Chapter 26 The street lights are on

  arrogant, apart from these two words, Qu Nianqing can't find any other adjectives to describe Yu Xing's current state.

Have you ever seen a gamer show off to a ghost NPC in a game dungeon what he has snatched from the other party?

Well, Qu Nianqing has seen it before, and she has done this kind of thing herself.

 But why is this "hehe" so bad when it comes out of Yu Xing's mouth?

The Croun clown doll, which was only half the height of a human being, recovered from his rage. He looked coldly at the three people leaving his shop. The emotion in his glass eyes was not only anger, but also resentment.

After all, it can't live without its own building, and the three outsiders have already gone out. There is no way to reverse the outcome. If it were in the store, it could seize the weapon because of their violation, but they seem to

As agreed, this weapon was given away first.

 Heh, this is probably the tacit understanding of cunning people.

"my money……"

"You will pay the price for all this." Crown said, "There are many, many things on this island that you cannot afford to offend. I hope you will not die too miserably by then."

 After saying that, it seemed to be out of sight, slamming the door hard, and the door made a loud bang. This was the loudest sound Yu Xing had heard since he came to the island city.

Zhao Yijiu vaguely felt that the surrounding air was mixed with some different smells. He reminded: "It seems that a ghost has heard the sound, so hide away first."

"Hmm." Yu Xing smiled carelessly, "The revenge is quite strong. Tsk, let's go hide in that alley."

He pointed casually to a small alley next to the grocery store. Zhao Yijiu squinted his eyes. He didn't know if it was a coincidence. The road Yu Xing pointed to happened to be the one with the least weird smell, which meant that even if there was something inside,

The ghosts won't be very powerful either, so this is the best choice for them.

Qu Xianqing had no objections. The three of them stepped lightly and quickly moved towards the alley. There was a streetlight at the entrance of the alley. It was not turned on yet. It looked like a slender ghost bent over in the gray air.

Still standing there silently.

Yu Xing took another look at the street lamp. The carvings on the street lamp pole were very ornate and exquisite, and the top bulb was embedded in a semicircular cover in the shape of a flower carving.

 I only glanced at them briefly, then came to the alley and stood close to the wall, first assessing the safety factor in the alley.

This is probably an alley in a slum. All kinds of dust fill the air. The reddish-brown brick wall is dented from time to time, as if something has dug it off after drying, revealing the moldy germs inside. Spider webs are everywhere.

Yes, it was knotted in the middle of the old wooden boards standing against the wall. Next to them, there were two trash cans and several bags of garbage outside the trash cans. There was a rotten smell inside.

The only advantage of the Dead Island is probably that there are no flies and bugs flying around the garbage and making unnecessary noise.

The alley is not long, and you can see the end at a glance. At the end is a wall about two meters high, blocking their way.

In the middle section of the alley, there are several rickety wooden doors, indicating that someone used to live here.

The source of the bloody smell coming from the alley was one of the doors. Zhao Yijiu looked over there cautiously and saw no sign that anything was coming out.

He turned around and wanted to ask if he should enter those doors to take a look. In fact, not every room that can be entered has an independent copy. It must be an independent building. Like some residential buildings, there is no such restriction.

They can just enter the ordinary space as usual, and it provides a large number of places for these deducers to hide and rest temporarily.

  ——Of course, since there are no copies and no rules, there may also be scattered ghosts, that is, pollutants hidden in these spaces.

But when he saw Yu Xing put the banknotes in his trousers pocket, causing a bulge on the side of his trousers, he seemed a little bit unbearable to look at it, and muttered: "When we return to the hotel, let Daisy's daughter change into a ghost for us."

Okay, what are you talking about?"

Qu Nianqing glanced at the bulge and chuckled: "You can also stuff it in your breast pocket..."

   Yu Xing: “That’s even more outrageous.”

"You remind me that when I was little, I would fall asleep in your room when I was tired from training, and when I woke up in the morning..." Qu Xianqing recalled, in fact, the bulge caused by these banknotes was not that big, and the location was not that big.

It was quite far behind, but she just wanted to tease Yu Xing with it. After all, this was Yu Xing's rare shame.

 Zhao Yijiu squinted his ears and eavesdropped.

