"This is impossible..." The girl murmured in disbelief when she saw Ihara's determined look.
“…”
Yi Yuan looked back at Xiang Yan and Bai Jing, and gave Bai Jing a look. Bai Jing nodded slightly in understanding, and then a bright smile appeared on his face.
Lifting his leg and approaching the girl, Bai Jing said softly with a comforting smile: "Don't be afraid, we are also trapped here. Tell me everything you know. We are also looking for a way out."
Bai Jing's cute and pretty baby face plus bright smile are indeed more useful than Ihara's cold face.
As Bai Jing whispered, the girl's initial shock at finding out that Xiang Yan and the others came from Yanghuai No. 3 Middle School was slowly suppressed.
After organizing her words a little, the girl began to tell Xiang Yan and the others what she had encountered.
Because they heard there would be a meteor shower tonight, she and her three friends decided to go to the suburbs outside the city to see if they could see one.
As a result, when they arrived in the suburbs, it was still early and the sun was just about to set.
Because they were bored, they wandered around the suburbs and found an abandoned old house.
They were all brave people and had never encountered any danger before, so one or two of them wanted to go in and explore.
The result is self-evident, they encountered ghosts.
“…”
After hearing what the girl said, Xiang Yan and Bai Jingyi were both speechless.
This kind of self-destructive behavior is really not uncommon.
One or two of them like to go on adventures, and then they risk their lives.
"Don't worry, just follow us from now on." Although he felt a little helpless, Bai Jing still comforted the frightened girl to prevent her from doing anything out of shock.
“Yeah…” The girl saw Bai Jing’s handsome face, her face slightly flushed, she looked at him, then nodded obediently.
Xiang Yan looked at the shy girl and glanced at Bai Jing's face with a strange expression.
[So this cute style is so popular? ] Xiang Yan thought divergently.
Xiang Yan knew that he was very popular and that many girls liked his face. To be honest, he sometimes narcissistically thought that he was very handsome.
Because he is a face control, so when he was making the shell, he also made Bai Jing and Yi Yuan look good.
But at first he thought that those girls didn't like someone like Bai Jing who looked a little young.
I didn’t expect it…
Xiang Yan thought in amazement in his heart.
Bai Jing, who had finally calmed the girl down, looked at Xiang Yan's expression of watching the fun, and walked over feeling unhappy and reached out to pinch Xiang Yan's face.
[Is it lively and interesting?] Bai Jing glared at Xiang Yan.
[Hhh, it’s pretty good.] Xiang Yan replied in his heart with a smile in his eyes.
Just when Bai Jing was about to say something, Yi Yuan came over and rescued Xiang Yan from Bai Jing's hands.
Yi Yuan signaled with his eyes to Bai Jing who was joking and looked at Zhu Wenwen who suddenly walked to the other side.
That’s right, just when Xiang Yan and Bai Jing relaxed a little, Zhu Wenwen, who had been standing there, suddenly raised his leg and walked into the pit.
Although the huge pit was filled with bones, there was still a small path leading down at the edge.
Before Xiang Yan and the others noticed, Zhu Wenwen was almost at the side of the bones.
After being reminded by Yi Yuan, Xiang Yan and Bai Jing also noticed Zhu Wenwen's behavior. After a moment of surprise, they tried to stop her from going down.
But before they could move, the bones began to move with a crackling sound.
The white bones that had been motionless suddenly stood up one after another as if they were injected with souls, and then stood facing Zhu Wenwen.
Seeing this strange scene, Xiang Yan and the others were stunned for a moment and did not move forward.
While Xiang Yan and the others were stunned, Zhu Wenwen had already walked in front of the bones.
The bones scattered one by one after meeting Zhu Wenwen, and Zhu Wenwen walked to the center of the pile of bones without stopping.
Then……
Zhu Wenwen closed her eyes surrounded by white bones. She raised her hand slightly, and a huge skeleton made up of countless white bones formed in front of Xiang Yan and others.
“…”
“…”
Silence... The whole space was filled with an unspeakable silence...
"Stand back." Bai Jing was the first to react. He stretched out his hand and pushed Xiang Yan behind him, then held the Demon-Suppressing Sword in front of Xiang Yan to protect him.
After pulling the girl who was stunned by the sudden scene in front of her aside, Ihara stood beside Bai Jing and looked at the huge white skeleton in front of him vigilantly.
The white bones shook for a while before standing firm and facing Xiang Yan and the others.
…
On the other side, Qi Qi's mouth corners were slightly curled after seeing Xiang Yan, Bai Jingyiyuan and others taking Zhu Wenwen into the hexagonal well.
