Nightmare Apostle

"We have invited a few more experts to support us. As long as a few of our guests follow my instructions tonight, everything will be safe."

"The three of you are driving the boat ahead to clear the way for the big ship. One person each from the front, left, and right will go to the center of the lake. Shifu Ke's task is much simpler. You only need to take care of the second young lady in the cabin."

"Experts have calculated that it will only take five sticks of incense to end tonight. To remind you of the time, we will prepare five drums on the shore."

"When you hear the first drum sound, you set off. The second drum sound means that you have arrived at the location and can stop the boat. The third drum sound is to tell the time and also reminds you not to get close to the big ship. If nothing happens, , will Xi appear on the ship at this time?"

"No matter what happens at this time, don't panic. You can return until the fourth tom sounds. But remember, you must return to the shore before the fifth tom sounds, otherwise you will be trapped on the lake. Never come back."

As soon as Butler Liu finished speaking, Shi Dali's dissatisfied voice rang out, "What should I do? They each have a boat. Do they want me to drive the boat back with the second young lady?"

"Haha, stay calm, Shi Fu, we will naturally be prepared." Butler Liu comforted him nicely: "We will tie up another small boat behind the big ship. When the matter is over, you can drive the small boat and leave with the other three Fu Ke. "

"By the way, we have prepared this for the four guests." Following Butler Liu's wave, several servants brought two boxes over. After opening them, there were several paper clothes inside.

"What do you mean, you still need us to pretend to be paper figures?" Kuang Hongyi's eyes widened. The last time we pretended to be paper figures left a very bad impression on him.

Butler Liu waved his hand and explained patiently: "Four guests, please don't worry. This paper coat is for your safety. My master spent a lot of money to ask several experts to work together to make it. As long as you wear it, you can't worry about it." Avoid evil spirits.”

Yang Xiao took the paper coat handed by the servant. This paper coat was very strange. Yang Xiao had never seen this style before. The inside was soft and did not feel like paper, but there were countless paper strips of different sizes stuck vertically on the outside. , the paper hangs down, and when you look at it from a distance, it looks like a piece of talisman, but there are no words on it, and there are no ghostly drawings or anything like it, it is just a strange white paper clothes.

The paper clothes were of different sizes. The servants took them out and handed them over to Yang Xiao and others one by one. It seemed that each piece was tailor-made.

Soon, with the help of their servants, Yang Xiao and the others put on the paper clothes and moved around briefly. It was okay. The paper clothes did not restrict their movement. In addition, they saved the steps of putting on makeup. They remembered that they were sewn on the clothes. There was yellow paper on his face, and Yang Xiao's right eyebrow was still aching.

At this moment, there were bursts of exclamations near the Bochu boat. Later, a middle-aged man with a tattoo on his arm came over and urged in a lame tone: "Steward Liu, Master, we can start as soon as he says it."

"Look." Su Tingting looked at the lake. I don't know when white mist appeared on the originally dark lake. The two colors were mixed together, and finally turned into a gray feeling, as if it came from another place. world.

Clenching his fingers and staring at the lake, Butler Liu's breathing quickened, "Quick, four guests, hurry up and get ready, it's about to start!"

"Wait a minute! How can we be sure that we can find the shore after the four-way drumming is over?" This is the question that Yang Xiao is most concerned about. After all, they were deceived by the red lantern last time, and they were deceived twice. This ghost mist It’s not uncommon for strange things to appear in it.

"Don't worry about this. We have already prepared it. When the fourth tom sounds, we will put on a red flag, pick up the bride's door, and bring you back."

Following Butler Liu's finger, he saw that in another busy place on the shore, several people were squatting on the ground, tying things up with ropes, and there were several long logs piled next to them.

In addition, there are some hanging red cloths, red lanterns, red lotuses and other things. Of course, the most eye-catching thing is a big red threshold. I don’t know where it was dug out. Behind the person.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

.....

The first tom is here.

The dull sound of the drum seemed to hit people's hearts directly. Yang Xiao and others no longer hesitated and boarded the ship immediately, while Shi Dali ran towards the Bochu ship alone.

As the drumming stopped, Yang Xiao and the others sailed the boat towards the lake. The fog was getting thicker and the visibility on the lake was getting worse and worse.

"Don't be too fast, wait for the big ship behind." Kuang Hongyi reminded aloud. He didn't care about Shi Dali. After all, the second young lady on the big ship was the protagonist tonight.

At this moment, Yang Xiao was also sighing in his heart. Sure enough, he was so lucky that he couldn't cross the gate of the courtyard. Although he didn't know the origin of this second young lady, he thought that her background was not bad, but he didn't expect that he would end up like this in the end. .

Su Tingting shook the pole vigorously and looked back, only to see a big red ship following closely behind, revealing a huge shadow under the cover of the fog. A big red lantern hanging under the mast was like a monster's eyes, cold and cold. watching everyone.

In the gray fog, every second became extremely difficult. Everyone had no sense of direction at all and just kept moving forward.

The moist mist slapped on her hands and face, and it was ice cold. Su Tingting gritted her teeth, but she was still shivering from the cold. She didn't know why, but... she just felt very bad, as if she was being hit by something. Spotted, nearby in the mist.

But thinking about it later, she felt that she was too nervous. After all, it was not her first time to come to the lake. She had just arrived and had not done anything strange. It made no sense that she was the only one who was caught when everyone was together.

Before, when Kuang Hongyi explained the rules and traps he had experienced in previous missions to Yang Xiao, she also listened carefully and took notes carefully. The experience she gained was to try to keep all actions consistent with Yang Xiao and Kuang Hongyi, if she could do it.

The surroundings were extremely quiet, with only the cold sound of water. Finally, they waited for the second drumbeat, and several people immediately stopped the boat.

The drumbeat came from a very far direction, dull but shocking, but gradually, Kuang Hongyi frowned, and he heard some strange sounds in this drumbeat, some sharp.

After a while, Kuang Hongyi heard it clearly. It was a faint gong sound, which was both real and fake, quite strange. The drumbeat weakened, but the gong sound became clearer and clearer.

Hearing the gong sound, Yang Xiao's hair stood up. He didn't know why, but he was sure that something must have gone wrong.

"Hmm..."

When Yang Xiao and Kuang Hongyi heard the sound and turned around, they saw Su Tingting kneeling on the boat with her hands on her stomach and a face full of pain, her forehead covered with cold sweat.
