Chapter 122 A visitor at midnight
It's late at night and the world is quiet.
The town was pitch black, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Dozens of dark shadows slowly approached the small building.
From a distance, they looked like wandering evil spirits.
The extremely light footsteps were extremely abrupt in the silence.
“Click.”
The locked door was opened from the outside with a key.
A dark shadow pushed open a tiny crack and looked inside cautiously.
The person on the bed was motionless, breathing evenly.
After observing quietly for a moment, the black shadow waved outside.
Another dark figure came over and whispered, "How are they? Are they unconscious?"
The shadow from before nodded.
"Then I'll go get someone."
A moment later, the dark shadows filed in, impatient and hurried.
All the doors were opened like this, and as expected, everyone was sleeping very soundly and was not woken up by the sound of so many footsteps coming in and out.
"Tie them up and move them away." said a tall and strong black figure.
Someone came in and searched all the backpacks in the room.
Other people walked into the room, tied up the limbs of the people lying on the bed tightly, and then one person lifted the feet and one person lifted the head, and moved everyone out one after another and put them into several rickshaws.
Someone got on the car and drove towards the back mountain.
The courtyard returned to silence.
At this moment, someone in a car frowned slightly, but upon closer inspection, it seemed as if his eyebrows had never moved.
The tricycle stopped at the door of a larger warehouse, and someone came over to move the people in the car out one by one.
"Women are on the second floor, children are on the first floor, and the men are still in the old place."
"Bang!"
"Hey, be gentle, what if you break it?"
"Oh, sorry, this is too heavy and my hand slipped."
After everything was moved, they locked everyone up with chains as thick as their arms.
"Hey, aren't these two kids tied up anymore?"
"Well, what can two kids do? No need, let's go."
Upstairs, two women were placed on two large beds, their hands and feet tied with ropes.
One person tied it up and wanted to take the opportunity to touch it a few times, but the other person opened his hand.
"Go, hand over your things, don't think about eating for free. Get out of here."
The man touched his hurt hand and walked out with a sullen look on his face.
Downstairs, two people stood in front of the lying child, one of them put his hand on the other's shoulder and said with a smile, "How is it? Brother, isn't it all done? I told you that you were too cautious. If it weren't for me, this duck in your mouth would have flown away."
The other man frowned, pushed his hand away, and looked at the men again in silence. He found that there was nothing wrong and they were all sleeping soundly. Only then did he feel relieved and a smile appeared on his face.
"Let's go back and rest."
"Hey, we've got such a big harvest this time, why don't we have a banquet tonight? Otherwise, the brothers will be dissatisfied."
The man pondered for a moment, agreed, "Okay!" and walked outside.
When the others heard the news, they cheered.
"Brother, why don't you leave?"
"My mouth is watering just thinking about those two upstairs. I want to go play with them first."
"Aren't you tired after not sleeping all night? Come back after the banquet. I'll be with you then."
"Yeah, let's go back to sleep."
The two men walked out of the warehouse, closed the door, and locked it with a big lock.
Hearing the footsteps gradually fading away, a man quickly opened his eyes and tiptoed upstairs.
--------------------
Half an hour ago.
In the small building.
A man suddenly woke up, gasping for breath.
It turned out to be a nightmare.
He turned over, pushed the person next to him away with disgust, and prepared to continue sleeping.
Just as he closed his eyes, he suddenly opened them again.
Huh? Isn't the person next to me supposed to be on night watch? Why isn't it even three o'clock yet?
He fumbled for the modified electronic watch beside his pillow, picked it up and turned it on.
03:24!
It's already past three o'clock, and this guy hasn't gotten up yet? The last night watchman didn't come to call him?
wrong!
His confused mind suddenly cleared up, and then he smelled the fragrance in the air.
Feeling the anxiety roaring in his body, he was extremely panicked.
Why is there such a strange fragrance here?!
He nudged the people around him: "Wake up! Hey! Captain!"
There was no reaction, as if he was fast asleep.
There must be something wrong with this scent!
Then how come he is okay?
Is it because he was controlled by the tree before and has become immune to these things?
What about the others?!
He jumped out of bed and rushed out without even having time to put on his shoes.
When he reached the third floor, he found that all the rooms were locked. He was very anxious, but he didn't dare to knock on the door loudly.
After thinking about it, he ran back to his room, climbed out of the window, then jumped up with all his strength and grabbed the windowsill of the upstairs room.
Thank God the window was open!
He carefully climbed in, rushed to the bed, and shook the person on the bed.
"Sister! Sister! Wake up!"
Lu Ming woke up in a daze, feeling dizzy and weak all over.
"Aze? What's wrong with me?"
She asked in a low voice while trying to sit up, but found it very difficult. She immediately realized that she must have been infected!
"Don't you smell the fragrance? I think it's this fragrance that's causing it!"
"Xiaoyue! Xiaoyue, wake up!"
The person next to him also didn't react, breathing evenly, as if he was fast asleep.
Lu Ming was worried and asked, "Where's Gu Chao? Did he faint too?"
Not hearing a response, Lu Ming's heart sank. Oh no, if she was able to wake up because of her fifth-level physique, and Aze was able to wake up because of his resistance, then it means that no one else may be able to wake up.
She actually thought that Zhang Rong, who was determined to drive them away, was unkind, while Zhang Yao was a kind and enthusiastic person.
Unexpectedly, none of them are good!
Now, those people in town might come over at any time!
What on earth do they want to do?!
What the hell is this place?!
Lu Ming told himself to calm down while struggling to get up, opened the door, and went to other rooms with Aze to call for help.
However, no one responded, and Qin Ye, who was keeping watch downstairs, also fell on the sofa.
It seems that their methods are very meticulous. By the time someone realizes something is wrong, they may have already been tricked.
This is bad!
At this time, they saw someone approaching from the corridor window on the second floor.
They are coming!
Lu Ming calmed his pounding heart and whispered to Aze, "We can't rescue everyone right away, and we don't know if they have any backup plans. It would be unwise to alert them now. We can only pretend to be unconscious and see what they are up to. We'll act accordingly when the time comes. Remember, don't act rashly unless it's absolutely necessary or I tell you not to. Do you understand?"
Aze nodded heavily, "I understand, sister, you have to be careful."
Lu Ming touched Aze's head, "You too!"
The footsteps were getting closer and closer to the small building.
"Go back quickly!"
"good!"
Just as the two of them locked the door and went back to bed, the main door of the small building was already opened.
