C3 The Buddha Plaque
Ever since her severe fever, Meng Xiaobai had been imprisoned in a rented house by drizzle.
However, in the next two days, Meng Xiaobai's fever and cold did not recover.
Even if she went to the hospital to see the chief physician and get an injection, Meng Xiaobai was like a stubborn boulder. Not only did the fever not get any better, but it was also getting worse.
Seeing Meng Xiaobai getting skinnier day by day, Mao Yu asked her classmates to find a more reliable hospital.
However, to Meng Xiaobai, although what Mao Yu did was very touching, it was not a very smart move.
After all, to Meng Xiaobai, she did not feel any discomfort in her body.
The drizzle was very helpless towards Meng Xiaobai's big idea, so she could only continue to search for a doctor to ask Liu.
It was also because of this that under Momoyu's coercion, Meng Xiaobai moved from the rented house back to the student dormitory in school.
On the one hand, it was so that the drizzle could take good care of Meng Xiaobai, and on the other hand, it could prevent Meng Xiaobai from feeling bored alone in the rented house while she was sick.
On this day, just as Meng Xiaobai dragged her tired body and tidied up the two-person dormitory, someone knocked on the door from the outside.
When she opened the door, she found that the person standing outside was the mysterious drizzle.
The first time the drizzle saw Meng Xiaobai, she immediately went into the dormitory.
"Close the door, close the door!"
Momoyu hugged a large cardboard box in her arms and said sneakily, "Did you lock the door?"
Meng Xiaobai was very helpless as she directly kicked the door behind her, "If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have something to say, say it quickly."
She reached out her hand and opened the cardboard box on the table in front of her. Mao Yu could not help but reach her hand in and fumbled around mysteriously for a long time.
Although she was free in their dormitory, Meng Xiaobai, who had been decadent for so long, had not only gained a lot of weight, but her fever had also not recovered.
After being delayed for so long, Meng Xiaobai's temper had inexplicably increased by quite a bit.
"What exactly is it? Why is it so mysterious?"
Meng Xiaobai looked at the annoying and mysterious expression that Mao Yu gave her as she fished out the express delivery box.
At this moment, when Mao Yu took it out of the express delivery box, there was a rectangular wooden tablet in her hand.
The wooden tablet was engraved with a simple pattern. There were tiny runes between the patterns. If one didn't look carefully, they would think that there was dust in the middle of the patterns.
"Xiaobai, this is a Buddhist amulet. Haven't you been suffering from a high fever recently? I bought it from a classmate in our department."
"What Buddhist amulet?"
Being asked by Meng Xiaobai, Mao Yu's face turned red. She immediately stuffed the Buddhist amulet in her hand into Meng Xiaobai's hands.
She said, "Wear it well for the next few days."
Meng Xiaobai looked at the Buddhist amulet that came from Thailand in her hand and felt mixed feelings.
Where did this damned girl buy such an unorthodox item?
"Xiaoyu, there are still people in our department who sell such unorthodox things?"
"I knew you wouldn't believe it, but a lot of the students who bought it said that the sleep effect had improved, and besides, you don't always have a bad fever, so I suspect..."
"So you suspect that I am haunted by a ghost?"
Meng Xiaobai threw the Buddhist amulet in her hand onto the table in front of her, then lifted her feet and went to the bed to lie down.
Her head had always been dizzy. Just speaking a few words would cause her head to become even more dizzy, which consumed a lot of energy.
"This is for your own good. Even if you don't believe me, you should at least give it a try."
The drizzle picked up the Buddhist amulet on the table and placed it under Meng Xiaobai's pillow.
"Take a good rest in the dormitory today. Tomorrow is the student assembly of our academy. The organization department needs people, so I won't be back tonight."
After saying that, Mao Yu took a cloak from her cabinet. Before she left, she said, "Remember to lock the door before you sleep tonight."
Meng Xiaobai was a little impatient and waved her hand.
Not long after the drizzle left, Meng Xiaobai tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep.
After suffering from intermittent fever for such a long time, her body's condition gradually changed.
From the initial dizziness, to the moment she entered a quiet illusion, her head would buzz, causing Meng Xiaobai to be extremely irritated.
She turned around and took out the Buddhist amulet from under her pillow. She handed it over to her head and looked at it carefully.
He found that it was no different from ordinary wood. The only difference was that there were only some simple carved patterns on it.
How simple could the patterns be? It was so simple that even Meng Xiaobai, who did not have any painting skills, could easily carve it with a knife.
The only thing that made Meng Xiaobai curious was the classmate who secretly sold Thai Buddhist amulets.
What kind of person would dare to brazenly sell such evil things in a university?
The more she thought about it, the more Meng Xiaobai felt that something was wrong. She then got up from the bed.
The matter was definitely not that simple. What made Meng Xiaobai gradually feel afraid was that person's not purely selling methods.
Why did he have to sell such a thing when he could have sold anything in university?
After taking the express delivery box from the table, Meng Xiaobai put on her coat and left the dormitory.
