Chapter 255 The hand behind the scenes
The way ahead was blocked, and the pursuers kept approaching, and a trace of cold sweat flowed from my forehead.

I gritted my teeth, resisted the tingling pain all over my body, knocked away the white paper lantern with my shoulder, and ran forward.

A burst of extremely piercing laughter came from behind.

My eyes blurred, and the white paper lantern chased after me. The face painted on the lantern smiled sinisterly, opened its mouth, and spit out a green flame.

The moment the miserable green flame flew out, a sinister aura enveloped the surroundings.

My eyelids twitched, and there was a warning signal in my heart, so I quickly turned to avoid it, but the green flame was like a maggot attached to the bone, and it was chasing after me.

I was also carrying a big bag, and the white gray guy in it had trouble moving, and I was almost possessed by the green flames several times.

"Hurry up, give me your pocket." Ghost Detective Xu gritted his teeth and took the pocket.

The green flame, taking advantage of my distraction, accelerated suddenly and melted into the center of my eyebrows.

The center of my eyebrows felt like being shot by an arrow, and the pain was excruciating. The foreground in front of my eyes suddenly turned green, and the surroundings were dark green.

The face on the opposite lantern was pale green, with an extremely sinister smile.

I cried out in pain, crouched on the ground with my head in my arms, trembling all over, feeling that my soul was being eaten away by the green flame that possessed me bit by bit.

At a critical moment, the golden soul flame in the Palace of Fate between the Eyebrows changed.

The golden soul flame flashed and extinguished, and moved aside in an instant, devouring the green flame that melted into the center of the eyebrows.

As if taking a tonic, the golden soul flame soared a bit, and even the four runes that were constantly rotating around the golden soul flame lit up again.

The white paper lantern on the opposite side uttered a shriek and shattered into pieces with a "bang".

On the other side of the alley, Ghost Detective Xu let out a suppressed cry of pain. I turned around suddenly and saw four paper figurines who were chasing him around the wall.

I sensed the four golden runes in the Palace of Fate, and my heart moved, I pointed at the four paper figurines, and said: Soul flies away!
The four paper figurines suddenly burst into flames from inside to outside. After a while, they turned into a pool of ashes and fell to the ground.

I was overjoyed, the first time I used the mantra of my life against the enemy, the effect was unexpectedly powerful, but after using the ability, the four golden runes quickly dimmed.

"Don't be dazed, let's go!" I rushed over and pushed Ghost Tan Xu, and the two of them ran forward quickly carrying the cloth bag.

The alley was pitch-black in front of it, and intermittent bleak cries could be heard, and a few red paper lanterns floated over from the opposite side.

My scalp tightened, and judging from the breath alone, I knew that these red paper lanterns were more difficult to deal with than white lanterns.

The cries of the ghosts inside the lantern became louder and louder, and dense strands of hair flew out of the red paper lanterns and entwined towards us.

Anxiety flashed in my eyes. The mantra of my life cannot be used again in a short period of time, and there is no time to cast the ground fire mark.

The strands of hair flying from the opposite side are getting closer and covering the sky, blocking all our dodging space.

"What should I do, or leave this guy behind?" Ghost Detective Xu pointed to the cloth pocket and asked anxiously.

Hesitation flashed in my eyes, even if we left Pashmina, we might not be able to escape those entanglements of hair.

The weird hair was pressing on every step, Ghost Detective Xu and I staggered back.

A burst of crisp laughter sounded from the side, which sounded very familiar.

I looked sideways, and through the dim moonlight, I saw a cute little loli sitting on the wall, swinging her little feet.

Little Lolita made a face at us, stuck out her tongue, pointed at the red lanterns, and said crisply, "Bastards! Bad guys! They're all bad guys!"

When little loli clicked on the lantern, the lantern would explode after a few crisp "bad guys", and the red paper lanterns would explode one after another after a few clear "bad guys".

I was dumbfounded, looking at the scene in front of me, I never expected that the seemingly cute little loli was so powerful.

Little Lolita proudly stood on the top of the wall, with her hands on her hips and her head slightly raised, as if she was waiting for someone's compliment.

I opened my mouth, and was about to praise the little Lolita a few words, when I let out a cold snort, which sounded in the darkness.

With the sound of a cold snort, a few colorful lanterns floated in midair, and in the middle of those colorful lanterns was a colorful lantern.

An invisible pressure rushed towards his face, and the surrounding air seemed to have become much thicker.

"Oh, I can't fight, I have to run away." Little Lolita exclaimed, and her figure disappeared with a "swish".

I swallowed the compliments that came to my lips, and stared at the empty wall in astonishment, I could only give a wry smile.

Looking at the colorful lanterns floating in the air, I feel a little desperate. We can't even deal with those low-level red paper lanterns, let alone these more powerful colored lanterns.

The colorful lanterns floated over and surrounded us, and the colorful lantern in the middle was suspended above our heads.

I felt myself being imprisoned by an invisible force, unable to move.

