Su Yu sighed: "Alright, stop arguing."
Even with their eyes wide open like copper bells on night watch, someone would still inexplicably disappear. This made Su Yu simply give up on this futile effort and let them all rest and recharge for tomorrow.
She thought for a moment and then called out the sand.
"Keep an eye on them. If things get really bad, call Yun over. Understand?"
Sand nodded, then asked, "Master, what about you?"
Su Yu picked up her machete and walked towards the door: "I'm going to investigate."
"Then, Master, be careful!"
"Ah."
After leaving the auditorium, Su Yu went straight to the sandpit on the playground.
The girl, who had been lying dead in the sand pit during the day, had just crawled out of the pit.
Seeing Su Yu walking over with a machete in hand and a blank expression, she froze for a moment, instinctively wanting to bury herself back down.
Su Yu: "Stop hiding! I see you."
As he spoke, he walked up to her.
The girl gave an awkward laugh and asked, "What is it now?"
"I'd like to ask if there are any troublesome ghosts or monsters in this place."
Su Yu didn't expect her to know too much, but surprisingly, this girl knew more than she had imagined.
"Difficult ghosts? There are plenty."
The girl had an excited look on her face, as if to say, "Now that you've mentioned this, I'm no longer sleepy."
“Every school building in this area has a bound spirit, but the one in the auditorium is the most difficult to deal with…”
"You mean, the ghost in the auditorium is the most troublesome?"
"Yes." The girl looked at Su Yu curiously: "You haven't already run into her, have you?"
Su Yu remained silent.
What terrible luck I have to choose that place as my lodging for tonight.
However, no warnings have been sent from the sand, so there shouldn't be any problems for now.
"Why is it said to be the most difficult to deal with?" Su Yu continued to ask.
"No one can beat her." The girl sighed, resting her chin on her hand. "She holds the secret of a big shot, so that big shot dotes on her. I heard he gave her half of his power."
"Then..."
"She recently acquired a very strange short sword."
Upon hearing her say that, Su Yu subconsciously thought of the short sword that Hongyu had made not long ago.
What an extremely troublesome weapon!
"That sword greatly increased her power, but it also made this place even more unsafe."
"I heard that she would use a face familiar to the victims, dragging a suitcase, and pass by them. If the victims approached her out of fear or curiosity and made eye contact with her, they would be instantly dismembered and stuffed into the suitcase."
As the girl finished speaking, she suddenly glanced at Su Yu with a look of regret.
"It doesn't matter if we die, since we should have died long ago, but you're different. You're still so young, still a human being, and so beautiful..."
As she spoke, she leaned closer and whispered in Su Yu's ear, "Actually, I heard that the big shot is holding a marriage contest. Do you want to give it a try? If you become his bride, you can inherit his other half's power and won't have to die!"
Su Yu quickly waved her hand and declined the suggestion.
Being the bride of a goblin made her blush.
Besides, her harem is already large enough!
If she hadn't known how to refuse, she would have been completely drained by now.
"Really? That's a shame."
The girl's smile had a rather meaningful quality to it.
Su Yu felt that this guy seemed different from the one she saw during the day, but she couldn't tell what was different. She thought it was the cursed aura of the night causing her to have a hallucination.
After she got up and left, a slight golden light shone in the girl's eyes.
Her facial features also began to change, becoming more delicate and adorable, like a porcelain doll.
"Is this the one whose soul has the highest compatibility with mine, Xuan Ji? Hehe, what a cute little guy."
I wonder when this adorable little guy will ask her for help?
Xuanji licked her lips, revealing a sickly excited look in her eyes.
"Why not put more pressure on her and make her fall into my arms even faster?"
335. It's nothing more than a trick to manipulate people's hearts!
As dawn broke, Su Yu returned to the auditorium.
She took a stroll around the school, dealt with a few not-so-powerful earthbound spirits, and also gathered some new information.
It's about that powerful figure who's the earthbound spirit covering the grand hall.
"Xuan Ji is at most three hundred years old from birth to now, but she has already reached a very powerful level of cultivation."
"Her talent and ruthlessness are both rare."
"In order to achieve her goal, she killed countless people, ghosts, gods and Buddhas who treated her kindly along the way."
Su Yu recalled the words of those earthbound spirits and sighed helplessly.
From this perspective, the so-called marriage proposal was definitely just a way to find the next victim.
Ghosts are inherently capricious, especially those who are selfish to a certain extent; you absolutely cannot believe a single word they say.
Of course, Su Yu never intended to have any interaction with her.
In addition to information about Xuanji, she also obtained some information about how to leave this place.
There are only two ways to leave here.
"The first method is to save all those who are asking for help, resolve their fear and resentment, and simply put, to help them all pass on to the afterlife."
This is something Su Yu clearly cannot do.
She lacked both Ryoko's abilities and the capacity to save everyone.
Therefore, this method can be ignored.
"The second way is to break free of this cocoon through one's own awareness."
The earthbound spirits here call the force that traps them and prevents them from leaving a cocoon.
If they cannot find salvation, they will repeat the image of death every day until their mind completely collapses and they become an unconscious wandering soul.
It's worth mentioning that each newcomer entering the cocoon only has one chance to completely save everyone, which is the three to five seconds immediately after entering.
After this point, even if you see someone jumping off a building or drowning, it will be too late to save them.
Therefore, when Su Yu asked them which direction their "self-awareness" should develop, they all showed helpless expressions:
"If we had known, we wouldn't be trapped here!"
Su Yu had no further clues at the moment, so she could only return to the auditorium to see how the survivors were doing today.
The seven people remained seated, looking listless.
Seeing Su Yu return, they finally showed some relief.
"We thought the big boss had abandoned us!"
Sand looked at them expressionlessly and snorted.
Sosia, who had been out partying all night, floated back through the window at this moment.
Su Yu ignored her and only asked Sha Zi if anything had happened here after she left last night.
Sha Zi shook his head.
"Okay, then you go back and rest first. I'll keep an eye on things myself from now on."
Su Yu put the sand back into the weapon, and then found an empty seat to sit down.
Sosia leaned closer and whispered in her ear, "I sense a very evil force watching Master."
Su Yu: "Oh."
An evil force? That must be the ghost pulling the suitcase from last night.
Or perhaps, it's Xuan Ji...?
Su Yu thought it was unlikely to be Xuan Ji, since she was new to the place and hadn't met her yet, so she shouldn't have offended her.
Looking at Su Yu's calm little face, Sosia exclaimed in surprise, "Master, aren't you afraid? That one is very strong, much stronger than me!"
Su Yu looked up at her and asked, "What are you trying to say?"
That sinister gaze made Sosia immediately shrink back and obediently drift away.
Oh, the owner is scary too~
But she likes it.
Not long after the calm ended, there was a knock on the door of the auditorium.
Su Yu looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young woman wearing a black mask and a long dress.
"Are you students here? Come and help us carry some things."
The young woman exuded a menacing aura.
You can tell at first glance that he's not a good person.
Obviously, anyone who dares to refuse will be slaughtered on the spot.
