Six Ways of Fumo

Chapter 22 Curiosity Kills People

As the saying goes, a soldier must be swift. Just when Wan Shugao was hesitating, the bamboo pole had already picked up Ding Ermiao's umbrella and exited the window.

That's all!Wan Shugao sighed inwardly.Perhaps, this was originally Ding Ermiao's plan to lure the enemy, and maybe everything was under his control.Anyway, Ding Ermiao had warned him to stay calm no matter what he saw.

After the umbrella was taken away, there was no movement in the dormitory.After a long time, it was already midnight. Wan Shugao's sleepiness gradually surged. He yawned and fell asleep in a daze.

However, just when Wan Shugao closed his eyes, the door of dormitory 414 opened without any wind.A white figure floated in and stood beside Wan Shugao's bed with a sneer on his face.The temperature in the entire room seemed to drop several degrees instantly.

Wan Shugao felt the change in temperature and couldn't help but twitch his calf.In the haze, he tried to open his eyes and saw that it was the ghost that came every night, standing bloody in front of his bed!

The white shirt worn by this ghost has been stained with blood. His head is half deflated, his mouth is holed and his chin is crooked, and one of his eyeballs hangs out of his eye socket.

"Give me back my life..." As soon as the ghost opened its mouth, another stream of blood dripped from its mouth.

"Help -!" Wan Shugao was so frightened that he had already forgotten Ding Ermiao's instructions and shouted.The frightened screams sounded particularly frightening in the silent night.But then he thought that Ding Ermiao was on the bed opposite, and Wan Shugao felt a little more at ease.

"Why are you so sneaky and disturbing the world of the underworld? Why don't you show yourself to me quickly!" Suddenly, Ding Ermiao's angry voice exploded out of thin air, like thunder.

Ding Ermiao was awakened by the cold air just now.Although he was sleeping soundly, his more than ten years of experience had made Ding Ermiao very sensitive to these evil spirits.He was aware of the ghost as soon as it entered the house.

The ghost that floated into the dormitory was startled when it heard the sound, and then it opened its hands and rushed towards Ding Ermiao's bed!

"Are you looking for death?" Ding Ermiao sneered and came to get his umbrella, preparing to slay demons and catch ghosts.

As soon as I touched it, there was nothing around me, and there was no trace of the umbrella.Tonight, apart from an umbrella, I didn't bring any magic weapon with me, and I didn't even have a single copper coin with me.

Ding Ermiao was horrified: "Who moved my umbrella?!"

At this time, the ghost figure had already rushed to the bedside, and was about to have a close contact with Ding Ermiao!

Although this ghost is not that powerful, as a Maoshan disciple, if he jumped at me, hugged me and started to fight, how could I lose my face?
"Take away your evil obstacle!" As soon as he said it, Ding Ermiao jumped up, made a finger gesture with his left hand, and pointed the two fingers of his right hand forward, aiming at the ghost's Yintang.

But Ding Ermiao forgot that this is the student dormitory of the Logistics College.There are bunk beds in the dormitory, which are different from ordinary beds.Ding Ermiao was so anxious that she jumped and hit the steel beam on the edge of the upper bunk.

"Bang——!" Ding Ermiao covered his forehead and let out a painful ouch.

Hearing Ding Ermiao's majestic shouts, Wan Shugao was overjoyed. The expert took action, and it seemed that he was saved.Unexpectedly, Ding Ermiao also screamed again and again, and Wan Shugao couldn't help but groan secretly in his heart.I wanted to get up and run away, but my body seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. Let alone running away, I couldn't even turn over.

Ding Ermiao hit the steel beam on the upper bunk and rolled back to the lower bunk.The ghostly figure pounced on him very quickly.Fortunately, Ding Ermiao was well-trained and could not panic. He grabbed the steel pipe at the head of the bed and spun around from the head of the bed. He had already changed positions and stood behind the ghost.

Something warm crawled down from his forehead. Ding Ermiao wiped it with his hand. Damn, it was all blood.

This time I was so embarrassed. If Master Qiu Sanpo found out, why didn't he take me back to the mountain and study for a few more years?Ding Ermiao was so angry that he drew a blood talisman on the heart of his right hand with his blood-stained fingers. Then he raised his hand and struck with a thunderbolt from his palm!

"Boom——!" Along with the sound of thunder, the fire suddenly burst out.

The thunderbolt in the palm missed the vital point and passed by the ghost's right shoulder.Even so, the ghost figure was shaken and did not dare to stay any longer. It floated out from the open window, leaving behind a shrill scream: "Hey...!"

Blood was still pouring from his forehead. Ding Ermiao didn't care about chasing the ghost. He took the pillow and covered the wound, then turned to look at Wan Shugao.Strangely enough, as soon as the ghost left, Wan Shugao's body immediately became active and he rolled out of bed.

"How is it? Have you caught that guy?" Wan Shugao turned on the light and asked eagerly.

Seeing that Wan Shugao didn't care about his injuries and instead inquired about the results of the battle first, Ding Ermiao became even more furious.He covered his forehead with one hand, sealed Wan Shugao's collar with the other, and roared: "Have you seen my umbrella?!" He asked while turning his head to search on the ground.

Wan Shugao was so strangled that he could hardly breathe. He waved his hands in a panic: "Boss... cough cough, I saw it. I saw a bamboo pole sticking out of the window and stealing your umbrella... cough cough ."

"Then why don't you wake me up?" Ding Ermiao roared angrily.

Wan Shugao looked innocent, "Didn't you say, 'Don't say anything when you see anything!'?"

"You...? I...!" Ding Ermiao almost spat out blood: "That's my magic weapon!"

"Ah——,ah...!"

In the midst of the chaos, several screams suddenly came from the other end of the corridor.Judging from the sound, it seemed to be coming from Wan Shugao's roommate Pai Gu and others.

"No!" Ding Ermiao let go of Wan Shugao's neck, opened the door and rushed out.In the corridor, under the bright lights, Spare Ribs, Glasses and Fatty were huddled together in the corner, shivering.

On the ground beside them, Ding Ermiao's yellow cloth umbrella was placed.

Ding Ermiao took a few steps forward, picked up the umbrella and took a look, then breathed a sigh of relief.Fortunately, the umbrella was intact.

Wan Shugao also ran out, stared at Pai Gu and the others and asked, "What's wrong with you? Didn't I tell you not to come back?"

Pai Gu and the others were shocked and said tremblingly: "We, we... also saw ghosts!"

Pang Dun nodded desperately and added: "I just heard shouting in the dormitory, so we came over to take a look. Who knew we just met that ghost coming out of the window. He, he... was covered in blood, with only half of his head. And there’s an eyeball hanging out. So, so scary!”

"I have long said that there is a ghost, but you don't believe it!" Wan Shugao shouted with a bit of schadenfreude in his voice.

Ding Ermiao waved her hand, interrupting Wan Shugao's words. His cold eyes swept across the faces of Pai Gu and others, and asked in a deep voice: "I just want to know why my umbrella is here with you?"

Pai Gu and the others looked at each other and stood up hesitantly.Pang Dun blinked, forced an awkward smile, and said: "Brother, I'm sorry, we were also curious, so we stole your umbrella from the window to observe. There is no harm in it."

"Curious? Do you know that curiosity can kill people?" Ding Ermiao was furious. He pulled the handle of the umbrella and pulled out a bright sword. The sword flower danced in a cold light, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Fatty's throat.
