Ch 2 - A crowd of evil spirit lines up to confess to me

Chapter 2

Gu Wu Ji actually became quite interested on the other side, looking a bit more, he then found something was a bit amiss.

Due to his physique, Gu Wu Ji didn’t have normal friends…… Instead it's better to say that he was used to playing with some supernatural existence or something, letting him have a supernatural understanding that made him different from the ordinary people.

“Those ghosts……seems to……” have no eyes?

Truly very distressing, even if they’re already dead, but lacking eyes was still very difficult. Gu Wu Ji couldn’t help but be a bit sympathetic.

But at this time, the voice of the elite man at the side suddenly sounded, “What are you still looking at, let’s leave quickly, don’t wait for those things to come over! Even if they’re the most common and lack a sense of existence like zombies, but there’s still too much for us to deal with.”

“Oh, okay.” Gu Wu Ji immediately nodded and quickly stepped forward moving to the other side.

In short, no one dared to stay and wait outside, quickly passing through the cold and gloomy lawn, and finally arrived outside the villa, but not yet entering, the female counterpart of the lovers had already shrieked.

“What happened?!” Everyone became very frightened.

“T-There’s a ghost upstairs……”

Looking up, their bodies immediately stiffened. In the second floor’s shabby window, even with the fog and shabby curtains blocking most of their sights, they nevertheless were able to see a faint figure standing alone, that deathly pale face looked particularly unsightly.

Although not very clear, but they were able to feel the gloomy and cold eyesight on them, filled with maliciousness, making them not dare to even move.

At this time, Gu Wu Ji's body on one side slightly moved, everyone became somewhat surprised, the elite man hadn't expected that this newcomer was still able to move in this situation as a bit of vigilance passed his eyes.

Gu Wu Ji looked serious, he with his keen perception had already noticed that this strange ghost-- is a ghost wearing female clothes.

Under this circumstances, being tightly stared at by a girl yet not doing anything will always make him feel very ashamed, ah!

The next moment, the others saw Gu Wu Ji extending his hand not holding the soy sauce bottle and gave a greeting towards the window.

Everyone: “……”

Everyone: “???”

At this brief moment, they wanted to seize Gu Wu Ji's collar and ask him what he was actually thinking!

Regarding this action, the ghost in the window also seemed to have been startled, soon the body gradually vanished amidst the darkness, disappearing without a trace, leaving an absurd feeling of running away.

"What are you doing?!" The youth, Luo Kong who was already the elite man's fanboy immediately looked at Gu Wu Ji discontentedly, “If your strange actions angered the evil spirit, what could have been done had the situation changed! Newcomers should just honestly follow Fang-ge*, don’t mess things up.”

*brother

“What are you saying?” Gu Wu Ji looked at Luo Kong, contrary to expectations he even looked somewhat angry as he said: “The other girl was enthusiastically looking over, it would be very rude not to make even a bit of response!”

Gu Wu Ji's sight at this time had a very oppressive force, Luo Kong who was originally a senior high student without social experience, couldn’t help but freeze at this time.

This guy clearly just made a strange action, how can he say it so righteously and self-confidently, but that is just a ghost over there ah! But Gu Wu Ji with this righteous and self-confident look actually made him not know how to retort!

The elite man at the side immediately smoothed things over by saying: “Gu xiansheng* has his own consideration, even if I’m a veteran, there are only some basic experiences, other things will still need to be explored together.”

*mister, sir

“Correct.” Gu Wu Ji nodded, feeling that the elite man's words were very reasonable.

“But Gu xiansheng, before doing things in the future, you must first say so.” Fang Jian looked at Gu Wu Ji again and also patted his shoulder nonchalantly, “To avoid frightening everyone.”

After going through such a thing, the previous frightful mood seemed to somewhat dissipate, everyone pushed forward to enter the villa’s door.

The door appeared very shabby and was easily pushed open. Everyone hurried into the dark room, suddenly feeling a burst of coldness passing through and uncontrollably trembled.

“How can it be so cold here.” the professional woman Ren Hui couldn’t help but say, “……is it because of the heavy yin energy?”

She seemed to casually say, but everyone was already easily frightened, hearing her words evoked the mind's mental association, looking at the dark hall where one can't even see their outstretched fingers, have already frightened them very much.

“Fortunately the cellphones can still be used.”

After switching on the flashlight’s cellphone, everyone read and understood the place’s layout. This hall was clearly the receiving area for the guests, the space was quite wide, with a door leading inside, but firmly closed, in addition both sides had stairs leading to the second floor.

Moreover, there were some charms attached everywhere, but not knowing whether it was affected by time or something else, it was already very broken, it will directly turn to ash when touched.

