A Crowd Of Evil Spirit Lines Up To Confess To Me Chapter 23

Gu Wuji was slightly bewildered, why was it that after he left for a while, Zheng-ge and them were looking at him with a very enthusiastic gaze, as if seeing a lost long friend.

“You've finally returned.” Auston looked towards Gu Wuji, while clearly having some lingering fears towards the incident just a while ago, “I will no longer allow you to leaving my side again next time, these guys were simply very unreliable, letting them follow me is very c.u.mbersome.”

Auston looked toward Zheng-ge and the others while still having a very annoyed expression, “When we get off this s.h.i.+p, you and the others will be fired!”

Zheng-ge and the others were originally players, they actually did not have a bit of guilt for not being able to fulfill their bodyguard duties just a moment ago. After all, not everyone had that character like Gu Wuji.

So much that Zheng-ge still wanted to rejoice, had their performance been very excellent, wouldn't it be unavoidable to be designated by this Auston-shaoye and follow him? That and not knowing how much trouble was going to happen again.

“That certainly wouldn't be a problem at all, I will naturally protect you.” Gu Wuji nodded his head, even though being a bodyguard was a set-up role given to him by the system, but he has always been a person with a very professional ethic.

Looking towards the banquet's scene again, Auston had a displeased appearance, and with a snort said: “After this kind of incident happened, I no longer want to continue and stay here.”

Without a doubt, the other people also had this kind of thoughts, but the clues are still……they immediately looked towards Gu Wuji and Jiang Ling, Gu Wuji nodded his head towards them, expressing that he had already obtained a clue.

Zheng-ge and the others immediately expressed their absolute approval towards the words of Auston, “I think Auston-shaoye's words are very good, it's better for us to leave soon.”

“That's right, the quality of this banquet cannot be good enough for Auston-shaoye's level at all.”

Their original purpose for coming here was to find clues, but looking at it now, Gu Wuji had already learned some clues from the captain, in that case, it was no longer necessary for them to continue and stay inside this haunted hall.

But at the moment as everyone was thinking in leaving, the s.h.i.+p suddenly swayed violently, the entrances had also suddenly shut one after the other.

“Wh-what's going on?”

They looked outside through the immense gla.s.s window wall, then saw that the sea surface which had still been calm before were suddenly filled with great waves, these monstrous waves were constantly beating the s.h.i.+p's deck, making the entire s.h.i.+p sway more.

Fortunately, these doors and gla.s.ses here were still strong enough, but if they had gone out at this time, even if they weren't killed by the ghosts, they could also be swept away by the ocean's waves in an instant!

Everyone took a breath of cold air, footstep's sounds were suddenly heard, turning around to look, that there was actually a number of gathered people with distorted figures approaching.

There were several women with seductive appearances, wearing formal attires that were exquisitely beautiful, only their bodies were like being generally crushed by something heavy or identical to that, some body parts were unnaturally deformed, the previously very beautiful facial features at this moment were even smeared with blood, the corner of the mouth would split up to the base of the ear when smiling.

It can be seen from the att.i.tudes of the surrounding pa.s.sersby, that they must have been admired ladies from influential families or such when they were still alive, but no matter who they were at that time, in their view they were nothing more than just ghosts now, ah!

“Auston-shaoye, there will still be a dance later, you mustn't leave this soon, ah.” the voice of a female ghost sounded, that sounded both hoa.r.s.e and harsh, letting the people hearing this experience a ringing in their ears.

“Yes, that's right, no matter what, you must certainly dance with one of us today, I believe Auston-shaoye will not refuse in giving us a bit of face.” Another female ghost laughed.

With such an extensive presentation if Auston would still refuse to agree, there will be a tendency for them to come forward……of course, if they had been ordinary girls then there naturally wouldn't be anything wrong with it, but the problem was that these several women with eerie facial features were clearly ghosts, ah!

