157: The original intention! The dean! The tape!

“...”

As Wu Tian’s words fell, the figure speaking from inside the television paused, seemingly not expecting Wu Tian’s reaction!

Damn it!

A human… oh no!

These three humans, not one of them panicked upon seeing him.

They didn’t even question how the unpowered player started.

This… is a bit ridiculous, isn’t it?

But then… the figure in the television slowly regained his composure.

Heh heh!

He smiled confidently to himself.

The disheveled figure on the television confidently reassured himself.

Compared to these three living people, he was the scariest and most mysterious ghost in this world. Their lack of questioning only meant they were thoughtless.

It didn’t mean they weren’t afraid of him.

Perhaps… these people were simple-minded?

Hmm!

The ghost in the television slowly nodded. It must be so!

These people might be idiots!

Heh heh… I was too nervous.

“...”

“Hey!”

Just as the disheveled ghost in the television was lost in thought, Wu Tian and the other two, who were waiting in front of the television, grew impatient.

Bang bang!

Frowning, Wu Tian called out and then slammed the television several times.

“Aren’t you supposed to ask questions, you damn thing?”

“Where are the questions?”

“Hurry up!”

“Ask them!”

“...”

The ghost in the television was stunned.

How… how come these people were more anxious than him? The ones thinking were more eager than the one causing death. What… what kind of operation was this?

He shook his head.

Never mind!

The ghost in the television looked at the three people in front of him through the black hair covering his face.

“Heh heh…”

“I’m here!”

“I have three questions. You must answer them carefully. If you answer incorrectly…”

“All of you will fall into hell, never to reincarnate!”

The ghost in the television said all this in one breath, then proceeded to ask the first question.

“The first question…”

“...”

“Wait!”

Suddenly!

Wu Tian, who was listening intently in front of the television screen, suddenly interrupted the ghost’s voice from inside the television.

The ghost was stunned.

“What else is it?”

“Hmm…”

Wu Tian slowly frowned.

He looked at the disheveled ghost in the television and asked seriously.

“You said if we answer incorrectly, we’ll fall into hell, never to reincarnate, but…”

Wu Tian spread his hands.

“You didn’t say what happens if we answer correctly?”

“...”

The ghost in the television was stunned.

Then he looked at Wu Tian and the other two, utterly bewildered, and began to think frantically.

“Right!”

“If they answer correctly…”

“What happens?”

“...”

Damn it!

What kind of question was this? In over thirty years, he had never considered this question!

Because… no one had ever answered his questions correctly.

He tilted his head.

It seemed… everyone’s reactions were only a few types.

Either they were so scared they soiled themselves the moment he appeared, rolling their eyes and collapsing to the ground.

Or they fled in a panic, getting lost in Gonjiam Psychiatric Hospital.

Even the braver ones.

At most, they would tremble and answer the first question incorrectly, being dragged into the television’s world by him.

Let alone completing all three questions!

Not even one person had answered the first question correctly!

What if they answered all of them correctly?

“...”

The ghost in the television pondered for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up. Through the long, dark hair covering his face, he said excitedly to Wu Tian.

“If you answer all of them correctly…”

“I’ll let you leave this place!”

“...”

“Phew…”

“Phew…”

As the television ghost’s voice fell, Zhang Meng and the fat man standing behind Wu Tian both let out a sigh of relief.

“Heh heh…”

“That’s good. If we answer correctly, you’ll let us leave. Big Sister, you must keep your word!”

The fat man smiled amiably at the television ghost.

“Right!”

“Hurry up and ask. It’s just three questions, isn’t it?”

“As long as we answer correctly, we can leave!”

“Three heads are better than one!”

“Heh heh…”

“...”

Zhang Meng also chuckled, looking at the television ghost and saying.

“Good!”

The television ghost nodded, about to pose the first question to the three.

Suddenly… “No!”

Wu Tian shook his head seriously.

“Why do you want to let us go?”

