Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Little Hidden in the Wild

Fake Xiaoxia stood in the corridor under the tower, looking a little unwilling.

Mao Fu did not succeed in the assassination, she had expected that the surname Ruan was not an ordinary man, even if he was in retreat, his extraordinary keen intuition could play a role. It's a pity that Mao Fu didn't die, and Ruan Zhan didn't kill him out of anger!

Mao Fu was one of the sinners back then, even though he was not the one in charge, he deserved to die! Every participant of the year is going to die! Those who are dead will be paid by their descendants! In her opinion, it is natural for the father to repay the debt of the son! But Zhang Qun, the person who helped them, said that he wanted to keep Maofu and a dog's life as an internal response. She agreed, but she was not reconciled.

So she came up with such a trick and asked Mao Fu to assassinate Ruan Zhan, of course it was good to be able to hurt him, but it was what she expected to kill Mao Fu with Ruan Zhan's hand, so that she not only sought justice for their group of people who died in vain, but also did not break her promise to Zhang Qun. Of course, it would be best if you could lose both.

But according to the report of the person she sent to monitor, Ruan Zhan did not kill Mao Fu, but knocked him unconscious, and then took off Mao Fu's clothes and tied him up strongly, and threw him in the dark room at the top of the tower!

The energy in that dark room was too great, she couldn't get in, she could only linger outside the door, could she let Mao Fu get away with it?

"What now?" An old voice came from the thick fog.

"Third uncle, that Ruan Zhan hid in the tower and didn't come out, what can Sister Xinxin do?" A young man said that it was the resentful spirit that had taken over the body of the Ma reporter.

"Then let's spend it. No one can get in and out of here anyway, and they will die of thirst if they don't starve! One woman said hatefully, "Let them taste what it was like back then!" ”

"The problem is that now there is only one real person surnamed Ruan, and the others are attached to the porcelain doll, so they don't feel thirsty and hungry at all, and the surname Ruan is probably not so easily affected." The third uncle seemed to be relatively calm, and said slowly, "Also, if you wait too long, who knows how much Ruan Zhan's skills will recover?" Xinxin said that his mana was not consumed in the tower, but increased, right? ”

The fake Xiao Xia, who was known as Xinxin, didn't look back, still staring at the tower that stood still, "That's right, I used his girlfriend's body to get close to his body many times, and I do feel that his ability is stronger than when he entered the tower." ”

"And what if he's not under the control of this tower?" The young man cried out helplessly.

"Why don't you burn this tower with fire?" Another voice in the thick fog suggested, "If you don't believe him, don't come out!" ”

This time, Xinxin quickly turned her head, stared at a gray shadow in the mist and said loudly: "Don't make up your mind if you don't understand the situation, you haven't forgotten that we are ghosts, right?" What kind of fire can ghosts create besides ghost fire? As you probably remember, ghosts are afraid of fire, and for us, it's like a nightmare - those fires, and then another—" She couldn't go any longer, and there was a 'buzzing' sound in the mist, and apparently many 'people' remembered what Shin Shin had said.

"So what to do?" The third uncle's voice increased, and the surroundings were immediately quiet.

Xinxin didn't speak for a few seconds, then gritted her teeth and said: "I can't deal with him if I join forces with Dongzi and Yaya, but there are so many of us, since he can't come out, we will lure him out and kill him again!" ”

"What are you going to do?" 'Ma Reporter' asked, "If he comes out, what if we can't beat him?" ”

"We can't care so much, we have to fight him desperately, otherwise we won't be able to take revenge!" Xinxin gritted her teeth and said, "Now I'll go in and entangle him, this skin can help me block the power in the tower." And you two—" She pointed to 'Reporter Ma' and 'Liu Hong' on the side, "You go in quietly and take down the porcelain statues of those survivors, but don't hurt them." They are our bait, and when the time comes, the porcelain statue and the body of his sweetheart will be in our hands, and we will destroy whatever we want, and will he not give in? ”

She snorted coldly and walked towards the tower.

Her resentment is higher than the sky and deeper than the sea, and she can't calm her anger without avenging this blood vengeance, so no matter who stands in the way, she will find a way to get rid of him!