Everyone took a gulp of cold breath, feeling that the life of this Auston-shaoye would soon be finished, even if he didn't not seek death by recklessness all kinds of trouble would come knocking on his door, just coming to this banquet today, two life and death crises had already been encountered, which were really even more dangerous compared to them the players.

“Really annoying……” Auston took on a somewhat fed up expression, he undoubtedly also didn't have much patience towards these female ghosts, but one of them is the daughter of his family's partner, it also wouldn't be very good to offend the other party here.

Even though Auston is a hedonistic son of rich parents, but he also had propriety, and was well aware that his behavior outside cannot have any impact to the family.

Seeing that the female ghosts would soon be closely approaching, with a ferocious mouth spread wide open like a beast of prey, that looked like it can swallow Auston down, the other people trembled with fear and retreated several steps back, their gazes unconsciously fell on Gu Wuji's body.  

At this time, the only one who could come forwards to save someone is Gu Wuji alone!

However, it would also be useless even if Gu Wuji would take a brave step forward and sacrifice himself to dance with the female ghost at this time, as there were still this many female ghosts waiting here!

Let alone them, dancing with something like female ghosts would absolutely be impossible to do! It seems that Auston will have to do it no matter what this time……

“To all the ladies, sorry for the disruption.” Gu Wuji finally stepped forward with a straightened back and started speaking, he took hold of Auston's hand when speaking, then stated: “This time, Auston-shaoye had plans to dance with me, so I have no other choice but to apologize to all of you.”

The way Gu Wuji spoke can be said to be extremely heartfelt, in addition to that sincere gaze of his, which vaguely revealed a bit of complicated feelings towards Auston, it didn't look like a pretense no matter which angle it was seen from.  

Of course, this was nothing more than an act that Gu Wuji achieved by having the professional quality of an actor.

The stupefied players: “……”

The female ghosts: “……”

The other players even felt shocked at first, yet later managed to realized, that this was a method Gu Wuji employed for the purpose of saving Auston! Because Gu Wuji's acting skills were too outstanding, even they almost believed that the other party had really fallen in love with this male npc……

Even the same players like Jiang Ling and the others were almost duped by Gu Wuji, even more so with those female ghosts, they suddenly showed an embarra.s.sed smile.

Heaven knows, how Zheng-ge and the others were able to make out such an embarra.s.sed emotion in the terrible faces of those female ghosts.

“This is really embarra.s.sing, I didn't expect for Auston-shaoye to actually……then we won't be bothering you anymore.” The female ghosts started retreating one after another, not expecting Auston-shaoye to actually have a problem with his s.e.xual orientation, it would only be natural that they will no longer have any bit of interest towards him anymore.

Everyone seeing this kind of situation, let out a sigh of relief, their hearts began to admire Gu Wuji's quick-thinking, to have actually thought this kind of method to persuade these female ghosts in withdrawing, without even needing to sacrifice his life, so the problem now must have been solved, right?

However, when their gazes fell on the face of Auston-shaoye, their smiling expression immediately solidified.

Auston handsome looks, which had always been adorned with an insufferably arrogant and self-indulgent expression, at this time, actually had a few points of, how was this described……he actually, had an apologetic look! And still used this kind of subtle expression to look at Gu Wuji, “I didn't expect, you actually, towards me……”

Everyone: “……!!”

Kao*, what, what is this development turning to.

*cuss word

Although they once had heard about this from the players forum, that there was a powerful character that had maxed out a favorable impression limit of an npc in order to get all kinds of information, but being able to directly see this kind of scene was the first time, ah!

Not to mention someone like Auton, if they had been saved several times by such a beautiful person, they too would probably have been emotionally affected……of course, their s.e.xual orientation were quite normal, it was merely because of this suspension bridge effect with the addition of the outstanding face value of the other party.

It was really very amazing. That Zheng-ge and several people for a moment was already suspecting that Gu Wuji in reality was that sort of big-shot with corrupt practices which was referred to in those forum, who went into this copy to casually play.

Gu Wuji became stunned when he saw the reaction of the other party, and started to be doubtful, had his acting skill really been this powerful? That it actually made Auston mistakenly believe that he had an interest towards him.

