Sang Que woke up from the bed again, his heartbeat became stronger, his breathing became faster, and the ticking sound of the clock kept ringing in his ears.
She felt so weak that she could not move. It took her a long time to finally sit up. She was still in the bedroom of her own courtyard in Wangshan City, and there was still no sign of Xia Chan and Xuan Yu.
Her arm was burning with pain. Sang Que pulled up her sleeves. There were many scratches on her pale arm, with blood flowing out. The flesh was turned inside out and was slowly healing. The flowing blood smelled of rice wine.
The healing made her mouth dry and gave her a thirst for blood.
The ghosts I saw when I was knocking on the bowl at the intersection just now were not illusions. The ticking sound in my ears showed that the power of recovery had been triggered and was now in the countdown to the side effects.
The slow healing of the wound and the smell of rice wine emanating from the blood showed that the evil power in her body was not completely gone.
Sangque resisted the irritation brought by the ticking sound, thought calmly for a moment, and soon came up with a bold guess.
After listening to Kou Yushan's words, Sang Que connected all the things in an instant and made a reasonable inference.
The correct content is in %六九% book'bar!
This is all the storyteller can do. What really drives the whole thing forward is the ghost troupe.
The tranquilizing soup can allow her to fall directly into a deep sleep without having nightmares or attracting nightmare ghosts.
After regaining his strength, Sang Que got off the bed, took his knife, put on his bow and arrow, and left the yard again.
Sang Que glanced at the palm of her right hand. The talisman money was not omnipotent. In the nightmare, she could not feel its existence. Now she could only rely on herself.
Now that the resuscitation has been triggered, even if the twelve-hour countdown has passed, she cannot mark a new time point in her dream, which means that she can no longer use the resuscitation ability in her dream.
If you die in a dream, you will die in reality.
It is better not to take any risks and do not rely on the curse. Just think of yourself as an ordinary person with only one life. Be extra careful when you go out next time. Try to find Yu Da and go to the Evil Suppression Bureau to see if there are other people trapped in the nightmare of ghosts.
Storyteller! A chill rushed straight to his head, causing Sangque to tremble all over.
Can this part of the curse power resist the dream ghost? She must have died once when she encountered the group of ghosts knocking on the bowl just now. The power of resurgence was triggered, which made her unable to judge whether it was the curse that made her "alive" again, or the resurgence.
This time she planned to change direction and take another route and go to the Evil Suppression Bureau first.
The strong sense of uneasiness made Sang Que unable to control his frenzy. He clenched his long sword tightly and wanted to chop to vent his anger.
But later on, Kou Yushan forgot everything about her biological mother and her meeting with him.
How could it be so silent? Only she was trapped in it, Xia Chan, Xuan Yu, and even Hei Lu were not trapped in the nightmare, so she couldn't see them from here?
Sang Que was stunned. Could it be that people who were in the dream at the same time might not see it? Are dreams divided or layered? Before Sang Que could speak, Kou Yushan swallowed hard. He was always calm, but his face turned pale at this moment, as if he had encountered something extremely terrifying.
"It seems that Wangshan City will not be peaceful tonight. Granny Zhuang must be the source of the nightmare. She was chosen by them from the beginning. If things go wrong, the whole city will be in a nightmare now. We can't delay any longer. We must leave the nightmare quickly. Otherwise, if something happens outside, we won't even have the ability to resist. Even if we can wake up by then, it will be too late!"
Granny Zhuang has been managing the files at the Suppression of Evils Bureau for many years and remembers many files of strange cases. Letting the dream ghost parasitize in Granny Zhuang's nightmares is simply an unsolvable existence.
Sang Que called out softly, and Kou Yushan turned his head suddenly and looked over. When he saw her, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
Sang Que looked around and after seeing nothing unusual, he flipped over the wall.
She was probably trapped in a nightmare of a nightmare.
When Sang Que thought of this, she couldn't help becoming flustered and irritated. She took a deep breath and told herself to calm down again.
What about the others? What's going on out there?
Sang Que remembered that Yu Da had told her that if one fell into a ghost's dream, one must find the source of the dream and break it in order to wake up.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I remember it now. I remember everything!"
After he was caught by the evil bride, he thought he was doomed, but then Granny Zhuang came out of the house and stopped Wan Xiangtou.
This sentence shocked Sang Que and he opened his eyes in disbelief. Was Kou Yushan talking about Wan Xiangtou? Did he still remember this incident?
Kou Yushan was seen sitting behind the main entrance of his yard, looking at the closed door with horror, his whole body shaking uncontrollably.
No matter what happens, as long as Xia Chan is by her side, he will never abandon her. Her top priority now is to save herself and find a way to wake up.
Sang Que clenched his sword tightly, trying to suppress the panic in his heart. The more protagonists and supporting characters the storyteller had in his story, the more he would be eroded by the strange power. If he wanted to include more than 30,000 people in the city in the story, he would probably die within a quarter of an hour.
