Her rosy and tender little hands pressed on the cold and shabby coffin lid.
When Jiang Ling touched the red coffin, all the monsters that knelt in the village stopped crying, and the twisted faces slowly lifted up.
"Come help me!" Jiang Ling screamed. The usual cuteness was gone from her face, and her expression was scary.
"Bang!"
The heavy coffin lid slammed on the ground, and everyone turned to look inside.
Inside the red coffin was a woman.
Her wet hair stuck to her fragile body. Her skin was pale, and her features were regular. There was an air of heroism between her brows. She was not beautiful, but she gave off a special feeling.
"Buy us some time." Jiang Ling walked into the red coffin and stared at the woman inside.
The villagers all stood up, and they spoke in the local dialect. Their faces were filled with joy.
"How do you want me to buy time?" Chen Ge turned to look at Jiang Ling, and his heart skipped a beat.
Jiang Ling pulled back her hair. The back of her skull was missing a bone, and the scalp was caved in.
"This is the only abnormality on Jiang Ling's body?"
Walking forward, Jiang Ling smeared her blood on the woman's hand and then placed it on the back of her head.
Blood vessels crawled out from the woman's palm and crawled into Jiang Ling's brain through the boneless hole.
"What is she doing? Did she reincarnate into Jiang Ling, or is she just possessing Jiang Ling's body? "
The ugly villagers saw the sleeping woman inside the coffin, and they charged at her like crazy.
"I hate children!" Chen Ge took out the hammer from his backpack and stood before the red coffin. He felt like he was going to be torn apart soon.
Seeing the monsters charging at him, Chen Ge panicked. Other than fighting with all his might, he could only call for Zhang Ya in his mind.
The rampaging monster was about to tear Chen Ge and the coffin behind him apart when a light chuckle came from the blood fog. "At the moment of life and death, the female ghost did not come out to help you. Looks like she has indeed fallen into hibernation."
A red wave full of human faces dispersed the blood mist and knocked away Chen Ge and the deformed villagers who were surrounding him.
"A Red Specter from the Society of Strange Tales!" Chen Ge's body felt like it was frozen after being brushed by it.
He looked at his cold left hand. Earlier, the situation had been urgent, and he had only managed to use his hands to protect his head. In the end, his elbow had been touched by the Red Specter.
"I've been following behind you all this time, waiting for this moment." The monster full of human faces condensed again, and a black-robed man walked out from behind it. This person stopped beside the red coffin, but his eyes were fixed on Chen Ge. "You didn't expect us to meet again so soon, did you?"
At the last sentence, the black robed man changed his voice. He was imitating the voice of the investigator who had jumped off the building.
"So it's you." Chen Ge still had a trump card, and that was Yan Danian's ability. However, he did not dare to use it carelessly, because the other party had seen this ability before, and it was very likely that they had already made preparations for it.
"Killing two birds with one stone. Our original target was you. You are too dangerous to live in this city. " The black robed man took out a small bottle from his sleeve. It was filled with half a bottle of blood. He shook it lightly, and red and black blood vessels crawled out from the blood. "Enjoy your freedom a little longer. In a while, it will be your turn."
The Red Specter stopped the crazed villagers. The black robed man did not waste time. He opened the cap and placed the bottle on Jiang Ling's head.
"These blood vessels were found behind the 'door'. They are the most precious thing. They have many uses, and they hide the biggest secret of the Red Specter." The situation was completely under the black robed man's control. His eyes stared at the blood vessels crawling out from the bottle, and he was highly focused. "Once you're entangled by these blood vessels, even a Red Specter won't be able to escape."
Chen Ge stared at the bottle in the black robed man's hand. The blood vessels slid down the side of the bottle and touched Jiang Ling's hair.
"If the ritual between Jiang Ling and the female ghost is interrupted, it'll be even harder to leave." Chen Ge patted his backpack, turned around, and touched the white cat's head. "This is the moment of life and death. Later, go and remove that bottle. Remember, the bottle in his hand!"
Chen Ge raised his finger to point at the black robed man's palm. Chen Ge was not sure whether the white cat understood him or not.
The blood vessels might affect the Red Specter's mind. Once the female ghost was controlled by the black robed man, there would be no chance of a comeback that night. Therefore, Chen Ge had to give it his all. He had to use all the tools and ghosts he had to protect Jiang Ling and the woman in the coffin.
There was not much time left for Chen Ge, and he was not one to hesitate. Just as the blood vessels were about to crawl into the back of the girl's head, he grabbed the hammer and charged at the black robed man!
"You overestimate yourself." The black robed man did not even move. His fingers were frozen.
When Chen Ge was two to three meters away, the Red Specter with faces escaped from the surrounding villagers and blocked Chen Ge's way with a strange smile on his face.
"Yan Danian!"
The uncle in the comic seemed to know that if he did not help now, he would die as well. He picked up the pen and started to draw the Red Specter on the paper.
With the last stroke, the Red Specter paused. Chen Ge did not stop. He swung the hammer at the black robed man. This was a rare opportunity!
"I won't make the same mistake twice." The black robed man's free hand dropped a bunch of paper dolls.
The paper dolls wailed as they charged at Chen Ge, trying to crawl on his body.
The Red Specter's movement was hindered, and the situation was dire. However, Chen Ge was as calm as he had ever been. He grabbed the backpack and swung it at the black robed man.
"You sure are resilient." The black robed man shielded the bottle and used his free hand to catch the backpack. However, he just grabbed the strap of the backpack when a white shadow suddenly jumped out from it!
Even though he had created many ghost stories, he was stunned at that moment. "What is this?"
The white cat had no idea what Chen Ge was talking about. It only felt that the bottle gave it a strange feeling.
It opened its mouth to bite the bottle. The white cat jumped off the black robed man and leaped onto the roof.
"A cat?"
The crazed villagers, the black robed man, and Chen Ge were all attracted by the white cat on the roof. Its pure white fur did not fit in with this blood red world.
"Well done!" Chen Ge shouted, but what happened next shocked him.
With the bottle in its mouth, the white cat tilted its head to look at the group of people below. Its small head shook left and right, and the blood vessels that had slid to the top of the bottle fell into its mouth.