Gu Wuji originally wanted to immediately open his mouth to explain, but noticing that there was still a lot of eerie spectating eyes in the surroundings that were surveying them, if an explanation was made, maybe it would draw the attention of those ghosts.  

He could only hold his tongue for the time being, but Gu Wuji avoided Auston's question, hoping that the other person will realize the hints in the words, “Auston-shaoye, are you willing to dance with me?”  

“Of course, it's not a problem.” Auston said, and a rarely seen blush was actually seen, then opened his mouth and spoke in an arrogant manner in order to cover it up, “But I don't think you would know how to dance, so I will properly guide you, to not let me lose face.”

Soon after, the lights in the hall dimmed, as the melodious music sounded, others such as the dining tables and a few other miscellaneous things were also removed one after another, the dance here was really about to start.

What made people horrified was, those surrounding staff members carrying the instruments, were no longer human beings, but were skeletons.

The music played by the skeletons was extremely eerie, without knowing how much terrible it was compared to the matching sound effects they heard in the haunted attractions they went to in reality before.

At this moment, the wind and waves outside also became even more bigger, upon hitting the s.h.i.+p's hull, the sounds it produced made people uneasy.

Zheng-ge and the others originally wanted to stay in the corner to hide, to wait for this dance to finish, but as they stood beside by the window wall, some rubbing noises were suddenly heard from the gla.s.s window behind their backs the noise produced made their whole body feel numb.

Several people then turned their heads to look back, they impressively saw dead bodies filled with water stains at the other side of the gla.s.s, with their entire body tightly attached to it, the bloated faces were very close at hand, the sharp nails were unceasingly scratching the gla.s.s' windows.

“Fu** me!” “What are these!”

“Did they climb out from the water? What the h.e.l.l is actually going on with this place--”

Everyone was so scared that their souls almost flew, they were not convinced with the quality of this gla.s.s, and could only muster their courage to go to the center of the hall, the other people were already dancing, when they were standing still, the surrounding ghosts looked at them with estranged gazes.

“It seems that it is necessary to dance.”

It just so happens that they were still 4 people left behind, without much deliberation, several people braced themselves to danced with each other, the gazes of the surrounding ghosts went away at this time.

At the same time, their heart's rejoiced that they hadn't left the banquet site before, even though there were a lot of ghosts in this hall, but at least the calm and peaceful appearance was still maintained on the surface. If a person had been outside, perhaps there will not even be an intact corpse at the face of death! As expected, this banquet scene was an indispensable part of this copy.

Auston on the other side, entered the dance floor with Gu Wuji, while holding some beautiful fantasies in his heart, but soon, most of his initial charming and gentle thoughts faded away.

With only one reason, Gu Wuji was really unable to dance, and constantly stepped on the other party's foot. Fortunately, Gu Wuji did not apply any strength at the moment, otherwise, Auston-shaoye's foot would have been completely abolished.

When had Auston, a young master that that had always been pampered and spoiled since childhood suffer this kind of grievance? Had wanted to flare-up several times, but held back after seeing Gu Wuji's innocent expression, telling himself that this kind of incident was still very normal.

As a matter of fact, Gu Wuji also did not put his heart into dancing at all, but was rather observing the surroundings and the other side of the window wall, he had always kept in mind the previous things in his dreams, looking past and beyond the window wall, in the middle of the pitch-black darkness, there seem to be a vague feeling that a pair of eyes has been constantly watching him.  

If that dream was real, then that gaze that had been constantly watching him, came from the middle of the deep sea……

Gu Wuji forced himself to s.h.i.+ft his line of sight, to no longer continue in looking outside.

As for the hall, the captain's figure had been long gone, not knowing where he had gone to. As far as the eyes can see, only the completely oblivious living people and the dead people dancing together with this strange music can be seen.

It was just like with the exception of the several of them, the players, everyone else were generally immersed in some kind of dream.

