Chapter 171: A tragic return

Views:

The deep underground passage was completely dark, and a light source finally appeared at this time.

Inside the iron gate, there were scarlet dazzling red lights, pieces of old-fashioned lanterns with exquisite workmanship, but when you look closely, they are all made of pieces of human skin.

Exuding intense blood and coldness, it makes people frightened at first glance.

As soon as the iron gate opened, Wu Cheng, who had prepared early, rushed into the passage like an arrow from the string.

The space inside is very narrow, it is impossible for two people to walk side by side, and adults can only cat their waists after entering.

Yan Yan and Xu Lang started rushing inward one after another.

The evil spirit should be coming soon!

However, Wu Cheng, who entered first, had his eyes lightened, and he couldn't help but shake his heart when he looked at the dense human skin lanterns on both sides.

This is what the executors dream of!

At this moment, he could get it by raising his hand. Wu Cheng turned his head and looked at Yan Yan and Xu Lang behind him quietly, without saying a word.

This look made Yan Yan and Xu Lang's figure pause.

Yan Yan narrowed his eyes for a moment and said coldly, "Do you want to solve it here?"

Wu Cheng sneered, arched his waist slightly, and slowly took out the sharp knife from behind. The blade reflected the red light, his eyes fixed on Yan Yan, and he said: "The cooperation is over here, my brother's business. , I want to do a good job with you guys."

Xu Lang was clutching his left wrist at this time, sweating down like a rain, and he didn't have much strength to fight again.

Successive tasks pressed on him, this time there was not much rest time.

All of these executors hadn't slept for several days and nights, especially now that he was still injured. Coupled with the death of Zhang Qingyu just now, he could not compare with Wu Cheng in terms of mental state or physical condition.

He was no longer able to help, his eyes fell on Yan Yan in front of him.

Now I can only rely on strict words...

Yan Yan was also very anxious, Wu Cheng was in front of him, and the evil spirits could appear behind him at any time. He and Xu Lang were completely passive in the middle.

Now Wu Cheng is in trouble, he doesn't seem to fight with him from the bottom of his heart.

Although, he also wanted to kill him.

But now is not the time!

"Aren't you afraid of evil spirits chasing you?"

Hearing this, Wu Cheng smiled slightly: "The human skin lantern is at my hand. I can take it at any time. Even if the evil spirit comes, you are the closest. I can even watch you die, and then leave easily. "

Yan Yan snorted coldly, "You're so sure, can the lantern next to you make you come back?"

Wu Cheng frowned, glanced at the lantern, and then picked up one.

Immediately his expression was startled, but it was fleeting, and he fell silent and said nothing.

Yan Yan saw this and immediately understood.

Sure enough, what the mission said was to seize the human skins of the deceased, and there were dozens of human skin lanterns hanging here, but there were only seven dead in this case!

Wu Cheng looked sullenly and looked deep into the passage behind him, but immediately sneered.

"Although the mission says that it is not allowed to kill the executors of the same team, I can maimed you... For example!

Then Wu Cheng threw the sharp knife out, and the blade shone with cold light and threw it towards Yan Yan's thigh at a very fast speed.

As long as the strictly speaking actions are restricted, the goal has been achieved. Xu Lang is already at the end of the battle, and there is no need to worry, and the rest will be given to the evil spirits!

This is Wu Cheng's malicious plan.

But Yan Yan is also no ordinary person. His fitness skills are completely covered by top-notch ingenuity. No one in the newspaper knows. In fact, Yan Yan is a master of Taekwondo!

With just a slight flash, he completely avoided the sharp knife. Wu Cheng was taller than Yan Yan, and his movements were restricted in such a low space.

The two fought each other.

But the two of them couldn't tell the difference for a while.

And Xu Lang, who was watching the play, was leaning on the wall at this time, his face was pale, his legs were only weak, and he was almost unable to hold it.

Seeing the two fighting each other, he slowly stretched his hand into his arms, as if there was his last resort.

And when the three of them were fighting inwardly because of their private grievances, the iron gate not far away rang and smashed to the ground!

The three of them were taken aback, and at the same time they looked behind them.

There, a rickety shadow slowly appeared, stepping out of the dark place, and under the dim red light, its appearance was finally revealed in front of the executor.

It was a human-shaped monster with no skin on it, no eyes, no teeth, and its head was like a skeleton, with only a little remaining flesh hanging on the ears, and it would shake with every step out.

And its two hands, the nails are more than ten centimeters long, the edges are shining, they don't look like nails, they are more like tiny scalpels!

Xu Lang glanced, his heart beating wildly, it turned out that this was the terrible evil spirit in this mission!

As for Wu Cheng and Yan Yan, they looked back at one glance.

Because Wu Cheng still put on an obstructive look, firmly holding on Yan Yan to prevent them from moving forward, and Yan Yan also rushed inward desperately.

Two people are inseparable at all for a time.

At this time, Xu Lang, who had always been watching the show, finally slowly got up from the ground, and finally took out the killer's key that had been hidden from his arms.

This assassin is not for dealing with tasks at all, but for dealing specifically with executors!

Knife, sometimes cannot play a decisive role, then qiang, it must be.