He was in a very good mood as he watched Xiang Yan and the others arrive at the huge pit according to their plan.
When he saw Bai Jing and Yi Yuan competing to protect Xiang Yan, his interest in Xiang Yan reached its peak.
Until he saw the girl who suddenly appeared.
"How did that girl get in?" Qi Qi frowned and asked his subordinates beside him.
This plan regarding the demon messenger Ihara was something he had been designing for a long time, and he couldn't accept anyone destroying it.
"This...I don't know." The subordinate who was asked lowered his head.
The corners of Qi Qi's mouth, which were originally slightly raised, suddenly pulled down, and he looked at the subordinates around him with unclear eyes.
“…”
Lin Gui, who had been standing quietly aside because of the previous incident, glanced at the subordinate casually, then looked away without interest and turned his attention to Xiang Yan and the others.
Lin Gui had been busy testing the ghost messenger before, so he hadn't paid much attention to what was happening between Xiang Yan and the others. It was not until Qi Qi took over the matter just now that he relaxed.
After letting go of the pressure of the matter, Lin Gui looked at Yan and the others with a relaxed mood, and suddenly discovered some interesting things.
Yi Yuan is a powerful ghost catcher from hell, and the young man named Bai Jing is also very powerful, but they both seem to like the young man named Xiang Yan, and they are both trying hard to get close to Xiang Yan.
Moreover, compared to the serious and cold Ihara, Xiang Yan seems to be closer to the sunny and cheerful Bai Jing.
Tsk tsk tsk, even a dignified ghost catcher would have his day of failure.
Lin Gui's mind was full of thoughts of watching the fun.
He will definitely follow this love triangle, hahaha.
"Lin Gui, Lin Gui."
"...Ah?" Lin Gui heard Qi Qi's shout and quickly came back to his senses, "What happened?"
After Qi Qi dealt with the subordinate, he saw Lin Gui staring at the mirror with a smile on his face. After taking a look at the scene in the mirror, he called out to Lin Gui twice.
After Lin Gui came back to his senses, Qi Qi said with a faint smile on his face: "Get ready, it's time for us to take action."
"Okay." When Lin Gui heard Qi Qi's words, he remembered the reason why he came to Yanghuai No. 3 Middle School. He put aside the unnecessary thoughts in his mind and began to prepare for the next things seriously.
He and Qi Qi were ordered to deal with the ghost this time, not to play around.
Just when Lin Gui and Qi Qi were about to take action, Xiang Yan and his team also ran into trouble.
Just after Zhu Wenwen made the white bones reorganize into a large white skeleton, the white skeleton waved its arms and attacked Yan Yiyuan and Bai Jing.
Bang—bang—bang—
Bai Jing and Xiang Yan carefully dodged the white bone arm that was hitting them, while Yi Yuan on the other side also took the girl to the side.
[system! ! ! ]
After discovering that his several attacks were useless against the white skeleton, Bai Jing couldn't help but call out to the system in his heart.
[Dear, I'm here.] The system responded, and then found some offensive weapons and talismans for Bai Jing.
[This white skeleton is not a ghost to be honest, so your Demon Sword has little impact on it. The same is true for Ihara's Ghost Binding Chain.]
The system explained as it exchanged a few talismans for Bai Jing to deal with the white skeleton.
[Yes.] Bai Jing responded, then rushed towards the white skeleton with the talisman in hand.
Bang——Crack——
After Bai Jing threw all the talismans used against the white skeleton on it, the white skeleton gradually broke apart with a crackling sound, turned back into its original skeleton, and lay back in the huge pit.
"Huh..." After seeing the white skeleton disperse, Bai Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
If it weren't for the talismans found by the system, it would be a bit troublesome for him and Ihara to deal with the white skeleton alone.
Although it's not impossible to defeat it, it still takes some effort. After all, the white skeleton is incompatible with their weapons, and it's not as easy as dealing with those ghosts.
"Are you okay?"
After seeing the white skeleton fall down, Xiang Yan hurriedly ran out and looked at Bai Jing with concern.
"It's okay." Bai Jing shook his head.
On the other side, Ihara also came over with the girl.
Yi Yuan walked to Xiang Yan, took a closer look, and heaved a sigh of relief when he found that Xiang Yan was not injured. "It's good that you are not injured."
"I'm fine. How about you? Are you okay?" Xiang Yan gestured that he was fine, then spoke to Yi Yuan to show his concern.
Although as individuals, they knew in their minds that the other person was fine, but as friends who had shared the hardship, they still had to ask about it on the surface.
"It's okay." Ihara also shook his head.
