The child couldn't see the danger from behind at all, and the huge scythe fell fiercely, with a killing intent, if I didn't make a move at this time, the child's head would immediately splash out, and life would disappear with it.

"Get down!"

I yelled, jumped out of the glass window, crossed my hands in front of me to protect my face, fortunately I lived on the second floor, not high, and rolled on the ground after landing, and ran wildly towards the child.

The kid was also stupid, lying on the ground motionless, I looked up at the guy in the black cloak in front of me, what kind of face was hidden under the black cloak, skeleton? Or a terrifying ghostly face?

However, after I stopped it, the black-cloaked creature focused on me and raised the scythe, and it was then that I noticed that the huge scythe was not held at all, but floated in the air, with no chains, no threads, and no hands or souls to hold it!

I have already run in front of the child, grabbed the child's collar and threw him back, and then the sickle was slashed down, and the power of heaven creation was launched, and the sickle fell on the power of heaven and made a "bell" sound, after being bounced away, I saw the opportunity to hit the origin of the left-handed Dao method, and bombarded the body of this monster at once!

However, although the origin of the Dao is strong, but after falling on the monster, it only broke the black cloak on the monster's body into pieces, and the sickle also fell to the ground at the same time, after the cloak was broken, I saw a black mist fall into the big bell, I rushed to the big bell again, stared at the big clock on the stone tablet, and couldn't help but feel a shock in my heart again, the time on the big clock was still eight o'clock in the evening, from the time I entered the sunset town, I looked at it was eight o'clock in the evening, to I stayed in the hotel, and talked to old William, And now I broke the window and went out to save people, and I didn't leave for a minute, is this clock broken?

I couldn't help but wonder, but then I saw the second hand on the clock move, and then the whole clock worked smoothly, without a single jam, very smoothly.

If the clock is good, it means that time has stopped, but why does time stop? Or did I think too much, did this monster just deliberately set the time on the clock not to move?

In any case, the black mist just now has drifted into the bell, how do I break the bell to see what is going on, I raised my left hand, and was about to make a move, but my left wrist was grabbed by a big thick hand, and then the voice of the big man from before shouted: "What are you doing?" ”

I was stunned, but when I turned around, I saw that there were people standing behind me unconsciously, and all the residents of the town stood up.

I asked in a cold voice, "There's something wrong with this big clock, I'm going to smash it open to see what happens." ”

But the big man yelled at me, "You outsider, did you want to destroy our clock on the first day? This bell has been with us for decades and is a symbol of our sunset town. Why did you smash it! ”

I pointed to the child who had just gotten up from the ground and said with a frightened face, "Just now, this child almost died, didn't you all see it?" ”

After saying this, I knew that I had said nothing, because I saw that each of them had a "I'm dreaming" expression on their faces, and they couldn't see the monster just now, just like the child, so in their eyes, I must be quibbling and lying.

"No matter what, I'm going to turn on this clock!"

In the face of my insistence, the big man took out the pistol on his waist, opened the safety and put it on my head, and said in a deep voice: "I am the security officer of this town, I will not allow you to destroy the big clock of our town, if you dare to do it, I will shoot immediately." ”

I didn't care, his gun couldn't hurt me, but I noticed that behind the crowd, the old William, the owner of the hotel, had a complicated expression on his face, unlike the contempt, indifference and hostility of the others towards me, he stood behind the crowd, obviously separated from the crowd in front of him by some distance, I don't know if I feel right, but I think maybe he will know something.

He put his raised hands back in his pockets and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I was impulsive, so please put the pistol down, I won't break this big bell." I'm sorry. ”

Dahan looked at me, slowly put the pistol back in his hand, and said coldly: "I hope you understand, you are just an outsider." ”

He and the rest of the town had dispersed, and I had returned to the inn, where old William had gone before me, and as soon as he entered, he ran to the cellar, took out whiskey, and drank two glasses of pure wine, as if to calm his mood.

