Thinking of this, Xiao Jin turned and walked to the other side.
From a distance, she saw a long-tongued ghost.
The other person's tongue dragged on the ground like a blood-red whip, leaving gruesome marks as it smeared across the stone slabs.
The tongue was still trembling slightly, as if carrying endless resentment and a bloodthirsty desire.
At this moment, the long-tongued demon was grinning maliciously, a chilling curve appearing at the corner of his mouth, his eyes bloodshot.
Its hands, like two sharp axes, were rapidly chopping at a small wooden door decorated with sunflower patterns.
Each swing was accompanied by a deafening roar, and wood chips flew everywhere like a dense barrage of arrows.
It won't be long before it demolishes that house.
Seeing this, Xiao Jin didn't go around it, but strode over...
It was a small and exquisite sunflower-themed cottage. The house was not big, and the small wooden door was only big enough for one person to bend over and enter.
However, at this moment, this small door became the target of the long-tongued demon's rampage, and every slash made the hut tremble, as if it would collapse at any moment.
The interior of the cabin is even more cramped, barely enough to accommodate an adult squatting inside.
Through the crack in the door, one could vaguely see a hand gripping a weapon tightly.
The player was a rather thin male. He was helplessly covering his mouth, hiding inside with a look of terror on his face. His body was trembling violently from fear, and he didn't even dare to breathe.
Damn it...
The skinny male player desperately wanted to lean back, but the room was only so big.
If he hadn't suddenly sneezed, he wouldn't have attracted this long-tongued ghost. No, he had to get out of here quickly.
The skinny male player knew that the longer he delayed, the faster the other vengeful ghosts would arrive.
Thinking of this, the skinny male player gritted his teeth and was about to thrust his weapon forward.
But just then, a series of light yet steady footsteps approached. Not only was the skinny male player startled, but even the long-tongued ghost outside stopped moving.
Who's here? Is it another ghost? Why are they not moving?
The skinny male player was completely bewildered. After a moment, he licked his dry lips and secretly peered out through the hole in the door.
Through the hole, he was astonished to find that the long-tongued ghost was trembling.
Its long tongue was now waving wildly and uncontrollably not far away.
The skinny male player's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately felt the terror emanating from the long-tongued ghost.
It was like a cold wind that pierced through both of their spines at the same time.
Immediately afterwards, a tall, slender figure appeared in the sight of the thin male player, and the long sword, as bright as autumn water, reflected a sharp light in the darkness.
The skinny male player's face immediately turned ashen, and the rumors he had overheard earlier flashed through his mind.
His eyes widened, only one thought echoing in his mind: 'It's over, it's really over this time.'
Xiao Jin's steps were neither hurried nor slow, but each step seemed to tread on the heartstrings of the Long-Tongued Demon, making it tremble even more violently.
The long-tongued demon's eyes, which had once gleamed with cruel light, were now empty and filled with despair.
Its legs were trembling, and its body was almost collapsing to the ground.
Xiao Jin's figure gradually became clearer outside the hole. Her eyes were as cold as frost, and an invisible killing intent instantly spread out, locking onto the long-tongued ghost.
Faced with this murderous intent, the long-tongued demon didn't even have the courage to struggle.
Run? It must be tired of living to dare to try to escape from a demon.
But a moment later, a hint of doubt flashed in the long-tongued demon's eyes. It looked in Xiao Jin's direction, wondering why she hadn't devoured it yet.
Seeing this, it tentatively asked, "Lord Asura, may I ask... is there a problem?"
Upon hearing the term "Shura," Xiao Jin's eyes flickered slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.
'Shura? What on earth is this long-tongued demon imagining?'
She pondered silently in her heart, but her face remained calm and composed, revealing not a trace of emotion.
Seeing that she remained unmoved, the long-tongued ghost felt even more uneasy.
At this moment, Xiao Jin's aura was as steady as a mountain, but in reality, it was just a bluff.
She knew that if she made a move while the prop was in effect, her disguise would vanish instantly, and her true identity would be exposed.
Therefore, now we'll see how good her acting skills are!
"What about the other rats?" Xiao Jin's voice was deep and powerful, and the question, tinged with a hint of tyranny, made the long-tongued ghost tremble.
He suddenly looked up, seemingly not afraid, but with a hint of relief at surviving a disaster in his eyes.
It guessed correctly; Lord Shura did not intend to kill it.
He bowed, his voice trembling slightly: "Reporting to Your Excellency, those rats are good at hiding, and we won't be able to find them for a while."
However, many rats have already been eliminated, and the remaining ones are hardly any evidence.
Even at this moment, it didn't forget to flatter: "But who knows, maybe they were so scared after learning of your name that they ran away without daring to come out."
"Heh~" Xiao Jin chuckled coldly, then turned the conversation to the main topic.
"What about the treasure location? Are these rats planning to abandon it?"
Treasure location?
The skinny male player who was hiding nearby had already given up hope, but he suddenly heard the two ghosts talking about the treasure location and immediately perked up.
He quietly pricked up his ears.
Like Xiao Jin, the skinny male player was initially unwilling to hide and searched the park for a long time.
The result was easy to guess: he found nothing.
I thought I had given up all hope, but I never expected to get a clue about the treasure location from the ghost.
The long-tongued ghost didn't seem to suspect anything. It chuckled and said, "They've probably given up. After all, the treasure location is so well hidden."
Those carrying treasure chests are all powerful and vengeful ghosts; even if those rats come looking for them, they're just offering themselves up as food.
Xiao Jin's eyes lit up.
It turns out that the so-called treasure location was the vengeful ghost itself, and those treasure chests were all carried on the body of the powerful vengeful ghost. No wonder she couldn't find them no matter what!
The skinny male player next to him also stared in astonishment, mouth agape.
That's ridiculous... Who could possibly find this?!
"Hmm." Xiao Jin composed himself: "So, as long as you're near the treasure chest, there's a high chance of encountering humans?"
"Yes, sir."
Immediately, Xiao Jin feigned impatience and casually asked, "Where are those ghosts?"
The long-tongued ghost was stunned for a moment. Hadn't the master received a message from the Paradise Master beforehand? Could it be that he came directly here?
However, it certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to ask that question aloud.
