Chapter 102 Who is it? No, no, no...
It was already midnight when Xu Xingxing woke up again. The light of the candle was still the same yellow bean size. Because she was sleeping on her side, the moment she opened her eyes, she saw white clothes hanging by the bed.
She froze for a moment, and out of the corner of her eye she saw the female ghost looking down at her along the white clothes. She moved faster than her brain and immediately closed her eyes, pretending not to see it.
Of course, this behavior is very deceptive.
Her heart was pounding and she was devastated. After fainting twice in a row, this devastation hit rock bottom and she felt like she had given up.
I can’t survive anyway, they keep pushing me to death wave after wave!
Die, damn it, before you scare me to death, I'm going to pull out a bunch of your hair!
The chillness around her body intensified, as if a breath was brushing against her ears, but after waiting for a while, she didn't hear any cold, damp ghostly whispers. It also seemed as if a strand of hair brushed against her face, making the tip of her nose itch.
She moved her fingers to make sure she was not too cowardly to move this time. When she gritted her teeth and prepared to fight back, she suddenly heard a ringing sound. Her heart skipped a beat and the panic in her heart instantly dissipated a lot.
The sound of the bell was clear, bright, crisp and melodious, very similar to what she heard in her dream. At this moment, she clearly felt that the bell that made the sound was right next to her.
She subconsciously wanted to open her eyes, but her reason quickly commanded her hands to press down her eyelids that were about to open.
Didn't you get enough of close-quarters beatings? Didn't you learn your lesson?
As I was thinking this, I suddenly heard quite regular footsteps coming from the door, one after another, coming from far away and getting closer. It seemed particularly strange in the dead of night.
Soon, the footsteps stopped in front of the door, paused for two breaths, and then knocked on the door.
Boom, boom, boom
Boom, boom, boom
Every three knocks, there would be a pause, and the fingers hitting the wooden door panel made a hollow and dull sound, which made people's heartbeats tremble unconsciously with the sound.
Xu Xingxing's throat was choked and he didn't respond.
Soon, the knocking sound became more intense, from knocking to knocking, and then from knocking to banging on the door, and soon the door made a broken creaking sound.
Xu Xingxing closed her eyes and sat up, listening attentively towards the door. She stroked her chest and relaxed for a while. Just as she was mentally prepared to open her eyes and get out of bed, another ring rang and the doorway instantly became quiet.
Xu Xingxing was stunned. At this moment, she could hear more clearly the direction and distance of the ringtone.
She touched her heartbeat, and instead of panic, she felt a strong warmth and familiarity.
Reason told her that she should be cautious and pretend that she had not heard it, but the warmth in her heart soon turned into a trace of desire. She felt as if in a dream, and her hand slowly reached out to that place uncontrollably.
My fingertips feel cold.
It is a round bell.
She flicked it gently, but there was no sound.
After waiting for a while and seeing that there was no strange movement, she became bolder.
She held the bell in her hand, and her fingertips inevitably touched a piece of soft skin. Her heart trembled, and she wanted to withdraw her hand, but before she could react, her hand was held by a pair of warm big hands.
Very warm.
The warmth made her whole body tremble, as if the dampness and coldness around her were completely dispelled by this warmth.
This is the warmth she has missed so much and longed for these days.
Human warmth.
She opened her eyes with joy and looked in that direction, but her heart tightened.
Empty, nothing.
In addition to the female ghost's location, a black gas inexplicably emerged.
This black gas seemed a bit out of place in this area, but she had seen too many things that broke her cognition in the past few days, so when she saw this thick black gas at first glance, she actually thought it was not so bad.
At this moment, what concerned her most was what was within her reach.
It was right in front of me, and the touch of her hand and palm seemed so real, but I couldn't see anything.
The hand holding hers was clasped tightly, as if afraid she would escape, yet it was trembling slightly, revealing an unignorable panic.
it……
It seems that he has no ill will towards himself.
So, she didn't move anymore, letting him hold it. Then she estimated the position of his eyes, tried to look him in the eye, and asked:
"Who are you?"
Zhu Yuan's body stiffened suddenly, and his aura suddenly dropped, causing the woman to shiver.
The woman tried to pull her hand away again, but he came out of his anger and resentment and raised the temperature around him to its original level.
So, not only did his star lose sight of him, it also forgot him?
But before he could reply, the woman suddenly let out a low cry and covered her forehead tightly.
Her brows were furrowed, her face was extremely pale, even her lips had lost their color. He no longer cared about anything else and sat down beside the bed, holding the woman in his arms.
The woman was probably too painful to resist. She rested her forehead on his arm and clutched his sleeve tightly, as if she was grabbing a floating duckweed for survival, squeezing until her fingertips turned white.
Sporadic chatter came out of her mouth, causing Wei Yuan's breathing to stop for a moment. The voice was intermittent and extremely difficult, but every word was calling his name.
"Xiao...Xiao...Hei."
Therefore, it was Jinling who stimulated Xingxing's memory, which caused her such a headache now.
Those sobbing whispers, like cries for help, entered his ears and made his head ache.
But since it concerns her soul, he cannot act rashly. He hugged the woman tightly, and even though he knew she could not hear him, he still called her over and over again, saying "I'm here."
The woman's tears burned his skin. He had never felt so useless as he did at that moment. It would be better if he were tortured to death or his heart and lungs were cut out.
