After passing between the two buildings, there was still a construction site behind them. Three more buildings stood in this area. Xiao Yu stopped and looked at these three buildings, turning to ask without looking back, "Where did Jiayi get injured"

Song Huali looked at the dark construction site and pointed towards the three buildings ahead, saying, "It's there, among those three buildings, near the one on the left." Just then a cold wind blew, causing Song Huali to shiver involuntarily as her heart raced.

Xiao Yu squinted his eyes and looked at the three buildings. Between them was an eerie presence, and their layout seemed very strange, but it was too dark for Xiao Yu to pinpoint exactly what was wrong from this distance; he would need to get closer to see better.

Xiao Yu started walking towards the buildings, with Song Huali and Zhou Ruoying following behind him. Three girls followed closely behind them to ensure their safety.

As they walked on, Xiao Yu suddenly stopped and looked around with a strange expression. The three girls at the back also stared around in shock.

"We've already passed this place once, but now we're back here again!" said one of the older girls among them, who seemed to be their leader.

The other two girls nodded and added, "That's right. We've been walking straight ahead without turning; how did we end up back at this spot"

Song Huali and Zhou Ruoying also looked shocked when they heard the girls speak. Looking up, they saw that even though the three girls had walked for five minutes, those three buildings still seemed as far away as ever.

Not only were Zhou Ruoying and Song Huali's hearts pounding with fear at this point; the three girls behind them also felt uneasy despite their battle-hardened appearances. As young women, they naturally harbored a certain timidity towards mysterious phenomena. Moreover, they had never encountered such strange circumstances before, especially since today’s mission itself seemed odd from the start.

Ghostly Disorientation—these three words surfaced in Xiao Yu's mind as he gazed at the scene before him. A peculiar expression appeared on his face; these three buildings were indeed suspicious.

"Xiao Yu... ... What's going on here" Zhou Ruying, trembling with fear, asked Xiao Yu in front of her.

The three girls watched everything before them. However, they didn't forget the task their military leader had given them before leaving: to protect him at all costs. Thus, their first reaction was to take out the guns hidden on their waists and form a triangular formation around Xiao Yu.

Although what they saw frightened the three girls, they never forgot their mission.

"Haha, there's no need to be so tense. This is just something called 'ghost wall'." Xiao Yu said with a light laugh.

'Dadada dadada' Hearing that they had encountered a ghost wall, Zhou Ruying and Song Hualing were even more frightened. Although the two of them held each other tightly, their teeth couldn't help but chatter loudly.

As if sensing everyone's fear, especially since although the three girls held guns in their hands, their arms holding the guns trembled slightly.

"A ghost wall isn't something to be afraid of. It can actually be considered a natural phenomenon, similar to mirages. The reason for the formation of a ghost wall is the dense concentration of Yin energy at night causing a refraction effect. Unlike mirages, when Yin energy becomes extremely concentrated, it slowly invades people's minds, making them experience hallucinations. These hallucinations combined with the Yin energy refractions form what we call a ghost wall." Xiao Yu explained.

After hearing Xiao Yu's explanation, although Zhou Ruying and others were still scared, they felt much better than before.

"Break it!" Xiao Yu took quick steps forward, back turned to the group. He held his brush tightly in one hand while silently commanding within himself; a golden light flashed briefly, disappearing into the darkness instantly.

Xiao Yu's actions to break through the ghost wall were very swift, so much so that by the time the others reacted, Xiao Yu had already put away his brush.

At this moment, they saw the surroundings quickly change and vanish. In an instant, it was as if space itself twisted; the original scenery vanished, only to instantly transform into a completely different scene as though switching scenes in a movie.

The scenery around Xiao Yu suddenly changed, no longer resembling what it was moments ago. After the transformation of their surroundings concluded, they found themselves standing at the entrance between three buildings.

Xiao Yu turned his head to gauge the distance from where he originally stood, calculating that based on their pace, the journey took roughly five minutes.

The sight of changing scenery not only left Zhou Ruoying and Song Hualing in awe but also caused the three girls who had remained expressionless since afternoon to look amazed and shocked. The recent events were beyond their comprehension.

Turning around, Xiao Yu looked at the three buildings, his eyebrows subtly furrowed. From afar, he sensed something off about the layout of these buildings, a feeling that only intensified now. Between the three structures, an eerie aura prevailed, thick with煞氣(yin and malevolent energy). Moreover, whenever this energy approached the exits of the buildings, it seemed to encounter some obstruction and return.

Additionally, the yin and malevolent energy outside appeared to be drawn towards the base trench between the three buildings, accumulating there.

"Why is it so cold" Zhou Ruoying shivered at the entrance of the three buildings and pulled her collar tighter around her neck.

“Yes, I feel a chill wind blowing by!” echoed Song Hualing as she too tightened her collar.

The girls merely frowned, silent, their hands clutching pistols with vigilant eyes scanning their surroundings. In reality, they felt cold because of the dense yin and malevolent energy here and the sensation caused by the external energies converging towards this spot.

However, to Zhou Ruoying, Song Hualing, and the three girls, everything about this place seemed strange and eerie. It was utterly silent, even the chirping of crickets was absent, leaving only the heavy breaths of the few individuals echoing in the stillness.

"Who’s there" One of the girls holding a gun pointed to a spot beside the base trench.

The sudden sound startled the others; their gazes instantly shifted towards this older girl who had spoken, her words hanging heavy in the air between them.

"Sis, what's wrong Is there someone over there" Another girl followed the gaze of the slightly older girl but saw nothing and couldn't help but say.

"I just saw a shadow flash past over there, but it vanished in an instant!" The slightly older girl said sternly, pointing her gun at that spot.

"No, sis, you must be mistaken. There's nothing there except for a hole," the girl replied after taking another careful look around.

"Yes! Sis, you must have been too nervous from the strange occurrences earlier and are experiencing hallucinations," another girl who had remained silent chimed in.

Hearing this, the slightly older girl began to doubt whether she really saw a person just now. Reluctantly, she put her gun away.

Only Xiao Yu knew that what the girl had seen was real; just moments ago, a ghost had floated out of the foundation trench and disappeared into the building to the west.

The malevolent energy around the foundation trench had gathered so much that it formed a thin mist, resembling a two-meter-wide white band enveloping the area without dispersing.

"Ah! There's a ghost, there’s a ghost!"

Suddenly, Song Huali, who was between the three girls, let out a blood-curdling scream as if her vocal cords were being torn apart. This terrifying shriek made everyone present feel chills.

"Sis, what's wrong Where’s the ghost" Zhou Ruoying, supporting a trembling Song Huali, exclaimed and asked urgently.

"T... There... There it is... I saw a woman with long hair floating around that hole," Song Huali said shakily, pointing to the foundation trench with her finger.ried a hint of threat which made them feel uneasy.Although they were half a rank lower than Wan Hongguang in terms of position and lacked some degree of authority compared to him, apart from the Secre...