 Yu Xing: "...Shh, don't talk, something is coming."

On the desolate street outside, a black spot appeared from far to near. It was something slowly walking from the end of the road outside their field of vision on the other side. Since the verb "walk" is used, it means that this thing is still

There was a person, a stooped humanoid species, who looked like a woman, wearing a tattered black dress, with her hair covered in front and hanging down to the ground.

Since her sleeves were also torn, her pale arms were exposed, with bloodshot veins and veins popping out on her skin. In the middle of her palm at the bottom, she held a huge axe.

"It's this kind of female ghost holding an ax again. Is this popular?" The female ghost was still far away. She was probably attracted by the loud sound of Croun's door closing. Yu Xing's soft murmur did not bother her.

If there was any change in the female ghost, he would guess that the female ghost could not hear such low-decibel sounds.

As for popularity, it’s not because in the exam at Xuechi Middle School, the female ghost in the game console also wielded an ax to conquer the world. The only difference was that the one was wearing white clothes, and this one was wearing black clothes, and she was naked.

From the appearance, this black-clothed axe-headed female ghost is obviously more violent, like some kind of beast with suppressed killing instinct.

When she slowly approached from a distance, her slender legs seemed unable to support the weight of her whole body, and she staggered with every step, like a zombie.

"She is very dangerous, with a D-level base, maybe a C." Zhao Yijiu stared at the axe-wielding ghost with cold eyes, and then landed on the axe, "That is also a 'weapon'."

“Oh? Then my dear combat evaluator, do you think we can go head-to-head with that female ghost at this time?” Yu Xing tilted his head.

“You can’t, you will die.” Zhao Yijiu added, “Under normal conditions.”

 That is to say, he does not use the power of the ghost, Qu Nianqing only relies on the strength of his body, and Yu Xing does not use the sinister and majestic power in his body.

 They will definitely die under these circumstances. For Zhao Yijiu to say this kind of evaluation with such certainty is enough to prove that the axe-headed female ghost is a formidable enemy at this stage.

“Then let’s avoid it.” Qu Nianqing shook the stick in his hand, “After this female ghost leaves, shall we continue moving forward?”

Unexpectedly, Yu Xing gave an order that she didn't expect: "Brother Jiu and I will continue to move forward, and you go back."

 “Huh?” Qu Nianqing and Zhao Yijiu were both a little surprised.

"Take this stick back and let Zhao Mou study it. By the way, buy a pair of gloves from the hotel. Even if your body can't feel the resentment in the stick, it will inevitably penetrate directly into the soul level over time. It's just one more

I can't let you take this risk that can be avoided with just a few steps." Yu Xing said, "You will also take back the money on me and the teeth that appeared from the corpses of the two female guests later. You can use the money for shopping.

Keep the tooth, don't give it to Daisy."

 It was reasonable and convincing, but the tail of Zhao Yijiu's eyebrows twitched slightly, and there was a trace of understanding in his eyes.

“Hmm.” Qu Nianqing nodded.

At present, it seems that since she will not be immediately affected by the resentment in the stick, this weapon is given to Qu Nianqing by default. It would be best for her to take it back and give it to Zhao Mou for research. Originally, they had come into contact with people outside the city like this.

The ghosts, whether they are pollutants or plagues, are not particularly threatening. They are still within the control range. The combat effectiveness of Shaoqu Nianqing is not a big problem.

Teeth will also be brought back by Qu Nianqing. In addition to Zhao Mou, Wen Qinghuai in the team should also have a desire to study this kind of thing. After all, this material can be used as a "weapon".

It is a good way to survive for them to hunt pollutants and bring the corpse materials back to exchange for money. However, under the same conditions, it is of course better to use banknotes directly to buy things. These materials may be useful at some time and can be exchanged for ordinary

Materials are too wasteful.

During the exchange, the female ghost holding an ax came closer and closer. When she got within a certain range, the three of them tacitly shut their mouths and even breathed softly.

 This is what they all felt in unison, the distance at which the female ghost can hear the sound.

Yu Xing poked half of his head out and tried his best to use the angle difference to observe the movements of the female ghost. He found that although the female ghost was attracted here by the sound, she was not sure where the specific source of the sound was. She passed by quickly.

