Chapter 75: Murder in a dream, sneaky revenge
Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief and floated silently towards the east chamber.
"Wind Hunter" He Wen's room was in the southernmost part, and he was already asleep at the moment, not knowing that his death was imminent.
Jiang Chen made a little calculation in his heart, and decided on He Wen's death.
Jiang Chen had only reached the fifth-order "out-of-body" realm today, and he didn't have time to cultivate his attack methods in a hurry.
However, He Wen's own spiritual will is not very strong, although the name of "Wind Chaser Hunter" sounds bluffing, but as an archer, he has neither the blood and courage of a swordsman, nor the ability to communicate heaven and earth like a qi practitioner, and among the core members of the Double Wolf Hunting Group, his soul is the weakest.
Jiang Chen believed that with the fourth-order "psychic" realm's dream technique, he would be able to send him on his way!
Jiang Chen quietly leaned out a wisp of divine thought and entered the chaotic world in He Wen's mind......
It's still this room, but it's not as quiet as it really is.
A woman's wheezing sound came from the room, which seemed to be Lin Xi's voice.
ββ¦β¦ He Wen, you despicable and shameless bastard......" Lin Xi seemed to be crying.
"Hehe, don't be afraid, my eldest lady, my brother promises to make you happy......" This was He Wen's voice.
"Don't come here! Come on, come on! β
"You shout, shout and no one will come to save you! My eldest lady, do you know, after I saw you for the first time, I couldn't sleep every night, and I always wanted to find an opportunity to eat you......"
The more Lin Xi struggled desperately for help, the more excited He Wen became.
Jiang Chen snorted, and as soon as he came, he bumped into this disgusting scene, which made him even more murderous.
In reality, how would Lin Xi feel if he knew that he was so humiliated in He Wen's dream?
"Aggressive!"
Jiang Chen knocked on the door.
"Who? Who's out there? He Wen, who was disturbed by the good thing, was full of displeasure.
Jiang Chen didn't answer, and the knock on the door became more and more urgent.
He Wen picked up an arrow from the side of the bed, got up and opened the door with a curse.
The scene he saw in front of him made his legs weak in an instant, and his heart skipped a beat-
A bloodied figure stood in the doorway, his neck twisted at a strange angle, his long hair covering his face, his face covered in blood, dripping to the ground.
"Tick, tick, tick......"
He Wenwen is not a bold person, seeing such a terrifying scene at midnight, his whole body trembled, and after a fierce spirit, he kicked his legs and woke up directly.
He let out a loud scream, and suddenly turned over and sat up, realizing that it was just a nightmare, and let out a long breath of turbidity, and found that his back was soaked with cold sweat.
He rubbed his forehead and glanced at both sides of the bed, and there seemed to be nothing unusual in the darkness, and then he was completely relieved.
However, at this moment, there was another knock on the door.
He Wen's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Who?" β
"It's me, Duan Fei, open the door!" The voice outside the door is very familiar, it is an old fellow in the hunting group.
He Wen breathed a sigh of relief, and went over to open the door and welcome the man in.
"Old Duan, why are you looking for me so late?"
Duan Fei said: "I can't rest assured of you, so come back and take a look." β
He Wen suddenly remembered something and looked at him suspiciously: "I heard that you were killed on the street today?" β
"Is there such a thing?" Duan Fei said in surprise.
"Yes! They also said you had broken your neck and died a miserable death......"
Duan Fei smiled meaningfully: "Is this the case?" β
Hearing the sound of "click", his neck twisted into a strange angle, and dark brown blood spurted out, spraying He Wen's face all over his face.
And Duan Fei's eyes bulged out, his face was hideous, exactly the same as the figure in Fang Cai's nightmare, and a sharp laugh came out of his mouth: "Is that what they say?" β
He Wen's legs were weak, a hot and humid liquid flowed down between his legs, his eyes rolled white, and he fainted.
When he woke up, he found himself still in bed, just soaking wet, sweat and urine, and stinking.
However, before he could take care of himself, there was another knock at the door.
"Aggressive ......"
The rapid sound echoed in the silent midnight, and sounded like a melody of urgency to He Wen.
He shivered and broke out in a cold sweat, and sat on the bed, motionless and silent.
After a while, the knocking on the door suddenly stopped, and an empty and evil voice came from outside the door: "It's me! Good brother, don't you remember me? Why don't you open the door for me? β
He Wen curled up in a ball, shivering, and let out a meaningless whine from his mouth.
"Open the door! If you don't open the door again, I'll come in by myself......"
With a creak, the door opened a crack, and sticky darkness poured into the room.
A bloody palm rested on the door.
He Wenwei screamed, and his body suddenly bounced up like a shrimp, and then he fell on his back on the bed, paralyzed like a puddle of mud, and never moved again.
