Chapter 51 That's My Head
Su Qin's clone had been in a semi-conscious state for almost a week. The bus had stopped nine times and had not entered the real world since passing Dahai City. There had been no accidents during this time, and now there were only two stops left to reach the destination.
Suddenly, the bus braked sharply, almost throwing Su Qin's half-asleep clone off his seat, and his mind suddenly cleared.
"What happened? Why did it brake suddenly? Did the bus stall?"
This was the first time Su Qin's clone had encountered such a situation, and he was still a little confused, but he immediately prepared to get off the carriage.
He remembered clearly that once the bus stopped, all passengers had to get off, or something extremely terrifying would happen.
With a creak, the rear door opened without warning. Su Qin's clone, without thinking twice, immediately rushed out of the door and escaped the bus.
The ghost tamer sitting next to him saw him suddenly get off the bus in a panic. Although he didn't know what had happened, since this strange guy was in such a hurry to get off the bus, something serious must have happened. The bus suddenly stopping meant that there was probably some kind of problem with the bus, something so serious that this guy didn't want to face it.
The man in black immediately got off the bus and quickly moved away from it.
They got off the bus in an old, dilapidated village, surrounded by utter silence.
As soon as Su Qin's clone got off the carriage, he couldn't wait to release a ghost slave clone. His real body was hidden in the ghost slave clone's supernatural medium. Although he was just a clone, he didn't want to die either, because the clone's life was also a life.
This is a haunted place, where unknown and terrifying ghosts could appear at any time. Moreover, he clearly remembered that there were 7 ghosts on the bus. Now that the bus has stopped, not only will the people get off, but the ghosts will also get off. Without the eerie atmosphere of the bus, these ghosts will not be well-behaved. If you are not careful, you may trigger their killing patterns, which could be fatal.
"The female ghost tamer launched a supernatural attack earlier, but it didn't affect the main body hidden in the supernatural medium. That means I'm unlikely to be attacked. Even if this ghost slave clone dies, I can hide here and wait for the bus to restart."
However, once the ghost slave clone dies, the derived supernatural phenomenon will disappear within a minute, and the ghost slave clone must be released again.
However, killing this ghost slave clone won't be so easy.
The ghost slave clone that was released this time was not empty-handed. It was carrying a tightly wrapped golden body bag. It had already opened the outer layer, revealing the bulging body bag inside.
Inside is an extremely dangerous supernatural object, the very same ghost bell that attacks indiscriminately.
"That old sixth brother of the main body really gave me a problem. This thing can attack indiscriminately. Once it is released, everyone and ghosts around will suffer. I am no exception. Being a clone is really a miserable life!"
However, it seems we can't wait for the ghost bell to ring by itself; we need to think of another way.
At this moment, the ghosts on the bus were getting off one after another. These terrifying ghosts, whose killing patterns were unknown, were no longer suppressed by the bus and began to wander around. The balance of this desolate village seemed to be broken, and strange noises began to come from all around.
"Hehehe~ Hahaha..." The sounds of children laughing and playing could be heard all around, as if a group of children were laughing and playing.
But this is a haunted place, so where could children possibly play? The ghost slave's heart jumped.
Laughter echoed around, but nothing could be seen.
"This is really troublesome, it's one of those invisible ghosts again."
With a sizzle, the ghost slave clone opened the body bag, revealing the ghost bell inside. Since they couldn't find the ghost, they would use this indiscriminately attacking ghost bell to deal with it. Moreover, there were still ghosts wandering around after getting off the car, so releasing this bell was the best option.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, a series of faint thuds rang out from the surrounding darkness, as if something was rolling around.
The faint sounds of impact and rolling grew more rapid and closer to the ghost slave's clone, as if a group of unseen children were playing football around it.
The black-clad demon slayer who got out of the car looked around warily.
"Hey! Do you know something? Why did this bus suddenly stop? Did something happen? Why are we getting off? It seems like we're being watched by ghosts here. If we don't leave soon, we might all die here."
The man in black was truly at his wit's end. The vengeful ghosts around him were closing in and could trigger the killing pattern at any moment. Although he really didn't want to have too much contact with this strange guy, now that there were only the two of them left, he had no choice but to swallow his pride and ask the ghost slave clone.
The ghost slave clone merely gave him a meaningful look without offering any answer. This man in black was clearly riding the bus for the first time and knew nothing about it. Moreover, he was just a folk ghost tamer and had no connection with him. His life or death was none of the ghost slave clone's business. If possible, he could also turn him into a clone.
Or rather, from the very beginning, the life or death of this man in black was not within the scope of the ghost slave's consideration. The moment the ghost bell was taken out, it was destined to affect this unfortunate fellow.
The meaningful look in the ghost slave's clone sent chills down the spine of the man in black.
