After walking around the Bai family's old house, Chi Shen had cordial and friendly conversations with every resident and politely asked them whether they were willing to stay. Fortunately, the residents here were all easy to talk to and communicate with. All the remaining residents agreed to his request to move in and agreed to get along with each other in a friendly manner.
But he still didn't understand why the Bai family's old house was full of ghosts. Were the ghosts here deliberately raised by the Bai family, or were there other deeper reasons?
Now there is only one resident left.
Chi Shen looked towards the main house located in the center of the mansion.
This time, without waiting for Chi Shen to ask, the headless ghost took the initiative to say, "We call this place the 'Death Place'. I don't know what's inside. Whenever I get close to it, I feel the fear of being torn apart. I don't dare to go there."
"Brother, it's very scary over there. Don't go over there. You'll die." The little boy in the shroud also showed a look of fear. "I saw a ghost walking over there before, but before it got close to the door... it turned into pieces of snowflakes."
Even the head of the red-clothed female ghost who had lost all hope in life began to whine, but no one here could understand what she was saying.
Seeing that Chi Shen was still going forward, the female ghost in red immediately grabbed the railing with her only remaining hand and tried to run.
"This is the last future friend." Chi Shen said, "Thank you for showing me the way and explaining the interests and hobbies of each resident. You've worked hard. You can go back and rest first."
“Unfortunately…” The headless ghost got stuck in the middle of his sentence.
The three ghosts looked at each other, and the red-dressed female ghost took the lead and disappeared, dragging her head with her hands. The headless ghost finally realized that he was free! Go!
The one who reacted the slowest was the little boy in the shroud. As soon as he turned around, he was grabbed by Chi Shen.
Despair appeared in the eyes of the little boy in the shroud. If he ran too slowly, would he die? !
"There's something on your clothes."
Chi Shen shook off a talisman behind the little boy in the shroud like shaking off dust, and then said, "Go back and rest."
The little boy in the shroud was so moved that tears almost welled up in his eyes. He ran through the wall at a speed he had never run before, laughing as he ran, and soon he disappeared.
Seeing such cheerful ghosts, Chi Shen felt himself being infected and began to smile.
Then he looked at the talisman in his hand. In the death game, he was more focused on studying how to kill ghosts using ghost methods rather than controlling ghosts with talismans, so he didn't study talismans too much.
He put the talisman away and decided to ask someone knowledgeable about it later.
The main house of the old house looks very normal. Compared with those houses with unknown water drops dripping, talismans pasted on them, or blood oozing out, it is indeed very normal.
There wasn't even any spell on the room, just a seal.
Chi Shen walked over slowly. A faint smell of blood came from the direction of the main house. He felt that he had stepped into the territory of a certain evil spirit. A sense of oppression came from the main house. That sense of oppression seemed to evoke the dark side of a person's heart, making people want to tear apart and devour something. With every step, he encountered resistance from the direction of the main house.
In the death game, Chi Shen has seen thousands of ghosts and encountered all kinds of strange abilities. This is not the first time he has encountered a ghost that can arouse people's violent desires, but it is the first time he has seen such a powerful ghost with this ability.
The emotions that a ghost can influence are often the emotions that the ghost itself desires. Chi Shen couldn't help but wonder what this ghost had experienced in his life that gave him such a powerful, brutal and violent ability.
There were a few words written in dark red pen on the seal of the gate: Trespassers will be killed!
Chi Shen was extremely sensitive to the colour red and he could tell at a glance that it was dried blood.
——
Two young men walked through the old and dilapidated carved corridor, which was filled with the smell of mildew.
He Chao's face was a little sour. They had just passed by several ghosts. Although they did not suffer any substantial harm, the scene still made people feel scared instinctively.
Lu Xiangyang's face turned pale, and he looked around cautiously as he walked, and he was even a little unsteady as he walked.
"Brother Chao, did you hear the sound of dripping water?" Lu Xiangyang tried to get closer to He Chao and spoke in a low voice.
"It hasn't rained in the past few days, so why is there a dripping sound?" He Chao said irritably, "Hurry up, make sure that the boy is not dead, I have to go back and report!"
Lu Xiangyang hurriedly trotted two steps and whispered, "There really is a sound of dripping water..."
He Chao ignored him and took two steps forward. Suddenly, he reached out and wiped his face. A stench of dead fish came from his hand: "Where did the water come from..."
He raised his head and looked up. The first thing he saw was a pair of feet wearing red high heels, which were swollen and blue. Then he saw a tattered skirt with water plants hanging on it. Water droplets were sliding down the edge of the skirt. The rest of the person was hidden in the darkness of the roof, so they could only see the lower half of the body.
A pale hand stretched out from the darkness above his head, as if trying to grab He Chao.
He Chao ran away.
Lu Xiangyang was so frightened that he sat on the ground. He reacted quickly. When he saw He Chao running away, he immediately got up and followed him, wailing: "Brother Chao, didn't you say that ghosts won't hurt us?"
"This is instinct! Do you understand instinct?" He Chao was very unhappy to be told this by his junior, and turned around and yelled.
"Brother Chao, don't run anymore, stop now!" Lu Xiangyang looked ahead with an extremely frightened expression.
"Stop, you're going to fight the ghost—"
Pop.
He Chao felt like he had bumped into something cold. He touched his face and saw water stains all over it.
He Chao turned back slowly.
"Tick, tick."
The sound of dripping water was right in front of me.
