Chapter 767 Molting (3000)
It’s the statue in front of the sculpture classroom!
How could it appear here?
Before he could react, the next second, his whole body tilted to the other side, and a hand suddenly pulled him from behind.
Immediately, where he was standing before, there was a "bang" sound, the marble floor was cut open, and a dark hammer appeared on the ground.
It was thrown here!
The person who pulled him was naturally Wang Qi, but Jiang Cheng had no time to care about anything else at the moment, because the statue of the woman in front of him also moved.
Because it was a bust, it had no legs and only had an upper body. It fell to the ground and crawled towards him quickly like a spider with broken legs.
At this moment, Jiang Cheng understood that the mission had truly begun.
He immediately ran towards the door. Fortunately, the door could be opened. After briefly blocking the male statue who attacked Jiangcheng, Wang Qi also ran towards the door.
When Wang Qi ran out, Jiang Cheng quickly closed the door.
The two turned around and ran towards the other side of the corridor.
The resurrectable sculpture was obviously not ready to let them go. The wooden door of the sculpture hall made a loud "dong" and "dong" sound and was immediately knocked open.
Two resurrected statues chased out, the same two they saw in front of the sculpture classroom.
The male sculpture holds a hammer in his hand and runs after them, while the female sculpture crawls quickly on the ground. Combined with the gloomy scene, it is really scary.
"Find an open place and deal with them." Jiang Cheng said quickly.
"They are just stronger than ordinary people, nothing special." Wang Qi recalled the brief fight with the male statue and concluded: "But normal attacks are useless against them, they can only attack the position behind the head. , to kill them."
The two quickly ran to a fork in the road. There was a staircase on the right side. There was a small door next to the staircase, which looked like a small room where cleaning tools were stored.
“Follow me.” Jiang Cheng ran towards the stairs.
When the two sculptures chased after them, they happened to see a person standing on the stairs. Jiang Cheng looked down at them.
In just half a minute, the two statues changed both in feel and appearance. The materials on their bodies became wrinkled, and when viewed from a distance, they looked like they were wearing gray-white clothes.
A surprising guess came to mind. If they were given enough time, they might become exactly like real people.
The moment they saw Jiang Cheng, the empty eyes of the two statues actually showed emotions similar to those when people are excited. Then, the excitement turned into greed.
The two sculptures rushed up the stairs, but they did not notice that a small door behind them was quietly pushed open.
The male sculpture raised the hammer with both hands and made a throwing gesture from a distance. It seemed that he wanted to repeat his old trick and throw the hammer to kill Jiang Cheng.
But before the hammer could take action, Wang Qi suddenly appeared behind him, picked up the hook and hit it hard on the back of the head.
There was a muffled "bang" sound, and the cracks visible to the naked eye extended from the back of the head to the entire head. Finally, with a "crash", the sculpture's head shattered.
The remaining body still maintains the throwing posture, but it has turned back into an ordinary sculpture and is motionless.
Seeing his accomplice being killed, a humanized fear appeared on the raised face of the female statue.
Jiang Cheng was blocking the front, Wang Qi was behind, and the situation was instantly reversed.
Perhaps because her companion had just been killed by Wang Qi, the female statue chose Jiangcheng as a breakthrough point and pounced towards him.
Jiang Cheng dodged directly, dodging the statue's dagger-sharp nails, then punched it to the ground, followed, and killed it with a sickle.
“Huh——” Jiang Cheng breathed out. Fortunately, it was similar to what he had learned before. Apart from being stronger and weirder in appearance, these moving sculptures were not that difficult to deal with.
But what he meant by not being difficult to deal with was people like him and Wang Qi. Fatty and the others were obviously not in this category.
"Huh?" Seemingly discovering something, Wang Qi squatted down, stared at the female sculpture, and stretched out his hand to touch it.
Of course Jiang Cheng didn't think he was taking advantage. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Look, they seem to have changed. They have wrinkles, like they are shedding their skin." Wang Qi paused and said.
Jiang Cheng had discovered this before, but he kept thinking about Fatty and the others, so he didn't delve into it further.
Now that I heard Wang Qi say that, I also came over, squatted next to him, and touched it with my hands. The headless sculpture did not move at all, but it did feel different from the normal sculpture. It seemed to be more delicate. Some.
And by gently pulling it with your hands, you can pull up a layer, like a layer of washed stiff clothes, attached to the sculpture.
After a moment, Jiang Cheng suddenly stood up and walked back to where he was standing before. There was a folded piece of clothing on the ground there.
He took it from behind the door of the sculpture classroom. It was gray-white. When he touched it with his hand, it actually had the same texture as the sculpture.
Could this piece of clothing be stripped off a living sculpture?
"Is it possible that as long as you wear this dress, those sculptures will regard you as one of their own and will no longer attack you?" Wang Qi looked at Jiang Cheng and asked with a strange look.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Cheng stared at the clothes in his hands. He felt uncomfortable when he thought that they were peeled off from the sculpture.
