Chapter 5 Day : Isn’t it common to be tricked by Chu Xuan?
Dark night, waning moon.

On the wall, the evil ghost looked ferocious and wanted to devour people.

Under the wall, the protagonist was almost frightened to death.

Zhuang Boshi could feel the icy aura emanating from it, a chill that penetrated his clothes and reached his bones. A cruel smile played on the ghost's lips, as if it were enjoying Zhuang Boshi's terrified expression.

"Chu Xuan, save me!!!!" Zhuang Boshi screamed shrilly, then turned and ran, desperate to escape this eerie alley as quickly as possible. His heartbeat was so rapid that it felt like it was about to burst out of his chest. He repeatedly pressed the communicator in his hand, but there was no response.

【Finished, finished, finished, finished】

Zhuang Boshi turned around abruptly and rushed into the depths of the alley desperately. Every cell in his body seemed to be screaming to escape. The stimulation that evil spirits brought to ordinary people was too great. No wonder many people were frightened to the ground and unable to move when they saw evil spirits.

But he now knows that he must find Chu Xuan, otherwise he will never be able to escape Kayako's pursuit.

Giggle-cluck——

The sound of a ghost chasing him was terrifying. Zhuang Boshi turned around, but the ghost was moving incredibly fast. It was rapidly approaching, its figure becoming increasingly terrifying in the moonlight.

Zhuang Boshi looked around desperately, trying to find a glimmer of hope for escape. However, he was surrounded by walls and alleys, the moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, and the lights were covered by ghostly auras. This place seemed about to be swallowed by endless darkness.

Suddenly, Kayako appeared in front of Zhuang Boshi, her long hair messy and wild, each strand seemed to have life, fluttering with her movements. The long hair sometimes clung to her distorted face, and sometimes flew wildly, adding a bit of weirdness and horror.

These long hairs rushed towards Zhuang Boshi like countless dead branches. Just as they were about to touch him, a dazzling light suddenly emanated from his chest. This light, imbued with a solemn and sacred power, instantly shattered Kayako's form. Furthermore, accompanied by bursts of Buddhist chanting, the evil spirit that was about to slowly form was once again dispersed.

Zhuang Boshi slumped to the ground, as if pulled back from the brink of death, gasping for breath, his heart filled with an indescribable sense of relief. It felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained.

"Chu Xuan, you?!"

Just when he was about to breathe a sigh of relief and wanted to blame Chu Xuan, the strange sound rang out again, as if it was squeezed out from the throat, and it was like the sound of bones being broken but still crawling forward, which made people feel creepy.

Female ghosts in white crawled out from the surrounding alleys like creepers.

Zhuang Boshi was frightened and his face turned pale again.

"Directly the fourth wave?! Kayako, you can't afford to play with me!" Zhuang Boshi shouted in near despair, then picked up the communicator again: "Chu Xuan, if you don't show up, you bastard, wait for me to collect your body!"

It was not Chu Xuan's answer, but a violent explosion.

boom----

Almost instantly, the Suzuki that had been parked outside Kitada's house suddenly exploded with a deafening roar. Flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire night sky. The force of the blast froze the air around them, and a wave of heat washed over them.

The flames from the explosion quickly ignited the napalm surrounding the Grudge House, spreading rapidly. The entire house seemed to have transformed into a massive furnace, with walls crumbling and bricks and rubble raining down. The entire building, ravaged by the flames, crumbled before finally collapsing with a resounding explosion.

Zhuang Boshi didn't have time to pay attention to the notification from the Lord in his mind, because Kayako's clone before him didn't dissipate with the explosion of the haunted house. Instead, it suddenly let out a shrill scream and dimmed slightly, but it didn't disappear directly. In the American version of The Grudge, Kayako's house is not the lifeline of the evil spirit, but the shackles of the evil spirit. Now Zhuang Boshi has finally helped Kayako and destroyed these shackles.

Of course, the evil spirit would not thank him.

All the white ghosts looked at Zhuang Boshi, and the resentment in them was like a surging wave, making him feel like he was falling into an ice cellar and unable to move.

[Grudges, curses, and resentment are the basis for the existence of these evil spirits]

Zhuang Boshi smiled bitterly: "Chu Xuan, if you don't come out soon, I'm really going to die."

Suddenly, gunfire rang out.

Dozens of pale figures were instantly ripped apart by bullets. Chu Xuan leaped from the corner, firing non-stop with his Gauss pistols. His twin pistols were incredibly powerful, and each volley ripped a bowl-sized chunk off Kayako's clone. About three shots were enough to shatter a ghost. However, only a few of these fierce ghosts lunged at him; the rest twisted and crawled towards Zhuang Boshi.

"You brainless idiots, don't you know that your home was blown up by this heartless guy?" Zhuang Boshi was furious: "I'm a victim too, why are you staring at me? Go and kill him!"

Chu Xuan did not ignore Zhuang Boshi. His eyes were blank and he had already opened the genetic lock. With a slight shake of his hands, the pistol magazine fell to the ground, and the other two magazines were reloaded. Bullets were fired from all angles, but not a single ghost could break through three meters around Zhuang Boshi.

The sound of bullet casings hitting the ground kept coming, and a little green smoke floated out from the two thick pistols.

Finally, the last Kayako clone was shot in the head as it approached Zhuang Boshi.

Chu Xuan walked over to Zhuang Boshi, pulled him up, then turned and asked, "No prompts, so this isn't the last wave yet?"

Zhuang Boshi's legs trembled as he gritted his teeth and said, "You bastard!"

It is said that people's joys and sorrows are not the same. As a reader, I often laughed at Zheng Zha. Now it is his turn to be the target of Chu Xuan's harm. Zhuang Boshi can finally understand Zheng Zha.

"The Grudge was born out of hatred and has a certain ability to manipulate cause and effect, making it difficult to intentionally destroy with a purpose. Only unconscious destruction can truly achieve the goal. And you have the protection of Buddhist scriptures, so your safety can basically be guaranteed." Chu Xuan turned his head away and didn't look at Zhuang Boshi.

In The Grudge, Toyama Yuji goes to a haunted house with a gasoline barrel, intending to burn it down. However, during the process, he sees his grown-up daughter, Itsuki, secretly visiting the haunted house. He flees in despair, but of course, he still cannot escape Kayako's murder.

"You—if my brother Neos were here, he would definitely think things through carefully instead of relying on deception and fraud, using unsuspecting people as guinea pigs!"

Zhuang Boshi could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger. Now was not the time to be fussy. He should have considered this situation when he chose to work with Chu Xuan.

A light suddenly appeared in front, and a row of Japanese-style paper doors appeared in the alley. They looked like the entrance to a very ordinary house. Then the paper door slowly opened, and behind the paper door was an ordinary house room. A man and a woman were arguing about something inside.

It was the scene before Kayako's death. Blood gushed out, and the woman collapsed to the ground with her eyes wide open. The man didn't seem to stop, but instead, he continued to cut and dismember the woman's body. The woman's body convulsed and trembled, only her eyes staring intently at Zhuang Boshi and Chu Xuan. Her blood-stained face looked terrifyingly hideous.

Chu Xuan fired two shots tentatively, the bullets piercing through Takeo Saeki and Kayako's bodies as if attacking a phantom. His premonition told him there was nothing in sight: no objects approaching, no houses, not even the slightest sense of danger.

The fifth wave of The Grudge is coming!