Suddenly, the woman's body went limp, the strength in her hands loosened, and she fainted again.
He hugged the woman for a while before slowly letting her go.
After covering the woman with the quilt, his fingers lingered on her cheeks several times, his eyes deepened, and he leaned over and kissed her on the lips. He then summoned black energy to protect the woman before walking out of the room.
Although he could not erase the illusions created by the stars, the black air was the most evil air in the world. As he expected, as long as he surrounded those evil spirits in it and cast spells on them, they would be unable to move.
Just like the female ghost standing beside the bed.
Judging from Xingxing's reaction, she should be able to see the black air, so he can use this method to prevent Xingxing from seeing those terrifying faces.
Standing in front of the door, he looked up at the dark mist that had accumulated like a mountain in the sky. He opened his red lips and said a word:
"go."
The black energy seemed to have its own consciousness and quickly rushed to all the places in the illusion array where evil might be born.
The dry well, the dark room, the lake, the corner, even the crack in the door was not forgotten.
If we can't kill those evil spirits, why not just prevent them from coming out?
Zhu Yuan raised his eyes to look at the sky again, his eyes seemed to see through the layers of black air in the sky and look at something farther away.
He curled his lips slightly, revealing a sarcastic smile, and then thousands of space cracks appeared in the air in an instant. Then, the black air split into countless small black snake-like streams, which quickly meandered and flowed into the small illusion arrays.
In a short while, out of sight of everyone, the entire illusion array was completely wrapped in a thick layer of black air, making it airtight!
Oh……
Want to tear the demon soul apart and hide it in an illusion array?
How dare it have such delusions right under his nose? He wanted to see whether it could get what it wanted, or whether he would crush it to pieces with his own hands after it got out of this formation.
He will make the stars suffer in return a thousand times over.
After doing all this, he returned to the bedside, looked at the person on the bed, lifted his clothes and got on the bed, lying on his side facing her, but he didn't dare to hold her in his arms again. He just held her hand at the side, and then, like other things frozen in this illusion, he stared at the woman motionlessly until she woke up again.

Xu Xingxing felt a severe headache before she even opened her eyes, but she couldn't figure out why.
She took a while to calm down before opening her eyes. Seeing that she was still in this strange place, she felt very depressed.
So, she has to rely on herself to find out where this place is, right? Otherwise, she will have to stay here for the rest of her life, right?
She bit her knuckles anxiously, then made up her mind, put on her shoes and got out of bed.
You will be scared no matter where you stay. It is better to take the initiative than to just sit and wait for death!
She must find out what kind of novel or movie this world is, or what kind of infinite horror world it is.
After figuring it out, maybe she wouldn't be so scared anymore. After all, the greatest fear comes from the unknown.
She walked out of the room angrily and started walking around the mansion with a nervous heart.
Probably because it was daytime, the courtyard was still eerie today, but nothing strange happened.
Then why did she encounter those incredible things in the house several times yesterday?
Xu Xingxing looked around, fixed his gaze on the sky, and concluded wisely.
It must be because the yang energy is stronger outside during the day!
Her room was dark and airless, and it looked like it would easily breed evil things.
She walked through several more courtyards and found everything peaceful. She only saw some strange black air in some suspicious places. Everything else was normal, so normal that her courage grew stronger than it had been in a long time.
I even dared to stick my head out and look at the water when passing a bridge.
Of course, he just showed off for a moment and then quickly retreated to the center of the bridge.
But at this glance, she suddenly saw that there was some kind of headdress on her head.
If it were any other common ancient headdress, she probably wouldn't care too much, but this headdress... seems to be a bell?
She pulled it casually and found it quite difficult to pick.
He used both hands to try to untie it. It took him a long time and he lost a lot of hair before he finally took the bell off with a grimace.
She held it in her palm and examined it carefully.
A golden bell.
But the patterns on it are very strange, a cartoon dog and a star?
Um?
Um? ?
This thing is very modern.
What letter is this?
x- ing star?
h——
Suddenly, Xu Xingxing's body stiffened and he felt something grabbing his ankle.
No way, no way...
Aren't there ghosts outside during the day?
No way, no way...
She was just standing in the middle of the bridge obediently...
She looked down tremblingly, and then her heart stopped.
A bloody, withered hand emerged from the bridge, tightly gripping her ankle.
The scream that was about to burst out of her throat had not yet come out when the hand exerted a little force, and her body became lighter and she began to fall downwards.
Suddenly, a bell rang, and she suddenly flew into the air, then turned exaggeratedly several times in the air, and landed steadily on the flat ground in the distance.
The sudden ringing of the ringtone was like a gust of wind that instantly blew away the thick fog in her mind, causing the things that she had forgotten about last night to emerge rapidly like mushrooms after rain, and soon flourished in her mind.
There are also some rather vague fragments of memory.
Her head began to burn again, but it was no longer as unbearable as last night. From the fragmentary memories she had, she learned about the incident of traveling through the book, and at the same time, she discovered a new highlight.
She seems to have lost her memory.
Otherwise there is no way to explain where these memory fragments come from.
And some of the words in those memories can only be said by a modern person like her.
So, new problems arise.
Where is this? Why is she here, and why has she lost her memory?
She suddenly remembered the ringing sound that would ring whenever she was in danger, and felt that this should be the key to solving all the mysteries.
So, she held the bell in her hand, cleared her throat, and said to the surroundings:
"Um, are you still there?"
