Chapter 328: Ghost
"Innocent."
A light and rapid call, as if it was an illusion, was a little vague and it was impossible to tell where it came from.
Wuxie responded subconsciously and turned around, only to find that there was no one behind them.
The street lights illuminate the road brightly, but there is a faint darkness between the trees and bushes on both sides where the lights cannot reach.
"What's wrong?"
Fatty Wang followed him and looked back, but he didn't see any acquaintances, let alone a human figure.
"Wu Xie, you're so startled, what are you doing?"
He thought Wuxie was teasing him on purpose, so he patted Wuxie on the shoulder very rudely.
"It's okay, maybe I heard it wrong."
Wuxie replied casually and continued the gossip chat with great interest.
"Let me tell you, my third uncle stayed at the Jie family for over a week. After he came back, he lay paralyzed in bed for a whole day and night, sleeping soundly. Don't you think so..."
"Wu Xie!"
There was another urgent call, this time the voice was louder than the last time, so people would no longer think it was an illusion.
Wuxie's steps forward suddenly stopped, and even his conversation with Fatty Wang came to an abrupt end.
He was sure that someone had just called him. Although the pitch was high and sharp, the voice was very steady and it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman from the tone.
It doesn't seem like a human voice, but more like a mechanical sound synthesized by electronic software. It is rigid and stiff, without any trace of vitality or emotion from a living person.
The call was like a rootless duckweed, and he couldn't tell where it came from. Besides the call of his name, he didn't hear any other sound.
Apart from the two of them, there was no sound of breathing or footsteps, not even the sound of wind blowing through leaves.
"Fatty...did you hear any noise?"
Wuxie didn't dare to look back this time. He just kept his posture unchanged and asked Fatty Wang cautiously in a low voice.
He had a bad feeling.
In this situation, why does it feel so much like I've seen a ghost?
Everything was fine when he was in China. At most, he encountered a ghost blocking the road while racing in an uninhabited mountainous area, or he dug up a corpse from a grave. How come he encountered trouble as soon as he went abroad?
He had heard that sorcery was prevalent in Thailand and that many people raised ghosts. Could it be true?
Since there are so many people raising little ghosts, there must be many who are released into nature after they no longer want to worship them!
You can just bump into it casually!
Wuxie now just feels that he is unlucky and feels numb.
"What's that sound? Don't try to scare me, little naive kid. It's dark out here, and this kind of joke isn't funny at all. Be careful or we'll be friends forever."
Fatty Wang glanced at Wuxie with a deliberately disdainful expression, obviously thinking of Hei Xiazi who would occasionally get startled and mess with people's minds.
"No, I heard someone calling my name twice."
Wuxie's face was solemn. He felt a chill on his back, and he didn't know if it was a psychological effect or if it was true.
"What the hell? This... I didn't hear it either."
Fatty Wang tilted his head slightly and saw that Wuxie's expression didn't seem fake. It was dark now and there was no one around except the two of them. He felt a little uneasy in his heart.
The two were silent for a second, and the reliable Fatty Wang whispered a suggestion.
"Tian Zhen, don't move. I'll look back and see what's going on. If something's wrong, we'll run away."
Since only Wuxie heard the sound, it was estimated that if there really was a ghost, it must have targeted Wuxie, and he was safe for the time being.
He had to look back at the situation. If it was a zombie-like little ghost with a physical body that could only fight head-on, they might be able to fight it out and ask for help at the same time.
But if it is a purely conscious being or a ghost with treacherous means, they can only run away.
Fatty Wang slowly turned his head and carefully looked around, but found nothing unusual.
Instead of feeling relieved, he became even more alert.
"You can't tell what's behind, so don't scare yourself. Ghosts are afraid of bad people. The more you fear them, the more excited they become.
The hotel is not far from us. Let's keep going forward and don't look back. Everything will be fine once we reach Mo Ge and the others."
"Um."
Wuxie also knew this, and ran madly towards the front door of the hotel with Fatty Wang.
Also, when they just started running, Fatty Wang suddenly heard someone calling his name behind him. The last bit of luck that Wuxie had because of his poor hearing was gone. He felt his scalp tingling, and instantly burst out with his potential, running for his life.
When the two of them ran to the door of the hotel panting, they happened to bump into Hei Xia Zi who had returned last.
"Hey, what are you two doing running so fast for? You look so hurried. If I knew you, I'd think you were out running at night because you had nothing better to do after eating. If I didn't know you, I'd think you were being chased by ghosts."
Hei Xia Zi's words hit the nail on the head.
Wuxie and Fatty Wang both thought of the ghost behind Hei Xia Zi, the terrifying wedding dress ghost - Xiao Hong!
Very good, I'm not afraid anymore now.
"It's not a big deal, actually. I'll go in first and talk about it."
Wuxie took a deep breath and wiped his face again. Only then did he dare to look back.
The increasingly urgent calls came to an abrupt halt the moment they saw the black bear.
Wuxie told everyone about his encounter with a ghost, but everyone acted as if they were used to it and expected it.
"Hey, Brother Wuxie, you are not an ordinary person. I have known this for a long time."
Nan Xihe thought about how Wuxie had provoked him not long ago, but she didn't expect that the situation would change so quickly!
He found a way to fight back against Wuxie's ridicule so quickly, so of course he needed to smile and stab Wuxie in the heart.
"That's not true. Not everyone can open a coffin and raise a corpse. Comrade Wuxie is truly gifted, and he's popular with evil spirits, so he's welcome."
Hei Xia Zi was in a good mood at the moment, and was so willful that he even did not spare his own apprentice and made fun of him.
"Indeed, this is a blessing that many people envy."
Zhang Hailou seemed to be giving sincere words of comfort, but in fact he was just watching the fun from behind.
Wuxie couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard them singing the same tune.
What the hell is this blessing?
This blessing is given to you, do you want it?
"Alright, these are just minor matters. This country has always been known for its yin energy. With Wuxie's fate, it's perfectly normal for him to encounter something like this."
Zhang Moyu finally made a final conclusion and then gave a suggestion.
"Before returning home, you don't have to act alone. You can follow whoever you want except Nan Xihe."
Wuxie nodded with tears in her eyes. For the sake of his little heart, this was the only way for now.
