C10

Nie Yuxi woke up from her nightmare. Her screams woke everyone up from their sleep. The flashlight on all three phones lit up the room for a moment.

When Nie Yuan Xi said that the voice was the standard baritone, my heart tightened. The voice she heard shouldn't have been someone else's. I was sure that it was the dead Li Yu Chi. Could it be that Li Yu had changed to someone else?

Wang Mo joked and asked Nie Yuan Xi if she went to see what that person looked like. The moment she spoke, she was stopped by Li Shi Shi.

Wang Mo looked at Li Shi Shi with a wronged expression and whispered, "If it wasn't for Sichi who woke me up, I would have gone over to see what that person looked like. With such a nice voice, he must be very handsome."

Her words gave the three of us goosebumps. She had the same nightmare.

At this moment, Li Shi Shi couldn't help but ask, "What? Did you hear him cry for help as well?"

Wang Mo nodded his head seriously. At this moment, the three of them had their gazes locked onto each other, causing sparks to fly out.

Li Shi Shi couldn't take it anymore and asked in a low voice, "Is this for real, or are you in a dream?"

"What? You heard it too?" the three of us asked Li Shi Shi in unison, our eyes wide.

"Did you hear that too?" Li Shi Shi turned her gaze to me.

I silently shook my head. I dare to say that I was the only one who hadn't fallen asleep.

"You, you really didn't hear it?" Wang Mo looked at me strangely, as if he were looking at a monster.

"Second Bro's sleeping is too dead. What can she hear? Who's playing a prank on us? Hurry up and sleep. Tomorrow is the military training. Let's see who will embarrass our dorm room when the time comes." Li Shi Shi said in a threatening tone and lay back down.

Although her voice was calm, I could see how pale her face was. She was lying back down powerlessly.

"Why don't we go out and take a look? Maybe something really happened." But Wang Mo wasn't willing to give up and made a suggestion that frightened all three of us.

She didn't expect this little brat to be so bold, she wasn't afraid of ghosts, but thinking about how there were people who wanted to chat with ghosts today, she wasn't too surprised. But, where was that Hong Lingtong who wanted to chat with ghosts?

I held the quilt and looked at Wang Mo. I had a kind of indescribable admiration for her. I just felt that she was very loving and bold.

"What are you wearing on your hand? It's so dark and ugly." Seeing me looking at her, Wang Mo became naughty with me.

"It's a buddhist bead. Someone gave it to me. I don't like it even if I have to wear it." I looked at the beads on my wrist, and a flash of surprise passed through my mind.

Hearing that I was wearing a string of buddhist beads, the two men curiously stuck their heads out as well. I held up the arm I was wearing and, although I didn't mean to show it, I had to show it to these curious people.

Nie Yuxi also said that this bracelet wasn't pretty, so it didn't look like something a girl should wear. She also said that if I liked it, she would make me a bracelet of pretty items tomorrow.

Didn't she say she was a poor girl, how could there be such luxury? I looked at her curiously for a moment, and then she drew back her head, as if she had done something shameful.

"Can you hang these buddhist beads in the window?" Li Shi Shi's eyes lit up as she said this to me.

Hanging it on the window, what was she thinking, was she going to use my buddhist beads to guard the house?

It doesn't matter. I'm in this house anyway, and it would be great if I could manage it.

Without another word, I got up and ran to the window. I lifted the curtain and was about to hang the pearl when I saw a woman covered in blood, her long, bright red nails scratching at the glass, her blood-stained hair falling across her face, baring her fangs.

I screamed in fright and threw the pearl in my hand, which hit the glass, and there was a clatter as it fell down the glass onto the windowsill, and the woman, covered in blood, disappeared into the night.

"What's wrong, Ke Er?" When the three of them heard me, they all asked me what was wrong.

Wang Mo and I were both sleeping on the lower bunk, so she immediately ran over and crawled behind me, staring at the window with her big eyes, seeing only the dreary black night. She couldn't help but look at me strangely, pick up the Buddhist beads, and hang them on the aluminum window frame.

"Are your eyes playing tricks on you?" Wang Mo asked me gently.

"Mo Mo, are you wearing glasses?" Li Shi Shi's weak voice made me feel even more uneasy.

"No, why?" Mo Mo Mo was at a loss.

"Hang this too." Li Shi Shi took out a three-inch peach wood sword from under her pillow.

Looking at the peach wood sword, I couldn't help but to look at her in surprise. This sword was a little smaller than the one in Hong Yu.

