Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 874 Creepy
The moment the shouts rang out, all the puppets seemed to receive some kind of signal, immediately scattering and remaining motionless, as if a pause button had been pressed.

Wu Xian's eyes darted around as he analyzed the current situation in his mind.

"So those two corpses in the tree were like sentinels, responsible for warning everyone present when danger was approaching."

"We shouldn't be thinking about that now. What exactly is coming?"

"The two corpses were hanging at the entrance on the second floor. Could it be that the security guard downstairs climbed up? No! The two corpses were facing away from the iron gate, their line of sight was directly facing..."

Wu Xian turned his head to look in the direction of the square and found that the prisoner who should have been hanging on the ceiling of the square had disappeared at some point!
This sent chills down Wu Xian's spine.

The prisoner could be anywhere, maybe right behind him right now!

They knew nothing about the prisoner's abilities. If she targeted Wu Xian, Wu Xian could at least get some information through her attack. But what if she targeted Chen Chao and the other two?

We can't let people keep dying until we find a way to revive the newcomers.

Just as Wu Xian was at his wit's end, all the nearby dolls exhaled ash from their mouths. This ash formed characters of various sizes, all of which conveyed the same sentence:

Do not move!
"Don't move... Ah, is that so!"

"When we went up to the second floor, the dolls didn't move at all, not to deceive us, but to avoid any potential danger."

"The imprisoned woman placed the residents' spirits into the dolls, naturally intending for the residents to live like the dolls, and the dolls should not act on their own."

"In other words, as long as we stay still like the puppets, we can get through the danger ahead!"

After figuring everything out, Wu Xian immediately made a judgment and whispered to the three newcomers, "Don't stand there! Quickly adjust your posture to one that allows you to stay still for a long time. No matter what happens, don't move a single finger!"

"If you move, you will die!"

After saying that, Wu Xian faced the square and sat cross-legged on the ground.

Chen Chao and Li Xiaohu followed suit, while Liu Nana simply ran to the roadside and lay down.

After doing all this, Wu Xian stared intently at the intersection. The street on the left side of the second floor was in a cross shape. Wu Xian and his group were currently on the left side, and the prisoner woman should be on her way.

Because the ceiling in the direction of the road is emitting an eerie red light!

This is also why Wu Xian dared to let the newcomers adjust their posture.

During the tense wait, a woman dressed in prison clothes appeared in Wu Xian's sight.

The woman's hair was disheveled, and her waist was completely sunken, so she could only crawl. These were likely injuries left from being beaten by the yamen runners.

An eerie red light emanated from the prisoner's back, coalescing into lines that led to the ceiling, making her look like a marionette. Chains, like caterpillar legs, hung from her chest, jingling as she crawled.

As soon as the prisoner climbed into the street, white ribbons fell from the ceiling and precisely fastened around the doll's neck.

Even Wu Xian, who remained motionless, could not escape.

The feeling of having a white silk ribbon around his throat made him extremely uncomfortable. He hated the feeling of being on the verge of death, like standing on the edge of a cliff with a malicious person standing behind him.

Wu Xian's life was in the hands of the prisoner woman. With just a little effort, she could hang him up like those empty-bellied corpses.

Even so, Wu Xian didn't even blink.

Lying on the ground, Liu Nana felt fortunate that she had chosen to lie on the ground, so that she wouldn't have to be bound by a white silk ribbon like the others.
Then, the white silk ribbon passed through her body and burned a ring around her neck.

In just a dozen seconds, the entire left-side corridor, whether filled with puppets or living people, was in a state of readiness to hang themselves.

The prisoner girl, like a centipede, climbed between the dolls, tapping on one doll and hitting another, as if admiring her own figurines.

The puppets had experienced this scene countless times, so not one of them moved an inch. Soon, the prisoner girl crawled up to Li Xiaohu's vicinity.

She tapped Li Xiaohu twice, getting a completely different feel, then crawled around in circles, bringing her face, which was covered by her hair, close to Li Xiaohu.

Li Xiaohu sensed something was wrong and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Upon seeing this, Wu Xian immediately realized something was wrong.

Even though he had already given instructions, it was still too much to ask newcomers who were experiencing this for the first time to remain completely still.

Fortunately, the body's instinctive trembling was not enough to trigger the prisoner's attack.

Next, the prisoner girl lifted her hair in front of Li Xiaohu, revealing an extremely distorted face beneath it. Her skin was purplish-blue with dense bleeding spots, and her tongue was sticking out and hanging down to her chin, with the elongated root of her tongue clearly visible.

Normally, Li Xiaohu would be terrified to see this.

But he couldn't see it at all.

Li Xiaohu knew he was a coward and couldn't stay still when he saw something scary, so he kept his eyes closed from the beginning!

The prisoner let down her hair, making a rustling sound, and crawled away from Li Xiaohu, then climbed onto Liu Nana's body, the cold corpse with chains pressed against Liu Nana.

Liu Nana doesn't mind getting close to pretty older women, but she politely declines these kinds of interactions.

She thought through all the happy things she had ever experienced in her life before she managed to stay still. After the prisoner climbed off her, there were human-shaped sweat stains on the bluestone slab beneath her.

Next up is Chen Chao.

The prisoner girl slipped her bare fingers inside his tracksuit, feeling the lines of Chen Chao's muscles with her broken fingertips.

There were several small pieces of flesh on her fingers. Feeling the small pieces of flesh sliding across his body, Chen Chao felt extremely uncomfortable, and large patches of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Then, the prisoner used her elongated tongue to lick away the sweat from his forehead, leaving behind a trail of foul-smelling saliva.

In that instant, Chen Chao's heart rate soared to 170!

His jaw clenched, his muscles twitched, and his head was spinning. He didn't even know how he managed to hold it in!
Fortunately, the prisoner did not make any further moves, otherwise he really would not have been able to stand it no matter what.

The last target was Wu Xian.

Wu Xian watched the prisoner crawl over with confidence. Since the three newcomers could hold back, he had no reason not to.

The prisoner first touched Wu Xian's body twice, then stared at Wu Xian's face for four or five seconds, and then stroked Wu Xian's curly hair backward as if petting a puppy.

This action was extremely insulting.

However, Wu Xian was able to endure it.

What almost made Wu Xian lose his temper was that the prisoner woman actually brought her twisted and terrifying face closer, and her bluish-black lips pursed up. The horrifying stench made Wu Xian dizzy.

For a moment, Wu Xian's mind went almost completely blank.

Then, a flood of information rushed in, and he began to weigh the pros and cons of killing the prisoner. His rationality nearly collapsed, and goosebumps rose all over his body.

The terror he had rarely felt in his recent visits to blessed places surged back into his heart.

At this moment, this prisoner was absolutely terrifying to him!

Just as the two were about to come into contact, and Wu Xian was about to suddenly attack the evil spirit, the prisoner suddenly took two steps back and then crawled away from Wu Xian in disgust.