He was scared to death!
Jiang Chen in reality stood in the dark, looking at He Wen on the bed with a frightened and distorted face, and nodded imperceptibly.
Died of cleft gall without any traces of external injuries, this is the means of "psychic" dreams to kill people.
Although Jiang Chen used it for the first time, he spent a lot of divine yuan, but the effect was not bad.
At this point, except for Jing Feng, the core members of the Double Wolf Hunting Group were all wiped out.
No matter how cunning Jing Feng is, there is no one around him, and there is no way to use the vicious tactics in his head.
He may be able to find other helpers, but he will definitely not be able to call them up as his old friends who have worked with him for many years.
Jiang Chen's non-stop assassination won him a short respite.
In a few days, when Jiang Chen is familiar with the fifth-order "out-of-body" method, he will have more confidence to confront Jing Feng head-on.
Jiang Chen beat his spirits, suppressed his fatigue, floated out of the room, and was about to return the same way, when he was suddenly alarmed by a sudden palpitation.
He raised his eyes and saw a crescent moon in the sky, the shape slightly distorted, as if with demonic nature, affecting the blood and qi in his body to be restless.
Is it because you have been out of your body for too long and your soul is unstable?
Or did you unknowingly step on Jing Feng's trap?
This place is not to stay for long!
Jiang Chen sped up and floated out of the hunting group's mansion.
That feeling of inappropriateness has always haunted and lingered.
The empty streets are exceptionally quiet, and the night breeze blows through the soul, and the body is cold.
A man wandered through the deserted streets, with no footsteps, no wind, not a single pedestrian, not even a dog barking.
The vast city was pitch black, all the lights were extinguished, and the crescent moon overhead was dim.
Drifting across the two streets, the uneasiness in Jiang Chen's heart became more and more intense.
Xiliao City seemed to have become a dead city, and even the patrolling soldiers had disappeared, leaving only Jiang Chen alone, wandering under the prying eyes of the ghosts.
The gloomy feeling that weighed on Jiang Chen's heart became heavier and heavier, and in the cold yin wind, Jiang Chen smelled a scorched smell, mixed with a faint stench, like the smell of a corpse rotting.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a black object wafting over, and when he turned his head, he saw pieces of paper money, burning in mid-air and turning into wisps of black ashβthe source of the burnt smell he smelled.
Turning his head again, Jiang Chen's back was cold, and only then did he see the scene behind him, which was no longer the same as when he walked by just now.
- At some point, he was already on a desolate path, with countless spirit flags floating in the air, and faint phosphorus fire filling the grass graves and mounds, and the whole world revealed a sense of unreality.
Is this a nightmare?
After walking for a long time at night, you will eventually hit a ghost! Ben Shaoxia pretended to be a ghost and scary, but he was also haunted by ghosts and fell into a nightmare?
Jiang Chen forced his composure and said coldly: "Charm and spirit! Quickly retreat! β
The voice swirled in the whimpering wind, twisted and distorted, not even like he had shouted it himself.
Jiang Chen looked up at the sky, only to see that the night was as deep as thick ink, the clouds covered the sky, and the crescent moon had disappeared.
When his gaze fell back to the nozuka, he saw a scalp-numbing sceneβ
In the faintly beating phosphorus fire, a dozen vague figures suddenly appeared, their postures stiff and numb, their arms stretched forward, and they walked towards him without saying a word.
Jiang Chen's heart was beating wildly, and he vaguely saw familiar faces among these people: Duan Fei, He Wen, Shi Dinghai, Ecstasy Lady, Old Man Song...... They were all dead souls at his hands.
They were bleeding, their eyes were empty, and they were wearing bloody clothes, and they were approaching Jiang Chen step by step.
Is this a revenant coming to ask for his life?
Their faces are extremely hideous and distorted, maintaining the appearance of the last moment before death, and ordinary people will have nightmares when they look at them a few more times.
Jiang Chen took a big step back, took a deep breath, and found that his skills were still light and agile, so he calmed down a little.
This young man's dignified fifth-order "out-of-body" god refining cultivator would not be afraid of the souls of the dead! If it weren't for the exhaustion caused by today's repeated battles, I wouldn't have been haunted by these newly dead ghosts.
Heroes don't suffer immediate losses, this young man is not in a good state at the moment, don't worry about you ghosts first, and let me go back to cultivate my spirit, practice the "out-of-body" means, and then accompany you to have a good time!
The wind is tight, and it is!
In this wilderness, and the fog is vast in the distance, where should I run?
A soft female voice suddenly sounded beside her: "Why are there so many resentful spirits?" β
Jiang Chen turned his face sideways, and saw a beautiful and elegant figure in the dark night coming out of the mist, and glanced at himself, with a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.