“You don’t need to let us go!”

“...”

Looking at the stunned television ghost, Wu Tian continued to frown and said.

“If I successfully answer all three questions, what I want isn’t for you to let us go. What I want is for you to take me in!”

“...”

“Go in?”

Now it was the television ghost’s turn to be bewildered.

“Go in where?”

Wu Tian spread his hands.

“Wherever you are now, that’s where I want to go. You’re not going to tell me…”

“I can’t enter this television, can I?”

“...”

The television ghost paused, then grinned and laughed loudly.

A hoarse voice, like sawing wood, enveloped Wu Tian and the other two.

“Hahaha!”

“Good!”

“It’s rare for someone to ask to enter the television. Alright!”

“I promise you!”

“As long as you answer my three questions correctly, I’ll pull all three of you in, heh heh…”

“To keep me company!”

“...”

Fat man: … Zhang Meng: … “Gulp…”

The fat man slowly swallowed, looking at the woman in the television screen and whispering.

“All three of us?”

“Hey, look carefully, he’s the one who asked you to take him in, not us. We’re not going in!”

“We never said that!”

“Heh heh…”

“...”

“Less nonsense!”

The television ghost disdainfully glanced at the flustered fat man, then immediately posed the first question to the three.

“Listen to my first question!”

“Please tell me…”

“If I saw a thief stealing something, and I, in an act of bravery, chased him, but the thief suddenly died of a heart attack while fleeing!”

“What should I do?”

“Should I be held responsible?”

“...”

As the television ghost’s voice fell.

The dilapidated tent immediately fell into silence.

This question… was not simple!

Often, such open-ended questions contained the most difficult standard answers. One wrong move and they wouldn’t hit the point of the question.

Or they wouldn’t hit the television ghost’s heart!

And if they didn’t, they would likely be defeated at the first question!

“...”

“Hmm…”

Just as everyone was silent, and the smile on the television ghost’s lips grew wider.

Wu Tian pondered for a moment.

Then slowly spoke a sentence.

“Did you chase him?”

“Weren’t you just running?”

“...”

As soon as Wu Tian said this, the entire scene was shocked!

The fat man and Zhang Meng slowly opened their mouths wide, amazed!

And the television ghost looked as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes, visible through his hair, filled with terror… “Hiss…”

After a few breaths.

The television ghost slowly took a deep, cold breath!

He exclaimed loudly.

“Brilliant!”

“Tsk tsk!”

“This human, your thought process is truly incredible. Our ghost thought processes are not even half as good as yours!”

“Good!”

“This first question is considered passed by you!”

“Keep it up!”

“I’m rooting for you!”

“...”

As the television ghost’s voice sounded from inside the television, the fat man and Zhang Meng were instantly bewildered, their mouths agape, their eyes constantly darting between Wu Tian and the television.

“Hiss…”

“Absurd!”

The fat man couldn't help but say.

Bang!

Zhang Meng directly slapped the back of his head.

She said earnestly to him.

“What do you mean, absurd?”

“You don’t know anything!”

“This is called unexpected, yet reasonable!”

“...”

After a long while… the fat man slowly nodded, indicating his agreement with Zhang Meng’s words.

Then a burning fighting spirit ignited in his heart!

“Understood!”

“Boss, with your inspiration, I will work hard!”

“I’ll try to answer the next question too!”

“Heh heh!”

“...”

As the fat man’s simple laughter rang out, the ghost in the television slowly nodded. After steadying his mind, he asked Wu Tian again.

“Alright!”

“Next is the second question.”

“The three of you…”

“I have witnessed the hearts of many people, and I have seen the most evil within them. In fact, what I saw most in the depths of many people’s hearts was the desire to rob banks to get rich, but these people…”

The ghost tilted his head.

“They never thought of a foolproof plan!”

“So…”

The television ghost’s voice grew chilling.

“Heh heh…”

“I killed them all. Now!”

