Chapter 17: The Hunchbacked Old Man

Beiluo Shimen led the way in front, and Kaka and I followed closely and chased after them. Kaka asked me as she ran, "Where did you get this civet?" ”

I smiled and said, "I raise it at home." ”

Kaka gave me a blank look, said a cut, and ignored me. ran across the playground, and saw a figure in front of him from a distance, like Wu Qingqing.

Her figure is extremely fast, and between leaps, she is very sensitive, which is not much more sensitive than that of the Beiluo Master. Seeing this, Kaka couldn't help but say, "It seems that our Spirit Society is also the land of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!" ”

I think so, looking at Wu Qingqing's body, I think I have practiced light body kung fu since I was a child, and parkour generally crosses all obstacles. Kaka and I kept picking up speed, but we still couldn't close the distance between us and her.

It's a frightening speed.

Beyond the playground is the newly built gymnasium, and beyond that, there is a towering poplar forest. At this time, it was pitch black, and it looked extremely terrifying. We chased here, and we lost the trace of Wu Qingqing. Even if he falls to the north, he doesn't know where to follow.

"Beiluo Division?"

I shouted, and there was silence in the darkness, and no sound was heard.

Kaka said angrily: "Your cat is so unreliable, how did you raise it!" ”

I didn't bother to raise the bar with her, and walked straight into the woods. Seeing this, Kaka had no choice but to follow up.

There is a path in the woods, paved with cobblestones. I only brought a miniature flashlight to illuminate a small piece in front of me, and with my faint mental connection with Beiluo Shimen, I felt the general direction and followed.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but I just feel that there is a dull atmosphere in this forest, which makes people very uncomfortable. I released my aura to sense, but there was nothing.

After walking in the dark for a while, Kaka suddenly grabbed me and said, "Wait, do you feel that something is wrong?" ”

I stopped to take a closer look, and sure enough, I noticed something strange.

The place was so quiet that there was not a single sound.

This season is the time when all kinds of autumn insects sing in chorus, and no matter day or night, you can hear the murmuring of autumn insects. But there was none, as if there was nothing alive except the two of us.

I thought for a moment and asked, "Is that the place where supernatural events often occur that Zhu Xiaobei said, including here?" ”

Kaka shook his head and said, "I don't think so, but I'm new here, and I'm not familiar with this place, so I don't know if this piece belongs to the scope of what she said." ”

I took a closer look around and it was so dark that I couldn't even tell the difference between east and west, north and south. Kaka asked, "What, scared and want to go back?" ”

I said, "No, anyway, I have to find the Beiluo Master Gate first, I don't want to worry about it running around outside......

As I spoke, Kaka grabbed my arm, dragged me behind a tree, grabbed the flashlight to turn it off, and motioned for me to keep quiet.

I was so confused by her that I was busy asking what I was doing, and I heard her say in a low voice, "I seem to see the light in front of me." ”

I hurriedly followed the direction of her finger, and sure enough, I saw a glimmer of light in the distance. But the light was very faint, and gradually it was extinguished again, and the surroundings fell into a dead darkness again.

Could it be that Wu Qingqing made it? Kaka and I looked at each other, and without saying a word, we both reached in that direction. In order to prevent detection, we did not turn on the flashlight. Walking in such darkness is quite difficult. Fortunately, I have a keen aura, and there are not many weeds here except for tall trees, which will not affect my movements.

The forest wasn't really big, and soon we were at the edge of the woods. When I hid behind a tree and looked forward, I saw a tall water tower standing in a barren meadow!

I'm chasel! This is really the evil place that Zhu Xiaobei said, and we didn't know what was going on, so we broke in like this. There is no way, if it comes, it will be safe. Looking through the cold starlight, I saw that there was a cobblestone path behind the water tower, and the holly and cypress trees had not been pruned for a long time and grew very tall.

Further on, there is an artificial lake. Small bridges and flowing water, as well as gazebos. After crossing the arch bridge, on the opposite side of the small lake, there was a small red house, which I don't know what it was for.

I sensed that the Beiluo Shimen should be in an unknown place on the opposite side of the lake, so I walked around the water tower and walked towards the small lake. Although this place is evil and often kills, it is not taken seriously by people like us who have special skills.

If there is really something evil, it is better not to provoke us, otherwise, it will be overdone in minutes.

The water of the lake is also lifeless, without a trace of life. Kaka and I had just walked to the arch bridge when we heard a mournful shout from behind us: "Stop! ”

This low cry appeared very suddenly, and in this place where it was as silent as death, suddenly I remembered it, and I was so frightened that Kaka's legs shook and I almost fell into the water. Hurriedly looked back, and was even more surprised.

Behind us, I don't know when there was a short, dry hunchbacked old man! This old man is dry like an old firewood, about one meter and a half. He was wearing an old-fashioned Zhongshan suit, and his back was almost bent at 90 degrees. His face was wrinkled like orange peel, and a pair of small eerie eyes looked at us coldly.

