Becoming Stronger After Death: I Keep Seeking Death in the World of the Universe.

Chapter 323 The Midnight Bell
107 Elm Street.

Xu Wang drove the mobile Pegasus quickly to the door and stopped.

The fish-loving boy named Billy jumped out of the back seat and pointed at the house in front and said, "My friend lives here. You said he was targeted by an evil spirit. Is that true?"

The fish-loving boy still looked a little incredulous.

Xu Wang also got off the motorcycle, looked up at the house in front of him, and nodded: "If your description of the video tape is correct, then this is most likely the case."

After that, Xu Wang looked at Billy and asked, "You said before that you went fishing seven days ago at night. Your friend also caught the videotape at night, right?"

Billy didn't know why the priest kept asking about these details.

But he still nodded affirmatively.

That was the first time he felt the warmth of a fish, and there was no way he could have remembered the time wrong.

"That's all right. Your friend is lucky. He still has time. He can wait for Johnny to come."

After hearing this, Xu Wang was no longer anxious.

According to the rules, the cursed videotape will only take your life after 7 days.

Until then, Billy's friends are safe for the time being.

Billy didn't know who Xu Wang was waiting for.

Until the sound of a motorcycle was heard again.

Johnny also came to the downstairs of the house on the motorcycle he used for performances.

"Boss, what did you call me for?"

Johnny stretched his neck and asked blankly.

Don't be fooled by his serious appearance, he is actually quite silly in character.

This is very similar to the movie version of Ghost Rider.

"I asked you to exorcise the demon. I need to stimulate you so that you can awaken the power in your body as soon as possible."

Xu Wang thought he was quite smart.

Since Johnny is his younger brother now.

Naturally, the sooner you awaken your power, the better.

Otherwise, if Johnny is asked to work in the future, he will always use his lack of ability as an excuse.

Johnny didn't think as much as Xu Wang.

Xu Wang is the boss, so naturally whatever he says is what goes.

And Johnny was also quite interested in the so-called exorcism.

Therefore, after hearing the reason why Xu Wang asked him to come here, he immediately got out of the car with full energy and followed Xu Wang towards the residential area in front.

"Boom boom boom!"

Standing outside the door, Xu Wang raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Soon a middle-aged woman came forward to open the door.

"Exorcism in the church!"

Xu Wang lifted the cross pendant on his chest and waved it in front of the woman, then he led his men into their home in a swagger.

The middle-aged woman was so taken for granted that she didn't react at first.

I thought Xu Wang was talking about FIB services.

"Hey! You guys!"

The woman raised her hand, intending to call Xu Wang and the others.

Fortunately, the fish-loving boy Billy followed closely behind and quickly called out to the woman, "Auntie, Auntie, I hired them to perform exorcisms. They are not bad people. They are really the priests from the town church."

This aunt knew Billy, but she still had some doubts about the so-called exorcism.

The rate of superstition among the American people is actually quite high.

Because many of them truly believe in ghosts and gods.

It is precisely because of this that the middle-aged woman increasingly does not want similar things to happen in her own home.

"Don't worry, auntie, we are professionals."

Xu Wang turned around and gave the aunt a thumbs up, revealing a cheerful smile: "I am a professional garbage collector, and he is a professional motorcycle stuntman."

Upon hearing this, Billy subconsciously complained: "Doesn't this have anything to do with exorcism?!"

They all knew Johnny Hotshot.

I actually know this professional motorcycle rider.

At this moment, the two suddenly felt that Xu Wang seemed unreliable as well.

But Xu Wang didn't care about that. He stood in the living room, looked around, and asked, "Where does your friend live?"

"On the second floor."

The fish-loving boy was worried, but he still led the way and quickly went up the stairs.

The middle-aged woman was worried and followed behind.

In fact, she was a little worried about her son's recent behavior.

These days, her son, who used to love playing and making noises, hasn't gone out for a long time, which really makes her worried.

Now that the priest from the church had come to her door, she became even more worried.

Sure enough, facing the still closed door at the end of the corridor, the aunt finally couldn't help but said, "He hasn't gone out for a few days. Apart from eating, he basically doesn't communicate with me. I have to work during the day and can't take care of him all the time."

"Hey! Kevin! It's me, Billy! Open the door!"

The fish-loving boy walked forward and started knocking on the door.

But after calling for a long time, there was no response from inside the room.

This made Billy and Kevin's mother a little anxious.

Xu Wang now has very good hearing and can clearly hear the movements in the room and confirm that Kevin is still alive.

Then he turned to Johnny next to him and said, "Go ahead and open the door."

Hearing this, Johnny pointed at himself.

