"here we go again!"

Ade suddenly pointed ahead, and the female ghost's figure appeared once again.

Having learned from her previous experience of being attacked, she wisely stayed at a distance and watched.

After Jung Lin-eun transformed into a female warrior and began her massacre, Ade, who initially thought she was a bit arrogant, now only regrets that he is not a girl and cannot hug her arm and show off their sisterly bond.

"Protect me." Tan Wenjie hugged Zheng Lin'en's arm.

Ade: "..."

Damn, that's shameless.

Just because someone is pretty doesn't mean you can fawn over them. Ugh, disgusting.

"Don't be afraid! Everyone said I would protect you." Zheng Lin'en comforted her softly. Right now, she was in the throes of murderous intent and needed a gentle, handsome man by her side to protect her.

She took a step forward and said to the female ghost, "Come and kill me all you want!"

The female ghost remained hesitant, as if looking for an opportunity to bypass Zheng Lin'en and plan to kill Tan Wenjie and Ade first.

Such a simple trick to lure the tiger away actually lured Zheng Lin'en away. She raised her sword and shouted "Ahhh!" as she charged forward.

Tan Wenjie and Ade, who were still standing there, exchanged a glance.

"Aren't you going to run?" X2
Suddenly, the female ghost appeared.

The gust of cold wind that it stirred up tousled their hair.

The female ghost vomited blood as she walked towards the two of them. She had appeared as if by teleportation just moments before, but now she staggered forward, her limbs seemingly borrowed and very uncoordinated.

Then, the female ghost ignored Ade.

"Oh!" Tan Wenjie pointed at Ade, looking as if he had made a major discovery.

Ade was anxious and helpless. He gritted his teeth and whispered, "Why aren't you running yet!"

"Roar!" The female ghost lunged at Tan Wenjie, but was punched in the mouth.

Female ghost: (;′Д｀)
He vomited even more blood, which seemed to be mixed with teeth.

Finally, curled up on the ground, what seemed like an ordinary, simple punch was something that a little devil of her level couldn't withstand, even without any magical power involved.

Fortunately, there are no gods in this world, otherwise just standing next to Tan Wenjie would have been enough to make the female ghost disappear.

A body of pure Yang, the body of a thunder god, the emperor of the underworld, a saint, an immortal, and so on—all these combined, placed in a world with a high degree of magical power, would only result in auspicious clouds and golden lotuses.

Ade, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed: "You, you, you!"

"Ahhhhh!" The shouts grew louder as they approached.

Zheng Lin'en charged back with her sword in hand, the short shuttle run leaving her breathless.

"Be careful!"

She looked at the female ghost curled up on the ground with a puzzled expression.

"What's up with her?"

He gently poked her with his sword, and the female ghost just howled.

“This, that…” Ade didn’t know how to explain.

“Ade has a relationship with her.” Tan Wenjie calmly betrayed the other party.

Ade: "?"

I haven't exposed you yet.

But thinking about it, it seems that my own problem is the biggest one.

"He pretended to be afraid of ghosts on purpose, but actually he wanted to take advantage of me!" Ade reported through gritted teeth.

Judging from the situation at the scene, it is more likely that Zheng Lin'en slashed herself with a sword.

Tan Wenjie looked at Ade with disdain and said, "See? Because you can't explain your own problems, you choose to slander other people's character. Give up. The more you slander me, the more upright I seem!"

He walked to Zheng Lin'en's side, took her small hand, and sought a sense of security.

Overwhelmed with protective instincts, Zheng Lin'en simply tightened her grip on Tan Wenjie's hand to give him a sense of security.

Seeing this, Ade spat inwardly, thinking to himself how shameless they were.

"roar~"

The female ghost struggled to get up.

With Zheng Lin'en severing the female ghost's head with a single sword stroke, the exorcism of the female ghost, which wasn't exactly sudden, was essentially "completed" at this stage.

"Senior Ade, are you hiding something from us?" Zheng Lin'en couldn't hold back any longer and asked first.

“I can’t say…” Ade looked conflicted.

A hand stained with black blood slowly pressed down on Ade's shoulder.

"Snapped!"

Zheng Lin'en struck that hand with her sword.

With a serious expression, she said, "You can tell me now."

“Actually, this was a premeditated sacrifice.” Ad glanced at the sword that had struck his shoulder but hadn’t moved.

The sword was only 0.01 centimeters away from his neck; his skin could already feel its cold sharpness, and goosebumps that were growing rapidly were faintly touching the blade.

“Every few years, someone has to die on the Ghost Bridge. And each year, not five, but six people participate in this game. There’s one extra person who makes a pact with the ghost. If he can’t complete the task, he’ll be trapped in her endless curse and fear.” Ade’s expression was conflicted. “I’ve tried to commit suicide, but I just can’t die… Hey, what are you doing?”

