Chapter 279 The Third Fold in the Hands of the City Lord

The evening wind was very cool. When it blew, Gu An felt that his skin was moist and cool, but his heart was full of heat.

The street lamps on both sides swayed dimly, and the corners of each house could not be hidden in the darkness.

Gu An's eyes quickly fixed on his small courtyard.

The window was bright with snow, and several figures loomed indistinctly.

The smell of fireworks comes out from the inside, accompanied by the faint scent of flowers in the yard.

Gu An couldn't help speeding up his pace, even though he knew in his heart that all this was false, the desire deep in his heart still urged him not to wake up so quickly.

Knowingly being cheated, but still choose to play dumb.

Approaching the house, pushing open the courtyard door, there was a rubbing sound.

Then, the voice of my father came from inside the house.

"Xiao An is back."

Gu An was stunned for a while, as if it had been a long time since the old man called him that, he immediately responded subconsciously: "I'm back."

The door opened.

An old man with white hair came out.

The old man bowed slightly, looking at him kindly.

Seeing this scene, Gu An was a little surprised, why did his father suddenly age so much...

In reality, it has not reached this level...

Maybe it's because the fear of my father getting old is also one of the fears in my heart?

Gu An suddenly thought of this point. As a child, the most fearful thing is that your parents are gray-haired and old, because this means that they are getting closer and closer to the end of their lifespan.

"Come in, what are you doing standing there?"

The old man looked at Gu An, urging him.

Gu An hummed again, and then walked towards the house. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the flowers planted by his mother in the yard, each of which was bright red and enchanting.

Gu An remembered that the flowers her mother planted were all colorful, there were all kinds of colors, there was no single red, and it was such a bright blood red.

Blood red itself represents weirdness and ominousness. Sometimes, the deepest part of the heart always resists this color, which is also one of the sources of inducing fear.

Gu An analyzed in his heart, his logic is very clear now, even clearer than before, he also knows what he is doing, he knows that he has been pierced into his heart by a strange one, reflecting this kind of world.

But he is like this, knowing that there are tigers on the mountain, he prefers to go to the mountain.

It is also because of the nostalgic feeling of home.

"By the way, Xiao An, go and see if your sister is back. Little things went out to buy a bottle of soy sauce, why haven't you come home yet?"

Seeing that Gu An was about to step out of the house, the old man suddenly thought of something and reminded him.

younger sister?

Gu An was stunned for a moment, but then he came to his senses, is it Ah Ming?
He responded without questioning, turned around and walked out of the house again.

Soon, he was across the road and saw Ah Ming holding a soy sauce bottle.

The little girl stood there ignorantly, looking at the vehicles passing by on both sides with a little fear.

Obviously, the little guy has a high awareness of safety and has been waiting for the traffic to be less before crossing the road, but it is rush hour now, and it is not a matter of a while.

Gu An smiled, then walked across the road, holding the little guy's hand: "Ming, I'm home."

The little girl looked up at him, then smiled, with a sense of peace and joy in her eyes, she nodded vigorously, let Gu An lead her, and slowly crossed the road.

Seeing this scene, Gu An was thinking again.

There are juniors in the family. For the little ones, the most fearful thing is that they will not pay attention when crossing the road, run the red light, and cause traffic accidents. This worry is also one of the sources of fear.

Gu An is like an observer now, silently remembering all of this and analyzing it.

He took Ah Ming's hand, went back to the front of the house again, and pushed open the courtyard door.

Everything is still so familiar, is the same.

The little guy was visibly more active when she got home, and she no longer flinched like before. She stepped on cheerful steps, pushed open the door, and rushed in.

Gu An could hear the little guy shouting happily: "Grandpa, father, mother, sister-in-law..."

Portrait of an old man, Xiuxiu...

Afterwards, Gu An entered the house and saw two figures in the house that he didn't have when he was a child. They were the old man and Han Xiuxiu.