Seeing Xu Wang nodded in confirmation, he took a deep breath and walked to the door with a serious expression.

Billy, who was knocking on the door, quickly stepped aside.

Looking at the door handle in front of him, Johnny, with an uncle-like face, had serious eyes.

Under the gaze of the three people in the corridor, he slowly raised his right hand and pointed it at the door handle, his eyes serious and earnest.

He looked as if he was trying to mobilize the hellfire in his body and use his power to melt the door lock.

Seeing Johnny's confident look, Billy and Kevin's mother also became nervous.

My heart suddenly rose to my throat.

They all seemed to be waiting for Johnny to cause some supernatural event.

But at this moment, Xu Wang suddenly stepped forward, raised his hand, grasped the door handle, gently turned it, and pushed it.

The wooden door was pushed open with a creaky sound.

Johnny and the other two in the corridor were stunned.

Xu Wang turned his head and looked at Johnny in confusion: "The door is not locked, what are you doing?"

Johnny was even more dumbfounded: "Didn't you ask me to open the door?"

Xu Wang said as a matter of course: "I'm the boss, of course you open the door."

Johnny: “…”

What Xu Wang said made so much sense that he was speechless.

"Alas...young people nowadays are so short-sighted."

Xu Wang shook his head in an air of being superior, sighed, and walked into the room first.

The room was dark.

The curtains were drawn and the lights were off.

Xu Wang first found the switch and turned on the light in the room.

Now everyone could finally see the layout of the room clearly.

A typical American small town youth layout.

There were scattered clothes, posters covering the walls, and a skateboard and guitar standing in the corner.

There is also a 12-inch CRT TV placed on the floor, facing the bed.

It is also commonly known as the big-butt TV.

People born before the millennium are very familiar with this thing, it is considered a childhood memory.

It was later replaced by thinner and thinner LCD TVs.

Many of the younger generation probably have no impression of it.

"Kevin! Kevin! How are you? Why don't you respond when I call you?"

Kevin's mother was a little anxious. She pushed Johnny aside, quickly entered the room, and found the young man Kevin, who was wearing headphones and huddled in the corner.

Kevin looked anxious.

His eyes were red, with thick dark circles under them, and his headphones were filled with uproarious heavy metal rock music.

It was not until my mother took away my headphones and pulled me up from the ground that I came to my senses.

"Mother……"

Kevin looked at his mother in front of him and murmured as if he was in another world: "Seven days...seven days...the time is up, the time is up! Mom, she is coming to find me! She is coming to find me!"

"Who? Who is coming to see you?"

When Kevin's mother saw Kevin like this, she felt distressed and worried.

"Phone!" Kevin suddenly screamed.

"Jingle Bell--!"

As soon as Kevin finished speaking, the wall-mounted phone in the corridor outside the door suddenly rang!
For a moment, it seemed as if a cold atmosphere enveloped the entire house.

As the phone rang more and more urgently, everyone except Xu Wang became nervous.

Xu Wang said excitedly, "The timing is just right. This is really The Ring. Johnny, go answer the phone and see what the little guy wants to say."

Johnny was suddenly assigned a task again, and he was obviously a little scared: "Me? I'll go?"

Xu Wang said as a matter of course: "Why don't I go? Kevin is the main target of the curse, and I have to protect Kevin here, so that the little ghost won't take advantage of him."

Johnny agreed with this.

Finally, I plucked up the courage, walked out of the room, and answered the phone outside the corridor.

"Hey?"

Johnny asked nervously.

"The seven days are up..."

A hoarse and piercing female voice came from the receiver.

Johnny felt uneasy when he heard this.

He replaced the receiver, turned around and jogged towards the room.

As she ran, she shouted, "She said it's time! It's time!"

The corridor was not long, but Johnny felt it was longer than the school's 1,000-meter track.

I always feel that if I run a little slower, I will be captured by some monsters behind me.

Quite insecure.

Xu Wang also understood Johnny's feelings at this moment.

When I was a child and was afraid of ghosts, the distance I had to run back to bed after turning off the lights was the most exciting moment.

Maybe the evil spirit wasn't coming for Johnny.

When Johnny ran all the way back to the room, nothing unexpected happened.

But the fear still made Johnny's heart beat fast.

The "boom, boom, boom" sound of the heartbeat seems to be right next to my ear.

"Father, are there really evil spirits? What should we do next?"

Billy also noticed that the atmosphere was a little strange and quickly squeezed next to Xu Wang.

Xu Wang's expression was quite calm, his eyes fixed on the small TV in the room: "Don't worry, she should be showing up soon."

In general.

In horror movies, when evil spirits do evil, they always choose to attack their targets when they are alone.

