Boss, do you have a guess?

Qu Mo was stunned for a moment, then calmly chose to stop.He knew that the current situation was almost like the legendary ghost hitting the wall.He believes that if Bai Wangchuan finds out about the problem, he will definitely come back to rescue him as soon as possible, so the safest way for her now is to stand where she is and not make any moves.This will make it easier for Bai Wangchuan to take action, and will not cause any irreversible consequences because of his running around.

However, it backfired.

He had just persuaded himself to calmly stop on the spot, when he heard a burst of unhurried footsteps behind him.

Qu Mo turned his head.

Then his breathing stopped for a moment, and his eyes widened.

It's very dark around now, and there is no light at all.It stands to reason that he shouldn't be able to see anything, but he just saw a baby-faced girl in a dress staring at him behind him.

The little girl's face was bloodless.

Especially in such a dark place without a trace of light, it is even more terrifying.

Of course this is not the point.

The point is that the child's black eyes seemed to have been hollowed out by someone. He just looked at Qu Mo quietly, then tilted his head, showing a chilling smile.

Qu Mo's breath stagnates.

Anyone with a little brain can tell that this kid is definitely not a good person.But what if you can see it?If he ran around now, he was really not sure what would happen.Or, at this moment, fortunately, he still has reason.Looking at this child who suddenly appeared, he even wondered if she existed just to make him run around so that he could kill himself in this terrible building.

When Qu Mo thought of this, his mind suddenly settled down.

When he looked up at the girl again, he found that most of his original fear seemed to be gone.

"Uncle, what are you doing here?"

What he didn't expect was that after another eye contact, the girl actually asked him a question.

Qu Mo was stunned for a moment.

After a moment of silence, he still decided to answer the other party.

"I'm looking for a friend of mine."

Of course, the answer is the answer, and it is not necessarily true or false.

But the girl obviously didn't think it was a lie, and there was no emotion in those big empty eyes.Just holding the doll in her arms tightly, she said, "Then uncle, where are you going to find him?"

"I don't know," Qu Mo shrugged, and asked half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Will you take me to find him?"

The little girl tilted her head and thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Of course, I'm still very familiar with this place."

Qu Mo didn't expect the other party to answer like this, but the situation was so weird that he couldn't believe the little girl in front of him at all.So facing the other party's proposal, whether it was a good intention or a trap, she just smiled, shook her head and said, "Let's forget it, this place is too dark. I can't see the stairs, and I fall easily. It's right here Wait until he comes back to find me."

The girl is still okay with that.

She looked at Qu Mo for a while, finally nodded, and stood there, as if she wanted to wait with him, without any other movements.

Qu Mo was a little confused by her behavior.

After hesitating for a while, he couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you leaving?"

"Where are you going?" the little girl asked.

Qu Mo was momentarily speechless by her question, his lips trembled slightly, and finally found a way to respond: "For example, to where you should go?"

"Where should I go?" Hearing what he said, the little girl let go of the doll in her hand.The question was on one of the hands, and the head also hung down.After a while, she said leisurely: "Actually, I don't know where I should go. By the time I realize it, I have no way to leave here."

Having said that, Qu Mo has almost confirmed one thing——

No matter what the little girl plans to do to him in the future, in short, she doesn't have any malice towards him now.

After reaching this conclusion, Qu Mo obviously relaxed a lot.He thought for a while, and finally sat down directly on the spot, letting the little girl sit beside her, and then he continued to ask, "How long have you been here?"

"I don't know," the little girl shook her head.

Although those empty eyes still couldn't see any emotion, Qu Mo somehow felt that he seemed to understand the sadness emanating from this child.

Her not-so-big body was curled up in a ball, her hands were holding her legs, and her head was resting on her knees.It seemed that she was thinking about something very far away. After a while, she said again: "I remember that I seemed to come here with my mother, but I forgot what happened, and my mother disappeared. Then I I've been looking for her for a long time, but I never found her again."

Qu Mo didn't quite understand what was going on here, so he could only change the subject and continued to ask: "Since you are very familiar with this place, shouldn't you have met other people as well?"

"Others?" The little girl looked at him again, "You mean them with long necks and half-lengths?"

Qu Mo firmly memorized these two code names in his heart.She knew that it would definitely not be a name, and judging from the code name, it should refer to the appearance of those ghosts.

Facing the little girl's question, he nodded: "Can you tell me about them?"

"They don't have anything to say," said the little girl. "They always say I'm a child and never play with me. Sometimes there are living people like you in this place, and they hate them very much. So every time I try to scare people away. But I really like people coming, like now, I haven’t had such a good chat with people for a long time.”

Qu Mo nodded.

In this way, he probably understood who was making trouble behind the scenes.

"But you said that the long necks scare human beings like me, so have they ever killed people?" Qu Mo thinks this matter needs to be confirmed.

Unexpectedly, the little girl shook her head directly, and denied his conjecture without hesitation: "They told me with long necks, even if we are trapped in this place now, when will there be a powerful man When someone comes, he will definitely be able to rescue us. But if we kill someone, it will be different, because there are sins on our body, and people with strong magic power will definitely not save us."

Qu Mo subconsciously raised his hand and touched his chin twice.

He really didn't expect that such a reasonable ghost existed.

Just as I was thinking this in my heart, I suddenly felt someone tap my shoulder twice from behind.

