The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters

Chapter 92 The Curse of the Third Party
Two confrontations.

It was enough to make the red-faced monster have a deep understanding of Yu Ke's methods.

As Ye Yingtong speculated, it no longer attempted a head-on confrontation, but instead used various means to create "accidents."

Broken street lights, out-of-control harvesters, and flying nails
Throughout the afternoon, Ye Yingtong was like a human-shaped broom star. All kinds of unreasonable accidents would happen wherever she went.

Fortunately, Yu Ke had anticipated this, and he actually got into a fight with the red-faced demon and "marked" Ye Yingtong closely.

Outstanding perception coupled with strong personal strength has repeatedly saved danger.

However, considering that there were many ordinary people in the ranch, in order to avoid hurting innocent people, Yu Ke took Ye Yingtong to the vacant grazing area.

One person moves a wicker chair.

Apart from the lush wilderness for hundreds of meters, there is only sunshine and cool breeze.

Ye Yingtong's thin body was huddled in a chair, wrapped in a blanket, her pale face facing the orange-red sunset. Her lips had lost all color due to long-term insomnia, and her eyes were unfocused in the vast wilderness. Wandering, the dark circles under the eyes are particularly obvious.

The short period of calm made him feel sleepy, and his eyelids felt as heavy as lead.

It was at this time that a can of cold drink was stuffed into the warm neck. Ye Yingtong was shocked. She hurriedly raised her head and saw Yu Ke standing next to her with her neck raised and drinking a soda.

"It's best to endure the last few hours. If you are attacked in your sleep, I can't help you."

While talking, Yu Ke raised his foot and kicked away the poisonous snake in the grass, and said,
"The seventeenth sneak attack, half an hour has passed since the last one, and the frequency has dropped significantly. I think the guy is almost tired. Even if a ghost has no physical strength, it should have an energy bar, right?"

Facts have proved that the red-faced sprite's ability is limited, far from reaching the level of rules-based killing such as the Midnight Bell, or that it itself is bound by certain rules and cannot exert its full power.

"There is a research department within Danhang University sponsored by the Disaster Prevention Bureau that specializes in spiritual paranormal phenomena. They believe that most evil spirits are a collection of negative energy, resentment, anger, and despair, so researchers are more inclined to Yu calls the ghost a curse and believes that as long as the source of the curse is found, it can be eliminated!"

As a folklorist who often participates in relic archaeological activities, Ye Yingtong often communicates with researchers from other departments in the team, and in the process will be more or less exposed to some knowledge about supernatural phenomena.

"The red-faced sprite chose you as its target because of the curse?"

Sitting in the wicker chair, Yu Ke suddenly asked,
"According to you, it is a ghost that lives in the red ghost mask. Now it has broken away from the mask and appeared in this pasture dozens of kilometers away from Danhang City, just to kill you. I hate you so much, you Did you have a blood feud with it in your previous life?"

Yu Ke had been confused since he promised Ye Yingtong to help her deal with the red-faced monster. He just didn't find a chance to be alone with Ye Yingtong, so he couldn't speak in front of Luo Ling. Now that they are here, there is no way. Cover up if necessary.

The red ghost mask is an old object from a hundred years ago, and Ye Yingtong is only in her twenties. If there is any connection between them, it can only be the latter.

Ye Yingtong is a smart person and quickly understood the meaning behind Yu Ke's words.

After opening the cold soda and taking a big gulp to cheer up, Ye Yingtong looked at Yu Ke and said solemnly,

"I didn't hide any information. I haven't figured out why the red-faced sprite considered me a target until now, but the attack that happened after I came to the farm made me aware of a certain possibility."

"Say it, I'm listening."

"It is a confirmed fact that the red-faced sprite is attached to the red ghost mask. Under normal circumstances, when this kind of spirit body is far away from the existence it is attached to, its abilities in all aspects will show a decline. On the other hand, the red-faced sprite has increased contrary to common sense. .”

Raising her hand to knead her eyebrows and forcing her brain to spin, Ye Yingtong glanced at Yu Ke, pursed her lips and continued,

"I guess it is bound by the Red Ghost Mask. Only when it is far away from the mask can its power be exerted. Combined with its attack behavior of treating me as a target, it may be my illusion. The Red Ghost Mask seems to be protecting me?"

This idea was so absurd that Ye Yingtong had some self-doubt after finishing speaking, and looked at Yu Ke with hesitation and panic.

"Want to know what I think about the red-faced sprite's attack on you?"

With his arms folded across his chest, Yu Ke raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and said with a smile,

"It's just my personal guess. Have you ever been jealous of a man? Well, women can do that too."

"I don't quite understand what you mean. I have been busy taking postgraduate entrance examinations in the past few years and have never been in love."

The topic span is a bit too big, right?

