On the balcony of the 15th floor.

Cheng Huo and Zheng Tong were leaning against the wall, holding walkie-talkies and asking questions.

"Hey, Brother Liu, can you hear me?"

"Hey, Double Pupil, did you hear a reply?"

"Sizzle."

Only a few static sounds came from the walkie-talkie; there was no other response.

"Damn it." Cheng Huo slammed the walkie-talkie against the wall, his brows furrowing.

Zheng Tong asked, "Can't you hear what they're saying?"

Cheng Huo shook his head: "I could only hear intermittent screams and cries for help, it was very eerie."

Zheng Tongdao: "How about we go up and help?"

Cheng Huo's expression was serious: "No, we can't leave here."

He glanced at the unconscious residents: "Since this is your first time participating in a ghostly descent, you may not know that in the ghost realm, the power of ghosts is far more exaggerated than we think."

"I dare say that if we leave them, they will all be possessed by monsters within seconds."

Zheng Tong rubbed his bald head: "You mean ghosts and monsters have been watching this place?"

Cheng Huo nodded: "That's right, ghosts and monsters are best at taking things down one by one, just like in horror movies."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Tong took a flashlight out of his bag.

"What is this?" Cheng Huo asked.

Zheng Tong explained, "This is a prototype from our institute. Its working principle is to modulate the output light source with a specific fundamental frequency to perform coherent detection of non-local disturbances in the environment."

Cheng Huo felt a headache coming on just hearing these terms: "Put it simply."

Zheng Tong: "It's about using light sources to search for ghosts and monsters."

Cheng Huo asked in surprise, "Is it possible?"

Zheng Tong pressed the switch: "Try it and you'll see."

After a few seconds of delay, the flashlight suddenly shone, illuminating the entire space in pure white like a flashbang.

Along with this came a sharp tinnitus.

"Holy shit." Cheng Huo covered his eyes and plugged his ears with his hands.

"Sorry, the power is a bit high." Zheng Tong was obviously using it for the first time as well, and he hurriedly adjusted the brightness down.

Once the brightness and tinnitus returned to normal, Cheng Huo frantically rubbed his ear canals, complaining, "Dude, you almost deafened me."

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry," Zheng Tong said, extremely embarrassed. "I didn't expect this thing to be running at its highest power."

As he was talking, he suddenly saw something and pointed to a resident's house: "Look!"

"Um?"

Cheng Huo followed his finger and shifted his gaze, soon seeing a black shadow fading from under a resident's body.

"It's a ghost!"

Cheng Huo was surprised that the light actually revealed something. He rushed over, wanting to see what the black thing was.

But the next second, a dense clump of hair shot up from the back of the resident's head.

Faced with the attack, Cheng Huo paused, then decisively withdrew.

brush!

A streak of crimson light swept past Zheng Tong, and before the bald man could react, he was violently pulled away from his spot.

A second later, they appeared on the stairs on the 14th floor.

"You wait here, I'll rescue the other residents," Cheng Huo said, panting.

"Okay." Zheng Tong nodded, went to the corner, and used the flashlight to illuminate the darkness around him.

Then, Cheng Huo's figure quickly disappeared.

Two seconds later, he returned to the stairwell with two residents and left them next to Zheng Tong.

After making 10 round trips like this, Cheng Huo was so exhausted that he was panting heavily and could barely stand.

"Hurry up and drink some!" Zheng Tong opened the energy supplement and tossed it to Cheng Huo.

Cheng Huo finished his drink in one gulp, stared at the 15th floor, and said solemnly, "This guy has already taken control of the rest of the people. I'm not good at direct combat, so I can only hide here for now."

Zheng Tong asked, "But what if it catches up with us?"

Cheng Huo's expression was a little strange, as if he had just witnessed something confusing.

"It probably won't chase after us..."

……

……

On the other side, black ash was scattered all over the ground in front of Du Wang.

These were hairs controlled by ghosts, but under his fists, they all turned to ashes, having no effect whatsoever on entanglement.

Liu Qiang, standing to the side, was amazed. Although he knew that the young man had been a martial arts champion, he did not expect him to be so powerful, using his fists and body movements to break through each of the attacking hairs.

In particular, the blue flame of his natal spirit seemed to be quite restrained by his black hair, igniting it at the slightest touch.

To be honest, Du Wang himself didn't expect the power of the Eyebag Demon to be so useful.

