“That ghost seems to have disappeared.”

When Yang Jian cautiously retraced his steps, he didn’t see the ghost that had been chasing him.

Perhaps this is what they call “surviving a great calamity brings good fortune.”

As he opened the door and walked inside, Yang Jian suddenly froze.

It was a familiar hallway.

Turning around, he saw that it was the classroom he had escaped from earlier.

He had returned to the fifth floor classroom door.

“What’s going on? Isn’t that door connected to the bathroom?” Yang Jian felt increasingly bewildered.

“Cough, cough~!”

Suddenly, a weak and painful cough sounded.

“It’s you. How did you come out of the classroom?” A man wearing a windbreaker, with a pale and emaciated face, leaned against the hallway. His bloodshot eyes looked at Yang Jian with some vigilance.

“Zhou Zheng?” Yang Jian was taken aback.

“I don’t know what’s going on either. When I followed them out, a ghost grabbed me and dragged me into the bathroom. After finally finding my way out, I pushed open the door and found myself back here.”

“Really? That’s because of the Ghost Realm. It seems that thing doesn’t want you to leave.” Zhou Zheng’s gaze flickered. “However, there is only one fierce ghost in a Ghost Realm. That fierce ghost is the old man in the black robe, but he has already left. What you encountered should be a ghost slave.”

“What’s a ghost slave?” Yang Jian walked over and asked.

Zhou Zheng said, “It’s something that forms after a person killed by a fierce ghost in the Ghost Realm. Controlled by the ghost master, it unconditionally obeys the fierce ghost’s orders, just like a servant in an ancient landlord’s house. Therefore, it is named a ghost slave. However, it is not as terrifying as a fierce ghost, but it is still a great threat to ordinary people like you… Cough, cough. This Ghost Realm has only just appeared, and ghost slaves have already appeared. You are lucky to have made it out alive.”

“But now is not the time to talk about this. Your appearance here is just right.” He took out something similar to a walkie-talkie from his pocket.

“This is the satellite positioning phone that is standard for international criminal police. Take it and leave quickly. If you can get out of this ghostly place, someone will contact you afterwards. Just tell the person you meet the truth about what happened here.” Zhou Zheng said, his face showing a painful expression.

“Detective, what about you?” Yang Jian asked.

Zhou Zheng said, “I have reached my limit. When I was holding back the old man just now, I used too much of the fierce ghost’s power. That thing is about to revive. Those who can control the power of the fierce ghost are called ghost tamers, but ghosts will also gradually control people. Living in the world as an existence that is neither human nor ghost is already a kind of torture… Ah~!”

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly let out a painful scream and fell to the ground, struggling.

As he struggled, his loose windbreaker opened.

Yang Jian was taken aback. Underneath the windbreaker was a bulging belly, bigger than that of a pregnant woman. The belly was somewhat transparent, and inside it was a curled-up baby about the size of a four or five-year-old child.

The baby was a dark blue-black color all over, with sharp nails on its hands and black eyes without pupils. It wriggled and tore inside the belly, as if it wanted to tear open the belly and come out.

“What, what is this?”

“A ghost, a ghost baby. That’s what the files call it.”Zhou Zheng gritted his teeth in pain, “At first, it was only the size of a thumb inside my stomach. Every time I used the power of the fierce ghost, it grew a little. Even if I didn’t use it, it would still grow. The ghost baby ate up all my intestines and organs, and every day I have to endure the pain of being gnawed by it. Every night, I can’t sleep because of the pain…”

“But even now, my organs have been eaten up by this ghost baby, and only an empty belly is left. If an ordinary person were in my place, they would have died long ago. But I still can’t die. For me, living is a kind of pain and torture, and death is a kind of relief.”

“Go, take this phone and leave.”

He threw the phone out and shouted, “If you don’t leave now, the ghost baby will come out. Then there will be two fierce ghosts here, and you’ll find it even harder to get out.”

Yang Jian picked up the phone and looked at Zhou Zheng’s painful expression. He couldn’t help but touch his back. He had also experienced this kind of pain before.

A ghost tamer?

Has he become like Zhou Zheng?

“I’m sorry to disappoint you. The old man was too powerful, and I couldn’t hold the old ghost back. I can only take you students out of here. From now on, you’re on your own.”

Zhou Zheng saw Yang Jian pick up the phone and gave a bitter smile.

“Why did you stay at the beginning if you knew so much? If you had left earlier, you could have left safely. There was no need to stay here and die with us.”

“Because I am a criminal investigator and a ghost tamer. Only people like us can deal with ghosts. If we are afraid of death, this world will be finished… I do this job not only for the country and the people, but also for my family, for myself.”

Zhou Zheng’s mouth twitched, and his pain became more intense. He felt that he couldn’t hold on any longer and suddenly shouted, “What are you still doing here? Go, hurry!”

Yang Jian’s heart trembled and he didn’t dare to stay. He clenched the phone in his hand and turned to run.

