The scene in front of them is so weird.Thus, Yue Xincheng and his friends can"t even believe their eyes.
The tube-shaped apartment building, where darkness and dead silence reigned everywhere, now suddenly becomes ablaze with lights. Moreover, the light is given off by the freaking bizarre ghost fire b.a.l.l.s.
To their great surprise, the tube-shaped apartment building becomes suddenly bustling. Perhaps before the building became haunted, it had never been so noisy as tonight.
“Are those in the building all ghosts?” Su Hui is freaked out. Usually, she dislikes Yue Xincheng most but now she just can"t help going near him.
Yue Xincheng says nothing. He frowns and suddenly walks forward.
“You stay here and I will go to find them.”
“Yue Xincheng, it"s too dangerous!” Su Hui changes her facial expression and hastens to say.
It was better when Gao Ge and the others went inside there. After all, they outnumbered Yue Xincheng.
Yet, now Yue Xincheng goes there alone. No one knows what will happen to him.
Yue Xincheng turns around and looks at Su Hui, saying, “I have to make sure they are okay.”
After saying that, he walks faster.
Maybe.
When he is with Gao Ge, Yue Xincheng will hide behind him like a little brother.
He calls Gao Ge Boss so in his heart, he truly takes Gao Ge as his elder brother.
Hence, he always feels that Gao Ge, his boss, should have him covered.
Otherwise, he will not ask Gao Ge for help once he encounters any problem.
Even when he was hurt emotionally by Su Hui, he also asked Gao Ge for some comfort.
He knows that his boss is mighty.
Therefore, he can enjoy everything that Gao Ge gives him.
However, now Gao Ge is in danger.
He is not sure that Gao Ge and the rest of the people can see the same thing he sees.
He tried to call Gao Ge but failed. He must rush inside and tell them what he has seen.
This is his boss.
This is his brother.
As a young brother, shouldn"t he just step up when his elder brother is in danger?
He is determined!
Nevertheless, he hasn"t walked far when he hears someone walking towards him.
He turns around only to see Su Hui coming towards him. He feels a bit shocked.
Su Hui directly walks by him and then turns around to say, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up!”
“Su Hui…”
“Enough. Meng Jing is also my good friend!”
Yue Xincheng laughs and nods his head.
They walk side by side.
“Su Hui, rest a.s.sured. I will protect you.”
“You"d better protect yourself.” Su Hui says with a sneer.
Gao Ge knows about the change in the building.
However, he doesn"t get a direct view of it as Yue Xincheng does.
Under the light of the ghost fire, everyone appears a bit ghastly.
Sun Lei, who is timid, just closes his eyes and doesn"t even dare to see Gao Ge and the others.
They hear the sound of footsteps in the rooms and see some figures.
“Gao Ge…” Meng Jing grabs Gao Ge"s arm tightly.
Gao Ge doesn"t say anything. Instead, holding the sword, he kicks away the door in front of him.
When he kicks open the door, a gust of pressure goes at him.
He waves his sword and it surprisingly clatters.
Gao Ge has a feeling that his sword has. .h.i.t on an iron board.
Hence, he can"t help feeling pain in his wrist.
Dong!
Dong!
The familiar sound of drum beating comes again.
In such a small place, the sound of drum beating is still lingering on, just like rolls of thunder.
“What is that?” Sun Lei gets pale.
Gao Ge looks at him and frowns, asking, “You didn"t hear the drum beating when you came here before?”
Sun Lei shakes his head.
Meng Jing is also so confused.
Gao Ge feels frustrated at the moment.
The drum beating is just like being prepared for him.
As the drum beating comes, the familiar pressure floods in again.
Instantly, Meng Jing and the others become pale and are even shivering. They would feel intolerable as long as they came near the building and now, they are in the center of it.
Gao Ge drags Xia Lu to himself and meanwhile runs the power of stars to transfer it to both of them.
When the power of stars is transferred to them, Xia Lu and Meng Jing get better soon.
Sun Lei surely has noticed something so he struggles to stagger towards Gao Ge.
“Get lost.”
Gao Ge responds to him with only two words.
With only two hands, Gao Ge is only capable enough to protect Xia Lu and Meng Jing. Even if he had one more hand, he would never pay attention to Sun Lei!
Sun Lei wants to refute and instead, he rolls his eyes and pa.s.ses out.
“Leave!”
Gao Ge knows they cannot stay here for long so he takes Meng Jing and Xia Lu to keep walking forward.
The first time when he tried to come near the building, even with the help of the power of stars, he found it hard to bear the pressure. However, this time, together with Meng Jing and Xia Lu, he feels quite okay. He wonders whether it is because he has antibody for the pressure or the big boss in the building starts to show mercy.
After careful consideration, it seems that the latter a.s.sumption is the more tenable.
If so, what is the guy up to?
Gao Ge can"t figure it out.
The drum beating sound has stopped.
Gao Ge and his companions start to walk slowly.
Suddenly, the noises of shouting arise.
In the tube-shaped apartment building, the doors of all the rooms are opened.
Armored soldiers wearing iron helmets walk out of the rooms.
For a moment, Gao Ge even doubts whether he has travelled back to the ancient times. Luckily, he quickly comes to his senses and stops. Meng Jing is seriously freaked out. Compared to her, Xia Lu looks calmer.
Now Gao Ge eventually realizes what the pressure he felt before is.
Murderous intent.
Endless murderous intent.
The rusty smell is actually the decayed smell, which is different from being rotten.
The whole building is full of the armored soldiers, every one of whom looks pale and dull.
Gao Ge releases the arms of the two girls and takes a step forward. Raising his sword, he is well prepared.
The sound of drum beating comes again.
The soldiers, as if being vitalized, raise the weapons in their hands and roar loudly, marching towards Gao Ge, Xia Lu and Meng Jing.
Not uttering any words, Gao Ge has gone forward.
As he hits with the sword, the sword spirit surges.
The sword light becomes brighter and spreads away. His power of stars surges madly, stirring up gusts of air waves to swipe out the soldiers in front of them and then go back to the two girls to clear away the enemies.
No matter how many enemies he is faced with.
He will go forward anyway!
Gao Ge doesn"t know how many soldiers" ghosts wandering here or where the ghosts come from.
However, he has only one thought in mind.
To protect Meng Jing and Xia Lu!
What he can do is to use the sword in his hand to get rid of these ghosts.
