Not dead?
Xu Shen raised his eyebrows slightly, and seeing the other party trembling with fear, he felt that he was not lying.
"Where is she, have you imprisoned her?"
Xu Shen asked.
A deeper fear emerged in Han Cheng's eyes, not only towards Xu Shen in front of him, but also towards the picture that appeared in his mind at this moment.
"Imprisonment... sort of. Mainly because of her condition... she can't die."
Han Cheng's words were puzzling. Xu Shen was a little surprised. After thinking about it, he summoned Bishop Meng over. Some things can make one feel more at ease if one sees them with one's own eyes.
Not long after, Bishop Meng arrived.
"Your Holiness."
Bishop Meng Yuan Fei bowed his head respectfully, but his eyes quickly swept around, trying to gather the reason why Xu Shen was looking for him from the information around him.
"Use your ability to see what's in his head and find a girl named Su Shuang." Xu Shen ordered with an indifferent look.
Yuan Fei glanced at the middle-aged man kneeling and shivering on the ground, and immediately understood. He responded respectfully and then came behind Han Cheng.
Han Cheng heard footsteps and turned to look, but his vision suddenly blurred. The buzzing sound of a car rang in his ears, gradually becoming clearer from far away. With a bump under his body, he came to his senses and realized that he was sitting in a car, driving into a luxurious manor and passing the speed bump in front of the manor.
The gate of the manor opened, and there were two rows of guards. When they saw me in the car, they looked respectful and bowed their heads in salute.
Along the way in the manor were gardeners tending to the flowers and plants, and maids passing by on the gravel path carrying laundry.
Is this...home?
I'm not...
Han Cheng sat in the car in a daze, feeling dazed and unreal, as if he had been... somewhere else.
Is this a dream?
But... he reached out and touched the car window. The slightly rough leather particles were so delicate and real!
Here... is reality!
Han Cheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt relieved.
So, what happened before was a dream... So, what happened before?
Wait, I should be getting off work and going home now.
Yes, go home after get off work.
Han Cheng reacted and couldn't help but slap his head. What happened to him? Was he drunk last night?
It's all that little slut's fault. She was too strong.
Han Cheng shook his head and smiled, feeling inexplicably relaxed, as if the scene before him was extremely precious.
At this time, the vehicle drove slowly past, but did not stop at the main gate. Instead, it drove in front of a villa behind the manor.
Han Cheng was surprised, his face darkened: "Who told you to drive here?"
"Didn't you order me to do that, Master?"
The driver smiled in response.
The driver's face reflected in the rearview mirror was exactly that of Yuan Fei.
Han Cheng saw it and was a little confused. Does his driver... look like this?
Why do I seem to remember that he was a calm and taciturn middle-aged man...
Is it an illusion?
When Han Cheng was puzzled, the car stopped in front of the villa.
The driver got out of the car, opened the door for Han Cheng, stood respectfully aside and made a gesture of invitation.
Han Cheng got out of the car with doubts in his heart, but when he saw the villa in front of him, all the doubts in his heart disappeared. Suddenly, he thought of a horrible shadow, and his face trembled slightly.
Crash!
From inside the villa, there seemed to be the sound of chains at this moment.
There was the crackling sound of the chain being pulled, and the sharp sound of the chain being stretched straight.
Han Cheng heard it. The sound was across the villa, but it seemed to ring right in his ears.
He subconsciously took a half step back.
"Sir, please."
The door of the villa opened at some point, and Yuan Fei stood at the door, gesturing to Han Cheng to come in.
Han Cheng instinctively wanted to retreat, but reason told him that it was very dangerous there.
But when he saw the driver's invitation, he somehow stepped forward.
The villa was pitch black, like an open monster's mouth, and darkness surrounded .
Ta, ta.
Footsteps stepped on the wooden stairs and slowly went up.
Soon, the two arrived on the second floor.
Seeing the door to the second floor, Han Cheng woke up as if from a dream. He suddenly became sober. All his muscles tensed up and he turned around to go downstairs. He couldn't stay here for long.
But the way downstairs was blocked by Yuan Fei.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Yuan Fei looked at Han Cheng with a smile.
Han Cheng suddenly felt that the driver's face was a little strange, but also a little familiar, as if he had just seen it.
“Get out of the way!”
Han Cheng said rudely.
He reached out to push the other person's shoulder, but when his palm touched, he touched the closed door frame in front of him.
It's like time and space suddenly shifted.
Han Cheng was stunned. He retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted and took two steps back in horror.
"Don't you want to go in and take a look?" Yuan Fei said with a smile.
