Chapter 086
I was surprised and delighted, it turns out there really are people like this in the world.
He seemed very scared, and the expression on his face was only terrified from beginning to end. I really wanted to talk to him and ask him how he survived all these years, but the hanged ghost pulled me and I realized that I still had something to do.
I looked at him again, then raised my foot and prepared to continue rushing towards the rear of the car.
But just as I was about to move, the man suddenly shouted at me. He looked at the candle in my hand, but did not approach me. He asked me from a distance, "You are not... also a Yin Banner, are you?"
I quickly shook my head and said no. But I saw from his expression that he seemed unwilling to believe it. However, at the beginning, even Ding Ding had misunderstood it. However, I would not easily tell him about the blood amber. After all, the fewer people who know about it, the better.
I glanced out the window and said to him, I don't have time to talk to you now. I have to deal with things here first.
After saying that, I took a step to leave, but suddenly I saw a few ghosts crawling along the roof of the carriage outside the narrow intersection at the front of the carriage.
I thought something was wrong and cursed inwardly, these things had actually gotten into the car!
Those ghostly figures were lying on the roof of the car, clinging to it like geckos. They looked up at me, then suddenly used their hands and feet and sped towards me in fear.
I know that my face must be very ugly right now. Although no one else in the car knows what happened, as long as they can see and look up, they will find that above their heads, there are distorted figures wriggling.
The man who looked like Yin Fan also saw it. His body stiffened and he almost fell off the bed.
I don't know how these ghosts got in, but it seems impossible for me to get to the rear of the car now.
At this moment, I didn't have time to think about it, I turned around and prepared to run away. The man hurriedly got up from the ground and ran after me.
When I saw his look, I felt inexplicably relieved. This man has lived for more than 20 years, and he must have escaped for his life time and time again. Compared with him, my experience of nearly a month is nothing.
But I am still quite lucky, because not only do I have someone like Tintin who can exorcise ghosts around me, but my mother also helped me design many ways to save my life.
We fled towards the front of the train, but there were so many people in the aisle that we could not be faster than those ghosts climbing on the ceiling, and we were about to be caught up by them!
The hanged ghost was the last one. He swung the rope in his hand, just like the noose used by western cowboys, and immediately caught the ghost that was chasing him first. He waved his hand and pulled hard, and the ghost was dragged down from the ceiling and smashed to the ground. It even hit a passenger's thermos, which flew out and broke into pieces.
I cheered secretly, but when I turned around, I realized that it only delayed a few seconds. More and more ghosts were crawling out of the entrance, and it was useless to rely on just one hanged ghost.
I hurriedly called out to him, asking him to follow. The passengers around me who didn't know the situation looked at me strangely for a while, perhaps thinking that I had gone out without taking medicine or something.
The man and I finally squeezed out of the aisle. There was a small sink leading to the next carriage, and the bathroom was opposite. I could see those ghosts behind us were about to catch up with us. If we continued to run into the aisle, we would probably not be able to take a few steps.
In a hurry, I could only kick the bathroom door open. Fortunately, it was bedtime and no one was inside. I hoped that these ghosts would not be able to penetrate in, so that I could wait here until Ding Ding came to find me.
I jumped in in two or three steps, but I didn't expect that the man was so scared that he would run away. I thought we were in the same boat, so I could help him, so I quickly shouted to the hanged man and asked him to drag the man in.
The hanged ghost was very good at this. He swung the rope, just like he had tied me up before, and directly tied up the man who looked like a Yin Banner. Then he pulled hard, and the man staggered and almost lost his balance. But before he could react, he was dragged into the bathroom by the hanged ghost.
As soon as I saw him coming in, I pushed the door and tried to lock it, but I didn't expect that in this moment, the ghosts behind me had already caught up with me and grabbed the door. A shriveled and blackened hand pressed tightly against the door lock! The man screamed in fear and pushed me hard to squeeze in!
The bathroom was already crowded with two people and a hanged man, and now he pushed me like that and I hit the water pipe behind me. I didn't know where I hit, but it hurt so much that I couldn't breathe and almost fainted.
