"Boom! Boom!"

  The four-square platform under the flagpole suddenly emitted a loud noise, and then began to shake violently, as if something was about to break out from it.

  Xiao Mo and Huang Liang were frightened out of their wits, only knowing to retreat backwards to dodge the falling flagpole. A moment later, the flagpole fell at their feet, and the two looked at it in terror, which made their hair stand on end even more.

  What kind of flagpole is this? It's clearly an arm! The sharp end at the top looks just like a curled-up claw!

  "This thing... is not even a flagpole!!!"

  Huang Liang was yelling crazily, but Xiao Mo couldn't hear him at all. He was still being pressed down by the terrifying shadow. The Four Square Altar shook even more violently, and it was already covered with cracks. Heart-pounding wails kept coming from within.

  It's almost out!

  "Run, let's run quickly!"

  Xiao Mo finally came back to his senses and shouted loudly at Huang Liang, who also sprinted towards the electronic door with all his might.

  Just as the two were about to rush forward, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them. It was him, Zhang You-shan, who had long since transformed into a fierce ghost. Their escape route was blocked.

  Xiao Xiao's heart sank and she stood there motionless. On the other hand, Huang Liang's body convulsed violently as he cried out to it repeatedly:

  "Tomoyama, aren't we friends? I never thought all of this was fake, even if... even if everything is fake, I swear that if we had met back then, we would still be the best of friends."

  "We will never watch you die with our eyes open, so please, spare us..."

  It remained unmoved, glaring with anger, its eyes filled with malice. Xiao Mo even suspected that the Zhang You Shan in front of him had lost his mind, otherwise, how could he be so cruel if he still had human thoughts.

  But unexpectedly, it bypassed them and went towards Sifangtai. It really let them off!

  "Thank you, Yuyama!"

  Huang Liang and Xiao Mo shouted in unison, then desperately rushed towards the electronic door.

  It seemed as if he hadn't heard their thanks, and just continued moving forward, slowly approaching the still shaking square platform.

  Xiao Mu felt his chest cavity was about to explode, the weakness transmitted from his body rose and fell in waves, he could only use his hands to harden against it, relying on the last bit of will to survive to barely support himself.

  The four-sided platform in the rear suddenly emitted a series of crisp cracking sounds, and then the entire platform collapsed. Next, a ghost with scattered hair and covered in blood emerged from it!

  With a sudden feeling, Xiao Mao and Huang Liang turned their heads back at this moment. This glance almost scared them to fall down. If people really have souls, then their souls must be trembling at this moment.

  "What's going on! Why is this thing under the four-sided platform! Isn't cutting off the 'flagpole' a way to lift this curse? How did things become like this!"

  Xiao Muo's heart was howling, he really felt that there was no hope left. Zhang You Shan had already let them go, and they had also cut off the flagpole, thinking that all this would come to an end, but who knew that a new twist would appear again.

  But one thing has become clear: the thing that emerged from the Four Square is the source of all this evil, it is the true origin of this curse. But even if they knew this, it would be of no use to their current situation, because it has already come out.

  The moon on their heads became even more eerie, and the moonlight it shed seemed to have turned blood red, constantly stimulating their senses.

  Under the pressure of danger, Xiao Mo and Huang Liang both burst out with amazing potential, and soon they arrived in front of the electronic gate. Without much effort, the two of them flipped over the gate, and from then on, they were considered to have escaped from school.

  In the process, Xiao Mo also turned his head to look back, and saw Zhang You Shan rushing towards that thing. For a period of time afterwards, those eerie and terrifying howls kept echoing in the playground.

  Xiao Mo and Huang Liang only took a fleeting glance at each other before the two of them continued on their desperate journey, they were extremely clear that the danger had not been lifted.

  They ran wildly through that quiet little road and arrived on the street. It was almost 2 o'clock in the morning, and there were hardly any cars on the street.

  Huang Liang and Xiao Mo's physical strength had reached its limit, both of them were panting heavily with their hands on their knees.

  "Now where are we going? As long as that thing still exists, it will definitely not let us go."

  Xiao Mo would certainly understand this, he glanced back nervously and then heard him respond:

  "Perhaps there is a safe place."

  "Really? Where?"

  "My home!"

  Earlier, he saw Zhang You Shan pounce on that thing and came up with the idea of escaping back to the Ghost Building with Huang Liang. That thing was definitely not something ordinary people could handle, but if it were a ghost, it would be different.

  In his mind, ghosts should have their own territory, just like that haunted house full of ghostly residents. If something else invades, will the ghostly residents fight back?

  This was what Xiao Mo had thought of, although it might not necessarily work, at least it was a plan, and it was much better than their aimless escape.

  Huang Liang didn't have any ideas to begin with, so as soon as Xiao Mo spoke up, he agreed. The two of them didn't dare to delay, and immediately hailed a taxi to head towards the haunted building.

  All the way, both of them were nervous and worried that the thing would suddenly appear in the car. After all, who hasn't seen a horror movie? They know how powerful those things are. Fortunately, their worries didn't come true, and the car drove smoothly to the building downstairs.

  But just as they stepped down from the car, a "Woo" sound came from behind, and then that thing stood there with blood all over its body.

  "Hurry up and go!"

  "Ah——!"

  Xiao Mo and Huang Liang had just rushed into the corridor when they were frightened by the dense figures in the corridor.

  This time, not only could Xiao Meng see them, but Huang Liang could also see them clearly. Everyone's face turned purple, and they were squeezed in the corridor like zombies, with some even being squeezed out of shape.

  It was Wang's mother who came first.

  Xiao Mo and Huang Liang sat on the ground, shivering with fear as they stared at them, while they too were staring back at them. All Xiao Mo could hear was his and Huang Liang's heavy breathing.

  This eye contact lasted for just a few seconds before they opened up a gap between them.

  "Thank you!"

  Xiao Mo Dao thanked him and quickly pulled Huang Liang to run up. After the two of them left, their original position became crowded again like before. At the same time, that terrifying figure had also arrived in front of them.

  Xiao Mo and Huang Liang locked the door tightly after entering, and even pushed a dining table against it in the living room. After doing all this, the two of them collapsed to the ground with a sigh of relief.

  Xiao Mo's condition was much worse, his physical strength far inferior to Huang Liang's. At this moment, he only felt dizzy and nauseous, as if the sky was spinning and the earth was sinking. Huang Liang, on the other hand, was much better off, still having the energy to ask him:

  "Those must be ghosts or something. Can they stop that thing? What if that thing comes up..."

  Xiao Mo waved his hand and interrupted, saying:

  "Let's just go with fate..."
