Fast Travel: Cannon Fodder Heroine Becomes a God by Engaging in the Merit System

Chapter 42 Horror Night in the Mall

Suddenly, the surroundings were as bright as daylight, and I could see without any problems.

And the little fat guy Gu Tao saw it as he wished.

I saw that what I was stepping on was indeed the skeleton of a child. Not only that, the ground in the entire space was densely covered with skeletons of children.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!!"

The little fat man was so frightened that he screamed, and Luo Xiaofeng also took a breath of cold air.

"How could this happen? What happened? How could there be so many children's bones? It's terrible, it's terrible."

The moment the little fat man saw it clearly, he raised his right foot that was on the bone. Fortunately, his left foot was on the ground, so he maintained the independent shape of a golden rooster.

While shaking, he murmured.

Qiao Yuan ignored him and looked at the old Taoist priest.

"Taoist Priest, is this the basement where the orphanage was built?"

"Looking at the situation, it's probably true."

Qiao Yuan nodded.

"Then, whether it's the souls of those children or the unbeatable ghost, they should be here. Why didn't you see them?"

Qiao Yuan took another look at the building and situation in the basement.

This basement is neither big nor small, it is as big as half a basketball court.

There is also a platform in the middle that is higher than the ground. It is square in shape and has some complicated patterns on it. I don’t know what it is for.

However, seeing the bones of children under ten years old piled on the ground reminded Qiao Yuan of sacrifice.

But aren’t those methods used by people in ancient times? Even if modern people wanted to use them, they wouldn’t know the specific operation methods, right?

However, there are always exceptions to everything. Looking at the altar and the children's bones piled under the altar, this is really possible.

Although I don't know if he succeeded.

"He should be hiding in a corner here, we have to be careful."

The old Taoist priest said with a solemn expression.

I don't know if Qiao Yuan's words had an effect, but as soon as the old man finished speaking, the ghost who had just been fighting with Qiao Yuan appeared.

It was so gloomy that the entire ghost shadow was very blurry. I could only see a rough outline, but I couldn't tell exactly what it looked like.

I don't even know if it's a boy or a girl.

As soon as it appeared, it glanced at Qiao Yuan and attacked the little fat guy Gu Tao without saying a word.

Obviously, it also knows how to pick the softest persimmons and pinch them.

"Ah!! Qiao Yuan, help me!!!"

Gu Tao was almost scared to death, and at the same time he was a little aggrieved. Why did so many people here pick him? Forget it for Qiao Yuan, forget it for the old liar... Then he and Brother Luo were both ordinary people, could it be that they were just ordinary people?

Bullying him for being young?

Qiao Yuan planned to capture the ghost alive this time, so he ignored the little fat man's cry for help. Instead, he made a secret with his hands. Using his own thunder skills, he weaved a unique cage with purple thunder and lightning flashing on it.

He controlled the cage and flew towards the ghost, and finally covered the ghost in where it was a palm away from the little fat man.

The ghost still wanted to escape, but wherever it touched the cage with the purple lightning flashing, the cage would corrode the part of the Yin Qi that touched it.

Ghosts are originally formed by Yin energy, and if a little bit of Yin energy is corroded away, they will become weaker.

Therefore, the ghost did not dare to act rashly for the time being.

"Who are you? Why are you arresting those children?"

Seeing that the thing was trapped by her, Qiao Yuan stepped forward and asked.

The ghostly figure turned a deaf ear to Qiao Yuan's questions and wanted to escape by turning into a ray of yin energy.

And Qiao Yuan directly made a secret move to shrink the cage several times.

It was barely enough for the ghost to stay inside without even moving a little bit.

The ghost didn't believe in evil and wanted to escape. It whined and screamed as it was corroded by the cage full of thunder and lightning.

"Bah, it deserves to be killed by Qiao Yuan."

The little fat man said fiercely to the ghost with an expression of rejoicing that he had survived the disaster.

"I asked you to scare me, and I asked you to pick on the weak ones. I must have received retribution. I deserve it, hehehehe."

Seeing that the ghost shadow was trapped, the little fat man walked up to it and gestured with left hook and right hook into the air.

"You can say it now. If not, I don't mind making it smaller."

Qiao Yuan said calmly to the ghost.

"Yes, tell me honestly, what is your name and what do you do. Answer us obediently, or else I will let the thunder and lightning strike you and make your soul fly away."

The little fat man responded with a fake tone.

I don’t know which words frightened the ghost, but it actually opened its mouth and said it honestly.

"My name is An Ruochu, and I am in charge of all those children."

"Here, she's still a woman. I really can't tell. But that's right. Just like my mother, she's a tigress. She's so fierce."

The little fat man was surprised when he heard that the ghost voice spoke in a female voice.

Qiao Yuan glanced at the little fat man.

"How about you ask?"

"You come, you come."

The little fat man covered his mouth and shook his head.

"Are these skeletons on the ground all those of children? How many of them are there in total?"

"Yes, 99 pairs of boys and girls."

"99 pairs of boys and girls, what are they used for?"

"have no idea."

"What is this place for?"

"have no idea."

"Why don't you go reincarnate?"

"We can't go, we can only stay here."

Qiao Yuan was convinced that it was exactly what she had guessed.

"Why can't you go? Why can you only stay here?"

"have no idea."

"Then how did you die? What happened more than 40 years ago?"

"have no idea."

"Hey, why are you asking me something when you don't know anything? I advise you to cooperate well."

The little fat man was listening on the sidelines. Listening to this ghost, he kept saying that he didn't know or didn't know, so he couldn't help but chime in.

After finishing speaking, he smiled at Qiao Yuan again.

"Please, please, I just can't help it, haha. I promise not to speak again."

Qiao Yuan didn't say anything. She also felt that this ghost either had amnesia or was uncooperative.

After answering like this, she only answered the most basic and obvious questions. She didn't know the answers to the deeper questions at all.

It seems like she still has to suffer a little.

So Qiao Yuan asked next.

"Then you have all stayed here since the orphanage closed down. Why did you live in peace and harmony for the past few decades, but only in recent months have you frequently gone out to cause trouble?"

"I don't know. I just felt like I took a nap and when I woke up, the orphanage was no longer there. Instead, there was this shopping mall. I just wanted to go out for a walk. I didn't harm anyone."

"Then why can't you be killed? Although as a spirit body, the restraint is not that great. But you know my attack. Zhiyang Zhilie is your nemesis. But you can still keep your spirit body alive, why?"

"have no idea."

Qiao Yuan narrowed his eyes.

"Do you not want to tell, or do you really don't know? If you tell me, I can consider letting you go. After all, you haven't harmed anyone, right? Maybe I can send you to reincarnation by then."

"I really don't know."

Qiao Yuan instantly shrank the cage a little more, fully squeezing the ghost's space for movement.

Even the cage made of purple thunder and lightning was embedded into the ghost's body.

The ghost suddenly let out fierce screams. No matter how Qiao Yuan asked, she said she didn't know.

Even after this, she refused to say anything, and Qiao Yuan couldn't do anything about it. She couldn't really disperse the ghost, because it would be useless, and it might help her escape.

At this time, the old Taoist priest stood up.
