My incredible luck and the girl I picked up

"...I can manage on my own." Leng Yihan's tone was particularly firm...

227 The Girl in the Villa (14)

"Although it's not very bright... at least I can see the road..." Leng Yihan touched the obviously repaired wall next to her and walked down step by step.

The tunnel is really small, but it has been expanded from being wide enough for only one person to enter to now being wide enough for one and a half people to walk side by side. However, this seems to be the widest it can be.

As they ventured deeper, Leng Yihan sniffed the air from time to time. So far, there was no strange smell in the air. But if that's the case... what exactly did the woman send the ghost to get?

As Leng Yihan ventured deeper, he sensed something was amiss. The surrounding air was growing increasingly cold. If he continued without finding the end, he wouldn't be able to endure it; he would either freeze to death or leave immediately…

We need to pick up the pace...

As Leng Yihan thought to herself, she quickened her pace, rubbing her hands together to maintain her remaining body heat.

Leng Yihan quickly realized that her efforts were futile... because the deeper she went, the lower the temperature became. Realizing this, Leng Yihan immediately thought of the ghost; perhaps something in there had made it so cold...

But wasn't he supposed to be forbidden from coming to the main hall? Why is he allowed to come to the cellar...? Or was his ability to come to the main hall something that happened before that woman died...? Or perhaps...?

A bad feeling suddenly arose in Leng Yihan's heart. She was about to turn back, but she stopped and continued to walk deeper into the area.

"We can't give up now, and if it really does reach the cellar, I'll most likely be trapped in the tunnel if I turn back... It's better to go deeper and see if there's any way to leave..." The method Leng Yihan was referring to was naturally the ring.

However, thinking that the people in the hall might be in danger, Leng Yihan immediately quickened her pace, abandoning brisk walking and switching to sprinting. Although her speed was much slower in this cold environment, at least her body got some exercise, which kept her from freezing.

"Something feels off..." Leng Binglan frowned, looked up and felt a chill run down her spine. Sure enough, the ghost was standing at the top of the stairs again, looking at the five people with a resentful expression. Then, the eyes of the head inside its belly looked at the cellar door that had been opened.

"Waaaaah...waaaah..." The ghost started crying again. "Don't be afraid, it can't come down." Seeing Zou Yu's trembling body, Leng Binglan reached out and took her hand, comforting her.

"Really...really...it really won't come down..." Zou Yu's eyes were already a little red, from being frightened. Although she usually pretended to be very tough, she wasn't that tough inside.

"Yes, really." Leng Binglan nodded vigorously.

“But, but… why is it starting to come down the stairs…” Upon hearing Zou Yu’s words, Leng Binglan immediately turned around. Sure enough, the ghost had started to come down the stairs… although very slowly, although very slowly… but it was coming down.

The lobby is not absolutely safe!

Although the speed has slowed down considerably, it is clear that the lobby is still not absolutely safe.

"What should we do?" Feixue walked to Leng Binglan's side and said in a deep voice, "I'm not afraid that it will come directly to me. It was obviously much weaker in the hall, but I'm afraid that it will ignore us and run straight to Lin Ye..."

Feixue's words reminded the other four that if the ghost ignored them and went directly to find Leng Yihan through the tunnel under the floor door, then Leng Yihan would likely encounter it when she returned.

"Block the floor door?" Zou Yu said in a panic, more worried about Leng Yihan than herself.

“Impossible. If Lin Ye wanted to come out, we wouldn’t have time to move such a heavy main seat. Ghosts won’t give us that much time,” Leng Binglan retorted. But as she said this, she suddenly remembered something and subconsciously looked at Zou Yu’s feet.

Those illusory feet were still there; it seemed... as long as Zou Yu didn't die, those feet wouldn't disappear, and would always be behind her...

in case……

"Zou Yu, are you willing to take the risk? It's dangerous, but maybe it can help the forestry department." Leng Binglan turned her head and looked up at Zou Yu seriously.

"...How, how can I help?" Zou Yu asked.

"I'll use you as bait, and only you can be the bait," Leng Binglan said.

