The Exorcist

Chapter 28 The last scene

I suddenly made a sound, which startled everyone present and looked at me at the same time, but not including the hero and heroine on the stage! They also clasped hands and stared at each other, which is wrong in both plot and reality!

She is either possessed or changed, which means she is not her anymore!

I was so horrified that I rushed onto the stage in two or three steps, pushed aside the other actors and classmates who came to stop me, and went straight to Nana.

It seemed that I had disturbed the couple in the center of the stage. They turned to look at me at the same time. Only then did I notice that they were wearing white-painted wooden masks. Except for the two eye holes, they were just a flat plate with some protrusions.

This will make people pay more attention to the eyes in the eye holes, and the moment I noticed it, I knew that the hero was not the same as before, and the heroine was no longer my Nana!

I ran over quickly, but the two people were even faster. When I was about to run to the center of the stage, they ran arm in arm to the side of the stage, which led to the backstage.

"Bao Datong!" I shouted while chasing him, pulling up my collar. Inside my collar was a charm given by Bao Datong. He said that this kind of talisman works like a walkie-talkie. As long as I call his name, the talisman on his collar will move, and he will know that something is wrong with me! Now as long as he receives my message, we can attack those two people from both sides!

But when I ran in after them, I found that this was not a backstage, but a maze-like black passage with twists and turns! There was a wall a few meters ahead, but the two figures turned left at the wall and disappeared!

I hesitated for a moment, not sure whether I should catch up. This is obviously an illusion. I don’t know where I will lead if I walk down. Maybe I will walk directly into the lake and drown. Bao Datong said that Zhao Jiang died because of water, so he would also use water to increase his strength. As long as I'm in the water and my yang energy reaches the sky, he can kill me!

But can I let Nana be taken away? When the two people ran backstage just now, the lights on the stage cast long shadows on them. This proved that they were human beings. No matter what kind of control or bewitchment they were under, at least their bodies were human. I can't let Nana A little hurt, both body and soul.

Thinking of this, I didn't hesitate and chased in the direction where Nana disappeared! When I looked at the wall facing me, I saw that there was a passage to the left and to the right. The two passages were exactly the same, as if they were refracted by a large mirror. Nana and the others were going to the left, but I felt that this passage was connected. If I went to the right, I would hit them head-on.

So I ran to the right, but after running for a long time, I still didn't see anyone, which made me think that my judgment was wrong. When I was anxious, there was a sudden knocking sound of "dong dong dong" on the wall.

In the dark and silent corridor, when I could only hear my own footsteps, a deafening knocking sound suddenly came from the wall. The shock was indescribable. Even though I have always been bold, I couldn't help but feel my heart beat faster at this moment. !

I looked to both sides and suddenly realized why this corridor looked so much like the layout of our dormitory building? Except for being a little darker and looking like it's stretching into the depths of hell, everything else looks like it. There are rooms on both sides with numbers 201, 202, and 203 written on them.

Dong dong dong——

The tapping became louder and louder, gradually disrupting my sense of direction and making my tracking even more confusing. And I discovered that although I kept running forward without turning a corner or going up a flight of stairs, I actually reached the fifth floor!

I slowed down, subconsciously searched left and right, and suddenly found Room 505 right in front of me! That's Nana's bedroom!

Is she in there? Or is this just a trap?

I hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted my teeth and held the doorknob. No matter what it is, as long as there is a chance, I will save Nana!

Squeak——

The wooden door groaned sharply like an iron door that had been closed for a thousand years, and then a damp smell hit my face. The room was very dark, but a beam of extremely strong light came from the window, like a stage light, which made me unable to see anything clearly for a moment.

I took a step to the side and put my palms on my forehead to block the light. I saw dust floating under the light beam, making it feel like no one had been in this room for a long time. There was a person standing by the window across the room. I couldn't see her face clearly, it was just a black shadow in the shape of a woman.

"Nana?" I tried calling to the black shadow.

The shadow didn't speak. I squatted down to avoid the beam of light, but I immediately realized that this was impossible. I seemed to be the protagonist on the stage, and the light revolved around me. Wherever I went, the beam of light followed me!

"Nana!" I called again, and this time, she replied with a "hmm". Although it was just a simple word, the familiar voice made me immediately understand who she was.

