The street lights flickered, and because of the pitch-black surroundings and the flickering lights of passing cars, Xu Qian did not notice the tiny black shadow flashing under the street light. When he saw the figure waiting under the bus stop sign while walking, he just thought it was a person. Until he got closer and the so-called person turned his head, Xu Qian felt as if his mind was suddenly pulled up.
Because that "person" has no face.
Its entire body was black, including its head, which was pitch black. One could even faintly smell the smell of burning. The head turned 180 degrees, and when it spotted Xu Qian, a thing called a mouth appeared in the dark area. "Found it..."
A hoarse voice sounded.
Xu Qian held his breath. He had never seen anything like this before when he met little ghosts. Even though he didn't understand Feng Shui, he knew that this kind of thing that could be seen by people was definitely not comparable to those little ghosts before.
"Ye..." Xu Qian tried to speak, but found that his throat seemed to be blocked by something. He opened his mouth but couldn't make any sound. He wanted to step back, but found that his body seemed to be fixed by something and he couldn't take a single step back.
The figure who turned around walked over slowly, and the beads on his wrist emitted a dazzling light. Xu Qian suddenly found that he could move. He turned around and ran, wanting to stop a car on the road, but found that the road that was full of traffic just now was empty of cars and people. There was only the sound of his breathing and footsteps.
When people encounter danger, they can only keep running forward. After running for an unknown amount of time, Xu Qian finally relaxed a little when he saw a person. However, when he looked up, he found that the figure turning towards him was exactly the same as the one he had seen at the station before.
The beads in her hand emitted a soft glow in the dark night, but when the dark shadow approached, the string of beads broke directly as if it could not bear the weight, and the beads rolled to the ground with a dripping sound, just like Xu Qian's heart, which was torn apart and turned cold.
What should I do? What should I do? Who will save him? Who will save him?! Ye Kaixuan!!!
A disgusting smell of blood came from the open mouth. Xu Qian's tears fell uncontrollably. Death was at hand, and her heart was beating so fast that it seemed to stop.
However, the next moment, a hand came from behind the dark figure's neck. Xu Qian didn't know how to describe that hand. It was slender and powerful. He even noticed that the nails on that hand were filed cleanly and rounded. But all of that couldn't compare to the touching feeling of that hand twisting the dark figure's neck cleanly and neatly.
The sound of car horns could be heard, mixed with noisy voices and the smell of car exhaust. Xu Qian fell to the ground. In the past, he would occasionally feel that the air quality in this city was too poor, the cars were too noisy, and the crowded city was too burdened. But this time, he felt grateful to be able to hear this sound, and he even enjoyed it a little.
Xu Qian raised his head and looked at the young man standing opposite him. He was tall, slender, well-proportioned, and had a handsome face. As the car lights flashed by, Xu Qian recognized him: "It's you?!"
The person who picked up the dog that day.
"Are you... the one who suspected that I picked up the wrong dog that day?" Lin Su looked down at him and said.
He wanted to give the jade pendant to the protagonist, but this kind of thing must find a suitable opportunity, otherwise the exchange will be difficult to conceal. He was thinking of taking this opportunity to thank Ye Kaixuan, but he didn't expect to find the resentment here on the way home from school. There was a sneaky thing that wanted to harm people. Lin Su saw it, and naturally he couldn't sit idly by.
Xu Qian got up from the ground, his face still a little frightened, but with the man who had just saved him by his side, he felt an unprecedented sense of security: "I'm sorry, it was really a misunderstanding last time. How is your puppy?"
"Very good." Lin Su said.
"Do you also know Feng Shui?" Xu Qian certainly didn't want to ask about a dog. That was someone else's pet. Even if he liked it much, he couldn't always think about it.
"Yeah, I understand a little." Lin Su stepped back to let the people passing by on the sidewalk pass.
This man looked cold, but he was actually warm-hearted. This was obviously not the place to talk. Xu Qian calmed down a little, looked at him and said, "Would you like to go have a drink over there? I'll treat you."
He obviously had something to ask. Lin Su checked the time and called Fox at home. When the call was connected, the other party was obviously a little flustered: "Ah, my canned food!!!"
"Hello." Lin Su said.
"Human, when will you come back? The fox is hungry..." There was a clanging sound from the little fox, and something fell to the ground again.
"I will be back a little late today and will bring you some cake." Lin Su said.
"Cake?! What kind of meat is that? Is it delicious?" The little fox was obviously tempted.
"It's delicious." Lin Su said with a smile, "I'll hang up first."
"Well, well, okay." The little fox's attention was attracted by something again. Lin Su hung up the phone and said to Xu Qian beside him: "Okay, you should have something to ask."
Xu Qian nodded, thinking about how gentle he was when he called just now. He must have a doting lover at home, so he was afraid that she would worry if he came home late, so he had to report it to her.
There was a shopping area right next to the bus stop, so Xu Qian found a shop and sat down with him. The cozy environment, soothing music, and the people coming and going all brought him some mental relaxation. They ordered some drinks, and Lin Su selected a multi-flavor cake to be made fresh. After the drinks arrived, they sat across from each other, and Xu Qian asked, "Do you know what that thing was?"
"Diba is a type of evil ghost. The souls of people who commit suicide cannot leave their original place of death unless the underworld comes to receive them." Lin Su said calmly, holding the cup. "But there are too many suicides, and they don't follow the records in the Book of Life and Death. The underworld may not be able to control them. After staying in the human world for too long, they are always trapped there alone. Some ghosts will become full of resentment and absorb the negative energy from humans. Once they have substantial power, they will harm people. Using the bodies of special people can make ghosts leave their original places."
This kind of thing sounded quite terrifying. Even sitting in this warm coffee shop, Xu Qian still unconsciously touched the hair on his arm. He was about to ask something else when his cell phone suddenly rang. He said to Lin Su, "Hello, Ye Kaixuan, what's going on?"
"Are you okay?" Ye Kaixuan's tone was obviously a little panicked. "The bracelet I gave you broke. Did something happen to you?"
"Well, I encountered something unclean, but someone saved me and I'm fine." Xu Qian felt a little touched when he heard his worried tone. He was really scared at that time, and the first person he thought of was Ye Kaixuan. If it weren't for that hand and foot that bought him time, he would probably not be able to wait for the person opposite to come and help.
