Chapter 7 Race against time
Duan Zheng felt the coldness of his whole body, deep into the bone marrow, deep into the soul, at this moment, the god of death came, he could already feel the breath of death, this is the first time, so close to death, even when he was in a car accident before, he did not have a clear perception of death now, and only people who have really died once can realize the preciousness of survival, and will have an endless desire to live at the moment of facing the crisis of death.

"Smack."
With a soft sound, a warm feeling came, Duan Zheng opened his eyes that had been closed in fear, a ball of fire was extinguished in front of him, and Yang Xiao's pale face appeared next.
"Run, the rune paper given by the Taoist priest doesn't seem to be aimed at the ghost, the effect is not obvious, and the ghost is only temporarily repulsed." Yang Xiao shouted at Duan Zheng and Zhao Rui while running in the direction in which they were coming.
Duan Zheng, who came back to his senses, pulled up Zhao Rui, who was pale, and ran away, chasing Yang Xiao closely, he didn't have time to thank him, and he didn't have time to check the 500 points he had just received because he escaped death (1000 points were equally shared by being rescued), at this time, every second is precious, every moment is a race against death, running slowly, maybe it is death, he didn't think about letting Yang Xiao use the rune paper given by the young Taoist priest again, who knows how many tombstones there are in that cemetery, if the rune paper is not enough, it will be a certain death.
At this time, a hint appeared in my mind again: There are still 30 minutes before the end of this horror film, and the Grim Reaper will not prompt any information, and the countdown begins...
30 minutes? Is it in time?
The idea popped into the minds of the three of them at the same time, and they began to run with all their strength without thinking about saving their physical strength.
"Ahh
With a scream, Duan Zheng turned around in a hurry, there was nothing, Zhao Rui was gone, just disappeared, his scalp was numb, and the next one was himself.
Looking at Yang Xiao who was getting farther and farther away in front of him, Duan Zheng made a decision, he resolutely turned around and ran in another direction, this is an extremely risky approach, he is betting, either, the ghost will chase him, hoping that before he dies, Yang Xiao can reach the destination and complete the task, then both of them can survive, or, the ghost will chase Yang Xiao, he can run farther, wait for 30 minutes to pass, and he can also survive.
But he didn't expect that things are far from being so simple, 30 minutes, in the world of horror movies, this is the time that can die countless times.
"Bang."
In the rapid running, Duan Zheng bumped into a figure, the two fell to the ground instantly, and after rolling a few laps, there was no movement, in the dark, he held his breath, listened quietly, and did not dare to make the slightest sound.
On the other side, there was no sound, Duan Zheng didn't know who he had bumped into, or, it wasn't a person at all, at this time, he was lying on the ground, he was already sweating profusely, he didn't know if he should get up and continue running, in case there was a ghost there, if he moved, wouldn't he just be discovered, but if he didn't move, wouldn't the ghost be discovered? You know, ghosts are beings in the dark.
"You... Who are you? Just when Duan Zheng couldn't advance or retreat, a cowardly voice sounded, the voice was very slight, and there was a trill, which was obviously a sign of extreme fear.
Hearing the voice, Duan Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, he met someone, but he didn't know who it was.
"I'm Duan Zheng, are you?" Duan Zheng asked tentatively, he didn't move, even if he knew that he couldn't hide from the ghost at every turn, but if he couldn't make a move, he would always feel more at ease psychologically.
"I'm Liu Na, how are you doing now?" The voice was noticeably louder, and I could already hear who the owner was.
Liu Na? Duan Zheng was stunned, wasn't she the very fashionable girl before, she had obviously disappeared, how could she appear here?
The more she thought about it, the more frightened Duan Zheng became, she had quietly stepped back, no matter what, this person who had disappeared was not credible, even if she could talk to herself sensibly, but in this real horror movie, it was better to be careful and survive, which was the real goal.
"Are you still there?" In the dark, the other party spoke again, and had already stood up and walked towards Duan Zheng.
Duan Zheng, who was quietly retreating, could already see a blurry figure, the figure was walking in his direction step by step, he still didn't speak, still quietly retreated, the other party hadn't noticed his movements yet, this was an opportunity.
After retreating far enough, Duan Zheng was ready, and the next step was to run quickly and escape from this so-called Liu Na.
At this moment, he felt an alarm, and a sense of crisis was growing in his heart, what was it? I don't know, Duan Zheng didn't dare to move, so he could only stay quietly in place.
However, the sense of crisis became stronger and stronger, so strong that Duan Zheng felt that he would die at any time.
He couldn't wait any longer, he resolutely stepped forward and ran back in the direction of 'Liu Na'.
Passing by the hiding place just now, Duan Zheng deliberately looked around carefully, the figure of 'Liu Na' was gone, there was no trace, he was suddenly very glad that he had just acted, and he was almost doomed.
The pace of running has not stopped, stopping means a crisis, and I can only keep moving forward, ten minutes have passed, and there are still twenty minutes, and it will be safe.
Duan Zheng, who was running, didn't realize where he ran at all, until...
"Ahh With a cry of pain, Duan Zheng felt that his head was about to explode, just now he kicked a hard thing under his feet, it should be a wet stone or something, and now his toes are estimated to be swollen, but what hurts more is his head, and at the same time as he tripped over, his head hit a hard object directly, and he was not directly unconscious, which was already very lucky.
In the darkness where he couldn't see his five fingers, Duan Zheng immediately stopped his voice, his eyes were hazy, he could only see an outline very vaguely, and he couldn't identify the surrounding scenery at all, and the sky was already dark to this point.
