Chapter 10: Madness



Bai Ningning instructed Zhuo Yang to remove part of the words on the door, but left the part that scolded Cheng Jingwu.

She couldn't see Ma Juan, so she didn't dare to take the ghost hairpin and tried to give it to Lu Yu.

But she sadly discovered that no matter how many times she handed the hairpin over, it would return to her pocket after a while, as if it were automatically transmitted.

Lu Yu was also numb: "I'll leave you here first. You have to follow me all day... Follow Mu Yang, just don't get lost."

Zhuo Yang tried to communicate with Ma Juan and found that Ma Juan only recognized Bai Ningning. She was a little emotional and insulted every male indiscriminately, thinking that none of them were good people.

Zhuo Yang looked at Bai Ningning with sympathy, removing the part that made Ma Juan excited, and said tactfully: "Sister Juan may regard you as a substitute for her daughter. She just wants to be with you. If you don't agree, she will make a fuss."

Bai Ningning: “…”

With Lu Yu's strength, he could easily help Ma Juan to be reincarnated on the spot.

But this would cut off the clues, and we couldn't find out why there was a ghost here in the middle of the night, nor could we find out who was behind it - such a large gathering of ghosts must have been set up by someone behind the scenes.

Bai Ningning accepted her fate and decided to follow Lu Yu closely. If Lu Yu also jumped off the building, she would drag Zhuo Yang with her.

[In fact, Ningning has already subdued Ma Juan. Ma Juan only listens to her. She will be of great use tonight.]

Ningning just glared at Zhuo Yang. Was she warning him not to cause trouble tonight?

Bai Ningning:...What?

It has been said that excessive understanding is not advisable!

The freshmen did not find anything unusual in the office, but they felt that there were an incredible number of ghosts in this area. Someone suggested preparing a ten-direction salvation formation to gather all the ghosts in this area and catch them all in one fell swoop.

But no one was good at formation design, so this important task fell on Yuan Muyang and Zhuo Yang.

Lu Yu went to the top floor to check Cheng Jingwu's office. Bai Ningning thought that Yuan Muyang and Zhuo Yang were there, so she didn't want to run upstairs and stayed in the office where they designed the formation.

Bai Ningning casually said, "I suggest you search every corner of the building first. There might be something you missed."

After all, she could see ghosts just by walking around.

Outrageous.

Fang Kuida happened to have brought back the materials and walked into the office holding a jar of Vermillion Bird Sand, which was an important material for the Ten Directions Salvation Formation.

Fang Kuida put the things next to her and said in a bad tone, "What a waste of time! We don't have enough time. Besides, we checked this building twice from yesterday to today and didn't find anything special."

Zhuo Yang kindly reminded: "I advise you to speak less."

Fang Kuida became even more rebellious: "You're not allowed to speak? There's nothing wrong in the first place. She's standing and talking without any pain in her back. She's giving orders blindly!"

Bai Ningning sneered.

No unusual behavior? Where did all those ghosts in the building come from last night? Why did she encounter ghosts just by walking a few steps?

If there is nothing unusual, there must be something wrong!

Ningning had already realized that the formation set up by these students was completely useless, and she was already thinking about how to deal with them.

[If you are watching for the first time, please turn off the barrage quickly, there are a lot of foreshadowing here, and it is easy to spoil the plot]

Ningning has seen through everything, but these people won't listen to her at all. They are really a hopeless case.

[Great! Looking forward to Ningning playing the pig and eating the tiger tonight]

[Ningning's apparent level: 0, actual level: ???]

Bai Ningning: “?”

The barrage started talking nonsense again.

She was just using her academic habits as a top student to remind this group of people to read the questions carefully before doing them and to prepare well before studying.

After Lu Yu checked around, he decided to interrogate Ma Juan, leaving only Bai Ningning, Yuan Muyang and Zhuo Yang in the office.

Bai Ningning couldn't see, but she was very curious: "Can I ask Sister Juan what happened at night?"

Zhuo Yang wondered: "What night?"

Bai Ningning hesitated for two seconds, then said, "Cuckold disco."

Zhuo Yang: "...You are such a genius at naming."

Ten seconds later, Zhuo Yang's expression cracked. "She said it really was a ghost disco, and if a ghost came wearing a hat, she would definitely paint the hat green."

Everyone: “…”

Lu Yu fell into deep thought: "This isn't right... How could so many ghosts gather here?"

According to Ma Juan's description, these ghosts naturally gathered at Ninghua Finance, and have been coming to dance at a fixed time and place every night recently.

The more Lu Yu thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. There must be something here that she hadn't discovered.

