The stars are shining brightly without any dark clouds blocking their view, which indicates that tomorrow will be a sunny day with clear skies.
The whole town was silent. The crowd had long since dispersed, and the vampires that had previously mingled among the crowd had also disappeared.
The town that was bustling with people during the day now looked like a dead town.
"I saw them passing by over there." Zou Ming whispered in Ye Zhou's ear as they went out together.
Ye Zhou knew that the "they" in Zou Ming's words were the vampires that ruled this town.
The house they were assigned was not far from the castle, but because they didn't know in advance where they would be assigned, they just let Cao'er wait in the house she was assigned, and they would go to pick her up when the time came.
So before going to the castle, they had to take a detour to pick up Cao'er.
They will leave this town immediately after finding Sarah.
Thinking of Sarah's appearance in the telescope, Ye Zhou wished he could go to the system to replace a photon cannon and raze the town to the ground with one shot.
Cao'er changed her clothes and waited at the door early. As soon as she heard footsteps outside, she immediately pushed open the half-open door.
Although the employees will not age or get sick, the body's metabolism will not stop. Cao'er's hair has now reached between her shoulders and waist. She imitated Feng Ling and used a rubber band to tie her hair into a small ball at the back of her head.
However, every time Ye Zhou saw her with this hairstyle, he was worried about her hairline.
Fortunately, they are in a dimension that does not belong to them, otherwise Cao'er would probably be half bald before middle age.
"Let's go." Ye Zhou said in a low voice.
They did not walk towards the castle in a swaggering manner on the street, but walked towards the castle along the side of the street. Even though they had flashlights in their hands, Ye Zhou did not dare to turn them on.
If it was just an ordinary town resident, a pistol would be enough.
But there are vampires here, and Ye Zhou doesn't have silver bullets. Moreover, even if he has bullets, it is difficult to hit the heart with just a pistol.
It is not difficult to hit the abdomen or the head. After all, Ye Zhou has practiced for so long, so he is still confident.
But it is difficult to hit the heart, because the opponent cannot stand still and cannot hide his weaknesses.
If a real fight broke out, Ye Zhou knew that they didn't have much chance of winning.
Vampires can rush towards him without fear of death, but Ye Zhou cannot fight them without fear of death, because he will really die.
"We're almost there." Zou Ming walked in front, and he only had a pistol with him.
Cao'er walked in the middle and Ye Zhou was at the end.
Cao'er nodded nervously and whispered, "Brother Zou, should we just go around it?"
"Is there no one in the castle monitoring the situation around here?"
Zou Ming's voice was calm. He was always like this. No matter what the circumstances, he always acted confident, as if whatever happened was within his calculations.
"Yes, so you and I will lead them away, and Ye Zhou will go find Sarah."
This was what Zou Ming and Ye Zhou discussed in the room.
Although they knew Sarah was in the alley, they had no idea where exactly.
Since it was Ye Zhou who rescued Sarah, it would be safest to leave the task of finding Sarah to Ye Zhou. If Zou Ming and Cao'er go looking for her, something unexpected will surely happen. Either they won't be able to find her or they will be discovered by others. The past cannot be changed. Only Ye Zhou can find Sarah.
Cao'er nodded: "I understand."
After arriving near the castle, they hid at the foot of the wall. Zou Ming nodded to Cao'er, and Cao'er bent over and ran to the other side.
From their perspective, they couldn't see which direction the guards in the castle were heading, so they could only lure the guards out of their hole.
Ye Zhou ran forward after Zou Ming gestured to him. He ran across the street and behind a tree. Looking up from this angle, the castle looked like an extremely huge monster. It was pitch black, but there were lights shining through the windows. Ye Zhou even felt that he could hear music coming from the castle.
The music was very gentle, like a lullaby, but it didn't make people sleepy.
Occasionally, he could hear laughter mixed in with the music.
It seemed that someone was holding a party in the castle.
In this dead silent town, Ye Zhou felt cold all over when he heard the sounds from the castle.
After making sure that Ye Zhou was no longer in front of the castle, Zou Ming and Cao'er raised their guns almost at the same time. They fired blank shots into the sky. A huge and continuous sound rang out. After firing the blank shots, Zou Ming and Cao'er did not "escape" immediately.
They wanted to make sure the guards saw them, knew where they were going, and followed them.
Otherwise, the guards who couldn't find anyone would immediately throw out the dangers near the castle, and Ye Zhou would not have the chance to go to the alley behind the castle.
This is a risky move.
But after Zou Ming proposed it, Cao'er immediately agreed. Although Ye Zhou felt that this method was too dangerous, they really didn't have any better choice now and could only hope on the personal abilities of Zou Ming and Cao'er.
The guards in the castle reacted quickly. Less than a minute after Zou Ming and his companions left, they rushed out.
The entire castle quickly lit up, and the fire almost filled the entire castle.
As the guards stepped out of the castle gate, they saw two figures running away in two different directions.