Duan Zheng sat up with the hardness that he bumped in front of him, and suddenly, his body trembled, and his hands were wiped in front of him indiscriminately, coupled with the hazy outline in front of him, just for a moment, his mind exploded, and it was over.
It was a stone stele, the stele was neither high nor wide, but its shape was completely consistent with the tombstone, and there were notches, which could be clearly touched, at this moment, Duan Zheng simply had the urge to scold his mother, he was running around a corner, how could he run to this cemetery, he did not have the slightest doubt, this must be that cemetery, in the midst of a real horror movie, how could he run to an irrelevant place.
However, what about Yang Xiao, didn't he come first? He can come here, it is completely a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, no, it should be a live mouse running into the cat's mouth, the rune paper is all on Yang Xiao, Duan Zheng has nothing with him, all he can do now is to escape, that's all, in the face of ghosts, he has no chance of survival.
"Buzz."
A slight sound came, Duan Zheng didn't have to listen, he already felt it, the tombstone under his hands, it was trembling.
Is that the end of it? It's only the first time I've entered the world of horror movies, am I so different from those protagonists? Can't get past the first hurdle?
Duan Zheng wanted to escape, but his feet were no longer able to move, this was not caused by fear, he knew that in the face of fear, he would only struggle more desperately, and he would not be unable to move like this, this time, there was no way to continue to escape, maybe those ghosts were impatient and unwilling to let themselves run anymore.
Duan Zheng's eyebrows were beating, the sense of crisis was getting stronger and stronger, and the tombstone was shaking more and more intensely.
At a certain moment, Duan Zheng felt a hand grasp his ankle, and a bone-chilling cold came from that hand, like a terrifying aura from hell, about to completely freeze himself.
Immediately afterwards, a strong force came, and Duan Zheng fell directly to the ground, the strength of that hand was unimaginable, and there was no hope of confronting him at all, so he pulled his body and pulled it to the unknown place under the tombstone.
Duan Zheng wanted to struggle, wanted to retreat, but he couldn't resist the huge force at his ankle, and his speed was evenly pulled, and his struggle had no effect.
Just when he was about to give up struggling, the strength on his ankle disappeared, along with the hellish cold, and Duan Zheng realized that two figures had appeared beside him.
"Duan Zheng, are you okay. How did you get here? Yang Xiao's voice, he knew that Duan Zheng ran in another direction, for this, he was grateful, after Duan Zheng left, he never encountered danger, it was Duan Zheng who led the invisible existence away.
"I... I'm fine. Duan Zheng hadn't recovered from the state just now, but when he saw Yang Xiao, he was relieved, but who was that person with Yang Xiao? Zhao Rui? Duan Zheng thought, the fuzzy figure is similar, it should have been tripped before, he didn't see it.
In the case just now, it was Yang Xiao who pasted the rune paper on the tombstone, so he saved Duan Zheng, and the rune paper given by the young Taoist priest was obviously specifically aimed at these tombstones, so it would have such an obvious effect.
"It's okay, there's no time, here you go, let's work together to paste all these runes." Yang Xiao said, handed Duan Zheng a stack of talisman paper, and then turned around and went to paste it on the tombstone.
The rune paper was very rough, like sandpaper, this was Duan Zheng's feeling, and it was hard for him to imagine that this sandpaper-like thing would have a miraculous effect on ghosts.
Holding the rune paper, catching up with Yang Xiao, the two of them began to paste the rune paper next to each other.
"Brother Yang, was it Zhao Rui who came with you just now? Why don't you give her some? Wouldn't it be faster if we posted it together? Although he thought it was Zhao Rui, Duan Zheng couldn't be sure, he was also a little strange, could it be that because she was a woman, Yang Xiao didn't let her do anything because she took care of her? But it's not right, at this moment, every second counts, Yang Xiao should never let her do it together, but why?
"You... What did you say? Yang Xiao stopped moving, her voice trembling a little, "Isn't Zhao Rui with you?" “
"No, she suddenly disappeared at that time, I just thought that person was Zhao Rui, and she ran into you again." Duan Zheng's hand kept moving, and he still pouted at the standing figure, he didn't realize Yang Xiao's abnormality.
"Duan Zheng, you... Are you sure you're not kidding? I'm here alone, huh? Yang Xiao whispered, and looked around, but didn't find anything.
"Huh?" Duan Zheng didn't move all of a sudden. Out of the corner of his eye, the figure was still there, only less than five meters away from the two of them, it was obviously with Yang Xiao just now, the more he thought about it, the more terrifying he became.
"Hurry up and paste the talisman paper." Duan Zheng said softly, his tone already showing anxiety.
He thinks that as long as the rune paper is finished, this ghost will naturally disappear, and now that it is not moving, it is also an opportunity for the two of them.
"Hmm." Yang Xiao replied heavily, his movements sped up, and the rune papers were quickly reduced from his hands and pasted on the tombstones.
"In one minute, the horror movie will be over, and in fifteen seconds, you can finish pasting the rune paper." Duan Zheng was silently calculating in his heart, and at the same time, he was also paying attention to the strange figure.
And just this time, when his eyes glanced away, the figure was gone, Duan Zheng trembled in an instant, hurriedly checked, and the next second, he saw Yang Xiao's direction, and the black shadow was standing next to the figure who bent over and pasted the talisman paper.
"Brother Yang, be careful."
