The Mysterious Recovery of the Forgotten World

Chapter 207

In the ghost photo studio, on the stairs leading to the fourth floor, a stiff corpse sat in the middle of the steps, motionless, exuding a cold breath.

"ghost?"

Gu Li cautiously approached and patted Li Leping on the shoulder.

He didn't speak, because before knowing the details of the corpse, he regarded the corpse with the worst consideration.

Assuming that this corpse is a ghost, then avoiding talking, that is, maintaining the situation when they went upstairs is the most correct, and it is also one of the most effective ways to avoid the law of ghosts killing people.

Who knows if this ghost will stare at the person who made the sound?
Li Leping noticed this information from Gu Li's eyes.

At this moment, Li Leping's eyes flickered.

Is this just a dead body parked on the stairs, or a ghost?

He didn't know the answer either.

"Go and have a look."

Li Leping didn't turn around to retreat, but walked over boldly.

Here are the steps to go upstairs. On this narrow staircase, it is inevitable to pass the corpse, and there is no possibility of detours.

Besides, even if the corpse was really a ghost, as long as they didn't trigger the ghost's law of killing, there was basically no possibility of being targeted.

Even if they are really targeted, with their current strength, there is no possibility of confrontation.

Slowly, Li Leping leaned over.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Li Leping stopped.

As the distance got closer, the dim environment could no longer cover the whole body of the corpse, allowing Li Leping to see the corpse more clearly.

The corpse's hair was disheveled and its head was lowered, so Li Leping and Gu Li couldn't see the corpse's appearance because of the disheveled hair.

However, within sight, the skin color of this dead body with no signs of decay was exceptionally strange. The cold body color was neither the blue-gray color after several days of death, nor the purple-black color after many days of death.

The color of this corpse is an extremely weird off-white color. This weird off-white color is like a portrait of a person. It does not have any bright colors at all, let alone the skin color that a human body can have.

Incomprehensible, inexplicable.

Li Leping had no way of knowing why this corpse had such a strange complexion.

The only thing he can be sure of is that the dead body has not yet shown a terrifying side.

"Let's go upstairs first."

Not intending to provoke this strange corpse, Li Leping pondered for a moment and decided that he should continue upstairs.

This corpse should have been parked on this staircase for quite a long time, so it would be bad if you investigate rashly.

Without staying any longer, Li Leping approached the side of the stairs, turned his body sideways, and moved slowly, trying to avoid the corpse sitting on the steps blocking their way.

After seeing his movements, Gu Li behind him also understood what he meant.

Gu Li also leaned against the side of the stairs, turned sideways, and walked upstairs cautiously.

"Crunch—! Crunch—!"

The soft and rotten wooden steps make weird noises every time you lift your foot, and every time you step on it, the rickety decaying stairs seem to collapse at any time.

But Li Leping was not worried about whether the stairs would collapse.

His movements were neither fast nor slow, but they were smooth and orderly, and he quickly passed the corpse sitting on the steps.

But right now.

Just as Gu Li behind him was passing the corpse.

Suddenly.

As if some kind of switch had been triggered, the corpse suddenly raised its head at this moment.

The drooping head was raised at this moment, and the black hair scattered in front of his face covered his appearance, but through the hair, one could still see that the skin color of this person's face was also gray and white.

The corpse that raised its head did not stop, but quickly stretched out his cold, gray arms, and suddenly grabbed Gu Li who was passing by.

Great changes happened at this moment.

In an instant, the bone-chilling chill ran down Gu Li's right leg, penetrated the skin, and went straight to the forehead, making him shiver uncontrollably.

"I rely on?! Defrauded the corpse?!"

Gu Li's eyes widened, and his expression became astonished.

He subconsciously raised his left foot, ready to step on that ghost's head.

It is impossible for a human body to compete with a ghost, but Gu Li did not tell Li Leping that not only his left side face, but even his entire left side was entangled with that weird shadow puppet.

At this moment, he has half of his body, which belongs to Li Gui and himself.

However, just when Gu Li had already raised his foot.

The person sitting on the steps suddenly turned his head, facing Gu Li.

"What are you kidding?!"

Gu Li, who was about to make a move, stopped immediately, his left foot suddenly stopped in mid-air, his face was full of horror.

Next to him, Li Leping, who was also about to make a move, couldn't help being stunned at this moment, and the expression on his face became astonished.

Li Gui turned his head and raised his head stiffly.

The hair covering the face then fell to one side, revealing a grey-white face like a posthumous photo.

What made the two of them creepy was that this dead, expressionless face was somewhat similar in appearance to Gu Li.

The handsome face has sharp edges and corners, but it does not contain the slightest emotion of a living person.

If it wasn't for Gu Li himself standing next to Li Leping, I'm afraid Li Leping would have mistakenly thought that the source of this ghost was because Gu Li's portrait had become a spirit.

Compared to Li Leping's astonishment, Gu Li himself was naturally the most terrified.

Of course he knew that this face was not his own, but his father's, because the face of the ghost who turned his head was exactly the same as his father's face that had become increasingly blurred in his memory.

The appearance of the old father, who had been dead for nearly 20 years, was actually exactly the same as the appearance of the ghost in front of him.

But the problem is, Gu Li remembers very clearly that his father's body was cremated a long time ago, and the ashes are still placed in the cemetery. The father whose memory is becoming more and more blurred.

"Could it be that this ghost was caused by dismembering the ghost in his body before he died?"

Gu Li never thought that he would have the chance to meet his father again in this life, and in such a strange situation, he could see the traces left by his father on the face of a ghost.

This strange encounter made Gu Li feel a little dazed.

Only Li Leping next to him can stay awake, after all, this is Gu Li's father, not his.

"Do it directly."

Li Leping decided to do it now.

After Gu Li reacts, he will express his understanding.

But right now.

The person who turned his head, the ghost who grabbed Gu Li's thigh let go of his hand at this moment.

In his eyes, there was a vague look of a living person.

It was a feeling full of helplessness, as if he didn't want to see Gu Li here.
