Tales of the Strange works

Chapter 90

    

Jie and Chen Jiansheng, I plucked up my courage, picked up the hat and tried it on.The hat smelled a bit musty, and after I put it on, I asked, "Sister Hong, Chen Tucheng, am I invisible now Can you s...My mouth twitched, I opened my mouth to speak, but nothing came out.

Then I lost consciousness and fainted.

.......

I woke up with a headache, I don't know how long I had been asleep.

I wanted to move around, but I found myself unable to budge. My legs and arms were both tied up with ropes.

"Sister Hong! Big Brother! Third Brother!" I struggled with all my might, shouting desperately.

"Well, being young has its perks. You're sprightly! You were the first one to wake up," Chen Jian Sheng said with a playful smirk as he waved his flashlight around and looked down at me.

I was blinded by the strong flashlight and shouted, "Chen Tuchong, you're not dead! What are you doing tying me up Let me go!"

"Heh heh," he retracted his flashlight and grinned. "My esteemed colleagues, come out and see for yourselves. See if this lad is suitable to be a sacrifice. That old geezer Sun really isn't competent. It's been five or six months already, yet the corpse hasn't reacted at all."

"

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

As soon as he finished speaking, several figures emerged from the darkness.

I took a closer look. There were three people in total: two middle-aged men and an old man. The old man had white hair, and what caught my attention was his height. Judging by my estimation, he was definitely no more than 1.5 meters tall. He looked thin and small, almost like a child. This person was an old dwarf.

"Jian Sheng, how is it This must be the young man you were talking about" The dwarf old man looked me up and down.

"Correct," Chen Jian Sheng glanced at me and said, "Sir, the sound-imitating insects are working on this person."

">

Oh Is that so.

The old dwarf seemed very surprised.

I couldn't understand the conversation between these people, so I shouted: "Chen Tucheng, what are you doing!"

"What are you doing Haha"

Chen Jian-sheng pointed at me and shook his head, smiling: "Your name is Yunfeng, right You're truly innocent. Luckily, Chen Houqin is awake now. Tell us what happened, don't worry, you can speak freely."

">

I turned my head and saw that Hong Jie's hands and feet were bound. She was leaning against the stone wall and had already woken up, staring angrily at Chen Jian Sheng.

"Don't be like that, Chen Houqin, your eyes look like you're about to eat someone," said Chen Jian Sheng, shrinking his shoulders with a nonchalant expression.

Hong Jie took a deep breath and spoke, “You pretended to be mentally ill before, deliberately acting crazy and foolish, imitating my way of speaking. Was this all to get closer to me and Yun Feng and dispel our concerns”

Chen Jian-sheng snapped his fingers. "That's right."

"

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Red Sister coldly said: "The Echoing Worm Yunfeng caught, you deliberately released it."

"""

Chen Jian Sheng nodded readily and said, "That's right, the sound-producing insects reacted to this kid, but unfortunately, you found him beforehand."

">

"I'm asking you, do you actually know if that entrance is... In other words, were those mountain goblins also trained by you Were the hats and clothes they wear also intentionally given to them by you"

"Yes, to train these beasts, I read to them every day. It's all about conditioning them, of course. And the ultimate purpose of all this To lure you here, to show you your graves."

">

Hong Jie's chest heaved, she was clearly furious.

We have been tricked.

"I understand now. I immediately shouted, “Chen Tuchong, we have no past grievances or present conflicts with you. Why are you doing this!”

“Oh You ask why” The dwarf, barely five feet tall, ambled closer, saying as he went, “You don’t need to know why. You won’t live long anyway, there’s no point in knowing.”

"

"

Jian Sheng, get to work.

The old dwarf pulled out a red incense stick from his bosom and handed it to Chen Jian-sheng, then he stepped back a few paces.

"Well then, let's get started," Chen Jian Sheng took out three incense sticks and lit them.

He held three incense sticks, looked at me and Hong Jie and bowed: "The two of you from the Northern Sect, please smell the incense."

"

> Then get on the road.
