Chapter 1686: Rejection

"How could this happen?" Ye Qiutang couldn't stand it anymore. She didn't accept this kind of death by being cut by a blunt knife.

"Let's go to the Sutra Library and fight him to the death!" Ye Qiutang's eyes were filled with bloodshot, and she turned and rushed towards the Sutra Library.

"Don't move!" Jiang Cheng took two steps forward to hold her down and pulled her back, "Look at the footprints behind you!"

"The things behind you are also approaching you, which means that it's not my behavior that angered those ghosts, but you too!"

"Go back quickly!"

After returning to the vicinity of the Merit Hall, the ghost footprints really stopped, not only Ye Qiutang's, but also the footprints behind Jiang Cheng.

But it was just that they stopped moving. The previous few steps also shortened the distance between the two. Jiang Cheng estimated that when he noticed the ghost footprints, they were about 5 or 6 meters away from them. Now the ghost footprints have moved at least 2 meters.

The sense of crisis brought by this distance is real. Before solving the ghost footprints, they cannot leave the Merit Hall, otherwise they will be caught up and killed by the ghost footprints in a short time.

The most important thing is that this time is not enough for them to run to the Sutra Library.

There is no use in being anxious. The important thing is to solve the problem. Fatty is very anxious. He can see that Jiang Cheng is in an extremely dangerous situation, but he can't help at all. He can't even understand the situation.

If he is not familiar with Jiang Cheng, he would even suspect that this is a play that Jiang Cheng and Ye Qiutang have jointly performed for him, just like the emperor's new clothes.

The situation is getting more and more difficult. Jiang Cheng stared at the footprints. Various complicated plans appeared in his mind for a moment and were rejected by him again. Fine beads of sweat gathered on his forehead. The atmosphere became more and more anxious. Ye Qiutang had never experienced such a scene. It was good enough to be able to barely keep calm.

Slowly, a plan took shape in Jiang Cheng's mind. Since they can affect the ghost footprints, is it possible that the ghost footprints will be killed directly again? After all, Ye Qiutang also said that two people disappeared in the Merit Hall, and there were two more people behind her, which means that the ghost thing following them is essentially a monk in the temple, or possibly a Taoist priest.

"Fatty, give me the knife!"

Jiang Cheng would not be stupid enough to chop directly with a knife. He grabbed the handle of the knife, aimed, and threw the knife fiercely, with the tip of the knife pointing directly at a height of about 1 meter above the footprint.

This short knife was left by Mr. Song's group. Although it is not considered to be a knife that can cut iron and mud, it is definitely an ordinary product. With Jiang Cheng's strength and accuracy, as long as the opponent has human physical attributes, then this knife will basically kill him.

But the next second, the knife suddenly hit the air above the ghost footprint, and it made a crisp sound, which was the sound of metal hitting stone, and then the knife bounced off.

"It's useless..."

Although this result was also expected, it still made Jiang Cheng irritable.

"We can't hurt these evil spirits at all, so what about them?" Ye Qiutang seemed to have thought of something, and the whole person became extremely excited, "We can use these evil spirits to influence themselves, just behind us, keep a good distance."

Ye Qiutang's narration was a bit confusing, but Jiang Cheng quickly understood what she meant. She wanted to use these ghosts to influence each other, that is, to use the evil spirits behind her to check the evil spirits behind her.

Since these ghosts only exist in the space that he and Ye Qiutang can see, what if these ghosts collide with each other?

Will it cause some new friction?

Just do it, since these things are following him, it is also advantageous to deal with them. Jiang Cheng calculated the distance, he and Ye Qiutang closed their eyes, then back to back, and walked to both sides at the same time. The advantage of this is that the ghosts following them will overlap at a certain distance, and this is very likely to be their chance to break the situation.

One step, two steps... Jiang Cheng silently estimated the distance in his heart. Just when he was about to touch the string in his heart, he was suddenly pushed forward by an inexplicable force.

"Hmm?"

At the same time, a low cry came from Ye Qiutang, who seemed to have the same experience as Jiang Cheng.

"Don't move!"

After Jiang Cheng asked Ye Qiutang to stand still, he slowly retreated alone, but he found that he couldn't retreat. There was always a strange force affecting him. If he had to describe it, it would be similar to the repulsion of like magnets.

Finally, Jiang Cheng made up his mind and rushed behind him, but the result was that Ye Qiutang, who was 10 meters away, was almost knocked down.

"It still doesn't work..."

The successive failures also made Jiang Cheng more and more irritable. There was not much time left for them. There might be a big hurdle in the Sutra Library.

Jiang Cheng finally made up his mind and looked at the fat man, and as if he was inspired, the fat man nodded naturally, "Whatever you need me to do, just tell me."

"Fatty, I need you to go see Monk Huicong and get involved."

"Okay." The fat man nodded without thinking, and then walked towards the window.

"Wait, listen to me!" Jiang Cheng interrupted, "You have to go to the other side first, the position where we started to wait and see, go there and come back."

Jiang Cheng took out his mobile phone in front of Ye Qiutang and called the fat man, "Keep talking to me, don't hang up, go first, and come back quickly."

Jiang Cheng had no choice but to do this because he was worried that the fat man might be in danger or even replaced on the way. He wanted to go with the fat man, but he was worried that the thing behind him would continue to approach. Jiang Cheng probably understood that he and Ye Qiutang were confined in a radius of about 10 meters with the window in front of them as the center.

Once they got out of this circle, they would face the pursuit of ghost footprints.

"Don't say useless words, sing any song, don't stop." Jiang Cheng instructed on the phone, and the fat man was about to leave his sight.

Singing can relieve tension. At the same time, if the fat man was really replaced, Jiang Cheng didn't believe that the ghost would sing to him on the other end of the phone. At least the ghosts in this temple are unlikely to do such a thing.

Fortunately, the fat man came back soon, and it took only a few minutes. After returning, Jiang Cheng had found a good position. He and Ye Qiutang were facing each other, and the distance between them was just enough to feel the repulsive force. In Jiang Cheng's understanding, he and Ye Qiutang had "squeezed" the two ghosts tightly together.

According to Jiang Cheng's estimation, after the fat man also triggered the "Ponytail Girl" curse, a new footprint ghost would appear on the two ghosts that were tightly squeezed together, and then two situations would occur.

First, the space was compressed and the three of them were squeezed apart again.

Second, after the three ghosts overlapped, unpredictable events occurred, and the consequences were unknown.