Grocery store, she did not ignore this kind of closed independent building, but she was not very interested in it.

When the female ghost stands there, her body will twitch for some inexplicable reason, and her black hair will twitch slightly with the twitching, like a broken clockwork doll. This kind of uninterrupted body twitching,

It always scares visual humans.

At this moment, the female ghost stood there and stopped facing the street light outside their alley, as if she was thinking about something.

Yu Xing had already moved his extended head back, otherwise he would have been discovered.

He had a hunch that this female ghost would definitely want to come to the alley to take a look, because when she passed other places just now, the female ghost would hesitate for a moment, and then walk away as if she smelled the same kind of scent.

No one can guarantee that in the perception of these ghosts, outsiders will also have a unique smell, leading them to discover these living prey.

Yu Xing made a mouth gesture: "Back up, avoid."

The three of them walked back quietly. There were several abandoned houses in the alley that could be used to hide. The reason why they were determined to be abandoned was because the doors of these houses were almost useless, and the insides were dark and smelled of mold.

It looked like no one was living there.

 The female ghost is indeed coming this way.

As they got closer, they could hear the sound of the female ghost's ax scraping on the ground. Sometimes this behavior was not because it really couldn't be lifted, but to create a psychological shock to the prey.

I don’t know what the intelligence of this female ghost is. It seems that it is definitely not as good as the last female customer in Croun’s shop. But in terms of ferocity, this is definitely the best since she came to the island, except for the giant face in the sea.

Besides, it is the most oppressive ghost creature.

 The female ghost walked to the entrance of the alley.

She stood next to the street lamp. Suddenly, the extinguished street lamp at the entrance of the alley made two hissing sounds and then turned on.

The dim yellow light was not obvious under the relatively bright gray clouds, but the female ghost suddenly let out a low laugh from her throat.

 “I found you...”

She walked into the alley without hesitation, raised her ax in front of the first abandoned house with a door, and chopped down violently, knocking down the already precarious door. The dust inside was rolled into the air, beating

It spun and jumped out.

The female ghost stretched her neck to look inside, and the head with thick black hair stretched forward half a meter. Her head looked around the neighbors and then retracted.

 “Not here…”

The female ghost's throat seemed to have been scratched by glass. Every sound sounded painful. To put it bluntly, it was too unpleasant. She seemed to be sure that her prey was nearby, so she used such sounds without hesitation to try to aggravate the prey.

After all, what many ghosts want to eat is not people, but the fear generated in human souls.

She smashed several doors along the way, then stuck her head in to look, and then moved on to the next one. Finally, there were only two doors left in front, one of which was where Zhao Yijiu felt the faint smell of blood.

The female ghost stood in front of this door, and the ax in her hand no longer struck down without hesitation, but she only delayed for two or three seconds before raising the ax again.

 The wooden door made a soft sound and opened a crack.

A blood-red eye leaked out from the crack in the door, staring at the female ghost outside the door with red bloodshot eyes.

"leave……"

The ghost inside made a deep male voice. If you hadn't looked at the eyes, you might have thought it was some professional online dating partner with a male voice.

However, the female ghost did not need an online dating partner. Her ax struck down, causing the door and the ghost behind the door to scream in pain.

The door was split open, and the ghost inside was nowhere to be seen. It was a curled up deformed monster. The blood-red eye was just one of its many eyes. On his head, back, and arms,

They all have eyes like this.

The female ghost let out an excited laugh. Even though the human prey behind the door was not the one she wanted, she still picked up her ax and chopped the seemingly undeterrent ghost into a pulp.

 After a while, there was only a black mark left in this abandoned dwelling. A blood-red eyeball was picked up from the ground by the female ghost. She looked at it and put it into her tattered pocket.

What she didn't realize was that three red eyes had appeared on her white ankles in a short period of time.

 She came to the last door with the joy of a victor.

 The street lights are on, which means there is something she wants to kill.

So, this door is the last hiding place for those weak things.

She licked her lips, and the tongue coating full of spikes scratched across her face. Maybe she knew that her prey had nowhere to escape, so she did not use the ax this time, but stretched out her hand to push the door open.

The old wooden door made an overwhelming sharp noise, and the female ghost stretched her neck and looked inside.

 “I found you...”
