Xuantian Division, one of the Ten Divisions of Daxia, is an official name that often appears in the news, just like Changye Division. Therefore, when people heard this name, they realized that something was wrong.

If you encounter Xuan Tiansi in life, it often means that you have either encountered a ghost or are being targeted by a ghost.

"What on earth is going on?" Yu Haiqing's legs felt weak after seeing the dead body.

Qin Xuezao shook his head: "I don't know either. After opening the door, just..."

"It's not a coincidence that Investigator Xuantiansi died here out of nowhere." Bai Yu looked calm. There was nothing scary about seeing a corpse, although others seemed a little uncomfortable with it.

"What are you doing?" Su Ruo asked.

"In an emergency, we must act swiftly..." Bai Yu opened the package, took out a stack of talismans, and handed them to Su Ruoji, who was standing beside him. He instructed, "Stick these talismans on the doors and windows. One per wall is enough...Stick them all on, don't miss any! Otherwise, something unclean might get in."

"Unclean things?" Ying Yuhuai said with an unpleasant expression, "Are you talking about... ghosts?"

"The Xuantian Division only pursues demons and ghosts. If it's a demon, it's usually not an investigator. Investigators are only sent in when exploring dangerous areas." Bai Yu said, half truth and half falsehood: "So his original intention in coming here was to avoid an attack, but unfortunately he couldn't make it... I suspect this place has become a den of demons, so it's better to be safe. You all don't want to become food for the demons, do you?"

After this scare, several students immediately became proactive.

Bai Yu carried the body to the basement and put it in the freezer.

"It's not going well at first... I feel like I'm going to have to face death all over again." He said self-deprecatingly, closing the freezer. "I don't know how many times I have to reopen it."

Chapter 160 Death

"Now, we are in a den of ghosts."

"It is very difficult to escape from the ghost den because we currently do not understand its rules."

"It's nonsense to want to eliminate the ghost den, because the level of the ghost den master is at least level three."

Bai Yu looked at this group of boys and girls who were younger than himself.

"The investigators from Xuantian Division all died here, proving that this place is extremely dangerous."

"I only have one piece of advice for you. Everyone, stay in the villa and don't even think about leaving. Stay here and wait for rescue."

"The doors and windows are sealed with talismans. At least they are safe for the time being."

Su Ruo immediately raised her hand and asked, "Temporarily, how long?"

"After all, I'm not from Xuan Tiansi. I'm just guessing..." Bai Yu guessed, "This is temporary. Maybe three days, five days, or even a week. So you need to pay attention to the talisman. If it's damaged or the color fades, please replace it immediately."

"Everyone has extra talismans now, right?"

Six students raised their hands to indicate that they each had kept at least one talisman.

"If there's a shortage, let me know." Bai Yu touched his chin. "To prevent unexpected situations, I also suggest forming teams. Two teams are best. If one person is late, the other can notify the others in time."

This was also a strategy Bai Yu came up with to deal with emergencies.

Because it was written in the diary that even when the talismans sealed off the Summer Resort, people still died. No one knew what happened exactly, and it was speculated that there was a traitor among the six people.

But it's not certain yet.

"If we form teams of two, what about you?" Yu Haiqing asked.

"I can only play solo." Bai Yu replied, "I'll stay in the lobby. You can go back to your rooms to rest. But according to me, it's better to share a room if possible."

Yu Haiqing showed an embarrassment. According to the team formation... Ying Yuhuai and Lu Zhong were a couple's team, Qin Xuezhao and Su Ruo were a team, so only Yu Haiqing and Zhuang Dao were left in the same team.

It is really hard for a girl like her to live in the same room with a boy of the same age. Although they are friends and classmates, they don't have much affection for each other.

Zhuang Dao stood up at this moment and said, "I don't plan to team up with anyone. I'll stay in the room. Don't worry about me."

After saying that, he went upstairs, and soon there was the sound of the door closing.