"You chase over there." The leading man looked pale, with blood at the corner of his mouth. He made a gesture and quickly divided the guards into two teams. One team went to chase Cao'er, and the other team followed him to chase Zou Ming.
Ye Zhou had already taken advantage of the chaos and walked into the alley.
There are residential houses on both sides of the alley, but there is a wall separating the alley from the houses. Firelight can be seen from the houses. It is estimated that the townspeople living inside were also awakened by the gunshots.
Ye Zhou bent down slightly and told himself not to think about Zou Ming and Cao'er. Now that things had come to this, what he needed most was to find out where Sarah was being held captive.
But the end of this alley is visible at a glance, and even in the dark night, there is no place for people to hide in the empty alley.
Ye Zhou took a deep breath and started searching along the wall.
He searched around for a while, and just when he was about to take out the miniature flashlight and take a gamble, a smell of blood suddenly reached his nose.
In addition to the smell of blood, there is also a faint smell of decay.
Ye Zhou's hearing, vision, and sense of smell all began to improve from the day he became the owner of the Plane Supermarket.
Although Ye Zhou would occasionally joke with Zou Ming, saying that his nose was now a dog's nose, he knew in his heart that these things were advantages for him.
He calmed down and walked towards the direction where the strong smell of blood came from.
Soon, he came to the angle between the castle and the wall.
Ye Zhou bent down slightly. The closer he got to the ground, the stronger the smell of blood he smelled.
He took out a miniature flashlight from his pocket, then took out a handkerchief and placed the twice-folded handkerchief on the flashlight.
Most of the flashlight was blocked. The weak light would not allow him to be discovered, but it was enough for him to observe the situation under his feet.
Ye Zhou half squatted down and finally saw the railing under his feet.
It was like the iron fence of a city sewer, but most of it was blocked by the castle, leaving only a small piece as long as an index finger exposed.
But the light couldn't reach too far, and Ye Zhou couldn't see what was going on underground, but he felt that there was an 80% chance that Sarah was in this cellar.
Ye Zhou began looking for the entrance to the cellar again.
Fortunately, he still remembered where Sarah was when he last saw her through the telescope.
He searched for it based on his memory and soon felt that something was wrong under his feet.
There is a big difference between the soil and the wooden board. Ye Zhou found the pullable wooden door of the cellar, but this wooden door seemed to have been glued shut. He used a lot of strength and tried several times but failed to open it.
This wooden door cannot be opened by brute force. It is very thick and, after all, it acts as a floor when closed.
Ye Zhou took out a thumb-sized plastic bottle from his pocket.
This is the corrosive potion he bought from the system. It's such a small bottle, but the supermarket charges it two hundred thousand.
It wasn't because he had thought of the effect of the potion in advance, but purely out of curiosity about the "corpse-dissolving water". After all, according to the product introduction, such a small bottle of potion could corrode an entire alloy plate.
Ye Zhou felt a little regretful after buying it. After all, it was so expensive and he had no use for it.
But things purchased from the system cannot be returned, so you can only carry them with you and see if there is a chance to use them.
Ye Zhou poured the potion onto the wooden board.
Soon, the smell of burning trees reached Ye Zhou's nose.
He quickly covered his nose, the smell was too bad.
After waiting for less than thirty seconds, the wooden board was completely burned through, and Ye Zhou looked down.
The potion not only burned through the wooden boards, but also cut the stairs underneath in the middle.
Ye Zhou: “…”
He had no choice but to jump down, hoping that his landing posture would be better and he wouldn't hit his tailbone.
Just before jumping, Ye Zhou took a deep breath and jumped down with his eyes closed.
With a "bang", Ye Zhou stood up with his teeth bared. As expected, he had hit his coccyx, and his buttocks hurt so much that he walked with a limp.
However, he still didn't dare to use the flashlight directly. Fortunately, as soon as he landed, he found a table not far away.
On the table was a half-burned candlestick that was still usable.
Ye Zhou first lit the candle with a lighter. When the faint flame came on, Ye Zhou took a breath of cold air.
In addition to the candlesticks, the table was filled with blood-stained "criminal detention".
Huge sharp scissors, charred branding irons, iron chains and blood-stained hemp ropes.
Ye Zhou didn't look closely. He just took a glance and felt breathless.
Holding the candlestick, he slowly walked deeper into the cellar.
He wished Sarah was here.
I hope it's not Sarah who's here.
The tiny flame couldn't illuminate the entire cellar, so Ye Zhou could only take one step at a time.
Finally, he saw a strange "person" in the corner of the cellar.
Her limbs and neck were locked with iron chains, and she was forced to lie flat on the ground. A big hole was cut open in her stomach, and Ye Zhou could not see anything, but there were still intestines connected to the internal organs scattered beside her body.
Ye Zhou's face changed drastically.
He finally knew where the rotten smell he smelled came from.
The internal organs scattered outside have begun to rot.