Perhaps there is some deeper relationship of restraint. Every time he breaks through the black crack, the blue flames spread out and burn away large patches of hair.

In this situation, even ghosts and monsters can't do anything about him.

Liu Qiang rushed over and said quickly, "The fact that these hairs are so unruly means that its parasite is nearby."

"But everyone has been rescued." Du Wang glanced at the corpses on the ground.

"Yeah, where is this bastard's parasite?" Liu Qiang said, somewhat agitated, and punched the wall hard.

Unexpectedly, this punch actually punched a hole in the wall.

"Um?"

Both of them were taken aback.

Liu Qiang withdrew his hand and turned his gaze to the hole.

In the deep darkness, countless hairs wriggled like maggots, carrying a chilling, damp aura.

"It's inside the wall!"

In order to rent for higher prices, landlords in the Youth Commune often renovated their houses, splitting the original large single room into two smaller single rooms and renting them to different people.

For cost reasons, the wall between two rooms is often made of wood paneling instead of concrete.

They just didn't expect that the ghost's parasite was hiding inside the wall.

Could there be something unknown inside the wall?

Thinking of this, Du Wang and Liu Qiang violently demolished the wall together.

"Boom, boom!"

The two men, carrying stools and a coffee table, smashed the entire wall, revealing more of their black hair.

The monster became visibly agitated, its hair extending from the wall and transforming into a tsunami that crashed towards the two of them.

"Clap clap clap!"

Du Wang changed the magazine of the buzzer rounds, raised his pistol and shot at several openings, destroying large clumps of hair.

Liu Qiang spared no effort, summoning a giant eagle to tear at his hair, while simultaneously transforming himself into a violent demolition machine, his veins bulging as he frantically tore apart the walls.

Just as the two were struggling with their hair, the sound of running suddenly came from outside the door.

Du Wang frowned, and through his piercing eyes, he saw Chu Wen running towards him carrying a woman in a bathrobe.

They tried to drive them away, but then a group of residents with hair wrapped around their necks rushed over, seemingly incoherent.

"It's someone from the 15th floor!"

"Nine Ears and the others encountered ghosts!"

He never expected that at such a critical moment, the ghost would have gained new help.

"Those people are insane!"

Chu Wen led the woman into the room, and just as she was about to explain the situation, she saw a dense mass of hair on the ceiling.

The policewoman was startled, cold sweat pouring down her back. She then realized that she was being pursued from behind and threatened by a tiger from the front.

"Come here quickly!" Du Wang pulled the trigger, knocking back the hair.

Chu Wen was so frightened that she lost her mind and instinctively ran to Du Wang's side.

"Hiding in the bathroom!"

Du Wang stared warily at the women in bathrobes, gesturing for them to go inside.

Chu Wen swallowed hard, threw the woman into the bathroom, and then locked the door.

"Do you have a gun? Give me one, I can help you too!"

Her expression was resolute, as if she were prepared to die in the line of duty.

Before Du Wang could speak, Liu Qiang shouted, "Come here and give me a hand!"

Without saying a word, Chu Wen ran over.

At this point, the giant eagle had gained the upper hand, using its wings to tear apart most of the monster's hair.

The ghost was also running out of steam, and the speed at which its hair moved slowed down considerably.

Du Wang stood guard at the door, using illusions to confuse the more than 10 residents who rushed over, and then broke the black cracks one by one, freeing them from the control of the ghosts.

Liu Qiang tossed the pistol to Chu Wen, and the two of them worked together, taking half a minute to finally dismantle most of the wall.

Only then did the truth hidden behind the wall finally come to light for the three of them.

A thin, long-haired girl with a fair complexion, rosy skin, and deep-set eyes was lying quietly in the wall.

"She's the host who's been possessed by the monster!"

Watching the girl's hair stretch and move, Liu Qiang felt invigorated. He held a military dagger in his hand, intending to take care of the ghost directly.

However, he didn't see that Chu Wen, who was behind him, suddenly looked blank after seeing the girl's face.

"who I am?"

"I am Chu Wen..."

"No, I am Zhang Yue..."

"Yes, I'm Zhang Yue!"

As she muttered to herself, her pupils rolled upwards in a strange way, becoming covered by large areas of white.

"Click."

Immediately afterwards, her neck seemed to be controlled by some inexplicable force, suddenly rotating 180 degrees and twisting to the right behind her head.

Then her short hair at the back of her head was lifted, revealing the pale and terrifying face of the woman in the bathrobe!
