Terrifying Heavens: I'll directly worship the Black Law of Fengdu!

Chapter 353 Souichi's Balloon

As Li Xuan slapped her, Yamano Reiko shuddered, and the breath she had just exhaled from her mouth and nose instantly receded!
The balloons holding the heads of people watching from the air immediately noticed Li Xuan's unusual behavior. They seemed to want to approach but dared not, and could only hover back and forth in the air...

Li Xuan whispered something to Li Xuan.

Reiko Yamano immediately understood. She went to the school's broadcasting room, turned on the microphone, and said: "Everyone, please don't exclaim. I have a preliminary understanding of the curse of the human head balloon! Please don't be anxious, and please don't let anything unpleasant happen because of the food issue. Please give me two days, and I will definitely get everyone home safely."

Li Xuan's idea was very simple.

He would make talismanic water, pour it into the bodies of teachers and students, temporarily sealing their seven orifices, so that they could safely get home.

However, this only applies to those who haven't lost their "spirit" yet. Those who have already had the same balloon made should stay inside and wait for rescue...

Li Xuan then relayed some important points to the teachers and students through Yamano Reiko.

When he returned to Black Vortex Town, he found that many people had already hanged themselves in the sky, their bodies swaying back and forth with the ropes. The most gruesome deaths were those caused by strangulation, with bulging eyes, tongues sticking out to their chins, and faces ashen, making them look no different from ghosts...

Several human-shaped balloons followed the school all the way.

They stared intently at Li Xuan, trying to make him spit out the "soul" within him, but even with their eyes practically bulging out, Li Xuan showed no sign of anything amiss...

Li Xuan cultivates the Fengdu Dharma to strengthen his soul; he cultivates the Dongyue Dharma to strengthen his physical body and spirit. Any attempt to target his spirit and soul will have its magical power reduced to a pittance…

Because of the Central Lake, many tourists have come to Heiwo Town.

The once bustling street was now deserted, a stark contrast to the numerous corpses swaying in the sky.

Li Xuan walked into the courtyard of the rented house, where a human head balloon was still following him.

He turned around abruptly, and the closest person to him was a little boy named Balloon, whose face was gloomy as if questioning everything in the world. His head was wrapped in white gauze, and a candle was fixed to each of his temples.

This look...

He's a bit like a primary school student with the power of curses in Junji Ito's stories, I think his name was Souichi.

Because of its mature art style, it's hard to associate Shuangyi with a primary school student just by looking at her appearance. However, Li Xuan knew that Shuangyi was studying in Class 1, Grade 6 of the primary school.

This is a child who is extremely narcissistic and hates anyone who is better than him.

He possesses the power of curses; he can create moving and talking dolls, make children grow beards, and even induce hallucinations.

This is also a somewhat popular character, but since he is a primary school student, Li Xuan thought there would be no interaction between them.

I never expected to run into Souichi's human head balloon here...

Li Xuan's gaze left Shuangyi's head balloon somewhat bewildered, even causing a hint of fear, as the head balloon possessed, in some ways, the same thoughts and memories as a real person.

The two-winged balloon tried to turn around and leave, but Li Xuan grabbed the rope below!
A flicker of panic flashed in its pupils. No, it couldn't be killed here. Its ultimate mission was to hang Shuangyi, who looked exactly like it...

If it were an ordinary human, it would be fine.

But Souichi is a special child, entangled in the power of a curse.

The human-shaped balloon doesn't know if Souichi will die after it's destroyed, but the balloon's formation is a one-time event, unidirectional and irreversible; it cannot be generated a second time...

It cannot be gambled on.

Thinking of this, it said, "Don't touch me..."

Li Xuan remained silent: "..." The atmosphere has reached this point, why not say something harsh?

He patted the gourd at his waist: "Come in!"

Shuangyi's head balloon went into the gourd with a whoosh, and the other head balloons scattered and floated into the air. Just kidding, their purpose is to spread fear and killing... What would happen if they were caught?

Li Xuan returned to the house, cleared out a clean, empty room without any sharp objects, and then released Shuangyi's head-shaped balloon...

"what are you up to!"

The moment the balloon was released, I wanted to run away, but unfortunately, with a gas volume of three meters in diameter, I couldn't get out even if I opened the window.

Li Xuan watched quietly as the double balloon bounced around in the room.

After a while, the Double Balloon seemed a little tired. It reluctantly admitted that it could not escape from the room, so it turned to Li Xuan and said in a softer tone, "What exactly do you want? Can you let me out?"

Li Xuan cut to the chase and asked, "Answer my question: where... did you come from?"

Shuangyi rolled her eyes and said, "Of course we came from human bodies. Can't you see that even our facial features are exactly the same? Really..."

That smug tone is almost exactly the same as Souichi's.

Li Xuan asked again, "I mean, what force made you turn into balloons and hunt down humans?"

The Double Balloon seemed to be in a daze. It started to have a headache and kept hitting the wall with its top of its head, but its soft body bounced back and forth in a ridiculous way.

"I don't know, I only know that I have to find a way to kill humans like myself."

Li Xuan asked, "Isn't there a reason?"

Shuangyi Balloon was stunned: "What reason do you need for this?"

This rhetorical question left Li Xuan speechless. To Qiong, killing seemed like a divine mission, the only thing to do after "birth".

The answer is perfectly reasonable.

After asking several questions, Li Xuan found that he had obtained very little information, so he took out a talisman and planned to extract the wisp of "soul" belonging to Shuangyi from the balloon!
The talisman paper had not yet been lit.

Souichi's balloon immediately showed a terrified expression, his face contorted, and he forced a sob, saying, "Don't kill me, I haven't killed Souichi yet..."

Li Xuan calmly said, "What's there to be afraid of? As long as I destroy you, he'll be dead, won't he?"

Shuangyi Balloon was clearly not very shrewd, and subconsciously said, "Do you think I don't want to? That kid isn't an ordinary person. I don't even know if I can kill him even if I'm destroyed! What can I do? How about you kill him for me, and then I'll be killed by you? How about that deal..."

Li Xuan rubbed his head, deciding to trap the human head balloon first, and then look for other methods.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Shuangyi started urging, "Are you going to do it or not? Say something! What's with this silence? Damn it, why are you all pretending like my brother? I hate you guys the most!"

Li Xuan closed the door, and the sound of the balloons immediately subsided.

He pasted a talisman on the door, and the sound immediately disappeared.

He suddenly heard footsteps in the corridor. He frowned. Who could have broken into his place in broad daylight?
Li Xuan concealed his aura and rushed out. When he arrived at the corridor, he was stunned. He saw a woman who was nearly two meters tall standing in the middle of the corridor, seemingly searching for something.

The woman had an oval head, a ferocious face, and a split jaw revealing a row of sharp teeth. Her eyes gleamed with a murderous intent. Upon seeing Li Xuan, her neck cracked, and a sound like ground glass squeezed out of her throat: "Such a fragrant smell. Where is it? There are two... um, one of them is you..."