“You tell me, if one were to rob a bank, what kind of preparations would be safest?”

“...”

Everyone was stunned.

It was another open-ended question.

This question was even more difficult than the first.

Moreover… when the fat man, Zhang Meng, and Wu Tian compared this question to the first, they discovered with disappointed faces that this question couldn’t be approached with the same thought process as the first!

Then… they could only refer to the many words the television ghost had just spoken.

Could it be… that these words contained another mystery?

“...”

Suddenly!

Just as everyone was deep in thought.

The fat man’s furrowed brow relaxed slightly. He scratched his head and tentatively asked the ghost in the television screen.

“I have a guess, I wonder if I should speak it?”

“Speak!”

The television ghost immediately encouraged him!

“Gulp…”

The fat man slowly swallowed.

He spoke eagerly.

“Actually, a foolproof plan isn’t difficult. At its core…”

The fat man held up a finger.

“A coffin is enough!”

“...”

Whoosh!

As the fat man’s voice fell, whether it was Wu Tian or Zhang Meng, or even the television ghost inside the television!

They all looked at the fat man with an extremely shocked expression.

“Hiss…”

The television ghost even took a cold breath.

Buzz!

The temperature in the entire tent space dropped by two degrees.

Then he composed himself.

He asked the fat man eagerly.

“This fat… Esteemed Fat Man!”

“Please tell me!”

“How did you come up with this answer?”

“...”

“This…”

“This is simple!”

The somewhat scared fat man, seeing the supportive looks from Wu Tian and Zhang Meng, suddenly grew bolder.

He began to elaborate on his answer.

“When you posed the question, you said you saw the evil in these people’s hearts, and from that, I deduced that you absolutely dislike their obsession with robbing banks.”

“Therefore!”

The fat man had a look of great righteousness.

“Adhering to the principle of bold conjecture and careful verification!”

“I believe!”

“The outcome for these bank-robbing scoundrels is bound to be failure, so…”

“A coffin is their best resting place!”

“...”

At this point… the fat man seemed to still have more to say. He licked his lips and looked sincerely at the television ghost on the screen.

He added a sentence.

“Heh heh…”

“Isn’t this just a matter of having a brain?”

“...”

As the fat man’s words fell, suddenly… the temperature in the entire tent plummeted. Then… a cold wind howled, the light instantly dimmed, and the television ghost in the television slowly entered a berserk mode!

A low growl sounded from the television.

“Ugh…”

“Ugh ah!”

“Why?”

“It’s just a question that requires a brain, why did I think for almost three years and still not figure it out?”

“Why?”

"Why have I never thought of such a simple answer?"

"Isn't it enough to have a brain?"

"..."

Listening to the ghost on the TV roar, a glint flashed in Wu Tian's eyes. He caught a crucial piece of information from the TV ghost's words!

Three years!

The time of this TV ghost's death should also be three years ago.

So, the ghost inside the TV should be one of the young people who came here to explore three years ago.

Could she... know something?

Thinking of this, Wu Tian's eyes brightened slightly.

After a moment of thought, he spoke gently to the TV ghost.

"Sigh!"

"Don't dwell on it, because you don't have a brain."

"But don't panic, you don't have a brain, but we do!"

"Good girl!"

"Ask your third question!"

"We'll help you think of the answer together!"

"..."

Listening to Wu Tian's words, which seemed to be comforting but also not quite, Fatty and Zhang Meng were instantly shocked!

They anxiously turned their gaze towards the TV, fearing that the TV ghost, already on the verge of a breakdown, would completely lose it after hearing Wu Tian's words!

That... would be bad!

"... Hmm?"

However... just as Fatty and Zhang Meng looked on worriedly, the TV ghost suddenly stopped her rage.

Instead, her emotions slowly calmed down.

She looked at Wu Tian, who had a sincere expression in front of the TV, and nodded.

"Right!"

"You're right!"