"What is this?" Mo Mo looked at Li Shi Shi with a strange look and took the peach wood sword.

"Why are you asking so many questions? If I tell you to hang up, then hang up." Li Shi Shi said arrogantly.

Mo Mo "En", hesitantly hung the peach wood sword on the window frame of the aluminum alloy window, but his eyes were still looking at Li Shi Shi from time to time, his face full of suspicion.

At that moment, my phone rang. When I picked it up and saw the number of Master Hong Yu on it, I couldn't help but wonder how he knew my number. I didn't tell him.

The one who answered the phone wasn't Master Hong Yu, but Li Xiaochen. He went straight to the point and asked me, "Did you touch that school bag of yours?"

I was stunned. How did he know? I was sitting alone in the car. Even if I was found out, I was still someone from Master Hong Yu. I shouldn't have been him.

Then I heard a strange growl coming from his side. It sounded like the sound of an angry animal, and I felt a little nervous.

It couldn't be the result of the bag I'd seen, I thought.

"Is it a cousin? What's wrong? What school bag? When did you get to know a master? What does your master do?" Li Shi Shi once again climbed onto the top bunk, stretching out her long hair and blinking as she asked me.

"How did he get my number? I didn't give it to him." I asked Li Shi Shi.

"I told him." On the other hand, Li Shi Shi was quite calm and had a heroic expression on her face.

Wang Mo and Nie Yuxi were stunned by his words. They asked me in unison, "What's going on?"

What's the situation? Of course it's Li Shi Shi. She was so jealous, but what does it have to do with me? Nothing happened between me and her fat cousin.

Just as I was about to go over my theory with them, I heard another voice from the other end of the phone, this time from Master Hiroshi.

"Ke Er, I asked Xiaochen to call you. Your lifespan is too heavy, and you're already making my things difficult to use. But it doesn't matter, as Master has plenty of ways to get you to sleep."

Master Hong Yu's voice was urgent. At the same time, I heard some strange sounds that sounded like the shrieks of a woman and the roars of a wild beast. It made me feel cold all over.

For some reason, this made me connect with the ghost lady who was covered in blood at the window just now. My heart couldn't help but jump into my throat.

"Um … Master, did you just run into someone covered in blood …" My teeth chattered as I asked Master Hong.

But unexpectedly, before I could finish my words, I heard a blood-curdling scream, followed by the sound of a phone being hung up.

I was sure that my roommates had heard the scream, too. I saw them looking at me with frightened eyes, and soon, Wang Mo jumped onto her bed, hiding behind the covers and hugging her shoulders tightly.

"Shishi, did you know this a long time ago? That's why you asked Ke Er to hang the Buddha beads at the window, and you even hung up your own peach wood sword?" "Neiyuan Xi is also tightly wrapped in his blanket, but his face is extremely calm …"

"No, don't blame Shishi!" I hastily explained to Li Shi Shi. Even though I also thought that in my heart, I didn't know why, but I still wanted to help her.

"Don't speak up for her. I know you like her cousin." Nie Yuxi spoke harshly, and the sound left me with nothing to answer.

"That's right, I had already expected something strange to happen, but I didn't know it would actually happen." Li Shi Shi was not scared by Nie Yuan Xi's arrogance. Instead, she calmly replied, as if it was just an ordinary event.

This surprised us all. How could she do this? She told me to go to the window even though she knew I might see something unclean. Isn't that a trap?

Nie Yuxi's eyes widened, and her pointed chin tilted upwards in an aggressive posture.

"You clearly knew that such a thing would happen, yet you intentionally let Ke Er go to the window. What sort of peace are you in?" Nie Yuan Xi had already put down the blanket in his hands, looking like he was about to have a big fight with Li Shi Shi.

"Hey, don't scold me like that. I'm not a fortune-teller, how would I know that that thing would appear at the window. I just know that something strange could happen tonight." Li Shi Shi also stood up straight, as if she was going to fight.

Wang Mo was curled up in his quilt, timidly watching the two of them fight each other. He looked at me again with a deathly pale face, and his small lips trembled as he advised them to stop arguing.

"Let's not talk about that for now. Let's just think about whether or not those, those and those who are covered in blood will come again. If they do, what should we do?" Wang Mo's voice was not loud, but it made the two girls stop quarreling.

That's right, whether that pitch-black buddhist hand bracelet and that peach wood sword can block that ghost was the most urgent matter.