"You can think of the red ghost mask as a man, and the red-faced monster as the little woman attached to it. Their lives were originally very happy, and they could be said to be inseparable. However, as a third party, you forced your way in, and ultimately destroyed this happiness. .”

"The exploration team you participated in discovered the Red Ghost Face. In turn, it also saw you and thought you were more beautiful than the Red Faced Sprite. It wanted to abandon Chaohuang's wife and pursue you. Therefore, your current identity seems to be somewhat uninformed. Mistress, can you understand what I mean?"

"."

Yu Ke's wonderful metaphor really shocked Ye Yingtong. At first, she thought it was ridiculous and illogical, but after thinking about it, she felt it was somewhat credible.

The red ghost face does not allow the red-faced sprite attached to it to kill Ye Yingtong. This explains why the red-faced sprite is subject to various restraints in Danhang City.

Even if he comes to the farm, the red ghost face can't attack directly, because it will be noticed by the red ghost face, so he can only kill Ye Yingtong by creating an accident, otherwise the "husband and wife relationship" will break down.

"Then what should I do? I didn't mean to get involved in their marriage. Bah, I didn't want to develop a relationship with Chi Gui Mian!"

Ye Yingtong covered her face, feeling that her three views were challenged by Yu Ke's explanation.

She really didn't know what it was about herself that could attract Red Ghost Face.

"Do you still remember what I told you before that you need to lure the red-faced sprite out to kill it?"

Yu Ke stood up from the chair, put his hands on his hips, turned to look at Ye Yingtong,
"What do you think will happen that will make it furious and kill you at all costs?"

"NTR?"

The postgraduate entrance examination is a postgraduate entrance examination, and Ye Yingtong occasionally reads some literary works.

"That's right, stop sitting here, quickly find a place with a good network, download a few videos of Red Ghost Masks, and then ask Tang Jingyun to go to a nearby supermarket to buy two masks or a drawing book, and put the Red Ghost Masks on If you draw it, that little bitch will definitely want to fight with you!"

Yu Ke whistled, picked up two chairs and walked back, with Ye Yingtong following closely behind.

Not far away, the Tang brothers began to prepare the barbecue grill and dipping sauces, while Luo Ling was responsible for washing the vegetables and bringing along skewers of corn and potato chips.

There will be a barbecue party later, and Yu Ke thinks this is the time for Ye Yingtong to show off her acting skills. The latter still couldn't help but grab Yu Ke's arm after walking for a while, and asked in a rather tangled voice,

"We are sometimes too hasty in drawing conclusions like this. After all, it is just an inference based on the available information, and the actual situation may be completely contrary to what we think."

"I never said that this guess is 100% accurate. Even if I guess wrong, you won't lose anything. You have to wait for it to appear no matter what, right? Why don't you wait somewhere?"

Yu Ke just proposed a plan that could be tried.

After all, no matter how absurd the speculation is, it is better than waiting for death.

At least there is a direction to work towards.

"The red-faced sprite must use foreign objects when it retaliates. It is very difficult to react and catch it in the first place."

"You don't have to worry about that. I'll give it an attack opportunity it can't refuse."

Yu Ke knew very well that this method could only be used once, and it was best to ensure that he could defeat the enemy with one blow, otherwise it would be easy to have long nights and nightmares.

"Whether my plan can succeed or not depends on how angry you can make the red-faced demon. For your own life, try your best to play the role of mistress. If I guess wrong, we can only continue to wait. I don't care. , you are in danger."

Ye Yingtong didn't reply. She was probably already brewing her emotions and getting ready to enter the drama.

Rather than just waiting to die, she is willing to work hard for her own survival, even if Yu Ke's plan sounds a bit unreliable.

Taking advantage of the fact that it still took some time to sort out the ingredients, Yu Ke asked Tang Bin to go to the supermarket as quickly as possible.

I couldn't find a mask similar to the red ghost face, but I could easily buy blank drawing books and pencils.

The barbecue party started as usual.

Yu Ke and the others should be eating and drinking, and the atmosphere was quite lively. Ye Yingtong, who was sitting next to Yu Ke, brought her mobile phone to the table and opened the photo taken by the exploration team before delivering the red ghost noodles to the Disaster Prevention Bureau. For videos, increase the brightness and angle so that the surroundings can be seen.

Her painting skills are very good. Even if she is tracing on the video, she can still capture the details of the red ghost face.

Draw several sketches in a row and bend them into a mask shape and attach them to your face.

In the middle of the process, he deliberately made a dissatisfied expression, bit the end of the pencil, crumpled the drawing paper and threw it aside, tilting his head as if imagining what he would look like wearing the red ghost mask.

The evening breeze blowing from nowhere picked up the scraps of manuscripts under the wicker chair and scattered them to the fence ten meters away.

Kara~kara~
Small cracks emerged from the tops of the fence posts.

The unscrupulousness of the "mistress" finally touched the bottom line of the "original wife"!

　There will be more later
