The night was as cold as water.
After being roasted for so long, it was good to have such a cool night. If it was in the past, there would be many people strolling along this avenue. Tonight, only Zhang Fei was walking here.
Ever since the plague broke out in Gu Gu Yang Academy, Gu Gu Yang had been in a state of panic. It was still unknown how the plague spread, and how to treat it. They only knew that people infected with this plague would end their lives in various cruel ways. Hundreds of people had died in the plague.
The government had not found a solution to the plague. They only used the army to seal off the Ancient Ocean, not allowing outsiders to enter the Ancient Ocean, and not allowing the people of the Ancient Ocean to leave. If anyone tried to enter or leave the Ancient Ocean, they would receive the most severe punishment. The army could shoot anyone who tried to violate this rule.
Without the ability to control this plague, they could only use extreme measures to seal off the Gu Xiu Ocean to prevent the plague from spreading. This was truly a helpless method. However, the plague did not spread. People in the Ancient Ocean were constantly infected and died from self-harm in various ways.
Some people thought that this was not a plague but a delusion, but it was not accepted by most people.
In this season, very few people were willing to go out at night. In fact, very few people were willing to go out even during the day. It was not only because they were afraid of being infected by the plague, but also because the public security in Gu Yang was very bad recently.
Gu Xiyang was already an area abandoned by the government. How could it be safe?
If Zhang Fei wasn't in an extremely low mood today, she wouldn't have come out to stroll either. There were many reasons for being depressed, but it had nothing to do with her menstrual cycle. Walking alone on such a road felt very eerie. Zhang Fei was also a little afraid. However, since he was already here, nothing mattered anymore.
"Help me."
A man came out of nowhere and approached Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei subconsciously pushed the man away, but she did not touch anything. Although that man was right beside her, it was as if he did not exist at all. She could not touch his body at all.
"You?"
The man looked about the same age as Zhang Fei and looked very kind. He explained," I'm not a bad person. Don't worry.”
Zhang Fei saw that the man was standing under the street lamp, but there was actually no shadow.
Zhang Fei was also a student of the Ancient Western Academy. That was the place where the plague first appeared, and also the place with the most deaths. There was a saying in the ancient Western Academy that so many people died not because of the plague, but because of…evil spirits.
"Are you a ghost?"
"I'm a ghost hunter." the man said solemnly.
"Ghost hunters?"
"Yes, I'm a Yaksha who specializes in capturing evil ghosts. I need your help now."
"How can I help you?"
The man smiled darkly." As long as you stay by my side." In fact, you can't reject me at all. Even if you want to escape, I'll catch up with you very quickly.”
"Hooligan!"
Male (Male ghost?) Seeing that Zhang Fei didn't refuse, he finally heaved a sigh of relief and said,"From now on, it's best if you don't look back."”
"Tsk! I just have to turn around and see what's going on!”
"What a disobedient child."
Zhang Fei heard the sound of footsteps behind her and turned around. As expected, she saw two Minotaurs. The two Cowhead Monsters were about 2.5 meters tall, and their bodies were sturdy, not inferior to professional bodybuilders. Her upper body was naked, she was holding a wolf fang club, and her lower body was wrapped in a short hemp skirt.
The two minotaurs glared at the male ghost and said something. They were only a hundred steps away from Zhang Fei, and their voices were quite loud. It was just that the intonation of their voices was very vague, and it was very difficult for Zhang Fei to hear them clearly.
The two minotaurs turned around a corner and disappeared.
The male ghost patted his chest when he saw the two Minotaurs disappear." That was scary."”
"You don't seem human, do you?" Zhang Fei teased.
"Can't Yakshas call themselves humans? I want to call myself a human."
"Why are you afraid of those two monsters?”Zhang Fei discovered that she was really bold. It was her first time facing a ghost, and she actually felt familiar so quickly, even speaking freely.
"The two of them are the officials of the underworld. They want to capture me and bring me back.”
"Didn't you say that you're a good person? Or…a good ghost?"
"Those corrupt fellows in the Underworld have long lost the meaning of their existence. Although I'm a fugitive, I'm a kind and righteous person.”
Zhang Fei suddenly recalled the legend in the academy. Those people didn't die from the plague, but were killed by evil spirits. "Recently, many people have died here. Does it have anything to do with you?"
" What?!" The man roared," Do you think I killed him? How could a kind and righteous person like me do such a thing? Do I look like a bad person to you?"
"Bad or not, it has nothing to do with looks, right?”
The man shook his head and said," I don't have any concrete evidence to make you believe that I'm not a bad person. Many people died here, and I came here precisely for this matter. I'm a yaksha who catches ghosts. I can't tolerate evil spirits harming the people.”
"In that case, so many people died. Was it really the work of ghosts?”
"It's not a ghost, it's an evil ghost." The man emphasized," There are many types of ghosts, and not all of them are bad. For example, I am a very kind and righteous person. Even though I am a ghost. Not only do I not harm people, but I also go around catching evil spirits.”
"Then, why does Yin Si still want to capture you?”
"Yin Si? To hell with those rotten systems!”The man said disdainfully.
"Aren't all the underworld ghosts?" What Zhang Fei meant was that there was something wrong with the word "ghost".
However, the man did not understand the meaning of Zhang Fei's ridicule at all. Instead, he looked at Zhang Fei as if he was looking at an idiot." The underworld, of course, is full of ghosts. Nonsense."”
"Did I help you just now?"
"Of course. You have enough yang energy on you. Those bull-headed ghosts are afraid of your yang energy, so they avoid you. Ghosts were usually afraid of Yang qi.”
"Aren't you a ghost too?"
"Although I am a ghost, I am not an ordinary ghost. Why am I afraid of Yang Qi like those low-level ghosts? I'm the great Yaksha!"
