Chapter 8, The Fright in the Forest

There is still no response; it seems that the female ghost does not care about what happens to my second uncle.

At this moment, Lan'er trembled and said: "Whose leg is this... why is it... wearing a skirt?"

As soon as Cao Sen's voice fell, the gun in his hand was already aimed at the female ghost's face. He pulled the trigger repeatedly, and the rapidly fired 6-millimeter steel pellets formed a straight line, all of which entered the female ghost's open mouth.

Jingjing pulled Wu Fang and Lan'er, hiding behind Cao Sen and the other two.

Sen Ge, hehe, I also call you that. Sen Ge, can you tell me why they are so afraid of you? Also, what is your phone number? It's been four years and you still haven't told the girls in our class... Wu Fang rushed up and grabbed Cao Sen's arm, incessantly asking questions, voicing all the inquiries she had wanted to ask but had not dared to before.

Wu Fang is exasperated; she truly cannot tell whether these boys are genuine heroes or just foolishly bold.

Arriving in front of the dormitory building, the footsteps of the female ghost also approached, seemingly indicating that she was not as averse to the yang energy formed by the numerous boys here as Cao Sen had claimed

"Why aren't we moving?" Jingjing asked, somewhat confused.

Boys' dormitory

Cao Sen angrily said: "Damn it, it is I who am twisting your hand! Let go quickly!"

"You must have been struck by lightning to have such a mindset!" Jingjing spoke on behalf of Caosen

On the way back to school, three girls were very happy

What should we do if that ghost comes charging at us

Cao Sen returned, and Teng Fei tried to walk again. He still walked in an arc, or rather, after walking a certain distance, his straight path turned into a circular arc. If he continued like this, he would never be able to leave the forest in his lifetime

After waiting for a while, the surroundings fell silent. Ding Haitao couldn't help but curse, "Damn your second uncle!"

"Sen Ge, can your guns kill ghosts?" Wu Fang asked timidly

"12 o'clock direction, half a meter, concentrated fire!" Cao Sen shouted the command

Before Cao Sen's shout faded, three pairs of small hands simultaneously reached out towards him, regardless of where they grabbed, they would not let go upon contact. Since the three girls were sitting on the ground, their grabs naturally targeted his lower body. It was unclear which girl had a firm grip on his groin, causing Cao Sen's expression to change, and cold sweat to pour down from the pain, as he hurriedly tried to pry her hand away.

Effective, Cao Sen and the others let out a sigh. This female ghost is indeed difficult to deal with. Perhaps next time they should call all the brothers, aiming nineteen guns simultaneously at the female ghost's head to see if they can eliminate her.

Where is it

The terrifying atmosphere was significantly diminished by this commotion, and Guo Jing was laughing so hard that tears came out, barely managing to say: "Wu Fang, come over here."

The ominous wind followed the footsteps of the crowd, surrounding them. However, the dense branches and leaves of the large trees slowed the wind's speed, and the tornado formed by the ominous wind had lost its earlier power. The crowd could fully withstand it, but the mournful cries were truly terrifying, evoking involuntary associations with the ghostly and eerie atmosphere of hell.

I do not know

Guo Jing and others burst into laughter, while Wu Fang's face turned completely red with embarrassment, and she hurriedly let go and whispered an apology

Lan'er experienced a ghost encounter for the first time and was extremely anxious and frightened. Jingjing was also scared but forced herself to muster some spirit to comfort her friend: "It's okay, actually we've all seen her. She's wearing a particularly outdated white dress and a pair of faux leather red shoes, which are quite tasteless. We don't need to be afraid of her."

Upon returning to campus, Wu Fang insisted on taking a walk in the East Forest of the school, and Cao Sen and the others, being good friends, fully committed to their role as protectors of the flowers

The wind suddenly intensified, forming a small tornado that engulfed all seven individuals. Within the wind, not only were there sounds of crying, but also a mix of sand and stones, striking their bodies with unbearable pain. Three girls, being timid, were so frightened that they cried out loudly.