Ade saw Tan Wenjie roll up his sleeves, raise his fist, and walk towards him.

Even a female ghost couldn't withstand one of his punches; if he were to take one himself, he would surely die.

"So that's how it is." Zheng Lin'en moved the sword away.

The ghostly hand appeared the next moment and quickly climbed onto Ade's neck, forcing her to draw her sword again to drive it away.

The situation is somewhat awkward. If the sword leaves Ade's neck, the female ghost will come out and kill him. But if the sword remains on Ade's neck, Jung Lin-eun will be without a weapon.

In a stalemate.

"Look, a UFO!" Tan Wenjie exclaimed.

Zheng Lin'en turned her head in confusion: "Where? Where?"

Ade: "..."

Damn it, here we go again!

Wait, why did Jung Lin-eun get scammed again?

Also, where did that huge sword, which looks longer than a thigh, come from?

Ade watched helplessly as Tan Wenjie pulled a sword from behind his back, casually threw it on the ground, and after taking two steps back, said in a surprised tone, "There seems to be another sword here."

Turning around, Zheng Lin'en saw the large sword and exclaimed in surprise, "Huh, it looks real. How come I didn't see it before?"

Ade really wanted to say something, because there really wasn't anything on the ground just now.

Not only Ade, but even the female ghost crawling in the shadows in the corner was speechless.

It turns out I've been playing tricks on myself all along.

The next second, the other party suddenly said that they had discovered the location of the core body, and then brought Zheng Lin'en to kill the female ghost. They were not surprised at all.

Tan Wenjie, as if he could read minds, said, "It seems to be in that direction."

He was pointing to the location of the female ghost herself.

Female ghost: "..."

The female ghost, who had been indiscriminately slaughtering people in this world as a hunter to vent her resentment and anger, is now unable to adapt to her new identity. Before being played to death in a cat-and-mouse game, she has chosen to step forward.

“My name is Chen Xinhui.” The female ghost stood in front of the three people. “Decades ago, I had a boyfriend named Wang Jinlong, but my family did not agree to our relationship. So we agreed to elope together. However, while I was waiting for him, I was raped by five bastards. After I died, I was filled with resentment and began to kill people.”

When she arrives, if she can defeat the enemy, she indiscriminately kills innocent people; if she can't defeat them, she makes up grievances and tells everyone that she had a reason for harming people.

But the person she encountered today was different. Zheng Lin'en asked in return, "Why don't you kill those five people who harmed you to get revenge?"

Female ghost Chen Xinhui: "..."

There's no way to deny it.

So Chen Xinhui said, "You can kill me."

Her intention to surrender was very clear. Since she couldn't win, she might as well just kill herself to avoid being tortured and unable to die. Although the female ghost Chen Xinhui was speaking to Zheng Lin'en, her gaze secretly shifted to Tan Wenjie. She knew very well who was right.

“Okay, take us to your main body.” Zheng Lin’en nodded.

Chen Xinhui didn't move, but her gaze remained fixed on Tan Wenjie, and she repeated, "You can kill me."

"I said okay." Zheng Lin'en frowned. "Let's go."

Chen Xinhui continued to look at Tan Wenjie: "You can kill me."

Zheng Lin'en: "Why are you looking at him? I'm the one who decides."

Chen Xinhui: "You can kill me."

Now Zheng Lin'en suspects that the female ghost is not mentally sound, and wonders why she keeps looking at Tan Wenjie, who was so frightened that he kept shrinking into her arms.

“I can understand lip reading.” Tan Wenjie took the initiative to walk towards the female ghost and asked her in a low voice, “In your world, who is in control?”

"I."

"I want it."

“I am everything here,” said the female ghost Chen Xinhui. “The foundation of everything.”

Looking into Tan Wenjie's serious gaze, she understood that she either had to hand over everything, or even die would be difficult.

"How is it?" Zheng Lin'en asked worriedly, "Did you hear anything?"

"Yes, she said..."

Tan Wenjie has already learned the solution from the female ghost.

Replace Ade and become the object of the curse.

You are cursed by "Chen Xinhui" and must complete the ritual to sacrifice five people on time, otherwise you will face Chen Xinhui's vengeance.

You have gained entry to "Chen Xinhui's Dreamlike Ghost Bridge," which you can freely enter while you are asleep and dreaming.

As the female ghost Chen Xinhui placed the curse of the female ghost bridge on herself, he quickly turned his head and said, "I understand. She said there's a trash can on the left ahead. Cut it down and it'll be over."

