"Hold me for a while." Wen Zhong growled, and then he began to retreat to avoid these terrifying ghosts.
Wen Zhong retreated, and his pressure was naturally borne by Su Yue and No. 1.
Su Yue's side was fine. Even though she was surrounded by a large number of ghosts, her expression was still very calm and calm.
But on No. 1's side, perhaps he was too seriously injured before, but at this moment he could only struggle to hold on, without the ability to fight back.
"Use Ghost Candle. Now is no longer the time to save. Before the number of ghosts reaches an unacceptable level, we can reverse the situation in one go."
There was a fierce light in Wen Zhong's eyes.
The next moment, a red candle wrapped in gold foil appeared in his hand.
Immediately afterwards, Wen Zhong peeled off the gold foil without hesitation, and a strong smell of blood instantly filled the candle.
"This is...Ghost Candle!" No. 1 sniffed. The mask on his face had been shattered, revealing a dead face that was pale and stiff and did not look like a living person.
Su Yue looked at the ghost candle with burning eyes. She didn't know what she was thinking, but her expression was still extremely relaxed.
"Pfft——"
The ghost fire burning on the ghost candle emits a green light, covering an area of about three meters, which will just cover the three people.
When the candlelight came into contact with these twisted ghosts, the twisted and misplaced palms slowly stopped, and at the same time, one twisted figure after another slowly retreated.
These terrifying ghosts were undoubtedly forced back by Guizhu's candlelight.
The green candlelight swayed in the thick fog, seeming to reflect the shadows of countless ghosts.
"It's really useful. The ghost candle is truly a life-saving artifact. No wonder it's a strategic material for the headquarters. It just burns a little faster." Wen Zhong looked at the ghost candle in his hand and cursed.
Although it is not as fast as the burning speed when it was invaded by the source ghost in the previous thinking ghost incident, the ghost candle's burning speed is still very fast.
And as the ghosts from all around continued to come, the burning speed of the ghost candles was still further accelerating, almost continuously burning and decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Hurry up, this ghost candle won't last long." Wen Zhong urged, and then he took the lead and walked at the front.
Just as he turned to leave, as the candlelight faded, the ghosts hidden in the shadow of the thick fog surrounded him again.
No need for any urging or warning, seeing this, No. 1 and Su Yue quickly followed Wen Zhong. If they were left alone to face so many evil ghosts, they would probably be exhausted to death.
Under the candlelight, the originally airtight dense fog receded like the tide. Wen Zhong could even see the rusty iron gate of the cemetery not far away through the green candlelight.
Soon, they walked out of the woods wrapped in thick fog in the mountains behind Baiyang Village.
The evil ghosts following them also completely disappeared. Relying on Guizhu, they easily got rid of these evil spirits this time.
"No. 5, your ghost candle is pretty good. Do you want to sell it?"
In front of the empty gate of the cemetery, No. 1 looked at the scarlet ghost candle in Wen Zhong's hand with burning eyes. He tried his best to restrain himself and spoke in a relatively calm voice.
Wen Zhong blew out the ghost candle, wrapped it in gold foil and put it back in his pocket. After hearing this, he asked: "If you have such a good thing, will you sell it?"
"But there is only a small part of this ghost candle left. You can sell it, but after all, this thing is also a strategic material of the Ghost Controller Headquarters. If you can afford the price that I like, it is not impossible to consider it."
Hearing this, No. 1 squeezed out a rare smile on his stiff face, turned his back to Su Yue and quietly took something out of his pocket, and carefully threw it to Wen Zhong.
Number 1 said: "Look, these should be enough to replace. These are rare and good things."
"Hey, this is it?" Wen Zhong took the thing and looked at it carefully, with a smile on his face, and then threw the remaining half of the ghost candle to No. 1.
"Actually, I still suffered a loss in this exchange, but it was a pleasure to cooperate." No. 1 stuffed the ghost candle into his arms with satisfaction, and then said: "Do you need me to tell you the specific use of that thing?"
"No, I still know this." Wen Zhong said.
As No. 1 said, Wen Zhong actually got some advantages in this transaction. He definitely made a profit by using a small half of the ghost candle in exchange. Of course, the actual value of the two things was not much different, otherwise No. 1 would not have made the same deal. He trades.
"Don't be stunned, we have arrived at our destination, let's go in quickly." Su Yue walked into the cemetery and shouted to the two of them.
No. 1 nodded and was about to walk past, but was stopped by Wen Zhong.
"I don't like to take advantage of others. Since you have suffered a little loss, I will make up for it here." Wen Zhong looked at Su Yue with twinkling eyes and said, "How long do you want to keep pretending? , all the tricks have been revealed.”
"You are not Su Yue at all, you are just wearing a human skin. Do you want to be a human?"
Su Yue didn't speak, but a strange smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Her eyes stared directly at the two of them. It took her a long while to utter three words from her mouth: "Very good."
Her voice became very hoarse and her tone became a little weird. It was very different from before, as if she was a different person.
It also felt like a corpse covered in human skin imitating the tone of a living person, and the listeners couldn't help but feel a little numb.
"So, how did I get exposed? Could it be because I exposed the fact that you have a ghost realm?" Su Yue, no, it should be said that the person wearing Su Yue's skin said.
"Do you think I have a bad memory?" Wen Zhong asked back: "The purpose of our coming here is to find the source of the thick fog, but it is obvious that the source of the thick fog is in this forest, so what do you think about it when you go to the cemetery? What’s the purpose, do you want to skin us?”
"Is it like this?" Su Yue was silent for a moment and said, "It seems that your ability to solve the thinking ghost incident did not depend solely on luck, Detective Wen Zhong."
As soon as these words came out, Wen Zhong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. It was interesting that the person in front of him actually knew him.
"The only thing you said was wrong just now is that I am Su Yue. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to hide this from that old guy Su Changguang. He would have killed him long ago." Su Yue said.
"I'm not interested in who you are at all. I'm more interested in that ticket. That thing should be in your hand." Wen Zhong said.
As soon as these words came out, No. 1's expression also changed. There was a hint of surprise and greed in his eyes when he looked at Su Yue. If what Wen Zhong said is true, then the second stage of the ceremony can actually be said to be over. .
