Chapter Twenty-Four: The Black Stone

Just when countless black hands were about to catch her, Xiao Xia reacted quickly, and subconsciously leaned down to avoid her. She fell to her knees, holding back the great fear and nausea in her chest, and forced herself out of the crowd.

Some of the legs of those ghosts were rotten and emitted a disgusting stench, some were simply white bones, and some seemed to be vain ornaments, which made Xiao Xia deduce a lot in the process of squeezing out. And with the break of the leg, the body above also fell to the ground and smashed towards Xiao Xia who was crawling, so that she had to dodge left and right.

Those horrible grimaces were all facing her when they fell, the same expressions, the same excitement, the same wide open black hole-like mouths, black teeth, biting postures, and a few of them even fell off their heads, but they were still struggling to roll towards her, greedily inhaling her breath.

Released Xiao Xia crawled desperately, and several times was almost bitten by the fallen ghost, so scared that she didn't have the strength to judge whether her actions were right or wrong, and she was just bent on escaping from here. Gradually, she discovers that these ghosts are all the same, there are no eyeballs in the eye frames, and the ears are rotten, only the nose and mouth are present. They relied on her scent to find her place, or, because there were only two functions left, they were particularly sensitive.

She may be able to hide her voice and even her body, but she can't hide her scent! Because of this, they chased her like maggots attached to the bones!

Because Xiao Xia is drilling around on the ground, those ghosts who have no vision and hearing are always half a beat slow when they want to catch her, but when she struggles to crawl out of the group of ghosts that are gathering more and more, she finds that those ghosts are also lying on the ground, parallel to her to catch her. But they crawled much faster than she did, scurrying almost to the ground, like a dense patch of giant black rats.

She stood up and ran, not arguing, only that the corridor was as large and clueless as a labyrinth, and there was not a single room, and there were windows on both sides, and it was dark outside. She didn't know how long she had been running, but even though she ran in a different place each time, the goblins could catch up, but as she ran around like crazy, the numbers were not too dense and began to sparse. But it also allowed her to meet one or two wherever she ran, gradually blocking all her pathways.

Post her to be their food and they want to eat her!

Publishing this knowledge made her panic terrified, and it was better to kill her. She panicked and ran to the entrance of a cross hallway, where she found herself completely surrounded, surrounded by drooling ghosts on all sides. She felt like a small animal hunted by a beast, dazed and frightened, but there was no way to escape.

There was no way to release it, so she desperately wanted to open the window, thinking that she would rather fall to her death than be eaten. But the window was so rusty that it couldn't be opened, and the hungry ghosts around her had slowly shrunk the circle. The reason why I didn't do it yet was because everyone was scrambling to get the first bite.

They pushed, crowded, swallowed with a 'ho-ho-ho' sound in their throats, and slowly approached her. This made Xiao Xia's horror indescribable, the despair that was about to be torn apart, bitten, and swallowed into pieces of her stomach made her brain blank, only fear-

There was a crisp sound of the release', making Xiao Xia scream and hold her head.

Post "This way! A woman's straight voice called.

As soon as Natsu turned her head, she saw that the glass of the window had shattered, and a pale and extremely thin woman's hand was hanging there, making a gesture towards her.

Post "Hurry up! The voice was still urging straight.

The release of the breath of the outside air made the hungry ghosts, who were all focused on Xiao Xia, realize something, and began to be restless and rushed towards Xiao Xia desperately, which made Xiao Xia have no chance to hesitate, so she had to reach out and let that hand pull her out of the window.

Post "Ahh Natsu screamed because a hungry ghost grabbed one of her feet and left her hanging in the air, that is, she could not get out or get out. The person pulling her outside the window increased her strength, but the ghost in the house refused to let go, and Xiao Xia was pulled so much that she almost broke in two. And the ghost was still groping for her feet in a drunken way, and opened his mouth to bite down.

She subconsciously said and kicked desperately, and with a 'click', the ghost's head tilted and fell, and dense ants appeared on the neck.

The momentary laxity of the release caused Xiao Xia to be pulled out of the window and escape from the grasp of the hungry ghosts. She gasped for breath and found herself sitting in the canopy of a tree, with a bottomless abyss below, and hurriedly pulled the trunk of the tree.

There was a groping sound behind the release, and she knew it was the one who saved her.

Post "Thank you. She said, turning her head away.

The person who posted the nurse's appearance was squatting sideways, and the nurse was down, a strand of black hair hanging down, blocking her face, and she was sharpening a wooden stick in her hand, one at a time, very hard, sharpening more and more.

Post "You've got a lot of strength! Xiao Xia looked at her unusually thin figure, remembered the feeling she felt when she pulled her from the outside just now, and now saw her effortlessly cutting such a thick wood with a small scalpel, and vaguely felt that something was wrong, "What are you doing?" She asked.

