Chapter Two: Ghost Girl
He Jian Fei took a few steps backwards and stopped when he reached the door Qin Xiao Tian looked astonished as he stared at the quiet and sullen He Jian Fei, unsure as to what he’s going to do to hi The Eye of Dharhost’s forradually becairl with short hair A section of her outstretched tongue hung out of herlimply on his chin, and she had no irises in her eyes, only the white of her eyes were visible At the iant anaconda It was obvious that she was a hanged ghost[2] Even after taking a closer look, she was nothing but a regular haunting spectre, not only was her dey[4] wasn’t particularly strong either So why is she here guarding Qin Xiao Tian instead of going through reincarnation? He Jian Fei grew more and host tongue[5] “I aht now I have questions to ask you Who are you? What is your relationshi+p with Qin Xiao Tian? Why are you protecting him?”
Qin Xiao Tian saw that He Jian Fei switched froe and suspicious expression Hisrapidly, but Qin Xiao Tian couldn’t hear any sounds He thought that He Jian Fei had gone insane after hearing the news, and his body went liainst the side of the table and yelled out hoarsely, “Help! Soone crazy!” Unfortunately,went to see the scene of death, nobody was there to hear his panicked cries for help He Jian Fei already disliked the guy, so he didn’t bother explaining it to hihost
“Who ahost finally answered hiish, but didn’t sound as hazy and ethereal as other ghosts “I don’t even knoho I a the identity I had when I was alive? Knowing that I still love hih I died because of him, he’s not to blame He only broke up with me because those despicable women seduced him I knew that deep down, he still likes me Yes, he still likes me That’s why I have to stay here, I have to drive away those other wo with his body, will forever and ever be mine and mine alone” He Jian Fei listened and a chill ran down his spine This woether with Qin Xiao Tian’s soul, controlling his body together This was a great sacrifice for a ghost that doesn’t have oat[6] But at the saer be Qin Xiao Tian anymore If love becomes deformed and reaches this state, what difference is there between love and hate?
In accordance with the rules of thehand when encountering ghostly possessions But He Jian Fei absolutely despised the culprit that indirectly irl, so he wasn’t going to do anything about this possession He Jian Fei sighed and closed The Eye of Dharained consciousness and saw that Qin Xiao Tian was still desperately shouting for help, he walked over and said to hiut you with a knife But Chuan Xun was killed by the Haunting Spectre Road, and you really didn’t know the truth behind the incident If I kill you out of er towards you, there would probably be so for o But you have to listen carefully, this doesn’t iven you I still think that you don’t deserve to live as a hu” He Jian Fei paused and took another look at the green mist around Qin Xiao Tian, then said to him word by word, “Those who play with fire shall burn in their own flah” Then, he left behind the confused and stupefied Qin Xiao Tian and turned to walk away
Due to such a large scale incident taking place on campus, the school was forced to cancel all its classes He Jian Fei didn’t want to go and see the scene of death andin the dorm room wasn’t any better either Because he didn’t really have anywhere to go, he headed off to the audio-visual education building to search for Criht Because of the dis But the sun was blazing outside today, so he saw al white path to the left of the audio-visual education building Lush green weeds on either side of the road grew to his waist level, God knohen it was last triround, slightly parting to the sides It seeo, and left behind a trace After parting the weeds and walking into the entrance to the road, He Jian Fei realized that he can’t quite call it a srew heavily on either side of the road, and everywhere was sprawling with foliage, it still wasn’t enough to hide hoide the road actually was At the centre of the road res that clearly defined the road boundaries One could still faintly see its for scene that it once housed But now, it’s a scene of absolute desolation, everywhere was broken and dilapidated To the right of the road entrance stood a short and crookedoff the rust stains revealed the words “Cri, the word “Crier than the other, and a lot messier as well, it’s quite obvious that it had once been altered All of this pointed to the legend of the Haunting Spectre Road Fear gradually rippled throughout the quiet, abandoned road
To others, this was merely an ordinary road, but to He Jian Fei, aat it was torture The instant he brushed aside the grass and walked in from the road entrance, He Jian Fei’s body shi+vered involuntarily, a chill crawled up from the bottom of his feet, all the way up to the top of his head His skin started beco numb, and soon, the contents of his stomach became restless as well Dizziness, chills, nausea, the body’s natural reaction to hateful energy after practicing ical arts were all present on this road The depth of hateful energy accu proportion He Jian Fei had overly underesti Spectre Road, aside fro any protective er keep it up and observe further So all he could do was to hurriedly pluck a blade of grass froy, then quickly fleeing from the road
He Jian Fei returned to the dorm and saw that the others have still yet to return, but He Jian Fei still sealed shut the door and s quite cautiously, leaving only a small crack in the balconyfor air He pulled over the table and set the blade of grass down on top, then took off the Buddhist prayer beads frorass down in the hter and lit the blade of grass on fire The grass was burned to a charred powder, a small “squeaky” noise sounded particularly clear in the still silence A burning s to each and every corner of the roorass, when suddenly, a strange sight occurred At first the prayer beads slowly expanded outwards, each bead was stiorously, but He Jian Fei has yet to see any scarlet sinister energy[7] appearing out of the grass He Jian Fei’s heart sank If the sinister energy could not be detected, yet the prayer beads had such a strong reaction, then there were only two possibilities One would host was of benevolent nature and has no intentions of hary While the other h levels of hateful energy, the beads were unable to bless it And by the looks of things right now, he’s al Spectre Road was the latter case
He Jian Fei sat li the whole incident through Judging by the legend of the Haunting Spectre Road, it started killing people after the death of the girl that was raped and killed, so the ghostly killer had to be either the first girl who hung herself, or the male student that later died Since then, a few people die each year, and the co Spectre Road its power, finally developing into its state today But did the people who died later join the ranks ofthem down one by one would easily solve the probleo? If you are still harbouring resentment, then let it all out now” The crazy upperclassmen’s words flashed across his ht! Why doesn’t he go find that upperclass Spectre Road?
