Nightmare Attack

"Oh no!" Jiang Cheng realized that he and Ye Qiutang were in big trouble. These ghosts had already set a trap and were waiting for them.

The fat man also became nervous. He looked desperately towards where Jiangcheng Ye Qiutang was looking, "What happened? What did you see?"

"Didn't you see it?" Ye Qiutang said hoarsely, as if he was worried about being heard by something, "There are footprints there, a pair of footprints that suddenly appeared!"

"Footprints" Fatty looked more carefully and even took two steps forward, "Where are the footprints?"

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng seemed to realize something. He knew that Fatty's eyesight was very good, and the location of the footprints was also obvious. There was no reason why Fatty couldn't see it, unless there was something restricting him.

Jiang Cheng boldly took two steps forward, pointed to the footprints not far away, and asked the fat man: "Look at what's here?"

The fat man also realized something was wrong and swallowed hard, "I didn't see anything. There was just a piece of mud."

Nodding, Jiang Cheng's guess was confirmed. Fatty was different from him and Ye Qiutang. Fatty couldn't see any footprints, which also proved that he had not been tricked.

According to rumors, people who are not tricked will not be taken away by the girl with the ponytail. Just like Xiaomei's friend who is across the street, that person is not dead because all she saw and photographed was the back of the girl with the ponytail.

Ye Qiutang reacted quickly. Based on the story told by Jiang Cheng, she also realized what the problem was. She looked at the fat man with envious eyes. She remembered what Mr. Song Tianming said. This Wang Fugui has an excellent destiny. , turn bad luck into good luck, and turn disaster into good luck.

They knew that they were the only ones who didn't fall for the trick, but there was no joy on Fatty's face. They had been careful about the murderous moves in the Precepts Holding Temple, but they didn't expect to be tricked.

Soon, they found another abnormality behind Ye Qiutang. This time it was not footprints, because the position behind her was a big willow tree.

The branches of the willow tree are hanging down, like a curtain of rain, which is really beautiful, but now Jiangcheng Ye Qiutang's face has turned ugly, because there are two weird places among the hanging willow branches. There is obviously nothing there, but the willow branches are in mid-air. The middle was bent strangely, as if it had been swung open by something invisible.

What's even more frightening is that after looking at the two blank spaces for a long time, they look more and more like two human figures.

"Fat man, look at that willow tree. Is there anything strange inside the willow tree?" Jiang Cheng lowered his voice and asked, staring at the blank space under the willow tree.

"No." Fatty replied firmly after observing for a while.

The person involved, Ye Qiutang, was obviously a little excited, because there were actually two people following her, which also corresponded to the two Taoist priests who disappeared in the merit hall. This depressed feeling made people desperate.

She looked at the fat man fiercely, with a rare pleading tone in her tone, "You go over and try to see if you can affect them. You haven't been hit, so you won't be in danger."

"do not go!"

Before Fatty could answer the proposal, Jiang Cheng rejected it. Ye Qiutang's idea was right, but he didn't want Fatty to take risks.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Cheng picked up a few stones from the ground and handed them to the fat man, "Throw the willow tree with stones. Don't hit the trunk. Hit the left side of the willow tree, about 3 meters away."

A few stones passed through the blank figure under the willow tree without any hindrance. The fat man turned his head, and nothing happened from his perspective.

But after Ye Qiutang threw the stone, the situation was completely different. The stone hit the empty space of the human figure and bounced away strangely.

Ye Qiutang looked at the fat man excitedly, "Did you see it? There is really something there!"

But the fat man acted even weirder than her. He looked at Ye Qiutang with a confused look on his face, "What on earth are you talking about?"

"Didn't you see? The stone bounced off the empty space and bounced back!"

"Ah?" The fat man opened his eyes wide, "No, the stone passed directly through the willow tree just now. I saw it clearly and landed on the ground."

Things changed again at this moment. Fatty's perception was different from theirs. Jiang Cheng thought of the scene that happened near the Sutra Pavilion in the evening. The identities of Taoist priest and monk were switched back and forth. There were similarities between the two.

Jiang Cheng thought for a moment, then picked up a stone and threw it at the human figure under the willow tree. The stone also bounced away. It seemed that the ghost following Ye Qiutang could also affect him.

If something that can be touched bounces away, then it means that these ghosts can be touched. To put it more bluntly, these ghosts can kill people directly.

The top priority now is how to get rid of these ghosts.

Jiang Cheng withdrew his gaze and looked at the footprints behind him again. He faced the direction of the footprints and slowly backed away, retreating several meters in a row. The footprints did not move at all.

"There is a door!"

Jiang Cheng suddenly thought of the sculpture ghost he had encountered before. As long as it was stared at all the time, the thing could not move, let alone kill people.

Jiang Cheng continued to retreat. He had roughly figured out the surrounding terrain before, so as long as he retreated carefully, there would be no problem.

He motioned to the fat man Ye Qiutang to follow him, and just like that, the three of them retreated 20 meters. Then Jiang Cheng moved in parallel, his eyes still fixed on the position of the footprints, until his line of sight was blocked by a wall.

Yes, this is Jiang Cheng's plan, he wants to get rid of it in this way.

Jiang Cheng still faced the wall and took a deep breath, "Miss Ye, do you think there is something following me?"

Perhaps it was because it had rained not long ago. There were either shallow puddles or wet mud behind Jiang Cheng, which was easy to observe.

After a while, Ye Qiutang's surprised voice rang out, "No more! The footprints are gone!"

"call--"

Jiang Cheng let out a long sigh of relief. To be honest, he didn't have high expectations for being able to escape the pursuit so easily. At best, he just gave it a try, but he didn't expect it to happen.

Jiang Cheng turned around and walked quickly towards the courtyard door, "Quick, let's get out of here first. Miss Ye, don't worry, I'll help you when we get out."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a rapid cry, which was Ye Qiutang's voice.

Jiang Cheng suddenly turned around and saw Ye Qiutang's eyes wide open with panic on his face, and she was staring behind him.

As Jiang Cheng looked back again, a pair of footprints were left in the puddle.

What's even more frightening is that this time the footprints are no longer motionless, but the toes are pointed at Jiang Cheng, and the right foot steps out, the movement is stiff, but it takes a straight step towards Jiang Cheng.

The three of them were shocked when they saw this scene. They didn't react for a while. But a few seconds later, the suffocating scene was staged again. They also took a trembling left foot and took another step forward, getting closer to Jiangcheng. .