"I'm fine too." The girl who had been standing next to her also said softly.
After she finished speaking, she closed her mouth and stopped talking.
Because...she doesn't want to be a light bulb!
Although she was a little moved by Bai Jing's smile and gentle comfort at the beginning, after what happened just now, she no longer had any thoughts.
Please, looking at the way Bai Jing held Xiang Yan in his hands for fear of dropping him, and held him in his mouth for fear of melting him, who can't see his feelings for Xiang Yan?
Although I'm a little sad that the relationship ended before it even began, but... hehehe, I can still support their couple.
The girl, that is, Xu Xun, thought happily.
After looking at each other and realizing that no one was injured, Xiang Yan and the others turned their attention back to Zhu Wenwen, who was at the center of the bones.
Zhu Wenwen, who had her eyes closed, opened her eyes after the white skeleton disintegrated.
“???” Zhu Wenwen, who had regained consciousness, looked at the white bones around him in a daze, his heart filled with confusion and fear.
After all, opening your eyes and seeing bones all around you is a very special experience.
Carefully walking out of the pile of bones, Zhu Wenwen saw her classmate Xiang Yan as soon as she got out of the huge pit. Two boys stood on Xiang Yan's left and right, and next to him stood a girl covered in dust.
"Student Xiang Yan? Where is this place? Why am I here?" Zhu Wenwen came out and asked Xiang Yan in confusion.
After taking a wary look at Zhu Wenwen's bewildered face and realizing that she really didn't know what had happened, Xiang Yan heaved a sigh of relief and explained, "Here's what happened. I accidentally saw you enter the locust tree forest, and then I was also pulled in by a burst of white mist. When I saw you again, you..."
After telling Zhu Wenwen roughly what had happened during this period, Xiang Yan paused and deliberately left some time for Zhu Wenwen to digest the information.
Xu Xun, who was standing on the other side, looked at Zhu Wenwen, then at Xiang Yan and the others, and felt that what was happening seemed very complicated. She thought about it for a while, and when she found that she couldn't figure it out, she stopped thinking about it. Anyway, if she could get out safely, she would never be curious enough to touch those things again.
"Thank you for your help." After listening to Xiang Yan's words, Zhu Wenwen realized that she was able to wake up thanks to Xiang Yan, Bai Jing and others. She said gratefully.
"It's okay, we are classmates." Xiang Yan waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.
Gurgle——Gurgle——
Just as Xiang Yan and the others breathed a sigh of relief and were talking to each other, a strange gurgling sound came from a passage opposite the huge pit.
"Huh?" Xiang Yan looked up in confusion.
Bai Jing, Yi Yuan and the others also raised their heads.
Xu Xun, who had originally looked relaxed, suddenly turned pale.
"Yes...it's him! The ghost is coming." Xu Xun said fearfully.
"That male ghost in a white coat?" Xiang Yan remembered what Xu Xun said when they just met, and asked.
"Yeah, yeah." Xu Xun nodded vigorously.
"Ghost..." Xiang Yan said softly, then looked at Yiyuan.
"Leave it to me." As soon as Iyuan saw Yan's gaze, he knew what he wanted to do. After a simple response, he took the ghost-binding chain and walked towards the place where the voice came from.
Is there anyone more suitable than a ghost messenger to deal with ghosts? No, the ghost messenger is the most suitable!
"Eh?" Xu Xun looked at Yi Yuan in confusion, and wanted to reach out to stop him in surprise, "That ghost is very dangerous, he..."
"It's okay." Xiang Yan explained, "Yi Yuan is a ghost messenger."
"!" After hearing Xiang Yan's words, Xu Xun was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Zhu Wenwen, who was standing aside, was also stunned when she heard Xiang Yan's words.
She had also heard of the ghost messenger. From childhood to adulthood, her family members had also talked about hell and the ghost messenger. However, Zhu Wenwen always thought that the ghost messenger was far away from her and she might never meet one.
Who would have thought that the person next to him would be the legendary ghost messenger? ! !
Zhu Wenwen couldn't help but fall into deep thought that she had actually seen a ghost.
Just when Xu Xun and Zhu Wenwen were stunned in surprise, Yi Yuan had already walked to the opposite side of the huge pit, to the entrance of the passage where the strange sound came from.
There are many passages around the giant pit, and the inside of these passages is pitch black, so ordinary people can't see what's going on inside.
But with the exception of Ihara, the ghost catcher can see in the dark, so this pitch-black passage is actually no different from the outside world to him.
Walking to the passage where the sound came from, Ihara looked inside and found a middle-aged man in a white coat floating inside.
