Mysterious resurgence

"Hoo! Hoo!"

Yang Jian was breathing heavily. His physical strength in the dream was not as good as he thought. After chasing after him for a while, he began to feel a little unbearable.

And it's different from yesterday's nightmare.

The distance in the village has not changed at all. If the buildings were not different, this would be Meishan Village, exactly the same as it was more than ten years ago. It is impossible to tell which one is real and which one is a dream.

He quickly found Madoka.

Madoka stood in an open space in a daze.

"Did you catch the ghost?" Yang Jian did not approach, but he was still a little wary.

Madoka was stunned for a while before turning around. There was a bit of confusion in her eyes: "It doesn't seem to be here. I found the wrong one."

Found the wrong one?

Yang Jian's expression changed, how could this be possible?

Aren't the ghosts here for Madoka?

If the guess is correct, the ghost should be nearby at this time and try to attack Madoka, but she was not attacked.

This shows that my previous judgment was wrong.

"If it's not for Xiao Yuan, then who is the ghost going for?" Yang Jian was stunned for a moment.

He found that all his judgments in the nightmare were wrong, and he was never right once. As long as it was related to the ghost in the dream, he would never guess the ghost's actions. It was like this before, and it is like this now. Could the ghost know? All your own ideas?

No, that's not possible.

If ghosts could know other people's thoughts, then ghosts would not be killed in dreams.

"No matter what, I can be sure that the ghost must be in this village and has not left the village." Yang Jian suddenly looked up at Xiao Yuan and asked seriously.

"Madoka, you took me out of the village last time because you didn't want ghosts to invade the village. What would happen if ghosts invaded the village?"

"Did I say that? I don't remember." Madoka touched her head and said a little confused.

"Have you forgotten?" Yang Jian looked at her and felt that she was not lying. There must be something wrong with her memory.

Or maybe she also has some secrets that haven't been discovered yet.

"Ignore it for now. Finding a way to end this nightmare is the top priority. Otherwise, if the ghost continues to kill like this, quite a few people will die." Yang Jian said.

He couldn't take care of other places, but he had to take care of this village.

Suddenly, Madoka turned her head slightly and looked in the direction she came from.

Yang Jian also smelled it.

It was a smell of blood. The smell of blood was very strong, as if it appeared suddenly.

Immediately.

Yang Jian realized something and quickly returned to where he was just now.

There were originally a lot of villagers gathered in the open space of the village, but now it is empty, and there are still a few fresh corpses left on the ground, as if they had just died, and they all died in the same way, being penetrated by things. He hit his throat, but this time there was no murder weapon left in the wound, only a bloody wound.

And it's still visible.

There are still bloodstains in the invisible dark corners. In just a moment when they disappeared, no one knows how many people died here.

"The ghost was in the crowd just now and didn't leave at all. The bloody footprints on the ground were misleading, pure misleading." Yang Jian took a slight breath at this moment, and he felt the horror of this situation.

Not long after the nightmare began, the first victim appeared.

Then he and Madoka were temporarily misled and left for a while, and then the ghost began to move unscrupulously. In just a few moments, the ghost had killed at least a dozen people silently.

If we don't find a way to deal with it, the whole village will be doomed early tomorrow morning.

"I'm just saying, if we don't kill them, they will still die. If only you hadn't stopped me just now, cousin, the faster they die, the greater our chance of success." Xiao Yuan looked pityful. Said like that.

Yang Jian's eyes darkened: "That's true, but there is a difference between us killing people and ghosts killing people. Ghosts can do whatever they want, but we can't. Moreover, when we kill people, ghosts also mix in and kill people. Are you afraid that tonight is not chaotic enough?" "

"With so many people dead, the remaining people should already know that something is wrong. They will most likely run home and hide now. This will make the situation even more unfavorable, because whether they have encountered a ghost or whether they are dead, we ourselves I don’t even know, if you want to find a ghost here, you have to wait for the ghost to appear on its own initiative.”

"But the ghost's first choice target is not us. By the time they choose us, it will probably be almost dawn. If we face the ghost before dawn, the chance of winning is probably not very good at that time."

Headache.

At this moment, Yang Jian only had a headache, because even if he knew the existence of this ghost and knew the general killing pattern of this ghost, he still had no way to deal with it.

The difficulty is that it is difficult to determine the identity of the ghost.

Last time he overcame his fear and tried to kill all the way, but he was attacked by a real ghost and almost died.

Although the threat of the ghost itself is not particularly great, in this nightmare, the ghost appears to be very scary, and there is no direct evidence that after surviving one nightmare, there will be no second nightmare.

