Chapter 101 I can’t let her catch her breath while I’m here, right?
According to the rules of horror movies, if she turned around and left now, the teacher would probably follow her immediately and climb onto her shoulders in a sneaky way.
Hmm? Looks familiar.
Or come face to face with her the moment she turns her head.
Looks more familiar...
More than just familiar! Wasn't that the old man just now appearing like this?
Going up to say hello was just a direct pass, although this step was more in line with the heroine's suicide-seeking behavior in horror movies, but she was not so stubborn, nor so stupid.
So after considering for a while, Xu Xingxing chose to look at her and slowly backed away.
If the enemy doesn't move, I move slowly. I compete with the enemy in patience.
In a moment, Xu Xingxing took two steps back, and beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his cheeks to his chin.
The female ghost did not move.
After two breaths, Xu Xingxing's legs felt a little weak, but he still took two more steps with strength.
The female ghost still did not move.
After three breaths, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and Xu Xingxing hurriedly tried to protect the candle in her hand. Because she was already nervous, she only looked at the flame for a moment, but when she raised her eyes again, the female ghost who was several meters away was now standing within one step of her.
Xu Xingxing's body stiffened instantly.
The ghost girl was covered in moisture, her long hair completely obscuring her face. Her feet, which had turned white from being soaked in water, were stretched straight, and her wet white clothes were constantly dripping with water. The water quickly overflowed, completely soaking Xu Xingxing's shoes.
The coolness from the soles of his feet made Xu Xingxing's body tremble uncontrollably, and the candle in his hand went out at this moment.
Thick darkness suddenly enveloped her, and her vision turned black in an instant. She should have complained, but her mind was empty. She should have run away, but her body was so stiff that she couldn't even turn her neck.
But her eyes quickly adapted to the darkness, and she took in everything in front of her in a daze.
The ghost girl's long hair had been lifted up, revealing a pale and terrifying face. Her dark eyes stared at her intently, and she stretched her neck straight towards her.
The wet and fishy smell hits your face, and the rotten stench enters your nose.
At this moment, Xu Xingxing finally understood what true fear was and the most authentic physical reaction of humans when faced with terror that they could not handle.
Her body seemed to no longer belong to her. Not to mention escaping, she couldn't even feel the existence of her legs. It seemed that the only organ left in her body was her heart. She could only hear its heavy heartbeat, and even her own breathing disappeared for no reason.
The head stopped two inches away from him, and Xu Xingxing could even clearly see the rotten white flesh on the ghost girl's face. Her eyeballs were extremely black, and the whites of her eyes were oozing with blood.
Bloodshot gnawing at her eyes like tiny maggots, and soon a stream of blood slowly flowed from the corner of her eye.
The female ghost looked at Xu Xingxing like this, and suddenly opened her mouth.
A pile of bloody flesh gushed out of the mouth and fell onto Xu Xingxing's clothes in front of her chest. The fishy smell and the exploding scene immediately broke the strings in her brain, and she passed out.
.
Xu Xingxing had nightmares all night. Sometimes she saw giants, sometimes a female ghost face, sometimes a skinny old man, and sometimes strange footprints. She had nowhere to escape and nowhere to go. There were ghost shadows everywhere and strange traces everywhere.
She was panic-stricken and had no one to turn to for help. Her resistance was met with more threats until a clear ring sounded.
The sound was not loud, but it instantly soothed all her fears, her panic was completely dispelled, and her heart calmed down after a long time.
Then he fell into a deep sleep.
When she woke up again, the scene before she fainted instantly flooded into her mind. She felt extremely nauseous and her stomach was churning. When she wanted to get up, she suddenly felt that her whole body was completely trapped and she couldn't move at all!
Sleep paralysis?!
But her legs were still able to move, so she kicked and kicked around like a Hot Wheels.
It seemed like she kicked something, but she had no time to think. Fortunately, her whole body quickly relaxed and the feeling of suffocation suddenly disappeared. She crawled directly to the head of the bed and started to retch.
bedside?
She was stunned for a while, and her brain cells finally returned to their normal state.
No, why is she back?
She looked up and saw that it was already daybreak. Although it was still very dark, it was much better than last night.
The room was still decorated the same as last night, yet it was completely different.
There was no dust at all, and even the vase contained a rather lush green plant.
The quilt on my body became soft and warm, without any musty smell, and it was surprisingly comfortable.
However, in Xu Xingxing's eyes, these seemed even more terrifying.
So, she was transported into a horror movie!
According to the law of traveling through books (movies?), people will not travel through time and space to a completely unfamiliar book or movie, especially a world of this hellish difficulty.
But as of now, everything here feels very unfamiliar to her.
So should there be some system to explain it to myself?
Or was it because she didn't go out of the area she walked last night, so no one noticed?
But she really didn't have the courage to take another step outside.
As soon as this thought came to mind, the dryness in my throat surged up.
Xu Xingxing, whose throat was smoking again: ...
So, we have to drink this water, right?
Was there something controlling her senses? How could she be so thirsty so suddenly and absurdly?
As she was thinking this, she saw the kettle she had taken out yesterday, which was now placed neatly beside her bed.
A chill surged in his heart. Xu Xingxing looked at the pot for a long time, then sat up, gritted his teeth and opened it.
Then he crawled to the edge of the bed and started retching.
There was water inside, but the water was full of black hair.
Thinking back to what happened last night, she almost felt like fainting again.
