Chapter 128

"Delicious? Then eat more."

The stall owner jumped out, knocked him down with a shovel, and then stepped on his stomach.

There were no organs on his face; it was like a leather mask covering his head.

The only thing visible was his Adam's apple, which was rolling.

Using the shovel, he picked up the boiling stones and some chestnuts and minced meat from the pot, stuffing them directly into his mouth.

Countless boiling stones flew down like a waterfall, entering his throat and then his stomach.

He didn't even need to swallow them himself; these things seemed alive and drilled directly inside.

The person lying on the ground couldn't even scream properly; his throat was swallowing, completely out of control.

He could only watch helplessly as one boiling black stone after another fell into his mouth and entered his stomach.

Slowly, his entire stomach was filled, and the stomach burst, beginning to squeeze other organs.

His stomach bulged high, but the stones kept falling; the throat pipe burst, his neck was filled, and his mouth was filled.

It only ended when not a single one more could fit inside.

The stall owner smiled, clapped his hands in satisfaction, returned to the stall, and continued to shout, "Roasted chestnuts for sale, fragrant and sweet chestnuts."

Xu Jiajia and the others who had just come down were all terrified by this scene.

Only at this moment did they understand that the college student's way of dying was simply a mercy; if one died like this, that was truly a case of being unable to live and unable to die.

Xu Jiajia wanted to turn and run, but she found that Xiao Wan was holding her tightly.

"Xiao Wan... let's go, hurry up and go, don't stay in place!"

She was almost crying; this way of dying had terrified her.

Xiao Wan looked up at Xu Jiajia and said, "Mommy told us not to move. Xiao Wan isn't holding you; it's Mommy holding you."

Xu Jiajia:!!!

Hearing Xiao Wan's voice, she looked down abruptly at her hand. She was standing on the far left, holding Lin Xiaowan's hand with her right hand, but at this moment, there was another hand on her right wrist—a pale hand, gripping her tightly.

Her eyes rolled back, and she almost fainted. She blinked violently, but the pale hand quickly disappeared again.

An illusion!

"Is this an illusion?" Xu Jiajia's heart beat violently. She felt she was going crazy, and her whole being was hovering on the edge of collapse.

And Tang Meili knew clearly that this was not an illusion; this was Lin Qing truly being here! From the beginning, from the moment they walked into her psychological clinic, Lin Qing had been there, but they just didn't believe it at the time.

Tang Meili hadn't moved at all, and Xu Jiajia was pulled back.

On the other side, the trendy young man was scared to the point of breaking down, and at the same time, he pushed his girlfriend out toward the front while he ran in the opposite direction.

The woman was stunned, looking at his back with a dazed expression.

However, the next second.

He ran very hard, as if using all his strength. A breeze whistled past his ears, and the black buildings were constantly changing.

He suddenly discovered that the harder he ran, the less strength he had. No! It should be that the more he ran, the more wrong the black surroundings became. He looked back and saw that the bodies of the people behind him were growing larger.

That wasn't right either; it was his own body that was shrinking, getting smaller and smaller.

So no matter how hard he ran, he was still very far from where he had just come from.

Gradually, he became something the size of a chestnut.

Subsequently, a shadow flashed past from the front; it was the stall owner flying over, holding a shovel in his hand.

In an instant, he landed in front of the tiny man, then used the shovel to flick him up violently, catching him with his left hand.

The face that had no organs leaned in, looking him over carefully.

Then he used the shovel to tap him—tapping his head very casually, but it was fatal; his head burst directly, and blood splattered everywhere.

The stall owner let go and dropped him on the ground, murmuring, "Broken? What a pity." Immediately, he walked back slowly, carrying the oil lamp. When he passed Xu Jiajia and the others, the latter didn't dare to breathe.

Yet he bowed respectfully, "Customer, would you like to eat some chestnuts? I guarantee they are fragrant and sticky. So many people? Right away, right away, I'll make them for everyone one by one."

Everyone widened their eyes, unable to hide the fear in their hearts.

Especially Xu Jiajia, who was still full of lingering fear. Fortunately, she had been pulled back; fortunately, she hadn't turned and run away.

Otherwise, would she have ended up like that too?

What should they do now? The trendy young woman was still crying, tears streaming down; she didn't know if she was scared or because her boyfriend had died.

For a time, no one moved.

"What should we do, what should we do now? We can't run!" the woman at the counter said with a sobbing voice.

The fatty swallowed his saliva, "I... I don't know. That woman, what should we do now? You speak up, you brought us down here, you have to be responsible."

Tang Meili was stunned:?

Another crazy person, but she didn't want to pay attention to him, only staring forward without moving.

She knew that Lin Qing would help them. With her IQ, it was absolutely impossible to figure this out, so it was better to just lie flat; whatever Xiao Wan did, she would do.

"Customer, the first portion of chestnuts is ready. Come and have a taste."

Suddenly.

The stall owner finished the first portion of chestnuts, picked them up, and stared at the woman.

The woman he was staring at went limp all over, all the strength in her body drained away, and she sat on the ground crying incessantly.

"Sob sob sob, why am I the first one? I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I still have a very beautiful life ahead of me, I don't..."

The ending, however, was very cruel.

At the same time.

The second floor of the mall was also shrouded by the ghost domain.

Unlike the first floor, this was a white world, filled with dolls, toys, and Barbies.

On the third floor, video games—Snake was no longer a game but reality, and two plaster dolls were playing with puppets.

The fourth floor was empty.

The fifth floor was empty.

"How is the situation?" Su Jinlong had already arrived at the scene. The area had already been cordoned off, and they could feel this massive, strange fluctuation even standing outside the mall.

Zhang Miao shook his head, "The ghost level cannot be locked. This is a clear rule-type ghost. The magnetic field is very large, and it cannot be locked at all. The entire mall seems to be a ghost domain."

"There are five floors in total, and all of them are shrouded."

The police had already blocked off the area, and all the Night Watchers in H City were here.

This powerful, strange energy fluctuation in the mall was definitely not something that could be released by a single ghost.

"Teacher, we have discovered movement from Jiang Tang!"

"Teacher, Lü Liang and the others sent news that they have arrived in the J City district and have confirmed that Tang Cai seems to have reached some kind of agreement with the merry-go-round."

Su Jinlong's head was spinning. He stared at this huge mall, and just as he furrowed his brows, he saw a man with a flat-top haircut carrying a bag walk inside.

He didn't look back; the person who went in was Ma Zhen.

"Seal the scene, don't let anything out."