Ruan Zhan is very powerful, but this can't stop her action, if she can't use a soft knife, she will simply hit it directly, even if the jade is burned, she will not hesitate!

She walked up firmly, and 'Liu Hong' and 'Ma Reporter' followed not far behind her. I came to the eighth floor, and I happened to see Ruan Zhan walking downstairs!

"Ah Zhan, you're out, are you completely okay?" She immediately put on a smile and took a few quick steps forward.

Hearing her speak, two of her men stopped, hiding in the dark seventh floor.

I saw a gentle smile on Ruan Zhan's face, but his eyes were still looking at the front blankly, "The eyes are still not good, I can only see a little shadow." But I'm glad I can see a little shadow, otherwise—" he sighed, holding out his hand to her, "stay by my side and don't go far." ”

Xinxin hesitantly handed her hand to Ruan Zhan's hand, the warmth of his palm made her feel a little frightened for no reason, "What's wrong?" ”

"That Mao Fu went crazy just now, and he was going to kill me."

"And how are you? Are there any injuries? Xinxin pretended to care and stroked Ruan Zhan's body with one hand to explore his weaknesses. But wherever he goes, as long as he adds a little yin power, he will be bounced away by the invisible spiritual energy in his body, which shows that this tower really can't help him, and he can't help but change his face.

Ruan Zhan grabbed her small hand that was resting on his chest, "Xiao Xia, I warn you, don't touch a man, otherwise the consequences will be - you may misfire and hurt yourself." He said as he took her wrist and clasped her pulse with his middle finger, intentionally or unintentionally. He only felt that the skin on his hand was slippery, which made him feel a little strange, but he knew that this body was no longer his sweetheart.

Xinxin struggled, but did not break free, and was pulled downstairs by Ruan Zhan.

"What's standing by this wall?" Ruan Zhan narrowed his eyes, pulled Xinxin and slowly approached the glass cabinet, "Come to think of it, didn't you say that this is a temple tower?" Is there something that is used in Buddhism? ”

"It's nothing, it's just a cabinet for things, it's empty." Xinxin didn't want Ruan Zhan to continue to get close to the cabinet, for fear that he would find something, but she found that Ruan Zhan's strength was very strong, and she was inevitably pulled to the wall.

The glass on the cabinet was covered with a thick layer of dust, and if you didn't look closely, you couldn't see the faces of the three-inch-tall porcelain figures inside the cabinet in this dim environment. And Ruan Zhan remembered that Xiao Xia was placed on the cabinet facing the stairs, so he pulled the resentful spirit that occupied Xiao Xia's body and ran there directly.

He thought about finding the little porcelain doll, and then quickly swapping the soul back before the spirit could react. However, when he walked to the cabinet, he saw that it was empty, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Where did Natsu go? She's obviously placed here!

However, it was also this stunned time that Xinxin, who had already begun to have doubts, immediately understood Ruan Zhan's intentions, especially the faint light of Ruan Zhan's deep eyes reflected on the dark glass, letting her know that Ruan Zhan's eyes had recovered and recognized her true appearance.

"Dongzi, Yaya, come up." She screamed as she tried her best to break free from Ruan Zhan's grasp.

It's just that the result of her struggle is that she feels a hot current coming from her veins, tying her to death like an invisible rope, and she can't get out at all, whether it's body or soul!

Hearing her call, the two resentful spirits quickly ran to the eighth floor, but Ruan Zhan gave a thunderclap in his palm, and the two resentful spirits immediately screamed and flashed to the side.

They fled in too haste, two black shadows pulled out of their respective bodies, and the bodies of Liu Hong and Reporter Ma froze to the ground. Because without the protection of their bodies, their souls could not stay in the tower for a long time, and immediately floated away.

"What do you say? Ruan Zhan turned his head and looked at the fake Xiaoxia, and the feeling in his heart was very complicated.

He loved this face, this body, which he had dreamed of and wanted to hold in his arms all the time, although he already knew that 'she' was not her at the moment, but he still couldn't be cruel to this body.