"You all... you are not ghosts, are you?" the girl asked boldly

Do not leave me, do not twist my hand

The four brothers grabbed the three girls on the ground, led by Cao Sen, and desperately ran towards the edge of the forest

Yes. Wu Fang crawled two steps on the ground and grabbed Guo Jing by following the sound

Three women stood under a dense shade of trees, seemingly watching her, though she did not know when they had arrived. What frightened her was that the three women slowly curled their legs but did not fall; their upper bodies stood there in mid-air. Even more terrifying was that near the heads of the three women, four snow-white teeth suddenly appeared, opening and closing, creating an exceptionally horrifying sight

Seven young people were quietly chatting and strolling through the woods. It was unclear how long they had been walking, but when Cao Sen checked his phone, it was already midnight. Was it so late? He thought about escorting the three girls back to their dormitory

Sen Ge was struck by lightning and his mind was damaged, haha. Teng Fei said with a smile

It seemed that the maze created by the female ghost had also lost its effectiveness. The seven individuals finally escaped from the woods. As they rushed out, the sound of high heels echoed from deep within the forest, trailing behind them at a distance

She wants to separate us, but we must hold on tightly to each other and never let go

Cao Sen handed Lan'er, who was beside him, to Guo Jing, adjusted his breathing, controlled the stride of his legs, and slowly walked forward, while the others waited in place

The seven individuals were suddenly thrown into chaos. Teng Fei and Ding Haitao, who were beside Lan Er, simultaneously struck towards her. Their arms collided with a loud bang, yet they hit nothing.

The doorman looked outside with suspicion; he heard a piercing shriek. What could it be? Could it be...?

The icy wind instantly enveloped Cao Sen, and his ears were filled with piercing cries, as if hundreds of women were pleading and wailing right next to him. A wave of revulsion surged within Cao Sen; the sound was too unpleasant to bear.

The face of the female ghost became blurred after being struck, but gradually restored itself. She looked at Cao Sen with resentment and said in a chilling tone: "The things you possess cannot harm me."

The Donglin at Dongshan University is a neatly arranged grove of white birch trees, covering a vast area, making it the ideal place for students to engage in romantic relationships. When seven individuals enter the grove, one cannot help but wonder how many pairs of lovebirds are immersed in their tender affections within. The combination of the trees, moonlight, the gentle breeze of early summer, the fragrance after rain, and the romantic traditions of Donglin creates an invisible yet intoxicating atmosphere

Guo Jing and others need not say anything to understand Cao Sen's intentions. At the same time, they turned on their flashlights, and four strong beams of light shot towards the outside of the building, especially towards the area where the sound of high heels had just been heard. A piercing scream, filled with reluctance, circled around outside the building before gradually fading away

Brother Sen, where are we going

The expressions on the faces of the four brothers were peculiar; they were neither fearful nor joyful, but rather an indescribable emotion. They had spent a week searching for her without success, and now she had come to them on her own accord, presenting an opportunity to compete with the female ghost. What displeased the four was that they were accompanied by three burdens.

Brothers, spread your feet and quickly run towards the dormitory building, while the sound of high heels follows at a leisurely pace behind.

"Damn it," Cao Sen cursed, making a gesture for his brothers to head towards the girls' dormitory

Wu Fang led several people out of the shade of the trees, and the moonlight revealed their identities

Cao Sen was the first to face the situation. He did not fire his weapon. Setting aside the female ghost, the ominous wind before him was merely a gust mixed with cold air. What effect would bullets have on the wind? Moreover, Cao Sen did not believe that a gust of wind could harm anyone, even if it was an ominous one. Therefore, he did not evade, watching as the ominous wind howled and charged directly towards him.

Perhaps it was the indifference in the bar that made Cao Sen and a few others feel a sense of guilt; they rarely missed the opportunity to dismiss the girls, especially Cao Sen, who surprisingly allowed the girls' playful antics.

The girls were moved by the romantic atmosphere, their mouths fell silent as they quietly followed the footsteps of the four boys. The seven young hearts were unaware of what thoughts occupied their minds, and the atmosphere gradually became somewhat subtle, slowly turning a bit awkward

The guard took the cigarette and smiled, saying: "Well, well, classmates can naturally stay, female classmates can also stay, but others cannot. Your brother Sen can stay, just don't let the higher-ups know"

After walking for a short while, several boys suddenly stopped in their tracks, casting puzzled glances around them, feeling that something was amiss

It seemed that the female ghost's chilling presence could not affect these individuals, gradually calming the tornado and replacing it with a thick, creeping fog. The fog enveloped everyone from all directions, growing denser by the moment, soon reaching a point where one could not see their own hand in front of their face. The cold and dense fog deprived everyone of their sight.

