Chapter 71 Two-Faced Ghost
The team had just returned to silence when someone suddenly screamed again.
"Gone! His body! Gone!"
The sound of fear, like the beating of a drum, rang in everyone's heart.
Everyone looked at the ground and saw that the body of the guard who had just been killed by Ye Junyan with a sword through his heart had disappeared.
There was only a trail of blood on the ground, indicating that everything that had just happened had really happened.
Feng Yi, who was peeping at all this, hissed and took a breath of cold air.
Wen Yingxue asked, "Did you see it clearly just now? I blinked and the body disappeared. What on earth could be so fast?"
Feng Yi frowned and said, "I just saw it. I saw two faces! One person, with two faces."
Wen Yingxue felt her hair stand on end and a layer of sweat immediately broke out on her body. She rubbed her arms, rubbed against Feng Yi, and huddled close to him.
"Are you seeing things? How can there be two faces? Is it a human or a ghost?"
Feng Yidao said: "I can be sure that it is a human. Although it is very fast, they are breathing."
Wen Yingxue gasped: "They? Are there more than one?"
Feng Yi closed his eyes, then opened them again and said, "There are seven."
Seven! It seems that this time, Ye Junyan, Lin Youwan and the others are probably in great danger.
"Ah!" Suddenly, a scream cut through the sky, frightening everyone who was already nervous.
"What's wrong?" Lin Youwan turned around and asked.
The guard who had just sent out the message said, "Just now, the person next to me was snatched away by a black shadow!"
Ye Junyan asked, "Did you see clearly what it was?"
The guard shook his head, his face pale, and said, "No, I only saw a black shadow. It was too fast!"
Lin Youwan immediately shouted, "Everyone, turn your backs inwards and face outwards! Come here! Count!"
Soon, the counting round was completed, and Ye Junyan and Lin Youwan looked at each other in shock.
Because in just a short period of time, five of the twenty-eight people they brought were gone!
"Prince! Miss Lin! What should we do? We haven't even seen what it is, and we've lost so many people."
Lin Youwan said, "Light a few more bonfires. This time I want to see what it is."
The method was quite effective. This time, no one disappeared without a trace. Finally, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Unfortunately, before he could catch his breath, in full view of everyone, a person, no! To be more precise, a humanoid monster, crawled over on the ground, using both hands and feet to quickly crawl over.
The target is Lin Youwan.
Wen Yingxue, who was spying on this place with Feng Yi, saw the monster heading towards Lin Youwan, and immediately lit a candle for it in her mind.
There are a bunch of soft persimmons, but you insist on finding a hard stone to squeeze. If you don’t die, who will die?
As expected, as the leader of the killer organization, Lin Youwan reacted extremely quickly. The dagger was as fast as lightning and pierced into the heart of the humanoid monster cleanly and neatly.
With a thud, the monster fell to the ground, dead.
Ye Junyan walked over and asked caringly, "Wan'er, how are you? Are you okay?"
Lin Youwan shook her head and said, "I'm fine. Now let's see what this thing is."
Ye Junyan nodded, drew out his sword, and tentatively poked the corpse on the ground. Seeing that it was really dead, he bent down and checked.
The corpse was turned over, face up, and suddenly, there was a sound of gasps all around.
Wen Yingxue was a little far away and couldn't see clearly, but Feng Yi was very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. When he saw the corpse on the ground, his pupils shrank.
"Senior Feng Yi, did you see it?" Wen Yingxue asked.
Feng nodded and was about to speak when several sharp screams of fear suddenly rang out from Ye Junyan's team.
"Two-faced ghost! It really is a two-faced ghost!"
The corpse on the ground surprisingly had two faces. One was a normal face, and on the cheek of this face, there was another lifelike face.
Looking at the terrified expressions of the crowd, the corners of the mouth seemed to rise slightly, which was terrifying and weird.
Even Ye Junyan and Lin Youwan felt their scalps tingling.
Ye Jun stood up hurriedly and stabbed the face full of evil smile with the sword in his hand.
He used all his strength until the face was destroyed and covered in blood, and the original appearance could not be seen. Only then did Ye Junyan breathe a sigh of relief and take a few steps back.
The guards around were all shocked and stood there in a daze.
At this time, Lin Youwan stood up and said, "This is not a two-faced ghost at all. Look, it has a shadow and can bleed."
Although everyone was still a little scared, they gradually gained courage after seeing Lin Youwan's confident words.
"Ms. Lin, you are very knowledgeable. Could you please tell us what exactly this thing is? If it is a human, why is it so terrifying and has two faces?"
Lin Youwan said, "I once read about a similar situation in a book. It's called parasitic twin."
Ye Junyan asked in confusion: "What is a parasitic twin?"
"This man's mother was pregnant with two children, but there was only so much nutrition to share between the two children, so the other stronger child would absorb the weaker one.
When it was absorbed, it wasn't completely absorbed, leaving behind a face or other body part that grew on the face or body of his older brother. This is called a parasitic twin."
Seeing that Lin Youwan's words were well-reasoned, everyone couldn't help but believe her.
"Then why are they here? And why did they attack us?"
Ye Junyan said: "That person once said that many caravans passing by have encountered the two-faced ghost, and all the members of the team were killed here.
Is there a possibility that the lair of these two-faced ghosts is nearby?"
Lin Youwan nodded: "This is very likely. Now that we know it is a human and not a ghost, there is no need to be afraid anymore.
Now everyone is on guard, waiting for daybreak."
Twenty-five people, huddled together, surrounded by a bonfire, didn't seem so scary anymore.
"There has been no movement for such a long time. Have those two-faced people retreated?" After waiting for a while, Wen Yingxue saw that Long Yi's tense body finally relaxed, and asked Feng Yi beside her.
Feng nodded, then looked at Wen Yingxue with sparkling eyes.
For some reason, Wen Yingxue suddenly felt something was wrong.
"Senior Feng Yi, don't look at me like that. I'm scared." Wen Yingxue said.
"Hehe!" Feng smiled.
This time, even Long Yi silently took two steps back. Although he couldn't see Feng Yidu's face, just the laughter made Long Yi feel a little scared.
Feng Yi said excitedly: "I have lived here for a long time before, and I have never seen such a two-faced person. I am curious, let's go to their lair and take a look!"
Wen Yingxue and Long Yi immediately stepped back and shook their heads in refusal, but were forcibly suppressed by force.
Led by Feng Yi again, the three of them quietly followed those two-faced people.