"Mmmm, this guy is really..." Su Ruoji was very unhappy with this uncooperative attitude and couldn't help but clench his fists: "Is it time for him to reload?"

In extraordinary times, everyone should follow the group decision. Have they even forgotten the basic knowledge taught in school?

The other people also had their own emotions, but they didn't show it.

"Maybe he has other plans." Lu Zhong tried to smooth things over.

"What's the plan?"

"I'm not comfortable disclosing his privacy, but I can say this: Zhuang Dao has a unique talent, so perhaps he has a way to contact the outside world." Lu Zhong stopped talking. "But absolute silence is required. We should try not to disturb him."

This explanation is barely satisfactory.

Su Ruo immediately stood up and said, "How about this, I'll sleep in the hall too, teaming up with Mr. Bai. Hai Qing, you and Xue Zao can stay in the same room."

Qin Xuezao folded his arms and remained silent: "I don't have any opinion."

Bai Yu was a little surprised: "Is it suitable?"

"What's inappropriate about that?" Su Ruoji stretched lazily. "I've always been called a tomboy. As a girl, I must be manly enough. Besides, this is my villa, and you're my guest. How can I let you stay here alone? What if..."

She paused for a moment and revealed a subtle expression: "If something happens, it will be difficult for you to resist alone."

Bai Yu couldn't help laughing.

Su Ruo stamped her feet: "What's so funny?"

"No... I just think," Bai Yu smiled warmly, "you're a nice person."

Su Ruo was momentarily distracted by the other person's smile. Her toes twitched restlessly, and she turned her gaze to the side, her fingers unconsciously trying to find a pocket. But after sliding her fingers around her waist three or four times, she realized her shirt had no pockets, so she awkwardly laid it flat.

It's strange...it feels familiar.

Somehow, when she saw this smile, she couldn't have any doubts in her mind.

I even couldn't help but feel a liking for him.

Obviously, she was also worried about this outsider and needed to stay here to watch him, but she unconsciously revealed her flaws.

Bai Yu clapped his hands, indicating that it was time to end: "Go to bed early. Even if you can't sleep well, try to get some sleep."

It was around nine o'clock in the evening.

Following Bai Yu's suggestion, the four of them left in groups and went to their respective rooms.

What surprised Bai Yu was that Qin Xuezhao was unexpectedly quiet and calm. She didn't even seem to want to talk to him. Instead, Su Ruoji acted quite familiar.

Although they didn't know each other at all, Bai Yu couldn't find an opportunity to communicate with Qin Xuezao alone... He came in to save her, but he completely ignored him.

Woman, you have caught my attention.

After everyone left, Bai Yu began to clean up the tables and chairs. Fortunately, this was a sunken living room with a spacious sofa, which was enough for a nap.

"I just realized it." Bai Yu looked up: "There's still electricity?"

"The electricity here comes from a hydroelectric power station not far away. The lake stores water to generate electricity." Su Ruoji explained while sitting on another sofa, and then lay down lazily on his side.

"If you're tired, you can sleep. The living room here is very big."

"Need not……"

"Is it to look at me?" Bai Yu asked casually.

Su Ruoji opened her eyes wide, and for a moment she didn't know whether to answer or not. She could only say with little confidence: "You misunderstood."

...It's you now, why are you still misunderstanding?

Bai Yu naturally understood her thoughts and the tacit understanding of the others, so he simply laid it out: "We are strangers. It's understandable that you don't trust me, but in this den of evil, we are all in the same boat. As the only adult male here, I will take the responsibility of getting you out."

After saying this, he reminded: "There is still something I need to criticize you for."

"Criticize... me?" Su Ruoji was very surprised.

Bai Yu said in a serious tone, "If I really were a villain, you shouldn't be spying on me. Instead, you should stick with the others. First, you don't know my true strength. Second, you haven't received professional training. It's impossible for you to stare at me all night long. And if I make any small moves, can you really detect them in time?"