Xu Lang trembled a little with his right hand, slowly lifted Qiang's mouth, and aimed at Wu Cheng.

Said coldly: "Get out of the way!"

Wu Cheng was pointed at by Qiang, and he broke down in a cold sweat, and started to retreat little by little.

He didn't expect Xu Lang to have such a hand all the time. He originally thought he was powerless to resist, but he didn't expect that he would carry a qiang!

Yan Yan frowned slightly, but didn't say much, and pulled Xu Lang's arm over, and the two ran deep into the passage.

Wu Cheng became the last person, and followed them madly inward.

Yan Yan and Xu Lang ran inward, putting their hands on each person's leather lantern and swiftly passing them, but unfortunately none of them received any hints to complete the task.

But at the deepest point, Yan Yan could see at a glance, an old-looking suitcase was placed there, and his eyes were bright.

At this moment, the evil spirit's figure suddenly disappeared from the back, grabbing Yan Yan's shoulder, and piercing his skin with knife-like nails!

Yan Yan's heart suddenly tightened. He didn't even see how the evil spirit flashed in front of him. In an instant, there was a flower in front of him, and his entire body was completely captured and completely separated from the ground.

On one side, Xu Lang also burst out a rare power at this time. The moment he saw the evil spirit appear, he slipped a shovel past the evil spirit's body.

One hand buckled the suitcase, and the evil spirit's other hand also grabbed his ankle at the same time.

In an instant, the numbness that seemed like a strong anesthetic suddenly hit, and quickly climbed up from his legs. Xu Lang felt that his legs were no longer his own, and he immediately lost control.

And this feeling is spreading at an unimaginable speed. It is estimated that in less than a second, he will undoubtedly die.

But his hands can still move!

Xu Lang gritted his teeth and buckled the suitcase with his right hand. Using the left and right sides with only flesh and bones left, he opened the cover of the suitcase fiercely!

The pain that was in the bone marrow hit like tides, but there was no time to take care of it. Xu Lang didn't look at it. He lay on the ground, and put his left hand into the suitcase. After a little groping, he encountered a soft boneless body. s things.

At the same time, a cold and mechanical voice suddenly returned to his mind.

"Submit the report and you can return to the newspaper!"

The voices that I hated in the past sounded like normal at this time, but Xu Lang was not in a hurry. Instead, he held the human skin lantern in his left hand, suddenly turned his head and threw it to the right rear.

Yan Yan was hung in the air. At this time, half of his body was held by the evil spirit on the left. The human skin had completely fallen off, and the blood had stained half of his body. But at the last moment when his consciousness was still sober, he suddenly saw a half in front of him. A human-sized lantern-shaped object was flying in front of him.

Although he could no longer move, the man's leather lantern happened to be buckled on his head!

At the same time, he also received a voice from the newspaper's will!

Xu Lang and Yan Yan screamed wildly in their hearts at the same time!

return! return! return!

Two white lights suddenly appeared from both sides of the evil spirits, but unlike the past, the evil spirits grasped the two people’s hands and were not bounced away.

One left and the other right, Xu Lang and Yan Yan felt that the hand they were holding was still exerting force, as if trying to force them out of the white light!

This is unique!

The evil spirit is robbing people from the newspaper!

But the white light from the newspaper office sprayed out of the two of them again, dazzling and more intense.

At the moment before Yan Yan was on the verge of death, the power of the newspaper finally prevailed.

The figures of Xu Lang and Yan Yan instantly disappeared in the underground passage of scarlet lights.

And in the end, the head of the evil spirit Nakong **** looked at Wu Cheng who was rushing towards the suitcase, trying to forcibly seize the human skin lantern at this moment.

Wu Cheng was about to pass by the evil spirit, and when he was less than one step away from the leather lantern suitcase, the evil spirit's hand grabbed him...

Inside the newspaper lobby, there was an uproar.

They had seen the tragedy and thrill of Xu Lang's trio, but they finally returned.

He Xiao stood up, his back was completely soaked in cold sweat, obviously he had been following the actions of Xu Lang and others in fear.

If the three of them are really destroyed by the group, then the newspaper will collapse!

He Xiao, Wuming, Zhu Zixing, Cheng Guoguo, Gao Yiyuan, Gu Chunxia, and the only six employees left in the newspaper, came to the center at the same time, waiting nervously for their return.

Before long, Xu Lang and Yan Yan were covered in blood, and their figures suddenly appeared in the center of the hall in embarrassment.

The newspaper's healing system quickly dealt with the injuries of the two, and then the two helped each other to stand up.

He Xiao and Zhu Zixing stood one side, helped them, and started walking upstairs.

And just as they were about to leave, a white light behind them suddenly lit up.

Everyone looked back, Wu Cheng's mutilated figure was lying in the middle of the hall!

Xu Lang and Yan Yan suddenly raised their heads and glanced at each other, full of surprise.

Wu Cheng, also survived...

The human skin lantern is in the middle level in the early stage and the unsolvable level in the later stage. 9 executors, 6 deaths, 3 survivors, and one non-executor dies, which is completely finished.

Rarely tragic, 7 people died! (End of this chapter)
