Before Chi Mu could react, he was pulled back by the person who was talking behind him.
After the two returned to the room where the water tank was placed, the man standing behind Chi Mu quickly closed the door.
"Blow out the candles!"
A pleasant female voice sounded, Chi Mu was stunned for a moment, and quickly blew out the candle.
The room returned to pitch black.
The woman panted and climbed to the window, looking outside the temple.
At this time, Chi Mu finally came to his senses, but he did not have any resistance to the woman. Instead, he felt at ease.
"Yang Qu..."
Chi Mu murmured.
He already knew her identity from the familiar voice and the unique scent on her body.
This is Yang Qu, who we haven't seen since "Deadly High School".
——“Oh wow, oh wow, my sister Qu is here!”
——"Sure enough, once Chi Mu is in danger, Yang Qu will appear by his side the first time. Woohoo, this is too sweet!"
——"I will carry the banner for Qu Mu CP!"
——"Hey, hey, hey, please control yourself. This is a rule talk, not the idol drama you guys are following!"
Yang Qu’s appearance made the live broadcast room instantly popular.
In the real world, it is now past one in the morning, but the number of people online in Longguo’s live broadcast room has reached a new high.
Qin Jianghe's heart trembled when he heard Chi Mu calling Yang Qu's name.
To the Longguo audience, Yang Qu is Chi Mu's savior.
But to the think tank researchers, the appearance of Yang Qu means that Chi Mu is likely to destroy the balance of the world of ghost stories again, and thus be imprisoned in the Ghost Story Prison Garden.
.......
"Shh, don't talk, these are the Yin soldiers borrowing the road!"
Yang Qu stopped Chi Mu from questioning her behavior.
After hearing what Yang Qu said, Chi Mu shut up obediently. He believed in Yang Qu very much.
In the world of ghost stories, Chi Mu doesn't trust anyone, but only gives all his trust to Yang Qu.
Because in each of these strange stories, Yang Qu always appeared to help him.
Chi Mu also walked to the window and looked out.
I saw the skeleton army rushing in from the gate of the humpback temple, surrounded by gray mist, and the trumpeter was rushing in the front.
Chi Mu was afraid that these skeleton troops would rush in.
But to Chi Mu's surprise, this skeleton army did not stop at the Hunchback Temple.
They ran straight through the wall and headed deep into the mountains.
About ten minutes later, the skeleton army disappeared and the fog gradually dissipated.
After everything quieted down, Yang Qu breathed a sigh of relief, took the candle from Chi Mu's hand and relit it.
After the candles were lit, Chi Mu could see Yang Qu's stunningly beautiful face again.
Yang Qu stood in front of Chi Mu with his hands behind his back, tilted his head slightly and smiled at him with his eyebrows and eyes curved.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Chi Mu was stunned. For some reason, his heart suddenly started beating faster and his face turned red.
"Hello...long time no see."
——"Fuck, this should be a very weird atmosphere, why do I feel it is so sweet now?"
——"I can't take it anymore. Qu Mei is so pretty. Chi Muyu has a stupid head."
——"I never thought that one day, I would actually be in the world of ghost stories and couples."
.......
Chi Mu looked at Yang Qu, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Yang Qu had no intention of speaking, but just raised the corner of his mouth slightly and stared at Chi Mu.
"Ahem...what the hell are those skeletons out there?"
Chi Mu tilted his head and asked Yang Qu.
Did he remember what Yang Qu said just now about the ghost soldiers borrowing the road?
Yang Qu blinked, withdrew his gaze from Chi Mu, and began to explain.
"The ghost soldiers often appear after a great disaster that has killed many people. These ghost soldiers refer to the ghost officers and generals from the underworld who come to arrest souls.
After many disasters, many people will die. Often, many wronged souls gather in one place and are reluctant to leave. At this time, the underworld will send out its powerful weapon, the "Ghost Army", to arrest the souls. "
“Another theory is that many people died in one place in an instant, and these dead people didn’t know they were dead, and kept wandering around the places where they were before they died.
Every year when their death is approaching, they will reappear, hence the saying of "ghost soldiers borrowing the road".
After a pause, Yang Qu added meaningfully: "Once a living person encounters ghost soldiers asking for passage, he must not be touched by these ghost soldiers, otherwise he will be taken to the underworld together with them."
Chi Mu was shocked, and then he understood why Yang Qu had hurriedly pulled him back from the door.
If I had just stood there stupidly, I would have died by now.
"Thank you, Yang Qu. I don't know how many times you have saved me..."
Chi Mu sincerely expressed his gratitude to Yang Qu.
Then, he began to think about this so-called "ghost soldiers borrowing the road".
Just as Yang Qu said, this "ghost soldiers borrowing the road" usually appears after a disaster, so it means that there have been large-scale casualties in the Tuobei Village.
This is how such a huge army of ghost soldiers came into being.
To extend this idea, the A-level clearance mission requires ensuring that all villagers survive before the flood comes.
In this way, it can be inferred that a large-scale flood must have occurred in Tuobei Village many years ago, resulting in the deaths of many villagers.
This is why the ghost soldiers are now borrowing the road.
Moreover, according to Yang Qu's second statement, these ghost soldiers usually appear during the period of time when they die every year.
"Does this mean that when the last flood came, it was in the last few days?"
After Chi Mu thought of this possibility, he realized that the flood might come in a few days.
It is necessary to find all the murderers as soon as possible, or find a way to find out the exact date of the flood and ensure that all the villagers do not die in the flood.
"Yang Qu, why are you here? On the rainy day, were you standing outside the entrance of my store wearing a red skirt and holding a red umbrella?"
Chi Mu suddenly remembered the woman in red who appeared at the door of the convenience store the night before.
"Yes, it's me... Let's not talk about this now. You should complete the ghost story mission as soon as possible. Go check out those water tanks first."
Yang Qu pointed to the five water vats in the room.
Chi Mu was slightly startled, and suddenly remembered the experience when Yang Qu helped him and was teleported to the Ghost Story Prison Garden.
"I can do it myself. You...you'd better not help me. You may not know that after the last 'Death High School' ghost story, I was teleported to a place called the Ghost Story Prison Garden."
Yang Qu's expression changed and she stood there in a daze.
After a long while, she gave a wry smile, nodded to Chi Mu, and signaled him to open the five water tanks himself.
Yang Qu looked very remorseful.
"I'm sorry, I only found out about the Ghost Story Prison Garden later. I didn't want you to go to that kind of place..."
