Thriller Zone: From the Mental Hospital to the Ghostly World

Chapter 594 [Domain·2nd Gate] Yin-Yang Path (6)

Based on everything that had happened before, Feng Yao was almost certain that it was now the third day.

That means it's past midnight.

This means three things:

First, her death is imminent!

Second, if everything goes smoothly, then Liu Zi and Bai Shaohua have already started the red bowl ceremony.

three......

Chen Ji and Fei'er should have turned into paper figures by now!

But the sedan chair was so cramped that every time her legs involuntarily thrashed about, they would kick the two people on the other side, like kicking solid, heavy stones...

Instead of being as light and airy as paper being fluttered...

Feng Yao felt as if she had been doused with a bucket of cold water; goosebumps rose on her skin, and she instantly recalled all the strange things she had previously ignored:

Throughout the entire ordeal, she was being led by the two people opposite her, blaming herself for the "ghost blocking the sedan chair" incident.

Fei'er said, "The paper horse took the two children and they went straight in without being stopped by any ghosts."

Wu Hui's curse has ended. Of the remaining two curses, "the twins did not encounter any ghosts," so "they have nothing to do with Chen Jifeier."

But that's not right.

How could they possibly know?

They couldn't possibly know, because it was too detailed. If Chen Ji really knew what would happen on the way to the underworld, there was no reason for him not to tell!

Then, considering that they were frozen in the sedan chair, unwilling to move, as if glued to the seat to prevent being summoned away by something...

The harmonica also affected the two ghosts.

But it's unclear how they managed to fix themselves to the sedan chair.

so.....

So when did Chen Ji and Fei'er become ghosts?

The moment he got into the sedan chair?

Or later?

Where are the two of them now?

A flurry of thoughts flashed through Feng Yao's mind, but she had no time to think them through, instinctively grasping the key points:

The ghost did all that just so she would gouge out the ghost's eyes.

So, gouging out the ghost eye... is actually a dead end.

That is to say...

The harmonica, which was originally meant to kill her, ended up saving Feng Yao's life by taking control of her body.

Feng Yao felt a chill run down her spine.

She was just a hair's breadth away from having her eyes gouged out, and if the two ghosts inside the sedan chair had their wish granted, the consequence would have been certain death.

No wonder the ghosts, who had already left, returned!

Looking back now, before the harmonica appeared, the feeling of being watched she experienced ultimately belonged to Zhou Liang's powerful ghost...

Or were the two ghosts directly in front of her staring at her?

At this point, Feng Yao had basically deduced that the existence of the Ghost Eye and whether the ghosts outside were attacking might be directly related.

However, it was completely the opposite of what the two ghosts in the sedan chair said—

The existence of the Demon Eye prevents the demon horde from attacking directly!

But why?

Just then, the harmonica music grew louder and louder, and the ghost that had killed Huang Yue was getting closer and closer.

The melodious and sorrowful piano music kept stimulating Feng Yao's mind, making her twist and turn uncontrollably, trying to break free from Wu Hui's control.

A constant rustling sound rang out; the harmonica wasn't just controlling Feng Yao, but also all the ghosts present...

ghost.

correct!

Feng Yao suddenly had a flash of inspiration and realized the key point.

It's balance!

The ghost never actually attacked them...

It's because of balance.

Of the four people in the sedan chair, Wu Hui's previous actions have basically proven that she is safe and sound and alive.

Although Wu Hui and Feng Yao appear to be alive, due to the existence of the Ghost Eye, Feng Yao, like Huang Yue before her, is not strictly speaking human.

This is why the ghosts outside, despite touching her, didn't actually attack the sedan chair.

Then only Wu Hui was left in the sedan chair. The presence of a living person could be concealed or neutralized by the ghost eye.

There are four people in the sedan chair, but in reality there is one living person, two ghosts, and Ghost Eye, in a ratio of 1:3.

Once the ghost eye is gouged out, Feng Yao will return to her human form, and the balance will be broken, resulting in two people and two ghosts!

At that time, once the two ghosts in the sedan chair leave...

