This is not a weird story - Chapter 338 Obtaining the Drawings

It stands to reason that this shadow originally belonged to him and should not be hostile to Wei An’s body, but now the reality is exactly the opposite. After the shadow left the body, it immediately launched an attack on Wei An.

After Wei An was suppressed by his own shadow, the scene where he encountered the slender black shadow reappeared in his mind.

The feeling at this moment was so strangely similar to the elongated black shadow, which made him once again suspect that this strange story was closely related to the elongated black shadow.

His breathing stopped instantly, and the shadow had already wrapped around his throat. Under the pressure of the shadow, Wei An’s throat could be clearly sunken.

This guy had no body at all. Wei An reached out and dug his throat twice, but couldn’t touch anything. At the same time, his body was tightly suppressed by the shadow, making him unable to struggle.

Moving his eyes upward, he saw the candle that had fallen on the ground and was still burning not far from him.

Wei An no longer resisted the shadow’s attack on him, but stretched out his hand and pressed it on the beating flame.

The flames were extinguished instantly, the surroundings returned to darkness, and his body relaxed at the same time, and the suppressed power disappeared.

Without the light source, the shadow disappeared directly at this moment.

Wei An sat up and coughed violently. Then he touched the sheep’s hoof he had just put in his pocket and found that it was still there.

When he opened the door and chased out, the cloaked man had already disappeared.

However, through the confrontation just now, Wei An learned that the cloaked man was not very strong. The opponent was someone who had adapted to the inner streets. He might be an aborigine or a mutated outsider.

Because the smell of the cloaked man felt familiar to Wei An, it was almost the same smell as Zihai.

After standing on the street and looking around for a moment, Wei An felt that the street was very unsafe, so he immediately returned to the temporary residence given to him by Old Peter after not seeing the cloaked figure.

Now he no longer dares to light candles, because as long as there is candle light, a shadow will appear, and that shadow will immediately chase him.

But fortunately, when I was on the street under the moonlight just now, I still had no shadow.

He took out the sheep’s hoof and studied it carefully for a while. Although he found nothing new, the more Wei An looked at it, the more it felt like it was opening something.

There are no other plans for now, he can only wait alone in this room.

During this period, Wei An didn’t dare to sleep, and if he hadn’t been mentally and physically exhausted during this weird talk, he wouldn’t have felt sleepy at all.

Just like eating, usually there is no need to eat in ghost stories. One reason is that the completion time of ghost stories is relatively short, and it is over before you feel hungry. The second reason is that humans, as outsiders, seem to Will not be bound by rules.

Participants can choose to eat or not to eat, sleep or not to sleep, all within the scope allowed by the rules of strange stories.

When he thought about eating, Wei An remembered that he hadn’t eaten for a long time, and his stomach immediately growled.

He opened the oil paper wrapped in the animal meat that he carried with him, then took out a piece of cut animal meat, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it quickly and swallowed it.

Then put the remaining meat back in place.

He is now accustomed to the taste of this animal meat, and he feels strongly full after eating it.

Time passed by minute by minute, until the wolf howl that represented the arrival of the curfew sounded.

The entire city of Guwa became even quieter at this moment, as if it had become a dead city.

But what surprised Wei An was that not long after the wolf howling stopped, there was a sound coming from the street outside the window!

He looked up and took a sneak peek and found a row of people walking along the street. There were five people in this row, lined up in the shape of a “1”. They were all wearing the same cloaks worn by the person who escaped just now, and the walking pace was not very fast. Neat, but no one is left behind.

Soon the five men disappeared at the end of the street.

According to Wei An’s timing, about half an hour later, five more people wearing cloaks walked down the street in formation. Just looking at their clothes and height, it was impossible to tell whether they were the same as the cloaked people just now. group.

Just like this, five people would be seen passing by in a queue almost every half hour, as if on patrol. The curfew on the outer streets seemed to have no effect on the inner streets here.

But this patrol will only appear after the wolf howls.

After the next wolf howl sounded, the five-man team did not appear again.

At this time, Wei An noticed that there seemed to be a person standing on the second floor of a building diagonally opposite. When he looked carefully, he found that there were only curtains behind the window and no one was seen.

Soon old Peter appeared alone on the street.

Old Peter arrived in a hurry, probably right after the curfew ended.

After entering the room, he immediately saw the sheep’s hooves placed by Wei An on the quilt.

“How’s it going? Did you find the key?”

Wei An pointed to the sheep’s hoof, “Do you think… could this thing be the key?”

Old Peter stared at the sheep’s hooves in front of him in surprise, and after a moment he shook his head, “Are you sure this is the only thing?”

“Of course not.” Wei An said, “But it’s just like a key.”

Old Peter thought carefully, not knowing what he was thinking. Then he took out a piece of animal meat and put it in his mouth, chewing it while pacing back and forth.

Wei An truthfully told him what happened during the process of taking away the sheep’s hooves.

Old Peter said seriously: “From now on, you can’t light candles anymore, because once the shadow appears, it will be difficult for you to escape.”

Then he looked at the sheep’s hooves and looked embarrassed: “It’s a long way from here to the passage gate leading to Black Mountain, and it has to pass through the ‘grassland’. Some investigators have tried it before, but they never came back. Now let’s forget it.” You have the key, but who’s going to try?”

Wei An looked at him with a smile: “Do you think you can last until then?”

Old Bi swallowed the animal meat in his mouth and sighed: “If you hadn’t appeared before, I’m sure I would have risked my life to try after getting the key.”

“I can go, and this is our common goal, but I wonder if…”

Old Peter also laughed: “Young man, I know what you are thinking. Of course there is no problem. Speaking of which, this is also a method of equal exchange. I can hand over the production drawings of the bullet to you now.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a stack of drawings appeared in his hand for no reason, and he handed it to Wei An.

“This blueprint is a special personal item that we independently developed in Kaitan. You can store it in your inventory without using energy points, or pass it to other participants in Kaitan. However, if you want to produce it, You need to choose a special ghost story, and the current ghost story will definitely not work. How to find and enter those special ghost stories needs to be figured out by yourself.”