"I don't have a brain, so I definitely can't figure out these problems!"

"I'm sorry, everyone!"

"I lost my composure!"

"Hehe..."

With a gentle laugh, the TV ghost emerged from her previous negative emotions, and the surrounding temperature slowly warmed up as she did.

The darkened tent slowly returned to normal light levels.

"..."

"Alright!"

"Next is the third question!"

"Three of you, please listen to the question!"

The TV ghost asked Wu Tian and the other two the third question.

"..."

"Besides encountering some truly evil people in these past three years, I've also met some people whose brains didn't work so well. Let's just..."

The TV ghost tilted her head.

"Call them mentally ill or intellectually disabled!"

"Hmm!"

"That should be right!"

"Suddenly one day, I was pulled into this TV by an intellectually disabled person, and they gave me a difficult problem!"

"Only by figuring out the answer to this problem."

"Can I be freed from this TV."

"The problem is:"

"Use the four characters 'Daydreaming' (bái rì zuò mèng - daydreaming/wishful thinking) to form a sentence, the shorter the better!"

"..."

Wu Tian and the other two were stunned, then exchanged glances.

Form a sentence?

This is so simple!

Even a child can do it.

And... the shorter the better, isn't that also very simple?

Immediately, Fatty, after a brief thought, said to the TV ghost.

"You're daydreaming!"

"..."

"No..."

The TV ghost slowly shook her head.

"This question is very simple, even someone without a brain could do it, so I also tried to think for a long time, and I considered the question that this Mr. Fatty just posed."

"But..."

"It's not right!"

The TV ghost shook her head.

"Even that sentence is too long!"

"..."

"Too long?"

"That's too long?"

Fatty was shocked!

Isn't that the shortest sentence that uses this idiom?

Only one word added to form a complete sentence.

Could it be... that such a sentence still doesn't meet the requirements?

"Hiss..."

He couldn't help but gasp, and Fatty turned his pleading gaze to Wu Tian and Zhang Meng beside him.

Damn it!

This sentence-forming task is too difficult.

To make a sentence with four characters.

Isn't five characters the minimum?

"..."

Just as Fatty looked at Zhang Meng, he saw a hint of eagerness flash across her face!

"I..."

"I have an idea!"

"Oh?"

Fatty was surprised!

Wu Tian was surprised.

Even the TV ghost inside the TV was surprised.

They all looked at Zhang Meng, whose face was slightly red, and showed three expectant expressions towards her.

"Speak..."

"Hurry up and speak!"

"Why are you just standing there?"

"..."

"Uh..."

"Then I'll say it, okay?"

Zhang Meng paused, then looked at the people around her and the TV ghost inside the TV, confirming in a low voice.

"..."

"Sigh!"

Wu Tian rolled his eyes.

"Just say it, what's there to hesitate about!"

"..."

"Alright then!"

Zhang Meng nodded, then cleared her throat.

"Cough, cough..."

"Then I'll say it!"

Saying that, Zhang Meng looked at Wu Tian beside her, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she softly spoke a sentence in front of everyone.

"Daydream? Wishful thinking!"

"..."

"..."

As Zhang Meng's words fell, everyone present was momentarily dumbfounded.

"You..."

The TV ghost was the first to react.

She asked Zhang Meng again in an excited tone, confirming.

"What did you say?"

"Say it again?"

"Uh..."

"I said..."

"Daydream? Wishful thinking!"

Zhang Meng repeated her words in front of everyone!

Instantly... everyone was dumbfounded.

It wasn't until several seconds passed that Wu Tian was the first to react again.

"Hmm!"

"This sentence indeed fits the 'shortest' requirement, well done!"

"Little sister."

"This should be the answer you're looking for, right?"

"..."

"Yes..."

As Wu Tian's questioning voice fell, the disheveled woman in the TV slowly swayed.

Then, her hoarse voice, filled with intense excitement, said to the group.

"Yes!"

"This... this is the answer I've been looking for. This answer..."

