After a while, the contract ghost seemed to find nothing, but its intuition told it that it must have overlooked something, but it could not find any trace of the "advisor" after he escaped.
With a dull growl, the dark red nails of its right index finger and thumb touched lightly, sending the most vicious curse to all the newspapers piled up in the courtyard.
The Contracted Ghost did not leave immediately. Instead, he hooked his backhand to the balcony on the second floor and climbed directly up.
Standing in the bedroom on the second floor, it opened its mouth to suck something, twisted its head, and looked around the room.
The contracted ghost could sense that there was a person in this room just now. This person gave off a feeling that made him feel frightened, but he seemed to be just an ordinary human being.
There was no result, and the Contracted Ghost immediately tore open the space in front of him, stepped into it and disappeared.
Shen Xing led the task force to search for him almost ten minutes later.
After determining the location outside, he first used his anomaly sensing skills to detect the movement inside and found that there were no anomalies here.
The task force did not enter the house. He walked into the house alone to check.
After seeing the newspapers spread everywhere in the house, Shen Xing determined that this was the place where the "advisor" was secretly hiding, and most of the newspapers had turned into scraps of paper, which meant that the contracted ghost had just come and was with the "advisor" There have been conflicts.
According to my own assessment of the "advisor's" strength, this guy is omniscient in information and good at conspiracy, but in terms of strength, he should be around a high-level abnormality, and cannot be super.
Moreover, the "consultant" has special characteristics, which means that it is unlikely to like direct conflicts with others. Instead, it likes to create information gaps in everything and use information loopholes to trick the other party.
This guy should have escaped the pursuit of the contract ghost just now, but the contract ghost has disappeared now, indicating that it is still chasing the "advisor".
After looking through the entire old-fashioned single-family house, Shen Xing returned to the first floor and stood in the backyard full of newspapers, staring at the newspapers.
It can be said that I first got to know the "consultant" through newspapers. Now that there are so many piled here, maybe the "consultant" also has the idea of hiding and escaping through newspapers.
This method is so powerful that even contracted ghosts can't do anything with it.
Now it seems that his side has to strengthen his defense, because now that the "advisor" is approaching him without anyone noticing, he probably has an agenda, and Shen Xing has already vaguely guessed that this is probably related to Feifei.
Because last time he asked Feifei about being sealed, it was part of the contract. It was impossible for the "advisor" not to become suspicious after learning about it, but Shen Xing did not expect that it would come so quickly.
Is there any key link in this that I have overlooked?
He had also looked on the second floor just now. It seemed that someone was living there. The quilt on the bed had been moved and was a bit messy. It seemed that the person had left in a hurry.
The same goes for the beds downstairs.
Thinking about it this way, the "consultant" seems to have a helper.
At this moment, Shen Xing felt a faint warmth in his chest. He opened his collar and looked down. The word "Ni" cursed by the contracted ghost was emitting heat and was slightly red.
This thing is included in the spiritual shock, but because of the blessing influence of the curse, it directly bypasses my own spiritual antibodies.
This strange attack method from the Contract Ghost is the first time Shen Xing has seen it so far, and it is very strange.
Because Qi Gui's attack was too fast at that time, even if Shen Xing had time to react, it would be useless to directly call out the human shield sentry. Because of this kind of curse attack, most human shields can't resist it, or they will directly bypass him and continue to attack themselves.
In the villa just now, if the recovering chaos was released, that place would be razed to the ground by two top-level disorder anomalies.
Feifei will be exposed, and most of the other ordinary people may die, so this is not the right approach.
And since becoming a super body, Shen Xing feels that his trump card has changed. It is no longer the absorbed latent skills, the enhanced physical and mental strength, nor the meme value, but what has been with him day and night... Wood carving!
He could feel that the moment the contract ghost appeared from the bedroom of the western suburbs villa, the large number of self-made wood carvings in the basement had a faint sense of gathering, as if they were collectively visiting the direction of the contract ghost.
The wood carving that Ye Ting left for herself at the other end of the black realm may also be a reminder to herself, otherwise she would not be able to make a wood carving exactly like herself.
At present, it seems that Shen Xing has another curse from the contracted ghost in his body. In addition to the curse from the deformed old man that was reminded by the previous chaos, there are already two curses.
It's just that the deformed old man's curse has triggering conditions, which means that now the curse has not been triggered at all. As long as he does not enter the black realm, he will be fine.
The curse of the Contracted Ghost should be activated in the short term, so this is a problem that Shen Xing must solve now.
