The Ghost of the Pen Fairy (VII)

There are many tangled branches in the dead woods, blocking out the sun, and the broken brick road underfoot has been in disrepair for many years and is full of potholes.

Therefore, He Guang and Mo Liuying walked very slowly.

He Guang turned on the exorcism flashlight but didn't have much confidence in it, and thought about replacing it with an upgraded version when he returned this time.

Mo Liuying couldn't help but look back again. There was still darkness behind her. She felt as if something was following them, but every time she looked back there was nothing. This made her begin to wonder if she was seeing enemies everywhere.

Just then, she felt her trouser leg caught by a branch. She lowered her head to pull it but her face changed instantly, because it was not a branch at all, but a piece of dry bone.

She took a deep breath and closed her eyes, and when she opened them again the bones were still there.

It’s not an illusion?

It seems that no matter whether the rumor is true or not, it is a fact that someone died in the Deadwood Forest.

He Guang also came over. She reached out and pulled away the vines on the ground, revealing a basically complete human skeleton. Judging from the clothes, it seemed to be an old school uniform.

"I don't know how long the person has been dead here?"

Mo Liuying turned around and looked at the entrance to the Deadwood Forest. "He died so close to the intersection. What kind of force trapped him here? It's really scary."

I told Guangxin that it must be a bad creature, and when I catch it, I will definitely give it a good beating.

The two continued to walk forward. Mo Liuying felt a sense of malicious prying eyes surrounding her. Even He Guang seemed to be affected. She kept looking around, but no longer shouted the names of the two missing people as loudly as before.

But the forest was too dark, and the light from He Guang's cell phone could only illuminate the ground under their feet, so in the end the two had to walk hand in hand.

Because if they fall behind by just one step, they won't be able to see each other.

There seemed to be a corner ahead, with a tree leaning sideways and a vine forming a circle hanging above it.

But although it looks like a hanging rope, there is no one hanging on it.

Mo Liuying took two more steps, her intuition getting worse and worse. If it could sound an alarm, it would be almost screaming at her to turn around and run. "He Guang, don't... go any further."

He Guang's footsteps obediently stopped, which made the audience who had been watching with bated breath breathe a sigh of relief.

【Tense throughout the process】

[The heroine finally said this. God knows if it were me, I would have screamed and run back.]

[I am also inexplicably afraid]

[This forest is so scary, I don’t even dare to enter it in broad daylight]

He Guang didn't look back. She seemed to be staring at the vines in front of her. "Student Mo, do you feel it now?"

Mo Liuying breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that the other person would suddenly turn around and become another person. This is also a classic routine in horror movies.

Fortunately, she was overthinking it.

"What?"

"We are like small animals being chased into a hunting ground." He Guang's eyes were fixed on the dead woods in front of him. "Not only are there birds of prey stronger than us, but there are also hunters watching us."

Mo Liuying had been unable to describe her uneasiness just now, but now she found that there was no more appropriate description than this sentence. She even felt that this was not a metaphor, but a fact.

"us……"

Mo Liuying wanted to say, we have to go back, because she had a feeling that some danger was about to come, and they would most likely not be able to find the two missing people, and she would also be in danger.

But at this moment, another strange feeling came over her heart. She couldn't describe it for a moment, but she instinctively wanted to escape.

He Guang seemed to sense something as well and stretched out his arms to block her behind him. It was an instinctive action.

The next moment, she pulled Mo Liuying and turned and ran.

Mo Liuying tried hard to keep up with her. She didn't even look back when she felt something was chasing them.

The thing was getting closer and closer, sticking to their backs, and cold sweat instantly broke out on Mo Liuying's palms and back.

She didn't even scream when the head appeared just now, but now that she saw nothing, she instinctively wanted to scream and tremble.

Suddenly, He Guang pushed Mo Liuying to the ground, and the two of them fell on the snow-covered brick road. It seemed that something brushed past their heads.

Mo Liuying looked up and was startled. He Guang's hair was loose and the hairband on her head seemed to be cut off by something, and a strand of hair fell down with it.

He Guang didn't care about this, and stretched out his hand to pull Mo Liuying up, but his action instantly turned into pulling out the Exorcist Wu San from his body and turning around to hit him hard.

Two dry bones appeared on her and Mo Liuying's backs at some point, almost sticking close to their backs and piercing through their chests.

With the blow from the light, they were like being hit hard and instantly turned into powder.

Mo Liuying didn't notice what was happening behind her. She only felt as if an invisible sharp blade was coming towards her.

The invisible sharp blade cut straight towards her throat. She felt it, but her body froze in fear, unable to dodge and too late to hide.

But at the last moment, that thing seemed to be offset by something, and the airflow caused by the collision of the two forces lifted her hair.

She instinctively looked at He Guang, but He Guang had a confused look on his face.

Could it be that another supernatural force saved them?

Before she had time to think about it, He Guang helped her up again and she took several steps back.

And where they were standing just now, it was as if some invisible force swept over, and the snow on the ground was blown up again, as if it was going to cover the sky and the earth.

Then, a sound like breaking glass or the collision of weapons was heard. The sound was not harsh, but it seemed to come from all directions.