Posted "Do you know why this place is called Hungry Ghost Road?" The nurse replied. The voice is flat, without a single tone.

Published "for-what? ”

Released "Because the ghosts who stay here feel unbearable hunger every day, no matter what comes, they will also be eaten without leaving slag, without exception." ”

Post "Then why are you - save me?" Xiao Xia quietly moved to the side.

Post "I'm not here to save you, I'm here to enjoy you alone." She turned her head and smiled happily, as she had no eyes or ears, and there were insects coming and going in and out of the rotten flesh on her face.

Post "I use this. She held up the pointed wood in her hand, "Pierce your heart with this, pour it on top of the rice I have stored for many years, and then hang you on the top of a tree where no one can reach the top of the tree to dry, and eat the meat slowly." ”

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to Natsu, who dodged and jumped down.

Post She'd Rather Die!

In a trance, she felt that she saw Hong's face, and then a sharp pain made her pass out.

Release &&&&&&

Ruan Zhan stood beside Xiao Xia's bed, gently stroking her frowning brow with his fingers. He knew that her soul was not in his body, and he could not feel his comfort, but the thought of the torture she was going through made his heart ache.

He stood for a moment, then resolutely turned to leave. He understood that if the soul did not return to her body for a long time, she might never wake up, so he didn't have time to feel distressed, and he had to do something.

When he came to the living room, Wanli opened the door and came in.

Post "How?" He asked eagerly. Glancing around, I made sure I wasn't spying on them.

Release Wanli shook his head, "Yang Muyou is not in the city, or there is no entry record, he can't be found from legitimate channels, and even Hong Haohao is missing." At the moment, we are too strong to speak, and even if you try to fight with him, you can't find him. How about you, did you come up with anything? ”

Ruan Zhan took out the things he got from the fish tank of the Gu and Fang family that day from his pocket and put them on the table. It was a small, flat round stone, black and shiny, shiny and oily.

"It's so beautiful, this is what you came from Gu and Fang's house that day?" Wanli picked up the stone and looked at it, and exclaimed, "It's not a gem, is it?" Oops—" Before he could finish his sentence, he felt a tingling sensation in his palms, and a tingling, itching sensation made him immediately put down the stone, "It's alive, it's going to bite." ”

Post "Look at the front of him, it's smooth. Ruan Zhan picked up the stone and showed it to Wan Li, and then turned it over again, "But his back is still very rough." ”

Post "Did you just prick my hand, not bite me?" ”

Ruan Zhan didn't speak, he suddenly took out a knife and slid it his hand, and blood immediately gushed up. He dripped the blood on the rough side of the stone, and the stone immediately moved as if it were alive, and then sucked it all in, as if nothing had dripped on it a few seconds ago.

Shi Wanli watched all this in amazement, and saw the stone tremble, and the rough surface slowly became smooth, and finally stood still.

"This-this-" He looked up at Ruan Zhan, seeking answers.

Release" yes, that's the key. When you entered Gu Hefang's bedroom that day, I accidentally felt that there was a strange feeling in the fish tank, and I happened to see a small fish accidentally touch this stone, and it was immediately attached to it until it died. ”

Post "Till Death So Hard? Then this is a stone or a monster! Wan Li plucked the stone with his fingers, feeling that it did have life, "What kind of minerals, take them to the scientific research institution to check them." ”

Post "If you want to find trouble, take it." Ruan Zhan said, "I don't know what it is anyway, but I remember reading an ancient book before, which is a romance of ghost stories, which says that there is a kind of stone that sucks people's essence and blood, and it will be completely drained." I used to think it was a legend, but now it seems that the world is really big, and there are no surprises. And guess - what happened to that little fish? ”

Release" isn't going to turn into black ash, is it? Wan Li said casually.

Publishing" True. ”

Release Wanli was stunned, he didn't expect this to be the case, "This is why the corpses of those women completely deviated from the laws of physics?" Wan Li was shocked, "He-I mean, where did Yang Muyou get this terrible stone?" ”

Publish "This world is full of colors, how much can humans know?" Ruan Zhan carefully wrapped the stone, "I don't understand what he uses the stone to suck the essence blood of these women?" ”

Release: "It's not the Taoist one, what is the yin to supplement the yang, right?" ”

Post "This is evil art, and it has nothing to do with real Taoism-"

He stopped halfway through the release, and at the same time Wanli also felt the dizziness.

Post "What's wrong?" Earthquake? ”

Post "It's not! Ruan Zhan gritted his teeth, "He's attacked." He said he was running to Natsu's room.

The release bed is empty, and Xiao Xia doesn't know where to go.