Amid Gu Wuji's absentmindedness, his weary vision, suddenly brightened upon seeing the surroundings, the surrounding ghosts that were dancing gracefully had turned into normal people, and those faces were very familiar, that were exactly those tourists aboard who had forceful collisions before, included among these were even those tourists that had already turned into ghosts who's facial feature had been changed beyond recognition.

The grip on both his hands had suddenly tightened, and a thought had suddenly emerged in Gu Wuji's mind.

Who was the person dancing with him right now?

There shouldn't obviously be this kind of suspicion, but his intuition was extremely strong at this brief moment, he knows that he must look.

But at this moment, his body was just like not listening to his commands, this common matter of just s.h.i.+fting his line of sight was extremely difficult to do, just when he was finally about to look at that person--

The veined pattern on the arm suddenly became scalding, suddenly drawing Gu Wuji's consciousness back.

His complexion suddenly became pale white, only feeling that the dream a moment ago had already consumed too much of his strength, when he raised his head again to look at the face opposite of him, only the face of Auston was seen, and nothing else.

Gu Wuji couldn't help but reflect on it, “What's this all about, what exactly did I just see?”

According to common sense, this kind of scene was not possible to appear on this s.h.i.+p now, although it was not a problem to say that it was an illusion a ghost created……but his intuition feels that, the illusion he saw was an indescribably mysterious thing, this must certainly be something like a sign.

Then looked towards the other players around, who were rigidly dancing with a twisted complexion, especially Zheng-ge and Jiang Ling who were forced to dance together, the complexion of the two people had already been exceedingly unpleasant, but could still only force themselves to dance in order to survive……

It seems like the other people had not seen the illusion a while ago.

Gu Wuji suddenly remembered that aboard this s.h.i.+p he had always been unable to use his ghost control to summon a ghost in the surrounding, looking outside again, the winds and waves at this moment had already been much peaceful, even the dead bodies outside the gla.s.s windows had completely disappeared, as if the previous scenes was something they had dreamed.

At this time, he suddenly saw something.

“Auston-shaoye, I have something to do, so I will be leaving first.” Gu Wuji said.

“Ei? En? Wait a moment, you……” Auston had still no yet reacted, when Gu Wuji had already released his hands, and had quickly threaded and disappeared into the crowd.

Auston who had been left behind bowed his head to look at his hands that had been released, and couldn't help but have a sense of loss.

No one had noticed, that an impressive b.l.o.o.d.y vein pattern had just appeared in one of his eyes.

……

“Y-you can't come over!”

Jack stood at the edge of the boat's deck, with an extremely unpleasant look, the body couldn't help but retreat several steps back, and directly slammed into the railing.

He already couldn't move back anymore.

Standing in front of him, were a pair of monsters, even though some human figures could still be vaguely seen, the body's figure was similar to the build of that pair of bodyguards before, but nonetheless their appearances could no longer be already described as human beings anyway! It was like something that had just crawled out from a horror movie……

Heaven knows how this could have happened, Jack had previously been inside his room scolding this pair of bodyguards, when the boat swayed, by the time he had stood firm, the pair of bodyguards had suddenly changed greatly, changing into this current atrocious and monstrous form!

Without a doubt, Jack was so frightened that he ran outside, but no matter how he called for help, not a single person actually came out, and was even forced back into such a place by these monsters.

“How can this be? what do you want to do? I am your employer! You can't lay your hands on me!” Jack had cold sweat continuously dripping from his head.

Just at this moment, one of the monster suddenly stepped forward, the corrosive liquid in it's mouth directly dripped down in front of Jack, he was so frightened that he abruptly closed his eyes, then the crisp sound of a bone breaking was heard.

Jack opened one of his eyes, and saw that the monster's arm in front of him had already been broken, the body was also pinned to the ground by a slender figure, completely immobilizing it, as it could only let out a roar.

The other monster remaining instinctively noticed the abnormality, and unexpectedly left without much thought.  

Gu Wuji looked at the monster that was pinned to the ground by him, his heart was also relieved, as a matter of fact, a moment ago when he had seen this, the heart was also not too confident when he came over here.

