I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

Chapter 380: Let Mr. Zhou deal with it

Pei Yan naturally saw Gu Chaoxi. Seeing her coming towards him, he seemed to understand what she was going to do.

"Ayan!" She couldn't help but call out when she saw Pei Yan was almost cut by the sword.

Fortunately, Pei Yan escaped safely.

Hearing the voice, the leader looked towards Gu Chaoxi and saw that she was holding a sword with blood on it, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

"It seems that Miss Shen is not an incompetent person."

"Heh!" Gu Chaoxi sneered and immediately came to Pei Yan's side.

"What I hate most is men like you who look down on others!"

After saying that, she stabbed the leader with the sword in her hand.

The man dodged quite quickly and immediately launched an attack towards Gu Chaoxi again. Pei Yan naturally would not let him hurt Gu Chaoxi, so he raised his sword to block him.

Now it becomes a one against two situation.

Faced with the attack from two people, the leader was obviously unable to cope with it.

Seeing this, the surrounding soldiers also wanted to come over to help.

It just so happened that Pei Yan and the leader had already moved to a relatively corner from the beginning, and now Qin Wei and Shen Yao were leaning close to them to help resist.

Even if the soldiers wanted to help, they were stopped by these two men and couldn't get any closer.

Seeing that the leader was about to die, Gu Chaoxi took advantage of the time when he was looking outside and directly put the sword against his neck from the side.

Feeling the coldness on his neck, the leader suddenly stopped.

If Gu Chaoxi used a little more force, his neck would immediately start bleeding.

"Miss Shen, don't get excited."

Since he kidnapped them, his original purpose was to get out of the Ancient Anning Temple alive and make a comeback.

Naturally, he would not let Gu Chaoxi kill him easily.

However, now the identities of both parties seem to have been reversed. Although the leader is unwilling, he would rather live than die.

"If you are willing to give up now, we can spare your life."

Pei Yan had recovered by now. He walked forward, raised the sword in his hand, and placed it directly on the other shoulder of the leader.

With two people holding him up, he dared not act rashly.

The soldiers around him had already stopped when Gu Chaoxi held him with a sword.

After all, the leader is their boss. How could they remain indifferent when their boss is held hostage?

However, Gu Chaoxi noticed that the person who had some say besides the leader did not seem to be willing to compromise.

It seems that their interior is not that indestructible.

"Mr. Zhou wants to hand me over to those people outside?" The leader pursed his lips, seeming unhappy.

He and the people outside are mortal enemies, and they both want to kill each other.

Now that I have lost, I think nothing good will come of it if I am handed over.

"What else? Are you going to let it threaten my life?"

Pei Yan's hand moved slightly, and the sword in his hand was closer to the leader's neck.

"Okay, I lose. I'll let Mr. Zhou deal with me as he pleases!"

In the stalemate, he finally lost and had to sigh and accept his fate.

Gu Chaoxi did not loosen his hand, still keeping the sword on the leader's neck, and just walked outside with his movements.

The three men were walking in front, and when the soldiers saw their leader being held hostage, they naturally made way for them.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the front yard.

The two people who were originally guarding the gate were still guarding the left and right sides of the gate. They were slightly shocked to see their leader being held hostage.

But soon, they reacted.

The winner takes it all. Since they lost, they should accept the consequences now.

The leader just waved at them, and the two men understood. They stood at the door carefully and slowly opened it.

When the people outside saw that the gate of the ancient Anning Temple was opened again, they all took defensive postures and looked inside.

However, it was not quite what they imagined. The one who was forced to come over this time turned out to be the leader.

Pei Yan and Gu Chaoxi still had blood on their bodies and faces. They had cold faces, just like ghosts, giving off a chill.

Even the people outside were shocked by their aura and did not move for a moment.

"We have subdued the man, what about you?"

Pei Yan just spoke in a cold voice. After all, he didn't know how people outside addressed him.

The less you say, the fewer mistakes you make, so.

"Capture the man!" The man on the horse also reacted, but he didn't expect that in less than an incense stick of time, everything would be turned upside down.

"Mr. Zhou is indeed talented beyond the reach of ordinary people."

Their soldiers came up and suppressed the leader, and only then did Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan put down the swords in their hands.

As the remaining soldiers filed in, Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan finally relaxed.

The man on the horse immediately dismounted and bowed to Pei Yan.

It seems that he is relatively respectful of Pei Yan's status.

"Mr. Zhou, now that the situation has been settled, you can set off to return to Beijing."

Yes, in this background story, the ancient Anning Temple is still some distance away from the capital.

Now that the storm has calmed down, Pei Yan has to go back.

"Okay, I'll pack my things." Pei Yan didn't panic. He just responded and walked back with Gu Chaoxi.

"Go back to your room."

The front and back doors of the Ancient An Ning Temple cannot be entered or exited casually, so it is impossible to follow that person out of the Ancient An Ning Temple. After all, they are not the real Zhou Jingran and Shen Yunqian.

When the two arrived at the backyard, they saw that all the soldiers there were detained.

Pei Yan glanced over and motioned for everyone to go upstairs.

As for the sword in his hand, he had already thrown it to the people coming in from the door when the two men came over.

Qin Wei understood and glanced at them: "Go upstairs and have a rest."

What he said was not very clear, but everyone understood what he meant. They threw away their swords and hurried upstairs.

The moment Shen Lan, who was walking at the end, stepped onto the stairs, they felt that their eyes were suddenly plunged into endless darkness.

For a moment, several people stopped.

After a while, the scene in front of me gradually became clear.

It was still midnight and the doors of several people's rooms were open. Looking around, there were almost no rooms with lights on in the temple.

"Are you back?" Zhou Youyou said softly with some uncertainty.

Qin Wei nodded: "I'm back, go back to your room and have a good rest. You still have a chance to sleep before dawn."

She had no way of estimating the exact time, but judging by how dark it was, it would probably be at least four hours before dawn.

It’s good to be able to catch up on four hours of sleep. After all, they don’t know if there will be any special circumstances when the host comes back.

"Good morning, good night."

Pei Yan smiled tiredly and entered the room.
