Chapter 214: The Follower in the Darkness

"Ah..."

Miao Shi's positive attitude.

Surprised even Wu Xian.

Frankly speaking, his previous suggestion did have the intention of helping Miao Shi, but more of it was wanting Miao Shi to act as a lab rat.

Now that Miao Shi was actively asking to be possessed again, Wu Xian felt a bit embarrassed.

Then Wu Xian was in a dilemma.

It was a good thing that Miao Shi was willing to actively act as a lab rat.

But the biggest problem now was how to let the possessing ghost possess Miao Shi; that ghost was still lying on Jiang Xiuping's back!

Without solving Jiang Xiuping, there was no way to let the possessing ghost look for a new host.

So after everyone discussed, they decided.

First, split into groups to look for other ghosts and find a way to investigate the remaining six ghosts clearly.

In the process of investigation.

If anyone encountered Jiang Xiuping hiding in the building, they would kill the possessing ghost or destroy Jiang Xiuping so she couldn't be controlled.

This way, when they came back in the morning, everyone could take pictures collectively.

Compared to last time.

This time the total number of people was seven fewer, leaving only twenty-three, and after the previous night, many people were no longer able to participate in group investigations.

So this time they only split into four groups.

The first group had five people, and they chose to stay in the lobby, they were:

Miao Shi, the one-eyed patient actively waiting to be possessed by a ghost;

Old Lady Liu, who was old and had inconvenient legs and feet, unable to stay up all night outside;

The only surviving native of Han Ke's group, a woman who had gone insane from being frightened by the terrifying scene;

And Liu Kai... this time he wasn't a patient, but he insisted that he had eaten too much, so his stomach hurt and he couldn't walk, and under the disdainful eyes of everyone, he forcibly stayed behind.

The last one was Liao Yifang.

She chose to stay here for two reasons.

The first was that if she didn't stay, then after tonight, this group might not have a single person alive.

In addition, she believed that even if they stayed still, ghosts would come to find them, and she planned to wait for the rabbit in the hotel lobby.

The remaining three groups were all six people.

Based on yesterday's grouping.

The second group was Han Ke, Sha Huaqiang, Yan Ting, Luo Shiyi, mercenaries Chen Kui and Cai Xing; of yesterday's two groups, only these six were left who could act normally today.

The third group was Lou Yaozong, Zhang Wei, Qian Yunhe, Li Wangyou, Tong Yuai, and Li Qi.

The fourth group was Wu Xian, Shi Ji, Sun Qian, Zhu Shuhui, Yan Bingbing, and An Haisheng.

The three groups going out each had their own purposes.

They discussed simply, confirmed that their targets didn't overlap, and then scattered to look for traces of ghosts everywhere...

The corridor at night.

Shining with flashlight light, Wu Xian's group was passing through here.

The corridor should have been very quiet, but at this time, the sound of a ball bouncing rang out.

Bang!

Bang!

The ball-bouncing ghost blocked the middle of the corridor, the empty-bouncing ball stirred up bursts of dust out of thin air, looking very weird.

Wu Xian carried the Ghost-Head Blade and walked over.

He slashed a few times casually, as easily as if he were swinging a fly swatter; the baleful aura on the blade scared the ball-bouncing ghost into retreating immediately, and even the ball fell to the ground.

Pfft.

Sun Qian followed behind Wu Xian, and with a casual stab of the peach wood sword, the small ball was punctured.

In the air, an ethereal, mournful sigh drifted out.

Shi Ji originally wanted to stab it with the Filth-One-Character, but now that the ball was punctured, he threw a Huang Wan into the hole of the ball and stepped on it hard.

A strange smell drifted out.

After the three of them messed it up like this, this ball could no longer be used.

After Wu Xian and the others' figures disappeared.

A woman covered in blood and filth, with wounds on her body already rotting and stinking, walked out of a room, holding a sharp dagger in her hand, looking coldly at their backs.

In her line of sight.

There was a monster with a concave face in the corridor, which was exactly the ball-bouncing ghost.

The ball-bouncing ghost knelt on the ground, carefully wanting to pick up its ball, but its hand started to retract as soon as it touched the ball.

Under normal circumstances.

It only needed to blow a breath at the gap in the ball to restore its weapon.

But this ball...

It couldn't bring itself to put its mouth on it!

The target of Wu Xian's group was the room where Long Wo and Chu Feng died yesterday.

They had been wandering in the wilderness for the past two days, and now it was time to investigate the buildings on the island.

Two ghosts appeared in this room last night.

One ghost was the screen ghost in the display screen, and the other was the unknown ghost that made Chu Feng fall off the building; because there were two ghosts, no one wanted to take this risk except Wu Xian's group, and Yan Ting and the others directly stated that they wouldn't come again no matter what.

But Wu Xian felt the opposite.

Compared to unknown risks, known dangers were easier to guard against.

According to the description of Luo Shiyi and the others, Wu Xian inferred that the condition for the screen ghost to appear was to let the display screen be powered on, and the ability was to pull people into the TV with hair.

As long as he knew these, he could summon her out after being prepared and kill her on the spot.

As for that ghost that made people jump off the building... let's consider it after solving the screen ghost.

After the six people entered the room, they immediately closed the door.

Wu Xian leaned close to An Haisheng and asked in a low voice.

"Did she follow?"

"Let me check first."

An Haisheng clicked on a video recorded earlier, and after watching it, his body trembled slightly.

"She is following, right behind us!"

When Wu Xian's group was walking upstairs, they noticed faint footsteps behind them.

So they let An Haisheng hold the camera upside down and record when they were at the corner, and sure enough, they recorded Jiang Xiuping's figure.

Perhaps because there were too many of them.

Jiang Xiuping had always just followed from afar and didn't approach.

Wu Xian really wanted to rush up and hack her, but the distance was too far, and he was afraid she would run away, so he didn't make a sound for the time being.

The possessing ghost should be wanting to pounce and kill when they split up or fell into a crisis; as long as their situation was still okay, they didn't need to worry about her for the time being.

After confirming the situation of the possessing ghost.

Wu Xian looked at the room.

This room looked like it had been robbed by bandits, with miscellaneous items all over the floor, all the cabinet doors were opened, but the side by the window still had dust accumulated, and the items were placed relatively neatly...

After seeing the broken display, Wu Xian frowned.

This meant he couldn't use the same method to fish the ghost inside the display screen out.

"Yan Ting and Luo Shiyi turned this place into this, which means there is something they are looking for here..."

"But the window side is very neat, which means they didn't dare to approach the window."

"Perhaps the thing they are looking for is on the side near the window!"

After seeing the broken monitor, Wu Xian frowned.

This meant he could not use the same method to fish out the ghost inside the display screen.

"Yan Ting and Luo Shiyi turning this place upside down like this shows that there is something here they are looking for..."

"But the area by the window is very tidy, which shows they didn't dare to approach the window."

"Perhaps the thing they are looking for is on the side near the window!"