Fortunately, the hanged man pulled me up, otherwise I would have fallen into the toilet. But I was really angry at this time, so I gave the man a crutch to get out of the way! Just at this moment, the black hand on the bathroom door pushed, and a shriveled and withered head poked in. I saw that the face looked like a mummy in a museum, very scary, and the skin had almost completely shrunk and stuck to the muscles. But he kept opening his mouth to bite me!
I was still angry, so I kicked him on the head, sending him flying. The hand that was blocking the door let go, and I slammed the door shut.
The whole process took only a few seconds. When it was over, I realized how quick and efficient I was. It was probably the first time the hanged ghost had seen me like this. He gave me a thumbs up with surprise on his face.
This was the first time I was praised for ghosts, and I was a little happy, but now was not the time to be happy. Because I could clearly feel that more and more ghosts were gathering outside the bathroom, and they were like human bombs, hitting the door hard. Even outside the bathroom window, the ghosts were trying to climb in through the window.
I don't know how long we can hide here, because the bathroom here is not surrounded by walls, but just a layer of baffles. Under the continuous impact, there is a tendency to shake faintly.
I was extremely nervous, and so was the other man. He was obviously much more scared than I was. He didn't even dare to look out the window. His breathing was rapid, and he looked like he would collapse at any moment.
I had a lot of questions I wanted to ask him, but now I had no mood to talk. I held the candle that Tintin had given me, and the will-o'-the-wisp on it was still burning tepidly, as if no matter how I shook it, the flame would not go out.
The three of us waited inside for a long time, listening to the constant banging sounds coming from outside the bathroom. I didn't dare to imagine what the scene outside would be like. I don't know how long it took, but suddenly I heard someone calling my name. I listened carefully and it seemed to be Ding Ding.
I was overjoyed and hurriedly responded with a shout. Then I heard Ding Ding cursing outside, saying that the road was full of ghosts and he couldn't get through at all! He also blamed me for saying that I had never done the things he asked me to do!
My mood, which had just relaxed a little, suddenly became depressed again. I could only ask him inside if there was nothing he could do.
Tintin was also shouting outside, saying that in the current situation, he could only use the bow.
I was silent for a moment. This was probably the last resort. But when I saw the hanged ghost, I saw that he was a little panicked. I couldn't help but ask one more question, "Tin Ding, do you have any way to hide the hanged ghost first?"
Ding Ding said we left in such a hurry that we didn’t bring anything with us. It would be fine if there was an onizuka, but now we didn’t bring anything with us, so what can we do?
I felt a little distressed, but I didn't expect the man next to me to suddenly pull me and stammered, "I have Onitsuka..."
I was stunned for a moment, and then I saw him take out a small red jar the size of his palm from his bag and wave it in front of me.
I was delighted and didn't ask about the origin of the ghost mound. I took it and said something to the hanged ghost. He quickly got into the ghost mound. I closed the lid and shouted to Ding Ding, saying that it was okay. If the little ghost had no problem, he could do it.
Unexpectedly, Ding Ding ignored me completely, and I didn't know whether he had started to act or not, because the collision noises around me were so loud that I couldn't hear any other noises outside.
I nervously looked at the ghosts outside the window, and after a while, I suddenly saw their voices tremble, just like a person shuddering, some weak ones suddenly slowly dispersed. The rest were all very scary-looking wandering souls. But when I saw their voices suddenly become a little vague, as if several shadows were shaking, I immediately realized that Ding Ding had taken action.
The whole process lasted for a very short time, it felt like only a few minutes. The collision sound outside the bathroom gradually became smaller and finally calmed down, and all the ghosts outside the window disappeared. Although many of them ran away in the middle, I clearly saw that some of them were shaken into several shadows and then disappeared.
I slowly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the man next to me. I saw that his face was also full of excitement and it looked like he was about to cry.
We waited until Ding Ding shouted outside that everything was fine before we slowly opened the bathroom door and walked out.
Coming out of that narrow place, I felt refreshed. As soon as we came out, someone rushed in and looked at us with contempt. I guess he was so suffocated that he was probably one of the people knocking on the door just now.
Tintin was standing aside, holding a bow and arrow in his hands, looking really like a charlatan. He saw me first and was about to say something, but suddenly he saw the man following behind me. His face changed, he was silent for a while, and suddenly he shouted, asking why there was a Yin Banner!
