Thriller Zone: From the Mental Hospital to the Ghostly World

The boy swung his legs, and the surrounding river water gradually turned black, which meant that they had returned to Zhang Wenxuan's area.

He still had one chance to use his A-level trick, and without hesitation, Tongziyou led the way for everyone.

Several ghosts still hadn't appeared, and the boy was on edge, but thankfully nothing happened along the way. Gradually, the familiar reef reappeared in his field of vision.

but......

Zhu Guang touched the boy, his expression changing.

Zhang Wenxuan, who was sitting on the reef, has disappeared.

Where did he go?

When the boy thought of the direction where the leather-clad ghost first appeared, he paused for a moment, and an extremely ridiculous conjecture immediately surfaced in his mind.

Could it be that the black-clad ghost... killed Zhang Wenxuan?

In other words, Hongtian in the rocky cave was completely unguarded.

What is the point of everything they've done?

A strong sense of powerlessness permeated Wan Xiaoshuang's entire body.

In order to get the red satchel and deal with Zhang Wenxuan, Chen Ji lured away the evil spirit alone... At this point, it's uncertain whether he'll live or die.

And now they're being told...

Are red schoolbags no longer necessary?

The scene before them felt like a slap in the face, striking everyone hard.

Floating blankly in the water, everyone fell silent. After a long while, Tongzi patted Wan Xiaoshuang's shoulder wearily, as if to comfort her.

In any case, let's find another Hongtian first.

The boy, carrying a red schoolbag, swam slowly forward, passing through the narrow crevice, and dived to the large reef.

This rock is unusually large; no wonder it could hide Hong Tian.

The hole was as dark as an abyss.

The boy gestured for Wan Xiaoshuang and Zhu Guang to step back, and then went to investigate.

The interior of the reef was extremely quiet.

The sounds that could be heard at the bottom of the river were already very faint, and with the stones blocking the sound, the boy could not hear any noise from the bank at all.

He couldn't see anything, so he simply grabbed the stone wall with one hand and groped around with the other. Soon, his fingertips felt the texture of the fabric.

call.

The boy secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

What he feared most was that Hong Tian would still be discovered by the vengeful ghost and hidden somewhere else.

but.....

What kind of clothes are these? Why do they feel so stiff?

The boy hesitated for a moment, but he grabbed it with a light touch and unexpectedly caught it in his hand!

That is......

Tong Zi's mind went blank for a moment. He pulled out his phone, which was waterproof and could still turn on its flashlight.

Light scattering.

It was very dark.

But it was enough for the boy to see clearly the baseball cap he was carrying.

At the same moment, two cold arms suddenly wrapped around the boy's waist.

He slowly lowered his head and saw a pale figure squatting on the ground, looking up at him intently.

I don't know how long they've been staring at the boy.

Without the baseball cap to shield it, its exposed skull was wet and gleaming white.

The ghost chuckled eerily and gestured for the boy to look up.

The boy's flashlight slowly moved upwards, but before he could even see the top of the rock face, he saw his own face in front of him...

It drifted past the corner of the white shirt.

.......

Zhu Guang's eyes were filled with confusion.

He was just acting on instinct, holding Hongtian tightly in his arms, searching through the water plants.

The moment the boy's entire body plunged into the reef, the surrounding river water suddenly rippled gently, and then the scenery around them changed abruptly!

The reef has disappeared.

Only a clump of green water plants remained, swaying in the river.

The two immediately realized that the reef was fake, and that once they went in, they would be pulled into a ghostly illusion.

The tour group still has three ghosts left: a man disguised as Li Yinghe, wearing a baseball cap and a white shirt; and each of them has the ability to create illusions.

That's why Zhang Wenxuan disappeared.

That's why they didn't see Ah Gou's remains.

The other Hongtian isn't here at all!

Nothing at all.

Wan Xiaoshuang gestured, her eyes filled with anxiety.

First Chen Ji, then Tong Zi—both were taken away by the ghosts one by one, but more importantly...

A red schoolbag in the hands of a child!

He must still be here.

Zhu Guang pointed to the water plants, but they couldn't see them.

He didn't give up, turning over the water plants again and again.

Zhu Guang knew very well that the boy's ability to survive as an A-level ghost was extremely strong, and when combined with other ghosts, it might really be able to restrain those three ghosts.

only......

The child will also pay a heavy price.

His hand, which was parting the water plants, trembled slightly, and the image of the boy he first saw resurfaced in his mind.

He looked very young then, with hair as black as ink. He stood alone on the side, not really paying attention to anyone.

Later... they survived that domain together.

Later... they met Li Yinghe, and their team of two gained another member, forming a solid triangle.

After going around in circles, the three-person team was still missing a piece.

Li Yinghe is dead.

Zhu Guang's fat face trembled slightly. From three people to two, could it be that in the end...?

Should we go back to where we started?

Suddenly a white light flashed, and before Zhu Guang could react, something hit him hard on the head, and everything went black!

The next second, he felt the river water beside him violently shaking, and his shoulder was slapped hard.

That is......

A glint of light flashed in Zhu Guang's eyes!

It's a child!

She was gesturing to him, her face pale.

But before Zhu Guang could react, he saw that the boy's exposed arm was covered with loose skin, wrinkles, and age spots.

His heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

go!

The boy seemed unconcerned, and after gesturing to Wan Xiaoshuang, he immediately swam away.

Wan Xiaoshuang gazed at his completely white hair, her eyes first filled with joy, then turning into a complex expression.

This is undoubtedly a side effect of the "virgin A-level trick".

This also proves that the other party has not been replaced.

It seems that with repeated use, aging will gradually erode the boy's body... No wonder the boy was reluctant to use A-level trick again in the forest.

The side effects are too severe.

I just don't know if things will improve a little after we leave the domain.

As the river rippled, three figures, like the boy, emerged from the water plants one after another. They stared at the departing figures of the boy and the others, their eyes filled with resentment.

But they could no longer catch up.

Just like before in the teaching building, the bodies of these three ghosts all aged terribly, then became young again, repeating this cycle endlessly.

And in the deeper darkness.

The boy's face was tense.

If there were any other possibility, he would not want to use his A trick again.

In one domain, his A-level technique has two chances to be used, but the side effects will also accumulate significantly, directly causing his arm to age to an extreme degree and become completely powerless.

However, now that the three ghosts are also restrained by him, they can no longer interfere with them.

Fortunately, he had a backup plan, and Lady Luck was still on their side.

As long as Chen Ji can hold off the black-clad ghost, everything will be over soon... Fortunately, the ghost's target wasn't the red backpack.
