Chapter 40: Resolution
Eyes on Dong Fengcai, who was still in extreme panic again, Xia Qi wanted to ask her something, but looking at her like this, it was obvious that it was a vain question to ask, and she was destined to not be able to ask why. ~,
"If the ghosts really had the ability to make them disappear before my eyes, or get them to go somewhere else, they would have done it in the first place, and it would have been impossible to wait until now."
Thinking of Qu Youyou's disappearance, Xia Qi suddenly thought of a possibility, he remembered that in the process of investigating this incident, he heard the police at the police station talk about one thing, that is, when the first person who was killed, Ma Liangchao, a friend of hers named Lina, insisted that she slept with Ma Liangchao that night, Ma Liangchao's clothes, mobile phone and everything were there, but the person was gone, and finally Ma Liangchao's body was found in his own home.
He didn't think much about it after hearing it at the time, but now that he thinks about it in combination with Qu Youyou, will there be such a possibility.
Oni does not have the ability to directly get people from one place to another, but it can use some of its abilities to make the victim disappear on their own.
Just like Ma Liangchao, if Ma Liangchao had a similar dream of being chased and killed before and then being chased to her home by a ghost, then she might also do this kind of behavior in reality, thus triggering a certain ability of the ghost, so that she could escape from Lena's house back to her own home in a special way like teleportation, and thus be killed.
Although there are too many uncertainties about this possibility, Xia Qi doesn't want to accept the fact that Qu Youyou was taken away and killed by ghosts under his nose.
And the key is that if Qu Youyou is also killed, there will only be one Dong Fengcai left, then his situation will undoubtedly become more dangerous, which is equivalent to having no way out at all.
So if there is a chance to save Qu Youyou, he has to give it a go.
Recalling the nightmare that Qu Youyou described to him, and the ghost thing that suddenly rushed out of the bathroom, Xia Qi felt that his conjecture was inseparable.
I heard Xia Qi remind Dong Fengcai at this time:
"You wait for me here, I'll go find Qu Youyou."
After saying that, Xia Qi thought about leaving. But after thinking about it, I was afraid that the cunning ghost would play with him to play the routine of the tiger leaving the mountain, so he had to be like a chicken. resisted Dong Fengcai on his body, and then went downstairs desperately.
Qu Youyou had no idea what was going on, and she felt like she was having the same nightmare again.
Because when she opened her eyes again, Xia Qi and Dong Fengcai were gone, and then she saw the demon. Waving the hammer in his hand, he rushed out of the bathroom viciously.
She didn't even have time to think about whether this was a dream or reality, so she subconsciously escaped from the house.
It wasn't until she escaped the hallway, and had escaped some distance, that she had fully combined her current experience with the dream she had before.
But although she had realized that this was a dream, her footsteps still did not dare to pause in the slightest, and she still instinctively fled forward.
As for the demon who kept chasing her, his speed became faster and faster as time passed, and at first it was still a few dozen meters away from her, but just now when she turned her head to look over. The demon was already a stone's throw away from her.
A strong sense of crisis kept hitting her already fragile heart, and her legs became softer and softer under the impact of this sense of crisis, and her feet were suddenly tripped over by a hard thing, and Qu Youyou fell heavily on the ground in exclamation.
Qu Youyou screamed in pain, and the string of hurried footsteps behind her was closer to her, she didn't care about her bruised knees, and blindly got up from the ground, but after not running a few steps, her body froze as if she was electrocuted.
Because there is no road in front of me, it is completely a dead end. She escaped into a hopeless dead end.
Turning around, his back pressed against the cold wall, Qu Youyou looked at the hideous ghost that attacked him, full of unwilling and fearful screams.
It's just that her screams don't have the slightest effect on the coming of death. I could only watch as a hammer that exuded the breath of death smashed down on my head.
Qu Youyou felt that her life was passing, and her brain was completely blank at this moment.
While the world was swallowed up by gray and white, even the voices of the outside world disappeared with it.
But just when Qu Youyou felt that she was dead, she saw that the hammer that had originally smashed her suddenly deflected to the other side. Then I saw a figure emerge from the darkness and cut off the ghost's arm holding the hammer.
The ghost thing's arm fell directly to the ground, and Qu Youyou's eyes widened in disbelief, and he saw that Xia Qi was already entangled with the ghost thing.
The world regained its color again, the previous dark environment disappeared, and the sky was cloudy and bright, Qu Youyou found herself standing in an alley in an old alley, and at the exit of the alley, Dong Fengcai was sitting on the ground, looking at her with blank eyes.
There is no doubt that Xia Qi's guess about the ability of ghosts is correct, ghosts do have the ability to make people disappear suddenly, but this ability needs to be activated by the victim himself.
The nightmare that Qu Youyou had is the best evidence, the ghost will create a route for Qu Youyou in the dream, and then it will guide Qu Youyou along that route, just like teleporting, it is also walking, but for people who teleport, time is slow at that moment.
Xia Qi felt that although this ghost ability was not teleportation, it was also a spatial ability, but no matter what, he guessed the right direction, so he could rush over in time to stop it.
Lost the hammer head, the ghost's attack ability is almost negligible, Xia Qi after eating the loss of being escaped by it last time, this time it came up with full firepower, after cutting off one of the ghost's arms, and then the short dagger in his hand was plunged into the blood hole on the ghost's head.
I don't know if the blood hole on the head is the weakness of this ghost thing, when Xia Qi inserted the short dagger into it, the ghost thing was like a noodle, and it suddenly fell to the ground.
However, for the sake of insurance, and at the same time to vent the anger in his heart, Xia Qi directly cut the ghost thing that fell to the ground into dozens of pieces.
Then, I saw that the ghost thing that was chopped by him turned into a trace of black gas and directly drilled into his body.
A pleasant chime came from the honor table, signaling the end of this event.
After dealing with the ghosts, Xia Qi breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, and Qu Youyou still maintained his previous posture, still looking at him in disbelief.
As if not believing that what she had just seen was real. (To be continued.) )