"Wait, why does it have to be Zou Yu?" Xu Zhou asked, puzzled. "Can't it be me or Ruan Qi?!"

“Ruan Qi could have,” Leng Binglan said, “but not now.”

"Are there any necessary conditions for summoning a ghost?" Xu Zhou asked, still able to grasp the situation.

"Yes." (Cold Blue)

"How did you know?" Xu Zhou.

"..." Leng Binglan glanced at the ghost's location, which was still quite a distance from the hall, so there should still be time to explain to him: "Hmm... Don't forget, Feixue, Linye, and I explored the entire villa."

Leng Binglan also realized that these NPCs couldn't see Zou Yu's feet behind him, so she started making things up. Of course, she wouldn't tell the truth. After all, saying that she saw Zou Yu's feet behind him would be hard to explain, and it would also easily cause Zou Yu to panic. After all, no one would be particularly calm if they knew that there was a pair of legs behind them.

Except for certain special people.

"Is that so... alright, but even so, isn't it too dangerous?" Xu Zhou seemed very reluctant and didn't want Zou Yu to go.

Leng Binglan remained silent, but instead gave Xuzhou a meaningful look, a sly smile playing on her lips.

"...Never mind, just pretend I didn't say anything." Seeing Leng Binglan's sly smile, Xu Zhou immediately changed his tune.

"Oh, don't worry, we'll do our best to interfere with the ghost. Besides, its strength has indeed weakened a lot here. All we need to do is get Lin Ye out before dark," Leng Binglan said.

"Then... let's give it a try," Zou Yu said.

The ghost was getting closer and closer. Leng Binglan silently moved a chair next to her. This one was much lighter than the main chair, and Leng Binglan could easily pick it up.

"I'll give it a good whack from the head first." Leng Binglan said, slowly leaning the chair towards the ghost. The ghost was still going downstairs, and Leng Binglan was right below it. The stairs the ghost was going down were a spiral staircase. Leng Binglan took a good position, and the moment the ghost appeared, she smashed the chair directly at the ghost.

"Bang!" A loud sound rang out, and the ghost's movements showed no signs of slowing down, but the chair was already broken, and Leng Binglan's hand was numb.

Seeing that her trick had failed, Leng Binglan immediately turned around, ducked down, and ran away. However, Leng Binglan's crouching down did save her life. The ghost's claws scratched the spot where Leng Binglan had just been and almost caught her.

"How can this guy be so tough... What are we going to do tonight..." Leng Binglan's expression was not good. Fortunately, the ghost could not use the blood droplets for ranged attacks in the morning, otherwise they would all be wiped out now.

Right...the main seat is just a wooden chair, isn't it...why is it so heavy...? Leng Binglan frowned.

"Xuzhou! Go check the main seat and see why the chair is so heavy! Start walking the dog! Zou Yu, come here!" Leng Binglan immediately commanded.

The ghost stepped onto the hall floor, and Fei Xue and Ruan Qi surrounded it. However, none of the three dared to get too close to the ghost; they needed to find out where it had gone first.

After the ghost descended, it didn't even glance at them, and walked step by step towards the cellar. Clearly, its target was Leng Yihan inside the cellar...

"Zou Yu!" Leng Binglan called out. She was also very nervous, wondering if the ghost would react to Zou Yu.

"You, come here!" Zou Yu hurriedly stepped forward, but when she saw the ghost turn around, she was so frightened that she ran back immediately.

"Zou Yu, don't be afraid! It reacted to you!" Leng Binglan said immediately after seeing the ghost's actions.

"Oh...oh!" For the sake of her lover, Zou Yu took a deep breath and took several more steps up.

Upon seeing the ghost turn around, Zou Yu suppressed her fear and did not immediately start running. Instead, she waited until it turned around and walked towards her.

The ghost seemed very unwilling, but it couldn't control itself and was forced to walk towards Zou Yu step by step.

"Zou Yu! Start running!"

228 The Girl in the Villa (15)

What followed was quite comical.

The head inside the ghost's belly looked unwilling, but it couldn't control itself and could only walk towards Zou Yu. Unfortunately, it was in the hall, and it was morning, so its abilities were completely weakened, and it couldn't do anything to Zou Yu, who was sneaking around not far in front of it.