Subconsciously, he thought it was Bai Wangchuan who found him missing and ran back to pick him up, but when he turned around, he was really taken aback.

I saw a half-meter-long ghost whose neck was stretched very close to him, looking at him with a smile.

Qu Mo's heart almost stopped beating.But I don't know if it's because he has experienced this situation a lot, or because the little girl just told him about the "long neck" and he is mentally prepared.In short, after the first fear passed, she found that she didn't seem to be too scared anymore.

"Are you driving me away?" Qu Mo asked calmly after trying to calm down his emotions.

Long Neck didn't speak, just continued to look at him, smiling.

"Long necks can't talk." The little girl explained to him next to him, "Usually he will be with Half Body, and if there is anything wrong, Half Body will help him."

Qu Mo nodded: "Then how should I communicate with him now?"

"This one……"

Before the little girl finished speaking, a dazzling golden light suddenly appeared beside the two of them.

With a long neck, he squatted down quickly, hugged the little girl, and disappeared directly in place.

Qu Mo only felt that the black mist blocking his vision instantly dissipated.At the same time, he also saw clearly the face of Bai Wangchuan who had just been covered by the black mist.

"As soon as I turned my head, I found that you were gone. I was really scared to death," Bai Wangchuan said with lingering fear, "I saw you chatting with two ghosts just now. They didn't do anything to you, did they?"

Qu Mo shook his head.

After thinking about the wording for a while, he finally decided not to explain, but asked instead: "Based on what you just saw, do you think they have any malice towards me?"

Bai Wangchuan said without hesitation: "There is no malice, and I didn't even intend to hurt you at all."

"I think so too," Qu Mo said, "and the little girl told me just now that every time ordinary people appear here, that long-necked ghost will try to drive them away. I don't know, I think Is it right or wrong, do you think it is because there is a big ghost in this place, with a long neck to scare people away, but to help save that person's life?"

"It's also possible," Bai Wangchuan said, "but the important thing now is that we haven't found that big ghost yet."

The corner of Qu Mo's mouth twitched, "Which floor did you go up to?"

"The third floor, but I haven't had time to check it yet." Bai Wangchuan said, "I hurried down after I found out that you didn't keep up. Let's go up again. You have to keep up this time."

Qu Mo nodded and hummed lightly.

Then, when Bai Wangchuan turned around and continued to walk upstairs, he stretched out one hand and grabbed the other hand hanging by Bai Wangchuan's side.

"This time, I will never lose it again," Qu Mo said.

Bai Wangchuan glanced back at him, finally nodded and said, "That's fine."

……

I don't know if it's because their holding hands is really useful. Although the next section of the road is much longer and more eerie than before, the strange thing is that they really haven't seen any ghosts along the way.

In this way, he walked all the way to the top floor, but Qu Mo felt that the cold feeling on his body was getting weaker and weaker. He tugged at the hands they held together, and told Bai Wangchuan about this discovery in a low voice.

"I also feel that this is the case," Bai Wangchuan said, "But we still need to go to the rooftop to have a look."

Qu Mo didn't object to this either, and followed Bai Wangchuan up the stairs leading to the rooftop.

The arrangement here is quite clean, but there is no such thing as the imagined garbage and building materials piled up in disorder.

After Bai Wangchuan went up, he walked straight towards the edge. Qu Mo was startled by him, and pulled his hand violently.Bai Wangchuan finally remembered this, turned his head and smiled brightly at him, and said, "Don't be so nervous, I'm just looking at the Feng Shui around me."

Qu Mo breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought you were going to be possessed by a ghost."

"The premise is that there is a ghost who dares to get on my body." Bai Wangchuan shrugged, walked around the rooftop twice, and finally walked to the edge and looked around, then shook his head. Said: "This situation is really dark to the limit. Logically speaking, this place is not suitable for building buildings at all. It is really a miracle that they can persist in such a forced building until now that so few people have died."

Qu Mo asked him: "Maybe it's because of that girl and the others."

"I don't know," Bai Wangchuan said, "but what I do know is that if there is such a big boss, he is definitely not on the roof of this building."

Qu Mo twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly, after all, after going up to the rooftop, he really couldn't feel any coldness other than the weather.

And what he can feel, Bai Wangchuan will definitely not be unable to feel it.

"So where should we go next?" Qu Mo asked him.

"Of course I'll go to the basement to look around again," Bai Wangchuan said, muttering softly in his mouth: "I didn't expect that it was really a routine, no matter how high-level ghosts are, they still don't like living in high-rise buildings. of."

While the two were walking downstairs, Qu Mo was thinking about the conversation he had with that little girl just now.

When he reached the first floor, Bai Wangchuan was planning to continue down the stairs.Qu Mo asked, "I suddenly remembered a question. The little girl said that she came here with her mother. But after she died, she never saw his mother again. Tell me, will it be?" Is it because his mother has something to do with this big ghost?"

"What does it matter?" Bai Wangchuan asked back.

Qu Mo scratched his head, and gave an example: "For example, it might be uncertain, but the ghost king is actually her mother?"

Bai Wangchuan sneered: "Although I don't want to hurt you, I have to tell you. If his mother really died with him, then there is another possibility of not finding the soul."

Qu Mo asked him, "For example?"

"For example, that evil ghost not only wants to live a soul, he may even absorb the soul of a dead person, and treat it as food to nourish himself."
