Nightmare Attack

Chapter 132 Fire
"This..." Li Lu's expression brightened. Although there is a high probability that the ghosts in the mission will not kill one after another, it would be great if someone is willing to accompany her.

She did not agree hastily, but pursed her lips tightly and looked at Chen Xiaomeng with expectant eyes.

Chen Xiaomeng stood up slowly.

Attitude says it all.

"Then I would like to thank Miss Xiaolongnu," Li Lu leaned forward, her eyes shining brightly.

Chen Xiaomeng said lightly: "You don't have to thank me, thank you Mr. Yin." Then he looked at Jiang Cheng with a very natural look, and said with a slight smile: "After all, Mr. Yin is such a gentleman, he won't look at us If the two women take risks, he will also accompany us to ensure our safety."

"Am I right, Mr. Yin?" Chen Xiaomeng blinked.

"Of course," Jiang Cheng straightened his chest, pretending to be powerful.

Then Jiang Cheng stepped forward and removed the wooden stick that was holding the door, and then opened the door. The "swish" night wind blew in gusts, blowing on the person's face like a knife.

I didn't expect the temperature difference between day and night here to be so large.

Jiang Cheng covered his face with one hand, held the door with the other to prevent it from slamming, turned his head and said quickly to Chen Xiaomeng and Li Lu, "Hurry up, don't go far, I will help you keep an eye on the movement around you."

"Are you standing here helping us?" Chen Xiaomeng's voice suddenly rose.

"Otherwise?" Jiang Cheng's expression was very innocent, and he seemed to feel unsafe after speaking, and took a half step back.

Li Lu was in a hurry and didn't have time to worry about these things, so she wrapped her clothes tightly and walked out quickly.

Next was Chen Xiaomeng. She glanced at Jiang Cheng and left with Li Lu.

The two of them didn't go far, but came to a place covered by grass. This yard should have been abandoned for a long time, and the grass was almost half the height of a person.

Jiang Cheng exhausted his eyes in the direction of the two of them, and finally saw Li Lu, who had turned into a shadow in the night, shivered a few times, then squatted down, leaving only one head higher than the weeds, exposed outside.

Chen Xiaomeng stood about 3 meters away from Li Lu.

It is in the middle of Li Lu and Jiang Cheng.

Presumably, she has already made a plan. Once something happens, she can turn around and go back to the room. Li Lu, who is inconvenient to move, is the best target for ghosts.

"Ok?"

For about half a minute, Chen Xiaomeng suddenly made a sound, and she stared at a certain location, as if she had discovered something.

Li Lu, who was unable to move, was already highly nervous. After hearing Chen Xiaomeng's voice, she froze and her body trembled violently.

"Happened. What happened?" Li Lu asked anxiously.

After Jiang Cheng heard Chen Xiaomeng's voice, he didn't immediately look at where the latter was staring. He continued to look at Chen Xiaomeng, squinting his eyes slightly.

Until he heard Li Lu's exclamation.

"Fire!!"

She didn't suppress her voice, which caused her voice to be very harsh in the silent night, followed by rapid noises from the room behind her.

After a while of footsteps, Yu Man, Zhou Rong, and Pei Qian ran out one after another. Everyone gathered behind the wooden door in tacit understanding, trying to look out.

No intention of leaving the room.

Through the corner of the broken window frame, several people noticed that there was a fire in the distance, and Zhou Rong's pupils suddenly shrank, "It's the Qian Family Ancestral Hall," he said firmly.

"Why did the ancestral hall catch fire?" Pei Qian stared at the direction of the fire, and found that the fire was getting worse, and then a large area of ​​fire began to collapse.

He thought it might be that the load-bearing structure of the ancestral hall was burned and the whole thing fell down.

"It should be abandoned there, where did the fire come from?" He said to himself.

They passed by not far from the ancestral hall this morning, and found that the nearby houses were all empty, and they had also been abandoned long ago, and at this point in time they suddenly caught fire.
Chen Xiaomeng and Li Lu ran back. Li Lu's leg injury was not healed, and she was limping when she ran, but the fear on her face was very real.

Zhou Rong turned around, and his eyes slowly swept across the village. With such a big fire, there was no movement in the village.

This made him wonder whether there was anyone living in the village, or in other words, what kind of people lived here.

The next day, just after dawn, a group of people arrived in front of the burned ancestral hall of the Qian family.

Nuo Dazhu's building changed beyond recognition overnight.

Ashes and wreckage were all over the ground, and only the most primitive masonry structure remained, but at this time, the masonry was burned to the point where it was no different from black carbon.

There are also sparse flames burning around, and there are crackling sounds from time to time.

There was a wind blowing, raising a cloud of ashes.

I didn't see anyone nearby, so I don't know if the villagers didn't have time to take care of this place, or they didn't plan to have anything to do with the Qian family who was targeted by ghosts and almost exterminated.

Zhou Rong chose a relatively clean path, avoiding the brick wall that might collapse at any time, and several people walked in.

Standing in it, the ancestral hall is not as big as they imagined.

The lobby area is less than 200 square meters.

Everyone consciously spread out to search for clues. Li Lu temporarily stayed where she was because of her leg injury and limited mobility.

It is said that water and fire are ruthless, and there is a trace of grief in Yu Man's eyes. Standing here now, she seems to be in a sea of ​​flames, with heat waves surging around, and a few distorted figures looming in the sea of ​​flames.

What echoed in my ears was their heart-piercing voice.

The fire a year ago caused her to lose her best friends, as well as the man she loved the most and the man who loved her the most.

For a girl from a broken native family, it seems that it is very easy to become an alien in the eyes of her classmates. She smokes, drinks, and has tattoos and dares to fight with guys from other schools with a beer bottle.

Teachers and even the principal have given up on contacting her parents.

They all knew she had an alcoholic father and a submissive, mentally ill mother.

She didn't like to go home, and she hated the dark and cramped stairwell full of small advertisements.

And the cloudy and helpless eyes of the mother.

She hates it all.

But all of these did not prevent her from being a student with excellent grades.

Not very good either, top ten in the class.

When it is good, it can be ranked in the 4th or 5th position.

But for the "thugs" who fought with her, it was definitely an excellent achievement.

They couldn't figure it out, how could this girl who skipped classes with them, surfed the Internet, played video games, and fought in groups with them, be able to study so well?

Where does she have time to study?

It was clear that they fought together, skipped class together, and were caught by the academic affairs director and forced to stand in front of the principal's office together.

They would never know what was going on in the mind of this girl who was chewing gum indifferently while listening to the old principal.