As soon as I entered, he immediately looked at me, and did not speak, but had a hint of fear in his eyes, and this fear, coupled with what he had said to me before, said not to go out at night, or he would die.

Suspiciously claimed, I walked over to the wine cabinet and said with a smile, "Pour me a drink, of course, I'll pay." ”

I took a euro out of my pocket and put it on the table, he looked at me, then took out a new glass, wiped it and put it in front of me, poured a glass of wine, and said, "It's better to rest early after drinking, it's not too early." I, I'll go to sleep first. ”

He wanted to leave, but I smiled and said, "There shouldn't be any owners in taverns and hotels in the world who leave guests drinking alone, right?" Besides, you didn't take the money I put on the table in your panic. ”

Old William's footsteps suddenly stopped, turned his head mechanically, looked at me and the money on the table, and sighed heavily: "You, do you see something?" ”

I shook my glass and replied, "It's not about what I see, it's about whether you can see it too." Today I did see a monster outside in a black cloak and a scythe in his hand, but this monster seemed to be the only one I could see. I broke up the black cloth on the outside of it, but a black mist drifted into the bell. I watched all the townspeople watching, and you were the only one with a frightened face and not daring to approach them, what do you know? ”

Hearing my words, old William's eyes widened, and he could not hide such fear, and he ran up to me, drank the wine from the glass in front of me, and then said: "You, don't let anyone here know that I can see that monster, please, as long as you swear that you will not tell my secret, I will tell you everything!" ”

I was stunned, sure enough, old William knew something, nodded and agreed, he took a new candle and lit it on the candlestick, and then said to me: "About twenty-five years ago, at that time, the sunset town was a well-known commercial town in France, although it was not too prosperous, but advanced televisions, motorcycles, cars are available here, and there are many celebrities who come here for tourism and vacation. But that all changed when a mysterious magician arrived. ”

Old William mentioned the magician, which made my heart tense up at once, and I listened more carefully.

"The magician's name was Rochette, and he was a very handsome young man from Paris, with a good persona, and a very good way of doing magic, which attracted the affection of the townspeople. One day, he placed the big clock in the middle of the town, and said that it could be a magic trick, a magic trick that would stop time. Everyone was curious, all the townspeople went to watch, the magic began, it was held at eight o'clock in the evening, and the time stopped at eight o'clock in the evening, everyone was amazed, but at this moment, a monster wearing a black cloak and holding a huge scythe floated out of the big clock, and it cut off the heads of one person after another with its scythe, and the blood splattered on the ground, which was very terrible. I was standing in the hotel, frightened, and immediately ran into the basement, covering my head and not daring to make a sound. I hid for the night until the next morning, when I came out of the cellar, however, something shocked me. All of them were alive and living a normal life, and there were even neighbors who greeted me. None of them are dead, all of them are alive! I thought it was me who had drunk too much the night before and was dazzled. However, when I left the town to go out to buy goods, I discovered something amazing! ”

I paused and looked at old William suspiciously, the corners of his eyes trembled, his hands trembled even more, and he whispered: "I, I see an additional cemetery outside the town, a desolate, indifferent cemetery. There used to be no graveyards in that place, but it appeared overnight! I walked into the cemetery and found that none of the tombstones had any names on them, so I walked around and saw Joseph's name on one of the tombstones, a young man who had been away from the town for half a year. I was scared, and when I got back to the town, I told Hans about it, and Hans was the security officer of our town. He said I was suspicious, and I thought so, but that night Joseph, who had been away from the town for half a year, suddenly returned, but none of the townspeople greeted him, and everyone was very indifferent to him, and he was very strange, and left his house at eight o'clock in the evening to come to me to have a drink, but when he passed by the bell, the monster appeared again, and then, and then cut off Joseph's head with a sickle, and I saw it at the time, and I was too frightened to make a sound, it was terrible! ”
