Nightmare Apostle

Chapter 30: Sailing in the Fog

What's going on?

Did the two teams find the Third Young Master?

Su Tingting's face was pale and she was shaking all over. She was terrified by the inexplicable weird scene in front of her and the angry Yang Xiao.

People will do unpredictable things when they are afraid. Yang Xiao knew that he couldn't scare her anymore. He slowly let go of her hand. Su Tingting fell to the ground, her lips trembling and she kept apologizing. Her eyes were red. "I'm sorry... I just want to leave here quickly. I'm sorry, I didn't know it would..."

He glanced at the reed marsh. The Third Young Master was still in that ghostly look. He turned his back to them and kept making strange crying sounds.

Yang Xiao took a deep breath, slowly squatted down, and gently hugged Su Tingting in her terrified eyes, "Don't be afraid, I know you didn't mean it. Please calm down now."

Yang Xiao still understood that when you are busy, there will be chaos, and when there is chaos, there will be changes. It is particularly important to ensure that Su Tingting calms down and doesn't do stupid things.

After Su Tingting stopped shaking, Yang Xiao held up Su Tingting's face and asked her to look at him, "From now on, you listen to me in everything. I will take you home, okay?"

After hearing the word "home", Su Tingting's dark eyes lit up and nodded quickly. Compared with the alienation brought to her by other teammates, Yang Xiao at this moment was simply an angel.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Su Tingting cooperated very well, "Then what should we do now? Let's leave here first, right?"

Yang Xiao shook his head, "Not yet, do you remember what Steward Liu said besides the disappearance of the Third Young Master, what else?"

Su Tingting immediately reacted, "There are also two paper substitutes of the Third Young Master."

"Yes, I think only one of the Third Young Masters met by our three teams is real, and the other two are paper dolls."

There is no need to say the rest. If you accidentally take a paper doll on board, the people on the boat are doomed to be in danger.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Tingting asked the most crucial question, "In your opinion, is this Third Young Master real or fake?"

"I don't know, he has his back to us, so it's hard to judge." Yang Xiao told Su Tingting to keep an eye on the lanterns and the life-extending incense on the bow, and he stood up and manipulated the pole, intending to change direction to see the true face of this Third Young Master.

The sound of the pole paddling the water did not attract the Third Young Master's attention at all, which was strange, but considering that the Third Young Master was already crazy, this was not enough to serve as a basis for judgment.

But after changing the direction, Yang Xiao and Su Tingting were silent. They still couldn't see the Third Young Master's face clearly because the Third Young Master's posture had also changed.

The whole person was half squatting, his body was crooked, one arm stretched out diagonally, the other arm bent, the wide sleeves fell down, just covering his face, and the creepy crying came from behind the sleeves, intermittently.

This hazy scene of a woman holding a pipa and half covering her face appeared here. Not only was there no beauty, but on the contrary, it brought only deep fear to Yang Xiao and the others.

Yang Xiao moved the pole, and the boat slowly sailed towards the Third Young Master. This shocked Su Tingting, and she looked at Yang Xiao with horror.

Yang Xiao gave her a reassuring look. At this moment, Yang Xiao could even hear his own heartbeat, but he had to get closer, otherwise if this Third Young Master was real, the consequences would be very serious, and even implicate the teammates on the other two boats.

When there was only 3 or 4 meters away from the Third Young Master, Yang Xiao immediately drove the boat back, and the speed was several times faster than when he came. Su Tingting didn't see anything, but she knew that Yang Xiao must have found a clue and confirmed that this Third Young Master was fake.

When the distance was far away, the figure of the Third Young Master completely disappeared in the mist, and Yang Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at this moment Su Tingting asked.

"Is this Third Young Master fake?"

"Yes." Yang Xiao nodded.

"How did you figure that out?"

"When the boat approached just now, I used the lantern light to see his clothes clearly. His clothes were dry, and the hem was dry too. Just imagine, a crazy guy stole a boat in the dark at night and ran to the lake. Could he not get wet at all?" Yang Xiao sat down by the cabin, still holding the pole tightly in his hand, "Unless it's that kind of thing."

Su Tingting suddenly realized, "Paper man?"

"Yes, only paper people are afraid of water."

At this moment, Su Tingting couldn't help but feel fortunate that she could be assigned to a group with this person named Chu Xi. It was really a blessing in disguise. "You are really amazing. You don't look like a newcomer at all."

"The gap between newcomers and old people is not that big. You should pay attention to observation and believe in your own judgment." Yang Xiao rarely had the mood to give Su Tingting some advice.

"Hmm?" Su Tingting paused, then pointed behind Yang Xiao with a happy expression, "Look, someone is coming."

Yang Xiao immediately stood up and looked back, only to see a white light spot floating in the hazy fog, approaching them.

It was the white lantern hanging on the bow of another boat. Yang Xiao thought that the other boats must have seen the red sky lanterns they released, so they rushed over, but he didn't know which one it was.

"I hope it's Brother Kuang and Sister Xu Su." Su Tingting's face was full of expectations. On this vast lake, there is nothing more exciting than meeting teammates.

As the two boats got closer and closer, Su Tingting could already see two blurry figures standing on the opposite boat, but it was at this moment that Yang Xiao realized something was wrong.

He grabbed the pole and began to try to change the course, while ordering Su Tingting, "Quick, go and put out our lanterns!"

After doing all this, another boat in the mist gradually became clear. First, a big white lantern broke through the mist, and then a black-sailed boat that was almost identical to the one under their feet.

But at this moment, Su Tingting's heartbeat stopped, because the two people standing on this boat were not their teammates at all, but two people dressed as servants.

The two were wet all over, and their hair was dripping with water, as if they had just been fished out of the water. What was even more terrifying was that the one in the front was the servant who had drowned not long ago, Sun Amao!

Su Tingting still remembered this name. Not long ago, they almost had a conflict with the servants in the mansion because of this person's death.

The person behind was obviously dead for a longer time. The whole person was swollen with blisters, his skin was swollen, and his face was blurred.

The two bodies just stood there on the boat, motionless.

Under Yang Xiao's control, the two ships finally avoided each other. Afterwards, they couldn't help but be afraid. If they were a step later, they might have collided.

Yang Xiao swallowed hard. The moment the two ships passed each other, he could see clearly that the ship on the opposite side was his teammate's ship. There was an incense burner on the bow, and miscellaneous items were scattered on the ship. A short knife was inserted diagonally on the upper edge of the cabin, and bloodstains were clearly visible on it.
