Chapter 1627: The Road of Resentful Ghosts.

He took the water bag and poured it on the clay figure's head. The speed at which the dry mud melted was much faster than Li Bai had imagined. After a while, Hu Jingyi's head was exposed.

However, Hu Jingyi now was very different from the fair-skinned painting teacher in their impression. His eyeballs were gone, and they became two blood holes. His whole face showed an extremely terrifying distortion, and his shriveled skin was close to his bones, as if it had been squeezed dry.

The most terrifying thing was his mouth. The corners of his mouth were torn and his gums were turned outward. Li Bai could imagine that this was caused by the flesh tentacles of the Goddess of Injection.

The torn mouth was still squirming and making a faint sound.

Hu Jingyi couldn't see the two of them in this state. I think he must have heard their voices, so he used his last strength to call their names.

"How are you?" Li Bai poured a little water into Hu Jingyi's mouth. The other party was clearly dehydrated.

"Hehe"

But what Li Bai and Zhang Yuanchao regretted was that now Hu Jingyi could only say his name and only made meaningless hoarse sounds from his throat, like a dying old man gasping for breath.

Zhang Yuanchao swallowed his saliva and touched Li Bai with some embarrassment, "Girl, this teacher Hu is hopeless. We can't take him away in this state."

Li Bai naturally understood this truth. If she could save him, she would save him. If she couldn't save him, no one could do anything. But Li Bai thought that if Hu Jingyi still had a little consciousness, she might be able to find out some information here, such as who brought him here and wrapped him up like a clay sculpture, and she might even know how to leave here.

Thinking of this, Li Bai fed Hu Jingyi some more water, "Teacher Hu, can you hear us? I am Li Bai."

"My girl, you can't stay here for long, don't be too kind and hurt yourself."

Seeing that Li Bai had no intention of leaving, Zhang Yuanchao was very anxious, after all, the statue of the Goddess of Life not far away was still staring at him.

"Li Bai"

"Zhang Zhang Shanke"

Hearing this, Li Bai's face changed instantly. Zhang Shanke was the name given to Zhang Yuanchao by Hu Jingyi and his group. The word Shanke describes a person who takes people into the mountains, which is similar to a tour guide in today's terms.

While Hu Jingyi was still conscious, Li Bai quickly asked the most critical question, "Hu Jingyi, do you know how to leave here?"

"Hehe" Hu Jingyi's shriveled face twisted more and more, and his body wrapped in dry mud actually trembled for no reason, as if he was facing great pain, "Hehehe below, in the belly"

"Ahhh!"

Hu Jingyi, who was weak just now, suddenly screamed like crazy, and the screams were sharp enough to pierce the eardrums. Along with the screams, a devastating scene appeared. There was a fierce scratching sound from Hu Jingyi's body, and then the mud shell on his abdomen suddenly cracked, and a dark baby hand came out, with sharp nails growing on the fingertips reflecting cold light.

Zhang Yuanchao, who was squatting on the ground, didn't react and was almost scratched by the scratching baby's hand.

As the strange baby broke out of the shell, Hu Jingyi struggled a few times, tilted his head, and died.

Li Bai pulled up Zhang Yuanchao, who was slumped on the ground, and the two turned around and ran deep into the tunnel.

The voice that Hu Jingyi had just uttered before his death triggered a chain reaction, and scratching sounds began to sound one after another in the originally quiet tunnel.

More and more strange babies woke up, and Li Bai didn't know what kind of monster it was.

"Li Bai!"

"Zhang Shanke!"

The strange calls echoed in the depths of the tunnel, as if coming from all directions.

And the strange baby that crawled out of Hu Jingyi's stomach was already chasing them at an incredibly fast speed. Li Bai turned his head and glanced at the black shadow that shuttled through the darkness at the edge of the tunnel, stepping on clay figures to chase them. Li Bai couldn't see it clearly, but the outline looked like a wild monkey without hair.

"Be careful!"

Suddenly pushed, Li Bai staggered a few times and almost fell down. A strong wind came from behind him, and was blocked by the burly Zhang Yuanchao.

Li Bai quickly stood up and looked at a clay figure a few meters away. On the clay figure's head was a black and blue baby.

The baby's face was painful and hideous at the moment. One of its claws was raised. The skin and flesh on it were melting, and even the pale and tiny bones were exposed.

Zhang Yuanchao was stunned for a few seconds, and then looked at the water bag on his waist. It was the water bag that blocked the attack for him just now.

However, the water bag was also scratched and leaked. Now it was gushing with water, and there were several scratches on it.

"Quickly block the water bag!"

Li Bai immediately realized that these ghosts were afraid of water. Water was like concentrated acid to these strange babies. The baby's skeleton under the well was a hint.

No wonder the villagers were instilling in them that they could not leave Heishui Village, because these ghosts were afraid of water, and there was a whole Heishui River outside the village, and there was no bridge on the river.

The injured strange baby was very ferocious, roaring and rushing towards the two again, and this time Li Bai prepared some water in his palm and poured it on the strange baby.

"Wow! Squeak! Squeak!"

The monster baby was splashed right on the face. The monkey-like monster baby rolled on the ground in pain and had no time to attack anyone.

Li Bai and the other two turned around and ran. From the sound behind them, more monster babies had awakened and were chasing them.

In the following process, they repelled several waves of strange babies with water. These strange babies were also constantly learning. They knew the power of water, so they kept testing, but few actually attacked.

Li Bai ran out of breath, "This can't continue like this, they are consuming our water."

There isn't much water left. They only have three water bladders in total. They used one for Hu Jingyi before, and then the one on Zhang Yuanchao leaked a lot. Plus what they consumed during this period, now they only have one water bladder. There is only one left.

The road ahead was still endless, and Li Bai suspected that even if they went out, they would still return to the square.

what to do?

What to do?

Just when Li Bai was upset, Zhang Yuanchao gradually stopped.

"Daughter, don't run away, it's useless."

Looking at Zhang Yuanchao's face that suddenly calmed down, Li Bai's urging words stopped in his mouth. Now Zhang Yuanchao's feeling for him suddenly changed, became complicated, became heavy, and became a little unfathomable. Suddenly he I just can’t understand it.

"This road is the road of resentful ghosts. Those educated fortune tellers also call it the lost road. Where there are many people who have died, there is a lot of resentment, and these monsters are prone to appear."

Zhang Yuanchao breathed out and said slowly: "It's not that those strange babies won't let us go, it's these people who died here who won't let us go. They have grudges in their hearts and want to keep us too."
