The most dangerous thing inside the house was the mud statuette. Now that the statuette was in the hands of the headless woman, she had no chance to fight back.
The faceless monster had almost killed Chen Ge under the protection of the four Red Specters. Even though the altar and the statuette had played a part in that, it indirectly proved how powerful the faceless man was.
He could erase certain memories. If this power was used properly, it would be of great help to Chen Ge.
"It is rare to see a Specter with such a scary power, and the key is that he is not a Red Specter. When he becomes a Red Specter, this power will become even scarier. "
From how Chen Ge saw it, if Yan Danian was the strongest Specter below the Red Specter level, then the faceless man should be the second strongest Specter below the Red Specter level.
"The quality of the Specters that I've drawn from the Wheel of Misfortune is getting higher and higher."
After consuming the remaining curse, the red high heels and Foul Odor worked together to drag the man out from the faceless monster's body.
His body was covered in cursed threads. Earlier, it was like he was wrapped in a cocoon.
When all the cursed threads disappeared, the man collapsed on the ground. He was thin and did not look that old, like he had just come of age.
"Can you hear me?" Chen Ge squatted down before the man. After the man escaped from the curse, his body became transparent like he could disappear at any moment. "I did not come to save you out of kindness. I was asked to do so by someone."
The man's eyes were still closed. It was like he had experienced something similar before, but he had been tricked before, and now he had given up hope.
"It was Fang Yu who asked me to come find you. She carved your name all over her body. Every day, she would go to the park in the city and wait for you on the bench." Chen Ge's voice grew louder. "Now that the park is about to be demolished, last night should be the last time she went to wait for you."
The man's expression did not change much, but his eyelids moved slightly.
"Fang Yu's illness is getting worse. Perhaps before she dies, her biggest wish is to see you. She has many things to say to you. You are her best friend and her only friend."
Chen Ge did not know what he had said that had triggered the man. Perhaps it was when he had said that Fang Yu would die.
His eyelids fluttered faster and faster, and the man lying on the ground finally opened his eyes.
His eyes were very special, like those of a cat. There were two thin vertical lines in the depths of his pupils. If one looked at them for a long time, it seemed as if they would suck people in.
"Fang Yu, Fang Yu …"
Repeating this name over and over again, the man's mind slowly returned to normal. After so many years, perhaps it was this word that had supported him and kept him from losing his obsession.
After a long time, the man looked up at Chen Ge and his lips moved slightly. "She still hasn't forgotten me? Once she remembers me, that person will look for her. This is the curse that person placed in my body. "
"Her memory is very poor, but even if she forgot her own name, she did not forget you." It was a simple sentence without any embellishment. After Chen Ge said it, the man on the ground slowly lowered his head. He closed his eyes again.
"For the past ten years, she has been repeating the memory of the day you left. She has been going through the same pain every day. Even if you don't think for yourself, you have to think for her, right? Do you really think that your choice is for her own good? " Chen Ge sat down before the man. He had spared the man's life because he thought the man's power was unique, and he wanted the man to meet Fang Yu.
"I am protecting her. There is a ghost that has its eyes on Fang Yu! You don't understand how scary he is, you don't know … "
"Is the Specter that you're talking about an invisible shadow?" Chen Ge perked up. What the man was going to say next should be related to the altar.
"He is like a person's shadow, but he can grow on his own, and he has a physical body. Most importantly, he is so powerful that he can make others despair." The man was lying on the ground, and his voice was filled with exhaustion. "That thing is looking for the right person to possess. When I was playing with Fang Yu, Fang Yu would often hear someone calling her name. The voice came from the east. At first, I did not pay it much attention, but one day, we came to play next to the dam in Eastern Jiujiang."
"Fang Yu heard the voice again. She seemed to have lost herself, and she wandered deeper into the forest. I followed behind her.
"Then we saw this house. The door was open, and there were many children staring at us with that scary smile.
"I felt that something was wrong, so I dragged Fang Yu out, but Fang Yu did not react at all. In the end, we were both dragged into the house.
"At the time, I did not think too much about it. At the last moment, I pushed Fang Yu out, and then I closed the door."
The man's body was still fading, and his spirit seemed to be dispersing.
"That was when my nightmare started. The house was filled with flowers and laughter, but it was actually a house of nightmares. Everyone is the shadow's playmate, but everyone's smiles are forced. "
"The shadow planted curses on everyone. Because I let Fang Yu go, he hated me very much, and he placed many curses on me.
"I've endured more pain than anyone else, but it's also made me a lot stronger than others."
"In some ways, the shadow did not behave like a ghost at all. In fact, he was slowly growing like a human.
"Slowly, he did not need those fake friends anymore. What he needed was a guardian.
"He made all his former 'family' fight against each other because he only needed one.
"After enduring the most curses and pain, I managed to 'survive' until the end. The shadow seemed to be very satisfied with that result.
"At the time, I did not know the reason, but later, I realized that it was all part of his plan.
"The shadow went out more and more until one day, he brought back an altar." The man glanced behind him. "There was a mud statuette placed inside the altar, and the name Fang Yu was written on it.
"When I saw the name Fang Yu, I had a bad feeling in my heart. I wanted to escape this place and secretly tell Fang Yu to leave Jiujiang.
"But who would have thought that everything was within the shadow's expectations? He purposely used me to get close to Fang Yu. He wanted to plant the curse on Fang Yu and turn her into his body."
What the man said surprised Chen Ge. "The shadow wanted to turn Fang Yu into his body?"
"Yes, there seemed to be something else hidden inside his body. That thing was entrusted with his memories and emotions. He appeared to want that thing to grow inside Fang Yu's body."
"Ghost fetus?"
"Yes, I heard the shadow mention that before." The man was shocked. "How did you know that?"
