Death Sutra - Chapter8

Hearing the noise, the fatty immediately stood up and wanted to head upstairs without saying anything.

I quickly pulled him back and said softly, "Fatty, don't be rash. Your dad suffered a loss yesterday, so he definitely came prepared today. Also, that old man He is also a capable person. That shout just now might mean that they've already killed the thing inside.

What's more, even if something really happened, your dad can't even take care of it, so what's the point of us rushing in?

Let's go take a look first. "

I tried my best to persuade the fatty to come down, and the two of us sneaked up to the fourth floor.

At this time, the principal and the headteacher were standing outside. They were probably startled by the sharp scream just now. The two of them were standing in front of the door, staring at the dormitory door, and seemed to be hesitating whether or not to rush in.

The fatty and I hid at the stairs, and decided that if there was still no movement inside in three minutes, we would rush in.

In the end, after just over a minute, the dormitory door suddenly opened, but there was no one at the door. It was as if something invisible had slammed into it. The doorknob hit the wall and made a loud "dong" sound.

Then, a gust of wind blew out from the door. This gust of wind was extremely strong, I could even hear the rapid whistling sound.

The principal and the headteacher were already on tenterhooks at the door, this sudden situation caused them to fall on their butts. I don't know if they fell because of the wind, or because they were scared.

Seeing this, the fatty and I prepared to rush over, but then we heard old man He's shout. "Don't come in, close the door!"

The principal and the headteacher crawled up from the ground in shock. The headteacher was younger, so he reacted faster. He reached into the dormitory and was about to pull the door shut.

The dormitory door was the type that was pushed inwards. When the headteacher pulled the door, half of his body was inside the dormitory, but after he grabbed the door handle, he suddenly stopped moving.

The principal also noticed that something was wrong, and pulled the headteacher's clothes to pull him out. However, the headteacher was fat, and the principal was a fifty or sixty year old man, so he couldn't move him at all.

I remembered what happened after I saw the strange face in the dormitory yesterday. The headteacher was probably also enchanted by the face.

There was no way to hide, so I called the fatty and ran over.

When we arrived at the entrance, the two of us, along with the principal, finally managed to pull the teaching director out.

After rescuing him, the door to the dormitory was still open. The wind inside was blowing outside, and it was pitch black. Looking in from the outside, nothing could be seen.

Then, we heard Old He's voice urging us to close the door. His voice sounded hurried. I guessed he had encountered something troublesome in there. He didn't have time to deal with us.

The little fatty stood up and was about to close the door. I remembered the jade bracelet on my neck. I gritted my teeth and dashed forward. I didn't dare to look inside, so I closed my eyes and reached for the door handle. I pulled hard and closed the door.

To prevent the door from opening again, I deliberately buckled the pouch on the door. I wanted to lock it, but I was afraid that something would happen to the fatty's father, so I didn't lock it.

After closing the door, the three of us heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at the Dean.

He lay on the ground, but he did not pass out. His eyes were wide open, and his body was motionless, as if his soul had been stolen. The principal called out to him for a long time, but he did not respond.

"Students, Director Hu … What happened to him?"

The principal sounded distressed. It seemed he had forgotten to ask why we had come back. Instead, he asked for our advice.

Although I also experienced something like this yesterday, I couldn't tell the reason. Although the fatty was a bit stronger than me, he clearly didn't know what happened either. He could only reply to the principal, "When my dad and the others come out, Director Hu should be fine."

The principal was panicking, but after listening to the fatty, he reacted. He nodded and asked me and the fatty to help him sit down by the railing.

After settling Director Hu down, I quietly took the jade bracelet off my neck and held it in my hand. I wanted to take the chance when the fatty and the principal weren't paying attention. I wanted to put the jade bracelet on Director Hu's body to see if I could wake him up.

However, right at this moment, a cold wind blew around us, and the light around us dimmed.

It was morning, and the light was bright. We could feel the sudden change in the dark corridor. The principal lifted his head and looked around. His voice trembled. "What's going on?

The door isn't open … What happened? "

After the principal asked, the fatty and I didn't answer him. We just looked at the entrance of the corridor.