With Jung Lin-eun's sword smashing the trash can, it all ended.

When he opened his eyes again, Tan Wenjie was still standing on the ghost bridge, with the ghost Chen Xinhui's hand carefully resting on his shoulder.

Photographer Ade looked at Tan Wenjie with a solemn expression, then shifted his gaze to the female ghost behind him.

The tone is heavy.

"you……"

He had a vague memory of everything in the dream, only knowing that he had had another nightmare.

And now it seems that I have broken free from the entanglement and curse of the terrifying female ghost.

But at the cost of others.

"Do you know anything else?" Tan Wenjie asked.

"what?"

Other supernatural legends.

“You…” Ade finally nodded, “I know.”

After handing his business card to Tan Wenjie, Ade said, "If it's inconvenient for you to contact me, come to the Ghost Bridge."

"Don't worry, I have someone who can contact you." Tan Wenjie pointed to the female ghost Chen Xinhui on his shoulder.

As a female ghost in this world, she can avoid being exposed as long as she is careful.

Actually, he's quite strong, which is good for helping with dirty and tiring work, and it also saves him some mana.

"Never mind, I will definitely stay in touch 24 hours a day."

Ade pointed to his machine, indicating that he still had to go to work.

Late at night, in a small hotel.

As a notorious wanted criminal, Tan Wenjie was unable to provide identification and could only stay temporarily in a small hotel.

He glanced at the small cards on the table.

"whispering sound!"

He couldn't even be bothered to look at that.

Tan Wenjie casually put the small card into his pocket, closed his eyes, and once again entered the ghost bridge world of Chen Xinhui.

Everyone, including Zheng Lin'en, was here, wandering around aimlessly.

They were all sacrifices, endlessly reincarnated in the world of the Ghost Bridge after death, searching for a chance to escape in each pursuit, but ultimately only failing.

Now, they haven't had their memories erased, nor are they being hunted by the female ghost, but they haven't gained freedom either.

Like a player who has passed the current level in a game but cannot interact to leave, I wandered aimlessly through Donghu University.

On the rooftop, Tan Wenjie and the female ghost Chen Xinhui looked down at them.

Tan Wenjie glanced at Zheng Lin'en; the pretty freshman in college was right up his alley.

There are no gods in this world, and therefore no reincarnation.

Even when he asked Chen Xinhui, she knew nothing about the world of "transcendence" after death.

It may turn into ashes and disappear without a trace, or perhaps there really is an afterlife or a next life.

“Train them well,” Tan Wenjie said. “Maybe they can become a decent force.”

"Yes."

When Tan Wenjie opened his eyes again, he made a phone call to Ade.

Ade's voice on the phone sounded like he had breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had been waiting by the phone the whole time.

Before Tan Wenjie could even speak, Ade began to spill the beans, explaining why he had become the female ghost's accomplice and how he had "harmed" others, completely engaging in self-reflection.

This includes his mental preparation for not wanting to harm others, his investigation of various materials, and his various mental journeys as a photographer named Ade.

"How much paranormal information have you investigated?" Tan Wenjie asked.

Ade, who had been explaining until his throat was dry, was taken aback when he heard this.

Didn't you hear me?

"I heard it, but it's not very important." Tan Wenjie picked at his ear.

What does it matter to me if others feel guilty?

“I know a place that’s rife with terrifying ghost stories,” Ad said. “The hospital! I’ve heard a lot about it, and even journalists have been investigating it for their jobs.”

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the hospital."

"But it's already past midnight."

"Then let her contact you."

Although Tam Man-kit didn't say who "she" was, Ade knew very well.

He hurriedly called out "Wait a minute," and quickly agreed.

Once the female ghost comes looking for him, things won't be so easy to talk to.

When Ade drove to the hospital, he found Tan Wenjie and the female ghost Chen Xinhui sitting side by side, squatting at the hospital entrance, idly blowing bubble gum.

“By the way, Ah Hui has something she wants you to help her with.” Tan Wenjie pointed to the female ghost beside him, “Have your reporters help her explain that she didn’t commit suicide for love, but was raped by five bastards.”

Ade nodded: "Definitely, definitely, absolutely!"

"Here you go." Tan Wenjie casually put a wad of cash into Ade's hand. "I won't let you come for nothing."

"This is... money?" Ade took the money and noticed a piece of paper tucked inside.

"I'll lend you a year of my life."

Dozens of them.

Not just one year, but five, ten, or even a hundred years.

"You!" Ade thought to himself that he had been tricked.

Tan Wenjie comforted him, "Don't worry, you only have a lifespan of a hundred years at most. Lending out a few thousand years of your lifespan will be no problem." (End of Chapter)
