Just as Xie Qi understood what had happened, a scream suddenly came from upstairs.
When Xie Qi heard the sound, he immediately ran upstairs.
At this moment, Bai Yize grabbed Bai Chuze's arm tightly, as if he saw something terrible.
He closed his eyes tightly, his face as pale as paper, and kept shouting: "What is that! I don't have the ability to see ghosts! Why can I still see ghosts?"
Old Master Bai held the talisman paper tightly in his hand, staring at the floor-to-ceiling window with a serious and vigilant expression.
Xie Qi followed Mr. Bai's gaze and discovered that there was a crack in the sky emitting a dim light. The crack was about as long as an arm.
And in that crack, three skeleton ghosts appeared.
They struggled and roared frantically, trying to squeeze out of the crack, but their lower bodies seemed to be stuck by something, so that only half of their bodies were exposed.
Xie Qi looked at this scene in astonishment, and said to Bai Chuze in disbelief: "Brother, didn't you say that the opening of the Ghost Gate entrance was forced to stop?"
Xie Shinian turned to look at Bai Chuze, who was beside him, looking bewildered and without any memory. He then explained to the crowd, "The Ghost Gate has indeed stopped, but it's only halfway open at the moment. These ghosts can't escape for the time being. However, once the Ghost Gate is fully opened, it will be a real problem."
When Mr. Bai heard this, he was stunned and asked suspiciously, "How could this ghost gate suddenly open?"
Xie Shinian didn't respond immediately, as he himself was deeply confused. Just how powerful was that mysterious being, to be able to disrupt the balance between the human and ghost worlds?
You know, before he accepted this task, he had no idea that the world would be so tricky.
Xie Shinian couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked, "What is the origin of that guy? Why is he staring at you?"
Xie Qi, standing next to Bai Chuze, also noticed Xie Shinian's nervous expression, so he said, "Brother, things are not as bad as you think. This is not the first time I have run into that guy. You have to use your brain in everything. Running away is not the right thing to do."
At this moment, Bai's father and mother also returned home. As soon as they came back, they shouted loudly: "Dad! What are those things outside!"
After hearing the sound, a few people walked out and learned from Bai's father and mother what happened outside.
It was at this time that Xie Qi realized that the cracks were not just in their room.
At this moment, cracks of all sizes spread out like a spider web, whether in the sky, on the earth, or anywhere else. And within each crack, there were evil spirits trying to break free and escape.
【Emergency Notice

At this moment, this incident has caused an uproar on the Internet, and panic has quickly spread throughout the entire network.
Various reports about this incident were everywhere, and people were filled with fear and worry about these sudden cracks and the ghosts within them.
Although these ghosts are temporarily confined in the cracks, their hideous and terrifying appearance still makes people shudder.
Moreover, the appearance of these cracks has no pattern, and no one can predict where they will appear. Some people have also had cracks in their homes, which has frightened those who have cracks in their homes and made them afraid to go home.
The country also feels very troubled when facing such a difficult disaster. After all, it is beyond the scope of what science can solve.
In this situation, the country looked for Taoist priests and heavenly masters who knew how to perform rituals, hoping that they could deal with the crisis.
However, even these experienced Taoist priests and heavenly masters seemed helpless when faced with this unprecedented situation of the Ghost Gate being opened.
At this time, many Taoist priests in robes had gathered at the Bai family because they felt that only Xie Qi and the man they suspected was the Ghost King could find a solution to the problem.
"Isn't he the King of Ghosts? Can't he close the Ghost Gate?" A young Taoist priest suddenly spoke, his voice revealing a hint of anxiety and confusion.
Xie Shinian: "I tried, but I couldn't close the gates of hell."
When everyone heard this, their hearts tightened. If they couldn't even lock up the Ghost King, how could they possibly do anything?
Xie Qi: "948, can you close the ghost door?"
948: "Host, this is not within the scope of the system. The Ghost Gate is a setting of this world. No matter how powerful I am, I cannot change the setting of the plane."
Hearing this, Xie Qi frowned slightly, thinking secretly about other feasible solutions.
Bai Chu sat beside him, his eyes fixed on him, as if he could sense his thoughts. He reached out and gently placed his hand on Xie Qi's leg, then tapped with his finger to get his attention.
Xie Qi was interrupted by this action and turned to look at Bai Chu: "What's wrong?"
Bai Chuze: "If the ghost gate of the ghost world cannot be closed, can the ghost gate of the human world be closed?"
When Xie Qi heard this, he suddenly understood. He took Bai Chuze's hand and said, "I think I know what to do."
There is only one gate to the ghost world, located in Fengdu Luo in the underworld. That gate is 44 meters high, and all ghosts can only enter the ghost world through this gate.
But there were more than one crack outside. If the Ghost Gate in the underworld was considered the terminal station, then the one in the human world was like a branch station.
After all, there is not only one place where humans die in the human world, which means that the gate to the ghost world can be anywhere in the human world.
It's also possible that the gate to the ghost world and the gate to the human world are not the same. If the gate to the ghost world can't be closed, then why not just close the ghost gate in the human world?
Thinking of this, Xie Qi took out a piece of talisman paper from his pocket. He pinched the talisman paper with his index finger and quickly formed a hand seal.
Instantly, the talisman paper began to burn on its own, as if ignited. Then, Xie Qi swung his arm, drawing an arc in the air.
Just as he was paddling, a crack exactly the same as the one outside appeared in front of them.