In the hands of the hunchbacked old man, he carried an old-fashioned horse lamp, the kind that burns kerosene, which was smoky and black, and shone with a faint light.

How did this hunchbacked old man end up behind us? Why don't Kaka and I feel the slightest feeling? Although the range of my aura is not large, it also has a radius of about ten meters, but I don't feel the slightest appearance of people approaching.

This hunchbacked old man seemed to appear out of thin air. When I saw his outfit and the lamp he was carrying, I calmed down a little, secretly lucked Donkey Kong's demon hand, and asked tentatively, "Are you a human or a ghost?" ”

The hunchbacked old man looked at me with cold eyes, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Old man, I asked you, you came to ask me." In the middle of the night, what are you two doing here? ”

Kaka grinned, hugged my arm and said, "Uncle, we're dating here." ”

The hunchbacked old man snorted coldly and reprimanded: "Children don't study hard, do some indiscriminate things. You're bold, you're a freshman, aren't you? I don't know the rules here! ”

Kaka laughed and said, "Yo! Uncle, you have such good eyesight, you can see at a glance that we are new students. That's right, I just reported for duty two days ago. Uncle, what are the rules here? ”

The hunchbacked old man looked like he hated iron but not steel, sighed, and said, "I'll tell you that you know, old man, remember next time." This place doesn't come at night, it's haunted! Quite a few people have already died here. Listen to me, get back in! If you want to go on a date and open a house outside, what are you doing here! ”

Kaka and I were embarrassed for a while, but luckily it was dark and no one could see me blushing. Kaka was generous, grinning and saying, "Okay, okay, let's go." Hey, by the way, uncle, since this place is haunted, then you dare to come here alone at night, aren't you afraid? ”

The hunchbacked old man laughed and said, "I have lived all my life, old man, and I have never seen anything evil!" Old man, my life is very hard, those evil things don't dare to provoke me, but I like you young people very much, with fine skin and tender meat, delicious! ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but shudder! Could it be that there are still man-eating evil creatures here?

At this moment, a wolf howl was heard again in the night sky, followed by a terrible cat cry.

"Beiluo Shimen!"

I was shocked in my heart, this was the cry of the Beiluo Division. Listening to this movement, it seems that it is not far from here.

I was about to catch up, but Kaka grabbed me and said, "Holy! And what about the hunchbacked old man? ”

When I turned around again, my heart pounded, and I saw that the place where the hunchbacked old man was standing was empty. The hunchbacked old man appeared out of thin air and disappeared out of thin air!

"Is this guy a human or a ghost?"

Kaka said: "He is carrying a lamp, and there is his shadow on the ground, so he should not be a ghost." However, although he has no ghost aura on him, he also has no popularity! ”

I was worried that Beiluo Shimen would be in danger, so I said: "Whether he is a human or a ghost, in short, it didn't hurt us, leave him alone for the time being, go to Beiluo Shimen first." ”

The two of us crossed the arched bridge, bypassed the little red house, and through the clutter of bushes, a wall appeared in front of us. Are they outside of school?

The wall is more than three meters high, but for us, it is not a problem at all. One after another, they rushed up to the other side of the wall.

Outside, there was a wasteland, stacked with large stacks of bricks, sand, stones, cement slabs, etc., and it was obviously a construction site that had not yet started. A dull roar came from behind the tall sand.

Kaka and I climbed up the sand and looked down, gasping at the sight.

I saw a huge wolf-type monster in a clearing, angrily chasing the petite and flexible Beiluo Master. And Wu Qingqing was lying on the ground next to him at this time, not knowing his life or death.

The tall wolf-like monster was two meters tall, and its muscles bulged like a hill. The sharp claws shimmered like scimitars, and the black bristles of steel needles stood up one by one. Its eyes were red as blood, its roar was like thunder, and its body was as fast as lightning. Chasing Beiluo's division gate and running all over the ground.

Beiluo Shimen is not easy to deal with, the body is small and exquisite, and the speed is better. It leaps and ounces, waiting for an opportunity to attack the wolf's weak point, the eye! The wolf monster is also dexterous, always dodging at the last moment.

"What is this?" I couldn't help but ask.

Kaka frowned and muttered, "It's strange, how can there be werewolves here?" ”

Werewolf? I remember, I used to watch it in movies. The famous movie "Tales of the Night" tells the story of werewolves and vampires. But at this time, a werewolf appeared in China, and I couldn't accept it.

Seeing that the Beiluo Division Sect could not shake this strong werewolf, he shouted: "The Beiluo Division!" I'm here to help! ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I urged Donkey Kong to subdue the demon, jumped down from the sand, and slapped the werewolf on the head. The werewolf turned around, screamed, and leaped at me......