"It's just too perfect!"

"I..."

"I'm so excited, why didn't I think of it before?"

"Why?"

"Why not?"

The TV ghost's emotions began to destabilize again. As her voice rang out, the temperature inside the dilapidated tent plummeted once more.

The light filtering through the tree gaps into the tent also began to flicker.

"Oh?"

"Here we go again?"

"..."

Wu Tian frowned. He closed his eyes and then reopened them, his dark pupils instantly turning golden. His eyeballs rotated.

Using the power of his Yin Eye, Wu Tian looked at the scene inside the tent... a slight curve appeared at the corner of his mouth... And it was at this moment!

The female ghost in the TV instantly went mad. She began to frantically tear at her own hair with her hands, and a tragic scream filled the entire tent.

"Ah!"

"Why?"

"Why did I answer all three questions correctly, yet you still won't let me go?"

"..."

"No!"

"I don't want to!"

"I've been here for three years, I don't want to stay here anymore!"

"I can't take it!"

"Ah..."

The TV ghost howled and became increasingly frantic, directly crashing and rolling wildly within the TV screen.

And with her impacts... cracks began to appear on the entire black-cased TV.

The screen slowly blurred!

Then... crack!

A huge sound rang out.

The black TV screen instantly shattered, and shards of glass flew directly towards Wu Tian and the others.

The wind howled... these glass shards seemed to carry immense power.

One wrong move... and they might be embedded in flesh.

"..."

"Hmph!"

Just then, Wu Tian snorted coldly and let out a low cry.

"Tianlus Claw!"

Then... buzz!

A phantom of a six-fingered beast claw instantly appeared on Wu Tian's hands. The crimson beast claw carried an unrivaled power to ward off evil.

Wu Tian crossed his hands.

With a poker face, he forcefully tore at the flying glass fragments in front of him!

Roar!

"Give me..."

"Break!"

Boom!

The hurricane howled, the tent billowed!

Under Wu Tian's powerful and heavy claw, which carried a strong wind pressure, all the glass shards flying towards Wu Tian and the others were instantly sent flying!

Dust settled!

A spark flashed in the TV, then slowly quieted down.

The entire space within the tent... became quiet again.

"..."

"Holy crap!"

"Boss, when did you learn that move?"

"Tsk tsk, it doesn't look simple."

Fatty's face was full of pleasant surprise, completely unfazed by the strange incident.

Are you kidding?

He already had experience with this kind of thing back in Peach Blossom Garden.

When in doubt, unleash Wu Tian!

If Wu Tian can't handle it, run!

It's not time to run yet... why worry about anything!

So, Fatty, staring at Wu Tian, said with a face full of admiration.

"Honestly!"

"I've followed you, Boss Shifu, for so long, do I now qualify to learn your amazing Eastern magic?"

"..."

Wu Tian's mouth twitched.

At a time like this, this dead Fatty was still being glib.

He immediately snapped at the latter.

"Learn what? You idiot, did you learn the finger carving I taught you last time?"

"..."

Fatty froze, then shut his mouth.

He secretly grumbled to himself.

"Hmph... Don't think I haven't read those Eastern novels of yours. Finger carving with two fingers, is that something a human can do?"

"Only in novels would they dare to write such things."

"Where is this?"

"This is reality!"

"Hmph... unreliable Shifu..."

... Not hearing Fatty's internal grumbling, Wu Tian looked at the tent, which had suddenly become quiet and showed no anomalies.

The corner of his mouth curled up slightly.

In the bewildered gazes of Zhang Meng and Fatty, Wu Tian said softly.

"Come out, stop hiding."

"I know you're perfectly fine!"

"Stop hiding!"

"We mean no harm!"

"..."

The tent remained silent for a long time, and no one responded to Wu Tian's voice.

Fatty finally couldn't hold back.

He whispered to Wu Tian.

"Boss..."

"Who are you talking to?"