Gu An had already prepared for this, so he wasn't surprised at all. When he entered the Yin River in the old house of the Han family, he had already experienced the feeling of a neat family when he walked through that road and was pulled into the illusion. The final ending is not so good...

But this time, it was obviously better than last time. Although it would magnify the fear in his heart and present some things he was worried about, at least he could control his body and act.

"Xiao An is back."

Seeing Gu An, the mother also had a kind smile on her face.

She was packing the kitchen utensils. The old man was wearing a black hat, leaning on the teacher's chair next to him, swaying. Although the hat covered his face, it could be seen that he was also looking towards Gu An.

As for Han Xiuxiu, his wife was also looking at him affectionately.

She stepped forward, stretched out her hands, and straightened Gu An's collar: "Husband, welcome home."

Husband, an ancient title that seems out of place in this era and in this background, and the phrase "Welcome home", reminded Gu An of many things.

Because he has not forgotten that when he first met Han Xiuxiu, the girl only wanted to kill herself, and then stay with her forever...

The phrase "Welcome home" came out of Han Xiuxiu's mouth, which naturally reminded Gu An of that incident.

Every sentence, every detail, is constantly unfolding, digging out the fear in his heart.

Gu An habitually squeezed Han Xiuxiu's hands, and said affectionately, "Xiuxiu, it's good to have you."

Han Xiuxiu smiled shyly and lowered her head slightly.

When Gu An saw it, his heart fluttered. When he wanted to continue to say something, he suddenly felt that the surface of his skin seemed to be sticky. When he looked down, it turned out to be blood red.

This is the presence of rain and dew when the evening wind was blowing outside the house before. At that time, the skin felt wet, but now I know that it is blood...

It's just that when I got home, the blood was clearly visible.

The blood permeated the whole body, and a lot of it spread down the soles of Gu An's feet, and spread to the surroundings.

His hands that had been holding Han Xiuxiu's arm also became one of the channels for the spread.

Soon, Han Xiuxiu's whole body was covered in blood, just like her original appearance, like a seductive red makeup.

Then, the whole house was covered in blood. All the family members, all the furniture, and every corner turned into a bright red world.

Gu An watched all this calmly. He was conscious, so he naturally knew that this was an illusion. It was just an infinitely magnified fear in his heart, and then showed it to him.

It's all fake...

"Gu An!"

Suddenly, there was a loud shout.

The voice was a little familiar, and Gu An was in a trance for a while, and his whole body was shocked. He quickly realized that something was wrong. The voice belonged to the principal.Only then did he remember that his main task was to protect the principal's body.

However, he has just been immersed in the world of home, and it has been delayed for a long time, which means that the principal's body is without his protection. As for Han Laocai and Tang Lie, without his command, he must be protected first. a goal.

In this way, the principal's body became isolated and helpless.

It turned out that I thought I was awake, but it was an illusion...

As long as I forget my main task, it means that I am still affected, and the so-called sobriety is just a fake trick to deceive myself and others.

Gu An shook his head, the illusion in front of him also began to dissipate, and there were no more family members or familiar streets.

What I saw was still in the ancient city, the scene of demons still dancing wildly!
And the principal...

Gu An looked back suddenly, and saw that some creeper-like plants were crawling around its body at some point.

It was a group of black tentacles, they wrapped the principal, and the sharp horns of some tentacles pierced into the surface of the principal's skin, as if absorbing some kind of nutrition.

The headmaster only showed one face, and the stiff facial features looked at Gu An coldly, the only thing that could move now was this face.

It opened the mouth and said: "Gu An, do you still have a hole card? If not, we are all done for today."

The principal didn't complain about Gu An's distraction just now and was taken into the suit by Wei Wei. He could only hope that Gu An still had his hole cards.

If it is normal, Gu An actually has no cards.

So, he shook his head honestly at the principal.

When the principal saw it, he looked desperate. Originally, if Gu An didn't get distracted, didn't fall into the trap, and if he wasn't controlled by these tentacles, he could win.

But now...