Madoka probably went into nightmares more times than she imagined.

"Tap, tap."

However, at this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the nearby village. The footsteps were very clear and came from leather shoes stepping on the ground. The sound echoed through the houses on both sides of the path, making it particularly clear.

"Is there anyone?" Xiao Yuan immediately showed the fruit knife in his hand and turned to look in the direction of the sound.

Is this the sound of footsteps?

Yang Jian was suddenly startled. The footsteps were so similar to the weird footsteps coming from upstairs when he was rummaging through some old objects at home during the day.

No.

After listening carefully and identifying it carefully, he could conclude.

The two footsteps came from the same person.

But, is this really a human being?

"Xiaoyuan, don't be impulsive, this thing is unusual." Yang Jian said with a solemn expression.

Madoka seemed to have noticed something. She just looked at the path with her round eyes and did not rush over to take action.

After the sound of leather shoes hitting the ground echoed for a moment, a figure was reflected on the wall next to him and appeared in Yang Jian's field of vision. But then the footsteps disappeared and the person in the alley stopped and did not continue. Moved forward.

"Stopped? Why is this? Do you know that we have been aware of it, or is it for some other reason?" Yang Jian stared at the path, waiting for the next change.

He was not a ghost controller in his dream, so he did not have the capital to try and make mistakes.

One wrong move and you might die at the hands of a ghost.

The figure on the path paused for tens of seconds, and then began to move again.

The sound of leather shoes hitting the cement floor echoed again, but this time the figure did not continue to move forward, but actually turned around and left.

"That thing wants to leave? You can't let it go. The thing in the path is most likely a ghost lingering nearby, and it's definitely not a living person."

Yang Jian's expression changed and he chased after him without hesitation.

Although there is danger, this opportunity cannot be missed, otherwise if the ghost starts killing people next time, there is no telling how many people will die.

He is fast and moves quickly.

After rushing along the path, Yang Jian saw a figure at the corner. At the same time, there were still a few footprints on the ground. The footprints were stained with yellow mud, as if they had just walked through the fields.

"This man's speed is abnormal. His footsteps are not fast, but he leaves very quickly." Yang Jian's expression moved slightly. He speeded up but did not catch up.

Every time it's just a little bit closer, but I always feel like I can catch up the next moment.

There is a subtle sense of distance between the two. At first glance, it feels like they are fishing. The ghost is tempting Yang Jian to leave, or is taking Yang Jian somewhere.

Yang Jian quickly realized this, but he did not choose to stop.

The danger of ghosts in this nightmare is not great. Madoka has the experience of successfully escaping from nightmares, which means that she has killed ghosts and she should be able to do the same.

In a one-on-one situation, Yang Jian didn't think he had any chance of winning.

"This is heading outside the village." Suddenly, he found that he had chased the figure outside the village.

Looking back midway, Yang Jian didn't see Xiao Yuan coming, and there was no one behind him.

In front, a dense and dark forest appeared in front of us.

A dirt road that shouldn't exist in the village snakes into the woods. The woods also exist in reality. They are sandy woods where half a body was dug up during the day.

The ghost walked on the road, and his leather shoes stepped on the muddy road, leaving footprints and being covered with mud.

"Did you bring me here on purpose?" Yang Jian chased after him, holding the only weapon in his hand, a rusty steel bar.

As long as this makeshift weapon penetrates the ghost's body, today's nightmare will end.

Suddenly.

When he was about to enter the woods, the ghost in front suddenly stopped.

Yang Jian's eyes narrowed, but he did not stop because of this.

Just a duel.

He had no reason to shrink back or fear.

So Yang Jian is still running forward.

At this moment, the distance was quickly closing, and the weird feeling of being unable to catch up before did not happen again.

"You can take action." Yang Jian observed the surrounding situation.

There is no sudden extra thing to disturb. This is a good opportunity for one-on-one fighting, and at the same time, it is guaranteed to win.

However, when he got closer, the man standing in front suddenly turned around and faced Yang Jian.

Yang Jian, who was already ready to take action, was suddenly stunned at this moment, and his footsteps suddenly stopped. He didn't know whether it was horror or surprise on his face.

The ghost in front of him actually had a very familiar face.

This face is somewhat similar to Yang Jian, but what is even more similar is the portrait that belonged to his father in the old house. No, maybe it shouldn't be said to be a likeness, it should be said to be the face on the portrait.

"Are you kidding?" Yang Jian's eyes suddenly shrank when he realized this.

Could it be that his dead father is a ghost?

The source of this supernatural incident was the resurgence of the evil ghost after his father died?