Feng Yao and Wu Hui will be as conspicuous as torches in the night among the ghosts.

At this point, Feng Yao fully understood the ghost's motive.

At the same time, she also deduced that the two ghosts in the sedan chair had gouged out her eyes themselves; otherwise, they wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to lure her into gouging out her own eyes.

But Wu Hui...

Does she know?

Just then, Chen Ji suddenly gasped, even with a hint of anger: "Wu Hui! Hurry, another ghost is coming!"

Feng Yao couldn't see the outside world, but almost at the same second that "Chen Ji" spoke, she heard a series of dragging footsteps coming from a distance.

A chill crept into the sedan chair, and an inexplicable instinct caused Feng Yao's body to tremble uncontrollably.

She felt it.

Chen Ji did not lie.

More ghosts, appearing from nowhere, gradually approached the group of sedan chairs.

wow——

wow——

A gust of cold wind blew by, carrying a faint smell of paper ash, which made people feel cold all over.

"......etc."

Wu Hui suddenly muttered something, her voice trembling slightly at the end, clearly influenced by the ghosts outside the sedan chair.

But she did not, as "Chen Ji" suggested, reach out and pluck Feng Yao's ghost eye, even though on the surface it seemed to be the only way to solve the problem.

"Wait a little longer, I can control her."

As a veteran of the domain, Wu Hui was indeed quite strong, and she firmly pinned Feng Yao down.

She paused, her tone both explaining and reassuring:

"Huang Yue's ghosts aren't A-level ghosts; they couldn't possibly suppress so many ghosts..."

"Therefore, the more ghosts it attracts, the weaker its control over Feng Yao becomes."

As soon as the words were spoken, the harmonica music suddenly trembled.

Just as Wu Hui had predicted, Feng Yao instantly felt that her urge to run out of the sedan chair had diminished considerably.

My heart couldn't help but move.

From the very beginning, Wu Hui refused to assist "Chen Ji and Fei'er," and even gouged out her own eyes...

She knew those two were ghosts!

But when did she find out?

Considering that Wu Hui suddenly asked Chen Ji for his opinion before the harmonica appeared, Feng Yao could be fairly certain that the other party had already suspected something at that time...

But back then, those two ghosts hadn't shown any weakness yet, had they?

Could it be that......

As the harmonica music slowed down again, Feng Yao's struggles weakened once more. Just then, she suddenly felt a cold sensation in her hand.

A thin, metallic object slid from Wu Hui's sleeve into her palm.

This is.....

A fountain pen.

Feng Yao immediately thought of the scene when Chen Ji smashed Bai Shaohua's [number eight ball].

Chen Ji's fountain pen!

Was it this pen that reminded Wu Hui?

Chen Ji always carried his pen with him, so the two ghosts in the sedan chair were actually Chen Ji and Fei'er's [true forms]...

In other words.

The real Chen Ji and Fei'er had their bodies swapped, just like on the first day.

They've already turned into paper figures.

To be precise...

call!

The wind kept blowing the curtain, making a soft rustling sound. Not far in front of the sedan chair, the two paper horses suddenly grunted.

Feng Yao gripped the pen tightly and hid it in her sleeve.

She got it.

The paper figures on the paper horses in front are Chen Ji and Fei'er.

However, it's different from the previous two days.

This time, they didn't even wait until midnight; the moment they stepped into the sedan chair, they were switched!

But at that moment, a soft sound suddenly came from the top of the sedan chair.

pat.

It looked like something had been thrown onto the roof of the sedan chair...

The next second, the entire sedan chair suddenly began to shake violently, as if it were being pushed and jostled by a pair of hands!

Suddenly, Feng Yao's head began to lift uncontrollably, stretching straight upwards—

Her heart sank suddenly.

The harmonica was thrown onto the roof of the sedan chair.

Snap...

And that also means.

Snap...

The paper sedan chair groaned as it lay on the verge of collapse.

Countless ghosts surged in from all directions like a tide, pressing against the thin paper sedan chair, pushing and climbing against each other, trying to snatch the harmonica from the top of the chair!