The man had a fierce and gloomy look on his face, and he stared at Ihara at the entrance of the passage with murderous eyes.
“Hehehe… Hehehe…” The middle-aged man made strange noises one after another.
After shouting for a while, the middle-aged man stretched out his long nails and rushed towards Ihara who was standing at the entrance of the passage.
Bang——
Ihara swung the ghost-binding chain and knocked the middle-aged man against the wall.
Ho ho ho——
After being knocked against the wall, the man continued to make strange noises from his mouth. He struggled to stand up again and twisted his neck. The middle-aged man in the white coat did not give up and rushed towards Ihara again.
Bang——
Click——
Boom——
Time and time again, the middle-aged man was beaten by Ihara until his body was twisted beyond recognition, but the middle-aged man in the white coat did not give up and continued to attack Ihara.
"..." Yi Yuan's originally serious look gradually became full of boredom after being attacked again and again by the middle-aged man.
Finally, Ihara lost his patience and used the ghost-binding chain to beat the middle-aged male ghost so hard that he couldn't even get up. Then he took out his camera and sealed the strange male ghost inside, turning it into a photograph.
After getting rid of the male ghost, Yi originally planned to turn around and leave and return to Xiang Yan, but he casually glanced into the passage and found that there seemed to be a lot of papers inside.
After walking in and picking up the papers to take a look, Ihara discovered that these papers actually recorded the origin of this place and what happened there.
No wonder the male ghost didn’t run away. It turns out he was guarding here tightly?
Yi Yuan thought about it for a while, then raised his hand to pack up all the information inside, and then brought it back to Xiang Yan.
So, Xiang Yan and the others waited for a while and saw Yi Yuan coming back with a pile of papers.
"What are these?" Xiang Yan took some papers, took a look and found that they were some experimental reports. He looked at Yi Yuan in confusion.
"There should be information about this place in there." Yi Yuan handed some to Xiang Yan and the others, "Let's all take a look. There should be information on how to get out."
"Um."
Xiang Yan Baijing, Zhu Wenwen and Xu Xun responded in unison, and then looked at the information in their hands.
After a while, everyone put down the documents in their hands.
After communication, Xiang Yan and his friends gradually pieced together the truth about this place.
There is a huge experimental field under the locust tree forest.
A long time ago, this place was used to conduct some cruel experiments that could not be exposed, and the middle-aged man in the white coat was one of the experimenters.
It should have been twenty years ago, when they were conducting an experiment, their test subjects got out of control, resulting in the destruction of the laboratory, and most of the people here did not survive.
Only a few people survived.
The few people who survived did not run away, they continued the experiment frantically. The huge pit in front of Xiang Yan and the others was caused by the experiment, and the bones inside were all the dead experimenters.
After most people died, the few remaining people conducted many experiments on their bodies, and the huge white skeleton was one of them.
Zhu Wenwen accidentally became contaminated by the resentment of the white skeleton and was then controlled by the resentment within the white skeleton, which is why she involuntarily came to the hexagonal well in the locust tree forest.
All previous behaviors were caused by resentment.
After the experiments of the remaining few researchers also failed, this place was abandoned.
The old house that Xu Xun and her friends saw in the suburbs should be an escape route for this experimental site.
The original experimenters are still alive!
However, perhaps because they were too anxious at the end, the information was not taken away but left behind.
It may also be that the people who left thought that the middle-aged man in the white coat could keep the information.
In short, after reading these materials, Xiang Yan and his team also found several passages leading to the outside world left by the original experimenters.
However, because the time was too long ago, no one knows what the current condition of those passages is.
Xiang Yan and the others could only look for them one by one.
"Then let's go." After a short rest, Zhu Wenwen, who had recovered a little, returned to her familiar sunny and cheerful appearance. She stood up and said full of energy.
"Um."
Xiang Yan, Bai Jing and others also stood up and responded.
They set off as soon as they said they would. After everyone stood up, Yi Yuan took the lead, with Zhu Wenwen and Xu Xun in the middle, and Xiang Yan and Bai Jing at the end. They walked towards the passage closest to them.
"It collapsed." Ihara was walking in front, so he saw the collapsed passage at a glance.
Shaking his head slightly, everyone continued walking to the next location.
…
"Are you ready?" Qi Qi asked the ghosts in front of him in a hidden passage.
"Okay." A group of dark ghosts responded loudly.
"Yeah." Qi Qi nodded, then looked at Lin Gui beside him.
Seeing Qi Qi's gaze, Lin Gui quickly responded, "I'm ready too."
"Well, let's go." After Qi Qi finished speaking, he raised his leg and led the ghosts out of the passage.