That woman's face is delicate and beautiful, like a rose blooming quietly in the dark night, who is it not Lin Xi?
"Jiang Shaoxia, it turned out to be you."
Jiang Chen smiled unnaturally: "Yes, what a coincidence. It's so late, is Miss Lin also here for a walk? β
"I feel that the yin qi here is very heavy, so I am out of my body." Lin Xi's gaze fell on the approaching ghosts, and his eyebrows frowned slightly, "These ghosts have such a heavy grudge!" It's really strange that their resentment still echoes each other, and together they create this Netherworld Domain...... Are they all dead at your hands? β
Jiang Chen gasped. Listening to Lin Xi's tone, this group of life-seeking ghosts gathered together, and it seemed that their combat power had doubled......
Facing Lin Xi's puzzled gaze, Jiang Chen laughed dryly twice and said, "I shouldn't have killed so many people, they may have admitted their mistake." β
Lin Xi's gaze swept over the ghosts, and he stretched out his hand to point to one of them: "I was meditating in the house just now, and I sensed that someone was weaving nightmares with spiritism, causing He Wen Shaoxia to be scared to death, is it your masterpiece?" β
The ghost she was referring to was He Wen, and when it heard what Lin Xi said, it became more and more excited and angry, and took a few steps forward with its teeth and claws, and was glared at by Jiang Chen, and then shrank back in fright.
"Miss Lin Mingjian, I just walked by here and found that this kid was doing bad things in his dream, so he used a little means to punish him, who knew that he was as timid as a mouse, and he was directly scared to death. By the way, Miss Lin doesn't know what he did to you in his dreams, right? β
"I don't have a hobby of snooping into other people's privacy." Lin Xi shook his head indifferently, but the corners of his lips twitched slightly.
Without Jiang Chen elaborating, Lin Xi could also guess that what He Wen did to her in his dream was definitely not a good thing.
Jiang Chen pointed to another female ghost with a cloak: "And that ecstasy lady, you see that she has become a ghost and scratches her head, what kind of good person can she be?" β
"Jiang Shaoxia, you don't have to explain this to me, I promised you before that I wouldn't ask about the grievances between you. You must have your reasons for killing them, and none of this has anything to do with me. β
"Thank you for your understanding."
Lin Xi's tone changed, and he said softly: "Today in the north of the city, thank you for your mercy, I'm here anyway, so I'll take you out of this ghost domain by the way!" β
Jiang Chen saw the faces of those dead ghosts getting closer and closer, his throat and eyes were panicked, and he hurriedly said, "Miss Lin is tired of leading the way." β
"Hold on to my sleeve." Lin Xi's right hand was retracted into his sleeve, leaving a piece of cloth for Jiang Chen to lead, and turned around and walked towards the wilderness mist.
The future is uncertain, and I can't see it really.
It was so quiet in the fog that even the sound of footsteps seemed to disappear.
The two of them walked forward one foot deep and one foot shallow, winding back and forth, not knowing the direction.
After walking for a while, Jiang Chen couldn't help but ask, "Are we lost?" β
He knew that although Lin Xi had a magic weapon to protect himself, his cultivation realm was only average, and he was even inferior to himself.
"Shhhh......h β
The dead silence in the dark night gave people the illusion, if it weren't for the clothes he was holding in his hands, Jiang Chen wouldn't be sure if there was another person beside him.
He was mentally exhausted at the moment, his spiritual sense was weak, he had long lost his way, and he didn't know how far he had gone, only to see the same darkness on the left and right, like a wall, imprisoning him in a small square inch.
With his current state, if he didn't have Lin Xi to lead the way, even if he ran wild all night, he might not be able to escape the pursuit of those ghosts.
After a long time, Jiang Chen felt as if he was still spinning in place, but he heard Lin Xi breathe a sigh of relief and said, "It's out." β
As if in response to these words, the moonlight poked its head out from behind the clouds, like a layer of clear light reflected on her face, spreading softly, illuminating the surrounding land into a bright spot.
In an instant, the fog that permeated the wilderness dissipated, and the outlines of the walls and eaves were clearly visible in the distance.
And those ghosts chasing behind have long since disappeared.
"Miss Lin, thank you very much." Jiang Chen thanked him.
Lin Xi smiled: "You're welcome, it's just a gesture......"
Before she finished speaking, there seemed to be a hot wind slowly blowing behind her, her heart jumped, and before she could react, she heard a chuckle in her ears: "Hey! β
The laughter is low, difficult to distinguish between men and women, both playful and inexplicably malicient, and it resounds in this ghost realm, adding a bit of ethereal and weird flavor.
