Chapter 27: The Basement

  On the other side, the phone on the coffee table vibrated. A slender white hand reached over and opened it, revealing a very concise message: "I need to see you!" Holding the phone for a long time, she finally casually tossed it onto the cushion beside her. Qi Xiu sank into the soft sofa, pressing the Yintang point with her thumb and index finger. Ji Su was really too much trouble, not even letting people catch their breath before stirring up more trouble.

  He had always been paying attention to Ji Su Yin, although due to special reasons, he had to maintain a relatively distant distance. To be honest, this made Qi Xiu feel very inconvenient, mainly because it made him feel more and more unhappy.

  Tonight, he's being weird again in the middle of the night, what are these people gathering for? Unexpectedly, they actually ran to the underground room of Xiuyuan Building, doing some kind of ghostly underground exploration! It's simply nonsense! Especially Qi Suyin! Although he can't be completely sure yet, her physical condition is too special, if she's not careful, something big might happen!

  He saw several people enter, and he crouched outside, unwilling to admit it. A sense of anxiety surged in his heart. If he appeared rashly, he might expose himself, but if he didn't go in, something was likely to happen.

  Just as Qi Xiu couldn't help but reveal himself and go in to find someone, two people rushed out. It seemed like they were a man and a woman among them, the woman was called Huang Xiaoyu, but the man's name was unknown. The man kept comforting the frightened Huang Xiaoyu, Qi Xiu subconsciously let out a sigh of relief and continued to wait. About five minutes later, a group of people came out, but Qi Xiu suddenly felt his breath get a bit disordered, among those people, only Ji SuYin was nowhere to be seen!

  This group of fools, they're completely unaware! Just as a few people finally realized and were about to go in to look for someone, Qi Xiu stepped out and stopped them, going in himself. Following the breath, he found Ji Su Yin.

  Standing at the entrance of the second door, the dark purple resentment of the dead soul was scattered and wrapped around her back, extremely thick. Qizhao frowned, walked over slowly, and called out her name. Ji Suoyu had no reaction, with a blank expression on her face.

  Qizhao narrowed his eyes, observing Jisu through the darkness because she was wearing glasses, so it was impossible to tell if her pupils were dilated. "Tsk!" he exclaimed, no longer caring about that, and strode a few steps forward to stand in front of Jisu, shouting again, but Jisu seemed nailed to the spot, not moving an inch.

  He felt a sense of foreboding in his heart, and quickly took off her glasses. In an instant, Qi Xiu was slightly dazed, immediately looked away, and put the glasses back on. Taking a few deep breaths, Qi Xiu tried to calm down.

  Ji Su's pupils had already scattered, but the situation didn't seem quite right. Unable to help it, Qi Xiu pulled Ji Su into his arms, their foreheads touching, and Qi Xiu concentrated his mind, sinking into Ji Su's sea of consciousness.

  At this time, even if the two were only slightly startled, Qi Xiu would either become mentally disordered or forever unable to escape from the sea of consciousness, becoming a vegetable! Qi Xiu tried his best to enter Ji Su's mind with the most gentle posture, he couldn't let Ji Su have any resistant reaction.

  Finally, Qi Xiu found that patch of darkness in the vast space filled with fluttering things, following the breath. It was still that corridor, the female ghost clinging tightly to Ji Su's back, stretching her neck close to her ear, Ji Su's face stiff, her expression twisted due to fear and pain.

  Zixiu took a deep breath, quickly approached, and faced Ji Suyan directly. He leaned in close to her other side and called out softly. Everything before him was created by Ji Suyan's own hands. In this realm, Ji Suyan was God, capable of killing anything instantly, including herself!

  Zixiu can't change the current situation, he can only guide! He was able to appear in front of Jisu because of her inner urgent desire for someone to come and save her, so he came!

  He guided her with all his might, telling her repeatedly that it was all just an illusion, to pretend she didn't see anything, that it was all fake! Ji Su's voice gradually responded, murmuring and repeating his words. In this space, time passed very slowly, but back in reality, it was only a few minutes. Ji Su finally succumbed to Qi Xiu's hypnosis and fainted. The moment Ji Su fell into his arms, the vengeful spirit was forced to leave her body, and the thing that didn't know life or death actually tried to counterattack, but before it could even touch Qi Xiu, he casually drew a golden light that sent it flying. The vengeful spirit realized that the man in front of him was not easy to mess with and quickly escaped into nothingness.

  Zixiu dragged Ji Suoyu along, not hurrying to catch up, but instead quickly checked him over. Fortunately, nothing was wrong. Letting out a sigh of relief, this place had a heavy yin energy, even those with light eight characters couldn't stay here for long! It's more important to get Ji Suoyu out of here first!

  Hurriedly walking out, I met several guys who were about to rush in. After glancing at them, I handed the Season Sound to Tian Haicheng, who seemed more reliable, and said a warning word.

  Some people's faces were shocked and slightly dissatisfied, Qi Xiu sneered in his heart! Those who know what's good for them would be better off not going to that underground room again! If anything happens, it's all their own fault for being foolish! After giving Nie Yuan a cold glance, Qi Xiu didn't say anything else and turned to leave.

  He hadn't actually gone very far, hiding in the shadows of a nearby tree, holding his breath and listening quietly. The voices of several people were all transmitted into his ears. Qi Xiu let out a low, cold laugh. That Nie Yuan wasn't wrong, he was born with a hard eight characters, but the others weren't like that, especially Ji Su Yin! If it hadn't been for him following tonight, who knows what would have happened to Ji Su Yin, but it definitely wouldn't have been anything good!

  Finally, it was Tian Haiqing who stopped the few people's boring argument and escorted Ji Suyin back. As he watched them walk down the slope, he slowly walked out of the tree shadow. He turned around to look in the direction of the university student square, then looked back at the Xi Yuan building, and inexplicably, a strange feeling welled up in his heart, as if something was not quite right!

  Knitting his brows in thought, Qi Xiu once again entered the basement and walked into the room where Ji Su had fallen. The structure was similar to the other one, with a very spacious interior that would produce echoes when walking around. He looked around and found a sealed elevator on the north wall; apart from this, the place was unexpectedly clean, without any clutter. Calming down and distinguishing the air, Qi Xiu opened his eyes, where a faint chill flashed inside.

  That vengeful spirit is extremely intelligent, even more cunning and agile than ordinary vengeful spirits! Perhaps it guessed that he would return, so it escaped early. Humph! Does it think it can escape from Qi Xiu's punishment?

  He slowly walked to the elevator door, and it was here! He raised his left hand, stretched out his index and middle fingers together, and with his right hand aimed at the fingertips, he drew a stroke. On the white and tender fingertips, a blood line appeared instantly. With extremely fast speed, he drew a standard five-pointed star in the air, and as soon as the last stroke was drawn, a circle suddenly floated outside the five-pointed star, surrounding it in the middle, with countless charms flowing around it. Qi Xiu pointed his hand, and the five-pointed star diagram immediately shot out, hitting the elevator door, flashing red light instantly, and disappearing without a trace.
