◎Solution + Plaster Figure◎
This time Jiang Chuxu didn't hide, but Xiao Hei moved.
Xiao Hei moved his body, arched his back, kicked his legs, and then shot out directly, stretching out his claws towards the hair.
There seemed to be a flash of cold light.
Swish——
The sound was so sharp and piercing, like tearing thick cloth. A large piece of sticky, wet and cold black hair broke and fell limply to the ground.
The smell of decay in the air instantly faded a lot.
[Oh my god, Xiao Hei is awesome]
[That claw is so handsome]
[Black hair and Xiao Hei, I almost couldn’t see where Xiao Hei was]
[Wait a minute, look at the back]
Just as the last sentence of the commentary was about to end, more and thicker black hairs silently emerged from the shadow of the empty wall behind Jiang Chuxu. These hairs shot towards the back of Jiang Chuxu at a faster speed than before.
The hair that Xiao Hei had just pulled off also disappeared onto the ground.
As soon as Xiao Hei landed, before he could shake off the mucus on his claws, his pupils suddenly constricted, he began to breathe rapidly in his throat, and his body tensed up again.
Jiang Chuxu seemed to have eyes on his back.
She didn't even turn her head, just turned her shoulders very slightly to the side.
The black hair brushed against the edge of her clothes and stabbed into the ground where she had just stood, making a dull popping sound and leaving several holes.
Jiang Chuxu finally turned around and glanced at the wall of hair dancing wildly.
Xiao Hei seized this momentary opportunity and kicked his hind legs hard. Instead of rushing towards the hair wall, he went straight towards the barber ghost.
A trace of surprise seemed to flash across the barber ghost's blurry face. He didn't expect that Xiao Hei would notice him at this time. He had planned to take this opportunity to run away.
The shaver ghost subconsciously raised his arms. There were many black hairs wrapped around his arms, which blocked Xiao Hei's attack for him.
But the barber ghost was still hurt, just not as seriously. It let out a sharp scream and no longer tried to attack Jiang Chuxu. Its hunched figure suddenly shrank back, knocking away the pile of broken furniture behind it and melting directly into the wall.
The earthen wall covered with dark brown stains rippled like the surface of water, and the barber ghost disappeared without a trace along with the two razors emitting a cold and bloody light on its arms.
"He ran away." Jiang Chuxu glanced at the wall that had returned to calm, and there was no surprise in his tone.
[Just ran away like that? ]
[If you can't win, just run away. That's pretty smart.]
[What the hell! He's definitely up to something bad.]
【Do you want to follow the anchor? 】
This is not the Barber Ghost's home ground, it certainly won't stay here. If she guessed correctly, the Barber Ghost should have gone to the ancestral hall.
She bent down and picked up Xiao Hei, who was shaking the black and gray hair on his paws in disgust, and put it into her arms.
The black hair grabbed from the barber ghost did not disappear. The other black hair should just be the barber ghost's means of attack.
Jiang Chuxu still remembered that there should be a ghost here, but that ghost never appeared when she was fighting with the razor ghost, and she didn't know where that ghost came from.
Generally speaking, ghosts will devour each other, especially the Barber Ghost, who seems to have lost his mind now. Unless the ghost that has not appeared is equally powerful as the Barber Ghost, the two will only suffer losses if they devour each other.
That's not right. The other ghost shouldn't have much Yin energy. Judging by the amount of Yin energy, the ghost that didn't appear should not be very strong and has not been around long.
Many speculations emerged in Jiang Chuxu's mind, and finally they all pointed to one thing: the other ghost might have been released by the K organization. The people of K have studied so many things, so naturally there is a way to prevent ghosts from devouring each other.
Her eyes fell on the unopened door, and she placed her hand on it again, new fragments of memory flooding into her mind.
In the previous memories, the third perspective and the first perspective were switched back and forth, but this time it was different. The whole process was in the first perspective, so the information that could be obtained was limited. Only what the ghost had seen would appear in front of him.
dark.
The first thing that comes to mind is the suffocating darkness. It’s not the kind of darkness with a faint glow at night, but a nothingness that deprives all senses.
My body was squeezed, and the surroundings felt hard and rough, with a damp earthy smell and a pungent odor of undried cement, making it difficult to breathe.
Can't move.
The limbs seemed to be cast in cold cement blocks, only the fingertips could twitch slightly, scratching the equally hard and cold "wall".
Suddenly, a vague fragment of cognition flashed through my mind: at the construction site, at night, working overtime, checking the newly poured foundation, my foot slipped.
The feeling of suffocation became stronger and stronger, as if the lungs were being tightly grasped by an invisible hand. Every breath brought deeper despair, and consciousness began to blur.
His last thought was that his wages had not been paid yet and his mother was still in the hospital and could not die. He wanted to call for help, but he could not even make a sound.
