Chapter 8: One Follows

Thick fog began to rise in the village again, Gu Qinghan squatted on the floor, raised his head to the ceiling in a daze, and Yu Zhiqiu carefully peeled the grape skins beside him.

As if remembering something, he said, "I feel very wrong." ”

"It's spicy, it's not right." Yu Zhiqiu was concentrating on stuffing the peeled grapes into his mouth, and his words were slurred.

"Don't you think that Bai Shi has some very important things to hide from us, just now the woman named Xiuwen was slapped by him, it must be that Bai Shi is worried about what she said." Gu Qinghan recalled what happened downstairs and frowned, "And he was polite to me as a newcomer on the surface, but he always felt ill-intentioned." ”

Yu Zhiqiu snorted, swallowed the grapes in his mouth and burped, "This is wrong?" ”

"I can't tell." Gu Qinghan said, "Do you think they look like veterans?" According to what Xiuwen said, Shiraishi has already experienced more than four scenes, but these people's reactions are the same as those of newcomers who have just arrived. ”

Gu Qinghan suddenly thought of the ability that Bai Shi had given him, and asked again, "Is the only way to obtain the ability through the scene?" ”

Yu Zhiqiu actually showed a meaningful smile when she heard this, and she said slowly: "You finally asked the point." ”

Gu Qinghan shook his head helplessly: "If you want me to come and see, it should be that after killing the original ability, you can take away his ability." I thought about it carefully, if he was really a veteran who had gone through four scenes and also had the ability to kill the wraith, why would he be afraid of this kind of scene where the number of newcomers accounted for half of the total. ”

"The fact is, this guy used crooked methods to pass the previous four scenes, and also gained abilities. And those who follow him exchange the props they get from surviving each scene for the protection of the next one. Yu Zhiqiu stretched his waist, revealing a snow-white patch around his waist, "And I'm here to slaughter this idiot." ”

"You have a grudge against him?" Gu Qinghan couldn't help but ask.

Gu Qinghan had always wanted to ask this question, from the very beginning when he saw Bai Shi, he noticed that Yu Zhiqiu's face was very ugly, and the various things that followed made him sure that these two people had definitely been married before.

"Ah, this can be said to be a long thing if there is a book, and if there is no book, it will be short." Yu Zhiqiu said, "I'll talk to you when I have a chance in the future." ”

"Okay." Gu Qinghan didn't ask any further.

At eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, Yu Zhiqiu and Gu Qinghan shrank into the quilt after saying goodnight, she fell asleep quickly, and Gu Qinghan tossed and turned, and finally fell asleep in the second half of the night and had a very strange dream.

This dream was very strange, he dreamed of the Qin Zi he saw today, the resentful spirit crawling on the floor without skin, howling at him that his skin was gone. Then Yu Zhiqiu appeared, and the girl stood in the distance with a snicker, waving at him.

Gu Qinghan suddenly woke up from the dream, his eyes widened and he looked at the ceiling.

Someone is in the hallway.

Gu Qinghan stood up from the floor, hesitated for a moment and woke Yu Zhiqiu up.

Yu Zhiqiu opened her eyes, the sleepiness on her face disappeared in just a few seconds, and she asked, "Have a nightmare?" ”

Gu Qinghan shook his head, nodded again, and then pointed to the door.

"I feel like there's something out there and I want to take a look."

Yu Zhiqiu blinked and said, "Then go, I'll be with you." ”

The two of them did not turn on the warm light in the room, and slowly walked to the door, then opened the door through a gap and saw the scene in the hallway.

Gu Qinghan couldn't see it clearly, and could only vaguely see a few figures standing still at the end of the corridor, holding hands and surrounding each other.

Yu Zhiqiu sighed slightly: "Oh, I didn't expect it to be so fast." ”

"Can you see clearly?" Gu Qinghan asked in a low voice, his vision was so dark that he basically couldn't see anything clearly.

Yu Zhiqiu replied, "Yes, a few resentful spirits are surrounding a person." ”

"Wraiths?" Gu Qinghan thought of Qin Zi, and wondered if she was also in the corridor at the other end.

Yu Zhiqiu seemed to be able to guess what he was thinking, and said in a sour tone: "Don't worry, there is no little resentful spirit, these are those who died in the scene, and they were assimilated into resentful spirits." ”

As soon as they finished speaking, they heard a soft thud, as if something had been ripped off.

"It's not enough... It's not enough...", the horrible voices of the wraiths rang out, and they grumbled as if they weren't satisfied with what they had in their hands, "more... And more! ”

The two of them closed the door at the same time very tacitly.

Yu Zhiqiu said: "It's dead, it's the one named Xiuwen." ”

"Huh? Didn't she have an amulet? Gu Qinghan was puzzled.

Yu Zhiqiu patted him lightly on the head: "One has a fart, and the resentment of these people who died in the scene is greater than that of ordinary resentful spirits." Do you remember what the old man said, it was a man who told them that there would be strangers to help them exorcise demons. ”

"You mean, this scene was specially set up for us to use?" Gu Qinghan suddenly realized.

"Well, that's what I thought." Yu Zhiqiu nodded, "Keep sleeping, it's useless to think about this now, this time the scene still depends on you." ”

Gu Qinghan immediately looked at her with a neurotic gaze: "Are you crazy or am I crazy?" ”

"I can't communicate with them properly, these spirits are naturally hostile to us, and only you can contact them." Yu Zhiqiu spread his hands and said with a wicked smile.

Gu Qinghan wanted to cry without tears, thinking that he had created some kind of sin to come here to suffer.

Yu Zhiqiu lay back on the bed again, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep, Gu Qinghan looked at the silhouette of the girl sleeping in the dark speechlessly, sighed and sat against the wall, intending to rest.

Knock Knock Knock –

I don't know how long it took, Gu Qinghan heard a knock on the door in a hazy sense.

Knock Knock Knock –

He immediately came to his senses and looked to the door.

A woman's voice sounded outside the door, and she asked, "Hello, have you slept?" ”

Gu Qinghan didn't speak, because this voice was Xiuwen's.

And just now, she was skinned by a group of resentful spirits.

She didn't hear a response from the people in the house, so she knocked on the door again: "I'm in some trouble, can you help me?" ”

Finally, Gu Qinghan got up, opened the door without saying a word, and saw the "person" standing outside the door.

It was a bloody body, and the face on his neck showed a hideous and terrifying smile when it saw him, and the broken muscles and leather residues were particularly terrifying as the smile pulled by the smile.

Gu Qinghan glanced at the door, there were bloody handprints that had been pressed out, and the fishy smell in the air penetrated into his nose.

"Have you seen my skin?"

Gu Qinghan shook his head in denial, and then leaned closer to that face and said, "Baishi's room is upstairs, the third to the right of the corridor. ”

Her smile froze, and her blood-stained eyes were filled with resentment.

"He should have slept, you can go to him for revenge." Gu Qinghan retreated into the house, looked her up and down, and said, "But I feel that you will be sent to death if you go, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea?" ”

"No need...", Xiuwen, who had turned into a resentful spirit, smiled bitterly, "I'm sorry, it seems that you are the most special newcomer I have ever met, just like that bastard in Shiraishi." ”

Gu Qinghan was not surprised, he had already heard this kind of thing no less than three times.

Gu Qinghan yawned: "I'll sleep if there's nothing to do." ”

"Then you rest early..."

Gu Qinghan closed the door without saying goodbye.