Now it seems that the "advisor" is temporarily avoiding the pursuit of the contract ghost and will not bother him, and the contract ghost will not come to him because it wants to hunt down the "advisor". In addition, it thinks that it has cast a curse on itself. It's only a matter of time before you cause trouble for yourself, so you won't be in such a hurry.
This left Shen Xing plenty of time to deal with it.
Letting the task force continue to search for traces left in the old residence, Shen Xing returned to the villa first.
At this time, the work team was already helping him clean up his somewhat messy bedroom and replace the big bed that was trampled by the contract ghost.
Shen Xing came to Feifei's side. After chatting with Feifei for a few words, he asked her how she felt about the abnormal feeling of the Contract Ghost just now.
Feifei told him that she could feel the aura of the contract ghost next door being very strong, and it was an undisguised and very flamboyant aura. This may be related to the characteristics of the contract ghost itself, which is straightforward and does not mince words.
Shen Xing took out a wooden sculpture of his own, lay on the lounge chair next to the floor-to-ceiling window in Feifei's bedroom, unbuttoned the clothes on his chest, and leaned his wooden sculpture on the reddish word "ni".
About a minute later, a hot breath emerged from the chest, but it did not dissipate, but was directly absorbed by the wood carving on the chest.
Sure enough, Shen Xing's guess was correct. He could deal with the evil curse in his body the same way he dealt with the black poison entering his body.
And he can also use this method to absorb the deformity curse that the deformed old man cast on himself, but the deformity curse has not been triggered, but exists at a level of consciousness. If you want to use the wood carving to absorb it, you have to wait until you enter the black area to trigger it.
From this point, it can be seen that although the contracted ghost is an expert in casting spells, compared to the core abnormally deformed old man, the level of spells of the deformed old man is obviously higher.
But Shen Xing is not worried, because he carries his wooden sculpture with him at all times, and all he lacks is a triggering opportunity.
After lying on the recliner for twenty minutes, the word "ni" on my chest slowly began to fade from red, leaving only a single word mark. Then even the word mark slowly began to disappear, and after about thirty minutes it was completely gone.
The burning sensation in her chest immediately disappeared. Shen Xing asked Feifei to take the mirror and take a serious look at the skin on her chest. Sure enough, nothing was left.
At this moment, the wooden sculpture of himself that had absorbed the evil curse was slightly glowing with a dark red color. It took time to slowly digest the absorbed curse.
Feifei looked at the wooden sculpture carefully and said, "Uncle Shen, I can feel that this abnormal spell has a very strong special characteristic."
"Are you worried when you encounter anomalies of this level?" Shen Xing asked.
Feifei shook her head: "No, facing it is the same as facing other abnormalities. I used to be afraid, but now I'm not afraid at all."
"Just don't be afraid." Shen Xing nodded, "Be careful in the past two days. There may be anomalies that may approach you intentionally or unintentionally. There is also an anomaly that does not have a fixed shape, but appears in the form of words. You should also pay attention to it. , notify me immediately if anything goes wrong.”
Feifei showed a trace of hesitation at this time, but Shen Xing noticed it and asked, "Do you have anything to say to me?"
"Well." Feifei struggled in her heart and decided to tell her, "Some time ago I met a local ethnic minority aunt. She was very good to me. She also caught a lot of fish in the creek outside and bought a lot more. Put ornamental fish in. Sometimes she would bring me interesting local things.”
While talking, Feifei took out a finely crafted little puppet from the bedside table. This puppet was also wearing ethnic minority clothes. It was the image of a girl and looked extremely cute.
"Here, this is what she gave me."
Shen Xing looked at the puppet and found that there was nothing special about it, and said: "It's okay to make friends, as long as you pay attention and take precautions."
"She...she..." Feifei hesitated.
"Is she?" Shen Xing seemed to have guessed something.
Feifei nodded and said: "Well, she is abnormal. She thought I didn't notice that she was abnormal, but I know that I can feel her hidden characteristic breath in her mouth and throat. It's just that she has I was fine. I didn't see it through contact with her, but directly through her characteristics. I found that she was good to me from the bottom of her heart and wanted to pay attention to and care for me all the time. It was completely different from other anomalies."
"I want to be nice to you from the bottom of my heart?"
Shen Xing frowned in thought, and after a moment asked, "What's her name?"
"She said her name was Ayi." Feifei replied.
"Ayi? Ayi?" Shen Xing kept chanting the name, and suddenly his expression changed, and he asked Feifei: "Is there anything weird in her mouth, like biting bamboo or something?"
"No." Feifei shook her head.
"It should be, it should be... Yiniang biting the bamboo." Shen Xing whispered.