Han Cheng roared: "Who are you?"
"I?"
The smile on Yuan Fei's face became even more intense.
Then,
This smile melted like a burning candle, and the whole body melted with it. The melted body flowed through the crack in the door into the room in front of him.
Then, a sad voice that made Han Cheng's scalp tingle came from inside the door: "It's me... Do you agree?"
The voice carries a bit of sadness, a bit of pleading, a bit of longing, and a bit of darkness, like the whisper of a ghost in front of a desolate grave, which is both touching and moving.
Han Cheng's eyes widened in horror.
A gust of wind blew and the door in front of me suddenly opened.
Strands of hair flew out, revealing a hideous, strange mouth.
But behind this strange mouth, there was a snow-white and sad head, looking at him sadly, with eager eyes: "Let me in..."
As he spoke, the chains on the monster broke, and the monster's body moved forward and rushed out of the room.
The fluttering black hair surrounded Han Cheng, and the snow-white head was close to his face: "Let me in..."
“Ahhh!!”
Han Cheng suddenly opened his eyes wide and let out a terrified roar. His whole body seemed to be dehydrated and he broke out in a cold sweat, with beads of sweat all over his face.
The room in front of him disappeared, the monster disappeared too, leaving only the long table and the indifferent gaze looking down at him from the table.
Han Cheng was stunned. He looked around and found himself in the Xu Secret Bureau.
Was the previous... a dream?
Han Cheng was stunned.
Yuan Fei looked at Xu Shen and said, "Your Excellency the Pope, we have found it. Do you want to take a look at it yourself?"
"Yeah." Xu Shen nodded.
Yuan Fei immediately released his ability and brought Xu Shen into a dream.
In his dreams, he was able to replay the dream he had just read, allowing Xu Shen to witness it with his own eyes.
Soon, Xu Shen saw everything from Han Cheng's perspective.
Including many women who died tragically, and Su Shuang.
Seeing Su Shuang finally swallowed by the monster at the door, a hint of coldness flashed across Xu Shen's eyes.
But the subsequent changes were somewhat surprising.
Since devouring Su Shuang, the monster has undergone some unknown changes.
At the end of the dream, the monster was still imprisoned in the other party's manor.
Xu Shen was silent for a moment, glanced at Han Cheng, and then said to Lou Haiyin: "Take him with you, and let's go to his manor again."
"good."
Lou Haiyin nodded.
Xu Shen left, and as for Yuan Fei, he was asked to go back and do his own thing.
Not long after leaving the Xu Secret Bureau, Xu Shen, led by Lou Haiyin, arrived at the other party's manor.
They entered from the ruins and came to the villa deep in the manor.
Through the ruins eye, the villa became illusory, and Xu Shen could clearly see the scene inside the villa.
The second floor of the exquisite villa was in a mess, like a nest , with blood and dirt all over the floor and walls. On the second floor there was a stone pillar with a diameter of several meters, with chains on it, and a monster was tied to it.
This monster has a huge head and is covered with hair and beard, like a shell covered with spikes.
But at the top of its strange mouth, there is a snow-white head, with a delicate neck, and that appearance... is exactly Su Shuang.
Xu Shen was stunned.
Su Shuang was eaten by Xu, but... his head was preserved?
And from Han Cheng’s dream…this monster seemed to be controlled by Su Shuang.
"This Xu should barely be at B level." Lou Haiyin said to Xu Shen after hearing what the elf beside him said.
This is not difficult for them.
Xu Shen nodded slightly, and took Han Cheng through the villa and came to the outside of the room.
The monster also noticed the appearance of Xu Shen and Lou Haiyin, as well as Han Cheng, who was drooping his shoulders like a quail beside them.
"Let me in..."
Su Shuang's head in the monster's mouth suddenly twisted around, making a pleading sound and looking towards Han Cheng.
Xu Shen didn't say anything, but looked at the chains. These chains could only imprison C-level monsters. The one in front of him could easily break free from the chains after swallowing Su Shuang.
But it seemed to have reached some kind of agreement with Hancheng and did not harm the other party.
Han Cheng tamed it on the condition of "promise".
"Where is it going?" Lou Haiyin asked curiously.
Xu Shen remained silent.
"Inner City." Han Cheng's bitter voice came out: "As long as she goes to the inner city, she will do anything. If it weren't for this, I would have died hundreds of times."
He was able to survive by making a deal with the monster in front of him with this.
This made the monster not only stay by his side, but also willing to help him do some shady things.
This also made him feel both fondness and fear for his wife in front of him.
