Nightmare Attack

Chapter 156 Darkroom
"That Yuman"

Jiang Cheng paused, then said calmly: "There is a high probability that she was controlled by the village chief, or she may have died."

It is very common for teammates to die in nightmares, but most of them are caused by ghosts. It is rare to be injured by NPCs in missions like Man.

Chen Xiaomeng didn't want to guess what would happen to Yu Man if she fell into the hands of the village head and others. She even hoped that Yu Man would die before she was caught.

"Don't think so much," came Jiang Cheng's voice, "It's better to think about others than yourself when you have time. No matter what happens to Yu Man, that's already a fact, and you and I can't change it."

"If you don't want to end up like her, cheer up, find clues, and get out of here as soon as possible."

Chen Xiaomeng's behavior just now was based on empathy with Yu Man as a woman. After a brief hesitation, a trace of tenacity returned to her face, "Let's go in," she said in a low voice.

Holding the iron plate in his hand, Jiang Cheng was the first to sneak into the secret door shortly.

Chen Xiaomeng followed behind him.

The space inside was very narrow, and the two could only move forward with their bodies bent.

But also because of this, Jiang Cheng, who was in charge of opening the way, was not so nervous.

He judged that Li Lu would not choose to ambush here.

After turning a few turns, the two kept walking up. Jiang Cheng silently counted the number of steps until they reached the end of the stairs.

There is a flap on the top of the head, and there is a simple handle bent from iron wire on the flap.

Judging by the number of steps, it is now on the third floor of the hotel.

Both of them realized that behind this flap should be Qian Jianxiu's darkroom.

Success or failure is here.

Jiang Cheng held the handle with his hand and looked back at Chen Xiaomeng. Chen Xiaomeng nodded to him, indicating that he was ready.

After taking a deep breath, Jiang Cheng flipped open the flap extremely quickly, stepped out from the exposed hole, and immediately took a step sideways to give way to the hole.

Chen Xiaomeng then appeared.

Although the room was very dark, Jiang Cheng immediately recognized that it was not a dark room, but Room 307 where they lived before.

This secret door was built under the wooden table, and it was very concealed. Once it was closed, it was difficult to see the flaws standing in the room.

A chill appeared in the hearts of the two at the same time.

Who would have thought that there was a secret passage hidden in the room they lived in. If the shop owner led someone out suddenly after they were asleep, the consequences would be disastrous.

At the same time, Jiang Cheng also figured out another incident that happened.

No wonder the shop owner Qian Jianshe came to Room 307 with a knife when he noticed someone was outside the door. It turned out that he was not only suspicious of them, but also to confirm whether the secret passage was exposed.

The bloody footprints disappeared here.

Jiangcheng Chen Xiaomeng very tacitly checked under the bed, closet, bathroom and other places where people could hide easily, but found nothing.

When the door was opened, there was still the lonely candlestick at the end of the corridor outside the door.

The position of the candlestick is rather strange, it is not up and down in the center of the wall, which also leads to a very limited lighting effect.

Behind the wall at the end is the dark room where Qian Jianxiu lives.

Chen Xiaomeng's eyes became strange.

The two walked cautiously towards the end of the corridor, one in front of the other.

Chen Xiaomeng, who kept a distance of one meter from Jiangcheng, was always paying attention to the movement around her. In her eyes, the door next to her might open at any moment, and someone rushed out with a knife.

Until the two of them reached the wall at the end.

The wall was dark, and even with candlelight lighting, it still gave people a feeling of uneasiness. There seemed to be a dark wind coming through the wall, and Chen Xiaomeng swallowed subconsciously.

Jiang Cheng found the gap in the secret door on the wall, and with a light push of his hand, the secret door opened a crack.

This really made them breathe a sigh of relief.

What they were most worried about was that they couldn't open the secret door. They found all the clues, but all their previous efforts were wasted because they couldn't open the door. It is estimated that both of them would vomit blood with anger.

Jiang Cheng grabbed the gap in the secret door with one hand, and slowly exerted force with his arm.

The weight of the secret door was beyond imagination, and he didn't want to make too much noise, so after making the gap bigger, Jiang Cheng cautiously moved closer to the crack of the door and looked in.

It was very dark inside, and the white candle that Zhou Rong once described was gone, and he could only vaguely see some vague dark outlines, which looked like furniture.

When his eyes scanned for a week, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a cylindrical thing standing behind the secret door, about half the height of a person, like a high chair.

only.
Just when he concentrated his eyes, trying to see what it was, a cold light flashed in the darkness, and Jiang Cheng fell backwards at the very moment.

Immediately afterwards, a cold dagger appeared at the place where Jiang Cheng's eyes had been.

If he had been slower for half a second, the dagger would have sunk into his eye socket.

One blow failed, the dagger was quickly withdrawn, and then the secret door that had opened a gap closed with a "bang".

All this happened too fast, by the time Chen Xiaomeng reacted and rushed up, the secret door had been closed and the gap could not be found.

"Bastard!" Chen Xiaomeng kicked the secret door.

The thickness of the secret door was unimaginable to them, and it didn't even tremble.

Jiang Cheng immediately got up.

There is no doubt that they were tricked by Li Lu again.

The cylindrical thing behind the secret door just now is Li Lu hiding there, waiting to ambush them.

He was still thinking just now, Li Lu has been cautious all the way, so how could she make the mistake of leaving them a secret door? It turned out to be another plot.

This time the secret door is completely closed.

The mechanism to open the secret door may not be difficult to find, but it needs to consume the time they lack the most.

A few seconds after the secret door closed, what worried them most finally happened.

"buzz"

Jiang Cheng and Chen Xiaomeng felt a "click" in their hearts at the same time.

door appeared.

The pale light flickered away, and the iron door appeared in Qian Jianxiu's dark room.

In a way, this game is over.

Li Lu is the final winner.

She will also receive all rewards without a doubt.

But what Jiang Cheng and Chen Xiaomeng can do now is to enter the dark room before the door disappears, and return to their own world through the door.

The reward is that you don't have to think about it, it's great to survive.

Just as the two of them stood in front of the door to study where the mechanism to open the door was, they suddenly heard a loud "bang".

There was a loud bang from downstairs, and it sounded like a door had been slammed open with force.

Then there was a burst of dense and disorderly footsteps, rushing in instantly.

"Fourth!!"

A heart-piercing roar erupted downstairs, shaking Jiang Cheng's eardrums.

It was the voice of the village chief of Xiaoshijian Village. If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, Jiang Cheng would never have imagined that the village chief in his sixtieth year would have such explosive power.

Apparently, he had discovered Qian Jianshe's body.

　Thanks to Er Jingliang for the reward!