The woman's face was covered with long black hair like seaweed just fished out of the river. The moment He Chao turned his head, the long hair parted in the middle, and a huge mouth that could swallow a football suddenly opened, revealing sharp fangs, and it seemed that it was about to bite off He Chao's head in one bite.
He Chao was completely stunned. He had been in contact with ghosts since he was a child and knew many ways to subdue evil spirits, but it was too late now... He would die in a cruel and disgusting way.
When the fangs were about to touch He Chao's head, a golden light suddenly emerged from the talisman behind the female ghost, and five or six translucent hands stretched out from the talisman and grabbed the female ghost's limbs and head.
The eyeballs were squeezed out of their sockets by invisible arms, the swollen legs were broken, the lips were split, and the female ghost let out a silent roar——
"ah!!!"
The hand stretched out from the talisman was like the most ruthless commandment, crushing the female ghost bit by bit, and finally dragging the broken body of the female ghost away into the depths of the old house.
Lu Xiangyang was still in shock. He Chao looked at the disappearance of the female ghost, smiled sinisterly, and gently shook the water stains in his hand to the ground. He said, "I told you, the ghosts in here can't hurt us."
With the female ghost as a reference, He Chao became tough and continued to move forward with a swagger.
Lu Xiangyang asked with trembling lips: "These ghosts are so powerful, what could be in the main house? I heard someone mention that his name is--"
"Don't say the name!" He Chao's face changed immediately, and he interrupted Lu Xiangyang with an expression of uncontrollable fear, "In this place, you call the evil spirit's name directly, do you want to die?"
Lu Xiangyang immediately covered his mouth.
"Don't mention it, don't think about it, and don't go to the main house." He Chao warned him.
Lu Xiangyang covered his mouth all the time and walked with He Chao to the house where Chi Shen lived. He Chao took out a sachet from his pocket, unwrapped the plastic paper, and a smell of smoke and dust hit his face.
"What is this?" Lu Xiangyang asked in a low voice.
"The powder is made from the hair of corpses over a hundred years old," He Chao threw the sachet in through the window with a sinister smile, "Ghosts will feel uncomfortable when they smell this, but they will also be attracted to it. After they smell it for three days, they will go crazy. By then, this place will be full of crazy evil spirits."
Lu Xiangyang shrank his neck and dared not speak.
At this moment, a little boy's head suddenly popped out from a door.
"Big brother, let's play hide and seek together!"
Lu Xiangyang took a step back cautiously. He Chao looked at him and sneered, "I said, they can't hurt us."
Lu Xiangyang shook his head to express his fear.
As if he felt that he had lost his composure just now, in order to redeem his image, He Chao looked at the child and showed a cruel smile: "Come on, I'll play with you."
The little boy laughed immediately, with two blushes on his pale face that stood out. He looked at the two with his black and white eyes: "We've agreed that whoever gets caught will lose one thing!"
——
Chi Shen pushed open the door of the main house.
The yin energy came like a sword, and the whole main house was shrouded in eerie ghostly aura. This kind of yin energy was even at the BOSS level in the death game. Chi Shen's clothes soon began to show small tears, but he seemed not to notice it and raised his head to look inside the door.
There was a person hanging upside down inside the door.
Chains as thick as wrists were spread across the hall of the main house, piercing the man's body, binding his legs, and hanging him upside down on the roof. One chain even went through his heart. Chi Shen could vaguely see that the heart was still beating slowly, and with every beat of the heart, blood dripped down the chain.
The chains were dyed red. It was hard to imagine that one person had so much blood.
The talismans were covered with chains. When the door was opened, the wind blew and all the talismans in the room floated in the night.
The smell of blood became stronger.
Chi Shen felt like he had walked into a sticky river of blood. The smelly blood surged and washed over his legs. The cold wind from the other side blew his clothes. The sky was blood red. On the scorched earth on both sides of the bank were piled up like mountains of ghost corpses. A young man was holding a strange knife and fighting with thousands of ghosts. His body was covered in smelly blood, but his face was expressionless. Only his flashing scarlet eyes showed his cruelty.
The bloody battles, the ruthless betrayal by teammates, and the life-threatening situations that had been pushed deep into Chi Shen's memory when he returned, surged up in the ocean of Chi Shen's memory, and blood gushed out from the bottom of the sea like an eruption, polluting this ocean of memory.
Blood red filled his eyes, and a crack appeared between his eyebrows as if broken.
Chi Shen blinked.
The blood color faded, and his eyes were still black and white. He reached out and stroked the cracks on his face, and the cracks disappeared.
This ghost seems to be able to make people fall into the cruelest memories and lose themselves in them.
But Chi Shen did not resist these memories. He had accepted them long ago and chose to live with these bloody memories filled with evil spirits and hatred.
It was this gift that caught people by surprise.
Chi Shen tapped his lower lip with his index finger and suddenly laughed.
Along with his laughter, the bloody smell in the room receded like a tide, and was replaced by a chill as cold as hell. The chains clanged in the cold wind, and white frost condensed on the talismans. The white frost climbed up along the chains, and if it went any further, it would freeze the heart overflowing with blood!
Chi Shen decided to help this locked-up "friend".
Although he didn't know why this man was hung upside down, he could indeed help put him down to make him feel better, and then ask him if he knew the relationship between the Bai family and this place, and if he was willing to let him stay here for a while.
If he is willing, he can give himself a little help. If he is not willing, he can also help the other person get rid of this pain forever.
Standing among the frost and snow, Chi Shen smiled politely and friendly: "You seem to be in trouble, do you need help?"
A bloody hand reached out from the darkness.