Moreover, his current strength is declining again, and after a long time, he will definitely be discovered by this resentful spirit. So, in the Tower, you have to do it quickly!

Mao Fu's assassination made him understand that the wraiths couldn't wait, and they were about to start attacking. He knew that they would definitely take those survivors, mainly Xiao Xialai, to blackmail him, so as soon as he dealt with Mao Fu's affairs, he rushed over. He wanted to get the Xiaoxia porcelain doll first, but he didn't expect to meet the resentful spirit.

He guessed that she must have gotten the news of Mao Fu, and she also came to rob those little porcelain people, so he took advantage of the fake Xiao Xia to test him and took her vein, so that she could not escape from Xiao Xia's body, and then wanted to use all her strength when she got Xiao Xia's porcelain statue to exchange their souls, so that Xiao Xia would be completely safe, and at the same time, he also locked up the resentful spirit who was obviously the leader.

It's just that he didn't expect that Xiao Xia and Ah Bai had been moved by Mao Fu without authorization, and they were not in the original place. This accident was too unexpected for him, but he was stunned for a moment, and he was seen by this extremely alert resentful spirit!

"Let go of me!" The resentful spirit Xinxin twisted her body desperately, Ruan Zhan had to hold her waist tightly with her other hand, but as soon as her cry of pain came out, his heart tightened again, and his hand couldn't help but loosen a little.

At this fleeting moment, Fake Xiaoxia pulled out a hand, and his five fingers immediately transformed into sharp knives like broken porcelain, pointing straight at his throat.

"I know I can't beat you, but don't underestimate porcelain." She said fiercely, "It can not only hurt this body, but it can even cut off this lovely head, which one do you choose?" ”

"You hurt one of her hairs, and I promise you'll be ruined."

"I want to die!" Xinxin sneered a few times, "You can't scare me, but you can't bear this woman, right?" So, you think you've got the upper hand, but in fact you can't roll over. ”

"What do you want?" Ruan Zhan had no choice in his heart, but he was quite calm on the surface.

"Now, let me go." Xinxin looked at Ruan Zhan proudly, "I'll give you a chance, you can roll me down the tower in five minutes, otherwise I will destroy her body, and you will live as a porcelain doll for the rest of your life." ”

Ruan Zhan looked directly into the eyes of the resentful spirit and let go of his hand without hesitation. Seeing him so happy, Xinxin was a little surprised.

"Love this woman so much? Or are you particularly confident? She looked at Ruan Zhan warily.

"Get out of here, don't worry, I won't sneak up on you from behind. At your level, you are not worthy of my despicable means. Ruan Zhan stayed on her eyes coldly, avoiding himself from seeing Xiao Xia's face and being distracted, "You'd better remember, don't hurt her in the slightest, otherwise you may not be afraid of being wiped out, but the one hundred and seventy-three souls outside will be buried together!" I do what I say! ”

Xinxin slowly stepped back, her face white and she didn't speak.

Why didn't she meet such a man? Why is the man she loves so obscene and shameless, and he can sacrifice everything for his career, including her?

This thought made her heart even more fierce, wanting to seek justice from everything in this world, wanting to destroy everything!

Seeing her retreat to the staircase, and then running downstairs, Ruan Zhan felt a sense of loss in vain, thinking in a trance that Xiao Xia had left him, and an indescribable pain rose from the bottom of his heart, as if something had been torn apart! He had to save her, because he couldn't afford to lose her!

If it weren't for Xiao Xia tying the talisman to the doorknob of the dark room to prevent those resentful spirits from attacking him from the door, and buying him time to lift the charm, she would not have been possessed so easily. She could do anything for him, and of course he could do this to her.

But where did she go?

Thinking like this, he looked around and suddenly saw broken porcelain tiles spread out on the floor in front of the cabinet opposite!

His heart contracted violently, and an indescribable fear arose spontaneously. If these broken porcelain pieces were formed after the porcelain statue in which Xiao Xia was stored was broken, it proved that she was dead, then what was he going to do?

He couldn't help but walk over, squatted down to observe the broken porcelain, stretched out his hand and touched it gently, and didn't know what to do for a while. But just then, he heard a small voice calling out to him, causing him to jerk to his feet.

