Being too ferocious because of caution

Chapter 437 "2188 Building" Broken Knife, Careless Man

The footsteps hit Zhao Yi's chest like a note urging his life. Without thinking, he ran to the other side of the waste collection building and fled!

As the owner of the footsteps came to the fourth floor, the notebook given by Xu Shengzhi on Zhao Yi's chest immediately began to heat up!

At the back, it even made Zhao Yi feel scalding hot!

The thing behind him... is definitely not an ordinary ghost!

Zhao Yi quickly ran to the stairs, and the candle in his hand flickered without wind, as if there was an invisible ghost thing lying behind Zhao Yi, blowing at the red candle in Zhao Yi's hand!

Under the influence of the owner of the footsteps behind him, Zhao Yi's right hand began to itch, and suddenly there was a sharp pain. Zhao Yi looked at it with the candle, and it turned out to be the black gas in his hand before, which actually wanted to break out of the body at this time!

Zhao Yi clearly remembered that according to the previous time rules, he had at least three hours before the black gas would show abnormality!

Obviously, the black air he had touched from the security guards in the company... had something to do with the owner of the footsteps behind him!

As a last resort, Zhao Yi placed the candle in the palm of his hand and burned it, suppressing the black air that was trying to break out of his palm!

This time, a lot of the candle's energy was consumed. Originally, this new candle could be used three times, but now it has only been used once, and the blue-purple stamen of the candle has returned to its normal color!

Zhao Yi ran to the entrance of the corridor, but found that a small black shadow rushed out of a house near the entrance of the corridor. It passed by Zhao Yi with a black thing in its mouth and fled upstairs in a panic!

With the flickering candlelight, Zhao Yi barely recognized the fast-running black shadow, which was the ghost baby who had just kicked the human head as a ball!

Zhao Yi was originally going to flee downstairs, but after seeing the ghost baby, he suddenly gave up his idea and followed the ghost baby!

One in front and one behind, Zhao Yi also went upstairs, and continued to follow the ghost baby to the sixth floor!

The footsteps behind him still maintained their own rhythm, but the speed of movement was not slow at all, and they were even gradually closing the distance with Zhao Yi!

Zhao Yi's mind moved slightly, and he took out another intact red candle from his body, lit it and placed it on the stairs!

Judging from the previous performance of the ghost baby being afraid of the candle in Zhao Yi's hand, this kind of candle bought from the supermarket does have a certain degree of restraining effect on ghosts. Putting it on the opponent's must-pass path may slow down the opponent's speed!

However...

When Zhao Yi stepped onto the sixth floor, he only heard the footsteps behind him... stopped for a moment.

Only for a moment!

A strong sense of crisis filled Zhao Yi's heart. He quickly went to the sixth floor and saw a staircase leading to the rooftop in the middle corridor!

The iron gate was wide open, and the ghost baby held the black thing in his mouth and ran towards the rooftop upstairs, but who knew that its umbilical cord suddenly got hung on the old lock on the iron gate, and it couldn't get rid of it no matter how hard it struggled!

The ghost baby was so anxious that he kept screaming, opened his bloody mouth, and bit the lock frantically, but he couldn't bite it at all!

Seeing a giant tall figure appearing at the entrance of the corridor on the sixth floor, he let out a hysterical howl, which made Zhao Yi's scalp numb and his eyes dizzy!

"If you don't want to die, shut up!"

Zhao Yi shouted.

The ghost baby was stunned by him, and stopped crying for a while, staring at Zhao Yi who was running towards him frantically and the terrifying black shadow chasing him behind him.

Zhao Yi came to the iron gate, gave the ghost baby a big slap in the face, and fanned it away from the iron gate. Then he used a candle to illuminate, untied the umbilical cord of the ghost baby hanging on the iron gate lock, and the man and the ghost ran quickly towards the rooftop!

Bang!

Not long after they went upstairs, there was a huge collision sound at the iron gate!

The whole building was shocked!

Standing on the sixteenth step of the stairs, Zhao Yi could only see the feet of the black shadow.

The worn leather shoes were the work shoes issued by the company, and they were almost the same as the ones Zhao Yi was wearing.

The ghost baby curled up beside Zhao Yi, holding a black thing and shivering. Its fear of the guy outside had reached its extreme. It dared not move even though it was several meters away!

After a long time, the burly black shadow outside seemed to lose interest in Zhao Yi and the ghost baby, and turned away.

After it left, the ghost baby chirped at Zhao Yi, as if to thank Zhao Yi for saving his life.

Then it took Zhao Yi to the rooftop of the building.

The stars and the moon were bright, and the soft light was projected on this platform covered with garbage. Zhao Yi finally saw clearly what the black ball in the ghost's mouth was...

It was a woman with a shriveled body, almost skin and bones!

There was an umbilical cord coming out of the woman's lower body, right on the ghost baby's belly. Just by observing the slight rise and fall of the woman's chest, Zhao Yi could conclude that the woman was still alive.

Yes...

After giving birth to the ghost baby, the woman was still alive!

Moreover, looking at her physical condition, if it were any normal person, she would have died long ago.

Her survival was obviously inseparable from the ghost baby.

However, even so, the woman was completely unable to move or speak. At this moment, she was no different from a vegetative person, except that the ghost baby was unwilling to let her die.

Standing on the rooftop and feeling the cold wind, Zhao Yi asked the ghost baby about the waste collection building, but the ghost baby couldn't speak clearly, with a bloody mouth that smelled fishy and couldn't utter a word.

As a last resort, Zhao Yi could only settle for the second best and let the ghost baby take him to find the coffee cup.

The ghost baby seemed to be very familiar with the coffee cup.

After a confusing exchange between the two, Zhao Yi finally understood what the ghost baby meant.

He stayed on the sixth floor and helped it guard the iron door, and it went to help Zhao Yi get the coffee cup back. The ghost baby said that it knew the location of the coffee cup and was very familiar with it.

Zhao Yi agreed, and they carefully went down to the corridor. The ghost baby asked Zhao Yi to stay behind the iron door, and it ran all the way with its mother in its mouth, and soon disappeared at the end of the dark corridor...

About five minutes later.

The notebook on Zhao Yi's chest suddenly became hot!

He went down to the iron door and looked into the distance.

Sure enough, the ghost baby ran back with its mother in its mouth, out of breath, and almost fell on the road!

Behind it, the terrifying burly black shadow appeared again!

"Hurry up!"

Zhao Yi shouted and opened the door.

The ghost baby took two steps at a time and jumped into the iron gate. The next moment Zhao Yi locked the iron gate directly!

Bang!

The terrifying burly black shadow came in front of Zhao Yi and punched the iron gate hard!

Boom!

The whole building shook slightly.

Unfortunately, the iron gate seemed to be protected by a mysterious power, and it withstood this punch of unknown strength!

Chi——

Zhao Yi struck a match, lit a candle, and put it in front of him to take a look.

The burly and terrifying black shadow outside the iron gate immediately revealed its true appearance.

It was... a pale man.

His chest was bloody and there was a big hole, and the heart inside was missing.

In his hand... he was holding a rusty broken knife!