At night, Bai Ningning, Yuan Muyang, and Zhuo Yang were waiting for the ghost tide to come at the gate of Ninghua Financial Company. The others were scattered in the two buildings next door, watching the situation. Lu Yu was on the top floor of Ninghua Financial to support them.

Bai Ningning felt particularly cold and put on another thick coat. She was used to being a bait, so even in summer she had to carry some thick clothes with her to avoid being frozen by the yin energy.

She looked up at the sky: "Is it my imagination? Why is it darker today than yesterday?"

It was only one in the morning, and it was so dark that I couldn't even see a star.

Zhuo Yang looked up and said casually, "Maybe the city is too polluted?"

Bai Ningning wrapped herself up in a ball and squatted on the ground: "Anyway, I won't go in today no matter what."

There's no way to escape in the company, it's so scary.

"Shh." Yuan Muyang looked around vigilantly.

The wind was blowing coldly and the shadows of the trees were swaying.

Bai Ningning silently wrapped herself more tightly, with half of her head tucked into her clothes.

In her eyes, these shadows were no different from ferocious monsters.

Yao Mao, who was on the sixth floor of the building next door, saw the tide of ghosts coming from all directions. His pupils constricted and he quickly called Yuan Muyang and the other two to tell them to run away.

There were more ghosts today than yesterday! Ghosts were everywhere, and they were surrounded by them.

"No signal." Yao Mao gritted his teeth and put down the phone. He wanted to shout but didn't dare.

Now that he had shouted out loud, these waves of ghosts would definitely be attracted to them, and the great salvation formation prepared at Ninghua Finance would be completely useless.

The three people downstairs can only fend for themselves.

Bai Ningning shivered from the cold: "There are too many ghosts today...Have you opened your vagina?"

"No."

Yuan Muyang also felt that something was wrong. He was not sure whether there was something wrong with the building or Bai Ningning was too attractive to ghosts.

He glanced at Bai Ningning and saw that her eyes were still a little confused and she was still looking into the distance. It was obvious that she had not found where the ghost was.

Zhuo Yang gasped: "It's still not too late to run to the next building."

He didn't know why Yuan Muyang insisted on waiting at the gate. Everything was obviously ready, and it would be safer to wait in the building next door.

Yuan Muyang looked at Bai Ningning and hesitated.

He was not sure whether this group of ghosts were coming for the "bait" in the building or for Bai Ningning.

He made double preparations. There was a bait formation in the building to attract ghosts, commonly known as the ghost gathering formation; Bai Ningning was placed outside the building. The original plan was to let Bai Ningning lead these ghosts into the formation inside the building and activate the Ten Directions Salvation Formation.

But they didn't expect that there would be so many ghosts, much more than they had expected.

Everyone thought that the number of ghosts today would be less than yesterday, at most the same as yesterday; but Yuan Muyang ignored the opposition and made preparations for twice the amount of yesterday.

Even so, it was still an underestimate. Judging from the Yin energy he felt, it was probably more than three times as strong.

"Run!" Yuan Muyang pulled Bai Ningning and ran towards Ninghua Financial's company.

"Hey--" Zhuo Yang shouted, hesitating whether to follow them or turn around to join Yao Mao and the others.

The Ten Directions Salvation Formation needs to be manually activated by someone outside. It is difficult to judge based on the number of ghosts today. Ninghua Finance is in great danger before the formation is activated.

Zhuo Yang gritted his teeth and followed them into Ninghua Finance. Bai Ningning didn't see any ghosts, so one more person meant at least one more helper.

Yao Mao and others who were watching upstairs immediately breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, running anywhere was better than standing still.

But the next moment, the huge stone in their hearts was lifted up again - some ghosts did not bypass the building where they were, and even had a tendency to go upstairs and surround them.

There were so many ghosts that by the time Yao Mao realized the direction of the ghosts, it was already too late.

On the top floor of Ninghua Finance, Yuan Muyang was also under a lot of pressure.

If the number of ghosts had only doubled, he would still be confident that he could take Bai Ningning away safely, but now it has more than tripled, and he might not be able to protect himself.

Zhuo Yang's face turned pale: "These ghosts have gone crazy..."

Berserk will temporarily increase the ghost's ability by one or two levels, which is quite dangerous.

With such a huge number of ghosts, all going crazy, he didn't have to hesitate where to run, he could just wait to die on the spot.

They're probably going to be wiped out here.

Bai Ningning stretched out her hand towards Yuan Muyang: "Where's the evil-repelling orb?"

Yuan Muyang took out a wooden box covered with seals from his pocket, and the evil-warding orb was inside.

Bai Ningning took it out and threw it into the lobby on the first floor.
