Chapter 547: 547, come out (second update)

Someone must be hiding there! Mo Qingyi took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the bramble, her voice trembling, "Come out, I can see you."

Still, no one answered her.

Mo Qingyi’s breathing grew increasingly rapid, her heart pounding faster and faster, "Come out, I really can see you! If you don’t come out, I’ll come over there!"

Just when Mo Qingyi thought there would be no answer, her classmates, Li Yong and Wang Lele, emerged from behind the bramble.

Li Yong said with a lack of interest, "Ah, this is really boring. We didn’t see a single ghost, and you found us so quickly."

Seeing the shock still evident on Mo Qingyi’s face, Wang Keke patted her on the shoulder with a smile, comforting her, "Don’t be scared, there are no such things as ghosts in this world. Look, Wang Keke and I were in the bramble for such a long time, and we’re totally fine, we didn’t see anything."

Seeing the two familiar faces, Mo Qingyi let out a sigh of relief and swallowed hard, "There are others we haven’t found yet, you two should come help me look."

The two boys nodded and followed Mo Qingyi, joking as they walked to try to ease her nervousness.

But Mo Qingyi’s mood didn’t relax at all, instead it was tense.

As the three of them passed a tombstone, a chilly breeze suddenly blew on their backs. Despite it being a hot June, it made them shiver with cold.

Mo Qingyi paused in her step, for she felt the black cat in her arms tense into a ’bow’ shape, its creepy cat eyes staring intently at the tombstone as if it might jump out of her arms at any moment in alert. The black cat was a clairvoyant creature; its eyes could see things invisible to humans.

There was something behind the tombstone!

At this thought, Mo Qingyi’s spirit was shaken! Her face turned ashen, and she stood rigidly, as if a spell had been cast upon her, unable to take another step.

A sense of chilling terror spread through her entire body!

The change in the black cat’s body became more and more apparent!

This feeling was truly terrifying. She knew that at any moment, a ghost might drift out from behind the tombstone, but she could do nothing, she couldn’t even run away! She could only watch with eyes wide open. At this moment, Mo Qingyi was drenched in cold sweat, wishing she could just pass out with her eyes closed!

The two boys following her noticed the change in Mo Qingyi and stopped too, asking, "Mo Qingyi, what’s wrong?"

The sky seemed to grow darker.

The clouds obscured not only the moon but also the stars, adding to the oppressive feeling in the air.

Seeing that Mo Qingyi didn’t respond, Wang Keke also called out.

"Mo Qingyi?"

Mo Qingyi stared blankly at the tombstone, her usually bright eyes now devoid of their usual luster, filled with intense fear. It was as if she didn’t hear the calls of the two, absorbed in her own world, her face deathly pale against the heavy night sky, which was rather unsettling and chilling to the bone.

Wang Keke, worried, reached out and pushed Mo Qingyi, "Hey! What’s wrong with you?"

Perhaps Mo Qingyi’s state had frightened the two boys, as their expressions shifted from initial indifference to now tense.

After all, they were standing in front of a grave of the dead.

Pushed by Wang Keke, Mo Qingyi staggered a few steps before coming to her senses. Holding the black cat tightly in her arms, her voice shook as she said, "There, there’s something over there, you, you didn’t see it?"

"No! What did you see? Li Yong, did you see anything?" After speaking, Wang Keke turned his gaze to Li Yong.

Li Yong shrugged helplessly, saying lightly, "I didn’t see anything either." With that, he patted Mo Qingyi on the shoulder, "You’re just too nervous. There are no ghosts in this world, relax a little."

Mo Qingyi’s lips trembled as she shook slightly, only managing to get her words out after a long time, "I, I saw... something on the tombstone smiling at me..."

At that, Li Yong and Wang Keke squinted, scrutinizing the tombstone carefully, but still saw nothing, "There’s nothing there, you must be seeing things. We didn’t see anything."

"There really is something. Believe me, it’s smiling at me..." Mo Qingyi’s voice now had a cry in it, and in extreme panic, she subconsciously reached out and clutched Li Yong’s wrist, her nails digging deep into his flesh.

Pain made Li Yong furrow his brows, but he didn’t say much, only murmuring comfortingly, "There’s really nothing there, try to relax, don’t be so tense."

"There is... there really is," Mo Qingyi said, her voice trembling, "it’s still there now..."

Both of the big boys thought that Mo Qingyi was just too nervous, which had led to hallucinations.

After all, how could there really be ghosts in this world?

"Stop scaring yourself, there’s nothing over there."

"Mo Qingyi, you seem so active in class, I didn’t expect you to be such a coward."

Just then.

"Giggle giggle..." A sinister and penetrating laugh came from behind the tombstones.

It echoed distinctly in the little woods.