After going up to the sixth floor, she quickly found a dormitory according to the handwritten address on the express delivery form.
Meng Xiaobai stood outside Room 606 and inexplicably felt the Yin Qi on the sixth floor. It was clearly only September, but this place felt colder than the other floors.
Meng Xiaobai could not help but shiver from head to toe.
At this time, without waiting for Meng Xiaobai to knock on the door, the sound of footsteps came from the stairs.
The sound of footsteps was very strange. Every time his feet made a sound, it was irregular, as if one of his legs was injured.
Meng Xiaobai subconsciously pushed her to the corner of the stairs opposite the dorm to the south and hid there. Following that, the footsteps got closer and closer.
Her heartbeat gradually increased in her chest. Not long after, the door to dormitory 606 was opened from the inside.
Just as Meng Xiaobai was about to stick her head out, she heard the voices of two people.
"Have you brought the things?"
"Don't mention it. The wooden token supplier ran away with the money. What should we do? We might not be able to deliver the orders on time."
When another voice rang out, there was a hissing sound, "Don't stand outside. Come in and talk!"
With the sound of the door closing, Meng Xiaobai finally walked out from the stairs.
Due to her physical exhaustion, Meng Xiaobai could only return to the dormitory as soon as possible.
Just as Meng Xiaobai left the sixth floor, the door to dormitory 606 opened.
The black figure stood outside the door, his pair of bright eyes staring at the figure that had disappeared from the staircase. He then clenched his fists.
With a pale face, Meng Xiaobai rummaged through her coat pocket. Only then did she realize that she did not bring her key with her when she went out.
"So it's a classmate!"
A cold voice sounded from behind Meng Xiaobai. When Meng Xiaobai, who was shocked, turned her head, she accidentally bumped into a very gloomy and pale face.
She looked at the woman opposite her. Her long hair was fluttering in the wind, and there was not a hint of human on her body. She looked just like a flesh shell that had been possessed.
"Oh? And she is one of my buyers."
The woman smiled coldly, but the dark qi on her face was getting thicker and thicker. The dark fog in her hand kept changing.
Although Meng Xiaobai tried her best to cheer herself up, she did not have much strength left in her legs.
"Who are you?"
Hearing Meng Xiaobai's question, the woman stopped in her tracks, "You brought my Buddhist amulet and asked me who I was?"
Meng Xiaobai bought herself some time. Leaning against the cold marble wall, her hand quickly touched the fire extinguisher on the ground.
The woman seemed to have realized the small movements behind Meng Xiaobai's back and was immediately enraged. She raised a red Buddhist amulet in her hand and began to mutter to herself.
In an instant, the entire area was filled with black fog, and small figures slowly walked out of the black fog.
Meng Xiaobai opened her eyes wide, unable to believe her eyes.
Seeing the Ghost Child skipping in front of Meng Xiaobai, the black crow's eyes looked around at Meng Xiaobai before it opened its mouth that was as big as a fang.
When Meng Xiaobai saw this, she recovered a bit of reason from her fear and smashed the fire extinguisher in her hand at the Ghost Child's head.
With a loud sound, Meng Xiaobai used the last bit of strength in her body to roll to the side.
However, the Ghost Child naively looked at the dented fire extinguisher on the ground, and its dark eyes suddenly became angry.
Meng Xiaobai's heart was dead, but she still supported her body and stood up from the ground.
The woman lowered her head, and her face was filled with gloom. She chanted another incantation that no one could understand.
The Ghost Child suddenly screamed, and then pounced towards Meng Xiaobai with bared fangs and brandished claws.
Meng Xiaobai was unable to dodge in time, and her feet lost balance, causing her to fall to the side.
The Ghost Child got the chance and pounced on Meng Xiaobai's leg with a howl. It opened its mouth and bit down.
The heart-piercing pain instantly woke Meng Xiaobai up from her daze. Enduring the pain in her leg, she directly picked up the wooden stick beside her and smashed it at the Ghost Child.
The Ghost Child rolled to the side, but it still looked unharmed.
The completely enraged Ghost Child became even more relentless, continuously pouncing towards Meng Xiaobai.
Meng Xiaobai was injured and her body was becoming more and more drowsy. She had no resistance at all to the mischievous but powerful and dangerous Ghost Child.
As the large hand flew out, Meng Xiaobai felt her body lighten. In the blink of an eye, she had already shrunk into an ice-cold chest.
The cold sensation caused Meng Xiaobai to gradually faint. The face that appeared in front of her in a daze was as familiar as if she had seen it somewhere before.
The sudden appearance of the man shocked everyone present.
The Ghost Child that was emitting an arrogant aura of death turned cold the moment it saw the man in front of it.
A pair of large black eyes were filled with endless fear and wariness.
It turned around and ran back behind the woman in a panic.
The woman was shocked and then became furious.
"Trash, hurry up!"
The Ghost Child shook its head to show its resistance, squeaking. If one listened carefully, one could hear a clear sound of upper and lower teeth colliding.