"It's over, I actually fell on a group of lanterns." Ghost Detective Xu smiled wryly.

I gritted my teeth, unwillingness flashed in my eyes, but my body was imprisoned, and I couldn't do any resistance at all.

A melodious sound of the piano came from the darkness. The sound of the piano was high and low, erratic.

The sound of the piano seems to have a strange magic power, the power that imprisoned us, but when the sound of the piano sounded, it actually loosened.

I winked at Ghost Detective Xu, and while I was able to move, I hurriedly carried the cloth bag and rushed out of the encirclement.

In the darkness, there was another cold snort.

Those colorful lanterns lit up, and there seemed to be neon light growing inside the lanterns.

The last time I was in that mansion, I saw the power of the neon light with my own eyes, and I was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on my forehead.

The rhythm of the melodious piano sound turned into a passion, and a trace of cracks appeared on the colorful lanterns.

At this time, the colorful lanterns suspended on the top sprayed out several neon lights to protect the colorful lanterns below.

The rhythm of the piano sound is getting faster and faster, and an invisible contest is unfolding around us.

Ghost Detective Xu and I carried our cloth bags, and were about to seize the opportunity to escape, when a figure appeared in front of the alley, almost startling me.

The figure was wearing a mask, walking towards this side step by step.

"Put down Pashmina, live, or die!" The masked figure seemed to have deliberately changed his voice, making his voice hoarse.

I frowned, naturally I wouldn't take the other person's words seriously, and with cautious eyes, I looked up and down the opposite figure.

The eyes behind the mask flashed with anger, his shoulders moved, and his arms were raised, as if he was about to make a move.

The passionate sound of the piano, from far to near, a woman in a white dress, like a fairy in the painting, appeared on the roof beside her.

The woman in white was sitting cross-legged, with a guzheng on her lap, ten green fingers dancing quickly, plucking the strings.

I looked at the familiar figure, complexion flashed in my eyes, I knew that the other person was very powerful, but her ability still exceeded my estimation.

But thinking about it carefully, even the little girl who is the younger sister is so powerful, and it is normal for the older sister to be even more powerful.

The masked figure, with fear flashing in his eyes, turned around slowly, raised his neck, and stared at the eldest lady on the roof.

"It seems that you must take care of this business?" The masked man asked hoarsely.

"You calculated me first, don't think that I don't know what kind of plan you have." The eldest lady sneered, and the sound of the piano became more and more urgent.

One after another, there was a slight explosion sound behind me. I turned around suddenly and saw those colorful lanterns, all of which exploded.

The figure of the masked man trembled imperceptibly, and suddenly stretched out his hand to point at me.

"Be careful!" The eldest lady reminded in a hurried tone.

An extremely dangerous feeling rose in my heart, without hesitation, I subconsciously lifted the cloth bag and blocked it in front of me.

An invisible breath hit the cloth bag, and the white gray man in it let out a scream before dying, and the cloth bag shriveled up quickly.

I carried the empty cloth bag, feeling cool in my heart, the ability of that masked man was a bit beyond my imagination.

The eldest lady uttered an angry cold snort, waved her arms, and plucked the strings rapidly, the passionate sound of the piano became fierce.

An invisible chill filled the surroundings, and the temperature dropped a bit.

The masked man let out a muffled grunt, as if he was hurt, hesitated for a moment, then retreated violently, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

After the masked guest left, the sound of the piano also stopped instantly, filled with two powerful auras around, and suddenly disappeared.

"Oh my god, I almost couldn't hold it anymore!" Ghost Detective Xu said weakly, before he collapsed on the ground weakly.

I am stronger than Ghost Detective Xu, but my hands and feet are also weak. Seeing the face of the eldest lady, she is a little pale. It seems that this invisible contest is not as easy as it appears on the surface.

I said a word, pointed to the empty cloth bag, and asked what to do.

The eldest lady was silent for a moment, stood up holding the guzheng, and said that she would go back first, she knew who was behind the scenes.

I stretched out my hand to support Ghost Tan Xu, resisting my exhaustion, and walked towards the other side of the alley.

The eldest lady seemed to be weightless, holding the guzheng in her arms, and disappeared into the night lightly.

"Ah, have you guys finished?" A crisp voice came from the courtyard wall.

I raised my head, and saw little Lolita sitting on the wall, her tender little feet were swinging back and forth, with two small dimples on her face when she smiled.

I rubbed my nose with a wry smile, and found that this little girl is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Returning to the eldest lady's house again, we sat in a spacious hall, the little loli hugged her sister's arm, and looked at us with a smile.

I hesitated for a moment, and asked if that masked man was the one who secretly harmed us.

The answer given by the eldest lady surprised me a bit. She said that it was a paper puppet, and the real body of the other party was not in the underworld at all.

I was startled, and asked, what happened.

The eldest lady did not speak, but took out the pen and paper, and began to draw. A lifelike portrait appeared on the white paper.

"Master Wang!" I blurted out with shock in my eyes, then stared at the eldest lady, waiting for the other party to explain.
