Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 2 Fear
"Don't!"

Ji Fuyou cried out in shock, his body leaning forward.

pity……

A person of low status has little influence.

Ji Qingqing is also a very proactive person.

I never believe that passively waiting can solve problems.

She seemed not to hear Ji Fuyou's advice, pushed open the car door, and stepped out with one foot.

Ji Fuyou, whose vision was blurring between reality and dream, narrowed his eyes sharply.

"Snapped."

Ji Qingqing's red high heels, which she hadn't taken off, made a soft sound as they stepped on the cement floor.

Nothing happened.

"Are you leaving or not? If not, stay in the car while I go get someone."

Ji Qingqing turned on her phone's light to illuminate the road and glanced into the car at the same time.

Yu Xiaoyu originally intended to stay in the car.

Out of sisterly affection, she couldn't bear to let her watch Ji Qingqing go alone.

As for having Ji Fuyou accompany Ji Qingqing, she was a little scared to stay behind alone—Ji Fuyou's neurotic behavior made her nervous too.

"Walk."

With a hint of reproach, Yu Xiaoyu also got out of the car.

Ji Fuyou saw that the two of them had gotten out of the car. Although he was afraid of the dream, he was better off not being afraid of the worst.

The monster in my dream really ate people.

Having been eaten hundreds of times, he has the right to speak.

"I'm with you."

Ji Fuyou got out of the car and quickly asked, "Are there any weapons in the car?"

"arms?"

Ji Qingqing was taken aback.

The federal government is known worldwide for its law and order; who would deliberately prepare something like that?

"Yes, weapons, just in case."

Ji Fuyou Road.

Do the repair tools in the trunk count?

Ji Qingqing said.

Ji Fuyou quickly went to the trunk and opened it...

There were some odds and ends and some gift boxes inside.

After searching for a while, he actually found something good.

Crowbar.

A crowbar that is pointed at one end and flat at the other, and is more than 1.2 meters long.

He weighed it in his hand; it was quite heavy.

He read online that people who have nightmares are physically weak. In his desperation to avoid being tormented by nightmares, he tried everything, regardless of whether it was true or not, and trained hard for nearly a month, including fitness and martial arts.

Swinging the crowbar was not difficult.

Ji Qingqing glanced at Yu Xiaoyu, who was wearing an off-shoulder sundress, and urged, "Xiaoyou, hurry up! The temperature difference between day and night in Xingguang City is so big, and it's foggy. Aren't we cold?"

"All right."

Ji Fuyou brought a crowbar.

Ji Qingqing glanced at him but didn't say anything.

She was speechless.

If he weren't her own brother, she would have turned around and left long ago.

She then took Yu Xiaoyu's arm, the two of them standing close together for warmth, and quickly headed towards Yunmengju.

A hundred or two meters isn't a long distance, and if it weren't for the fog, the brightly lit private courtyard would be clearly visible by now.

But the dense fog exists...

Visibility was extremely poor.

Even with the phone's flashlight on full blast, the illumination range is still quite limited.

The faint light emanating from the three cell phones looked like three lone boats sailing on the River Styx in the vast, thick fog, creating an indescribable sense of dread in the unsettling stillness.

suddenly!

"Susu!"

A strange noise came from the bushes nearby.

That feeling...

Something seemed to be moving through the reeds and approaching them.

Unfortunately, the surroundings were shrouded in mist, with visibility frighteningly low. The absolute silence made the rustling sound clearer than ever before.

The sound lingered in my ears, impossible to shake off!
The most important thing is...

That thing is very fast!

Much faster than humans!

And the direction they were heading seemed to be heading straight for them!

close!close!
The rustling sound of the grass rolling around was getting closer and closer!

Getting closer!

Getting closer!

"Oh!"

unexpected!

The sound disappeared!
That thing has crossed the bushes and is about to reach the road where they are!
Ji Fuyou stared wide-eyed at the front of him.

Even though he was holding the crowbar, his whole body felt as if it were being pressed down by something, and he couldn't move an inch.

Cold sweat trickled down his forehead and temples.

But he couldn't care less about that, staring at the thick fog in front of him where he could barely see his own hand in front of his face.

Inside there...

"call out!"

A dark figure suddenly darted out.

"what!"

The moment the dark figure darted out, Yu Xiaoyu couldn't help but scream.

And Ji Fuyou...

He froze there, his whole body numb.

He tried his best to move, to swing the crowbar in his hand, but his body felt like it no longer belonged to him; he could only watch helplessly as the dark figure lunged at him…

They swept past him.

They disappeared back into the fog.

The atmosphere in the room seemed to freeze.

A few seconds later, Ji Qingqing's voice rang out first: "It's a puppy."

puppy.

Ji Fuyou saw it clearly.

It is indeed a puppy.

The kind of local dog that farm families in the countryside often keep.

It's not very big yet.

Shoulder height is less than 40 centimeters.

This little dog...