His strength since childhood had already exceeded that of the ordinary people, it was also not known whether this physique had been brought about because of the frequent encounters with ghosts, it was still quite convenient to use anyway, as it also made some students in his cla.s.s feel that bullying should not be done owing to this strangeness of his.

But in the past, Gu Wuji's strength was also much more stronger compared to the ordinary people, but after entering this so-called infinite world of terror, he realized that his strength had actually increased again, and had now appeared to be extremely astonis.h.i.+ng.

Gu Wuji thought about the ghost control ability which he had previously obtained, there must certainly be something akin to strength boosting abilities that can also be obtainable in these copies……

Of course, the reason why he was able to quickly resolve this single monster like this, was primarily due to some quick a.s.sistance of the ghost control ability too, just that when the ghost control ability had been used, Gu Wuji was clearly able to feel that, there had still been another strange force that was contending against him, that made him incapable of thoroughly controlling these low-leveled ghosts.

Jack after seeing Gu Wuji, finally released a sigh of relief, the heart still wondered how great Auston's luck had to eventually be able to hire this kind of bodyguard! He was more reliable compared to that pair of bodyguards that had become monsters, he immediately stabilized his mood and started speaking: “How much money did Auston spend to hire you? I will double the amount!”

“No need.” Gu Wuji said without thinking the matter through, him coming out to save people was nothing more than a convenience, his original intention as a matter of fact was still for the purpose of validating something.

Lowering his head to look at the monster before him, Gu Wuji's palm was emitting a little light that an ordinary people will generally be unable to see, this was exactly the purification skill which he spent 1000 points to buy before.

Logically speaking, this purification skill was capable of directly purifying those mindless low-leveled ghosts.

But under the light's radiance, the monster only struggled even more fiercely, in addition to suffering extreme pain, there was not the slightest trace of being purified.

“System, why is this?”

[Because the resentment of this ghost has not yet been lifted, so it's unable to be purified.]

“But it's only a low-leveled ghost, isn't it?”

The system no longer replied again.

Gu Wuji having heard up to here, already had a notion in his mind.

Since he had successfully completed his verification, Gu Wuji immediately let this lone monster go, that monster scrambled to run away.

Even though it resembled a monster, but was in fact still a ghost, Gu Wuji really didn't have any ability to hurt or kill them, and could only be handled this way.

“What was that all about!?” Jack suddenly looked towards Gu Wuji with dissatisfaction, “How can you allow that guy to get away, what can be done if it comes back to retaliate against me!”

Gu Wuji gave Jack a glimpse, suddenly realizing something, and quickly stepped forward, then spoke in a tone containing some oppressive manner, “Why were you suddenly able to see it's true form?”

“What why? I just saw it ah.” Jack let out a cold heng* sound, then suddenly realized something, “You really realized it early on! Yet actually never said it……you are really disregarding my life and death! Hateful, you must now protect my safety!”

*snort, humph sfx

Gu Wuji looked at Jack being like this, and became aware that he also did not know anything.

Could the reason have a relations.h.i.+p to that unexpected storm just a moment ago? Or is it because the restriction of the ghosts in this place was gradually loosening, that then made the common npc inside also notice the existence of these ghosts.

But no matter what, Gu Wuji was not that free to care about the life and death of this guy, and immediately turned to leave, “I am not your bodyguard, what I can do, you can also figure it out by yourself.”

“d.a.m.n it!” Jack who had been left behind was utterly discomfited, but did not continue to stay alone on the deck, and also ran towards the direction of Gu Wuji's departure.

Only the surrounding lights at this moment were very dim, and he for a long time was unable to find anyone, when he felt like calling Gu Wuji again, the shadow of Gu Wuji could no longer be seen.

“What's going on? This is such a shabby cruise s.h.i.+p.” Jack couldn't help but curse, and turned his head to look to the side, this place was a shop selling luxury clothes during the daytime, but looking at it during the night, the interior was already pitch-black, there was not even a bit of light, that sent forth an unspeakable kind of strangeness.

