Chapter 43 Nightmare

As soon as Wan Li entered the old town, he felt that the situation was very strange.

In broad daylight, there was no movement in the entire town, and there was not a single pedestrian on the street. There was no smoke, no chickens and dogs, and no birds or animals approaching. It was like a dead city.

When he was transformed into a boulder by Master Long, he once heard Hong Haohao mention some nightmare magic. On the way from New Town to Old Town, he had been thinking about what nightmare magic would be like. Only now did he know. The nightmare spell puts the entire city into a deep sleep.

Da da da—

The rapid footsteps were his, but he was really not used to such a quiet environment, which made him feel a little flustered, and he always thought someone was following him. After all, people are social animals, especially those who are used to living in big cities. Now walking alone on an empty street, the feeling of uneasiness and fear is almost natural.

Wan Li endured the uncomfortable feeling of emptiness in his heart and walked step by step along the main street of the town. He saw that the doors and windows of every house were closed, and none of the shops were open. As expected, everyone was asleep. If it weren't for the midday sun shining on his head, he would have thought all this was just a dream.

He stood in the street and thought for a while, and decided to go back to the hotel where he was staying to have a look, because under normal circumstances, when other places are closed, police stations, hospitals and hotels will not be closed. . The hotel he stayed in was the largest hotel in Hongqing Town. Although it was a bit far from the town hospital, it was opposite the police station, so he could go into these two houses to check out the situation.

First, the police station.

The doors of all the houses in the town were closed. Only the door of the police station was wide open. Under the wind, the door hit the wall, making a slight collision sound, which was particularly harsh in the dead silence. Every sound was heard. It's like a blow to the heart.

However, although the door of the police station was open, there was no sign of anyone at the door. From a distance, Wan Li felt that it was not a house but a trap waiting there, full of malicious temptation.

He gritted his teeth and walked in warily. After entering, he found that there was no one in the entire police station, and the only company he had was the sound of footsteps coming from the empty room.

Dong-dong-dong--

What's going on? Was the policeman attacked, or was Sima Nan using his wealth and power to divert the policemen on duty? Or is this town not sleeping, but no one at all?

Thinking of this, he immediately ran quietly to the hotel across the street.

There were no obstacles in the middle of the street, which gave Wan Li no place to hide as he walked through. He didn't understand why he was hiding, or what he was trying to avoid. He just felt that the dead silence made him particularly nervous, and he felt like a thorn in his back, as if someone was spying on him.

His whole body was tense. He first **** the fishing rod box on his back and tightened his grip on the baseball bat as a weapon. Then he slowly walked to the door of the hotel and peeked inside.

There is usually a doorman by the gate, but of course there is not one at the moment, and there is no one in the hall.

Wan Li composed himself, then pushed the door open and entered.

Squeak--

The door closed behind him. Although it was usually like this, it felt particularly scary at this time. Wanli tried to ignore his uneasiness and walked to the front desk.

At the front desk, there were the first people Wan Li saw since entering Old Town, two people to be exact. This scene gave him an indescribable feeling in his heart, a little happy and a little nervous. The two waiters, a man and a woman, were sitting on chairs with their heads lowered, as if they were asleep. But since he couldn't hear their breathing, Wan Li couldn't be sure.

He walked around to the front desk. Because he didn't know what nightmare magic was, he didn't dare to touch these two people. He just leaned down and listened carefully. He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the two men breathing softly.

In this way, it is not that there is no one in the town, and the townspeople were not massacred, but they were really asleep. This nightmare spell will be automatically released after Sima Nan releases it or Ruan Zhan kills Sima Nan! The same must be true for others.

With this realization, Wan Li found the spare key to the entire hotel room from the drawer under the table. In the process of looking for the key, no matter what kind of noise he made, the sound of turning drawers, the clatter of keys, or the sound of a chair he accidentally kicked over, none of them woke up the two waiters. This made Wan Li feel, If they weren't breathing, they would be dead.

Death is the most primitive sleep!

He took the spare key and went from room to room. Since the hotel floor was covered with thick carpets, the harsh footsteps no longer followed him, but he found that it was even more unsettling. The thumping sound was still there, but he couldn't tell whether it was the sound of his heartbeat or his thoughts. hinted in.

In the open door, all kinds of people were sleeping, and they were sleeping extremely quietly. Not to mention turning over, there was no sound of snoring. They were all breathing carefully, and their eyelids did not move at all.