"..."

"Her!"

Wu Tian had clearly lost all patience. With his golden-glowing pupils, Wu Tian stretched out his finger and pointed to a corner of the tent!

"The ghost that was in the TV just now!"

"She's right there!"

"..."

"Hehe..."

Suddenly! Just as Wu Tian definitively pointed out the female ghost's location, a cold laugh rang out from the corner.

"You're not simple."

"You found me!"

"It seems... you are different from every other person who has come here before."

Perhaps because she had solved the three riddles, the female ghost's mind was slightly clearer.

Her speech also became more logical.

"..."

"You're also different."

Wu Tian said indifferently.

"I originally thought that after escaping, you would immediately attack us, find a substitute, and leave here."

"At the very least..."

"Kill us, and you'd have companions here."

"But the strange thing is this."

Wu Tian looked at the female ghost slowly revealing herself in the corner.

He frowned and asked, "Why do you only want to hide and wait for us to leave?"

"..."

As Wu Tian's words fell, the entire tent fell into silence.

Then... the female ghost's tragic laugh echoed in the tent again.

"You are people from Long Country, right?"

"I remember you Long Country people have a saying, it's called..."

"'Do not do to others what you would not have them do to you'?"

"Am I right?"

"Hehe..."

Although this female ghost was emaciated, her hair was disheveled and dry like hay, and she was still wearing a patient gown with dark red bloodstains on it.

However… the words she spoke at that moment!

They made Wu Tian and his two companions, as well as the Fans watching the live broadcast, regard her with solemn respect.

“…”

“I was trapped here back then, tormented by the people here for three years. Why should I inflict my pain on you?”

“This way…”

The patient gown female ghost’s voice lowered.

“No good!”

Buzz!

Including Wu Tian and his two companions.

And all the viewers in front of the live stream… after hearing the female ghost’s words.

Their hearts suddenly trembled!

No good!

Just the words “no good”!

They allowed a girl, who had been dead for three years and tormented by other ghosts for three years, and whose heart was filled with resentment and despair, to maintain her true nature in the face of slaughter.

She did not raise her butcher’s knife against Wu Tian and his two companions.

She did not let hatred spread again!

“Hoo…”

The golden glow in Wu Tian’s eyes remained, but the crimson claws on his hands slowly dissipated with the wind.

Looking at the female ghost standing in the corner.

Wu Tian asked her.

“What’s your name?”

“I…”

“My name is Xia Dan!”

“Xiadan (lay eggs)?”

Wu Tian was stunned.

“…”

Whoosh… A fierce Yin wind violently swept through the entire tent as Wu Tian’s words fell.

A chilling aura slowly condensed around Xia Dan, who had not made a move against Wu Tian and his two companions, no matter what.

“My name is Xia Dan!”

“Not… Xiadan (lay eggs)!”

“Ai~”

Wu Tian waved his hand.

“It’s all the same, all the same.”

“Anyway, it sounds the same when we pronounce it in Longguo Hua, so don’t mind these details.”

“By the way…”

Wu Tian quickly changed the topic.

“Were you part of that exploration team in 2018?”

“What did you encounter in this Gonjiam Psychiatric Hospital?”

“Why did no one come out?”

“…”

Wu Tian mentioned the year they had an accident and the Gonjiam Psychiatric Hospital, and Xia Dan’s angry expression slowly disappeared!

Replaced by… a bone-chilling fear!

“I don’t remember much…”

Xia Dan said disjointedly.

“I only remember that we were trying to complete some live broadcast mission at the time, and we would get a large sum of money after completing it!”

“With that money, we could do whatever we wanted.”

“So, our group came here.”

“At first…”

Xia Dan continued.

“We didn’t encounter anything strange. We even had a meal in this tent.”

“At midnight, each of us took two GoPros and headed to the Mental Hospital.”

“We successfully reached the inside of the Gonjiam Psychiatric Hospital.”

