"What's that?" Wang Qiang exclaimed, and then hurriedly tried to wake up the few people who were still asleep.

Lu Tianming quickly woke up, he grabbed the glasses next to him and put them on, looked at the other three, and asked, "What happened?" “

An Junhang also woke up, stretched his waist and yawned, opened his eyes, and said suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Why is it so noisy? “

Wan Ning didn't even need to answer, there was a clangling sound from the stairs to the northeast, and then two green lights appeared from the darkness.

Wan Ning noticed that it was a humanoid object, dressed in tattered clothes, and walked slowly towards them. Its speed was not fast, and because it was surrounded by black fog, it was impossible to see the specific details, and could only see two faint green lights, as if a pair of eyes were staring at them.

"What is this?" Wang Qiang couldn't help but exclaim.

"Is it a ghost? Corpse? Or the undead? An Junhang was also stunned, trying to classify the monster as a mysterious legend he knew.

"Leave it alone!" Lu Tianming shouted loudly: "We have to find a way!" “

"What else can be done! Come on! Xiao De's face turned pale with fright, and he turned and ran wildly in the direction of the gate.

Several other timid people also scattered and fled, following Xiaode in the direction of the gate.

Wang Qiang watched the monster get closer and closer to him, and his legs began to weaken. Usually dealing with ordinary people, even many people, he will not feel afraid. But this thing was beyond his knowledge, he had never experienced confrontation with monsters, and for a moment he took a few steps back, looked at the fleeing man, and hesitated whether he should flee as well.

Lu Tianming saw the monster gradually approaching, and his usual calmness completely disappeared. The dull sound of the monster stepping on the floor with each step seemed to knock on his heart, and he felt a cold sweat. He cautiously retreated towards the main entrance, but still facing the monster to observe its movements.

Now among the eight people, only Wang Qiang, Lu Tianming, and A Feng have not escaped, and the three of them continue to move towards the gate. Due to the monster's slow speed, they maintain a safe distance of about 20 meters between them, which is a relatively "safe distance" in the minds of several people, at least in the minds of several people.

Lu Tianming suggested that everyone disperse and not get together, and the other two immediately dispersed. From above, it seems that three people are surrounding the monster, but in fact, the monster is forcing the three to keep retreating.

Wan Ning didn't get as close to the monster as the three of them, but she wasn't too far away either. She stood to the sidelines, like a watcher, and by this time in the light, she could already clearly see the appearance of the monster. The monster looked like a human and a ghost, its body was covered in rotting and blackened flesh, some ribs in its abdomen were exposed, the scars on its face made its facial features unrecognizable, two green flames flashed in the deep sunken part of its eyes, and there were no muscles in its left leg, and the bones were exposed, causing it to limp and walk.

An Junhang ran back again, shouting loudly that the door could not be opened, and asked the people here to go and help. When Wan Ning arrived, Xiao De, Xu Min and Zhao Mengqi were trying to push the door, but the door did not move at all and seemed to be locked.

"What to do? The door won't open! Xu Min panicked, her voice filled with a crying tone.

Wan Ning leaned against the crack in the door and looked out, but she couldn't see anything clearly. The gate could only be locked from the inside, usually with huge wooden blocks to jam the mechanism, but it was obviously not locked at this time.

"Let's go through the window!" Xiao De pointed to the huge glass window and said, "Let's go over there!" “

Wan Ning looked in the direction of the window, smashing the glass and jumping out seemed like a viable option, but the two huge windows were far away from them. If they were to get over, they would have to go around the monsters, which were closer to them.

"Why are you back again?" Wang Qiang saw several people rushing back and forth, and asked suspiciously.

"The door won't open! We had to jump out of the window! Wan Ning replied.

"Look! The monster is speeding up! An Junhang shouted loudly: "Hurry up, we have to run quickly!" “

The monster seemed to be excited to see more people, and the fire in its eyes turned from green to red, and it picked up its speed and rushed towards Ah Feng, who was closest to it.

Seeing the urgency of the situation, Ah Feng immediately turned around and fled. However, the monster was faster than he expected, and its sharp claws pounced on him. Ah Feng quickly stopped, suddenly rolled to the side, and skillfully dodged the monster's attack.

When Wang Qiang and Lu Tianming saw that the monster had turned to attack Ah Feng, they quickly turned around and fled, while Wan Ning looked back at Ah Feng as they ran. She was surprised to find that Ah Feng's skills were very flexible, dodging left and right, and actually managed to dodge the monster's attack twice.

The windowsill was more than one person high from the ground, and Zhao Mengqi couldn't climb up. An Junhang lifted her up and helped Zhao Mengqi awkwardly climb onto the windowsill. Xu Min was more nimble, perhaps in an adrenaline rush in an emergency, as she jumped up and grabbed the edge of the windowsill, kicked her foot against the wall a few times, and managed to climb up. Xiao De picked up a hard metal candlestick and smashed it directly into the windowpane, making a loud noise, and the windowpane broke a big hole.

