Chapter 80: Chapter 80 Ghost House_1

You smiled and nodded, then turned to look at No. 72, Baojia Street.

"By the way, Mr. Liu, I’d like to ask you, are you familiar with the ghost in this house?"

Liu Chao nodded and then shook his head: "This villa was built by my grandfather’s generation; we used to be a fairly large family. However, due to some issues, we split up, and there has been no contact ever since. Although the villa is in my name, I have never lived there."

"Who used to live there, and when did the ghost appear?"

You had just finished speaking when Yang Kai added, "Male or female?"

"After the old man passed away, the house was left vacant. My financial situation used to be quite good, so I didn’t think about renting it out or selling it," Liu Chao paused, then continued, "Until two years ago, a friend of mine took a liking to this house and wanted to rent it for a while. But he ran out in a panic after just a few days, telling me that there were ghosts in the villa. At first, I didn’t believe him, but after accompanying him there once, I was scared out of my wits by something inside."

"Scared how?"

"Well, it made some horrifying sounds and bloody scenes, and after I was scared once, I never dared to enter again."

"Did you seek help during that time?" Wei Shuxian asked.

Liu Chao nodded: "Of course, but the people we found were all half-baked charlatans who were even more cowardly than I was."

At this point, Liu Chao couldn’t help but shake his head with a wry smile: "Honestly, I never expected to be so unlucky. My home was already in a mess, and then the old house was haunted by a ghost, I wonder if this is some kind of retribution."

"If it’s just about scaring people, then the ghost’s temperament isn’t too bad, and this will be easier to resolve." With that, you took the keys from Mr. Liu’s hands and said to Yang Kai and the other two beside you, "Let’s go."

"Are we really going in?" The girl hesitated as she saw the four of you stride boldly forward.

Yang Kai walked over with a grin: "Didn’t I tell you, as long as our president is here, ghosts and such are nothing to worry about. Let’s go, didn’t you say you wanted to stimulate your numb nerves just now?"

At this point, Yang Kai was already fantasizing about the little beauty screaming in fear and hiding in his arms; heh, the thought was quite thrilling.

"Click."

You used the key to open the heavy solid wood door; as soon as it opened, a chilly breeze blew out from inside, causing everyone but you to shiver.

"Who turned on the air conditioning here, it’s so cold?" Yang Kai shivered out loud.

"Everyone be careful," you looked back at the four and led the way in.

Actually, Yang Kai and the others didn’t need to come in, but after all, they were members of the supernatural detective society, and only by experiencing such things more could they be able to handle them flexibly in the future.

Essentially, people shouldn’t be afraid of ghosts, especially those without much cultivation, who can only use illusions to scare and confuse.

There are three fires burning over a person’s head and shoulders, known as the Samadhi True Fire. They represent the three souls of heaven, earth, and human. The stronger one’s physical constitution and the more resolute their mind, the more vigorous their Samadhi True Fire will be; under normal circumstances, ghosts would not dare to provoke such a person.

Among the four behind you, aside from the girl whose name you didn’t know brought by Yang Kai, the Samadhi True Fire of the other three was fairly strong. It would be difficult for ordinary yin energy to invade their bodies, and the ghost’s Illusion Technique would hardly have any effect.

"Bang!"

"Aah!"

You had just taken a few steps when the sound of a door slamming shut came from behind, and at the same time, you heard the scream of the girl beside Yang Kai.

"Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, it’s just the wind closing the door," Yang Kai quickly comforted the girl beside him.

The girl huddled close, her hands tightly clutching Yang Kai’s arm, looking very nervous.

After passing the entryway, there was the living room, which was fully furnished with items that looked aged.

According to Liu Chao, this place hadn’t been inhabited for quite some time, yet interestingly, you noticed that all the furniture was dust-free, as if someone had been living here all along.

"Giggle..."

After you entered the living room, a strange noise came from the staircase on the second floor.

The villa’s staircase was flush against the wall, and due to the lighting, it seemed somewhat gloomy.

"What, what was that noise?" The girl beside Yang Kai suddenly grew tense.

Wei Shuxian pushed his glasses up and said with a smile, "I’ve heard that noise several times before, when watching a movie from the island country called ’The Grudge.’ Whenever a ghost is about to appear, such a sound is produced."

"Don’t, don’t scare me," the girl said, gripping Yang Kai’s arm even tighter, causing her to cling to him as if she was trying to merge with his body.

Wei Shuxian gave Yang Kai a look, and Yang Kai responded with one of his own while signaling the number "3" with the fingers of his left hand.

You couldn’t help but chuckle at this, for that three signified three meals; Wei Shuxian had earned himself three free meals with just a simple sentence, truly a cost-effective deal!

"Giggle, giggle, giggle..."

The sound grew louder, and the girl beside Yang Kai suddenly screamed, "What is that!?"

Turning your heads towards the staircase, all four of you couldn’t help but gasp in shock, for there was something extremely horrifying sprawled at the top of the stairs.

It was a man, looking very thin, his arms and legs longer than those of an average person, entangled messily together.

"What is this thing?"

Yang Kai, wanting to demonstrate his courage, deliberately walked towards it.

"Don’t, don’t go over there!"

The girl pulled at Yang Kai, refusing to let him go.

"It’s okay, this thing must be an illusion."

Looking with your left eye, you immediately laughed and gave Wei Shuxian a meaningful look. Wei Shuxian and Liao Yong were first startled, then sneakily chuckled, understanding your intention.

Just as Yang Kai said, what was in front of him was an illusion; indeed, it was an illusion, but this illusion wasn’t limited to just visual, it also had tactile sensations!

Just as Yang Kai presumptuously prepared to burst the seemingly terrifying fantasy in front of the girl, the inhuman creature suddenly moved its limbs all at once, crawled down from above, and lunged straight at Yang Kai!

"Ahh—"

Seeing Yang Kai knocked down by the creature, the girl let out a piercing scream and instantly turned to run wildly towards the entrance.

"Bang!"

The door was slammed shut again, and you saw from a side window the girl screaming and running away.

If this were in a bustling area, it would surely draw the attention of onlookers, but this location was relatively secluded, and it seemed that everyone already knew about the haunted room and had grown accustomed to such screams.

"Old Shu, help me, quick!"