"A madman, a madman, this guy is definitely a madman. I have to get back to the bus right now, following this madman will definitely lead to a terrible death."
The man in black cursed and turned to run towards the bus, intending to immediately return to the bus to hide.
However, after running only two steps, he saw something round rolling towards him in the darkness, rolling to his feet, and he accidentally kicked it.
The round thing rolled back and forth on the ground, making a gurgling sound. The man in black stared at it and was immediately stunned, frozen in place, holding his breath.
It's a human head! The thing rolling on the ground is a human head, which he kicked and is rolling into the darkness, but he can still see the face rolling around.
That face was very familiar; it was clearly his own face.
Thump! Upon seeing that face, the man in black's mind went blank, his body stiffened, and he fell straight to the ground.
However, his stiff body had no head!
One second they were perfectly fine, but the next they were a headless corpse, their necks empty, and they had no idea how their heads disappeared.
The ghost slave clone watched from the side, completely bewildered.
"What happened? Was he attacked by a vengeful ghost? What's this pattern of killing? This guy didn't seem to do anything unusual just now, so how did his head suddenly disappear so mysteriously?"
Hehehe... Hahaha... The laughter around them seemed to increase, as if celebrating the man's death.
The ghost slave clone frowned, holding the ghost bell with its protruding mouth, standing still and not daring to make any rash moves, carefully recalling some details of the unfortunate man's last moments.
"The pattern of killing shouldn't be hearing laughter. I heard it too, but I wasn't attacked. This guy just spoke, then walked back, and then looked at something on the ground. So what kind of behavior would trigger the killing pattern?"
The ghost slave clone kept the details he had just seen firmly in mind, avoiding triggering the vengeful ghost's killing patterns. His purpose was merely to buy time and wait for the bus to return to normal; he did not need to fight this unknown vengeful ghost to the death.
Tap tap~ Tap tap
Heavy footsteps echoed in the darkness, stopping after a few steps before resuming their movements, repeating this pattern incessantly as they approached the location of the ghost slave's clone.
"This is terrible. It looks like we're surrounded by vengeful ghosts. This is going to be difficult."
The unknown vengeful ghost surrounded the surrounding area, trapping not only the ghost servant clone but also the vengeful ghosts who had disembarked from the vehicle. The area was gradually shrinking.
Being surrounded by ghosts is no joke; it will definitely not end well.
"We can't wait any longer. We have to take the initiative. Otherwise, even if the main body comes out, it may not be able to withstand so many vengeful ghosts."
However, this damned ghost bell only attacks at a fixed time every half hour, and now we can't wait for half an hour.
Hiding in a body bag? Definitely not. The original body would never allow that. Even if you escaped the attack of the vengeful ghost while trapped in a body bag, you might miss the chance to get on the bus.
Hiding underground won't work either; who knows what terrifying things might exist underground in this haunted place?
It seems I'll have to rely on this ghost bell. I wonder what will happen if I ring it myself?
The ghost bell's supernatural power is that it activates when the bell rings, and the ghost servant clone can't wait half an hour, so this risky method is the only option now.
The ghosts were less than three meters away from him; he had to act immediately.
"Hopefully, the ghost bell's power can suppress these evil spirits."
These vengeful ghosts aren't too terrifying. Only one of them has a pale yellow medium thread wrapped around its body, while the other ghosts have green medium threads. The ghost bell is quite terrifying, and launching an attack should be effective.
The ghost servant's clone aimed the bell at the fierce ghost wrapped in a yellow medium thread. He couldn't tell if these ghosts had hearing or if his actions would be effective; he could only try as much as he could.
The ghost servant clone held the ghost bell in its left hand, raised its right hand high, and then swung it forcefully, slamming it hard against the bell.
A dull, oppressive bell rang out, but the anticipated indiscriminate supernatural attack did not occur.
"Hmm? Could it be that this method won't work, and we really have to wait half an hour for the Ghost Bell to activate on its own?"
Let's try again. I refuse to believe we can't come up with a useful solution.
This ghost bell is clearly a supernatural item created by ghost hunters during the Republic of China era, and it must have a specific method of use.
The ghost servant clone, not believing in evil, struck the bell again. Instantly, the vengeful ghost whose mouth was pointed at the bell paused for a moment, and only slowly recovered after two seconds.
"It worked? But why wasn't I attacked?"
Just as the Ghost Servant clone was studying the Ghost Bell's supernatural phenomena, he suddenly felt something bump into his foot. It was round and chubby, and he subconsciously looked down to look.
"This is... a human head? Why does this look so familiar? Oh yeah, this is my head!"
How did my head end up on the ground? If my head is on the ground, then I…”
Normally, the corpse of the ghost slave's clone fell heavily to the ground, along with the ghost bell, which also struck the ground.