"Natsu-chan!" Through the blurred glass, Ruan Zhan saw that Xiao Xia's porcelain statue was well placed there. He immediately took her in his hand, put her to his lips and kissed her, and then held her up to eye level, "Now follow me, no one can hurt you again unless I die!" ”

"Where to go?" Natsu felt his love and wasn't at all afraid of what he had to face.

"It's time to clean up the spirits." Ruan Zhan said, carefully placing Xiao Xia in the pocket of his jacket close to his chest, and then picked up Ah Bai and Ma Reporter and put them in the left and right pockets respectively, and then walked out of the tower.

In the mountains and forests.

A tall man stumbled along, all the way, all the way and cursed in a low voice, it was Wanli.

It's not that he has to walk such an unfamiliar mountain road at night, there is really a very important reason. First of all, he was going to do a monkey show to Sima Nan during the day, and secondly, he had to investigate Master Long's affairs according to the loophole in Feng Yongzi's speech that day. Finally, the hard work paid off, and finally found out the whereabouts of Master Long, but it was almost dusk.

Ruan Zhan and Xiao Xia's life and death are uncertain, he has to seize every second, although he has to beware of making mistakes in his busy work like last time, but he still can't delay time, so he has to run deep into the mountains in the middle of the night.

In the eyes of the townspeople, this is tantamount to helping the town change its feng shui, so he treats him as a god-like figure. However, he was extremely mysterious, and almost no one knew him among the young people, and not many of the older people had seen him in person.

He was like a hermit out of step with the world.

As the old saying goes: the small is hidden in the wilderness, and the big is hidden in the court. Wanli makeup, stealing, stealing, tracking, and inducing interrogation were all used, only to find out that Master Long lived in the mountains.

He came out of the town, and when he reached the foot of the mountain, it was already dark. After inquiring about the road in the village at the foot of the mountain, the villagers told him that the old man who lived on the mountain was a craftsman who made puppets by hand, and advised him to stay in the village for one night and not to run up the mountain at night.

He pretended to say that he would go up the mountain in a few days, but now he just inquired, and then walked back to the town. When he was sure that no one was looking, he went up the hill again. At this time, when he looked at the fluorescence watch he had specially bought, it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening.

From the map, the mountain is not high, but when you really climb it, you know how difficult it is. He was unfamiliar with the road, and he couldn't find a guide, but tonight was a bit cloudy, not to mention the moon, and there wasn't even a star, so he could only rely on the experience of the field fixed-point game he had played before, and take the compass to find the way.

He walked in circles and circles, detouring many wrongful roads, and the fierce mountain mosquitoes bit him all over his long clothes and trousers, making him sore and itchy, until it was nearly midnight, and he had not found the dwelling place of Master Long. But just when he thought he was about to hang up, a little light suddenly appeared not far ahead. It is said to be a light, but it is flowing; It is said to be a ghost fire, but the light of the fire is a warm yellow light, not a green phosphorescence.

Whatever it is, go over and see!

Wan Liyi gritted his teeth and walked towards the firelight.

It was a relatively flat ground in the mountain forest, and when Wanli saw the fire, he was standing on a hillside, so although he looked close, it was not so easy to walk. Looking closer, I saw that behind the flowing lights there was indeed a house, which occupied a large area, and it was pitch black, looking like a pile of huge stones piled up at random, but it felt like a tomb.

The strangest thing is that the lights are all outside the house, but inside the house is lifeless, there is not a single light!

Did the owner of the house sleep? So why light up outside the house? Is it to prevent the beast? But the mountain is relatively small, and there are no wild beasts at all!

Wanli wanted to walk as he could, but he felt that the road under his feet was very difficult, and there were waist-deep weeds everywhere, and it seemed that few people came to this place, and not a single path could be found. Just as he was thinking about how the people in the house would get in and out of the house when the road was so difficult, the lights in front of him suddenly disappeared!

It was only a split second, but the lights went out without warning!

Standing in the grass, he immediately lost his sense of purpose, and it was pitch black all around, only the rustle of the grass and the sigh of the wind were heard!