Wang Qi saw Jiang Cheng's hesitation, stretched out his hand and said: "You are afraid of danger, I can try."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng said while getting dressed, "Brother Wang Qi, what are you talking about?" , I can just do it myself if there is any danger.”
There is also a hat on the back of the clothes, which can be turned over and fastened on the head.
After putting it on, Wang Qi immediately felt it. A cold breath.
It seems that from the moment he put on the clothes, Jiang Cheng's human attributes disappeared and he completely disguised himself as a ghost.
From the outside, Jiang Cheng's face couldn't be seen at all. The face was covered by a layer of translucent gauze, making it look like a protective suit.
Clothed in gray and white, if he stays still in this dark environment, at first glance, he does look a bit like a statue.
"It's true." Wang Qi glanced at Jiang Cheng's clothes with some jealousy.
Jiang Cheng didn't have any big reaction. He moved his arms and legs, then squatted on the spot a few times, and finally did a high-leg jump.
"How do you feel?" Wang Qi asked.
"It's a bit cold and gloomy, but it's acceptable." Jiang Cheng stopped and said, "And looking outside through this layer of gauze, it feels different from before."
"But." Jiang Cheng lowered his head and looked at his arms. "What's going on here? Why are there so many scratches?"
"Where?" Wang Qi walked up and followed Jiang Cheng's line of sight. He didn't see any scratches on his arms. Traces and the like.
When he touched it with his hands, there was nothing there. He didn’t know what the material of the clothes was. It was cold and smooth. He felt like he was touching ice cubes.
“It’s right here, can’t you see it? It seems that only people wearing these clothes can see it.” Jiang Cheng stared at his arm and said, “Someone carved it on purpose, with four lines diagonally, and then One vertical one, pass through it, and form a group like this, there are 5 groups in total.”
When Jiang Cheng described it like this, Wang Qi understood, "It's for counting, just like how we draw straight characters. There are 5 groups, a total of 25."
"It's the number of movable sculptures in this mission. There are two in the first group that are disappearing, and they should be the two we killed," Jiang Cheng said after thinking.
"In addition to these, there is also a pattern, like an eye, on the back of my hand, which should refer to the bandit ghost." Jiang Cheng continued.
Wang Qi turned to look in the direction they were running, with a flash of worry in his eyes.
“How was it?”
"No."
"I don't have one here either."
"How is that possible? Two big living people disappeared in the blink of an eye. How could this curtain be able to eat people? "The fat man didn't know how many times he had opened the curtains and looked at it.
No matter how you look at it, it is just a pair of curtains, thick at best, and it cannot bring back the disappeared doctor.
What’s even more confusing to them is that behind the curtain is a wall, a plain, blank wall with no windows at all.
Just now, Wang Qi and Wang Qi from Jiangcheng disappeared the moment they raised the curtains. The three of them had no idea what was going on.
When he came to his senses, he immediately came over to look for someone, but after searching nearby for a long time, there was not even a single figure, let alone a person, not even a ghost.
"Could it be that this curtain has a mechanism, a time-space tunnel or something, that transported Mr. Jiang and Wang Qi to another time and space." Shen Mengyun's eyes were full of worry, "Just like It was the night when the male teacher was killed."
"But this mechanism can't be used just once." Huaiyi was also a veteran and raised the question immediately.
They lifted the curtains many times, from different angles, but the result was still the same.
Huaiyi gradually calmed down, and after thinking about it, he said: "This road won't work. Let's change our thinking. Maybe it's not them that will cause problems, but us."
"Us?"
"Yes." Huaiyi nodded, "You still remember the charred ghost in the school library that only deprived vision."
"You mean Mr. Jiang has not disappeared, it's just that we can't see each other." Shen Mengyun said dimly His eyes gradually brightened.
"Yes, but this time it is obviously more troublesome, because we can't touch each other this time." Huaiyi said, "And I said it was us who had the problem, and there is a basis for it. After all, we are the only ones. The team members, that is, you two, saw that”
Judging by the shape of his mouth, Huaiyi wanted to say that person at first, but he quickly changed his words: "I saw that ghost."
Besides them, there would be no other living people here.
"I have an idea. If we look for Brother Jiang now, they will definitely not be able to find it. We can only continue to look for that ghost."
"If we find that ghost, this game should be over. It can be solved." Huai Yi lowered his voice.
“Let’s do it!” Both Fatty and Shen Mengyun agreed. After all, in this situation, we can only treat a dead horse as a living horse.
"That ghost has a red hijab on its head, so it's easy to spot!" After the three fat men discussed it, they turned around together and prepared to look for the ghost in the sculpture hall.
But as soon as they turned around, the three of them were stunned.
In the sculpture hall, all the sculptures within sight had a red hijab on their heads. A gust of wind blew by, and the corners of the bright red hijab tilted up, revealing a gray chin. (End of this chapter)
