Chapter 71: 6th instance: Much worse than Xiao Cheng had envisage (part 3 of 3)

While looking around, the two suddenly heard the sound of something being pushed over and breaking from the dilapidated house on the side.

“It looks like his in that place.” Gu Wuji voiced.

The house seemed to have been unoccupied for a while, with broken windows. It was completely different from the surrounding houses without red lanterns, and looked like a haunted house.

Just as the two persons were about to move forward, the ghost that Gu Wuji held captive began to tremble, “Sir-, no, boss, I beg you, can you release me first?”

Gu Wuji: “Why? We still haven’t reminisced that long, ah.”

Reminisce on what!?

The ghost fearfully disclosed: “This-, this house isn’t ordinary, ah! I dare not go in!”

Gu Wuji became a little curious, “You’re already a ghost yourself, yet you will still be afraid of this?”

“This is a very normal thing! People will also be afraid of other people, okay. We, ghosts have an even wider gap in strength. If we were to be accidentally swallowed by other ghosts, then wouldn’t it be too miserable!” The ghost quickly said: “You see, the others ghosts with a bit of intelligence will never run to this place, otherwise, why would I have hidden here……”

“Oh?”

“This place is a murder house. It is said that the owner had sold his daughter for profit, but when the daughter turned into a ghost, she came back to seek revenge, killing everyone.” The ghost said, “After that, their souls became confined here. The few people in these house were superb when they were still alive, and have become even more terrifying now that they have turned into ghosts. Your friend is estimated to already be in precarious situation! I advise you to leave quickly, okay.”

“So that’s it.” Gu Wuji said: “Then we should head inside.”

The ghost froze up, “What-……”

“Seeing as you know so much, then you must surely know them very well. Kindly trouble you to lead the way, of course, I will protect you properly and will never put you in any danger.” Gu Wuji said in a gentle manner.

Such lines added onto such a gentle tone and this very attractive face, could have estimated to confuse and bedazzle any other individual here.

But the ghost seemed to feel a strange tremor deep inside, and felt an unreasonably much stronger sense of fear compared to before. What’s more, Qi Yunxiu, who was next to him, really looked like he wanted to kill a ghost. So it could only repeatedly nod even though it was afraid.

After all, if a dangerous situation was encountered later, it would always still be better than being killed outside now!

When the group stepped into the murder house, there were rather a few pairs of blood-red eyes looking outside, in addition to the echoes of which seems to be snickers.

That opened wooden door, even looked like a huge mouth determining which person to devour, making people apprehensive on whether they would still be able to leave after entering.

They had just taken a step into the threshold, when the door abruptly shut.

…………

……

Hiding on the second floor of the house, Xiao Cheng had finally been able to breath a sigh of relief upon seeing Gu Wuji and Qi Yunxiu enter.

He originally planned to attract a lot of ghosts, in order to make things difficult. When these two thinks of escaping, he would then guide them a bit, so they would enter this murder house, in order for his scheme to succeed.

But never expected, that the impressive-looking ghost along the way would actually be so useless. Not to mention scaring Gu Wuji; on the contrary, it had been frightened out of it’s wits by Gu Wuji, and had still provided a lot of information that made these two discover even more about the mainline plot.

There’s absolutely no way Xiao Cheng would allow these two to leave successfully. After all, what would have been the point of him coming along in the first place? So, he immediately put on an act of being taken away by ghosts. Fortunately, this Sun Shi was really more foolish than he had thought. To still behave as a good person in this kind of instance, was simply very ludicrous.

“So long as they enter this place, it would be impossible to leave anymore!” Xiao Cheng looked downstairs with a sneer, “The strength of the ghosts in this house are naturally so-so as well. But the thing they’re good at is their ability to enclose this space, making it impossible for the players inside to use their skills or items.”

Even Xiao Cheng had also acted very cautiously when he entered this place. He made use of a special item that can cover up his breath, only then was he able to avoid the detection of the other ghosts and take cover in the safe second floor.

“Even the most powerful player, in such circumstances where skills and items cannot be used, will be no different from an ordinary person, and can only wait for death when faced with ghosts!”

Although Xiao Cheng didn’t have a way to personally witness how Gu Wuji and Qi Yunxiu were doing in the room, but he could imagine, that those two must be especially miserable now, and would no longer be as arrogant as when they were before him……

“Weren’t they usually so strong? But now that skills are unable to be used, then they must already be very terrified to be surrounded by ghosts. They should now be in a pinch, and weeping bitter tears in fright……” Xiao Cheng felt very carefree as he thought of this, and began to regret on how he couldn’t personally witness that scene.

But while feeling immensely proud deep inside, he completely failed to notice, that a shadow had unknowingly appeared behind him, and from above that black shadow, were countless black hair strands slowly extending.

…………

……

There indeed was a miserable scene inside the house.

But was much worse than Xiao Cheng had envisage.

The ghost that Gu Wuji towed along had already been shuddering in a corner. The scene in front of it can almost give rise to a lifelong psychological shadow.

At this time, the few ghosts in the room which Xiao Cheng held very high expectations for, all had bloody noses, bruised faces, ragged clothes, and had shrunk to the ground in fear. Looking at the two living person in the vicinity — With an extremely fearful appearance, especially when looking at Gu Wuji.

If someone else was able to see this scene, then they will probably doubt life, and wonder who in the end was actually the person and ghost.