When Wan Ning arrived at the windowsill, the three men were struggling to knock on the stained window, trying to open a crack large enough for people to pass through. At this moment, Lu Tianming behind her also ran over out of breath, and what was even more surprising was that Ah Feng was also behind him. Wan Ning didn't understand how Ah Feng got rid of the monster's pursuit. She looked back and found that the monster's target had turned to Wang Qiang. At this time, Wang Qiang was sweating profusely, his frightened expression and the rotting head of the monster were clearly visible, and he even smelled a disgusting stench.

Wan Ning's brain was blank, and she could only climb up with her survival instinct. To her surprise, she climbed up to the ledge more smoothly than before. When she tried to jump out of the window, her right leg was suddenly grabbed by a powerful force and she was almost pulled off the ledge. Wan Ning was too frightened to look back, she kicked hard with her left foot, and successfully jumped out of the castle with the help of the reaction force.

"Ahh Wang Qiang's screams came from inside the castle, accompanied by a strange howl.

Wan Ning and the others ran towards the clearing away from the castle without looking back. By this time the sky outside had become bright, the white of the fish belly of dawn had risen, the rain had stopped overnight, and the air was filled with the smell of moisture.

Several people returned to the place where they had first appeared, the dilapidated garden. Fearing the limitations of the rules of the mission, they did not dare to continue further. Wan Ning panted and looked back from time to time, for fear that the monster would chase him out.

Several other people were also exhausted, and Xu Min and Zhao Mengqi were all slumped on the ground, panting for breath. The other men looked better, but their faces were also very pale.

"What if the monster chases out of the castle?" An Junhang looked at the empty garden with a frightened expression, "There is nowhere to hide now!" “

"I don't know!" Lu Tianming shook his head, he counted the number of people, "We have two people missing!" “

"Wang Qiang is still inside!" In order to avoid confusion, Wan Ning tried to speak slowly, "I'm the last one to jump out, and Wang Qiang is still in the ancient castle!" “

At that moment, a pair of bloodied hands grabbed the windowsill, but they couldn't hold on to it, and then let go again. After a while, the hands grasped the windowsill again, and Wang Qiang gasped weakly and climbed up with difficulty.

"Help!"

"Help! I'm not dead yet! “

"That's Wang Qiang's voice!" Everyone turned to the window and saw that Wang Qiang was still on the windowsill trying to climb over the wall.

Because they were afraid of monsters, everyone didn't plan to save Wang Qiang. An Junhang lowered his head with a guilty expression. Lu Tianming frowned, while Ah Feng's expression was still indifferent, as if he was thinking about something.

"The monster is gone! Pull me out! Really, the monster is gone! Wang Qiang saw that everyone did not go to save him for half a day, and understood their worries, so he shouted again.

Wan Ning saw Wang Qiang struggling weakly, without encountering any obstacles, and the monster seemed to have really disappeared.

After a period of observation and confirmation that the monster was indeed gone, Lu Tianming tentatively walked back, grabbed Wang Qiang, and helped him climb through the window with difficulty.

"Is the monster really gone?" Wan Ning was puzzled. At this time, Wang Qiang had already escaped, lying on the ground, covered in blood, with many wounds of different sizes, the most shocking was a wound that stretched from the ankle to the knee, the skin and flesh turned out, and the blood did not stop.

"Its claws were so sharp that it grabbed me several times as it pounced, as if it were about to tear me apart, and then suddenly it turned into black powder and disappeared." Wang Qiang's breath was weak, and his face was as pale as paper. Wan Ning knew he had lost too much blood.

"Suddenly gone?" Lu Tianming pushed his glasses and said in disbelief: "Why? “

Wan Ning looked at the sky in the distance. In the early morning light, the eerie atmosphere of the castle waned considerably, although the clouds were still thick. She said slowly, "It's dawn." “

"It's finally dawn!" An Junhang sighed, "The night in this place is really an unsuitable place to live!" Then he thought of something and said, "Maybe it has something to do with dawn?" Monsters may only appear at night. “

"Well, it's possible." Lu Tianming nodded. Wan Ning looked at him and noticed that he was a little afraid to look directly into her gaze, and quickly avoided it. He squatted down to help Wang Qiang treat his wounds.

Several people tore off their clothes and tore off some strips of cloth to bandage Wang Qiang's wounds. This is obviously not enough to solve the problem, and in addition to the risk of infection, the possibility of damage to internal organs cannot be ruled out, and it is necessary to immediately send it to a modern hospital for a comprehensive examination.

Wan Ning looked at Wang Qiang and remembered that someone grabbed her leg just now. At the time, she thought it was a monster and kicked it back. Looking back now, the touch of those hands was more like Wang Qiang, did he want to pull her down to attract the attention of the monster?

There is another question, at first the monster chased Ah Feng, but then why did he turn to Wang Qiang and chase after him? Judging by the monster's behavior, it always seems to chase the nearest target, how good Ah Feng is
