Chapter 0318 – Weird Things Happen One After Another
With his fingertips pressed on the repeater, Chen Ge bent down slightly, his whole body muscles tensed as if it was a fully drawn bow.
The encounter with the Red Clothes of the Weird Talk Association in the Fang Hua Yuan neighborhood was still fresh in his mind; on that day, he had summoned both Pen Fairy and Xu Yin at the same time, but only managed to block the Red Clothes for less than ten seconds.
This was the second time he faced Red Clothes without Zhang Ya, and unlike in Fang Hua Yuan, this time he had brought out all the ghosts and monsters from the haunted house, pouring out a well-prepared army.
”Ten against one, there should be no problem!”
Sweating upside down, Chen Ge was ready to fight with all his might.
The ghost baby outside the door looked at the wooden door, the surface of its body slowly became wrinkled, pungent red liquid dripped out of its skin, and that liquid seemed to rotate around it like a tadpole after it landed.
All the blood drops seemed to possess their own consciousness, looking just like the blood filaments on the monsters of the Weird Tales Association, infused with resentment and death intent, chilling.
”This child looks like it’s only a few months old, not even old enough to remember, how could it carry such a strong aura of resentment?”
The conditions for the formation of a Redcoat Chen Ge hadn’t been able to figure out so far, he only knew a few key points, firstly, they had to be filled with grievances before they died, and secondly, they were extremely offensive!
Every Redcoat was synonymous with cruelty and tyranny, their first reaction to seeing other ghosts and monsters was to tear them apart and swallow them!
Whether it was Zhang Ya or Xu Yin, they both displayed similar traits.
Facing the red clothes, Chen Ge didn’t dare to be careless.
The light emitted by the lantern became dimmer, the walls on both sides of the street were faintly red, the baby slowly turned its body, it did not launch a direct attack, but slowly crawled in the direction where the wooden door was.
Blood flowed underneath its body, seemingly ready to surge towards the wooden door at any moment.
In the nick of time, Chen Ge rehearsed in his head, he was going to call out Xu Yin first, and then pull away to use Yan Dainian’s ability, even if he couldn’t pull the ghost baby into the middle of the comic, he should still be able to slow it down.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he then summoned the other severe ghosts in the comic book, all the ghosts and monsters together, trying to hit the ghost baby in one go.
Chen Ge had been avoiding a head-on clash with Red Clothes, but that didn’t mean he didn’t have the strength to fight.
”It’s a big risk, but if we can kill the ghost baby for Xu Yin to swallow, then Xu Yin can 100% become the new Red Clothes!”
Thinking of this, Chen Ge finally made the decision to break the cauldron and fight to the death!
The Yin pupil exuded a slight coolness, he was ready, but the ghost baby outside the door suddenly stopped, its wrinkled ears twitched, and it seemed like there was a woman calling out its name from a far away place.
A trace of scorn and fear appeared on his ugly face, the blood drops on the ground returned back into his body, his skin returned to its original appearance, and the ghost baby left with a speed faster than just now.
It was only until the ghost baby crawled far away that Chen Ge’s clenched hand slowly loosened, and he moved his body with difficulty.
”I don’t know if it’s good or bad for this red-clothed child to leave.” Chen Ge looked complicated, the ghost baby left, he avoided a fight with little chance of winning, but that woman’s voice could scare the ghost baby away, which meant that there were still red clothes in the village that were even more terrifying than the ghost baby, and the next time they met again they might have to deal with two red clothes at the same time.
”In the end, it’s a three-star horror scene.” Moving his wrist, Chen Ge stood up straight and turned back to Old Wei and Master Bai, “It’s okay for now, that thing has left.”
”You’re so startled, what exactly came over just now, did it stop outside our door for a while?” Old Wei rubbed his nose, “I could smell a bloody odor through the door.”
”It was a small baby.”
”A baby?”
”I can’t tell you clearly.” Chen Ge didn’t bother to explain, “All you guys need to remember is that when you see a monster in red in this village, you should hurry up and hide, don’t try to resist, even running away in front of it is a redundant move.”
”Red clothes …… “Old Wei nodded and memorized the word: “Where are we going now?”
”Stay in this mansion for now.” As the night deepened and more and more very scary things began to appear within the Living Coffin Village, Chen Ge didn’t dare to be lax anymore.
”This Living Coffin Village’s trial mission, even though it only has one short sentence, the difficulty is estimated to be even greater than the Third Sickness Mansion.”
There were only two simple words for living, but to the current Chen Ge, it was a great challenge.
”Ghost babies, the woman who scared away the ghost babies, there are at least two Redcoats within the Living Coffin Village, and the strength of that woman among them is estimated to be much stronger than the average Redcoat.” Chen Ge looked back at his shadow, and he suddenly realized that other than Zhang Ya and Xu Yin, the other severe ghosts in the House of Horrors were just guys who looked fierce on the surface.
”Luckily, I didn’t do anything, it would have been embarrassing if I had been outnumbered ten to one and still got massacred by the other side.”
Chen Ge touched the white cat’s small head, the white cat that had just made a great achievement had not yet slowed down, its pair of heterochromatic eyes were lifelessly looking at Chen Ge, and the hairs on its neck were still standing up until now.
”Don’t be afraid, remember to tell me if there’s any danger, I won’t leave you alone to escape.”
Chen Ge put his bag on his back and stood in the courtyard with the skull crushing hammer, this old mansion was relatively large, overgrown with weeds, and there were two dead trees in the courtyard.
”There’s a lantern hanging on the door, there may be ghosts and monsters hiding inside the house, you two be careful yourself.”
”Chen Ge, wait a moment.” Master Bai shone a flashlight on the two trees in the yard, “Do you think this tree looks a bit familiar? The branches and trunks are withered, the roots are exposed, and the center bulges out in a big piece, kind of like the tree planted over the corpse of Zhu’s eldest daughter?”
Being told this by Grandpa Bai, Chen Ge also felt that there was some similarity, when Zhu Xinru was stuffed upside down into the peach tree pit.
Pushing the tree trunk with both hands, the root system underneath had rotted, and Chen Ge could vaguely see a person buried underneath the pit.
”Don’t push the tree over.” Master Bai stopped Chen Ge, “There used to be a similar saying circulating in the village, it seems that when people who have been possessed by evil spirits die, they have to be buried into the land upside down like this, and then a peach tree has to be planted on top of it, so as to suppress the evil spirits in them.”
”That means doing this is to suppress the evil?” Chen Ge touched the trunk of the tree, and he felt something was wrong again, “Grandpa, it seems like the peach tree planted on top of these two corpses isn’t a peach tree.”
It was pitch black in the courtyard, and the three of them looked for half a day before recognizing that what was planted on the two corpses was an acacia tree.
”The acacia tree is said to be the ghost in the wood, planting acacia trees on corpses is the first time I’ve seen it.” White moncler outlet online grabbed Chen Ge’s arm: “More is better than less, in any case, do not touch it certainly will not touch its mold.”
”That’s not necessarily true, there are two corpses buried right in the yard, this mansion is definitely not clean, maybe we’ve been targeted now.”