It made one’s skin crawl, shivering without being cold.

The air suddenly quieted down, as the two big boys looked at each other, both seeing disbelief and panic in the other’s eyes.

"Don’t be afraid," Li Yong tried hard to calm himself down, "There are no ghosts in this world, it must be other students playing a trick on us."

Wang Keke echoed, "Right, right, it has to be that."

"Chen Li, is that you?" Li Yong asked.

No one in the air responded.

"Li Jiaqi? Come out, stop scaring people, we know it’s you."

Still, no one responded.

A more horrific atmosphere began to spread through the air.

The two atheist big boys were getting tense too, the pitch-black environment only adding to the fear in their hearts.

At that moment, an even colder female voice came from behind the tombstones.

"It’s so cold down here... so cold... I want you to come down and keep me company..."

Miserably, it traveled through the eerie air into the ears of the three.

Now, the two big boys were truly scared! Their faces were pale as sheets, and their pupils shrank with fear!

The darkness was like a demon from hell, emitting a sinister and decaying breath, enveloping the woods and chilling to the bone.

Li Yong swallowed and, mustering his courage, said, "Who’s there? Stop playing the ghost! Come out now!"

"Giggle giggle..."

In this silent space, all that responded to him was a miserably penetrating laugh.

Wang Keke was so frightened that he hid directly behind Li Yong and Mo Qingyi, his body trembling. He couldn’t stay in this terrifying atmosphere for another minute, he just wanted to leave immediately.

"Don’t be scared!" Li Yong extended his hand to protect the two behind him, "There are no ghosts in this world. You two stand here, I’ll go and check."

Compared to the terrified Mo Qingyi and Wang Keke, Li Yong was relatively calm. Although scared, he still firmly believed this must be other students playing a joke on them.

"Don’t go, I’m scared!" Wang Keke reached out to grab Li Yong’s sleeve, his voice trembling.

No matter how mentally strong a person is, once their defenses are completely broken, they become extremely vulnerable.

"Aren’t you ashamed, being such a big boy and yet so scared?" Li Yong shook off Wang Keke’s hand, "If you’re scared, you can come with me."

Wang Keke swallowed, too frightened to do anything but take a step back, "You go... I’ll stay here."

Mo Qingyi stood still, clutching a black cat, her face full of terror.

Li Yong carefully approached the tombstones; the closer he got to them, the higher his heart leaped, a layer of sweat breaking out in his palms!

Just as their prank was about to be exposed, the two hiding behind the tombstone were also getting nervous. They had intended to give these three a good scare, but they hadn’t expected Li Yong to be so bold!

Boring! Dull!

The pair emerged from behind the tombstone without much enthusiasm. Chen Li brushed the dirt off her body and said, "Li Yong, I didn’t see that coming. You’ve got quite the nerve! Much stronger than those other two cowards!"

But Li Yong acted as if he didn’t see Chen Li and Li Jiaqi at all, continuing cautiously toward the tombstone. He took out his cellphone, switched on the flashlight, and called, "Who’s there? Who’s hiding? Come out now."

"Li Yong! Stop scaring people! We were just playing a joke on you!" Chen Li and Li Jiaqi walked toward Li Yong.

Still, Li Yong acted as if he didn’t see them.

What was even more strange was that the air was once again filled with a "giggling" laughter.

Chen Li and Li Jiaqi looked at each other, their pupils shrinking with fear, seeing terror in each other’s eyes.

This time, the horrifying laughter hadn’t come from either of them.

And Li Yong’s reaction was even more horrifying to them. They were standing right in front of him, alive and well, but Li Yong just couldn’t see them! In desperation, Chen Li reached out to shake Li Yong awake, but her fingers passed right through his body!

At this, Chen Li and Li Jiaqi were completely panicked!

"Ah!" The two of them screamed in terror!

All of a sudden, they remembered the content of this game: the player being covered by Ghost-covered Eyes is taken to another world, which is why people from this world can’t see them!

Li Jiaqi, terrified, clutched Chen Li’s arm, crying, "What do we do? Chen Li, what do we do? There really are ghosts, we can’t get out..."

But Li Yong simply walked right through them and kept moving toward the tombstone.

"Ah!"

Li Yong was startled by the scene behind the tombstone! He fell sitting straight into the mud! His face drained of color! Terrified and aghast!

It was horrifying! Li Yong would never forget what he saw behind the tombstone for as long as he lived!

Seeing this, Mo Qingyi and Wang Keke hurried to Li Yong’s side. Wang Keke’s voice trembled as she asked, "What, what, what happened? What did you see?"

Li Yong’s hands shook as he pointed at the tombstone, stammering, unable to utter a word.

Chen Li and Li Jiaqi were filled with even more horror; they had just been hiding behind the tombstone, and there was clearly nothing there. So what could have scared Li Yong like that?