As he spoke, he turned over his palm and found a fruit knife in it.

Su Ruoji really couldn't see it clearly, but due to her personality, she said stubbornly: "It's just a fruit knife..."

Bai Yu shook his head and threw out another pair of scissors.

"It's just a pair of scissors..."

Bang-!

This time, what was thrown out was a machete.

Su Ruoji fell silent, staring at Bai Yu's hands, and asked curiously, "Are you a knife seller on credit? Or a kitchenware wholesaler?"

Bai Yu picked up a pillow and threw it at him, "I'm telling you seriously, don't be so frivolous... Next time you encounter a similar situation, you have to be more careful, remember?"

Su Ruoji's smile, showing eight teeth, was very healthy and contagious: "Hearing what you said, I feel relieved. You are definitely not a bad person."

"Nothing is certain." Bai Yu shook his head and said, "Only interests matter... You are still young, but it won't do you any harm to be more careful."

"I know, that's why I sleep with a knife."

"..."

"Put a pair of scissors under your pillow, too."

"..."

"In my pants too..."

"Go to sleep!"

The lights went out and silence fell all around.

Thick white fog filled the floor-to-ceiling doors and windows. Faintly, one could see a dark palm imprinted on the glass window, leaving a pale handprint.

But Bai Yu didn't sleep the whole night.

He drank a bottle of fatigue potion to ensure that he always had plenty of energy, so that he could see and hear everything in all directions. In the silence, except for the sound of breathing, he could perceive everything in the entire hall very clearly.

However, the thick and eerie white fog outside the window blocked perception.

The only thing he was sure of was that no one had entered or left the entire hall, and no one could have reached the second floor quietly while he was concentrating.

Even if it is the third level of transcendence, it is impossible. A mere third level cannot have skills such as space teleportation.

Because there is no early morning in the ghost cave, Bai Yu got up after confirming that it was six o'clock.

Unless a person has a special physical constitution, he or she does not need to sleep for a long time. A few hours are enough to fully restore his or her energy and physical strength.

After Bai Yu confirmed that nothing happened during the night, he woke up Su Ruoji. The latter went to the bathroom to wash up. After she finished washing up, Bai Yu asked her to go to the second floor to call someone, and then went into the kitchen to prepare a simple breakfast.

But it didn't take long before I knocked on the door to wake people up.

There was a burst of hurried footsteps coming from the second floor.

It was Lu Zhong, and he looked anxious: "Have you seen Yu'er?"

Ying Yuhuai disappeared.

Several people searched every room, even knocked on Zhuang Dao's door, searched everywhere, and even searched the basement, but they couldn't find Ying Yuhuai.

"Have you searched them all?"

"I've looked for it."

"All the doors and windows are locked. It's impossible for people to get out!"

Anxious, but with nowhere to turn.

Bai Yu had a bad feeling.

It wasn't until half past seven that the white mist dissipated a little.

"Look at the yard..." Yu Haiqing stood by the window, his eyes wide open, his hands covering his mouth, and he took two steps back, almost falling onto the mat.

In the yard outside the window, a headless corpse was lying there. It was already dead and was being eaten by a group of ghosts. Blood was splattered and its intestines were turned into nine pieces.

"Ah——!" Lu Zhong took a step forward.

Su Ruoji immediately tried to stop him: "Don't go over there, you will die!"

"Don't stop me!" Lu Zhong directly opened the blocked doors and windows and rushed towards the yard.

The scene in the diary was repeated again.

Just as Lu Zhong pushed open the French window, the ghosts waiting outside came out one after another, and among them there seemed to be a wandering evil ghost in red.

What happened next was chaos.

Without Xuan Tiansi's investigator, the red-clothed ghost rushed in and started killing people crazily.

Bai Yu felt a chill in his heart, and he had a heart-to-heart friendship with the other party. After his conscience was touched, he collapsed suddenly.