Damn it! Can't you just let her breathe?
The temperature all over his body dropped instantly, making Xu Xingxing shiver with cold, but the temperature quickly rose again, as if the feeling just now was just an illusion.
She glanced at the kettle and found that it was suddenly empty.
Xu Xingxing's heart trembled violently, and he raised his hand and threw the kettle to the ground. The kettle rolled several times on the wooden floor and stopped when it hit the corner of the table.
Then, a skinny little hand slowly stretched out from Hukou.
But she only stuck out half of it before the kettle suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and at the same time her head began to hurt violently.
The pain lasted only a moment, then inexplicably got better, and the disappeared kettle was now neatly placed on the small table beside the bed, just as it was at the beginning of this morning.
Damn it, really damn it.
Xu Xingxing felt her whole body go numb, and she was terrified when she thought about it. She was anxious and frightened. She immediately shrank to the corner of the bed, wrapped herself in the quilt, and dared not move anymore.
Even though she was covered with a quilt, she felt extremely cold all over. She couldn't control her shaking and was covered in cold sweat.
From the time she came here until now, she felt that she was strong enough, but now, she really can't bear it anymore.
Why was she here? What was she doing before she came here? Why did she get involved in such a bizarre thing? What did she do wrong? Why was she being punished like this?
She was so scared. What should she do?
Tears welled up in her eyes. Xu Xingxing curled up in the corner, looking at the kettle warily and crying silently.
But she didn't know that at this moment, someone was looking at her, his eyes full of pity, and his heart ached even more as if it were crushed.
But he only dared to stand by the bed and couldn't even hug her.
Last night, Hou Yuan finally found Xingxing among thousands of illusion arrays. He saw her fainting from being scared by a female ghost. As soon as he appeared, the female ghost disappeared in vain, along with the dry well, water stains, and the blood on Xingxing's clothes.
He carried the woman back to the room and used magic to clean the room from top to bottom. He held her in his arms and lay down all night. In the morning, he saw the woman struggling and kicking in extreme panic. After calling her several times, he finally realized that his star could not see him.
He tried to intervene, but it only made the woman more frightened. Moreover, when he was about to kill the evil spirit in the pot, he almost hurt Xingxing's soul.
If you think about it carefully, the things in this illusion all come from the depths of Xingxing's heart, and must be closely connected with her soul. She is now seriously injured, so naturally, if she is not careful, she will be seriously injured.
And because his soul was too weak, he lost all his star power and became an ordinary mortal.
And when she needed him the most, he was not only useless but also caused trouble.
For the first time in his life, he wanted to swear like Xing Xing, but a small illusion forced him to this point.
The anger in his heart piled up layer by layer, but he suppressed it forcefully. The most important thing at the moment was the stars, and he would settle the score after he came out of the illusion array.
He looked at the woman lying on the corner of the bed like a frightened little animal, and his heart felt soft and painful. Even if he couldn't help her right now, he had to think of a way quickly to prevent her from being so scared.
He searched the room for paper and pen, but couldn't find any. After a moment of deliberation, he broke off the plant from the vase, used magic to break it into pieces, and then formed two words in the air.
'I am here. '
If Xingxing knew he was here, she would probably calm down a little.
But unlike what he expected, the woman's expression suddenly became even more terrified, tears streaming from her eyes like beads with broken strings, and she even picked up a pillow and threw it at the words.
He threw it while shrilly cursing:
"roll!"
Niu Yuan was stunned and dazed. He couldn't understand why Xingxing was so afraid and disgusted?
But Xu Xingxing's intense reaction was quite understandable.
This formation was too powerful. It captured her soul and controlled her five senses. Although it was clearly green branch and leaf debris, in her eyes it was a patchwork of eerie crimson bloodstains.
And those two huge "I am here" are more like warnings and intimidation than salvation and comfort.
She had now been pushed to the brink of collapse by this series of shocks and tortures. As soon as these two words came out, she screamed and suddenly felt a lack of oxygen in her chest. She felt suffocated and couldn't breathe and fainted again.
Wei Yuan became even more flustered and felt extremely guilty.
He put the woman down and covered her with a quilt. After that, he never dared to touch her again, not even to sit on the bed.
After the woman fell asleep, ghosts disappeared, all weirdness retreated, and everything froze except time.
He lifted his coat and sat on the footstool, looking at her quietly like this until the sky gradually darkened, and he did not dare to touch her again.
And in this extreme silence, those vague and abnormal things gradually became clear.
Why are the ghosts and monsters in the starry world not afraid of him?
For the woman who created them was not afraid of him.
Why can't the stars see him?
Because he was in the formation, the formation could detect the fear in his heart, and because it could not restrain him, it all reflected back to the body of the star.
He was afraid that the stars would leave him, and even more afraid that he would not be able to protect the stars.
So he clearly sensed the breath of the stars before entering the formation, but it took him so long to find her illusion formation.
So even if he stood in front of the stars, the stars would ignore him. Even if he tried to help, he was completely distorted in the eyes of the stars.
Changed appearance?
So are the two words seen in the stars' eyes also different?
Are there any other changes that he doesn't know about?
Perhaps only when the stars wake up again will he know the whole truth.
He looked at the woman and moved his hand to her fingertips. Just when he was about to touch them, he stopped and didn't dare to take another step forward.
He had just carefully completed this action when he suddenly saw the woman open her eyes, and her eyes looked directly at him, fixed on his face.
