Nightmare Attack

He was a guy with an exaggerated height. When he walked out of the door, his head was almost pressed against the door frame. A conservative estimate would be about 2 meters, 2 or 3 meters.

Maybe it's because of the light, but I can't see the face clearly.

Wearing a black robe, a large cross hung on his chest. In the dim environment, silver light flowed from the cross.

In fact, Jiang Cheng already knew the identity of this ghost when he saw the cross.

This is the former owner of the folk museum.

The foreign exorcist.

Unexpectedly, after being killed by the Heart-Eating Demon, he turned into a ghost and became a ghost story in Jiangtan University Library.

It's just that the burned borrowing desk should be on the fourth floor. Why did the ghost appear on the first floor?

Without leaving Jiang Cheng any extra time to think, the ghost that the exorcist turned into after his death began to walk towards their direction with stiff steps.

"Boom."

"Boom."

It looked like it was wearing leather boots, and the sound it made when it hit the ground was muffled and heavy, as if it could step directly into a person's heart and burst it.

Not to mention anything else, just in terms of oppression, this ghost is much stronger than the woman in red in the abandoned playground.

Because they didn't know the ghost's killing methods, several people in Jiangcheng stayed put and hid themselves.

The fat man retracted his neck and squatted down.

As the ghost approached, he sniffed and frowned, and a strange burnt smell began to fill the air.

The fat man's first reaction was that the meat was burnt.

But it's not the same, because there is an indescribable smell inside, which is a bit similar to the smell of burning rubber.

Obviously the smell comes from this ghost.

Taking into account what the doctor told him, the fat man rolled his throat up and down a few times, thinking that this foreign friend's life was also quite bitter, and he had also been burned.

Then call him the Burnt Ghost.

This burnt smell seemed to have a magical power. After smelling it for a long time, the whole person's mind became dizzy. The fat man was already trying to hold his breath.

But the smell seemed to be alive, and it kept getting into his nose.

"Click——"

"Click."

The Burnt Ghost seemed to have noticed something. He stopped not far from the table where Huai Yi was hiding, and then turned his neck little by little. It seemed that he was looking for someone.

The Scorched Ghost's movements were very stiff, and as his neck turned, crisp sounds were made from time to time.

Huaiyi hid under the table, not daring to express his anger.

Jiangcheng's location was relatively better, which also gave him more experience observing the Burnt Ghost and thinking about ways to deal with it.

The Burnt Ghost was less than 5 meters away from Huai Yi. If he took two more steps in that direction and then crouched down, he would be able to catch him.

But not the Scorched Ghost.

It can be seen from here that this ghost does not have the perverted ability to find people like the woman in red in the abandoned playground.

It can only roughly sense within which range there are people, but it cannot accurately locate it.

After staying for less than half a minute, the Burnt Ghost's body began to tremble, and in Jiang Cheng's eyes, it looked like he was impatient.

subsequently

"Boom."

"Boom."

In Jiang Cheng's sight, the Burnt Ghost actually walked away with heavy steps.

Went in another direction.

As the burnt ghost left, the strong, head-swelling burnt smell gradually dissipated.

After the Burnt Ghost turned a corner and completely disappeared, the fat man carefully slipped out from behind the bookshelf.

Seeing that Jiang Cheng had no objection, the fat man tiptoed to the pillar where he was hiding.

"Doctor." The fat man asked in a low voice, "Are you leaving now?"

Jiang Cheng's eyes still stayed on the spot where the burnt ghost disappeared. After a moment, he nodded his chin and said, "It should be gone."

The fat man swallowed, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Doctor, did you see where the ghost was standing just now? I feel like it sensed someone nearby."

"But" the fat man raised his head, his eyes full of doubts: "It didn't look carefully, but left in a hurry as if it was in a hurry. Why?"

The fat man's words gave Jiang Cheng some ideas. He turned around and looked at the table not far behind him, where an old hourglass was placed.

One-third of the fine sand in the hourglass has leaked out.

"Time." Jiang Cheng said, "This ghost is also in a hurry. This hourglass is used to keep time."

The fat man stared at the hourglass with a clear expression, "I understand doctor, this ghost must catch someone before all the sand in the hourglass leaks out."

Jiang Cheng did not give a positive or negative answer to Fatty's speculation. There were currently very few clues, so it would be too early to draw a conclusion.

And Jiang Cheng also had a vague feeling that this matter was not that simple.

For the time being, this ghost is just bigger and looks more intimidating, but its abilities are not even as good as those of an ordinary person.

Movements are slow, stiff, and unable to accurately perceive a person's position.

If this is the only thing, then Jiangcheng believes that it will not be able to catch anyone. The strange story in the library this time is the Welfare Bureau.

But unfortunately, that won't happen in the mission.

So they just haven't discovered the real murderous intention yet.

As for the fable, they didn't have time to think about it.

"Doctor." The fat man looked at the pillar beside Jiang Cheng, blinked, and then his pupils suddenly shrank as if he had discovered something incredible, "Why is this pillar here?"

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng turned to look at Zhu Zhu, "What's wrong with Zhu Zhu?"

The fat man stretched out his hand and pulled Jiang Cheng away from the pillar. He seemed to feel that it was not safe. He pulled Jiang Cheng back a few steps and looked at the pillar warily. After a long while, he whispered in a strange voice: "Doctor, we will do this in the morning." When I came, this pillar was not here.”

After the fat man finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to a location on the left, "That's where it should be."

After listening to what the fat man said, almost instantly, Jiang Cheng found the source of the indescribable feeling in his heart.

Everything here was the same as when they came during the day, but the location had changed.

Things originally placed on the left were moved to the right, and the right was moved to the left.

Not one thing or a certain type of thing, but the whole.

The entire library is upside down!

Is this the real reason why they are restricted from going to places where strange stories happen in the school during the day?

The purpose is to prevent them from discovering that everything in the ghost stories is contrary to the real world?

As soon as this idea emerged, it took root in Jiang Cheng's mind.

And with the emergence of this idea, various complex and seemingly unrelated clues were strangely pieced together.

Slowly, Jiang Cheng's thoughts drifted back to the beginning, the warehouse they found at the activity center.

If I remember correctly, there was a mirror hanging on the wall of the warehouse.

It's just broken.

Five of Yuan Xiaoyi's "friends" also disappeared that day.

They all hid themselves in strange stories.