We didn't know when a shadow had appeared there … No, it wasn't a shadow. It was just a shadow. Under the dim light of the corridor, it looked very dim. It floated and walked toward us.

The fatty and I recognized it at first glance. It was Guo Mingming. His head was bald, and his eyes and nose were blurry. His face was dull, and he looked unreal.

Looking at the 'Guo Mingming' in front of me, I recalled the red shadow I had seen for the first time. However, this' Guo Mingming 'was different from the red shadow. The red shadow looked solid, but this' Guo Mingming 'was like a cluster of gray mist. He was so fleeting that it looked like he would vanish in the next second.

As' Guo Mingming 'appeared, the cold wind blew stronger. I felt as if something was stuck in my throat. I stood there, unable to say a word.

My reaction wasn't bad. After all, I had seen the red shadow before.

It was the first time the principal had encountered such a thing. He was standing next to the dean, but now, he leaned against the railing and slid to the ground. He pointed at 'Guo Mingming.' His eyes were wide open, and his mouth was wide open. However, he could only make noises. He couldn't say a word.

Right at this moment, the dormitory door that I had just closed suddenly squeaked. It seemed that someone was trying to pull the door. The lock on the door was stuck, and it made a sharp grinding sound.

Before I could react, the fatty ran toward the door. While running, he shouted, "That's Guo Mingming's soul. Third Baby, come and help me hold the door. We can't let Guo Mingming's soul get in!"

The fatty had told me that the evil face in the dormitory would eat Guo Mingming's three souls. Then, it would become a real carnivorous baby.

After hearing the fatty's shout, I dashed forward. When I reached the door, the fatty had already grabbed the door handle.

I hurried to remove the lock on the handle and tried to lock it into the keyhole. However, the door was shaking violently. I tried a few times, but I couldn't lock it. In the end, I gave up and grabbed the door handle. Together with the fatty, we pulled the door.

When we pulled the door, 'Guo Mingming' didn't stop walking. He walked step by step along the corridor. At this moment, he was standing next to us.

To be honest, because of the red shadow, I wasn't afraid of the evil face in the dormitory. However, when I saw Guo Mingming in the mist, I was scared. A few days ago, I had seen Guo Mingming in the flesh, but now, I saw his soul. This feeling of fear was really strong.

'Guo Mingming' didn't stop. He almost bumped into me and the fatty. I couldn't help but loosen my grip on the door handle. I moved backward toward the door.

Right at this moment, a huge force that was much stronger than before came from the door. With a "ka ba" sound, the iron door pouch fell off from the wooden door. The dormitory's door was violently pulled open, and even the fatty and I were dragged along as we fell onto the floor inside the dormitory.

When the door opened, the hazy 'Guo Mingming' walked in. Hissing noises came from inside the dormitory.

I didn't care about Guo Mingming's soul and lifted my head to look.

The fatty's father was sitting cross-legged on the ground not far from us. In front of him was a row of small coffins. They were the same as the one I had seen before. They were all bright red.

In his hand, he was holding a handful of white powder and throwing it into the dormitory.

Further away from us was Old He. He was walking in strange steps. His left hand was making hand seals, while his right hand was holding something that looked like a peach wood sword. He was chanting something.

Old He didn't talk when he saw Guo Mingming's soul following us. However, his chanting became faster and faster.

Between Old He and the fatty's father was a naked, blood-red baby. Its face was the same as the fluorescent green face I had seen yesterday. It was twisted and ferocious, with two vertical eyes.

What was different was that the mouth that had previously revealed an evil smile was now wide open, revealing two rows of cold, sharp teeth that were extremely frightening.

The hissing noises I had heard earlier came from its mouth.

This blood baby should be the flesh-eating baby that the fatty had told me about. Its eyes gazed at the 'Guo Mingming' who had just walked in. Then, it dashed forward. However, when it reached the row of coffins in front of the fatty's father, it seemed to bump into something and bounced back.

But soon, it dashed toward us again.

The powder in the fatty's father's hand fell on the blood baby. It quickly turned into a puddle of dark red liquid that flowed to the ground. Old He was holding something that looked like a peach wood sword. Every time he swung it, the blood baby was slapped to the ground. The dark liquid splashed from its body.