“What?!” The upperclassmen stared at hi that you knowaway at his tea leisurely “That’s right In other words, I have the ability to call out your girlfriend’s ghost to come and meet you But of course, h I do have to reret it for the rest of your life” The upperclassirlfriend to the point ofthat He Jian Fei has a way to let hiain, his eyes reddened and tears streamed down his face He didn’t even hear clearly the last two sentences that He Jian Fei had said, he siorously, “I’ll help I’ll help! Take me to her quickly!” His eyes were filled with both anxiousness and eagerness He Jian Fei looked at the man before hiing desires, finally recovering after a good long while, pried the upperclassht at 11 PM sharp, I’ll wait for you at the corner of the campus road Remember to be careful, don’t let anyone see you Otherwise, our plans for tonight will be ruined” The upperclassrinned and said, “Don’t worry Even if so, because to theone crazy”
After he finished dealing with everyone that ca Chuan Xun’sand condolences from school authorities and fellow students, He Jian Fei looked to see that it was already 10:45 PM He opened his desk drawer and took out a sandalwood box, upon opening the box, revealed a peculiar looking necklace laying quietly inside The necklace wasin theWhen the light hits its surface, splendid colours refracted fro faintly visible was flowing about the inside of the bead This was one of Mount Wutai’s five ical instruest defensive abilities in the hosts will perish if they coer ones will succuiven to him by his master when He Jian Fei was still a boy Since he accepted the ical instruine that the first ti Spectre Road was like a newly discovered creature, full of y levels were, and there was no way of telling how strong itsan extra person with hi that would be able to guarantee their safety He did not want any accidents to happen on his watch
He Jian Fei walked out of the dorm, when he came around the corner, he saw that the upperclassmen was already there He Jian Fei sht for the audio-visual education building Despite being protected by the Sarira necklace, He Jian Fei still didn’t dare to go in rashly They only stood far off fro the entrance
The upperclassirlfriend? Why don’t I see her?” ”
“What is your girlfriend’s name?” He Jian Fei asked”
“Xiao Fang”
He Jian Fei glanced over at hi for her full name, not what you call her”
“Zhang Qing Fang”
He Jian Fei stuck a few yellow paper talismans on the upperclass“You stay back” Then He Jian Fei took off the Buddhist prayer beads froether with the beads encircling the Spectre Road and chanted, “Disciple He Jian Fei of the Mount Wutai school has inforents of The Underworld, Buddha’s coiven us special orders to shi+eld and sustain all earthly beings, Haunting Spectre Road has taken the lives of nued into an abyss of nation fro of the agents to open the gateways, allowing Zhang Qing Fang’s spirit to appear, aiding Buddha in his means to expiate the sins[9] of the deceased” As soon as he finished speaking, the prayer beads e towards the entrance to Haunting Spectre Road
A transparent silhouette began to gather and fornized the person that it had fored to see day and night “Xiao Fang!” The upperclassmen shouted, “I’veher, giving He Jian Fei, as standing next to him, quite a scare However, what happened next shocked hi over towards her, but remained ht arertips, and he shouted, “NO! Get away from her!” He Jian Fei ran up to the upperclassround At the sa a barrier with seven yellow paper talisreen rass beside the sy? The upperclassmen was taken aback at first, but suddenly tried to rush to her side again, it’s a good thing that He Jian Fei stopped hi inside the barrier, the upperclass, it’s leaht, and said in an ominous tone, “Comply and live, resist and perish”
