In a dream.

A woman dressed in red was sitting in the sedan chair. As the sedan chair bumped, she uneasily opened the red cover on her head, opened the curtain and looked out of the sedan chair. Her face was stained with tears, and she did not feel the joy of a newlywed at all.

.

At this time, it was just dawn, and there was mist all around. In order to identify the road, there was a person in front of the sedan carrying a red lantern to guide the way. The bright and dim candlelight escaped from the lantern, reflecting in the fog and adding some weird sounds from time to time.

atmosphere.

A group of people came to a dark lake. Not a single weed survived around the lake. Even the stones beside the lake were pitch black. As they got closer to the lake, a gust of evil wind gradually blew up.

The demonic wind whistled in my ears, but no ripples appeared on the surface of the lake, which looked extremely strange.

Everyone put down their sedan chairs and fled in a hurry, as if they were extremely reluctant to get close to the black lake.

As soon as everyone left, a ten-meter-high wave surged out of the lake. A strange laughter came from the bottom of the lake. Then, corpses appeared one after another on the lake. The woman turned pale with fright, covering her eyes and shrinking into a ball.

Then a raging wave of water rushed towards the sedan chair. The woman only had time to scream in surprise before she was carried into the lake by the wave...

This nightmare was so strange. So many strange things happened today. What was going on? The succession of strange things made Jiang Wuqi fall into deep doubts.

The sky is gradually getting brighter, the weather is clear and fresh, the sun is shining slantingly on the street, there are still overnight dewdrops on the branches on the roadside, the breeze is soft and cool, the sky is clear and blue, it is very beautiful.

morning.

"Dong-dong-dong! Dong-dong-dong!" There was a rapid knock on the door.

Jiang Wuqi, who was still sleepy, opened his eyes and wondered who was knocking on the door.

Jiang Wuqi lazily got up, rubbed his eyes, opened the dormitory door, and took a closer look. Standing in front of him was Xu Fu with messy hair.

"Hurry up and change your clothes and follow me out to look for someone. Lao Zhang is missing!" Xu Fu looked panicked.

"Lao Zhang? Why is Lao Zhang missing? Isn't he on vacation?" Jiang Wuqi asked doubtfully.

Xu Fu said quickly.

"Lao Zhang took a private job yesterday and went to Yutai Mountain in Taojiagou. He hasn't come back yet. His phone has been turned off and he can't be contacted at all!"

Jiang Wuqi looked surprised.

"Then why don't you call the police quickly and find the police?"

"I've called the police. The police said it will take more than 24 hours to file a case. Change your clothes quickly and follow me to find Lao Zhang."

After Jiang Wuqi heard this, he hurriedly changed his clothes, followed Xu Fu out of the dormitory, and drove the van straight to Yutai Mountain.

On the road, Xu Fu was driving, still looking panicked.

"Relax, maybe Lao Zhang's phone is out of battery. The weather forecast says it's raining in Taojiagou these two days. Maybe it's raining harder. The mud roads in this rural area are difficult to walk on, so just stay in the village.

We are just staying at home for one night, there is no need to be so nervous." Jiang Wuqi said softly.

Xu Fu just turned his head and looked at Jiang Wuqi.

"Impossible, Lao Zhang is not the kind of person who would "receive goods" alone, and even if he is taking private work, why don't you bring a helper with you? Do you think everyone is as strong as you, Lao Zhang?

None of us knew about the private work. In the middle of the night, I heard from the guard that Lao Zhang drove to Yutai Mountain and has not come back. Then I contacted everyone, but no one knew about Lao Zhang.

where are you now."

Jiang Wuqi also began to think about it at this time. What kind of work did Lao Zhang take? He would drive out quietly by himself and "pick up the goods" by himself.

After all, in the Sunset Crematorium, the only one who can "receive the goods" by himself is Jiang Wuqi. After all, the physical strength and strength are here. As long as the "goods" are not two to three hundred kilograms, there is basically no problem.

Besides, only Jiang Wuqi could handle such a thing as taking on private work alone.

As we get closer and closer to Yutai Mountain, heavy rain pours down, and the originally dark sky slowly turns pale.

The rolling dark clouds turned into boundless water vapor and mist, merging the sky and the earth together, and the world was in chaos.

The heavy fog began to gather and descend again, and peaks began to appear faintly in the distance, one by one.

It's like the isolated islands on the turbulent sea, with wisps of heavy fog floating gently, and wisps after wisps.

If you stand a little further away, you will feel that the whole place seems to be moving, and the mountains in the distance seem to be moving too.

Jiang Wuqi and Xu Fu were driving and passed by a lake. Jiang Wuqi just looked out the window and was surprised to see a familiar van parked next to the lake.

"Huzi, stop the car, stop the car, I saw Lao Zhang's car, it's over there." Jiang Wuqi shouted to Xu Fu as he spoke, and pointed to the van parked by the lake not far away.

"Hiss~" There was an urgent sound of brakes, and Jiang Wuqi and Xu Fu's van stopped.

Jiang Wuqi and Xu Fu ignored the rainy weather and hurriedly got out of the car and ran straight to the van with the words "Sunset Crematorium" on it.

Xu Fu and Jiang Wuqi looked inside the car through the car window and examined it carefully.

"Lao Zhang is not in the car." Xu Fu said to Jiang Wuqi.

Jiang Wuqi turned around to look around, and was suddenly startled again.

The lake in front of me cannot be said to be very similar to the lake in last night's nightmare. It's almost exactly the same. This pitch-black lake, this dark weather.

Jiang Wuqi picked up a stone from the ground. It looked as dark as in the dream. Yes! This was the "corpse lake" in the dream!

It's so strange, this is simply too strange. Strange things have happened one after another in the past two days, as if something dangerous is about to happen. Jiang Wuqi stared at the dark stone in his hand in confusion.

"A piece of broken stone, why are you in a daze? Hurry up and find Lao Zhang!" Xu Fu shouted to Jiang Wuqi.

Xu Fu's words woke up Jiang Wuqi, who was still in a daze.

Jiang Wuqi quickly threw away the stone in his hand and looked around. After asking around, Jiang Wuqi saw a dark wooden house on the other side of the lake.

Jiang Wuqi immediately shouted to Xu Fu who was not far away.

"There is a house over there, let's go around and have a look."

The two of them ignored the pouring rain that was still falling, one in front and one behind, walking slowly and step by step around the black lake and towards the dark wooden house.

The road was muddy, and there were large and small pieces of mud stuck to their shoes.

As soon as I walked to the wooden house, I saw how dilapidated the entire wooden house was. It was obvious at a glance that no one had lived in the wooden house for decades.

The wooden house is not very big, but it is very small, maybe only twenty square meters in size.

Neither of them spoke, they just looked at each other and walked towards the wooden house.

I pushed open the dusty and shabby door, and as soon as I stepped in, I saw a dilapidated and withered statue in the middle of the hall, and it was also headless.

There is a dusty shrine under the statue, and the corners of the room are hung with cobwebs, which are as gray and dim as Jiang Wuqi and Xu Fu's boring moods.

"Old Zhang!"

Jiang Wuqi shouted in horror, pointing to the side of the hall.
