Chapter 163: In pairs

~11 min read 2,010 words

"Indeed... I feel this village has a strange, eerie taste."

Wu Wu Pifu and Hao Cheng walked into the curtain weak point. Compared to the outside world, the scenery and time inside and outside the curtain weak point were the same. There was no such thing as pitch black inside. It seemed that there was no big difference inside and outside the curtain, but after stepping in, anyone could feel a sense of discomfort.

Wu Wu Pifu felt it even more obviously. He frowned and looked at the mountain village buildings in the distance, then couldn't help but say to Hao Cheng beside him, "I say, don't hold my arm!"

Hao Cheng had an expression as if he was about to cry, "I won't! I'm afraid! I'm naturally afraid of ghosts!"

Wu Wu Pifu had black lines all over his forehead, "You are a grown man, holding another man's arm here and saying you are afraid of ghosts. Are you trying to laugh me to death!?"

Hao Cheng still gritted his teeth and didn't let go. If anyone else saw that expression, it would be truly pitiful.

Wu Wu Pifu only felt goosebumps rising. He pulled his arm back forcefully and scratched his skin with his palm, "I gave you face outside, didn't you notice it yourself? Your body has started to feminize, and your chest is pressing against my arm, the feeling is very obvious, okay!?"

Hao Cheng immediately had a bright red face and hugged his chest, glaring at Wu Wu Pifu fiercely, but then he came back to his senses and broke into a cold sweat, "Not good, my subconscious has started to be changed!"

Wu Wu Pifu said unhappily, "You just realized it? You were like a little fairy jumping around since the airport. I didn't say anything to you outside, now you behave yourself for me."

Hao Cheng patted his chest awkwardly, "I was just happy to see a familiar person... I'll pay attention."

Wu Wu Pifu didn't say anything, just looked at the village in the distance, and then felt it carefully for a long while, "Something is wrong, really something is wrong. This place makes me feel a very strange feeling, not just simple danger."

Hao Cheng immediately said beside him, "Right, we also have this feeling, and the longer we stay here, the more obvious this feeling is. It feels... I can't say it."

Wu Wu Pifu couldn't say it either. He was silent for a few seconds and said, "Let's go, let's enter the village and take a look."

This was as it should be, and the two walked from the hillside toward the village.

This village looked quite old, basically all tile-roofed houses, with exotic flavors. On the roof, besides tiles, there were palm leaves. At this moment, the whole village was pitch black and quiet, only Wu Wu Pifu and Hao Cheng were walking toward the mountain village in the dark night.

The two didn't walk far, and just as they were about to approach the village, suddenly there were screams and gunshots from the hillside behind them.

The two looked at each other and couldn't care about entering the village, but immediately turned back and ran toward the hillside. While running, Wu Wu Pifu asked, "They followed in?"

Hao Cheng immediately shook his head, "Impossible, everyone has been in the dream world many times, and they have the minimum discipline. If it was said that only the two of us would enter, then it must be only the two of us... It's the people of this world who entered the curtain weak point!"

Wu Wu Pifu narrowed his eyes and asked, "Does this island country ban guns?"

Hao Cheng's expression also became serious, "No, but not many people carry guns... most of the guns are old-fashioned shotguns..."

After the gunshots rang out, they continued endlessly, ringing at least twenty or thirty times. This was definitely not something old-fashioned shotguns could do.

Both of them were fast, and Hao Cheng even slowed down to wait for Wu Wu Pifu to catch up. In just a few dozen seconds, the two reached the hillside, and then they saw fourteen corpses on the ground. And what shocked Wu Wu Pifu and Hao Cheng the most was that these fourteen corpses were all in pairs, with two identical corpses piled together.

Wu Wu Pifu and Hao Cheng looked at each other, and then each began to check the corpses. The more they checked, the more surprised they were, because these corpses were indeed in pairs. One corpse had a strange smile, while the other corpse had an inexplicable horror and realization. Then, the corpse with the strange smile held the corpse with horror and realization tightly. This was the scene Wu Wu Pifu and the two saw, mixed with inexplicable eeriness in the horror.

"... They are not villagers, not even indigenous people." Hao Cheng said with a complex expression, "The indigenous people of this island have reddish-brown skin, while they are white, and their clothes are modern suits. They are outsiders, not from this mountain village."

Wu Wu Pifu's ears moved, and he stood up and ran in one direction. Hao Cheng was even faster than him, running easily beside him, saying while following, "The worst situation has appeared. This kind of situation where people are clearly living, but they find their own corpses in the village, is not limited to the indigenous people in this mountain village, but any outsider who enters will have this eerie situation."

Wu Wu Pifu listened to Hao Cheng while listening to the human voices in the distance. He was approaching this group of people quickly, and then he saw seven people running around like headless flies in this small mountain forest. Among them were five men and two women. The five men were all wearing suits, each holding a pistol and shooting everywhere, while the two women were separated from them by a short distance. One of the women was actually someone Wu Wu Pifu had met once before.