The group was initially worried that the ghost would be very fast, but in reality... especially after they went down to the living room, the ghost's speed was incredibly slow, about the same as an old lady taking a walk.

Even so, Zi Lengbinglan dared not let everyone lower their guard. Who knew that what she was seeing was just an act to lull them into a false sense of security? Perhaps the ghost's speed had an upper limit to its potential.

Seeing that the ghosts and humans remained so cautious, they had no choice but to obediently let themselves be led away, completely powerless to resist...

cold……

so cold...

Is it because of my name...? If so, I definitely need to change my name!

Leng Yihan didn't stop running. He didn't know how long he had been running. His body was exhausted and starting to feel cold, but Leng Yihan's mind was still crystal clear.

Damn it... Where is the end of this world?!

It's too late to regret it now. It took him quite a while to get here quickly, and at his current speed, it will definitely take even longer to get back.

Leng Yihan looked down at his body. He was covered in frost, which was beginning to freeze. If this continued, he would soon be unable to move at all...

Am I going to... die here? What's going on? I finally escaped the clutches of the demons, only to die while searching for clues... What on earth happened...?

While Leng Yihan was still complaining, the surrounding temperature suddenly changed—for him, who had been in a low-temperature environment for a long time, the increase in temperature had become particularly sensitive.

Subsequently, the temperature rose rapidly as Leng Yihan moved forward, and all the frost on her body melted into water. Although the change in environment from cold to hot made Leng Yihan very uncomfortable, at least she got rid of that icy and snowy area.

After lingering in the sweltering heat for a while, Leng Yihan immediately picked up her book and walked forward, not daring to linger, while simultaneously sensing the changes in her body.

The temperature must be stuck at normal human temperature... but it's clearly very hot here, how could it only be this temperature...?

Leng Yihan frowned, then suddenly realized something and quickly quickened her pace and started running.

His health bar was still there, but Leng Yihan had almost forgotten about it. Just now, Leng Yihan subconsciously glanced at the health bar and found that the entire red health bar had turned blue, and a part of it was starting to turn orange.

Leng Yihan immediately had a hypothesis in her mind.

He hadn't checked his health bar in that cold corridor, but perhaps the purpose of that corridor was to give him something like heat resistance, which was why his body temperature was now at normal.

But if this layer of blue health bar disappears... Leng Yihan doesn't even dare to imagine how high the temperature would be here.

We must leave immediately!

Despite her exhaustion, Leng Yihan started running again. The corridor was the same as before, the only difference being the temperature.

As Leng Yihan walked forward step by step, just as he was wondering how long he would have to run and whether he could hold on, the end finally appeared before him, and at the end was a door.

A door! It's a door!

Leng Yihan excitedly sped up and ran forward, pushing open the door and rushing inside just before her blue health bar was depleted.

Upon exiting, Leng Yihan's health bar did not immediately turn back to red, but the orange color of the health bar had begun to gradually fade.

It seems we're safe for now...

Leng Yihan pondered for a moment before raising her head to survey the room. Although she didn't understand furniture arrangement, she guessed from the placement of these items that this might be the master bedroom…

The master bedroom is the room for the owner, and the owner of this villa, without a doubt, is Yu Miaomiao...

"I didn't expect you to be able to get here." Someone suddenly spoke behind Leng Yihan. The moment Leng Yihan turned around, the door had already been closed, and the person behind the door who was sneering was Yu Miaomiao.

Although she was only wearing a bath towel...

"Yu Miaomiao?" Leng Yihan cautiously took a few steps back.

"What? Aren't you going back to see your friends? They're being haunted by demons and ghosts right now," said the person who looked remarkably like Yu Miaomiao.

"Are you Yu Miaomiao?" Leng Yihan frowned. Although they looked almost identical, Leng Yihan's intuition told her that this person was slightly different from Yu Miaomiao...

“Me? I’m Yu Miaomiao.” Yu Miaomiao nodded. “But the person who’s greeting you outside… might not be me.”
