Alien Dust

Chapter 373 Death Omen Reappears
"Stop talking and wake up Hu Lu." Wu Hen immediately signaled to others to stop talking.

The egret was sleeping soundly. No one knew why, in such a horrible environment, people's guard would be lowered. As soon as they closed their eyes, they would fall into a deep sleep.

Hu Lu woke up in a daze, and when he opened his eyes, he was almost scared to scream.

The bald evil spirit came again, and this time it came very close, as if it was lying on the edge of a person's bed, holding a broken glass in its hand with milk that had turned gray in it.

"How did you sleep, little baby? You must be hungry and thirsty," asked the bald evil spirit.

Hu Lu rolled his eyes, seeking help from others while thinking about how to deal with the situation.

She tried calling the other person's name again.

But this time the other party did not leave.

Obviously, the name-calling method can only be used once. If the same evil spirit targets you again, this method will be ineffective.

"What's wrong with you? Why aren't you talking?"

"My family is soundly asleep. You don't have to be so cautious. They sleep very soundly and any noise they make won't disturb us."

Hu Lu was so frightened by the other party's words that she trembled all over. She could clearly feel the greed of the evil spirit, including his hypocritical smile which was changing from excessive enthusiasm to cold anger.

Wu Hen didn't dare to say anything at this time and could only point his finger inside the house.

Hu Lu barely understood, so he asked tremblingly: "How...how did you make them quiet down?"

"They all drink milk before going to bed. I put some sleeping pills that I usually take when I have insomnia in the milk carton. You know I have insomnia every day, and you always go to bed very late. I can always see you in the living room with the lights off. You like to dance while making midnight snacks in the kitchen, you listen to music in the bedroom, and you sing in the bathroom..." said the bald evil spirit.

These words made Hu Lu feel horrified.

She had lived alone before, and what she feared most was being spied on by such people. It was obvious that this bald evil spirit was an old pervert when he was alive.

"I thought you must be paying attention to me, that's why you found such a poor excuse to come to my garage. Since we are in love, then..." The bald evil spirit licked his lips, and his tongue was as long as a swamp frog!

Hu Lu didn't know what to do. She felt that the other party's magic frog's long tongue was about to stick to her cheek, and she subconsciously grabbed the iron rod next to her.

Just when she was about to fight back, Wu Hen suddenly shouted:
"Hey!"

The evil spirit in a sleepwalking state suddenly woke up. Its body was wrapped in a thick layer of ghost fire, and its eyes completely turned into a fierce spirit, staring at the person who suddenly appeared.

"Who are you! Why are you in my garage!" The bald evil spirit's anger suddenly surged, as if he wanted to swallow up all the living people here in one gulp.

"I'm Zhuhui, the blacksmith. The mayor told us to evacuate quickly. Hurry up and wake up your family. Something big has happened!" Wu Hen shouted righteously.

"What happened?" asked the bald evil spirit Yuxin.

"I don't know. The mayor asked me to call everyone to the shelter. You should also wake up your family quickly. If it's any later, everyone might die." Wu Hen said.

"Oh, oh, but everyone in my family is asleep." The bald evil spirit was intimidated by Wu Hen's aura.

"Just wake him up when he falls asleep. Is that difficult?" Wu Hen asked loudly again.

"But..." The bald evil spirit panicked.

"Go quickly, wake them up no matter what method you use, otherwise everyone will die!" Wu Hen ordered.

"Okay, okay!" The bald evil spirit was frightened and immediately floated into the house. He ran to the room of his wife and children and anxiously woke them up there.

Wu Hen's words seemed to have worked. The bald evil spirit never ran to the garage again, but was busy waking up his family.

In the eyes of this evil ghost, this dilapidated house is intact, and the family members are sleeping peacefully on the bed...

……

Finally, the evil spirit was driven away again.

Hu Lu breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Wu Hen with some joy and asked, "How do you know this trick works?"

"Because I guessed the cause of his family's death from his words." Wu Hen said.

"Ah? How did his family die?" Hu Lu asked.

"I know, it's sleeping pills... This old pervert must have had trysts with his female neighbor late at night. In order to avoid being discovered by the hostess, he put sleeping pills in the milk that the hostess and the children drank every night. Didn't the hostess's diary reveal their affair? The hostess must have been watching over the host all night. The only way he could make a woman fall asleep was to give her sleeping pills, and in large doses!" Cheng Liang said.

"So the night before the mysterious disaster, he gave his family members sleeping pills, but they couldn't be woken up no matter what he did. In the end, his entire family died peacefully in the disaster and failed to evacuate in time?" Wang Sheng added.

"But his family died before the disaster. After all, people who died in a disaster will become evil spirits?" Hu Lu said.

"I don't have enough information, and I don't know exactly what's going on. I'll just give it a try. If it works, it means my guess is closer to the truth..." Wu Hen said.

"Then how do you know there is a blacksmith named Zhuhui in the town?" Hu Lu asked.

"Didn't we pick up some ironware before, and didn't it have the blacksmith's name engraved on it?" Wu Hen said.

