAPTER 5 CHAPTER XXIX
"Haha, Zhang Chen, you really surprised me. In this case, the members of the girl team are now transferred to the bald team, and the difficulty of the level has increased. There will be an indirect hint from an intermediary today about the third level, and I look forward to your expression."
This is the end of the clown's words. Everyone in the car was silent for a long time, and Wan Yue, who was sitting in the back row, didn't speak, she also knew in her heart how big the span between the first level and the second level was, if the third level was more difficult now, I was afraid that this first-level prison officer might die if he was not careful.
"I ......" The car continued to drive, and Wan Yue was also about to stop.
"Now that Zhang Chen has made a decision, let's continue today's task, and go to the old city to see the ancient building where Zhang Chen's spirit migrated last time." Puhu said very calmly.
"Master Puhu, the thing behind this Dujiang City shouldn't be a 'nightmare', right?" Zhang Chen asked heavily.
"Possibly." As soon as Puhu's words came out, the atmosphere in the car instantly became lifeless. Because everyone knows how strong the so-called Nightmare is, and once it comes to the Nightmare event, the difficulty of the task is at least at the level of the prison director.
"But don't worry too much, the probability of a nightmare is only 20% at most. And once there is really a nightmare in the world, then there will naturally be big people to intervene, so let's follow this game flow first."
Although Puhu said this, everyone was still silent, after all, this is a matter of everyone's life, and they can't help but feel a little worried.
The time is already nine o'clock in the morning, and the urban area of Dujiang City has become busy, Ding Jian drove the car to stop and go, and it should take half an hour to arrive at the old city. Wan Yue, who was sitting in the back of the car and was sandwiched between Zhang Chen and Yang Lanqin, looked at Zhang Chen beside him, a little hesitant, but finally asked
"You... Your name is Zhang Chen, right?"
"Yes, it's all surnames." Zhang Chen replied.
"That thing in your body has a subtle connection to you, and it feels powerful, what is it?" What Wan Yue said was naturally the blood spirit in Zhang Chen's right chest.
"Oh? Can you feel it?" Zhang Chen was a little surprised. After all, the blood spirit was dormant and he was in his own body, even Zhang Chen himself couldn't feel the breath of the blood spirit emanating from it.
Wan Yue nodded and hummed softly.
"It's a mid-level ghost worm that signed a contract with me. I guess it's a symbiotic relationship with us, and we benefit from each other. But it's dormant at the moment, so I can show you."
"Ghost worm, contract? Wow, it should be like a baby in the game, right? I'd love to have one, too." This Wan Yue looked at Zhang Chen's right chest with glowing eyes, if people who didn't know would really think it was a pervert.
"Wan Yue, how old are you?" Zhang Chen looked at the small girl in front of him, who seemed to be smaller than Wang Yizhi and Worm Firefly.
"Huh? Me? I just turned 15 this year, and I was diagnosed with congenital myocardial atrophy when I was born, and doctors said that I would not live to be three years old. Who knew I lived until I was 14 years old before I died. Mom and Dad have taken me all over the country for as long as I can remember, and I was so satisfied that I would be able to return to this world." Wan Yue was very happy to tell her past, without any sadness, as if she was sharing her happy experience with others.
"Did you go back to see your mom and dad after you became a prison envoy?" Zhang Chen's heart was touched by Wan Yue, who was more than a year younger than him.
"No. I also have a younger sister. She just turned five this year, and it's enough for her to stay with her mom and dad. And Brother Big Bear said that as a prison envoy, you will often encounter danger, and it would be really bad if you implicate your parents, so I will live alone. When I was in Pi County, Sister Qin Li took great care of me......" When she said this, a trace of melancholy flashed in Wan Yue's eyes.
"Let's go to Jinxi County. The guy driving in front of you is the police chief, and he has a place for you to stay." Zhang Chen was a little moved, looking at Wan Yue and remembering something sad again, he actually made a joke with Ding Jian.
"Even if you come to Jinxi County, I have an elevator apartment in the county that no one lives in." I didn't expect Ding Jian to take this matter seriously.
"Sister Wan Yue, don't believe that policeman's words. This guy eats it all in black and white, and he doesn't even know if he sells you. Then follow my sister and me, although I live in the teacher's apartment, it is still possible to free up a bed."
The depressing atmosphere in the car actually became active, and Zhang Chen was also determined to live.
…………
"The old town has arrived."
