"What the hell is this?!"
Yan Shuya, who finally escaped from danger again, looked back at the scary-looking "culprit" who grabbed her leg, and let out another sharp scream.
"It seems obvious that it should be a ghost baby..." Tang Yuanyuan reached out and pulled Yan Shuya, who was pushing her back on the ground, helped her up and said, "You should stay within our line of sight. , it’s better to be careful.”
Tang Yuanyuan didn't say the words "The ghosts here seem to like tormenting you more than me." He just patted Yan Shuya's shoulder soothingly, and then returned his gaze to the ghost crawling on the ground at the moment. Above the baby.
"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey..."
At this moment, the ghost baby has stopped the harsh cry that sounded like crying and laughing at the beginning. It seems to have returned to some kind of consciousness and is crawling like a wandering on the ground. It slowly turns its head to face Tang Yuanyuan and his party one by one, as if Are looking for something.
However, its empty eye holes with no eyelids or eyeballs make it impossible to tell what it is looking at, or whether it really has visual ability, but in any case, such black eye holes can make people's hair stand on end.
"Since it will appear here...then maybe the one who wanted to be locked up in this dormitory in the first place was this ghost baby..."
Tang Yuanyuan forced herself not to look into those empty eyes, and changed her mind to think about why the ghost baby in front of her suddenly appeared.
"But if it is really the child that Yang Qixuan had before her death... can an embryo that is less than two months old develop like this?" She muttered to herself and recalled the knowledge in biology class for a while, " Or was it deliberately fed into this shape after it died?"
"Is now the time to care about these things?!" Yan Shuya stood behind Tang Yuanyuan and shouted nervously, with a bitter expression and kept scratching her calf that had just been hugged by the ghost baby, as if that The cold, biting and slippery feeling still lingered on her legs, making it difficult for her to stand.
She continued with a crying face: "Shouldn't we get rid of this ghost baby as soon as possible..."
Before Shuya could finish her words, she saw the ghost baby crawling on the ground. It suddenly looked at her with its empty eyes as if it had found some target, and then opened its mouth and spoke again. After babbling twice, she suddenly uttered an inarticulate "Mom."
The ghost baby's "mom" seemed to be born with a chill that made humans uncomfortable. It made both Yan Shuya and Tang Yuanyuan feel creepy. Yan Shuya even grabbed Tang Yuanyuan's arm nervously, her voice trembling. Question:
"Who was it calling just now?"
"Shall I call you? The person it seems to be looking at is you."
Yi Huai, who was standing behind the two of them, suddenly taunted Yan Shuya, scaring her already bad face even more pale.
"Call me? What are you calling me for?! Isn't its mother Yang Qixuan?! She is the only one in this school who can give birth to such a thing, right?!" Yan Shuya gritted her teeth and roared again, "I don't know this Plant something! I don’t know it!!”
"Calm down, Yan Shuya." Tang Yuanyuan was pinched painfully by the strength of her grip on his arm, "Not long ago, you were chased by the female ghost Yang Qixuan. There may be some trace of her breath left on you. Ghost Maybe that’s why Ying is eyeing you.”
"Don't say it in such an understatement! Being called mom by such a ghost makes people go crazy! It's better to solve it quickly!" Yan Shuya shook her head desperately and said, "If Yang Qixuan can't do it, Guiying, your helpers can always solve it, right? !Kill it quickly!!!”
While the two were talking, the ghost baby was still repeating the phrase "Mom", and it kept crawling and slowly began to approach Tsumugi who was blocking the front again. Its face, which was full of blood holes, had several holes and the corners of his mouth. The regular opening and closing together makes it look like there are times of joy in finding something.
Zhen Ze stared closely at the approaching ghost baby and waited for Tang Yuanyuan's will, so he did not take action immediately. It was not until the ghost baby approached the dangerous range line again that it arched its back and was ready to pounce at any time.
Tang Yuanyuan was in a dilemma due to Yan Shuya's crazy persecution out of fear. She didn't want to kill the ghost baby right away because she was wondering why the ghost baby could be born in this form. And why Yang Qixuan locked up this ghost baby.
Before she figured out these reasons, she actually had no idea of solving the ghost baby for a while, because the more important thing behind this was that she knew that if the ghost baby was solved now, it would probably lead to immediate consequences. It even angered the female ghost Yang Qixuan.
It is also unknown whether the mastermind who has been hiding behind the scenes will take action with Yang Qixuan's outbreak.
At this moment, she was completely different from the mood she had felt before she came, thinking that Yi Huai and Zhen could be used as trump cards. Because of her experience on campus, she quickly realized that this was beyond what they could handle easily. range.
The visions on campus and the man behind the scenes seem to have many abilities that can interfere with them. Not to mention her own lack of proficiency in using spiritual power and Taoism, even Yi Huai, her biggest reliance, is actually He is still in the recovery stage and cannot cope with many things beyond his current capabilities.