In the absolute darkness and suffocation, time lost its meaning. I don’t know how long it took. When I opened my eyes again, I saw fully armed people in front of me, and some of them were dressed very strangely. But they might be the leaders, because everyone else listened to their instructions.
The next feeling became even more blurred, and I could even say that I couldn't see anything clearly. Finally, I was sent here and saw the scene of the barber ghost.
The memory fragments stopped abruptly.
Jiang Chuxu pulled his hand back abruptly, his fingertips cold.
The door suddenly opened by itself, and the creaking sound was particularly obvious.
[The host looks very unhappy]
[The door opened by itself!!!]
[This is totally normal. In this live studio, opening the door by itself is just a little bit of a sprinkle.]
[Now I won’t be afraid even if a ghost comes out of there]
The next second, a pale face appeared in the crack of the open door. It was hard to describe the face. It was flattened, and its nose, eyes and ears were filled with cement, which exactly matched what Jiang Chuxu had just seen.
"Ugh..." An incoherent sound came out of the throat blocked by cement, and its whole body squeezed out from behind the door. Its movements were stiff and slow, and its body was also covered with a layer of half-dried cement shell. Small pieces of cement kept falling to the ground as it moved.
It stretched out its hand with twisted knuckles and grabbed towards Jiang Chuxu. Its movements were clumsy and filled with malice driven by instinct.
Xiao Hei's fur stood up as he stared at the actions of the cement monster.
Jiang Chuxu just watched the monster slowly approaching. She could clearly sense the faint remnant of its struggle under the cement shell, but it was controlled and could not struggle at all.
"Wages, your mother is still in the hospital."
Jiang Chuxu was just testing it, and the slowly moving cement ghost really froze.
"Mom... money." The discordant words were squeezed out with difficulty. Its cement-wrapped body began to tremble violently, and the covering cement shell fell off, revealing the bluish-gray skin underneath.
At the moment when its residual regret erupted and briefly overwhelmed the control of the K organization, Jiang Chuxu raised his right hand.
This ghost had never harmed anyone, so Jiang Chuxu gave it some merit so that it could be reincarnated.
The struggling body seemed to be blown away by the wind, starting from the outermost cement shell, which quickly disintegrated and dissipated. The cement blocks turned into fine ash and floated down, and the bluish-gray skin and twisted limbs turned into tiny spots of light.
The whole process was silent, only the strong stench gradually faded away.
Only a small amount of gray cement powder was left on the ground.
Jiang Chuxu put down her hand and looked at the ash silently. She bent down and picked up the quiet Xiao Hei, and her fingertips unconsciously stroked Xiao Hei's smooth fur.
"The source is in the ancestral hall." She held Xiao Hei in her arms and turned to walk out of the house.
There's still a lot of negative energy in this room, but we can deal with it later.
"It's time to find the real boss."
She did not stop walking. Deep in Huaishu Village, the evil aura belonging to the barber ghost Liu San came faintly from the direction of the ancestral hall.
But this time, Jiang Chuxu could clearly feel that there seemed to be a hint of unspeakable fear in the numb eyes of those hiding behind the window and peeping in.
Those were just little ghosts, very weak ones at that, so Jiang Chuxu didn't plan to do anything.
The camera of the mobile phone shook with her steps, and the tall outline of the ancestral hall became clearer and clearer. It was made of blue bricks and black tiles, and two heavy black lacquered wooden doors were tightly closed. A large rusty copper lock hung on the door knocker.
Jiang Chuxu stopped at the bottom of the stairs and shone the flashlight on the lock.
The door is not locked, it's just padlocked.
Jiang Chuxu directly took off the lock and put it aside, pushed open the door, and there was a dark red yin energy inside. Facing the door were layers of tablets. The long altar in front of the tablets had already overturned, and the incense burner rolled to the ground.
The entire ancestral hall was very quiet, so any sound was particularly obvious, as if countless tiny things were crawling in the darkness, coming from all directions, and were a hundred times clearer than in the tile-roofed house.
Jiang Chuxu identified the source of the sound and looked up at the highest point of the pile of tablets.
Countless strands of hair gushed out frantically from the gaps between the tablets, from under the altar, and from the beams. In the blink of an eye, they intertwined into a huge black hair net in front of Jiang Chuxu.
In the center of the hairnet, a hunched figure slowly took shape. It was the barber ghost Liu San, but at this moment its state was even more hideous and terrifying than in the tile-roofed house.
I have intensive phobia.
Is that blood on the ground?
[This sound makes my head explode]
[The cement ghost just looked scary, but it was actually pretty good in comparison.]
The barber ghost didn't waste any words. It let out an inhuman roar, and its huge body made of hair suddenly leaned forward. The huge black hair net covered Jiang Chuxu's head and face.