The main reason is that when there are too many people, the horror atmosphere will be easily reduced.

This is naturally not a good thing for horror movies.

Therefore, directors and editors will try their best to create various accidents to separate the protagonists.

But in the real world.

Powerful evil spirits obviously wouldn't care so much.

Samara, also known as Sadako Yamamura in the American version of "The Ring", is a very capable and vicious evil spirit.

Unlike other evil spirits, it must possess humans to exert its powerful abilities.

Even if Samara doesn't possess anyone, her power is terrifyingly strong.

Even if Xu Wang and the other three were standing here together, she was not afraid.

"Kakaka-"

The light bulb above the room suddenly began to flicker, as if it had poor contact.

"She's coming! She's coming!"

The cursed Kevin was the first to react. He jumped up in panic, shouting and trying to run away.

Fortunately, Kevin's mother hugged him tightly.

"Hey! Brother! Brother! Don't be nervous, we have a priest here. If you run away, you will be doomed!"

The fish-loving boy also hurried forward and grabbed Kevin.

Although he has a free sexual preference, his brain seems to be quite useful.

"Zizzi——!"

Just as the light bulb above his head was flashing wildly, the TV screen on the ground in front of Xu Wang suddenly lit up.

The TV screen is full of flickering noise.

There is no meaningful content.

More importantly.

Xu Wang even took a special look and found that the TV was not plugged into a power socket.

Apparently it was pulled out by Kevin.

But even so, it still didn't stop the evil spirit from making it light up.

"Interesting, it seems the Samara can also be used as a generator. I wonder if it's a universal model, or if it can only be used for TVs."

Xu Wang supported his chin with one hand, waiting for Samara's subsequent performance.

Before Xu Wang traveled through time, there were many ways to deal with Sadako circulating on the Internet.

For example, put two TVs face to face.

Let Sadako crawl around and make circles inside.

For example, he pointed the TV screen at the window of a tall building, and when Sadako climbed out, she would fall onto the building.

These ideas are quite interesting.

But if you think about it a little, you will know that it can't really have any effect on Sadako.

If only it were so easy to deal with a conceptual-level demon like Sadako.

When she was halfway out of the TV, she was stuck in the middle of the screen by the old pervert and couldn't move.

Therefore, Xu Wang did not intend to use evil methods to deal with Samara.

He wants to be upright and use righteous methods to exorcise the devil.

"bump!"

The light bulb above his head finally exploded because it couldn't bear the pressure!

The room was suddenly plunged into darkness, with only the faint light from the small television providing a small source of light.

Several people in the room were startled and cried out in surprise.

Then I heard a "rustling" sound.

Streams of well water flowed out from the TV screen, quickly soaking a large area of ​​the floor.

Under the gaze of the four people in the room.

The picture finally appeared on the TV screen.

In the blurry black and white picture, there appeared a forest and a well in the forest.

The TV screen flickered.

A female ghost with disheveled hair and wearing a dirty, tattered dress slowly crawled out of the well.

The ghost girl's hair was wet and twisted like seaweed and draped in front of her, completely blocking her face.

Just under the gaze of four people, he walked barefoot, step by step, towards the TV screen!

She was getting closer and closer, as if she could break through the TV screen and enter the real world at any time.

Everyone in the room became more and more nervous when they saw this, and their breathing became noticeably heavier.

Johnny and the other two slowly backed away, trying to get away from the TV.

Xu Wang still stood there, waiting for Samara to crawl out of the TV.

This scene is definitely a classic scene in horror movies.

Waiting for the little female ghost with gray skin and well water dripping all over her body to crawl out of the TV completely.

Xu Wang raised his hand cheerfully and greeted him: "Hey! Samara! I see that you are gifted and a rare talent. Are you interested in joining my team?
Food and accommodation are provided, and there are playmates of your own age who can be your friends. "

Samara twisted her neck with a "click".

He stared at Xu Wang through the black hair on the floor.

In the end, he simply ignored Xu Wang.

Her figure disappeared in an instant and appeared directly in front of Kevin!

This gave Kevin and the other two a big scare!

Before Samara could take action.

Xu Wang also reacted very quickly.

At the moment when Samara teleported, he turned around suddenly and reached out to grab the little ghost girl's shoulder.

With a sudden force, Samara was thrown back to the side of the TV, and a wardrobe was smashed to pieces!

Xu Wang shook his head regretfully: "There's nothing I can do. It looks like he's still a naughty kid. I have to beat him into submission first."

After saying this, Xu Wang took a step back, crossed his arms, and shouted, "Johnny! You go ahead!"

Johnny was originally watching the show, but was suddenly called by the boss. He was stunned: "Ah? I am here too?"