In this case, they themselves may not be able to escape unharmed while dealing with this matter, let alone protect Yan Shuya, who is a completely ordinary person.
This made her realize one thing clearly: what happened on the campus she was once familiar with was indeed difficult, and it was much more difficult than she initially expected. At this time, she was not completely sure what to do. When I caught this big fish, I even suspected that I might be dragged into the water if I was not careful.
This was the reason why Tang Yuanyuan didn't dare to ignite Yang Qixuan's anger easily, because she didn't know who was the real prey in this situation where they were openly and secretly fighting.
And is the ghost baby that suddenly appears in front of him just a simple accident, or is it a bait placed by the other party?
Such thoughts flashed through Tang Yuanyuan's mind, causing her to have a headache and shake her head. After a brief hesitation, she finally made a decision.
"Zhen, help us put some distance between us and the ghost infant, but don't make a deadly move." She said and immediately turned around and pulled Yan Shuya, who was grabbing her arm, and signaled the other party to change direction and leave, "Keep some distance and follow us! "
"It's best not to act rashly yet... let's leave the dormitory building from the other side of the corridor."
As Tang Yuanyuan said that, he quickened his pace, broke away from Yan Shuya's hand and approached Yi Huai, who was walking at the front after changing directions, and spoke in a low voice as he moved forward.
"This matter seems to be much more difficult than expected... Yi Huai, let me ask you a question... Why do you think most of the things in this area can interfere with your judgment?"
Yi Huai was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then responded:
"...Because the shore here has become a boundary. This is indeed very strange and dangerous. Now neither the fox nor I can accurately judge the changing aura in this area. If we are not careful, we may fall into a trap. "
"This is indeed a point..." Tang Yuanyuan said that but shook his head slightly, and continued: "There is another thing... You should have noticed that there seems to be a force here that has a certain specificity for your abilities. Alright?"
Her words made Yi Huai on the side visibly startled. The latter was silent for several seconds before speaking again.
"...So you noticed it." He suddenly chuckled helplessly, "Sometimes I really feel that Tang Yuanyuan, are you too perceptive?"
"Now is not the time to mock me." She curled her lips when she heard the other person's emotion, but she didn't worry about whether the emotion was true or a lie. She just continued, "Didn't you tell me about your spiritual fire before? Can it burn most spirits almost indiscriminately? That’s why ordinary ghosts will basically stay away from your spiritual fire, and you always have the habit of using fire walls to divide boundaries..."
"Looking at Tsumugi's attitude, it seems that even the demon body wants to avoid some of your spiritual fire, but that ghost baby got through your spiritual fire as if nothing had happened... This kind of ghost that is immune to your ability shouldn't be like this Is it easy to see?"
"...Indeed, it should be said that over the years, except for my own intentional actions, I have seen only a handful of beings who are immune to my spiritual fire."
"Sure enough..." Tang Yuanyuan lowered his eyes after getting the affirmative answer, as if he had already made up his mind about something.
"Maybe we made a wrong judgment from the beginning... There are so many coincidences about the incident that happened in the school... Maybe it had nothing to do with us in the first place..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Yan Shuya's exclamation sounded from behind her again.
"Tang Yuanyuan!!! In front of you!!!"
When Tang Yuanyuan heard the sound, he immediately reacted and raised his head reflexively. What he saw when he raised his head was an extremely ferocious face.
That's the female ghost Yang Qixuan! !
None of them noticed that the female ghost Yang Qixuan appeared at the corner of the stairs at the other end of the dormitory corridor. No one knew when she rushed out of the dormant shadow. When Tang Yuanyuan saw the other party's face clearly, When the twisted, pale, ferocious and broken figure appeared, the bloodshot hand that the female ghost stretched out to her was already very close at hand!
Her goal is herself!
Such thoughts flashed through Tang Yuanyuan's mind when she knew it was too late to avoid it and had already planned to use her spiritual power to withstand the blow. In the next second, her vision was blocked by a familiar figure again, and the spiritual fire burned out. The fire suddenly flickered, and then she was held in Yi Huai's arms.
"Yi Huai!!..."
Being pulled into a familiar embrace again, she couldn't help but call out Yi Huai's name, and her hands trembled slightly as she grabbed the other person's clothes.
Of course she knew that at the critical moment, Yi Huai quickly turned around and used his body to block the distance between her and the female ghost, and ignited the latter's entire body with spiritual fire, but she still heard something being There was a scratching sound. If his spiritual fire was ineffective against the ghost infant, would it really be effective against Yang Qixuan?
In that moment where she could hardly avoid it, Yi Huai had no time to stop him from the moment he realized that the other party was coming to reacting even if he hesitated even a little bit.
Even if he knew that his spiritual fire might not be able to stop Yang Qixuan from moving forward, could he really stop him without hesitation?