This is so unusual! What were they dreaming about? The same dream or different dreams? What are you dreaming about? You must know that when people are asleep, the brain is not completely dormant. Everyone dreams, and their eyes will keep moving during dreams. Why are people who have been affected by nightmare spells like wax statues, with no life except breathing? signs? Will they really wake up?

With doubts, Wan Li observed a few more people carefully and found that they were indeed not dead, but they were indeed as good as dead. This is true for everyone in the room, including Boss Sun.

What is he going to do? How can we cooperate with Ruan Zhan? He had already tried it just now, and the communication here had also lost contact with the outside world. If he wanted to convey information to Ruan Zhan, there was no reply from Ruan Zhan. He understood that Ruan Zhan might be fighting with Sima Nan at this time, so he could no longer distract him.

But can he just wait? Is this another isolated place like New Town? Maybe he should find a car and go to a neighboring town to call for help?

No, it can't be done. If that happens, things here will be exposed before Ruan Zhan can withdraw, which will be detrimental to them. Since Ruan Zhan has to face an enemy as strong as Sima Nan alone in the new town, he also has to face these problems alone in the old town. The people here must be under control. His task is much easier than that of Ruan Zhan. He only needs to protect the townspeople from physical harm and then dismantle the 'time bomb' under the calm surface.

Hong Haohao and her helpers are the time bomb. She was sent here by Sima Nan to take charge, so she is the one he wants to deal with! But where has she hidden?

Wanli thought as he returned to the front desk and put the key back. But when he just opened the drawer, a hand suddenly stretched out from beside him and held down his right wrist!

He was startled, not expecting such a situation to happen where everyone was sleeping. When he looked up, a strange man's face appeared in front of him!

In an instant, he reacted and wanted to swing the bat in self-defense. But he forgot that he was in a narrow front desk and couldn't use it at all. The wooden stick bounced back from the wall before he could lift it, and at the same time, the other hand grabbed his left wrist!

Instinctively, he took a step back, stood in a triangle with the two people who pulled his arms, and threw the two people forward with all his strength.

The two people were thrown violently by Wan Li, and they hit the front desk with a loud bang, but they held on to Wan Li's wrist tightly, causing Wan Li to stagger. . Seeing this, Wan Li simply took a step forward, raised his foot and kicked the side of the knee of the person on his right.

His kick was accurate and hard, causing the man to cry out in pain and instinctively let go of his hand. Seeing that his right hand was freed, Banri punched the man on the left who was pretending to be a waitress! However, the moment he hit the man, he felt a pain in the back of his head and fell to the ground unconscious!

Before passing out, he felt a red shadow flash in front of him.

"Hong Hao!" Wan Li shouted, waking up from a coma.

He opened his eyes and found himself sitting in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel. In other words, he was tied to a wooden chair and thrown in the middle of the hall.

"Am I that good? You still miss me when you pass out?" a woman said, with a tone that was three parts teasing and one part contemptuous.

Wan Li didn't need to look to know that the person coming was Hong Haohao. "No woman can look so good in red." He raised his head and saw Hong Haohao sitting on the sofa opposite him, with an elegant and seductive posture.

What he praised just now is true.

This woman is a natural beauty. Although her current physical body is no longer the original body with a beautiful face, but Zhang Xue who is blind in one eye and missing an arm, Zhang Xue is also beautiful. , and the temperament that comes from within is still there, still so graceful, charming and enchanting. In order to cover up the defects of her eyes, she wore sunglasses, and in order to cover up the stiffness of her prosthetic limbs, she kept her body sideways, but this outfit and posture gave her a mysterious sexiness.

No wonder Sima Nan keeps her by his side. Even if he doesn't love her, a woman like her will embody a man's greatest sense of superiority.

"You are really good at talking, you are worthy of being a psychiatrist." Hong Haohao was very impressed by Wanli's praise.

"My ability to please women has nothing to do with my career. Psychology is a very serious science, please don't confuse it with others." Wan Li tried to move, but a pain immediately spread throughout his body, especially in the back of his head. The stinging sensation made him scream softly. He remembered that he had been hit **** the back of the head by an unknown person, and then passed out. He thought it was Hong Haohao. When he lowered his head again, he saw that all his clothes had been taken off. The other person only compassionately kept a pair of underwear and a pair of socks for him, and the pain all over his body came from the rope tied to his naked body.