“We…”

The female ghost named Xia Dan scratched her dry hair.

As her hair fell out in handfuls.

Xia Dan’s puzzled voice echoed in the tent again.

“It seems that a motion capture device was set up at the stairwell of each floor. As long as something passed through that spot, the camera would instantly snap a picture!”

“Then we entered the building…”

“I…”

Suddenly!

Just as Xia Dan was about to continue recounting what they had seen and heard in the Mental Hospital… her head!

Before Wu Tian and his two companions’ very eyes, it quickly swelled up!

Then it rolled, disappeared, and reappeared!

Xia Dan’s head seemed to be constantly pushed and pulled by something inside.

It kept changing shape!

“I was wrong!”

“I was wrong, please let me go!”

“I won’t say anything!”

“I…”

“I really won’t say anything anymore!”

“…”

Listening to Xia Dan’s unconscious pleas, Wu Tian’s eyes instantly narrowed, and he maximized his Yin Eye ability, looking towards Xia Dan’s side.

However… in Wu Tian’s eyes, he couldn’t see anything wrong!

Xia Dan’s head seemed to be constantly expanding, stretching, then tearing and healing on its own.

Moreover… Xia Dan’s voice sounded like she was begging someone for mercy!

It’s just that… Wu Tian couldn’t see the presence of any other ghosts.

The light in Wu Tian’s eyes flickered continuously.

The Yin Eye was fine, so this thing probably wasn’t invisible!

Instead… it existed in Xia Dan’s mind.

Whoosh!

Thinking of this, Wu Tian immediately rushed towards Xia Dan, who was not far away. A faint crimson glow appeared on his right hand, and he grabbed Xia Dan’s head with a claw.

A subtle sensation.

It was established between Wu Tian’s right hand and Xia Dan’s head.

“This…”

Just from the sensation, Wu Tian’s expression changed.

He felt that there seemed to be a woman’s face in Xia Dan’s mind.

It was constantly roaring and gnawing at Xia Dan’s brain.

Wu Tian was stunned!

This woman’s face… seemed somewhat familiar!

While he was thinking… Xia Dan’s condition became even more bizarre. Besides her brain, her entire body’s bones and flesh also began to swell madly!

Crack!

Crack!

Snap!

“…”

The sound of bones breaking kept ringing out.

Wu Tian raised an eyebrow and didn’t bother to recall whose face that woman in Xia Dan’s mind belonged to. He slightly exerted force with his right palm’s fingertips, instantly piercing through Xia Dan’s head!

Hiss… Like red-hot iron meeting boiling water!

A thick smoke erupted from Xia Dan’s scalp!

“…”

“Xia Dan!”

Wu Tian called out in a deep voice.

“Xia Dan!”

“Wake up!”

“Wake up, don’t let your mental defenses be breached!”

“I’ll help you remove the thing in your head now. It might hurt a bit, but bear with it!”

“No…”

Suddenly!

Xia Dan refused.

She gritted her teeth, raised her head, and her bloodshot eyes looked at Wu Tian through her dry hair.

“I can’t!”

“She’s in my… head…”

Xia Dan said disjointedly.

“It’s a… a symbiotic… relationship!”

“If she’s gone…”

“I… I’ll die too!”

“…”

Wu Tian was stunned.

The five fingers that were about to pierce into Xia Dan’s head paused slightly, then could no longer go in.

“Then you…”

Wu Tian frowned, about to speak.

“Don’t talk!”

“Listen to me!”

Xia Dan immediately stopped Wu Tian from speaking. Instead, like a final surge of energy, she endured the pain in her body and said to Wu Tian.

“She’s driving my body, wanting to kill you all!”

“I refused her, so she wants to kill me!”

“Hehe…”

Xia Dan’s eyes were bloodshot, and she smiled slightly at everyone.

“Now, to make a long story short, listen to me.”

“Hoo…”

She took a deep breath.

Xia Dan continued.