“Hateful……how can there be these kind of things……”

Jack's vigilance had subconsciously been raised, but at this time he saw a crew member that had just turned from the corner ahead and was coming over, the other hand was still holding a flashlight, as if patrolling aboard the s.h.i.+p.

“Someone's here at last.” Jack finally let out a relieved sigh, and hurriedly ran over, “What is going on, ah? This shabby s.h.i.+p of yours is really--”

After clearly seeing crew member's face, his face had already been filled with fear, the remaining words were stuck on his throat, and was no longer able to speak out even half of his words.

……

The banquet had finally ended.

The instant the door opened, Zheng-ge and the others almost couldn't wait to rush out, only Jiang Ling still remembered to watch over Auston, in case this employer encountered something dangerous.

They just happened to b.u.mp into Gu Wuji who was hurriedly returning.

Just a moment ago, Gu Wuji had unexpectedly rushed out immediately, this courage was also too big, they have actually seen it, but they simply didn't have the courage to run together with the other.

Had it been an ordinary person, running out at that time was simply courting death, ok! But in Gu Wuji's case……they actually felt that it was very reasonable at that time.

But taken into account that Auston was at the side, the other people were also unable to open their mouth to ask what had actually happened.

“What happened? Where have you been?” Auston's mood seemed to be not very good, and even henged when he saw Gu Wuji.

“Auston-shaoye, I extremely apologize, there was something I needed to do so I went out.” Gu Wuji being aware of why the other party was angry, immediately said an apology: “I will definitely stay by your side properly next time.”

“That's pretty much it!” Auston looked, with some feeling of fuming in rage between gritted teeth, “But you are a high paid bodyguard I hired, if you do not protect me, who else do you want to protect?”

The other people chose to shut their mouth, it was their first time seeing this kind of wonderful thing in a copy, how to say, this kind of plot seemed like those dog blood* drama that appears on television……

*melodramatic, contrived

Gu Wuji himself had been dumbfounded, but he was completely unaware that Auston actually had a bit of meaning towards him, and always mistakenly believed that Auston's displeasure was the result of him not performing his bodyguard duties well, so he quickly opened his mouth to a.s.sure that this absolutely wouldn't happen in the future, and will definitely follow after Auston properly.

Only then was Auston satisfied.

The other people: “……” There's always a subtle feeling that these two people were not in the same frequency, ah.

Anyway, this dangerous evening banquet had finally ended, after everyone escorted Auston into his room, Gu Wuji talked with the others about the general idea of what had happened after encountering Jack*, and a.s.sumed that this s.h.i.+p might be getting more and more dangerous, then returned in the room with Jiang Ling.

*It actually says George (name) a typo maybe?

Gu Wuji after was.h.i.+ng up, had still drawn the widow curtains closed, not seeing the sea's surface made him feel much at ease, only after this did he go to bed.

At this moment, Jiang Ling who was at the side suddenly opened his mouth to ask: “About the captain's diary, what do you plan to do?”

“Look at it tomorrow.” Gu Wuji thought a bit then said: “We'll take advantage of the time when the captain is absent, as I've already memorized the route, there shouldn't be any problem.”

Tonight's conversation was too fast, moreover, everyone's mind was already quite tired, if something was done again, they wouldn't be able to have the energy to run away when a ghost will be encountered.

“Ok.” Jiang Ling's complexion changed a bit, as if thinking about an extremely cautious matter, then  with some hesitation finally started speaking to him: “I originally did not want to say it, but since it's you, I will tell you.”

If it was this person before him, he will certainly not do that sort of thing like killing his own teammates without hesitation for the purpose of getting away.

“What?” Gu Wuji looked towards him with confusion.

“I also don't know whether you were already aware of this, that before coming to this copy, I used some points to buy a clue.” Jiang Ling stated.

Gu Wuji: “……it was actually possible to use points to buy clues?”

Jiang Ling: “……???”