Every strand of hair on the net was stretched straight, like a sharp weapon. At the same time, the ground came alive, and dense hair surged out from the ground with such force that it almost lifted people up.
Attacked from both sides, there is no escape!
Xiao Hei took the first step. He pounced on the opponent's mouth and roared. The sound was totally unlike that of a cat.
The huge hair net that covered the area was the first to be hit, as if it was hit hard by an invisible hammer. Large clumps of black hair seemed to be burned by fire, and the hair spikes on the ground were broken off at the roots in an instant and turned into ashes.
The condensed figure of the barber ghost shook violently and let out a painful scream. Its black hair peeled off in large flakes, revealing its even more shriveled and withered body underneath.
The barber ghost was obviously completely enraged.
The remaining black hair surged wildly, trying to condense again.
Its cloudy eyes stared at Xiao Hei, but it did not make any rash moves.
"Have you had enough of the noise?" Jiang Chuxu's voice broke the eerie silence.
She took two steps forward, passed Xiao Hei who was squatting on the ground licking his paws gracefully, and her eyes fell calmly on the stiffly standing barber ghost.
"Chat?"
The barber ghost shuddered violently, as if stimulated by the word. A strange hoarse sound came from its throat, and its remaining black hair danced wildly, pointing at the densely packed tablets on the altar, then at the stains on the ground, and finally at Jiang Chuxu.
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. The people who hurt you back then, their bones have rotted away, their souls have long since dispersed. You are trapped here, and those you harmed are all innocent. No matter what, you can't vent your hatred."
Of course it knew that the barber ghost was filled with evil energy, so it had not gone out in all these years. If it weren't for those strange people, it would not appear here now.
Regret?
Maybe, but it's more of manipulated rage.
"Dust to dust, ashes to ashes." Jiang Chuxu looked at the barber ghost, with a barely perceptible sigh in his voice. The sigh disappeared in an instant, leaving only pure determination.
"Your revenge has long been taken. Your resentment only traps you. It's time to let it go."
She clenched the five fingers of her right hand and suddenly pulled them inward.
The barber ghost didn't even have time to speak before the dark red evil spirit and the barber ghost's distorted outline slowly disappeared, and some of the tablets in the ancestral hall were broken into pieces.
Jiang Chuxu put down his hand and the temperature of the necklace returned to normal.
The gloomy energy that enveloped the entire Huaishu Village did not completely dissipate, but it became much thinner.
"It's solved." She said simply to the camera, bent down and picked up Xiao Hei who was squatting quietly at her feet, turned around and walked out, turning off the sound of the live broadcast.
As soon as they walked out of the ancestral hall gate, several figures in black combat uniforms flashed out silently from the shadows beside them, and the leader was Wang Lei.
He nodded to Jiang Chuxu and whispered, "Comrade Jiang, thank you for your hard work. The brothers outside have already started to clean up the scene. Everyone in the village is unconscious and is being revived. The preliminary examination shows that there is nothing serious. It seems that they were exposed to a strong hallucinogen."
Just now, Jiang Chuxu sent a message to Ding Yucheng after he asked the system to block the K organization. Now the Internet police have also found several abnormal IPs that claim that they cannot watch the live broadcast.
Of course, in order to avoid suspicion, colleagues from the special department also created several new accounts to troll, saying that they could not see the live broadcast.
During the time when Jiang Chuxu was live streaming, the police went online and reportedly apprehended several small fry.
Jiang Chuxu hummed, then said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Wang Lei said: "Leave the follow-up to us, we will take care of it."
Jiang Chuxu nodded. Holding Xiao Hei in her arms, she, under the silent escort of special department personnel, passed through the village which was gradually showing signs of waking up, and got back into the car they came in.
The car started and drove away from Huaishu Village, leaving behind the land soaked in evil spirits.
The follow-up report of Huaishu Village was handled by a special department, and the online discussion did not cause much stir. She was not idle in the car either.
She slid her finger across the densely packed list of connection requests, her eyes quickly scanning the requests for help.
Finally her finger fell on an account called "Longjing".
The connection was successful, and the live broadcast was aimed at a mirror, and in the mirror was a person...
There are also a bunch of plaster figures.
"Host, I think these plaster figures are scary. They don't look like simple plaster. I don't know how to put it, they're just weird."
The person connected was a little incoherent, and from the mirror it could be seen that she seemed a little broken.
"I can't get out at all now. I tried, the door wasn't locked, but I couldn't get it open."
Apart from anything else, she now even doubts whether the person in the mirror is real.
Maybe she was like the other things in the mirror?
Maybe she is also a plaster figure.
【Author’s words】
When I returned home from a business trip, I heard the voices of my mother and another person coming from the bedroom.
It's strange, that person's voice is exactly the same as mine.
She said she had just returned from a business trip.
My mother also calls me by my nickname.
Is that me in the bedroom?
