Chapter 58: Rat-Faced Man
Chapter 58 Rat-faced Man (Please read~)
Yu Ke is not afraid of evil spirits.
He was not pretending to say those words in front of Xu Wan.
On the one hand, the high perception and detection of unknown things brought by the trait of checking for omissions and filling gaps just restrain this kind of existence.
As long as the two sides come into contact, Yu Ke is confident that he can see through the essence of the evil spirit.
On the other hand, the control of wind and snow enriches Yu Ke's offensive means. Even if it is a spirit, he has a way to cause damage to the other party.
Even if he really encounters a special individual that is particularly difficult to deal with, he can still call for help.
The General Administration of Disaster Prevention is now having a headache because it can't catch evil spirits.
In fact, while waiting for Xu Wan to eat noodles, Yu Ke had already sent messages to An Saili and Zhang Renqi respectively.
Pay the bill and leave the noodle shop.
Yu Ke and Xu Wan walked into the community side by side.
The atmosphere was quite dull. Xu Wan wanted to say something many times but stopped, while Yu Ke deliberately pretended not to see it and his eyes wandered around the community.
Although the ghost attack happened in the neighborhood next door, the residents here reacted strongly after learning about it.
Along the way, you can see many people walking out with their families, carrying suitcases in their hands. It is obvious that they plan to go to other places to avoid the limelight for a while and return after the ghost is caught.
"Heaven and earth, please show your spirit~"
Just after turning around the flower bed at the main entrance of the community, I ran into a Taoist priest wearing a yellow and black Taoist robe, holding a peach wood sword and a brass bell, chanting classic spells and scattering paper money on the roadside with strange steps.
What's even more bizarre is that there are actually two Taoist children with square machines hanging on their chests behind him. They each wear earphones and hold a detection instrument like a shower head to sweep everywhere, and look down at the data displayed on the machine from time to time.
Seeing this scene, Yu Ke just felt it was eye-irritating.
"It is said that he is a professional ghost catcher who combines modern science. He is very famous in our neighborhood and was invited by the property management of the community."
Xu Wan explained in a low voice, and put her hands together and bowed to the roadside.
"You asked me before, are you going to find a hotel outside?"
Yu Ke was too lazy to expose these ghost tricks, and turned to look at Xu Wan and asked.
"The legs and feet of the two elderly people in the family have never been very good, and they are stubborn and unwilling to spend this money. Besides, if you have never done anything wrong in your life, you are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night."
Putting the hair hanging down to the side of the ear to the back of the head, Xu Wan said softly.
"That's right, I will take you here. If anything happens at night, contact me at any time."
Next to it is the 3rd building where Xu Wan lives. Yu Ke stood at the intersection, his eyes turned around the talisman on the gate, and did not find any special energy, and watched Xu Wan go upstairs.
Then he turned around and went to the residence of his predecessor.
Halfway through the walk, the street lights in the community suddenly turned on. I don’t know who set them up. The advertising signs on every section of the road no longer projected advertisements, but various gods, and played difficult scriptures in between.
‘No wonder the residents are in a hurry to move out. I don’t know if they will be attacked by evil spirits if they stay in this environment for a long time. I’m sure their mental health will be in trouble. ’
Yu Ke looked at the King of Growth standing solemnly on the lawn in front of the building with a long sword in his hand, his body was red and purple, and his face was angry.
What is going on?
Ignoring these strange arrangements, Yu Ke walked into Building 5 and took the elevator upstairs.
As expected, there were also many talismans posted in the elevator, but he just pretended not to see them and quickly returned to his home.
Before leaving, Yu Ke asked someone to clean the house, and furniture such as sofas and beds were also covered with dust covers, so the house was relatively clean.
Yu Ke, who was leaving tomorrow, did not plan to spend time on deep cleaning. He did not plan to live in this house anymore anyway, so he would just ask someone to sell it. Xu Wan was a good candidate, and he would give her a commission as a reward.
He did not even plan to sleep in the bedroom, but just opened the dust covers of the sofa and TV.
He took out a few packs of snacks and two cans of drinks from the suitcase, which would be enough for one night, waiting for the evil spirits wandering nearby to come to the door.
Time passed, and night fell outside the house.
Only the rhythmic chanting and sporadic barking of dogs could be heard vaguely, and the horns of passing vehicles honked.
Although Yu Ke felt that the chanting was a bit irritating, he did not close the window, and even simply closed the door without locking it.
Because he was not sure whether the evil spirit would appear in this community tonight, and who would be the target, opening the window would allow him to hear sounds from farther away, and he could also be aware of what happened nearby at the first time.
After all, there were still many residents left in the community, and it might be the neighboring community that was in trouble again.
Taking out the weapons from the suitcase and placing them next to him, Yu Ke casually opened a can of drink and checked the situation in the forest patrol camp through his mobile phone.
The surveillance cameras in the camp are running 24 hours a day to ensure that no one or wild animals will go there to cause damage when he is not in the camp. Even if there are, he will know how to deal with it when he returns.
Everything seems to be normal at the moment.
Turning on the TV and tuning to the evening news, Yu Ke watched the major events that happened in Danhang City recently, and soon switched to the variety show channel to kill time.
The clock hands on the wall kept turning, but the expected evil ghost attack never appeared.
Yu Ke leaned back on the sofa and began to search the neighboring community with his mobile phone. At the same time, he contacted Xu Wan to ask about her situation.
He received a reply soon. Xu Wan was also fine. She was sorting out the lesson plan for tomorrow.
Could it be that the ghost-catching Taoist priest really played a role and drove away the evil ghost?
Thinking of this, Yu Ke stood up and walked to the window. He lowered his eyes to look down at the building in the community. After confirming that nothing unusual happened, he returned to the house with some disappointment, thinking of taking a rest first.
However, almost at the same time when Yu Ke turned around and left the windowsill.
A vague figure floated on the roof of the community building.
A pair of black cloth shoes with white soles stepped on the edge of the rooftop, and the hunched body leaned forward. Two shriveled pale palms hung from the cuffs. In the light and shadow formed by the scattered light on the rooftop, the blue-gray pointed-mouthed rat mask leaned forward, and a pair of slender eyes were faintly revealed in the eye sockets.
"Go, go and bring back the flesh and blood filled with fear. Tomorrow we will set off for Jinghu Forest. You have to harvest more tonight to fill your stomach, so that you don't have to find a way to feed you after entering the forest."
There was no one around, but the rat-faced man was talking to himself in the air, overlooking the lights in the community, and said coldly,
"It's another harvest night!"
The moment the voice fell.
The light and shadow beside the rat-faced man trembled constantly, and a black shadow flew past and headed straight for the houses in the community.
If you look closely, all kinds of strange phenomena will appear without exception where these black shadows pass.
The wall tiles of the high-rise building are full of mottled cracks, and twisted black shadows flash on the windows. Even the green plants that can be seen everywhere in the community seem to be given evil life, and the branches and leaves are swaying.
More vicious than evil spirits is the human heart!
The next chapter will be later.
The collection has increased a bit recently, and I am a bit confused.
I was a bit busy with work before the New Year, and I rarely visited the writer's assistant. I was shocked when I saw it yesterday.
This week should be the time to go to Sanjiang, so I still ask for a follow-up reading as usual~