“This Mental Hospital is far from as simple as you imagine. I’ve seen no less than five hundred ghosts inside!”

“And, she!”

Xia Dan, enduring the pain all over her body, pointed to her head and continued to say to Wu Tian and his two companions.

“The director of the Mental Hospital!”

“Is an even more terrifying existence!”

“Ah…”

“Pain!”

“So much pain!”

“…”

When she mentioned the director.

Xia Dan’s body swelled even more severely, as if she had mentioned an extraordinary existence!

She was being retaliated against by the latter’s even greater power!

“You guys, hurry… hurry and leave!”

“Her name is…”

“Park Hye!”

“Ah…”

“Run!”

“You all… run quickly!”

When Xia Dan mentioned the director’s name, Wu Tian clearly felt the swelling on Xia Dan’s body intensify in his hand.

Immediately… in Wu Tian’s chilling eyes.

Creak… Bang!

The female ghost named Xia Dan’s body exploded!

Turning into gusts of fierce Yin wind that swept over everyone.

Making Zhang Meng and the Fat Man shiver involuntarily.

“Still want to run?!”

Suddenly!

Just as Xia Dan’s body exploded into countless spiritual fragments, Wu Tian’s Tianlu’s Claw, pressed on Xia Dan’s head, clenched!

Boom!

A loud noise.

Aquietgreen object was instantly crushed in Wu Tian’s hand.

The Fat Man and Zhang Meng were instantly startled.

Then the two looked closely!

“A ping-pong paddle?”

“What the hell?”

“This ping-pong paddle is actually green?”

“What kind of ghost is this?”

…Zhang Meng and the Fat Man were instantly bewildered.

Looking at the ping-pong paddle in Wu Tian’s hand, glowing with a faint green light, they were stunned.

The Fat Man scratched his head.

“Didn’t Xia Dan just say that the one inside her body was the director?”

“How come…”

“Is the director a ping-pong paddle?”

“…”

“This is the director Xia Dan mentioned, I can feel it!”

“There are strong soul fluctuations on it!”

“It should… have a deep connection with that director!”

“Uh…”

Zhang Meng scratched his head.

“What’s the use of that?”

“Of course, it’s useful!”

“Watch this!”

“…”

Wu Tian chuckled.

In front of Zhang Meng and the Fat Man, he slowly raised the paddle flatly to everyone, and then… creak… creak… the sound of cracking kept ringing out. The green glowing paddle in Wu Tian’s hand was constantly twisting and deforming under Wu Tian’s crimson ‘Tianlu’s Claw’.

Justice is clear, retribution is swift!

Earlier, it was a part of the director’s power, residing in this ping-pong paddle, that was tormenting Xia Dan.

And now… the tormented object had become the director.

Instantly!

“Ah…”

“You filthy human, how dare you lay hands on me?”

“Do you know who I am?”

“If you dare touch me again, I’ll make sure you die!”

“I’ll make you one of those brain-damaged people!”

“Ah…”

Screams continuously emanated from the ping-pong paddle, but Wu Tian’s right hand pressed harder and harder, not relaxing in the slightest due to the director’s threat.

Creak!

At a certain moment… the wood exploded, the rubber peeled open!

The green ping-pong paddle, under Wu Tian’s immense force… crackle, crackle!

It exploded!

The director’s voice, full of pain, suddenly shrieked in everyone’s ears.

“Ah!”

“How dare you do this to me, I won’t spare you!”

“You deserve to die!”

“Deserve to die ah…”

“…”

As the green paddle lost its original color, the director’s pained cries also faded into the distance… Then, they gradually disappeared into the tranquil night sky.

He shrugged.

Just as Wu Tian put away his Tianlu’s Claw and was about to continue searching for clues in the tent.

He suddenly felt some weight added to his hand.

Then he looked down at his palm!

All three of their eyes instantly narrowed!

An old cassette tape… was quietly resting in Wu Tian’s palm.