"Oh, I had forgotten about this. That means those wanderers who stole our ironware before should be able to survive. After all, they know the blacksmith's name and can use the name-calling method." Hu Lu said.

"It's hard to say. They are a group of uneducated barbarians. They may not be able to think of this level, let alone realize that the names of the town residents are the key to exorcising evil spirits." Cheng Liang said disdainfully.

Wu Hen nodded silently.

The group of vagrants chose a workshop as their shelter, which was not too far from the garage. Wu Hen heard screams from them in the first half of the night, and he was afraid that many people had died.

"Finally, I can rest until dawn." "These little fireflies have made a great contribution!"

"Hey, it's great to be alive and see tomorrow's sun."

"Don't mention it. Bai Luobo has been with the warden for a long time. He gives people the warden's leadership qualities, which makes people feel particularly at ease."

……

It's getting daylight.

The heads of the evil spirits in the town finally disappeared, and wisps of gray light filtered by thick dark clouds sprinkled on the swamp town. The town returned from being evil, terrifying, and twisted to being dilapidated, lost, and old. The living people finally crawled out from some nooks and crannies. Most of them were still in shock, and could not wait to find supplies to last until tomorrow.

"Warden!" Hu Lu finally saw a familiar figure at the street entrance and shouted excitedly.

"Hey, you are still alive too!" Prison warden Levi also laughed.

The prison guards he led were all intact, except for their dull expressions. Most of them had experienced a terrifying incident at night and were frightened out of their wits.

"Some kind of disaster happened in this town, causing the deaths of all the people in the town." Wu Hen said.

"We have to leave here, this is a dead town." Levi said.

"Ah? The energy here is enormous. Are you just giving up like that? What does the Death Town mean?" Wu Hen asked puzzled.

"I've asked all the wanderers here, including some lost ones who can barely communicate, and they all have not lived here for more than three days!" Levi said.

Hearing this, Wu Hen's brows furrowed.

Most Lost Towns have inhabitants, especially the Lost, who act as new members of the town.

But if even the Lost Ones have not lived in this town for more than three days, it means that every once in a while, this town will kill all the people who stay in this town!

This is the most terrible.

Even in the evil city ruled by Zaiwu, there are still black shirt organizations. They live in the city ruled by evil spirits, and some have survived for more than several years...

Besides, evil spirits are not interested in the lost.

A small town may not have an influx of new people, but it is impossible for it to have no permanent lost people.

"You just said that there was an incident in which everyone in the town was killed. In all likelihood, this disaster will happen in this town every once in a while," Levi said.

"But generally speaking, when we want to leave, this weird atmosphere doesn't allow us to leave." Wu Hen said.

Anything that people can think of, strange laws can also be thought of.

The mysterious power is a game played by ghosts and gods. It often plays with people's hearts and feeds itself by torturing the spirits of the living.

"You two, haven't you noticed that the streets today have become much stickier? It feels like we are in a swamp water city?" Cheng Liang said.

Levi lifted his boots and found that half of them were stuck in the mud.

Wu Hen also looked at other streets in the town and found that the streets suddenly disappeared and turned into horizontal and vertical mud...

Moreover, I don’t know if it was an illusion, but when Wu Hen ran out of the garage early this morning, he felt that the whole town was “shorter”!
"The whole town is sinking into the swamp!" Wu Hen immediately realized something.

"Get out, get out quickly!" Levi also shouted.

"Find the highest place in the town!" Wu Hen said.

Too lazy to try.

Wu Hen was 100% sure that even in the daytime, the group of people who had entered the town would not be able to get out.

Sure enough, the wanderers who survived the first night found that the whole town was sinking, and they all ran out of the town through mud and swamps, but as they ran, they appeared on a street in the town.

The town is sinking faster and faster.

While those people were struggling to find a way out, the streets, the ground, the small square, and the market were all swallowed up by the swamp. All the buildings in the town were sunk about half a floor into the swamp mud, forcing everyone to hide in the higher ground of the town.

Wu Hen and others were the first to run to the high areas of the town.

But many teams of wanderers were sucked into the swamp and could not move forward.

They climbed onto the roofs of some houses in the town and tried their best to move to prevent their bodies from being covered by the swamp water, but the houses in the town were very low, there was not a single tall building in the true sense, and they were all some distance apart.

Most people could only lie on the dilapidated eaves of the houses, and then watch in despair as the town sank little by little into the huge Fallen Flower Swamp, like a wooden boat on the abyss, feeling extremely helpless!

"There is a library and a stone temple at the highest point. Where should we hide?" asked Hu Lu.

"It's still the same old rule. Don't put all your eggs in one basket. We'll go to the Stone Temple and you go to the library, so as to avoid being wiped out!" Levi said.

At this moment, everyone realized that Levi had asked everyone to separate not to give the evil spirit a chance, but to split the risks so that no team would encounter an irresistible strange power that could kill them instantly!

But when Le Wei finished saying this, Wu Hen's eyes suddenly showed a hint of purple.

In an instant, the scene of death appeared before his eyes!
"Listen to me and go to the library!" Wu Hen said firmly.