In order to prevent the four boys from slipping away, the girls had the four brothers stand in a line, inserting themselves in the middle. Each girl held onto the arms of two different boys, and when they got tired, they would pull on their arms to swing and take a break. The four boys, unlike other boys, exuded strength and maturity, which provided the three girls with a tremendous sense of security. With this sense of security, the girls naturally relaxed, and once relaxed, they became quite talkative. Even though there was a boy between them, they still chatted happily.

Ah... is that Sen Ge... why are you so tanned, haha, what are you all doing... The security guard looked at the three girls they were carrying and thought to himself, aren't they just bringing back girls from the club to continue having fun in the dorm? I can pretend not to see them kicking the door, but it would be problematic to lead girls into the dormitory building.

Guo Jing chuckled knowingly, and Jingjing playfully punched Guo Jing.

Boredom. "Cao Sen threw out a comment and continued walking forward

Those who engage in special operations share a common characteristic: they possess an excellent sense of direction, and their stride length is nearly constant. This is the result of long-term training aimed at mastering their movement distance in dark environments. Cao Sen and his companions naturally possess this skill. Starting from the moment Cao Sen decided to return to the dormitory, although they did not consciously pay attention, their long-standing habits allowed them to estimate the distance intuitively, having walked at least fifty meters.

"I didn't notice that; you are quite famous," Wu Fang said as she turned to face Cao Sen, observing him with interest.

The boy, in order to demonstrate his strength in front of his girlfriend and to conceal his earlier display of timidity, approached a few individuals aggressively to confront them.

My crotch

Ghost? What ghost... Ah! A sharp scream awakened three girls, who opened their eyes wide and looked around in panic

Cao Sen did not shake off Wu Fang, nor did he answer her question, allowing her to chatter beside him.

I do not know

"Buddy, I hope I didn't disturb your sweet dreams. I'll treat you to a drink tomorrow," said Cao Sen as he handed the security guard a box of fine cigarettes. "They are our classmates and will be staying here for the night."

Cao Sen was in so much pain that he could hardly speak, gritting his teeth as he said: "Let go quickly, you are grabbing me there!"

The dormitory building had already been locked. Cao Sen kicked the door open with a loud bang. The security guard on duty at the entrance was startled awake and rushed out, brandishing his baton in anger: "Who the hell is looking for trouble? Who dares to kick my door?"

However, Jingjing's words seemed to infuriate the female ghost. Beneath a thick white birch tree, a gust of cold wind swirled, carrying with it a mournful wail that rushed towards the crowd.

Ah? Is that Sen Ge... How did you get so dark... Are you all out for a walk? We won't disturb you, we'll be leaving now. Under the moonlight, that boy finally recognized Cao Sen and the others, and with his girlfriend in tow, he dashed away.

Cao Sen does not like this kind of emotion and wants to end the walk back to the dormitory with the girl

But they heard Wu Fang scream: "Help! A female ghost is twisting my hand!"

Jingjing was taken aback, unable to scream. Suddenly, between two pale legs beneath a white skirt, a woman's head appeared. Disheveled and filthy long hair partially obscured a pale face, and a pair of blood-red eyes stared menacingly at Jingjing. The black lips parted to reveal sharp teeth, as if about to bite Jingjing.

Suddenly, the thick fog before her eyes began to dissipate, revealing a pair of red high-heeled shoes in front of Jingjing, with a pair of pale legs beneath a white skirt

Immediately following was Lan'er’s piercing scream: "Ah—! A ghost! She is in front of me!"

Is there no ghost? Jingjing's voice trembled

Cao Sen disregarded the guard's wild guesses, forcefully pushed open the door, and entered the communication room. He took down several powerful flashlights from the wall and turned around to distribute them to a few brothers

"It is the female ghost from the teaching building, hiding nearby," Cao Sen replied

Tengfei patted the security guard on the shoulder, and the guard did not dare to say much, feeling frustrated as he retreated back to his post.

The situation before me perfectly aligns with a legend—ghost wall!

Cao Sen can confirm that he is walking in a straight line, but in the eyes of Guo Jing and others, his walking path appears to be a strange arc. He originally walked towards the true east, but when Cao Sen stopped, he ended up in a northwest direction.