I don’t know what kind of material the rope is made of. It is very rough and covered with tiny barbs. When he moves, it feels like there are thousands of small needles pricking him! The predicament made him curse under his breath.

Seeing Wan Li's appearance, Hong Hao laughed so hard that his branches trembled with laughter.

"That's not bad. I've always wanted to find you, but I haven't been able to find you. I didn't expect that it would take no effort at all." Wan Li said pretending to be relaxed. Although the back of his head hurt terribly every time he turned his neck, he still looked around.

In addition to him and Hong Haohao, there were seven or eight men who looked like thugs in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel. He recognized them as the people he had fought with in the alley, including the poor thief, the waitress he had just impersonated. The thief's face was now bruised and swollen, as he had just beaten him, and he was still wearing women's clothing.

"Find me?" Hong Hao laughed, "Thank you for your ability to speak out, how can anyone look for someone like a dog behind closed doors, and you are still the same dog!"

"As long as the result is good, the process doesn't matter. The important thing is that I can talk to you here now."

"The dialogue is between equals. Why do you rely on this now? On this?" Hong smiled and raised the fishing rod box in his hand.

Wan Li's expression changed.

In that box is a blood-wood sword, which Ruan Zhan left for him for self-defense. It is a rare treasure in the Taoist world and must not fall into the hands of people with ulterior motives.

"You shouldn't be surprised. If you can't save your clothes, can you still keep this treasure?" Hong Haohao was very satisfied with the surprise and nervousness on Wan Li's face. She took a look at Wan Li's strong, young and powerful body, and a desire arose in her heart. She didn't want to kill him immediately, but wanted to hide him in a place and become her pet.

Isn’t she Sima Nan’s pet? Why couldn't she have one? Sima Nan had never treated her badly, but he didn't take it seriously either. Besides, he doesn't like women and rarely wants her. And she is a mature woman, so she should be accompanied by a man like Wan Li. There is nothing wrong with this, but will Sima Nan forgive her if he finds out? He was a man who couldn't tolerate any betrayal, and those who betrayed him died miserably!

Hong Haohao hesitated, but Wan Li on the side suddenly smiled and said, "I will get the Bloodwood Sword back. There is nothing wrong with leaving it with you first."

"What if I destroy it?"

"You don't dare. Sima Nan wants to get it. If you let the Blood Wood Sword be even slightly damaged, will he let you go?"

"Don't be so smart!"

"How about we make a bet? You destroy the sword now. If you dare, I will do whatever you say!" Wan Li smiled handsomely, but his eyes were full of provocation.

This look made Hong Haohao suddenly furious.

She opened the box fiercely and took out the bloodwood sword, but as soon as her hand touched the hilt of the sword, she screamed and threw the sword to the ground as if she was burned.

Wan Li on the side was so distressed that his heart twisted. He didn't feel sorry for Hong Haohao, but for the sword that fell to the ground. But he was afraid that Hong Haohao would see his feelings again, so he endured not to show his emotions on his face.

As for Hong Haohao, she forgot that although she had a human body and could move like a human being, she had borrowed someone else's body after all. Although the blood wood sword that could automatically sense evil spirits could not be used, it was no longer a pure soul body. No matter what she is like, it still hurts her.

When she looked up, she saw that Wanli was still smiling, which made her even more angry.

Why can't this man be as gentle and pampering to me as he is to Yue Xiaoxia? Why was he looking at me with a playful look on his face?

"Come here and break the sword into pieces for me!" She was a little angry and shouted at the thugs around her.

The people hesitated.

They didn't know that the Blood Wood Sword could only harm evil spirits and could not do anything to people. They just saw that 'Zhang Xue' was so afraid of this sword, and these outsiders were so desperately fighting for it, and they still Thinking it was something that could harm people, no one dared to come up for a while.

"Come here quickly, or you won't get anything good to eat!" Hong Hao became stern.

A few people looked at each other, and finally two people came over at the signal of their boss.

With nervous expressions and wrapping their hands with their sleeves, the two men each held one end of the sword and looked at the furious beauty blankly. They didn't know what to do next, and they felt that the sword was extremely hot to the touch.

"Look what I'm doing! Break it!" Hong Haohao's face turned pale, he stared at the Blood Wood Sword for a while, then suddenly shouted, and then took a step back as if he was a little scared.

The two thugs looked at each other and had no choice but to pull **** the bloodwood sword!