Now that I was sure, I didn't hesitate and threw the stone I had been holding at the strongest point of the light. I heard the sound of glass breaking, and the room instantly darkened, and I could clearly see the person standing in front of me. The dark shadow is Nana. It's just that although she was standing there alone, her hands were held by two hands stretched out horizontally, and her mouth was covered by one hand!

"Let her go!" I yelled and said to Xiaoling who was holding Nana and the girl who jumped off the building. One of them was lying behind Nana, the other was kneeling on the ground, and happened to surround Nana tightly.

"No - let go!" the two female ghosts said in unison.

I had no choice but to take out the small peach wood stick and rush forward, but after only taking two steps, my feet trembled and I almost fell, and the sound of 'dong dong dong' sounded again. This time it was passed at my feet!

I ignored it, stood firm and continued to walk towards Nana, but my feet shook violently. Somehow I suddenly felt that the sound was full of anxiety, as if it wanted me to stop, or reminded me of something.

I had an idea and took the opportunity to fall to the ground and crawled on the ground twice. When I looked up again, I suddenly found that although Nana was standing well, her feet had not touched the ground!

It is indeed a trap!

Without saying a word, I jumped up and ran to the door quickly, slamming the door hard. I heard Nana's voice crying in the room, "Wanli! Don't leave me! Wanli!"

I gritted my teeth and resisted the desire to open the door again, and turned around to walk to the other side of the corridor. But when I turned around, I realized that this was no longer a corridor, but another room, a room surrounded by doors. I knew I had to choose one and couldn't stand still like this, so I picked a random door and opened it.

Behind the door is the wall!

I thought about anything behind it, a corridor, another room, a cliff, a ghost, Nana, or even Zhao Jiang himself, but I never thought it was a wall, so I calmed down and opened another door clockwise. Door, then another, and another, and finally the door I came in from, but behind the door there were walls. Without exception, I seemed to be built in the center of a wall. It felt like I was buried alive. !

I began to panic, which was a sign of claustrophobia. I tried desperately to calm down, but it was difficult to do so when I thought about Nana's life and death, and I was trapped in an unknown place!

At this time, the knocking sound started again, and from the moment it started, I had never liked this sound so much. Just now I was in a hurry to find Nana and lost my mind. Now I thought, this is probably Bao Datong who is contacting me. I have to find a way to communicate with him!

After listening carefully, I ran to the echo of the sound and banged the wooden door hard. But the strange thing was that although I used a lot of force, it was like hitting cotton and there was no sound at all. I hurriedly switched to tapping with a peach wood stick, but the knock on the door was as loud as a drum!

Hearing my response, the tapping sound on that side became louder with excitement, and guided me to move to one side, then stopped at a wall and tapped on it three times. I thought maybe he was telling me to rush out from here, but I was facing a cement cover that looked extremely strong. How could I dare to just run into it? !

"Wanli, don't leave me!" Just as I was hesitating, Nana's cry came over again, and she was groping behind the door. I knew that Zhao Jiang was using hallucinations to seduce me again, but even if I knew it was an hallucination, facing Nana’s face, I didn’t know if I could still remain calm. Maybe I would pounce on me desperately, and then we would all be together It’s over!

I don't want that hallucination to affect me anymore, so I have to get out of here as soon as possible! Thinking like this, I gritted my teeth, closed my eyes and slammed into the direction pointed by the knocking sound.

The pain of the collision came as expected, but it was not the pain of hitting the wall, but the pain of two people hitting each other. At the same time, someone screamed in pain, and then the person and I fell to the ground at the same time, only this time we fell to the ground. On something soft, it doesn't hurt too much.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that I was lying on the grass with Bao Datong lying next to me!

"Save Nana!" I shouted before I could get up.

"I have to save you first, I need help!" Bao Datong was also very anxious, "You almost jumped to your death from the second floor window sill just now!"

I was stunned, and then I understood what it meant. This small auditorium has a second floor like a small movie theater, but except for report meetings and the like, people rarely go to the second floor. I don’t know what kind of barrier technique Zhao Jiang used. Although I didn’t think I had walked through the stairs, it actually made me run from the stairs behind the backstage to the second floor, and then used Nana as a bait. If I rushed to save her, He would lose his footing and fall from the second floor!

Bao Datong must have seen or realized something, and he couldn't enter the barrier, so he used knocking sounds to guide me. But why did I end up on the grass on campus again? If I read correctly, it is at least twenty minutes away from the small auditorium!