"This animal wants to go to the inner city?" Lou Haiyin was surprised and couldn't understand.
"Let me go..."
The chains rang and the beast approached Xu Shen, staring at Han Cheng.
Han Cheng's face changed slightly, and he forced a smile and said, "As long as you are obedient, I will let you go."
"I'm...very good."
Xu was whispering, and then he stood there without moving.
A hint of murderous intent suddenly flashed across Xu Shen's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
He said in a low voice: "I'll let you go."
Xu was mumbling to himself with his head down. When he heard Xu Shen's words, he suddenly looked up. His ferocious mouth moved closer , and his snow-white head looked at Xu Shen: "You... let me go?"
"That's right, I'll take you there." Xu Shen said word by word.
Xu's mouth opened and closed, spewing out bursts of fishy smell, but the delicate head above opened its mouth and revealed a smile of great surprise: "Then what do you need me to do?"
"unnecessary."
Xu Shen said.
"But……"
"Come with me."
Xu Shen said: "I will take you wherever you want to go."
Xu was stunned for a moment, looking at Xu Shen's face, as if he suddenly remembered something, and tilted his head to think: "You... seem a little familiar."
Xu Shen was shocked and looked at her.
But she just looked puzzled and didn't say anything else.
Xu Shen looked at her deeply. He didn't expect Su Shuang to end up like this.
Given this Xu's condition... no wonder Han Cheng said she couldn't die.
Even Xu Shen couldn't tell whether the person in front of him was Xu or Su Shuang.
Xu ate Su Shuang and seemed to have inherited some of Su Shuang's memories and obsessions.
But perhaps Su Shuang had plundered Xu's will in reverse...
What exactly is Xu?
Xu Shen couldn't help but think of "Mom".
Then he thought of the many people he had killed.
In some markets, several families live together happily.
Some ruins depend on people, just to find what they have lost.
The appearance of the ruins is similar to that of humans, but they are not humans. Where do they come from?
How was it born?
Xu Shen knew nothing.
Therefore, he couldn't tell whether it was Xu or Su Shuang in front of him.
"Let's go."
Seeing that Su Shuang hadn't thought of any more words, Xu Shen immediately turned around and said.
Su Shuang hesitated for a moment, but still slowly moved her body and followed Xu Shen.
But when she passed Han Cheng, she still stopped and lowered her head and asked, "Do you... agree?"
Han Cheng wanted to say no. He had a feeling that if he agreed, something extremely dangerous would happen.
But when he saw Xu Shen's cold gaze, the word "no" got stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it.
In the end, he could only feel thankful and said angrily, "I agree. You can go now."
Su Shuang was stunned for a moment, then showed an expression of surprise, and her eyes lit up .
"You agreed... That's great!"
She giggled like a happy child dancing.
But soon, her expression became strange and she looked at Han Cheng with a smile.
"You finally agreed..."
Han Cheng's pupils shrank, and as he looked at the strange mouth that was getting closer and closer, he quickly said, "If you do this, I won't agree."
"It's too late..." Su Shuang's smile was distorted.
Han Cheng was terrified and quickly stepped back, saying to Xu Shen, "Save me!"
Xu Shen didn't say anything and left the second floor.
Lou Haiyin was a little confused. She couldn't understand what all this was about. Feeling bewildered, she left with Xu Shen.
Snap!
After the two left, screams and sounds of bones breaking were heard, and Han Cheng's body was surrounded by a strange shell-like mouth.
Countless sharp teeth submerged it.
Not long after, Xu Shen, who was waiting outside the villa, heard the noise behind him and turned around to take a look.
It was Su Shuang who was slowly moving her tiny short legs under her strange mouth towards her.
"Do you agree that I can go..." Su Shuang looked at Xu Shen with a smile.
Xu Shen said indifferently: "Follow me, I will take you there."
Su Shuang looked at him with interest, and slowly approached him, with her strange mouth approaching, and a fishy smell came out: "Will you really agree?"
Xu Shen looked at her quietly: "Of course."
Su Shuang's mouth cracked into a smile: "That's great..."
After saying that, the strange mouth moved and actually surrounded Xu Shen.
But as the strange mouth approached, it shrank rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, the huge body of more than three meters shrank to about one meter.
Xu Shen looked down at the shrunken Su Shuang and said with a smile, "Be obedient. I said I would take you there, and I will."
Su Shuang looked at him in astonishment. She felt a strong sense of danger from the man in front of her, which made her want to retreat. However, what Xu Shen said prevented her from leaving.