Ghost—ah! The girl screamed and clung tightly to her boyfriend.

The first time Cao Sen heard the female ghost speak, a chill swept through his heart, as this entity appeared truly terrifying. However, Cao Sen did not panic. His experiences in the teaching building and the blurred face of the female ghost he had just seen made him realize one thing: while steel balls could not kill the female ghost, a concentrated barrage of steel balls could temporarily drive her away.

Ha ha ... Seeing the two people in such a predicament, Wu Fang couldn't help but burst into laughter, dangling her legs in mid-air, rubbing her belly and repeatedly exclaiming, "I'm dying of laughter, I'm dying of laughter"

A gust of cold wind brushed against them, and from one side of the forest came the faint sound of footsteps. Although the sound was subtle, Cao Sen and the others recognized it as the sound of high heels, and it felt very familiar, as the impression from that night in the teaching building was too profound.

Cao Sen shouted, "Follow me!"

Guo Jing felt Wu Fang grasping him, patted her shoulder, and whispered: "MM, well done."

Her boyfriend was also frightened by the bizarre scene before him, his hair standing on end, his whole body trembling in a bundle, lacking even the courage to scream

I, Cao Sen

The girls were already so tired that they could hardly keep their eyes open, yet they forced themselves to persist, casually finding a boy to lean on, looking adorably dazed.

Cao Sen couldn't help but smile upon hearing this; the perspective of the girl on the issue was truly unique

Jingjing screamed loudly, watching as the female ghost was about to bite her. Suddenly, Cao Sen's head stretched over to block the way, "Damn, you are not just ugly!"

The four brothers understood that tonight they would hit the jackpot again—encountering a ghost. They just didn't know what kind of ghost would appear next. Could it be the female ghost from the teaching building?

Jingjing walked beside Caosen, noticing his subtle movements that indicated impatience. She enjoyed this atmosphere and did not want to return to the dormitory too early. Upon seeing the scene not far away, Jingjing had an idea and whispered something to her companions. Wu Fang was so excited that she almost jumped up, while Lan'er looked somewhat hesitant.

Ding Haitao looked at Cao Sen and Wu Fang in surprise, "What the hell? Why is Sen Ge in such a surprisingly good mood tonight?"

The four brothers exchanged glances, confirming the questions in each other's hearts, and they realized that something was wrong in the forest

"You three fill in the gaps, just like coming out of a bar." Tengfei took over the temporarily speechless Cao Sen's command, positioning the girls between the four boys, with each girl holding onto one leg of two boys.

Jingjing tightly clutched the pant legs of Caosen and Guo Jing, her terrified eyes helplessly scanning the surroundings; apart from the thick fog, she could see nothing else

However, the scenery before them still remains within a range of twenty meters. What is the reason for this?

Four simulation guns gathered simultaneously before Cao Sen, the sound of the sliding mechanism and the whoosh of steel balls being fired intertwined with everything. A multitude of steel balls instantly penetrated the head of the female ghost, causing ripples to appear on her face like waves. As the steel balls continued to be shot, the ripples grew larger, ultimately shattering the form of the female ghost.

Cao Sen shook his head in resignation, thinking to himself that tonight he must have lost his mind for actually indulging these girls in their antics, surely a side effect of being struck by lightning during the day

This female ghost is lingering with us; where is the yang energy strongest in the dead of night

Shh, there is a ghost

Cao Sen's courage is extraordinary; even under such terrifying sounds, he remains calm, saying, "Female ghost, try a different tactic; this trick is useless against me!"

"Go! Keep up with me, don't scatter!" Cao Sen casually picked up a girl, breaking through the encirclement of the ominous wind, and dragged her to a tree, with Guo Jing and the others closely following. Upon reaching the tree, the boys dropped the three girls, who were already weak in the legs, and once again surrounded them.

Yes, let's go to the boys' dormitory

Without anyone's command, four men surrounded the girls and drew their handguns, producing a nearly synchronized sound of bullets being chambered, and then the four dark muzzles pointed in four different directions

A couple is entwined on a bench under a tree, with the girl lying in the boy's arms, playfully acting coy. As she inadvertently looks up, she sees a scene that terrifies her.

"Bored!" exclaimed the frightened girl angrily
