Nightmare Attack

Wu Qiang followed Li Bai closely, and Lu Zhangyuan also followed without saying a word.

When the three of them met the villagers who were dressed in bloody clothes, the villagers not only did not stop them, but on the contrary, they all shifted their eyes and showed a scary smile.

When Yao, Shun and Yu saw the three people running towards them, they were startled for a moment, then their faces twisted in anger, and they kept waving to Li Bai. But at this moment, Li Bai and the others had already bypassed Empress Zhusheng's large sedan chair and came to him.

"What are you here for?" Yao, Shun, and Yu were trembling with anger. "You can't do anything here. You can only accompany me to death!"

Li Bai did not deny this, because she had not yet thought of a way to escape, and she was ready to find a loophole in Empress Zhusheng.

At this point, Yao, Shun, and Yu had no choice. He looked under the bridge, but it was pitch black below, and there was no light reflected at all. "If it doesn't work, we can only jump off the bridge. We will first pull the fuse of the explosive and explode it." Let’s jump together at the last moment.”

"Life and death are destiny, wealth and honor are in heaven. Even if we all die, we can't let this ghost cross the river." Now Yao, Shun, and Yu just said whatever they wanted, not caring whether Empress Zhusheng could hear it or not.

"no."

A rather hoarse voice sounded, instantly attracting Li Bai Yao and Shunyu's attention. Lu Zhangyuan shook his head slightly and said firmly, "Jumping down is definitely not a good choice, you will definitely die."

Wu Qiang looked at the villagers who were getting more and more uncomfortable around him, and he was already confused. "What's wrong? I... I can also swim. I am good at water. You guys..."

"It has nothing to do with water properties. There's something wrong with the water down here."

As if to verify what he said, Lu Zhangyuan took off his clothes and threw them into the water, and then threw the torch.

Under the light of the torch, I saw the clothes falling on the water, but the next second, a surprising scene appeared. The clothes fell straight towards the water without encountering any obstacles at all.

Li Bai slowly opened his eyes wide, "This... this water has no buoyancy?"

Lu Zhangyuan nodded, "Yes, this water can't float anything."

"Weak water, this is the abyss of weak water!" Li Bai couldn't help but lost his voice.

According to the "Book of Mountains and Seas": "There is water north of Kunlun. Its power cannot beat mustard, so it is called weak water."

In other words, weak water itself has no buoyancy. Even if you put a blade of grass on it, it will sink. According to rumors, not even humans, let alone humans, can cross such a place, and the water here is not suitable for ghosts and gods. It is highly poisonous, so it is also called Gui Chou Ferry.

Now Li Bai, Yao, Shun and Yu have finally figured it out. No wonder a mere river can trap the villagers of Heishui Village and the monster Zhusheng Empress. This is actually the legendary Abyss of Weak Water.

Wu Qiang didn't understand this, but the abnormality of the water was obvious. Wu Qiang was desperate again, "Then... what should we do? Aren't we dead?"

"not necessarily."

At this moment, Yao and Shunyu suddenly realized that Lu Zhangyuan's bookishness had disappeared and was replaced by a convincing decisiveness. As if he was a different person, Lu Zhangyuan said quickly: "Just now we found the secret of the last bridge pier. There are 9 roots in it." The human pile is very resentful. If you look back near it, you will be trapped. It is also on the bridge, but it is like two time and space. "

Yao and Shunyu couldn't digest so much information at the same time. After all, he had never experienced the weirdness of the last bridge pier, but Li Bai was different. She quickly understood Lu Zhangyuan's plan.

After a moment, Li Bai's eyes lit up, "You mean we set off the explosives when we reach the last bridge pier, then turn back at the same time, putting ourselves in another world, and wait until the explosion is over, then we come back."

"That's it." Lu Zhangyuan nodded cautiously, "You have also seen that the bridge pier is very strong. Those soldiers used an unknown amount of explosives before, blasting the entire bridge full of holes, but the last bridge pier It’s still solid, as long as we control the distance, there will be no problem.”

They wasted a lot of time here, but fortunately, the speed of Zhusheng's team was getting slower and slower. The villagers at the front were almost moving forward in small steps. They seemed to be afraid of the last bridge pier.

Later, Li Bai frowned slightly, and she discovered a flaw, "But how do we get out?"

Hearing this, Lu Zhangyuan fell silent. He turned to look at Wu Qiang, his eyes full of complexity.

Wu Qiang was flustered by Lu Zhangyuan's eyes and swallowed hard, "Lu...Brother Lu, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

"Sorry." Lu Zhangyuan cast an apologetic look at Wu Qiang, "Wu Qiang, this path of survival is not suitable for you, because you have already turned back on the bridge and been trapped once."