"Meow!" A sharp scream! Piercingly loud!

The black cat sprang from Mo Qingyi’s arms and darted straight toward the tombstone!

"Wooh—"

In the dark night, the black cat arched its back and faced off against the tombstone, making an eerie noise!

Everyone was terrified, collapsing in a heap on the ground, supporting themselves with their hands and shuffling backward...

Utterly terrified!

In the end, they were all just teenagers. Faced with such an event, they had no ability to resist; all they could feel was fear.

Chen Li and Li Jiaqi held each other’s hands tightly, afraid to let go. Their palms were sweaty with anxiety. They were scared that once they let go, they would never see each other again; at least they had each other for solace in this way.

"What do we do now?" Li Jiaqi asked Chen Li amidst tears.

Chen Li, remaining relatively calm, replied, "Let’s get out of here first! Maybe they’re the ones covered with Ghost-covered Eyes!"

"Right, right, right," Li Jiaqi nodded incessantly, "let’s get going quickly!"

Hand in hand, the two of them ran as fast as they could toward the edge of the forest!

But no matter how fast the two of them ran, they could never escape the forest; they were just running in circles!

"What do we do, what do we do?" Li Jiaqi completely broke down! She started crying on the spot, "Mom and Dad, I miss you so much! Please come and save me!"

It was only now that she remembered the goodness of her parents.

Chen Li was also very afraid! She regretted playing this game more than once!

If given another chance, she definitely wouldn’t have mocked Mo Qingyi; instead, she would have joined Mo Qingyi in opposing this game! Could it be that they were truly trapped by Ghost-covered Eyes and couldn’t find their way out?

The sound echoing in Chen Li’s ears was Li Jiaqi’s crying. Chen Li was both frightened and annoyed, "Enough! Stop crying! Is crying going to solve anything?"

Perhaps frightened by Chen Li, Li Jiaqi’s crying suddenly stopped with only intermittent sobs remaining, "Li Li... what do we do now?"

Chen Li took a deep breath and analyzed the situation coldly, asking, "Do you have your phone with you?"

Upon hearing this, Li Jiaqi hurriedly reached for her pocket, "Brought it, brought it."

Chen Li’s spirits lifted, as if she had grasped a lifeline, reducing her panic slightly, "Good, give me the phone."

With a phone, they could ask for help from the outside world.

Li Jiaqi was scared out of her wits, her ability to think had left her, she just fumbled tremblingly for her pocket, took out the phone, and handed it to Chen Li.

Chen Li took the phone, her hands shaking, and quickly entered a familiar string of numbers, making a call, but the only response was the incessant busy signal.

Once, twice, thrice, the same each time.

Chen Li became panicked, and then dialed the emergency services, but the response was still only endless busy signals.

How, how could this be? Were they really trapped here? Could it be that they really couldn’t get out?

A "clatter" sound and the phone fell to the ground.

"Let’s go, we can definitely find a way out," Chen Li said, pulling Li Jiaqi as they staggered forward, knowing well they couldn’t escape yet refusing to give up.

As they walked, they once again came upon the gravesite. This time, Mo Qingyi, Li Yong, and Wang Keke were nowhere to be seen; in the sinister forest, only a bizarre grave remained.

"Let’s go, let’s go take a look there; maybe we can use the tombstone to return to the world from before." After all, it was at that place where they had been originally trapped by Ghost-covered Eyes and brought into this odd space.

Fear had drained all of their strength, and they supported each other, dragging their heavy steps, moving toward the back of the tombstone one step at a time.

When they finally arrived at the tombstone and saw what was hidden behind it, they screamed in terror and fell to the ground!

They saw—

Behind the tombstone was the unmistakable figure of a human skeleton! Its ghastly, white skull was grinning at them with a sinister smile!

Even though it clearly had no eyes, it somehow gave the chilling illusion of staring straight at you!

The two were extremely horrified. It turned out that they had been sitting on this skeleton all along!

"What do we do? What do we do, Li Li? We’re doomed! We’re really doomed this time!" Li Jiaqi hugged Chen Li’s arm, crying loudly.

Chen Li sat there with a wooden expression, her body stiff as a rock! Only her heart was pounding fiercely!

On the other side, Miao Xinran also decided to stop hiding.

She stepped out from behind the tree, feeling that something was not quite right.

Because the woods were really too quiet, eerily quiet! There were some faint footsteps before, but now, there wasn’t a sound at all. The grove wasn’t large; there were nine of them in total. Even if eight people were hiding, it shouldn’t be completely silent!

"Qingyi," Miao Xinran called out loudly.

"Qingyi—" The echo of Miao Xinran’s voice resonated through the forest, one voice after another, filled with
