Tang Ning was stunned.
His face was wet with tears, and the dark red powder was dissolved by the tears, which reminded people of the red plum blossoms splashing on the snow-white rice paper.
The terrifying experience was still vivid in her mind. Her body was trembling slightly as she was immersed in the afterglow of fear. Tears fell from her chin into her neck, leaving sparkling tear marks everywhere. She was like a little mermaid who was tricked ashore and wanted to find a safe haven, but she didn't know that there were covetous and greedy eyes everywhere.
Now is all this true or false
Has he escaped from the poison? Is he in his own body now? Or is he still a spirit away from his body
His slender fingers grasped the corner of his clothes, and his wet and evasive eyes fell on everyone in the room. The continuous fear had just left not long ago, and it was like a storm that destroyed his psychological defenses.
Tang Ningfa didn't believe anyone in the room. He tried hard to think with his almost dull brain.
If these people were ghosts, how could they scare me
"I'm not a ghost." Du Feng spread his hands towards Tang Ning, making a gesture of surrender. He showed the empty bottle in his hand to Tang Ning: "This is the 'medicine' that can temporarily suppress the poison."
Lin Yun, who was standing nearby, also said quickly, "Tangning, I don't know if what you just saw was an illusion. I am real now."
Chen Yan squatted on the ground. It was hard for him to take his eyes off Tangning. Tangning was someone he wanted to hug and comfort. "Are you okay?"
Zeng Yishuang said worriedly, "We were chasing you just now, but you suddenly ran away."
Tangning's mind was in a daze, he couldn't find any thoughts. He put his hand with the ring on it to his face, the diamond ring left a small red mark on his face. Tangning thought seriously -
If they have any plans for me.
Then it should be this ring. No matter what they do, I will not hand over this ring.
That fragile heart was filled with resolute courage and lonely bravery. He had thought and done so before, but a bitter feeling of grievance rolled up in his heart, which instantly defeated that kind of bravery and recklessness.
He was like a homeless child, desperately hugging the only thing he could hold, thinking with grievance, why do you treat me like this? This is all I have.
The strong feeling of helplessness and confusion hit him. He wanted to hold back his tears, but when he put his face against the ring, he couldn't help but hunch his shoulders.
"There's something wrong with the ring you're wearing. It gives me the same feeling as Gengxi's bracelet." Du Feng said calmly, "I suspect it can enhance the power of your Gu. The longer you wear it, the stronger it becomes. That's why the Gu was suddenly activated just now. I suggest you take this ring off now—"
Tang Ning shook his head vigorously. He looked like he was trying hard to hold back his tears. His red eyes looked at Du Feng cautiously, his lips tightly pursed. No one would be willing to say no to Tang Ning when he looked like this.
At least Du Fengfa did it.
"But I'm here with you. Even if you don't take it off, I will protect you." Du Feng said slowly.
Tang Ning looked at Du Feng quietly. He felt that Du Feng seemed to be talking.
Tang Ning looked at the others and they all seemed to be alive.
Tang Ning checked several times because it was too painful to lie on the ground. Tang Ning wanted to get up. Du Feng, Lin Yun and Chen Yan reached out their hands. Tang Ning wiped his tears with the back of his hand and slowly got up by himself. After wiping his tears, except for his eyes and nose which were still red, he looked calm again.
Crying was often a way for Tang Ning to vent his emotions. After crying, he felt much better. The only downside was that he cried too much and was a little embarrassed to face everyone.
Everyone was looking at Tangning.
Tang Ning took out his cell phone and looked at the signal. It showed full signal. He remembered that during the funeral scene, the signal was also full. It was a trick played by the ghosts to trick everyone.
Which one is true or false? Is it true that Du Feng's ring enhances the power of the Gu, making the power of the Gu suddenly increase? If so, why did Geng Xi do this
Were the things he experienced in the elevator fake, a dream fabricated by Hai Gu? If so, then Geng Xi did protect him, so why did Geng Xi use this ring to enhance Hai Gu's power
It's so complicated, I can't understand it at all.
Tangning stretched out her hand and looked blankly at the diamond ring on her hand.
Bright and dazzling light.
Is this the light that saves him, or the last glimmer of light he can see before being pushed into darkness
"Tangning, didn't you just want to show me something?" Lin Yun asked tentatively.
Tangning responded, but due to the damage to his throat, he could only make a soft "hmm" sound from his nose.
Now that the players and Du Feng were all there, Tang Ning showed everyone the strange text message she had received.
The first one is not to trust Gengxi and throw away his ring.
After Geng Xi left, the ghost kept chasing Tang Ning, asking him to throw away the ring, but it seemed as if it was afraid of the ring and didn't dare to get close to him.
Tang Ning originally thought that this ring was to protect him, but after Du Feng used the ring to enhance the power of the poison, Tang Ning became uncertain.
