With his palm pressed against his forehead, Chen Ge maintained his posture, and it was a full minute before he dared to look behind him.

The shadow has returned to normal, and everything that happened just now is as if it had never happened.

Chen Ge did not take it lightly and tried calling Zhang Ya's name a few more times. After making sure that she had fallen asleep again, he finally calmed down.

He seemed to be exhausted and just lay on the ground.

The stars lit up the night sky, and Chen Ge didn't know what he was thinking.

After a while, a white cat ran over and put its furry paw on Chen Ge's forehead, as if to see if Chen Ge was cool enough.

"You ran pretty fast just now. What about the promise of sharing life and death together?"

His heart was still pounding. Chen Ge felt that he had overused his brain tonight and was now feeling a little short of oxygen.

There was a hint of contempt in the white cat's heterochromatic eyes, as if saying, if you have the ability, why don't you stand up and speak.

Rubbing the white cat's head, Chen Ge pretended not to notice the white cat's expression, lay on the ground, took out his black mobile phone, and clicked on the unread message on it.

"Lucky ghost patron! Congratulations on completing the nightmare difficulty daily task! You have obtained the primary talent skill Ghost Ear as a task reward."

“Ghost Ear: Before you inherit this gift, I hope you can think clearly. From this moment on, you will be able to hear the voices of another world.”

The message was very short. After reading it, Chen Ge touched his ear and felt that nothing had changed.

He closed his eyes, concentrated, and listened.

Someone was whispering deep in the tunnel and something was crawling among the bushes. Even though they were more than ten meters away, they could still be heard clearly.

"It seems like something is coming." Chen Ge noticed that the crawling sound in the bushes was slowly approaching. He opened his eyes and used his Yin pupil to look in the direction where the sound came from.

About eight or nine meters away, there was a human-like creature lying in the bushes. He was wearing a tattered coat and his head was tilted towards Chen Ge, as if he was preparing to launch a sneak attack on him.

"It's you!"

When Chen Ge came here in a taxi, he saw what seemed to be a person lying in the middle of the road. When the car passed by, the thing in the middle of the road quickly fled into the bushes next to it.

The monster lying far away didn't expect Chen Ge's ears to be so sensitive, and was still discovered when he approached from behind.

It retreated decisively, and its body escaped quickly as if it had no bones.

"What on earth is that?"

Chen Ge got up from the ground. He was not sure if the monster that had just escaped was the same one he had encountered before.

"Their existence should be related to this strange tunnel."

Dusting himself off, Chen Ge decided to leave first. "After Zhang Ya wakes up, I will bring all the employees and come back here to search thoroughly. Maybe I can meet more like-minded friends. Then, I will invite them to visit my haunted house."

Holding the white cat, Chen Ge walked outside along the road.

"You cat seems to have become heavier again. Be gentler next time you bite me. I'm bleeding. I don't know if I need a rabies vaccine..."

After walking along the road for thirty minutes, Chen Ge did not see a single car passing by. This place was really too desolate.

At about four o'clock, a truck from a moving company finally passed by Chen Ge. The truck was heading towards the city of Jiujiang. Chen Ge saw that it was on the same road and immediately shouted for help.

The driver was not a bad person. He slowed down the car but did not open the door. He looked at Chen Ge cautiously through the window.

"Brother, can I get a ride? I want to go downtown."

When the driver looked at Chen Ge, Chen Ge was also looking at him. The driver was about 40 years old, with a pale face and a weak body. His eyes were dark, probably because he often stayed up late.

"Why are you walking around the suburbs alone so late at night? And you're holding a cat?" The driver thought Chen Ge was very suspicious and there was something weird about him.

"I run a haunted house and I'm also an internet celebrity. I like to do live broadcasts of ghost hunting and look for inspiration for my own haunted house designs." Chen Ge's unique self-introduction startled the driver, who didn't react for a long time.

"Look, this is my short video personal homepage, and this is the report about my heroic act in Jiujiang News." Chen Ge handed the phone to the driver through the gap in the window. The other party looked at it for a long time before figuring out Chen Ge's occupation.

"This is a moving company's car. If you don't mind, you can stay in the cargo box at the back. I'll take you to the city." The driver returned the phone to Chen Ge.

"Thank you." Chen Ge didn't hesitate. He opened the door at the back of the truck and jumped in. "Brother, you can drive now."

"Remember to lock the car door from the inside, or else the things inside might fall out when you open it."

"rest assured."

After Chen Ge closed the door tightly, the car started. He stood in the cargo box, his body shaking with the truck.

He wanted to find something to sit down and rest. When he used his mobile phone to illuminate, he accidentally discovered a lot of ropes thrown in the carriage.

These ropes should be used by the moving company to secure furniture. There was nothing wrong with them, but Chen Ge saw that some of the ropes were stained with blood.

When my fingers touched it, the blood had already coagulated.

"Brother, where did you get this car from? Why are you still working so late at night?" From the voice alone, there was nothing wrong. Chen Ge seemed to be asking casually.

"Don't mention it. We met a very strange customer yesterday. He offered us double the price to move his things at night." The driver replied to Chen Ge without giving it much thought.

"Moving at night? Us?" Chen Ge was very sharp and noticed something strange in the driver's words: "Brother, are you the only one in this car? Where are your colleagues?"

"They are still helping over there. The customers are very generous and gave a tip of 300 yuan each." There was a hint of envy in the driver's words.

"Help? Has your moving company ever encountered a similar situation before?"

"It's just helping guests move furniture and stuff into the house. It's normal."

The driver didn't think it was a big deal, but thought Chen Ge was a little strange.

"Brother, I'm telling you all this because I think you're a good person." Chen Ge took a few photos of the ropes. "Did you find anything strange when you were moving the furniture? Or did you smell any strange odor?"

"We are just doing hard labor, why would we care so much?"

The car speed increased and the road conditions gradually deteriorated.

Without asking any more questions, Chen Ge sat next to the rope and thought that he might be too sensitive.

When he was about to close his eyes and rest for a while, his cell phone suddenly vibrated. He took it out and saw that it was Li Zheng calling.

"It must be a very important moment." Chen Ge answered the phone: "Captain Li, do you want to talk to me about something?"

"The forensic doctor found that the skin fragments of the missing person were extracted from the inside of the sculpture. Someone used the sculpture to transport the body a few years ago!"