"Can you help me get rid of these tentacles?"

The headmaster sighed, and put it another way, if the tentacle is dealt with, it can regain its freedom, and maybe there is still a chance.

This time, it was miserably tricked by Gu An.

Gu An was just about to make some moves after hearing this, but found that his body was entangled by some tentacles at some point.

He was not the only one bound tightly by these tentacles, Han Laocai and Tang Lie were also behind him.

The black shadow of the headmaster who was confronting the city lord in the sky was damaged, and his own strength was also affected. The lightning strike wood in his hand was directly sent flying by the city lord.

If this continues, Sombra's defeat is only a matter of time.

And without the restraint of the black shadow, the spider also couldn't play a big role in front of the city lord. The city lord was directly irritable and easily staged a big show of tearing the spider with his hands.

"ended……"

The principal sighed softly. Unexpectedly, after persisting for so long, he was defeated here. Moreover, the final reason was not that the opponent was too strong, but that he was cheated by his teammates.

Gu An felt the principal's resentful eyes, and couldn't help showing an awkward smile on his face.

Naturally, he wouldn't be worried in his heart, the worst would be to start over, but the principal didn't know this, and his expression looked helpless and regretful.

Gu An was not given much time to think.

Those black tentacles were constantly piercing into Gu An's skin, absorbing all the energy from him.

He felt that he was getting weaker and weaker, drowsy...

until completely plunged into darkness.

【You are already dead, start reading the file to revive】

[Read file and revive successfully, physical strength +1, vision +1, strength +1...]

After waking up, Gu An twisted his neck. The city lord had killed himself three times in a row.

As the means of dealing with strangeness became more and more proficient, and the power around him became stronger and stronger, it had been a long time since he had lost three times in a row on the same strangeness.

This time, it can be regarded as a clear taste of failure.

But fortunately, it's just a waste of time, and there is no other greater impact.

But I went to school again and repeated what I said to the principal before.

And this time, Gu An showed more confidence and calmness, which gave the principal more peace of mind.

The headmaster was still the same as before, seeing firmness and indifference in Gu An's eyes, he naturally chose to believe without reservation.

Gu An did not let him down either. The road to the ancient city went smoothly. After arriving in the ancient city, he found the central organ of the paper figurine with ease. When everything was settled, the city lord hadn't arrived yet, and Xianxin was still pulling the principal , approached Bai Liu, and talked with him in detail.

The principal can only lament that Gu An is both weird and scary, as if he is a prophet, there is nothing he doesn't know.

It even wondered, is there anything on Gu An that can be budgeted or seen in the future?

The story of Bai Liu is not long, but in just a few words, one can appreciate the hardships of the heroes who fell here.

The principal always sighed in his heart, people are really complicated animals, knowing that they will die, but there are still so many people who choose to go forward and use their lives to open up a channel.

Just like this Gu An, for the sake of a group of ants, he has been trying his best to protect everything.

If he was like himself, the two of them could join forces to easily control these ants and achieve their goals.

Perhaps this is the essential difference between humans and weirdness. No matter how many people the principal devours, how much memory and wisdom he absorbs, in the end, he is still a self-interested animal. He has never thought of any great beliefs, nor I thought about protecting one side.

The story of Bai Liu is touching to people, but to the principal, it is just a group of ignorant people struggling and dying.

Before and after, it was silent and silent.

Gu An knew the principal well, and didn't expect to change anything. He just listened to the story repeatedly for the third time, and then silently waited for the mayor.

Or, when Bai Liu's story was halfway through, he made another shocking spoiler, which left Bai Liu dumbfounded.

He still enjoys this kind of bad taste.

"The city lord is here."

Before Bai Liu's story was finished, Gu An had already stood up, patted the dust off his body, and looked at the sky calmly.

There, the eye of the storm has already appeared, and cracks have appeared in the sky, almost at the same time when he said these words.

Neither Bai Liu nor the principal noticed this, it was entirely because of Gu An's words that they chose to observe.
