Chapter 27 Lunar Eclipse (6)



"This is...Yu Qi, be careful!"

Xiangyang opened his mouth wide and looked at the ghost that suddenly appeared beside Yu Qirong in surprise, and his expression anxiously reminded Yu Qirong.

Yu Qirong pretended not to hear. He straightened up, stretched out his index finger and pointed it downwards at the well, then said a few words casually.

The Mirror Ghost leaped into the well, and Yu Qirong took a step back to avoid the splashing water.

Looking back, except for Su Tang, the other three people all had surprised expressions.

Yu Qirong didn't care about their thoughts and called out Xia Sheng casually.

"I almost thought you forgot about us."

Xia Sheng patted the trouser legs of his Lanxi High School uniform and smiled heartily.

Apart from her pale face and a strong negative energy around her, there was almost no sign that she was a ghost.

But she also appeared out of nowhere.

"How are the others?" Yu Qirong asked.

Xia Sheng waved his hand: "It's spacious inside, don't worry about them."

Yu Qirong nodded.

Watching Yu Qirong and Xia Sheng chatting, Lu Tao pursed her lips and guessed, "Does Yu Qi have any ability to control ghosts?"

She thought of Lin Siyue's accusation against Yu Qi, and had a flash of thought that Yu Qi might be Yu Qirong. However, Xiang Yang said that Yu Qi came in from the main god space with him, which almost negated the idea that Yu Qi was an NPC in this copy.

"You stay here to protect them... and keep an eye on the Mirror Ghost. Don't let anything happen to him."

Yu Qirong pointed at the ripples on the water surface without wind. It seemed that there were two forces in the well, constantly circling and fighting, and it was difficult to tell which was the upper wind.

Xia Sheng: "Leave it to me, don't worry."

She patted her chest confidently and glanced at the four people behind Yu Qirong, indicating that Yu Qirong would have no problem completing the task.

Yu Qirong nodded: "Then you stay here. When the time comes, I will let Xia Sheng contact you to go to the right place."

"This place we are going to can't be hell." Xiang Yang laughed dryly. When Xia Sheng glanced at him, he became scared again and shrank his head.

Xiangyang has traveled all over the country and has gone through several dungeons. He is not afraid of any Resident Evil-type dungeons, but the supernatural ones.

Afraid of ghosts.

"I understand." Lu Tao's quiet little face showed calmness.

Even though she knew that this person named "Xia Sheng" was a ghost, he didn't have any scary qualities. Moreover, she knew that this ghost was controlled by Yu Qi and wouldn't cause any harm to them, so she had nothing to be afraid of.

She confirmed with Yu Qirong again: "We just need to stay here to complete this book?"

Lu Tao had indeed not passed many dungeons, but every time he did, it was a matter of life and death, with him just one step away from death.

But this way of passing the level was too simple for her. It was so simple that she couldn't believe it and even thought she was dreaming.

Yu Qirong propped up his chin and nodded in Lu Tao's expectant eyes: "If nothing unexpected happens, at least it will be like this before the lunar eclipse ends."

After getting the guarantee, Lu Tao felt relieved.

Although the mission is to escape from Huangsha Village, the name of the copy is "Lunar Eclipse", which at least shows that the lunar eclipse is the most important time point. After the lunar eclipse, there should be no more thrilling situations.

There is a high probability that even after the lunar eclipse, the system will prompt that the task has been completed.

Seeing that no one else had any objections, Yu Qirong turned and walked towards the door. Su Tang followed closely. Yu Qirong did not turn his head, tacitly acquiescing that he had followed.

I wasn't surprised to see him calling out his former classmates since he knew him so well.

Yu Qirong let out a sigh of dissatisfaction, not knowing what was going on with Su Tang.

Su Tang came alone, and no one knew whether he came from the main god space... Maybe he was also an NPC of this copy.

