There is no way. After all, it is Su Xiaoniu's soul. If she absorbs enough souls and becomes independent, Su Xiaoniu herself will disappear. Can I just abandon her?
"Touch her crown!" Su Xiaoniu said in a serious tone.
I nodded, gripped the Tianpeng Ruler tightly, and quickly rushed behind Po. At that moment, Po was absorbing the taxi driver's soul and hadn't noticed what was behind him. I took the opportunity and without hesitation, pushed the ruler down. There was a crisp "snap" sound, accompanied by a scream from Po, and he fell to the ground, holding his head and rolling over.
While rolling over, she said to me helplessly: "Don't... don't hit me... I'm a girl... I'm a girl..."
My heart trembled suddenly, and I suddenly felt a little bit reluctant. Even if she was a soul, she was still Su Xiaoniu after all... I held the Tianpeng ruler tightly in my hand, and couldn't make a move.
However, seeing that I was hesitant, Su Xiaoniu became angry. She suddenly controlled my body, stepped over, and suddenly grabbed the pitiful Po who was looking at me, and said coldly: "It's obviously my Po, and you have such a pitiful expression. You are so disrespectful to me!"
As I spoke, I mercilessly struck the Tianpeng ruler on Po's crown with my other hand. Two slaps, plus the one I had struck earlier, made a total of three.
Su Xiaoniu's soul screamed towards the sky a few times, and her whole body began to tremble. Soon, she turned into a stream of light and was sucked in by Su Xiaoniu.
After collecting the soul, Su Xiaoniu also released her control over me. Then she said in a very aggrieved tone: "No... She has absorbed too many souls from living people. I have to digest them. Be careful."
I said "Oh", and I knew that Su Xiaoniu was going to "retreat" again, which means that I can only rely on myself now!
I turned around and saw the boatman, Feng Ling and Qiao Xiaomu looking at me with horror, as if they had seen some big devil... Perhaps, they had seen Su Xiaoniu absorbing souls before, so they thought it was me who was absorbing souls, and regarded me as a monster that could absorb the souls of living people!
At this point, I was too lazy to argue. I went up and kicked the taxi driver, but luckily, he was still alive. He trembled and climbed to his feet. When he saw me, he begged for mercy: "Uncle, I won't do it again. I came to find my friend. Please spare my life!"
I patted my backpack and said, "Where's my money?"
The taxi driver said with a sad face, "It's already...spent. But don't worry, as long as I can get out alive tonight, I'll give you my kidney!"
"Why are you back?"
"We stole your bag and left the village, but just two days ago, my friend suddenly returned to the village with strange behavior and ran towards the back of the woods. I followed him in, and not long after, he disappeared. I felt weird and wanted to leave, but I never thought I would get lost. I only returned to the village now, and I never thought I would encounter something like this..."
Is this so bizarre? I was secretly shocked and said, "Your friend is dead." Then I walked to the side and checked the others who fell to the ground. Unfortunately, they were all dead because their souls had been sucked away.
I sighed. I finally rescued them, but they still died in the end.
Forget it, since I have the rotten grass, the most important thing now is to leave this ghost village as soon as possible. I immediately said to the taxi driver, "Where is your car?"
The taxi driver didn't seem surprised by his friend's death. He pointed outside the village and said, "Outside the village!"
I told him to hurry with me. The boatman, Feng Ling, and Qiao Xiaomu saw me heading out of the village and hurried over. Feng Ling walked up to me and asked quietly, "Those people..."
"They're all dead." I said decisively.
"Ah?" Feng Ling seemed startled. No wonder, the reason these people died was somewhat related to her, but I couldn't blame her entirely, so I didn't say anything. I just wanted to get out of here quickly!
Qiao Xiaomu suddenly said, "Isn't it a bad idea to dump the body in the open air like this?"
I said depressedly, "We can't even leave this village alive now. Let's just dump the body. I'll have Officer Feng bring people to deal with it another day."
Feng Ling nodded and said, "Well, it's better for us to leave this village first!"
The taxi driver nodded in agreement: "Good idea! My car is right outside, come with me."
We hurried out of the village. It was around two or three in the morning, and the sky was dark. In this deserted and silent village, the only sound we could hear was our footsteps. There was only one small path leading from the village to the outside. There was a bridge in the middle, and below was a pond, connecting to the lake behind the village. The surrounding area was covered with trees and vines.
We were walking on this small path, and just as we stepped onto the bridge, the taxi driver and Qiao Xiaomu and others suddenly screamed. I thought something was wrong, but when I went up to take a look, I found that several bloody and scary faces were reflected on the surface of the pond under the bridge.
