Chapter 4

As the main entrance closed, the whole room fell into darkness.

There were obviously 3 people, but nobody dared to make a sound, no one knew what was now happening outside, if the female ghost was lead away or was still lingering outside.

The wait was very torturing that they couldn't help but recall the scene of how the couple died along with the bloodstains that made people uncomfortable.

Ren Hui hugged her arms while squatting under the bed*, wanting to cry but dared not make a wee bit of sound, even the tears were desperately sucked in, for fear that the dripping tears would alert the cannibal evil spirit outside.

*it said wall

Luo Kong standing in the closet was already drenched with cold sweat, a variety of scenes constantly appeared in his mind, compared with Fang Jians struggling shouts, this kind of silence was the most terrible.

Not knowing whether Fang Jian-ge actually lead the female ghost away or was silently swallowed by the ghosts just like the couple. The more Luo Kong thought the more frightened he became, the legs uncontrollably trembled in place, the cabinet was very narrow that people could only stand, the door could easily be opened if the body moves just a bit more, making him not dare to even move.

He couldn't help but look to Gu Wu Ji for comfort, but nothing could be seen in the dark and can only hear the others gentle breathing.

Gu Wu Ji wasnt scared at all!

Even when his eyes looked at him, he still smiled a bit while comfortingly said: Its alright, we might not die even if found by the female ghost, perhaps with a bit of luck we can even be friends and give us a clue to survive.

This psycho, this reckless lunatic! Luo Kong regretted it at this moment, why he hid together with Gu Wu Ji, even encountering a ghost alone was still better than being with him!

At this time, unhurried footsteps sounded outside the bedrooms door.

The phrase became a prediction!

In the darkness everyones hearing became keener, no, the sounds werent only of footsteps but also a sound of an object being dragged.

What was the female ghost dragging?

Could it bea dead body?

Ren Hui who was closest to the bedroom door shrank even more under the bed and uncontrollably trembled, even if she wasnt a new sprout*, but it was only through luck she survived in the first world, she lacked even a bit of experience in confronting an enemy beyond knowing some common sense in this world of terror.

*meng xin: often used by females in the forum to indicate her newness

The next moment, the knocking stopped making everyone sigh in relief, but the sigh was yet to be completely released when the door made a ga zhi* sound as it was suddenly pushed open.

*sfx: creak, crunch

Faint light entered the room.

From Ren Huis view, one could clearly see a pair of inhuman feet, one foot appeared a bit normal, but the other was strangely twisted, just like being broken by someone, which made the female ghost produce a dragging sound while walking.

Ren Hui was so frightened that her mouth went wide open, but didnt dare to make any noise, she kept her drawn breath state, restraining the scream in her throat, tightly closing her eyes and not daring to look again.

Without knowing how long it took then heard the sound of female ghost's footstep leaving.

Inside the closet, they from the start used the closet door seams to observed the scenes outside. Gu Wu Ji clearly saw the deathly pale face of the female ghost with blood flowing from the cavity walking in the room.

Seeing the female ghost head more and more towards the bedside, as if looking for something, constantly rummaging the bed, that even had a tendency to stoop and search under the bed in the next moment

Luo Kong beside him even if somewhat sympathetic was certainly relieved, after all when a teammate dies it can give them a good chance of escape.

But not expecting, that the female ghost would suddenly stop, then as if detecting something, the head immediately made a sharp 180 turn, the pitch black empty eye socket directly stared at the two people peeking out the closet.

At that moment if Luo Kong hadn't tenaciously covered his mouth, perhaps his screams would have already been ringing.

Gu Wu Ji felt that this lady was very enthusiastic.

It doesnt matter, Im here now, let me help you find what you are looking for. Gu Wu Ji gently said, even looking back at the female ghost, without any fear or retreat in the eyes, the pair of beautiful dark eyes looked very sincere.

Making people think of the word gentleman.

Being a gentleman towards an ugly female ghost? It sounded very ridiculous.

The female ghost was silent, soon a very hoarse voice sounded in Gu Wu Ji's mind.

to the study.

Gu Wu Ji with the female ghost behind, headed towards the study, he had already memorized the houses layout before, the study wasnt far from the room.

Usually, going to this direction was very difficult, after all there would always be accidents along the way. But this time perhaps because of the female ghost behind Gu Wu Ji, they actually arrived to the study's door safe and sound.

Gu Wu Ji was keenly aware, that the study walls were extremely clean, entirely different from the walls before that were full of messy scrawls, like there was something inside, that made other people not dare to come over.

Gu Wu Ji pushed the studys door open, at the moment of entering, a gust of yin air suddenly blew to the door from outside the window making Gu Wu Ji suddenly feel his body lightening.

Did the female ghost leave?

He suspiciously looked for a while, but just wasn't able to see the female ghost existence anywhere.

Is she leaving just like this? I haven't helped her looked for anything yet, but coming here, its still better for me to have a look around first. Gu Wu Ji saying so, went towards the desk and immediately saw a dilapidated notebook above.

Without thinking, one can know that it would definitely have important information about this world. He immediately flipped it open then quickly browsed.

Recorded in this notebook was a type of sacrifice ceremony that sounded very cruel, it was about sacrificing someone with familial blood relations to the malicious spirit, to preserve a decade of riches and honor.

The more intimate the blood relation was, the more satisfied the malicious spirit would be, and would also reduce the other's chance of devouring the malicious spirit.

Gu Wu Ji immediately remembered the picture of the homeowner and his son in the hall, then recalling that the homeowner used to be the richest man in a city, looked somewhat cold.

The process of the sacrifice ceremony was also very cruel, in order to prevent the other from seeking revenge after death, first was to dig out the eyes of the person being sacrificed, even if a resentful spirit was born from this ceremony, it would still be completely blind.

Then the abdomen is opened, the internal organs must be taken out while the other was still alive, only the sacrifice's resentment and fear brought about by suffering was the best food for the malicious spirit.

But if this is so, how could the people in the room be silently killed."

Gu Wu Ji producing such a thought, soon saw writings left by the homeowner himself, the writings were very messy, but the meaning was very clear.

At that ceremony, the homeowner even invited four friends to share the wealth that could be obtained after the sacrifice. But an accident happened, as the youth being offered to the malicious spirit that should have directly died, because of a strong resentment was able to swallow the malicious spirit, becoming the new and frightening evil spirit, which made those who sacrificed him more impossible to escape, those people will surely be tortured and killed.

The other people in the process of escape, also broke the legs of an innocent maid in the villa leaving her behind, in an attempt to avoid the killer.

But everyone was unable to leave and all they could do was hide, but it was still useless, as one by one were caught, and killed in the cruelest way.

Only the homeowner survived the longest, hiding in the study as he claimed that it was his son's revenge, to let him spend his last moments in anxiousness and fear.

In the notes, his biggest doubt was, how his son after turning into an evil spirit was able to find their hiding places, after all, according to the ceremony, the other whos eyes were both gone, made it impossible to see them in anyway, but he actually felt something constantly watching him.

Even when they crossed all the eyes in the pictures, but it still didnt work in the end.

Gu Wu Ji soon flipped to the end of the notes, he noticed that what was written here seemed to be very important.

I finally know, how he was able to see me anywhere.

It was, with my own eyes--
