Hehehe!
The little ghosts lunged at Lu Fei and Jing Jian, laughing shrilly, as if they were excited to see new toys.
"Be careful!"
Lu Fei and Jing Jian both wielded their magical instruments in unison.
And Xiao Hei cleverly hid between the two of them.
Lu Fei was now full of magical power, his abilities went without saying, and even Jing Jian had acquired a Life-Bonded magical instrument.
So, although there were many of these little ghosts, the two people did not panic and remained calm in dealing with them.
The power of lightning from the jujube wood staff burst forth.
The Seven Star Dharma Sword glittered with starlight.
Combined, these two dharma instruments are enough to make any malevolent spirit wary, but in the glassy eyes of these little ghosts, there was no fear at all.
They seemed to not know what fear was and rushed forward one after another without hesitation.
Lu Fei swung the thunderstrike wood, aiming a blow at one of the small ghosts.
However.
A strange scene unfolded.
At the moment the small ghost was struck by the thunderstrike wood, it strangely vanished, only to reappear behind Lu Fei, pushing his legs with great force.
Lu Fei staggered forward.
The scene in front of him suddenly transformed into a steep staircase.
He hurriedly steadied himself to maintain his balance.
The little brat seemed to be gloating, clapping and laughing.
"You mischievous brat!"
Lu Fei frowned and swung his stick at the child again.
The little brat ran incredibly fast. As Lu Fei chased after him, he stepped on several slippery marbles with one step.
In front of those marbles, a scattering of sharp nails lay on the ground.
If Lu Fei were to fall onto them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Breaking out in cold sweat, he stopped and reassessed the group of little brats.
The little brats sneered around him, as if they had pulled off a successful prank, their pale figures appearing and disappearing at irregular distances.
Jing Jian was not much better off.
Although he had his life-bound magical artifact in hand, he was still being played around by the little ghosts. Sometimes he was pushed down the slide, other times he stumbled over his own feet, resulting in an extremely embarrassing situation.
And every time he made a move, the little ghosts could always dodge accurately.
In comparison, Xiao Hei was very smart; he directly avoided those little ghosts, not giving them any chance to play tricks.
"Strange!"
Lu Fei furrowed his brows; these little ghosts didn't have very strong Yin energy, so where did they get such power?
His gaze passed over the pale little ghosts and towards the darkest corner.
The pair of red-clothed little ghosts, holding hands, stood in the darkness, quietly watching them.
"Could it be that they are the ones causing trouble?"
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes and took another step, heading toward the red-clothed little ghosts.
But they remained motionless.
The pale little ghosts around rushed towards Lu Fei, as if trying to stop him.
A blood-stained red dress silently flew behind Lu Fei, and a sharp fruit knife hidden in the folds lunged at him fiercely.
"Lu Fei, be careful!"
Jing Jian, not far away, shouted a warning upon seeing this.
Lu Fei did not look back; he also sensed a bone-chilling coldness from behind.
He struck back with the thunder wood.
The power of lightning erupted.
The knife fell to the ground, and the blood-stained dress was repelled far away by the electric light.
"Woo woo woo!"
The pitiful cries of the child sounded, as if being bullied by some bad people.
The expressions of excitement on the surrounding little ghosts suddenly changed, becoming twisted and angry.
They roared, all charging towards Lu Fei.
"Lu Fei!"
Jing Jian hurried to catch up, but in his haste, he stepped on a few marbles and nearly fell onto a cluster of nails.
"Such treacherous little ghosts!"
He hadn't expected these little ghosts to be so troublesome. He hadn't taken them seriously before, and now, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, his expression became serious.
Kicking away the marbles and nails, he went to support Lu Fei.
Lu Fei was surrounded by little ghosts, but his gaze was fixed on the pair of red-clothed little ghosts in the darkest corner.
A thick, eerie aura enveloped the area.
Although their figures are small and thin, the feeling they give off is more dangerous than the sum of all these little demons.
"Ah!"
The little demons bared their teeth and pounced on Lu Fei like maddened beasts.
Lu Fei did not swing his stick as he had before, because it would not hit, but instead waited until the little demons got close, at which point the power of lightning suddenly erupted.
BOOM!
Blinding electric light sent the little demons flying in all directions.
Seizing the moment while they were still dazed, Lu Fei quickly ran toward the pair of red-clothed little demons, simultaneously channeling his magical power and delivering a powerful strike with his stick.
Electric light shot out.
Dazzling radiance illuminated the darkness.
In that instant, the faces of the two little demons were revealed.
The face, devoid of luster, was made of coarse fabric, the lips just a line, and the eyes two buttons sewn on crookedly.
They turned out to be a pair of rag dolls!
Sure enough, they are evil objects!
The pair of dolls flickered and vanished into the darkness, evading the electric light that failed to hit them.
But Lu Fei was instead elated.
He was afraid that after all the effort, he would only encounter some evil spirits. As long as they were evil objects, even if they were troublesome, it was fine!
His gaze darted around, searching for the pair of red-clothed rag dolls everywhere.
"There they are!"
Soon, he saw the pair of dolls holding hands, sitting quietly on the swing.
And at this moment, the ghosts around screamed and surrounded him once again.
"I'll hold off the little ghosts, you go catch that pair of dolls!"
Jing Jian arrived just in time, his Seven Star Magic Sword swirling with starlight as he tried his best to block the group of little ghosts.
"It's all up to you!"
Shaking off a few scattered little ghosts, Lu Fei quickly ran towards the swing set.
The pair of cloth dolls watched him silently, and as he ran over, their figures flickered and disappeared once again.
The next moment, they reappeared on top of the slide.
Lu Fei chased after them again but failed to even touch the hems of their clothes.
After several rounds of this.
Lu Fei found that these evil objects seemed particularly good at hiding.
No matter how fast he moved or how unexpected his attacks were, they always managed to evade precisely.
"Maybe dodging is their specialty! You can't be in a hurry if you want to catch them!"
Lu Fei took a deep breath and calmed down.
To deal with evil spirits, one must understand their origins and characteristics to apply the right remedies. But at this moment, he knew too little about these two dolls.
The pair of dolls sat at the highest point of the slide, their heads slightly tilted, coldly looking down at Lu Fei, as if mocking him silently.
Lu Fei approached the slide, lost in thought.
His eyes inadvertently glanced into a corner beneath the slide, where he found another little ghost hiding.
The little ghost was trembling, wearing a black and white striped T-shirt, huddling tightly, looking especially frightened, and not attacking Lu Fei or Jing Jian like the other ghosts.
"Isn't this the child of that woman from this afternoon?"
Only now did Lu Fei get a clear look at the child, and he was greatly surprised.
This child was a living soul!
A living soul and a ghost have an essential difference. A living soul indicates that the child is still alive, but has lost their soul.
Lu Fei looked at the doll above, then at the terrified child's soul, gritted his teeth, and walked down the slide.
Human life is of utmost importance.
Since he has encountered this, he cannot turn a blind eye to it.
But at the same time.
The pair of red-clothed dolls also moved.
They landed like ghosts behind the child's living soul, reaching out with their abnormally thin hands toward him.