What the fu**, you actually didn't know about any clues?!

All of them thought that Gu Wuji actually got a hold of the most detailed clue for him to be this audacious, alright!

Jiang Ling felt that things were even more urgent, and immediately started speaking: “Anyway, I will tell you now. The clue which I have received, is about this s.h.i.+p……”

He pulled out a piece of paper from his body and directly handed it over to Gu Wuji.

Gu Wuji took that offered paper examining it very carefully, this should be a corner of the newspaper, written on it was impressively about a s.h.i.+p having an accident on the sea, the s.h.i.+p's body was still very fine, but all the people inside had disappeared.

In addition to this, all the other parts were completely torn away, any of the other content's details were not known.

At first glance, it will be thought that the accident that had occurred in this s.h.i.+p was of several years ago from this article, but Gu Wuji took careful notice of the date above, and was immediately startled, he immediately pulled out his cellphone and looked at the date.

The date in the newspaper, was actually a few more days from now.

“That's right, written on this piece of newspaper, is exactly the incident of what will happen on this s.h.i.+p in the future.” Jiang Ling said: “The clues received after spending points are generally random, and it will also not be written so clearly, so people will need to take a risk……although it was said that there are special means to know more, but that is not something that ordinary players like us can know. ”

“So that's it.” Gu Wuji nodded his head.

So that's why Jiang Ling was so certain that there were problems with the captain before, he was after all, very certain of what was going to happen on this s.h.i.+p in the future.

“There was no prompt on how many days this s.h.i.+p would be voyaging, but it's very obvious, that the time we have left is probably not much.” Jiang Ling's complexion was unpleasant while he spoke, “We must obtain the captain's diary tomorrow, if not……”

Who knows what will actually happen to this s.h.i.+p afterwards!

Just at this moment, almost half of the people on board this s.h.i.+p had already turned into ghosts, if they were too late in completing the mainline task, there's no use in thinking what would happen in the end.

After the 2 people finished their discussion, without saying anything more, immediately closed their eyes to sleep.

Jiang Ling felt very relieved, he feels that the things that had always been pressing on his heart, seemed to be a little lighter at this moment, after all, he was originally not that kind of unfeeling person.

……

In the middle of a stupor.

Gu Wuji opened his eyes, the specific location was in the middle of the bottomless sea, and was still surrounded by those mob of confused soul's of the deceased.

He once again had this dream, ah……

Gu Wuji thought blankly.

Only this time, his body could seemingly be swept away by this water's current at any moment, and seemed to be very difficult to control.

How could this be happening?

Gu Wuji's thinking in this dreamland was not that active like in reality, and faintly sensed a strange feeling.

The originally apathetic faces of the surrounding soul's of the deceased also revealed a fearful expression, it seems that there was an existence under the water that made them extremely fearful, which made them move upwards using the fastest speed.

Gu Wuji's body was also uncontrollably going along with them, very soon, he was able to clearly see the destination of the soul's of the deceased.

It was that cruise s.h.i.+p.

It was obviously at this angle, but Gu Wuji from inside the water was strangely able to clearly see the people with indistinct facial features dancing inside through the cruise s.h.i.+p's window wall, and was also able to see those dead bodies hurriedly clamoring to climb on the periphery of the cruise s.h.i.+p, their distorted and bloated faces had an expression which can be considered frantic.

It was exactly like, if a person can be found to subst.i.tute for them, they could in a general sense be relieved.

……

The spirit was suddenly given a shock, waking Gu Wuji up.

He clutched his forehead, realizing that his dream a moment ago was of that dance before, of the things that had happened outside the s.h.i.+p's cabin.  

At this moment it can be a.s.sumed that, maybe the disappearance of the people aboard this s.h.i.+p in the end, was not only because the people on board had turned into ghosts, but was more probably in the dangers coming from the ocean.

Gu Wuji lowered his head, looking at his own wrist, on that veined pattern that was related with that cult that was becoming more vivid and scorching.

“What in the end is this? Is it this which made me had that dream……”