This startled Yu Xiaoyu, causing her to scream, and Ji Qingqing to tremble with fear. The main reason for all of this was…

Ji Qingqing glanced at Ji Fuyou.

His face was pale, his chest heaving, and he was panting heavily, as if he had been violently frightened.

People are scary.

If he hadn't acted so strangely, why would they have been so frightened by a puppy that suddenly darted out?
"Are guests coming?"

At that moment, a beam of light pierced through the mist and shot towards this direction.

A greeting followed: "Are you Miss Ji and Miss Yu?"

Upon hearing this sound, Ji Qingqing and Yu Xiaoyu both breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's us."

Ji Qingqing quickly replied.

"Did Little Grey scare you? I'm so sorry, I'll bring some of the new drinks from the manor to apologize to Ms. Ji later."

Soon a woman who looked to be in her forties came running over carrying a lantern.

"Manager Zhou."

Upon seeing the woman, Ji Qingqing, who had visited Yunmengju several times, recognized her.

It was Zhou Tong, one of the shareholders and general manager of Yunmengju.

The so-called Yunmengju is just a relatively upscale farmhouse inn.

Because it is located at the foot of Fulong Mountain, with beautiful scenery and a pleasant environment, and the owner has planted many flowers and plants in the yard, it is a great place to take photos. Therefore, their company often comes here to eat in groups.

"Manager Zhou, are our company's General Manager Wang and the others still here?"

"here I am."

Zhou Tong glanced behind him and said, "It's because the fog caused a significant increase in air humidity, resulting in a power outage. Even the generator can't function properly."

"Air humidity?"

Ji Qingqing was stunned.

"We're just guessing, anyway, this power outage was very strange."

Zhou Tong smiled and said, "President Wang also said that it was attacked by electronic weapons, and speculated that the military might be testing some new electromagnetic weapon in Fulong Mountain."

She gestured with her hand, "Miss Ji, Miss Yu, it's a bit chilly outside, please come inside and have a seat."

Ji Qingqing and Yu Xiaoyu nodded.

Ji Fuyou remained silent.

His mind was filled with the experience of the short one or two hundred meters he had just walked.

The chilling feeling of an impending crisis.

The feeling of being suppressed was chilling.

That kind of nightmare-like fear of being unable to move your whole body.

Everything felt so real.

It was exactly the same as in his dream.

It made him feel it truly.

"Is what's in the dream fake?"

Ji Fuyou felt a chill in his heart.

Was everything that happened today real?

Can't tell.

He really couldn't tell anymore.

"Ji Fuyou!"

At this moment, Ji Qingqing, who had taken a few steps, seemed to realize that Ji Fuyou had not followed, and frowned as she called out.

"What are you standing there for? Let's go."

"There was something just now."

Ji Fuyou looked into the mist.

Ji Qingqing said impatiently, "It's just a puppy, Ji Fuyou, why are you so scared? You're being too dramatic!"

Ji Fuyou looked down at the crowbar in his hand.

Looking up again, I saw a thick, impenetrable fog.

One month!

A whole month!

He was tormented by this nightmare to the point of unbearable pain and was powerless to resist!
Dream on, how can you resist?!
Do not!
If we include all those bizarre dreams that have occurred intermittently over the years...

It's been much longer than a month!

But now, the dream has become reality, which has given him an opportunity!
An opportunity to break free from nightmares and shatter psychological shadows!

……

"I'm not going to eat this meal."

Ji Fuyou suddenly said.

"What's wrong with you?! If you keep this up, I'm done with you!"

Ji Qingqing was furious.

"I want to see what that thing is!"

Ji Fuyou gripped the crowbar and walked into the mist.

"Ji Fuyou!"

Behind him came Ji Qingqing's exasperated shouts.

But he waved his hand and didn't turn back.

Confront the fog!

"Why did I fail so miserably?"

Why am I so afraid?

"Why can't I even move an inch?!"

In the dream, he was powerless.

Just now, he was so frightened that he could hardly move.

shame!

An unprecedented sense of shame exploded in my heart and spread throughout my body!
Danger was closing in, and he dared not move!

Is the future just going to be a blur of aimless living, tormented by nightmares day and night?

Until one day I can't hold on any longer and suddenly die!?
Do not!
He needs to save himself!

figure out!
Find out what exactly this nightmare that has accompanied us since we arrived here!
Ji Fuyou suddenly looked up!
Amidst the mist, the indistinct dark outline of Mount Fulong stands silently.

"fear!"

An experience so close at hand, a memory so vivid in a dream that it's hard to distinguish between reality and illusion...

It constantly stimulated his mind, nourishing his fear of death in his dreams.

death!

fear!

The best way to overcome death and fear...

Face Him!
Following the source of his fear in his perception, Ji Fuyou strode forward.

"No matter what kind of monster it is!"

At that moment, it was as if he had shattered some kind of shackles, and his body became incredibly light!
There was a hint of madness in his cold eyes.

"Kill you!"

I'm looking for recommendations, to add to my favorites, and to read my new book.
