Chapter 7 – Since you're here, make yourselves at home. No need to worry too much
As soon as the old man spoke, everyone turned to look at Ma Fei.
After all, it was Ma Fei who had just led them in!
Ma Fei looked a bit embarrassed and quickly said, "How could it be that we can't get out? Don't worry, everyone, we can definitely leave. I'll go out and show you!"
Ma Fei ran to the left of the crowd, his swordsmanship-enhanced physique allowing him to run swiftly.
Then, a terrifying scene unfolded!
Ma Fei appeared from the right side of the crowd!
Ma Fei's face turned pale. He was sure he had been running in one direction, so why did he end up back here? Could it be a ghostly wall?
Unconvinced, he continued running forward, but soon Ma Fei appeared in his classmates' view again.
The old man looked at Ma Fei with a mocking smile, as if he had expected this all along.
"It's over, it's over, Yu Bro—no, Yu Dad! You have to look out for me later! This is a fucking ghost wall, it's terrifying!"
Yang Xiangdi clung tightly to Qiao Yu's left arm, as if that was the only way to feel a bit of safety.
The old man looked at everyone and said with a smile, "Since you're here, make yourselves at home. No need to worry too much."
"I get it! Grandpa, you want us to relax and face things with confidence, right?" Class president Ma Fei quickly chimed in.
"No, what I mean is, since you're here, you might as well be buried here."
Everyone: ......
"Alright, enough teasing you kids, it's getting dark."
The old man's expression suddenly turned serious.
"I am the village chief of Nightmare Village, Wo Gan. There are two rules for living in Nightmare Village, and I'll only say them once. If you can't remember them, don't blame me if you die!"
Everyone listened intently, and a few female classmates even took out notebooks.
"First, you can stay in any empty house, but don't touch the black stone on the door!
Second, you must return to the house before dark and close all doors and windows! Even if Ultraman Tiga comes, you can't open the door!"
Village Chief Wo Gan straightened his back and scanned everyone with sharp eyes. "Did you all hear clearly?"

"Village Chief, why can't we come out after dark?"
Wo Gan raised his head, revealing an extremely eerie smile. "Because, in the dark Nightmare Village, another group of 'people' will appear!"
***
The sun was setting, and it was about to get dark.
Village Chief Wo Gan began shaking a bell, urging everyone to hide inside the houses.
Everyone from Class 4-4 decided to follow the village chief's advice and find a house to hide in!
They split into four groups, each with eleven people.
Yang Xiangdi, Zhao Ziyue, class beauty Zuo You, the male classmate Zhong Tianyu who initially wanted to quit, and six other classmates were assigned to the same house as Qiao Yu.
Ma Fei was in the house next to theirs.
As soon as they entered, they saw the black stone with a winding, mysterious symbol on the doorframe.
Following the village chief's instructions, they quickly closed all doors and windows.
Night slowly descended, enveloping the entire Nightmare Village in darkness.
Strange noises occasionally echoed through the village at night, along with the sound of some animal chewing. It was chilling.
Qiao Yu and the other eleven sat in the brightly lit third-floor hall. In such a terrifying environment, they couldn't sleep at all.
Zhao Ziyue, her face flushed, sidled up to Qiao Yu. Her skin was fair and tender, her cheeks rosy, and her almond-shaped eyes were like pools of spring water.
Feigning shyness, she said, "Qiao Yu, if there's danger later, remember to protect me. My class is a healer, also known as a support, and I can give you lots and lots of health."
Zhao Ziyue lightly closed her eyes, her white teeth biting her rosy lips.
Any man seeing her like this would find it hard to remain calm.
However, Qiao Yu had already seen through everything. He cast a cold glance at Zhao Ziyue.
Trying to trick me into being a free simp? No way!
Seeing Qiao Yu's gaze on her, Zhao Ziyue straightened her back even more, accentuating her watermelon-sized breasts.
"Zhao Ziyue, have you no shame! There are so many classmates watching!" Class beauty Zuo You couldn't help but scold. She had a delicate and pretty appearance, like a dainty Lolita, with a face far prettier than Zhao Ziyue's.
However, Zhao Ziyue had the advantage of a curvaceous and hot figure, so both girls had their own charms.
"I like it, what can you do about it? Flat-chest!" Zhao Ziyue sneered, glancing at Zuo You's chest, making Zuo You's pretty face flush with anger.
Though she had a delicate face, her figure was flat, which had always been her sore spot.
"You think looking like a cow is attractive?"
"Better than having nothing at all!"
"That's just fat!"
While the two girls argued endlessly, no one noticed Zhong Tianyu, who was sitting by the window, slowly leaning towards it.
Because he saw his grandmother outside the window!
His grandmother stood outside, just as he remembered, with a kind smile.
"Ah Yu, my dear grandson, Grandma is so cold, it's so scary out here. Will you open the window and let Grandma hug you?"
Grandma reached out a wrinkled hand, trembling as she touched the glass.
"Grandma! I miss you so much!"
Zhong Tianyu couldn't hold back. Already terrified of Nightmare Village, seeing a family member made him even more emotional.
Zhong Tianyu reached out to open the window to hug his grandmother, his eyes empty as if bewitched by something.
"Stop! That's not your grandmother outside the window!"
Qiao Yu finally noticed what was happening with Zhong Tianyu and shouted urgently.
Fing hell, this is the third floor! How could a normal old lady be outside a third-floor window? A flying grandma?
But it was too late!
Zhong Tianyu had already lifted the window, and the kind-looking grandmother outside suddenly grew pitch-black claws.
The flesh on her face began to churn and fall off!
In the next moment, Zhong Tianyu's grandmother transformed into a hideous nightmare, opening a mouth full of sharp teeth at him!
A terrible stench wafted into the room, like ten-day-old fermented feces heated in a microwave.
Zhong Tianyu almost vomited up the stinky tofu and durian he ate yesterday after just one whiff.
The nightmare lunged into the room, extending its claws toward Zhong Tianyu's throat.
"Sand Entanglement!"
At the critical moment, Yang Xiangdi pulled out his staff and shouted angrily. It was a Grade F skill he acquired during the Novice Quest.
Countless sands formed whips that entangled the nightmare, giving Zhong Tianyu a chance to escape in a panic.
However, Sand Entanglement only lasted a second before the nightmare broke free, twisting around to attack another classmate.
Creak!
With a teeth-grinding sound, the nightmare bit into the classmate's arm!
Yang Xiangdi, having just cast his skill, couldn't stop it in time.
Blood spurted through the nightmare's sharp teeth, and the classmate screamed in terror, clutching his wound and retreating.
The nightmare bit off a chunk of flesh from him and began to chew it with relish, the chilling sound of chewing echoing in the hall.
Faced with such a bloody and terrifying scene, fear gripped everyone's hearts!