If Su Tang didn't seem much more difficult to deal with than Yu Qirong, the identity of "high-risk NPC Yu Qirong" might have been pinned on Su Tang.

Huangsha Village is nothing but barren sand except for the houses. Once the lunar eclipse begins, the best place to hide is inside the house, but at the same time, the space inside the house is narrow, and if you are caught, your fate will most likely be miserable... I just don't know what Uncle Xu is doing with his men in the place with the thickest black fog.

The streets were empty and Huangsha Village looked like a dead village. Only the strong wind at night blew up the yellow sand, which was dazzling.

Yu Qirong raised her small flower umbrella forward to block the wind and sand.

The lining inside the small flower umbrella is black, as if it can blend in with the surrounding night sky.

It would be fine if Huangsha Village was really a dead village, but it turns out that there is at least one well in every yard.

Yu Qirong frowned and turned sideways. The strange things he just noticed returned to normal. He looked up at Su Tang: "It's not a good thing for me if you follow me."

His body is very sensitive to the black fog. Although it will be painful, it will remind him of his location to some extent.

It won’t be like it is now, where we are being followed by some malicious things and can’t find our location.

Su Tang had been standing one step behind Yu Qirong, following very closely, but his mouth was sealed with glue, and he didn't say a word, like Yu Qirong's ghost.

Yu Qirong had no intention of getting him to speak. He put one hand in his coat pocket, shrank his neck, and planned to turn around and continue walking forward.

Su Tang suddenly reached out and held Yu Qirong's hand that was holding the umbrella handle with his big hand. He pressed Yu Qirong's shoulder with his other hand and changed his direction.

Bang--

Yu Qirong's eyebrows jumped, and a bulge like a palm appeared inside the umbrella, and the metal ribs popped open.

The hand holding the umbrella handle was attacked from both inside and outside. The outside was covered by Su Tang's hand, and the inside was along the umbrella handle. The strong recoil force made his fingers numb.

Su Tang held his hand and pushed forward hard, pushing away a mass of unknown objects.

"...Why don't you let go?" Yu Qirong glanced at Su Tang, and Su Tang let go.

His fingers seemed reluctant to let go and gently stroked Yu Qirong's little finger.

Yu Qirong's hands were empty, and he took the time to glance at Su Tang. His face was as cold as ever, and it was impossible to tell what kind of person he was.

It was as if the extremely quick counterattack just now and the action of pinching his fingers intentionally or unintentionally were not done by him.

No explanation, no panic.

[Use the ghost doll's small flower umbrella, the number of uses remaining is 0, and it currently has no effect in resisting attacks. 】

The system's prompt reminded Yu Qirong to take a look at his umbrella.

Judging from the outside of the umbrella, the red color of the deeply sunken areas only appeared darker, but the strong smell of blood made Yu Qirong frown.

He looked in the direction opened by the umbrella and saw a wet ghost lying on the ground, with blood all over the yellow sand.

Yu Qirong tightened his lips, looking unprepared, his scarlet eyes showing some resentment.

Damn it, this is his favorite prop, and it was scrapped like this.

Even if they are of the same kind to some extent, it is unforgivable.

The ghost suddenly raised his head, his wet hair stuck to his face in clumps, his eye sockets were devoid of white, only pure black, as if the black mist had filled the ghost's body. His sharp teeth were exposed, oozing out some saliva mixed with blood and of unknown composition.

The mindless puppet controlled by the black fog is just like his classmates who turn evil at the slightest disagreement.

If we don't bring them out, this might be the final result.

"..." Yu Qirong's original intention to go over and settle the score with him faded a little. Not only did he not move forward, he subconsciously took a step back.

Su Tang thought Yu Qirong was scared, and just as he was about to step forward to protect him, he heard Yu Qirong muttering in a low voice: "You don't pay attention to hygiene. I thought people who have been in the well for a long time would know to be clean, but I didn't expect you to be so sloppy."

