Li Xuan was immersed in memories when Zhuge's soft voice came to his ears.
"I'm thinking about how to find Huan Ren." Li Xuan said.
Zhuge Qingrou was overjoyed: "Master, do you have any idea?"
Li Xuan nodded: "I have an idea, but I need a brave person to act as a bait to lure the phantom man out."
"Ugh..." Ye Xiaofei, Hu Zhilin, Lin Miao, who were walking side by side with Zhuge Qingrou just now, all took a step back. The frightened expressions on their faces clearly told Li Xuan: Don't choose me!
Only Zhuge Qingrou bravely said: "I'm coming!"
Li Xuan shook his head and said: "You can't do it...it's you..." He pointed at someone.
The man was stunned and pointed at himself: "Me? Why me?"
"Because I want to verify something!" Li Xuan said lightly.
…
In the dead of night, the room where Shani died had been tidied up, but the altar remained untouched. Instead, the burned candles were replaced with new ones and lit again.
In the room, the candlelight was dim and dim. There was obviously no wind, so I didn't know why the candlelight was swaying.
Anthony sat alone in front of the altar, staring blankly at Cindy's photo.
Cindy in the photo is a lively and cute girl of seven or eight years old, with a happy smile on her face.
Anthony was a little helpless. He couldn't figure out why Li Xuan wanted him to be the bait?
Shouldn't all baits be fragrant? A beautiful girl like Zhuge Qingrou is simply the best candidate for bait. Why choose me?
Li Xuan couldn't refuse Li Xuan's request. Although Antony was reluctant, he could only act as a bait. He was a little scared at first, but he gradually got used to it. Looking at Cindy in the photo, he probably understood Shani's mood a little bit.
"If I had such a lovely daughter and something happened to her, I would definitely think of every way to revive her." Anthony murmured in a low voice.
Suddenly, there was a gentle breeze blowing behind my neck.
Anthony quickly looked back, but there was nothing.
"It must be an illusion... I am a scientist, I believe in science, and science is the principle by which the world operates!" Anthony could only comfort himself in this way, but in this environment, he really couldn't help but think wildly.
"Go wash your face and cheer up." Anthony stood up and walked into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and splashed cold water on his face.
Feeling refreshed by the coolness, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked up in the mirror.
At this glance, he was shocked as if his whole body had been stabbed, unable to move.
Behind Anthony in the mirror, there is an extra face!
It’s a phantom! It’s Cindy!
She obviously looked like a cute little girl, but her expression and eyes were cold and lifeless, and her face was floating in mid-air without any expression.
Anthony felt that all the blood in his body was rushing to the top of his head, his hairs stood on end, he had goosebumps all over his body, and he almost screamed.
But he still held back. He remembered Li Xuan's reminder not to disturb the fantasy person, otherwise he would never be able to catch him again.
Anthony tried his best to remind himself that the phantom was just an illusion, pretending not to see its existence, picking up a towel and slowly wiping his face, secretly watching its movement.
Suddenly, Anthony saw the phantom man in the mirror slowly changing his appearance. The originally round face was suddenly elongated, the cheeks were deeply sunken, and the two rows of pearl-like teeth elongated one by one, becoming like a wild beast.
Like fangs protruding from his mouth, his face turned dark and purple.
Its hands and feet are also changing, looking like a hanged ghost or a clown on stilts. In its originally dull eyes, there is a strange, lustful gleam.
What does it want to do? Anthony couldn't help but tremble.
After walking out of the bathroom, Anthony returned to the altar, and the Phantom Man followed him closely.
Now Anthony knew why the candlelight flickered. It was because the phantom was shaking its limbs. Those completely disproportionate limbs were shaking like a film, creating a slight wind.
On the wall, a strange shadow appeared at some point.
This guy is indeed materialized, otherwise how could he have a shadow?
The shape of the shadow became more and more weird, and Anthony could see without looking back that it had turned into a completely non-human monster.
It stuck behind him, like a fierce ghost. Anthony didn't know how it would attack, and his whole body was soaked with sweat.
"Young Master Xuan, you are so compassionate, hurry up and take action!" Anthony was extremely nervous.
Suddenly, Anthony felt a light behind his back, and the phantom man disappeared.
The next second, a disgusting smell of sulfur hit his head, and a burning sensation suddenly filled his nose, even spreading to his lungs, making it almost impossible to breathe.
My chest felt like a huge stone was being pressed against it, weighing several thousand kilograms!
Anthony raised his head suddenly and saw the phantom man climbing on the ceiling at some point, hanging upside down like a giant spider, his limbs clinging to the ceiling, and his one-meter-long neck seemed to be pulled.
The broken rubber band and the long-tusked head sticking out were less than twenty centimeters away from the top of his head!
Anthony finally knew how Shani died. Even he was so frightened by such a horrific scene that his blood almost froze and his heart almost stopped beating. What about a poor mother who was looking forward to her daughter's resurrection day and night?
Anthony wanted to scream, but he just opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
He could only watch helplessly as the Phantom's neck twisted, his head raised, his twisted lips moving like two earthworms, and there seemed to be an abyss inside his open mouth.
Suddenly, the fantasy man stretched out two long arms to grab Anthony's neck.
It was as if Anthony's whole body was paralyzed by electric current, and he felt nauseated all over his body, but he could not move at all.
"Help me!" Anthony was very scared and felt like he would pee at any moment.
Just as the illusionist's hand was about to grab Anthony, a red light lit up in the room.
With a "swish" sound, Huanren's two arms were cut off, and he fell to the carpet in the room, immediately disappearing into nothing.
A figure flashed out, it was Li Xuan.
"Young Master Xuan, you are finally here." As soon as Li Xuan appeared, the numbness all over Anthony's body disappeared immediately.
"Are you okay?" Li Xuan asked calmly.
"It's okay...it's just a little disgusting." Anthony retched.
Li Xuan nodded, stared at the phantom on the ceiling, and frowned: "Who ordered you to kill Anthony?"
Anthony was stunned.
kill me?
Why does this matter still have anything to do with me?
Huanren was silent for a few seconds, then opened his mouth and a hoarse voice sounded.
"Chinese people, mind your own business!"
Saying that, Huan Ren suddenly jumped towards Anthony!