It was Zhou Zhou Qingqing, the martial arts Grandmaster who had reached the Bao Dan Zuo Kua realm?

At this moment, she showed an expression of full disbelief. Although there was no fear, there was also shock. At the same time, both hands were set in dragon and snake postures, and her Qi and blood were also surging. Clearly, she had used her real strength, as if she was guarding against something.

Wu Wu Pifu stood not far away watching these seven people. He didn't rush forward directly, but silently sensed for a while, then said to Hao Cheng, "After the people died just now, the feeling here is even more eerie."

Hao Cheng also nodded repeatedly, "Right, I also feel it, as if... something is breeding."

Wu Wu Pifu nodded slightly, but what he felt was not something breeding, but a feeling similar to waking up. It was very wonderful. He didn't feel it before, but after entering this curtain weak point, especially when outsiders died in this curtain weak point, Wu Wu Pifu felt even more clearly that he seemed to be gradually waking up from a state similar to a lucid dream.

This was truly a feeling difficult to describe, and this sense of sobriety was very subtle. That was because his inspiration was high, and he had Huang Lian fragments, 'No-Sleep Spiritual Light', etc., which gave him this relatively clear feeling.

Suddenly, at this moment, one of the five suit-wearing men shouted, and the other four immediately pointed their pistols at him. Everyone saw this person standing blankly on the spot, foolishly looking at the ground. I don't know when, a corpse appeared on the ground, identical to him, and this corpse had a strange smile.

"No, no..."

This suit-wearing man's hands and feet were walking backward, but strangely, he kept approaching this corpse, and his words also made the people around feel hair-raising.

"It shouldn't be like this..."

"I'm sorry, really sorry, Tarisa, I didn't mean to abandon you..."

"... I'm coming, I'm coming."

Then this person and the corpse hugged together. In just one breath, he also turned into a corpse, with a look of fear and realization on his face.

The other four suit-wearing men were already scared out of their wits. Each held their pistols and shot wildly at the two hugging corpses until the magazines were empty, and two of them were still subconsciously pulling the triggers.

"Stop, stop!" Among the remaining four suit-wearing men, there seemed to be a captain, who shouted loudly, which made the other three stop slowly. Then, they each took out magazines from their bosoms to reload. For a time, their faces were full of fear and confusion.

!

Not far from them, Zhou Zhou Qingqing had the same expression.

Everything in front of her truly exceeded her imagination.

Although she was a martial arts Grandmaster, she had also heard of many myths, legends, and strange stories. However, she had truly never heard of this kind of eerie phenomenon. Even if she had encountered some so-called evil cultivators, they were all some kind of tricks. How could it be real things like this?

Just when everyone was scared to the extreme and at a loss, suddenly a tall and strong youth and a red-clothed beauty rushed over at the same time.

The four suit-wearing men immediately pointed their pistols at the newcomers, but before they could make any move, they saw a flash of red light, and their pistols actually all disappeared, snatched away by the red-clothed beauty.

"This, this... are you human or ghost?" The suit-wearing captain shouted in shock.

Even Zhou Zhou Qingqing looked at the red-clothed beauty with a face full of fear, because this speed was truly too shocking. This was not a speed a human could reach at all. Even her grandmaster probably couldn't do it.

Wu Wu Pifu hadn't spoken yet. Hao Cheng threw the pistol to the ground and immediately asked urgently, "Who was the Tarisa he just mentioned? Do you know her?"

The four suit-wearing men were still hesitating and afraid. The white woman behind Zhou Zhou Qingqing shouted loudly, "Answer, who is that Tarisa!?"

One of the suit-wearing men hesitated and said, "Tarisa is his wife. They are very loving and have a daughter. As far as I know, his wife lives in Libite City, and he has never abandoned Tarisa..."

Hao Cheng heard this and said with a face full of confusion, "In other words, it's not a ghost seeking life? Then why did he say his wife was abandoned by him? Truly strange."

Just at this moment, Wu Wu Pifu suddenly turned his head to look at the white woman. The white woman was stunned. Before she could make a sound, Wu Wu Pifu had already rushed in front of her, then reached out and covered her face.

Zhou Zhou Qingqing was shocked and was about to make a move, but heard Wu Wu Pifu say, "Don't look, close your eyes, immediately!"

The white woman found that she was not attacked, just that her eyes were covered by Wu Wu Pifu's hand. Her heart relaxed, and after hearing Wu Wu Pifu's words, her heart moved, and she immediately shouted sharply, "Is my corpse appearing? I ask you, is it seeing..."

Then she couldn't speak anymore. Wu Wu Pifu felt his palm cold. When he took his palm away, the white woman had already turned into a corpse with a look of fear and realization, and the corpse was cold and stiff, and didn't know how long it had been dead.

Wu Wu Pifu let go of the white woman, and saw the white woman's corpse fall to the ground. But clearly it was a corpse, yet it squirmed and approached another corpse that appeared on the ground, then hugged together.

Two corpses overlapped and hugged, their faces just facing everyone.

One strange smile, one fear.
