Chapter 38: Take a Step Back
But how could Su Bai let it succeed!
He immediately threw out the chain, dispersed all the resentment condensed into his hands, and followed a few steps forward, alerting to the things deep in the thick fog.
Perhaps because of fear, no new obstacles appeared for the time being, Qiu Tongyun walked out of the room unexpectedly.
"Bang!"
A loud sound.
The moment she walked out of the door, the door behind her closed forcefully, which scared her to shake.
I looked back at the closed door behind me, as if I had seen the appearance of hell, with a look of fear.
"I...I'm not dead?"
She touched her face and body in a daze, and a ecstasy of surviving the disaster surged into her heart, but what followed was still the fear from the bottom of her heart.
"Hide and seek... Yes, hide and seek... I want to hide it well... I must not let it find me again..."
She looked pale, cried and laughed, and ran downstairs.
The two nurses on duty were stunned when they saw her figure and rushed forward to stop her.
"You are not in good health yet. Why don't you rest in the ward and run out to do something if you're so late..."
...
Su Bai naturally didn't know what was going downstairs. He was now concentrating on dealing with this elusive baby ghost.
This thing is much harder than he thought.
When Qiu Tongyun left, the baby ghost was obviously in a state of madness. The resentment in the whole room was surging wildly, like a wave, slapped on him layer by layer, constantly eroding the golden light of merit on him.
Soon, even this layer of golden light dimmed slightly, and was suppressed to a very strong extent, and it might even be extinguished in no time!
Moreover, the sound of the baby crying is getting louder and louder, lingering in the ward, making people feel pain in their heads.
"You can't sit still and wait for death!"
He calmed down and listened carefully to the direction of the sounds coming from around him.
Suddenly, his eyes suddenly looked in one direction, and the soul-locking chain in his hand flew out.
"brush!"
The fog disappeared, and the phantom of a crawling baby in the corner of the ceiling was nailed to the ground by the soul-locking chain, wailing and struggling but unable to move.
But he was not very happy, because the next second the phantom gradually turned into a ball of white mist, blending into the surrounding environment, and it was difficult to distinguish.
"Fake……"
And this move seemed to break the final balance, and he soon noticed that the fog around him suddenly surged again.
From the dark corners everywhere, the shadows of babies slowly crawled out, and they crawled in his direction with extremely fast speed.
In just a blink of an eye, he actually crawled to his feet. The nearest baby ghost opened his black eyes and suddenly opened his mouth, revealing his sharp fangs inside, and bit his feet down!
"hiss!"
A stinging pain, Su Bai kicked it directly, but the baby ghost flew backwards in an instant, but turned into white mist in the air and merged into the surroundings.
He looked down at his feet. Of course, his shoes were also Yinguan's official uniforms and certainly they would not be bitten easily, but the damage seemed to directly affect his soul, making him feel that half of his feet seemed to be gnawed down.
"The position from the lower leg has begun to gradually lose consciousness..."
"Is this...resentment?!"
His heart tightened.
But the most terrifying thing is that there are countless phantoms of baby ghosts rushing towards him.
That crazy and greedy look, as if he was going to share him with food alive!
"Where does this thing have such a weird power?"
Su Bai felt creepy in an instant and did not dare to be careless.
First, he used chains to break up the nearest group of baby ghosts, and then he looked up and saw a steady stream of black shadows crawling over under the bed, under the table, on the ceiling, in the corners of the wall, making him feel powerless.
Even he, a ghost messenger, isn’t he going to do anything, so if an ordinary person meets him, he has to wait for a way to die?
No wonder Qiu Tongyun was frightened directly.
He slapped a little ghost flying over again and looked at the door behind him.
"It seems that I can only take a step back for now."
This thing is too tricky and can't be solved with his current strength for the time being.
"But it must be ensured that it will continue to stay in this ward and cannot run out, otherwise it will be difficult to find in the future. It must be ensured that others will not mistakenly enter this ward..."
He quickly came up with an idea, stepped back, walked through the door and went directly outside the house. At the same time, the chains in his hand flew out and quickly extended them, and sealed the door and windows of the room with chains.
Before there is a better solution, this is the only way to do it for the time being.
The baby's harsh cry came faintly inside the door, full of resentment and malice.
The closed door was also shaking "bang bang", as if something inside was hitting the door panel desperately.
With every sound, the lights in the corridor also flashed dimly, as if the line contact was poor, strange and gloomy.
But fortunately, under the reinforcement of the chain, there has never been a tendency to be broken.
Instead, it gradually became quiet inside, and the lights in the corridor finally returned to normal.
Su Bai breathed a little relieved.
He also thought about whether he would just do it and spend 500 yuan on merit to ask the golden armored god on the mural of the underworld to take action, but not to mention the balance between merit and punishment, this is also a test for himself.
"You can't rely too much on those external forces. Otherwise, if you encounter any powerful ghost in the future, you have to ask the gods to take action. What's the difference between this Yin official and a disguise..."
"We need to think of a better way to solve it."
It's just not today.
"If you still cannot find a solution after a period of time, it will not be too late to ask the gods to take action."
He looked at the door that was as quiet as usual, and turned around and looked in other directions.
Before leaving, he has to arrange the rest.
Otherwise, if someone enters and exits the room at will, although the soul-locking chain will not be touched by mortals, it will definitely not work if they feed the resentful ghosts for free.
He quickly turned his eyes to the surrounding wards and the female nurse who fainted before.
"If it's a dream..."
He pondered for a moment.
"Anyway... let's give these people a dream of revelation first."
He held an oil-paper umbrella and walked slowly on the corridor. Whenever he took a step forward, the light on his head would suddenly flash, and after he walked away, he slowly returned to normal.
Soon, his illusory black robe disappeared at the end of the corridor, blending with the darkness and the walls.
But the patients living in the wards he passed by just now, all those who were already asleep showed a strange look on the ground, a little awe and a little fear...