The pictures hanging on the living room wall was very conspicuous, on top seemed to be the owner and his son, but the picture seemed to have a large amount of brown stains, not only were both their appearance completely obscured but the somewhat covered places made people uneasy, just like blood splashes on their body.

The most frightening was, even if it’s already like this, everyone can still basically feel the sight of the picture closely watching them.

“It looks very dangerous ah, must we go in……” the female counterpart of the lovers asked with fear and trepidation, a great sense of resistance emerged from her heart.

“Definitely.” Fang Jian opened: “We can only follow the system's main line task, moreover, doing the main line task is the only way for us to leave here alive…… Although it hasn’t been specifically said, but the ghosts in the copy seems to get stronger with the passage of time, as if some kind of restraint has been gradually loosened, if it’s not done as soon as possible, we will all die here!”

"But the system provided a lot of information this time, our chances of survival should be greater than before.” Fang Jian said, “Maybe this benefit is because there’s a lot of newcomers. We must simultaneously check all areas, for this case let’s split into two groups.”

The couple could only nod, comforting each other while going forward to check, trying their best to ignore the picture in the center.

Luo Kong as well closely followed Fang Jian at the side, seemingly unafraid, enthusiastically searching for clues to prove his worth.

Seeing this, Ren Hui can only follow Gu Wu Ji, and started talking with Gu Wu Ji. In fact, she still had a good impression on Gu Wu Ji, after all the other still had an outstanding face, just a bit odd in other aspects, but still looked reliable.

Fang Jian looking at the ignorant people, sneered in his heart, but still had a reliable elder look on the surface, the introduction he gave to everyone were half true half false.

In reality, he was truly a very skilled player having experienced several copies, and even a senior member of a secret organization. There are various means in knowing a copy's information and framework, which made him completely different from these ignorant newcomers.

This time, he even took the initiative to select this copy, after all this copy was mentioned to be not difficult, only needs a sacrifice of 4 people to be able to leave. And so, after killing 4 people this copy’s evil spirit will be temporarily satisfied, at this time there will be a chance to plead to the evil spirit, so that the other can grant a request.

But this copy should only have 5 people, it wasn’t known where this extra, Gu Wu Ji actually came from, and he constantly made Fang Jian feel very annoyed…… But this problem will soon be over.

He just left a little thing on that guy's body that attracts the spirit of the dead, he’s just a newcomer anyway, in this copy it’s expected to die right away after meeting a ghost.

……

Gu Wu Ji went to the side to search and soon came to the corridor’s edge. Ren Hui at the back using a flashlight was startled to see the hall scattered with bloodstains that made her face become extremely tense.

These bloodstains were too much like someone struggling to crawl out from the corridor's depths, making her think that later she must also not become like that…… Moreover, that thing that crawled out, whether it was dead or changed into something else……

“W-we should quickly head back.” Ren Hui anxiously opened, "Let’s wait for more people before coming back here to search……”

“I don't think we'll be able to get back for a while.” Gu Wu Ji stated.

Ren Hui looked back to discover, that not bit of light flashed behind them. The others exploring elsewhere seemed to not exist.

Her face greatly changed knowing that this was a troublesome thing and uncontrollably moved closer to Gu Wu Ji, who knew that a ghost would suddenly appear, just as she turned her head, her face immediately became frightened, “B-behind you--”

Gu Wu Ji turned his head and unexpectedly saw a dark twisted hand extending from the seams of the corridor’s door, that continued to stretch, as if that thing was forcibly squeezing it's way through the corridor to come over.

Gu Wu Ji was almost within the dark hand’s reach.

Ren Hui had already become pale, she would have already ran if she hadn’t been frightened enough for her legs to weaken. After all, in this current situation Gu Wu Ji is certain to die!

Then she saw Gu Wu Ji reach out to hold the hand.

He felt like he did a very reasonable thing and acted like a professional actor. Even if he was already muddled.

Ren Hui: ??? What are you doing, ah!

The hand’s movement actually stopped, maybe since becoming a ghost it's the first time it encountered a person acting like this, the next moment as if realizing that it's behavior doesn’t match with it's identity, those distorted limbs squeezing through suddenly became even more threatening, a deathly pale and hollow face appeared in front the two.

Ren Hui who was halfway roasting* Gu Wu Ji encountered this kind of thing, suddenly recalled that she was still in this supernatural copy, almost became scared enough to faint.

*verbally mock or shut someone down

Looking at the sinister face in front, Gu Wu Ji with a bit of doubt, considerately said: “It's been hard, if possible you don't need to twist like this to shake hands the next time, your face became very unsightly……”
