Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 164 The Dark Wind
The sudden scream startled all three of them. Even Yang Yiyi, who had just been scaring others, shuddered, not to mention Zheng Yinping, who felt her legs go weak.

The calmest person was Li Yingluo, who looked the softest. She stood up and said excitedly:
"There's a ghost! Let's go check it out!"

"Wait, wait for me!"

I don’t know why this lady was so interested in ghosts. She dragged Zheng Yinping away, and Yang Yiyi quickly followed.

The three of them walked quickly out of the wing room and entered the main hall through a not very long corridor.

The bodyguards in the hall were facing a formidable enemy and drew their weapons one after another. When they heard the voices of Yang Yiyi and the other two, they immediately looked over with vigilant eyes.

Li Yingluo quickly asked:
"What happened?"

She sounded not only unafraid, but even a little excited, but no one answered her.

Including the escort leader Wang Zhen, there were a total of six people in their group. One of them was a young man under 20 years old, half-kneeling on the ground, soaked in water and shivering.

"There's a ghost! I saw it! There's a ghost!"

Seeing this, the escort leader Wang Zhen shouted at him:
"return!"

This escort leader has great internal strength, his voice is loud and his breath is long, like the sound of a golden bell.

After he shouted at him, the young man's eyes finally regained focus and he seemed to be a little more sober.

"Second son, what did you see? Tell me quickly."

"Captain Wang, when I went to relieve myself just now, I saw a ghostly light in the yard!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.

"Please tell me in detail where and what kind of will-o'-the-wisp is it."

"It's blue, not afraid of rain, and burning. It must be the dead in the Taoist temple coming to claim his life!"

"It's true that many people have died in this Taoist temple, but I'm telling you, Erzi, it's not uncommon to see ghost lights where there are dead people. There's something called phosphorus, which is found on dead people. That thing ignites without fire, and when it burns it's a ghost light."

This escort leader Wang is an old man, he has been to many places, and the will-o'-the-wisp can't scare him. He is also much more experienced than other escorts, and when he heard the will-o'-the-wisp, he knew that Erzi was just scaring himself.

The other escorts around also relaxed after hearing this, but at this time Erzi swallowed his saliva and said:
"Then, that will-o'-the-wisp would float across the yard. Isn't that strange?"

"What did you say? Will-o'-the-wisp can float?"

"Uh, yes, from left to right, passing the big incense burner in the middle of the yard, and it flew past in a flash."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhen remained silent. This was different from the normal will-o'-the-wisp he knew.

The other escort leaders felt a sinking feeling in their hearts when they saw this, thinking that this trip was ruined and they might have really encountered a ghost.

But some escorts still didn't believe it. They turned around and saw Yang Yiyi and the other two standing there looking around. They immediately drew their swords and shouted:

"Is it you guys who did this? I feel like it's definitely not right for three little girls to act alone in the wild!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the escorts pointed their weapons at Yang Yiyi and the other two, ready to start a fight if there was any disagreement.

"Don't spit on anyone!"

Li Yingluo shouted:
"We stay in the inner room all the time, so we don't have time to do anything!"

"You were here before we got here. Isn't that enough time?"

"enough!"

After all, the leader of the escorts had prestige. With a loud shout, the escorts stopped talking.

"Today's events are quite strange, so we should not jump to conclusions."

Wang Zhenbiao bowed to the three people:
"We are all rough people. Please forgive us for offending you with our words."

Now that they have apologized so much, continuing to argue will only make you look petty.

But Li Yingluo and Zheng Yinping could both hear that there was something else behind Master Wang Zhen's words. Only Yang Yiyi was still looking foolishly out of the gate to see where the will-o'-the-wisp was.

"I don't know whether this is true or not. The three girls are not here, so it is bound to arouse suspicion. I suggest that the girls move to the main hall." The two sides monitored each other, so they naturally felt more at ease.

It would not be a big deal if it were just this, but Li Chengxi could not speak casually, otherwise he would easily be heard by the escort.

The three of them looked at each other and nodded. Li Yingluo bowed and said:

"Okay, but we have to go back and pack our bags."

For example, the folding bed and summer quilt that Li Chengxi had just taken out had to be put away.

Seeing that the three men were so reasonable, the escort leader Wang Zhen also breathed a sigh of relief.

It is indeed abnormal for three girls to go out, but on the other hand, if three girls dare to go out, they must be skilled in martial arts.

With Wang Zhen's keen eyesight, he could naturally see that the three men were quite skilled in martial arts, and if they really started a fight, it would be bad.

In case they are here to rob the escort, it would be easier to discover them early under my nose. If not, the three of them with strong skills might be able to take care of them. It would be a win-win situation no matter how you think about it.

The three were about to turn around and go back to their room to pack up when suddenly a gust of wind blew open the door of the hall, and the bonfire lit by the escorts was blown out with two puffs, and the light dimmed in an instant.

"what!"

Almost at the same time, one of the escorts screamed, followed by a flash of swords and sabers.

"Don't move!"

Wang Zhen shouted loudly to calm the situation, and quickly took out a fire starter from his pocket and blew it to light it.

With this little light, one could see that the 'Second Son' who had just been kneeling on the ground and trembling was now leaning against the box, holding his neck, with bright red blood oozing from between his fingers.

"Boss, Boss! There must be a ghost! Just now a ghost scratched my neck!"

There was no one around except the escort, and no ghosts were seen, but everyone was acting as if they were facing a great enemy.

"Don't talk nonsense, let me see the wound."

The second son put down his hand with some trembling. Wang Zhen saw a wound on his neck that looked like it was cut by a sharp weapon. Fortunately, it did not damage the blood vessels. It just scraped a layer of skin, which looked scary.

"Boss, is there really a ghost? Am I doomed?"

The second son was terrified, his face turned pale and he cried:
"I still have my mother and my brothers and sisters to support. Am I going to fail?..."

"Stop talking nonsense. I think this wound is caused by a hidden weapon, not some ghost hand. You won't die."

The escort next to him signaled to Yang Yiyi and the other two with his eyes:

"Yes or no……"

"No, judging from the direction, the hidden weapon came from outside. It couldn't have been those three girls."

But if it was shot from outside, it would definitely fall to the ground. Turning around, he saw no hidden weapons on the floor of the hall, only a pile of withered yellow weeds growing from the cracks in the stone slabs.

Yang Yiyi also stretched her neck to look in the direction of the escort, and asked in a low voice:

"Brother Li, did you see what it was? Is there really a ghost?"

"I didn't see it clearly, so it's hard to say."

Monsters appear in martial arts scripts, and it is not uncommon to see ghosts appearing.

It’s just that what happened just now was too fast, and Li Chengxi really didn’t see anything.

All he saw was the door being blown open by the wind with a bang, and then the bodyguard covered his neck and screamed.

It is normal for ghosts to be invisible. Unless Li Chengxi pressed the alt key to highlight all the interactive objects and characters on the screen, it would be unlikely to be seen.

"In short, whether it's someone pretending to be a ghost or it's a real ghost, you should be more careful."

Apart from giving a few instructions, Li Chengxi had no other good ideas.