Mo Liuying only felt a moment of trance, and then completely lost consciousness.

He Guang seemed to have expected this and reached out to catch the person steadily.

The process was basically silent, but the audience in front of the screen were all sweating.

They were not at the scene and did not have that kind of direct feeling, but their perspective was clearer than Mo Liuying's, unlike her who could only judge what happened based on intuition.

They saw the confrontation clearly. Although they didn't know where the two forces came from, they could not understand why the two girls almost died twice within one minute.

Some people also noticed that there was snowflakes on the live broadcast screen at that moment, although it was only for a moment.

[Fuck, this feels so dangerous, the host and the female lead went through two rounds of hell]

[The host is really good at this]

[If I didn’t have this skill, I wouldn’t just be walking around the gates of hell twice, I’d probably end up in hell.]

[On the feasibility of training to improve survival in horror movies]

[What's wrong with the anchor? Are you all right? 】

[I don’t know what happened, but strangely my hands are shaking as I type]

【I feel very anxious when watching this】

[Did no one notice that something seemed to have helped the anchors block a wave of attacks just now?]

Kazuhiko looked up amidst the falling snow. "It's the system. I feel it's fighting a powerful enemy."

The audience in the parallel universe were all stunned in front of the screen.

"Oh, damn it!" Not long after she finished speaking, she heard the system's voice, "Host, my dear friend, you can't stay in this hellish place that will shorten your life for long. Take these three away quickly."

"Three?" He Guang picked up Mo Liuying from the ground, "The other two are nowhere to be seen, System-kun."

"Take the heroine out first." The system's voice was mixed with the reverberation of electricity. "You can't carry three at a time."

"But it's not safe for Mr. Mo to leave me." Although He Guang said this, he still did it.

"It doesn't matter. People tend to avoid danger and so do ghosts. We make such a big noise that other ghosts in the old campus will instinctively avoid us." The system seemed to have sped up its speech speed, and it would be easy to miss a word if one was distracted.

"Go quickly and come back soon."

"OK."

He Guang accepted it all without asking any questions.

The audience had a lot of questions, but since the situation was obviously urgent, they could only hold them in for the time being.

[System, is it really a system? ]

【The system is finally online】

[I felt that things had changed dramatically, but I was watching the whole thing but still didn’t know what was going on. Do you understand this feeling?]

[Dear, we understand]

[Today’s matter is not simple]

[I really admire those of you who can still think rationally. Now I just want to scream like a groundhog. Carry me like a princess. Carry me like a princess.]

[Don't say it, the host's strength is really not to be underestimated]

[The anchor looks good with her hair down. Her eyes changed the moment her hair was down]

【Simply full of aura】

He Guang didn't care what the barrage was saying at this time. She carried Mo Liuying to a place a little further away from the dead woods and quickly ran back.

The murderous attack just now was so swift that even she felt nervous. She didn't think her two classmates would be able to avoid it if they encountered it.

He was also afraid that if he ran too slowly, Mo Liuying would be taken away by the ghost again.

Returning to the deadwood forest, following the system's instructions, He Guang found two people who were also unconscious in deeper areas.

"They have been extremely frightened, and their souls may be unstable," said the system.

He Guang didn't bother to check their conditions, and carried one on his shoulder, "Will there be any bad effects?"

It was so dark in the dead woods that it seemed as if no light could get in. When He Guang turned off the flashlight, it gave the illusion that the whole world was plunged into darkness.

But she had no hands free, so she could only walk like this. She had to get out of the woods as quickly as possible and pay attention to her feet at all times, otherwise three people would fall down if she was not careful.

"You will get seriously ill, suffer from memory loss, and be in a trance for a long time." said the system.

He Guang paused, "…As long as they are alive, it's good. System-kun, did you protect them?"

The system said, "I can only help you a little bit. You are very brave, but you can't come to the Forest of No Return next time. I believe your intuition must have warned you that this place is very dangerous."

Its voice sounded unprecedentedly solemn and serious, and other viewers could feel it through the screen.

He Guang responded obediently, "I understand."

After that, the system stopped talking again. He Guang did not ask any more questions. He turned around and glanced at Ku Mulin, muttering, "Oh, and him..."

[This broken forest is so scary]

[It’s a pity that the system picked the anchor. Even if a boy came, he wouldn’t be able to carry one person on his shoulders.]

[If I hadn’t said it, I would have admired the host.]

【Who else】

[The system is silent again]

After He Guang arranged for the three unconscious people, he trotted back to the dead woods.

The audience thought she was going to go into the woods to find something to fight with, and they all advised her not to do it. Although it was the second live broadcast, they had a thorough understanding of He Guang's boldness.

He Guang smiled and said no, then ran to the edge of the woods and dug out the corpse he had just seen from the snow and vines.

The audience then understood what she was going to do.

[Anchor, you have to take him out]

"Yes." He Guang rubbed his almost frozen fingers, took off his coat and wrapped the corpse in it.

“When he was alive, he must have wanted to leave this damn place.

Even though it’s many years late, he will definitely be very happy now that he knows it.”

After that, she clasped her hands together and said solemnly, "May you rest in peace."