"Look at your shoulders." Lu Zhangyuan continued.

As Wu Qiang tremblingly pulled down his clothes, the three of them were surprised to find a handprint on Wu Qiang's right shoulder.

The handprints were extremely dark, like ink, and Wu Qiang collapsed. While crying, he rubbed it with his hands desperately, and then tore it with his nails. In the end, he couldn't remove it until he saw blood, as if it was branded into his skin. " Why can’t we get rid of it?”

"This is a ghost's shoulder, and it is also a mark left by a resentful ghost on your body. As long as you enter that space again, you will be found immediately. When the ghost puts its shoulder on your other side, you will never be able to Can't go out of ̸͍̘̳͂͊̂̊̀͊̕͘X去.̷̹̦̆̆c̶͙͈͚̽̄̈̎̒͜ó̶̧̧̝̳̠͇͕̺̲̹̔̈́̃͝͝m̷̗͓̽̂̌̋̃̌ "Lu Zhangyuan's tone of this speech is cautious and stable, he is just describing the facts.

"What should we do? What should we do?" Wu Qiang's pleading eyes glanced at Lu Zhangyuan, Li Bai, and Yao, Shun and Yu, but none of them answered.

Finally, Lu Zhangyuan spoke. He looked at Wu Qiang and slowly shook his head, "There is no way, there is really no way."

At this moment, the team has completely stopped, stopping in front of the last bridge pier, as if waiting for something. The atmosphere is solemn, but you can see the excitement hidden in the eyes of these villagers. After all, they are about to escape, as long as they cross the bridge .

Both Li Bai, Yao, Shun and Yu knew that the team stopped waiting for someone, waiting for someone to clear the way for them. According to the rules tonight, someone among them needed to cross the bridge first, just like opening a long-standing ban for the team.

In this depressing atmosphere, everyone stopped talking. Li Bai wanted to say something to break this damn silence, but she was hoarse and couldn't say a word. After sharing the hardships together, she also developed feelings for Wu Qiang. .

What he is going to say now is nothing more than deceiving Wu Qiang into committing suicide. At this point, Li Bai still admires Lu Zhangyuan. He is willing to tell the truth. Otherwise, with his ability, he could deceive Wu Qiang and make him mistakenly think that he still has a chance. Vitality, this way it will be much easier to use.

After a minute, or even less, Wu Qiang finally raised his head. He scanned the faces of the three people one by one with his bloodshot eyes, and finally stopped on Li Bai's face. Li Bai subconsciously avoided that line of sight. Because she can't do anything.

"Huh -" Wu Qiang let out a long breath, and in the next second he felt relieved, "It seems that this is my life. Miss Li, you saved me. Without you, I would have died long ago. "

Wu Qiang gave an ugly smile and said, "I will give you my life as a gift. Let's get to know each other. You are all the best people. In the end, I can help you feel at ease."

"Wu Qiang..." Li Bai couldn't help but choked up after being moved by the dark man in front of him.

"What do you need me to do?" Wu Qiang looked at Lu Zhangyuan, his eyes full of determination.

"We take off all our clothes and twist them into a rope. You take the rope to the front of the team, cross the bridge and tie the rope to the shore. We will help you delay, but you must come back immediately. If you stay on the shore, these ghosts will also We will follow, and finally when the team reaches the last bridge pier, we will detonate the explosives, and then you will..." Lu Zhangyuan stopped talking and pursed his lips.

After a while, he continued to speak, "I don't recommend that you turn around and hide in the previous space." Lu Zhangyuan spoke from his heart, being left behind forever and watching himself die little by little, that kind of death was too terrifying.

"Got it." Wu Qiang breathed out a heavy breath, and as several people took off their clothes, a rope was soon ready.

Without saying goodbye, Wu Qiang pulled the rope and walked towards the other end of the bridge.

Things were just as Lu Zhangyuan said, no villagers stopped Wu Qiang from leaving, and they even stared at him with strange eyes.

But after walking more than ten steps, Wu Qiang turned around again and came back.

"I...I don't regret it. I have something else to ask of you." Wu Qiang took out a crumpled piece of paper from his arms close to his body. There were words on the paper, "This is what I left for my wife and daughter at home." I wrote the letter before, but I didn’t expect... I didn’t expect that it would actually be used. Please help me send it home. By the way, my home address is Yujiagan Village, Huangsha Town, Nanping City. My wife’s name is Deng Shuping, my daughter’s name is Wu Liying.”