As he spoke, he seemed a little dissatisfied, and stroked the jewelry on his wrist that was covered by his coat, and threatened fiercely: "Don't be arrogant, I also have someone here who looks unapproachable."

As soon as he finished speaking, a bloodstain appeared on the ground, forming a line of words: "I seem to hear you say you don't want to get close to me QAQ"

Su Tang frowned imperceptibly.

"No, you must have heard it wrong." Yu Qirong was calm and pointed at the water ghost opposite him, "I'm talking to him, go and teach him a lesson."

The water ghost was completely irrational, like a wild beast that acted solely on its instincts. Just as the woman from the Xu family had said, it was brutal and could eat people.

Yu Qirong didn't intend to let the bloodstain fight the water ghost. Compared with the mirror ghost and Xia Sheng, his classmates who didn't have the conditions to kill were not as strong as them, so they would suffer. Therefore, he simply let it out to breathe, and Yu Qirong took it back and faced it himself.

Even without the defensive function, the umbrella tip is still somewhat useful.

Yu Qirong put away the umbrella, held the umbrella handle with his white jade-like fingers, ruthlessly blocking the water ghost's attack, and hit the water ghost's joints with his backhand.

The water ghost is indeed very strong with the power of the Moon Goddess, but he is still inferior to Yu Qirong.

Yu Qirong originally just wanted to make him feel the pain and then stop attacking, but he didn't expect that the water ghost had been completely occupied by the black fog and continued to pounce on Yu Qirong as if he didn't feel any pain.

Yu Qirong had no choice but to recall the little knowledge about the human body that he had learned in biology class, and forcibly broke some of the weakest human bones to make the water ghost lose its ability to attack.

The controlled water ghost kept struggling, and black filaments seemed to be moving under its defeated skin, flowing along its blood vessels, like some worms crawling under its skin.

Yu Qirong narrowed his eyes and found that he was indeed controlled by the black fog.

"Don't kill?" Su Tang asked.

The water ghost with broken limbs on the ground still persevered in crawling towards Yu Qirong.

He moved by relying only on the friction between his body and the yellow sand, but his speed was not enough to threaten Yu Qirong.

After hearing this question, Yu Qirong's face showed a bit of annoyance and disbelief.

He was just an NPC controlled by the black fog. When someone broke his umbrella ribs, he paid them back four times the amount.

They are all NPCs, who is nobler than who?

Seeing the death of an NPC always makes Yu Qirong feel a little uncomfortable, as if he is mourning the death of another.

He glanced at Su Tang who was following behind him inconspicuously, but what he was thinking in his heart was that if Tang Xingfei was here and knew that he was a mission and a high-risk NPC, would he also attack him?

Thinking of this, Yu Qirong, who had just hit the water ghost's hand bones hard, frowned, replied coldly "I won't kill" and turned away.

Su Tang paused, a hint of confusion in his dark eyes, but after Yu Qirong took two steps forward, he put aside his doubts and followed closely in Yu Qirong's footsteps.

Without the small flower umbrella to block the wind and sand, Yu Qirong could only use the sleeves of his coat to block it himself.

Su Tang took a step forward, but Yu Qirong dodged him without leaving a trace.

"...I'm sorry." Su Tang suddenly apologized sincerely.

Yu Qirong looked up at him, and Su Tang was staring at him motionlessly.

Yu Qirong knew that he had been a little confused just now, so he did not expect that Su Tang would be so sensitive to his unhappiness and even apologize.

Yu Qirong grabbed his sleeves, feeling a little uncomfortable: "No need."

Just as I was about to say something, the strong smell of blood blew towards my nose along with the night wind.

Only then did Yu Qirong realize that the surrounding environment was getting darker and darker.

He frowned and looked up at the moon in the sky.

The moon has been reduced to a shallow crescent.

Yu Qirong quickly turned his head to look in the direction where the smell of blood came from, with an alert expression, but saw a familiar figure.