If the ring increases the power of the poison, does that mean the owner of the message has good intentions? But why are the ghosts afraid of the ring
Tangning clicked on the audio file to play this question to Du Feng. His fingers were tense as he held the phone, and his knuckles were white. Tangning himself might not have realized this, but Du Feng could see Tangning's vigilance clearly.
—He is doubting me.
Du Feng slowly moved closer to Tang Ning, and Tang Ning's neck became even more tense. The lines of her shoulders and neck were so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her.
His handsome face lowered slightly, as if he was about to bury his head in Tang Ning's neck. Facing Tang Ning's frightened gaze, Du Feng restrained himself.
Stopping at a palm-sized distance away, his nostrils twitched as he took a deep sniff of Tang Ning's scent.
As the power of the Gu increased, Du Feng could detect a stronger scent from Tang Ning. The previously faint scent that was barely detectable now had a clue: "Maybe this is related to the other Gu you have."
"When you wear the ring, the power of the Gu becomes stronger, and it smells weird."
"All the Gu I raise are afraid of it." Du Feng frowned, with deep fear in his eyes.
Tangning couldn't help but get restless. He typed carefully and asked, "Do you know what kind of Gu this is?"
Du Feng shook his head.
Tang Ning also sniffed his own scent, but he still couldn't smell anything.
Now he already knows that there are two kinds of Gu, one is the harmful Gu, one is the unknown Gu that Du Feng raises and that ghosts are afraid of, and there is another kind of Gu that is hidden the deepest, and even Du Feng can't smell it.
According to Du Feng's words, he could justify himself. Tang Ning believed Du Feng's words for the time being and clicked on the second text message sent from the strange number.
The text message only has a link.
Tang Ning didn't dare to order by herself, so she asked Du Feng to help her order.
The link led to a video. Tang Ning subconsciously leaned back slightly, wanting to get away from the phone that was playing the video.
The video was not the gloomy scene Tang Ning had imagined. It was a daytime scene with bright sunshine and lush vegetation.
Tang Ning did not let his guard down. He covered his face with his hands and only dared to watch the video through his fingers, fearing that a ghost face would suddenly pop up in the next second.
Although the other players were not as exaggerated as Tang Ning, everyone's faces were all filled with the same look of alertness.
The video seems to be taken on a crowded street, with people coming and going. Some are clapping, some are saying "OK", it's a mess.
The person recording the video had an unsteady hand and the picture was shaking constantly. Tang Ning felt a little dizzy and felt like she was watching from a candid camera's perspective because the person recording the video didn't dare to shoot someone else's face.
Do you want to record this video
Tang Ning was a little confused.
Suddenly, the camera focused on the back of a man carrying a guitar. The man was wearing a white shirt and walking under the light spots like sunshine, like a scene from some cartoon.
The man walks towards a street full of flowers, and the camera keeps moving closer.
Tang Ning could clearly see the man in the white shirt handing a stack of cash from his cap to the stall owner, and then he picked up an armful of flowers.
This scene looks strangely familiar.
This wasn't something Tangning had seen before, but something he had heard someone describe.
"Someone happened to be selling flowers on the road that day, and I bought all the flowers with the cash tipped by passersby."
The camera kept zooming in, focusing on the white cuffs. On the wrist hung a thin plain bracelet, spotless in the sunlight.
If the camera hadn't magnified the image to this extent, it would be difficult for ordinary people to see a black bug suddenly crawling out from the cuffs.
It was a tiny black insect with a cicada-like body, a little fuzzy, a raised part on the tail, and a white sunken part. It had a pair of flexible antennae, each with a fork, and a total of ten legs, which allowed it to crawl quickly, and it darted into the flowers in a flash.
Tangning was stunned in front of the video.
He saw the pair of slender hands holding a bouquet of flowers, and the camera kept moving backwards, as if the person filming the video was worried that he would be discovered, which finally allowed the person in the video to reveal his entire body.
In the video, Gengxi was holding flowers and walking towards a young man. The young man had an extremely handsome face. He stood politely on the side of the road, looking at Gengxi with a little curiosity.
Gengxi wanted to hand him the flowers, but the young man kept waving his hands, and seemed to have no interest in the flowers. He even showed a distressed look towards Gengxi who insisted on giving him the flowers.
That is a soft and distant attitude.
Until a bouquet of flowers suddenly touched the young man. The young man, who had been shaking his head, was stunned for a moment and stood there in a daze.
The sun is shining, the light is bright, and the air is filled with the fragrance of flowers.
The two people looked at each other across the fragrant flowers, and there was the same love in their eyes.
—"Love comes so suddenly. Although it was the first time I met Gengxi, I already fell deeply in love with him and couldn't extricate myself."
Tang Ning suddenly remembered the words in the memo again. He raised his head in a daze and looked at Du Feng who was standing beside him.
Du Feng suddenly said: "The first scent is the smell of love poison!"