After saying this, Wu Qiang did not stop, turned around and walked resolutely towards the other side of the bridge. With no worries, he was no longer afraid of the blood-dressed villagers. He didn't even bother to go around when he encountered villagers blocking the road, and just walked directly to the other side of the bridge. Pushing it away, he stretched out his hand and took it out, and a piece of explosive appeared in his hand. Wu Qiang took long steps with an indomitable momentum. He was still the honest and swarthy man, clearly like a general on the battlefield. .

Watching Wu Qiang leave like this, Li Bai and the three of them all understood that this time they would say goodbye forever.

As Wu Qiang quickly tied the rope, the villagers who had been waiting for a long time began to move forward little by little. Wu Qiang turned around and returned to the bridge, striding at the head of the bridge. Facing the villagers and Empress Zhusheng, they exchanged cold eyebrows. The momentum of one man being able to stop ten thousand men.

Elder Sun, who had already moved to the front, couldn't hold it any longer. He stepped forward in small steps and stretched out his skinny claws to grab Wu Qiang. Wu Qiang opened his eyes fiercely and punched Elder Sun in the face. In the past, "Now!" Wu Qiang shouted, and then pulled open the fuse of the explosive with his teeth.

"go to hell!"

Yao, Shun, and Yu roared, and threw the explosives that hissed and burst into flames toward Empress Zhu Sheng.

Li Bai then threw a backpack of explosives in his hand, all on the large sedan chair of Empress Zhu Sheng. The explosives inside rolled out one after another and fell in front of the wide-eyed village chief.

"Turn around quickly!"

Almost at the moment when the explosive in Wu Qiang's hand exploded, Li Bai and the other three also turned around. Not long ago, there was a calling voice behind them. The voice sounded very familiar and reassuring. But calm down and think about it. But I couldn't identify whose voice it was.

The three of them were pulling each other, and the only rope was tied around Li Bai's waist.

As they turned around, the surging wave of explosive air disappeared in an instant. There was still a bridge under their feet, but all the people on the bridge were gone, and a mist that came from nowhere rolled and surrounded them. , the scene was surprisingly weird.

"Huh?" Wu Qiang's voice of surprise came from behind, "What's going on? Why...why didn't I die? I really didn't die!"

"Haha, I'm not dead, we can leave here together!"

Wu Qiang's voice was filled with the joy of surviving the disaster, but none of Li Bai and the three of them looked back. Li Bai bit his lip and his eyes were slightly red.

She knew that Wu Qiang had no chance of surviving, and that the voice behind him was disguised as a ghost, because Wu Qiang could not talk about me, he could only talk about me.

The rope around Li Bai's waist was not straight, but curved strangely in mid-air, but was very tight. This abnormal scene looked extremely weird, as if the space was distorted by some strange force.

Without hesitation, Li Bai grasped the rope tightly and walked along the rope little by little. This rope was their only chance to leave.

Wu Qiang finally won the opportunity for them.

Soon, with a change of light and shadow, they finally left that space and returned to the last bridge pier.

But looking at it now, the entire bridge has changed beyond recognition. The temporary wooden boards on the bridge were almost completely destroyed by the shock wave generated by the explosion. The big sedan chair on the bridge, the empress Zhu Sheng and the villagers were all missing.

On the other side of the bridge behind him, and on the small section of remaining wooden boards near the other side, there were still some villagers standing, but now the villagers seemed to have fallen into madness, standing one by one, their whole bodies twitching, accompanied by terror. Her makeup looks like a bunch of demons dancing around.

Empress Zhusheng probably fell into the river and died, and the crisis was resolved.

As the three of them set foot on the other side, the situation changed again. Yao and Shunyu protected Li Bai behind them and stared at Lu Zhangyuan with a wary expression.

He really didn't expect that this young man who was willing to block a knife for him was actually Crimson, who was hiding very well.

Now that the crisis has passed, I'm afraid it will be a life-and-death situation again.

But what surprised Yao and Shun Yu was that Lu Zhangyuan acted very calmly. He looked back at the broken bridge and slowly took out the crumpled paper from his arms. The handwriting on the paper was crooked and looked quite funny, but Lu Zhangyuan But his face was full of seriousness, "It's a pity that we can't fulfill our promise. Wu Qiang is a different person from us after all."

"He is a good man." Li Bai recalled Wu Qiang's leaving figure, and couldn't help but think of Zhang Yuanchao again. They were both people who valued friendship.

Lu Zhangyuan turned around and looked at Li Baiyao and Shunyu. His eyes were blank for a moment, "But you are not evil people."