Wan Xiangtou probably didn't intend to kill him from the beginning, so he just knocked him unconscious. When he woke up, he was standing at the entrance of Cuiliu Lane, feeling dazed and completely unaware of what had happened, and continued to do what he was supposed to do.
Just like in Tianliang City, the mother used the beginning of the story to influence Chengge's plan.
At that time, Yan Daozi wanted to sacrifice the entire village. Sang Que learned about it by eavesdropping on the conversation between Yan Daozi and Wan Xiangtou in the hidden world. Afterwards, he told Kou Yushan everything, including the fact that Wan Xiangtou had controlled a strange bride.
So they are certainly not caught up in the storyteller’s tale right now.
Just imagine, all the strange cases that happened in the city for many years appeared in Wangshan City at this moment because of Granny Zhuang's memory. How many of the more than 30,000 people in the city can survive? No wonder when I went to see Granny Zhuang yesterday, she refused to go to bed no matter what. Although she was demented, her subconscious was still on guard against this matter. Unfortunately, no one took her words seriously.
It's a pity that Granny Zhuang's son turned out to be Wan Xiangtou of the ghost opera troupe. Granny Zhuang suddenly fell ill, and her nightmare directly dragged the whole city into her dreams, which must be related to Wan Xiangtou.
After the incident in Tianliang City ended, she and her mother analyzed it together. Using the power of storytellers to push events forward was the only way to bring together related people and accelerate related events to happen in advance at the appropriate time.
"Mrs. Zhuang's son is back. He is the man you met in Heishan Village!"
However, a person who is cursed cannot be killed directly by a dream ghost before the curse is completed.
Kou Yushan didn't remember how he was rescued later, but when he saw the bridal sedan and the bright red, he remembered what important thing he had forgotten during this period of time.
If the ghost troupe does not lay the groundwork and make detailed plans, the storyteller will not be able to influence the troupe members to take the initiative to do these things.
And in the dream, everyone will become ordinary people. Faced with the ghosts in the nightmare, they have almost no ability to resist and can only avoid them as much as possible.
What did the ghost troupe want to do? Massacre the city? No, the whole thing was not without flaws. Even now, when I think about it, there were flaws everywhere. But why didn't anyone in the evil suppression department suspect anything? Not to mention Wei Ziyan, how could Yu Da, who dealt with all kinds of strange cases every day and was extremely sensitive and cautious about evil spirits, completely ignore the abnormality of Granny Zhuang?
Sang Que felt that there was a force here that interfered with everyone's judgment before the incident happened. This force was very similar to...
Let what was supposed to happen happen in advance, make all coincidences appear natural, and let all flaws be cleverly ignored.
During the Gui Dynasty, her thinking ability improved rapidly.
After that, Sang Que never tried to find out how much Kou Yushan remembered about other things.
At this moment, there was suddenly a noise coming from Kou Yushan's yard next door. Sang Que was shocked and immediately turned back and climbed up to the top of the wall in a few steps.
Kou Yushan calmed down and continued, "It was about ten days ago. I can't remember the exact time. One morning I went to visit Granny Zhuang and heard at her door..."
Kou Yushan glanced towards the gate of the courtyard. There was still a bridal sedan parked outside. That was the thing he feared the most in the past. It was because of the appearance of the ghost sedan that his mother had to ride in the ghost sedan instead of his eldest sister. He and his eldest sister escaped and almost died in the wild.
Kou Yushan also used his hands and feet to move away from the gate, turned around, got up and ran to Sang Que, "Where have you been? Why didn't I see you just now? I went to your yard to look for you!"
If she accidentally attracted one, there would be no one else in Cui Liu Lane, and her nightmare would not drag innocent people into her dream. As long as she could be discovered in time, it would be enough for her to die alone.
"Uncle Yushan!"
Kou Yushan quickly repeated to Sang Que what happened that day. After hearing the noise in the yard, he was noticed by the people in the yard. When he turned around, he saw a bright red wedding dress. It was a strange bride wearing a red veil, a wedding dress but bare feet.
Sang Que looked at the slowly healing wound on her wrist again. Back then in Ming Mansion, Cun Yuan swallowed the old monk's cursed heart, so that she also possessed some of the abilities of the immortal curse. The wound can heal faster by consuming her own qi and blood.
What the outcome will be depends on how the people involved act.
Just like an open ending to a story, which creates infinite possibilities, the story has no formal beginning, no set process, no fixed ending, and it is not certain who will win or lose.
No matter what the purpose of the ghost troupe is, she must leave the dream as soon as possible, otherwise if something happens outside that causes her body to die or be destroyed, she will still die even if she wakes up.
Sang Que's eyes were determined. "Uncle Yushan, just stay here and don't go anywhere. I'm going to find Granny Zhuang!"