"Your sense of time and distance in the barrier is not normal. In fact, you have been walking for a long time." Bao Datong was so beaten that he got up after a long time. "But you only saw the illusion created by Zhao Jiang. can not see me!"

"Where did Nana go?"

"I ran out with the male protagonist. I was in a hurry to save you and didn't follow you, but I believe I can find him. Let's go quickly!" Bao Datong pulled me up and walked quickly, saying, "All the classmates are watching. Until you chase Nana and the male protagonist like crazy, then they two run out, and then you chase them out!"

It turns out that other students were not involved, which is good! Zhao Jiang didn't want to make a big fuss. If he really alarmed too many people, he wouldn't be able to achieve his despicable and insidious purpose.

"Can't you break that barrier?" I complained a little bit about Bao Datong, because he couldn't break Zhao Jiang's barrier. He just led me out by myself, which wasted a lot of time. During this period, Zhao Jiang might do more things that are not good for us. thing!

"I told you that his abilities will increase when he comes into contact with water!"

"Where did it come from-" Before I could finish my words, there was a muffled thunder above my head, and I realized that it had started raining at some point, so I felt the grass was wet. And because I was so worried about Nana, I didn't even notice that my whole body was already soaked!

"God really doesn't give me face, I just do whatever I'm afraid of!" Bao Datong muttered.

I didn't say anything and started trotting behind Bao Datong.

Indeed, the situation we are facing is more dangerous. We originally planned to just defend in the past two days. As long as we do not give Zhao Jiang a chance to borrow water to increase his strength, we can wait until A Zhan comes back, and then the three of us will work together to get rid of this evil spirit. But I didn't expect it to rain. The weather forecast clearly said that these two days would be cloudy and overcast, but it wouldn't rain!

Bao Datong stopped and I almost bumped into him again because I followed him too closely. I saw him standing in the drizzle and sniffing hard, "The rain makes it difficult for ghosts to track, but I'm sure he lured Nana and that boy to the woods!"

"Then let's go quickly!" I said urgently.

"Don't be busy, do you want to fall into his trap again?" Bao Datong said, "He took all the skills from Duan Jin's maid. If there was no rain, I could still compete. Now that his strength has increased, we We have to find a way! Don’t worry, he won’t kill Nana for the time being.”

I knew what Bao Datong said was right, so I forced myself to calm down.

We have discussed before whether Zhao Jiang will hurt Nana. I have always been curious. Since Zhao Jiang has such a deep obsession with Nana, even if he can't hurt me, he can at least kill Nana directly. Why bother?

In Bao Datong's view, it's not that Zhao Jiang doesn't want to do that, he can't do it. If Nana was killed by him, it was a murderous person. She had no one to take revenge on. Even if she was reluctant to leave someone, it was definitely not Zhao Jiang. So there was no reason for her soul to linger, and it would probably enter soon. Reincarnation, and with Zhao Jiang's current magic power, although he can trap other souls for a period of time, just like Xiaoling and the girl who jumped from the building, they cannot be forced to stay for a long time. He would also lose Nana by doing this, so he would not let her die, but just pester her, and then think of other ways, or find ways to strengthen his own skills!

"Let's go over there!" Bao Datong suddenly said, pointing towards the library.

I understand what he means. He wants to be cautious and not let Zhao Jiang hear our conversation. The house was not exposed to the rain, and if he created a barrier for secret conversations, Zhao Jiang would not be able to break through.

"What can you do?" I asked after making sure the area was safe.

"You come to light, I come to hide." Bao Datong said, "I am invisible, and then you carry me in. I create an illusion outside the woods, as if I have been wandering outside, but in fact I entered the woods with you. Inside. If he is distracted and wary of me on the outside, we will have a chance in the woods. If he is not wary, he will think that we are scattered, and the guard will not be so tight, and we will still have a chance."

"But why should I carry you?" It's not that I'm uncooperative, I'm just confused.

"To be honest, I haven't learned all the invisibility methods yet." Bao Datong was a little embarrassed, "There will still be turbidity when walking, and the shadow cannot be hidden. Moreover, if I walk by myself, I am easily distracted, and maybe suddenly - ―”

"No problem, I'll carry you!" Time was tight, and I didn't want to blame him for not being good at his studies. "Then what?"

"If we make sure everyone is okay, we will set fire to the grove!"
