Chapter 671 - 671 Baby Ghost
671 Baby Ghost
The sky was dimming bit by bit.
The black curtain slowly spread out in the sky, and only the western corner had a hint of afterglow.
“Hiss.”
After Lu Benwei and the others climbed over the blue iron fence, everyone had goosebumps on their bodies.
“It’s chilly.” Wang Shuai complained.
It was summer all year round in Hai Province, and the temperature was maintained above 20 degrees Celsius all year round. It was now early summer, and it was often 30 degrees Celsius.
Even if it had heavily rained a few days ago, the temperature here would not be so low.
Lu Benwei conservatively estimated that the temperature here was only about 20 degrees Celsius.
“That shouldn’t be the case.” Lu Benwei slowly exhaled.
“Can you tell anything?” Chu Yan whispered at the side.
“I can’t tell. It looks like an ordinary unfinished building,” Lu Benwei said while shaking his head.
He did not believe in supernatural powers, but if there was a ghost here, Lu Benwei chose to believe that there was a high probability that an ice-type ferocious monster was causing trouble.
The boys went forward to coax them, while the girls followed behind them, chattering. They were excited and scared. They would scream if they accidentally stepped on a can.
“What? I can’t see a soul.”
Wang Shuai panted heavily and complained.
Although it was called the Little Red Chamber, it was still 14 stories tall. They called it the Little Red Chamber just to make it sound scary. They had already cleared the tenth level, and each of them was so tired that they were panting.
“If you have a soul, I’m afraid you’ll be scared out of your wits.” Liu Jingjing teased.
Li Yiran chuckled. “In my opinion, let’s leave after sweeping the roof. This place isn’t that mysterious.”
“That might not be the case..” one of his companions suddenly said with a trembling voice. His forehead was covered in a cold sweat.
“What’s wrong?” Li Yiran asked loudly.
“Did you guys see Lu Hongyi and Chu Jiayue?”
When Li Yiran and the others heard this, they were instantly frightened and trembled. They looked around, but Lu Benwei and Chu Yan were nowhere to be seen.
“Hongyi, come out quickly. Don’t scare me!” Wang Shuai cursed, his legs trembling.
“Jiayue, where are you? Come out, this joke is not funny!” Liu Jingjing shouted.
On the other side, Lu Benwei slowly walked down the stairs. Chu Yan followed closely behind him.
“It seems like that’s the case.” historical
Lu Benwei slowly exhaled and said helplessly, “We entered the secret realm and encountered this legendary ghost wall.”
Chu Yan nodded. Through a mirror, she saw the anxious Wang Shuai and the others.
“Looks like this secret realm was created by humans and set up certain rules. Children like them can’t enter.”
Lu Benwei pondered for a moment.
“Boring! Come out, let’s decide the winner with our fists!” Lu Benwei suddenly shouted.
His voice traveled thousands of miles, causing a ripple to appear in the air.
Lu Benwei’s lips curled up. The other party had appeared!
It was the size of a human infant, but its skin was a strange blue. Its eyes were as red as blood, causing Lu Benwei and Chu Yan’s hair to stand on end!
“Baby Ghost?” Chu Yan said in shock.
“What’s a Baby Ghost?” Lu Benwei asked.
“Legend has it that the Baby Ghost was formed when its mother died tragically when it was still a fetus. It inherited a portion of its parents’ power, but its mind is still that of an infant. Once it appears, it will cause damage to the surroundings!”
Lu Benwei was stunned. Presumably, the sudden death of the construction workers was not a coincidence, but the Baby Ghost’s doing.
“It seems that its intelligence is beyond that of an ordinary Baby Ghost. One of its parents must be very powerful!” Lu Benwei guessed.
“I think you guessed it right. It seems that those rumors are mostly true. Many people died tragically at its hands.”
“Since that’s the case, I’ll send you over!” Lu Benwei shouted and swung his fists to attack.
Then, the Baby Ghost hid in a mirror.
In reality, Wang Shuai, Liu Jingjing, Li Yiran, and the others searched for Lu Benwei and Lu Hongyi. They had already patrolled the area from top to bottom, but they did not see a single person.
“How was it? Did you find them?”
The few of them looked anxious and exhausted.
“Could it be that they left early?” A girl guessed.
“No, that’s impossible. How could they do such a ridiculous thing?” Wang Shuai denied it outright.
Their expressions were solemn, and their eyes revealed fear. There was another possibility that they had all guessed but did not dare to say.
“Could it be..” In the end, it was Wang Shuai who could not bear it anymore.
“Shut up, how can there be such a mysterious thing!” Liu Jingjing shouted, but her body was trembling.
“Why don’t we go up from the first floor together? If there’s nothing, we’ll leave this place.” Li Yiran suggested.
Everyone felt that it was not a bad idea, so they started searching from the first floor. The first level was empty. They did not even find Lu Benwei and Chu Yan’s hair.
The second level was the same. The third level..
When he reached the seventh floor, he saw a child squatting in the corner and eating a lollipop!
“Little brother, why are you here alone?”
Liu Jingjing’s little heart instantly trembled. Just as she finished speaking, she realized that something was wrong. How could a child appear in such a place?
“Sister, let’s play!” The child raised his head and licked the lollipop, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth. The whites of his eyes seemed to be stained with red ink.
Liu Jingjing was so scared that her face turned pale. She was about to lose her soul!
“Ah!”
The ear-piercing shrieks resounded through the clouds. Wang Shuai, Li Yiran, and the others rushed over upon hearing the sound. They only saw Liu Jingjing squatting on the ground and did not know what was going on.
“Jingjing, what’s wrong?” Wang Shuai’s concern was chaotic, and his hands kept shaking her arm.
“Child.. There’s a child!” Liu Jingjing pointed in front of her and said with a trembling voice.
Wang Shuai was shocked and swallowed his saliva. “Where’s the child?”
As he spoke, he quickly turned his head and looked behind him. There was no one behind him, only abandoned iron frames and wooden planks.
“Where’s the child?”
Wang Shuai let out a long breath and slowly turned around.
“Brother, don’t you think I’m just a child?”
By the time he returned to his senses, Liu Jingjing had been replaced by the Baby Ghost.
It was about the size of a human infant, but its skin was a strange blue, and its eyes were as red as blood!
Anyone who saw such a terrifying creature could not help but feel their scalps go numb.