“Oh, be careful of the student in your class named Fang Jing. I met him before, and he’s very strange, not normal… he doesn’t seem like a human, but I can’t be sure. You’d better stay away from him. I’ve already reported everything about him, and someone will investigate it in the future. Don’t believe what he says about the future. It’s impossible for anyone to come back from the future. The research institute has done experiments on this kind of thing.”

Zhou Zheng struggled in pain and shouted again.

“What?”

Yang Jian turned around in surprise to look at him.

“Ah~!”

Just as he turned around, a scream rang out. He saw Zhou Zheng’s belly torn open, and a dark green baby’s arm stretched out. Then the torn opening grew bigger and bigger… the head of the ghost baby inside poked out like a curious newborn child.

But the black eyes revealed a strange and evil nature.

“Go!”

Yang Jian was shocked and turned to run.

“Wow haha…”

As soon as he walked down the stairs, the creepy cry of the ghost echoed through the corridor behind him, as if announcing its arrival and appearance to the world.

The ghost baby slowly climbed out of Zhou Zheng’s body, and his swollen belly quickly deflated like a deflated balloon.

No blood flowed out, and even the organs couldn’t be seen, only some blackened flesh.As he had said before, his internal organs had already been eaten up by the ghost infant.

“Dad, Mom, I’m sorry…”

Zhou Zheng’s eyes gradually lost their luster, becoming dull and lifeless. His head tilted to one side, and his vitality disappeared, but his eyes were fixed on the ghost infant, slowly crawling towards the direction where Yang Jian had left.

The fourth floor, the third floor…

“Great, I didn’t get lost.”

At this moment, Yang Jian quickly walked down the stairs, feeling a bit of surprise in his heart.

Because he found that there was no longer any darkness shrouding the stairs. Although it was dim, everything was clear and there was no situation where the ghost hit the wall before.

Without darkness and getting lost, it would only take a few minutes to leave the school if everything was normal.

When he reached the second floor, he saw Zhang Wei, Miao Xiaoshan, and several other classmates walking back and forth on the corridor with a look of horror. They held their phones and turned on the flashlight, walking from one end of the corridor to the other, then turned around and walked back.

They had already done this several times.

It was like being trapped in some kind of illusion, unable to get out forever.

“No, something’s not right. It’s not that the ghost domain disappeared, or that the darkness has receded, but that I can see through all of this…” Yang Jian’s face changed slightly as he looked at the red eye on the back of his hand.

Could this be the ability of a ghost rider?

In that case, this eye was also…a ghost.

He remembered what Zhou Zheng had said before. The ghost infant in his stomach was only the size of a fingernail at first, but it grew so big later.

If that was the case, what would this ghost eye become in the end?

Would it also become a fierce ghost that would devour him?

Thinking of Zhou Zheng’s situation before, Yang Jian’s back felt cold, and he looked at the eye on the back of his hand with fear.

The joy of seeing through the ghost domain disappeared instantly.

“Even if I will be killed by this eye someday, that’s something for the future. The most important thing now is to leave this place.”

Yang Jian gritted his teeth and tried not to let himself think too much, then walked towards Zhang Wei and the others.

But in the eyes of Zhang Wei and the others, everything around them was still dark.

The light from their phone flashlights could only illuminate a meter away, and they couldn’t see anything farther.

“Zhang Wei, we’ve been walking for half an hour, and we still can’t get out. Will we be trapped here forever?” Miao Xiaoshan said nervously.

“That Zhou Zheng said this is the ghost domain. Do you know what the ghost domain is? Could there really be ghosts? Could what happened in the classroom be a paranormal event? If there really are ghosts, we might not be able to get out.” The other students spoke cautiously.

Zhang Wei said seriously, “Don’t worry, how could we be trapped here forever? That’s impossible. Believe me, in a few days, we’ll starve to death here. We won’t need a lifetime.”

“…”

At this point, you’re still saying such cold words.

Suddenly.

“Step, step, step~!” A series of footsteps came from the darkness.

“Who, who’s ahead?”

Zhang Wei became nervous in an instant, and the others were also trembling with fear.

“Don’t be nervous, it’s me, Yang Jian.”

Yang Jian’s voice came from the darkness.

“Stop, don’t come over, you said you’re Yang Jian, can you prove it? What if you’re a ghost in disguise?” Zhang Wei said.Yang Jian said, “Zhang Wei, can’t you stop being so talkative? It’s dangerous here. I can take you out. If you follow me, you won’t get lost.”

He came here specifically to save Zhang Wei and the others. If he didn’t save them, they would undoubtedly die here. Although he had a grudge with Fang Jing, he had no grudges with them.

In addition, two fierce ghosts appeared in the Ghost Domain, and their level of horror was unimaginable.

“Wait, if you’re really Yang Jian, then tell me what’s my English name. You can only answer once. If you answer wrong, you’re not human,” Zhang Weidao said.

“Wodejier Yingbangbang…” Yang Jian said.

Zhang Wei immediately breathed a sigh of relief. “It seems that it’s really you, not a ghost. You scared me. Luckily, I learned the secret code.”