At this moment, there was a knock on the bedroom door, and the voice of the task force leader who had just returned came from outside: "Teacher Shen, we have searched all the old houses over there. Do we need to report to you now?"
Shen Xing nodded: "Come in."
The door was carefully pushed open, and the tall and muscular task leader, whose uniform was full of muscles, lowered his head slightly at this moment, smiled at Feifei, and reported to Shen Xinghui: "The building in that building The person living downstairs must be a man. We found his clothes and daily necessities. There is a woman living upstairs, who seems to be a local ethnic minority. The supplies and clothes in the house are all from ethnic minorities. .”
After saying this, the task force leader took out the clothes Zhou Zhiyong had worn and a small puppet with local characteristics.
After Shen Xing saw the puppet, he immediately turned around and looked at the puppet in Feifei's hand, and found that the two puppets were not much different, both looked like cute girls.
Feifei also saw the puppet at this time and compared it with some surprise.
After the task force leader left, Shen Xing rubbed his chin and said to himself: "It turns out she was the one who cooperated with the 'consultant'!"
Turning to look at Feifei: "Feifei, are you sure Ayi has no ill intentions towards you?"
Feifei nodded: "I am now very clear about the induction of these anomalies. No matter which anomaly came close to me before, their characteristics were very aggressive to me. Even if they were good at hiding, they still couldn't hide it from me. . But unlike with Ayi, I can feel her hidden characteristics, but her characteristics are not aggressive towards me. On the contrary, she is still trying her best to get close to and please me."
"Please?" Shen Xing was surprised.
"Hmm, it's like...like Lin Xuanqi, who pleases me from the bottom of his heart." Feifei said.
"Same as the Thought Sentinel?" Shen Xing thought to himself.
All other anomalies are aggressive, except for Thought Sentinel and Yiniang.
After thinking for a moment, Shen Xing came to two conclusions about Yiniang biting the bamboo. Either she was pretending to be close to and flattering Feifei in some way, and this pretense was so realistic that even Feifei's strong senses could not detect it.
Either it is because Yiniang is very smart, too smart, and the way she approaches Feifei is exactly the opposite of other anomalies, which in turn gets Feifei's approval.
"Although you can feel that Ayi has no ill intentions towards you, you still have to be extremely careful and not let them get close to you. Remember this." Shen Xing warned.
If there is one person in this world that Feifei completely trusts, it is undoubtedly Shen Xing. Feifei has always chosen to accept and obey Shen Xing unconditionally.
She nodded heavily: "Yeah, I understand. I will never let Ah Yai get close to me again in the future."
"No." Shen Xing shook his head unexpectedly, "She is the only one who can get close to you now, but I will protect you secretly."
"Ah?!" Feifei stared at him in surprise.
…
Five days later.
Kuazhou, Yungu City.
A middle-aged man was sitting on the balcony of his home, reading a newspaper. The early morning sunshine was slanting down, covering most of the man's body, making him feel warm. He couldn't help but cross his legs and sway gently.
The balcony is located on the third floor. This is a community that has just been built and officially put into use.
Below the man, other residents in the community passed by from time to time, some holding children and some walking dogs, but there were still too few people living in the community.
The middle-aged man took a sip of the hot tea placed next to him and stared at the health section of the newspaper, studying information on how to maintain health.
He didn't notice that a space crack appeared in the mid-air above the right side of his head. The crack was only the size of a palm. It tore open a slit, revealing only a scarlet eye that looked at him.
About two seconds later, the space crack slowly closed again.
The unaware man continued to read the newspaper. After about five minutes, he turned to the next page and was slightly stunned.
After carefully looking through the front and back of this page, I found that there was content, but the page I was looking at now was blank, with nothing in it.
"Is there a printing error?" The man looked surprised.
Just as he was about to continue browsing the next page with content, he suddenly froze and stared at the blank page just now, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.
I saw a line of strange text appearing on the page that was empty just now.
[I'm curious, as a brain tumor patient, how can you still maintain such a good mood and read the newspaper leisurely here? 】
At this moment, the man's frightened expression suddenly returned to calm. He put the newspaper aside, then stood up and climbed over the balcony on the third floor, falling upside down.
The next second, his head fell to the ground first, making a crisp impact sound, and red and white splashed all over the floor.
There was no one downstairs at this moment, and no one saw such a terrifying scene.
About half a minute later, the man's body twitched, and he stood up slowly. He took off his coat and wiped his face, then wrapped it around his somewhat sunken head. He murmured to himself and walked out of the community.
"You've been chasing me for several days, Contract Ghost, are you still so persistent?"