Ding Jian parked his car in an underground parking lot outside the old city. The old town in the center of Dujiang is not allowed to enter by vehicles, and you must walk in and out, and the old city is also a typical representative of Dujiang City.
"It's a bit of a step into the past." After Zhang Chen walked into the old city, he still felt a trace of antique taste.
"Zhang Chen, the place where your spirit is being pulled should be this place, right?" Puhu asked.
"It should be correct here, there should be a four-story ancient building in the middle of this old city, and the spirit is also cut off when entering the ancient building." Zhang Chen said affirmatively.
"Then let's hurry up and try to finish the matter as soon as possible. The rest of the time is going to be spent preparing for the third level." Under Puhu's orders, everyone immediately quickened their pace.
Zhang Chen walked in the streets and alleys of this old city and still noticed a little bit with the rest of Dujiang City. [,! There is not a single Christian in the old city with a cross or a Bible in his hand. And in other parts of Dujiang City, one or two out of ten people are bound to have the above characteristics.
"It's the center of the old city in front of you, why can't you see the four-story old building?" Yang Lanqin asked with a puzzled expression.
"It's really here, it's weird. The buildings around are the same as the ones I saw in the intrusion into the waiter's brain, so let's go and see them first." Zhang Chen looked at the four-storey ancient building in front of him that should not have zài in his mind, and his heart was also full of doubts.
When everyone came to the location of the ancient building described by Zhang Chen, there was a two-story old city museum in front of them.
"Zhang Chen, are you sure it's here?" Puhu asked.
"It's here, indeed, but I don't know why the old building is gone."
"There's something strange about this museum, but I can't tell where it is. My main soul stone has a very subtle sense." Wan Yue, who was standing at the back of the crowd, said softly.
"In that case, let's go in and have a look." Puhu led the crowd and walked in together.
The museum does not occupy a very large area, and the interior layout is very ordinary, the walls and ledges are displayed with some very ordinary documents and photographs or some rough bronze or ebony carvings, and there are only a few foreign tourists in the museum, and there seems to be no administrator here.
Wan Yue did not walk around and observe after everyone entered the museum, but stopped in place and subtly sensed the places in the entire museum that brought her strange feelings.
"There's something on the second floor." Wan Yue opened her eyes and said to the people who were looking around.
A group of five people carefully arrived at the second floor after finding an old wooden staircase leading to the second floor from the right side of the museum. However, the cultural relics and artworks hanging on the walls of the second floor are similar to those on the first floor, except that there is a glass booth in the center of the second floor, in which there seems to be something very valuable.
"This ...... This is the four-story building I saw." When Zhang Chen got closer, he saw that in the center of the booth was a small ancient building that was extremely delicate and very different from the other rough displays in the entire museum.
Ding Jian and Yang Lanqin didn't see anything unusual about this small ancient building, but Zhang Chen and Pu Hu's eyes showed expressions of surprise.
"Old man, what's going on?" Ding Jian immediately asked.
"I can't get my eyes on this small building." Pu Hu said softly, and Zhang Chen on the side was the same, even if it was blessed with Yuan Li, the telekinetic silk thread could not be immersed in this small ancient building.
"Wan Yue, have you found anything?" Zhang Chen felt that this Wan Yue was very different, and it was impossible for Zhang Chen to feel the strangeness of this small ancient building outside of this museum.
"In this small old building, it seems to be ...... My sense is also very weak, and I can only vaguely sense that there should be something inside, and I can't tell whether it is dead or alive."
Zhang Chen looked at Wan Yue with an approving gaze, this little third-level prison target didn't seem to be bad at all.
"Master Puhu, do you want to take it away?" Zhang Chen passed on the sound to Puhu with a solemn face.
"Let me look at it for a moment before I draw conclusions." Puhu seemed to be very cautious about this delicate small ancient building, and was about to put his hand into his shirt when a voice came from behind everyone.
"It's rare to see someone interested in the 'Wangren Tower', haha."
Puhu stopped taking things, and everyone turned around and saw an old man who was not plainly dressed and had gray hair appearing behind him, his weather-beaten face was full of traces left by the years, but the pair of jet-black eyes were looking at his group with a bright look.
"I'm the administrator here, I'm 93 years old, just call me Lao Qiu. If there is anything you want to know, just ask, I still know some of the big and small things in Dujiang City." The old man said very kindly in a dialect.
