Chapter 59: The Man Who Was Seen Directly by God
Ning Zhe leaned over to look at the phone in Bai Zhi's hand. The screen showed her chat interface with a friend named "Mom".
The last message was sent by Bai Zhi at 17:25 in the afternoon, telling Feng Yusu that Ning Zhe had woken up and asking her when she would come over.
Feng Yushu replied to this message a few seconds ago, and the reply was:
[Is Ningzhe next to you? ]
[Find a place to hide, don't go out, don't expose yourself! ]
Don't trust anyone except him.
【They all want to kill you! 】
Feng Yusu sent four messages in succession. Bai Zhi quickly read them and replied, asking her where she was and what the situation was like.
Waited a few minutes, no response.
"Not replying to the message again..." Bai Zhi frowned.
"Maybe she also encountered a ghost and is busy running for her life." Ning Zhe said: "And according to her description, the ghost my aunt encountered seems to be the same as the one staring at us."
Bai Zhi also nodded: "Mom should be in the local branch of Qinzhou Medical College now, which is more than 20 kilometers away from Gubei Town."
Ning Zhe and Bai Zhi were at a gas station less than 5 kilometers away from Gubei Town. They were nearly 20 kilometers apart, but they seemed to have encountered the influence of the same ghost.
Is it true that the influence range of this ghost is so wide, or are there two identical ghosts in the world?
Ning Zhe is more inclined to the former because [God is everywhere].
For example, the snake god Zhaoyou, who can bring good luck and avoid disaster, has an influence that can radiate to the entire Hejia Village. Comparing the two, Ning Zhe felt that he more or less understood what Bai Zhi said before: God is a ghost in a macroscopic form.
"Let's focus on the things at hand first..." Ning Zhe re-read the four messages sent by Feng Yusu.
"Mom told me not to trust anyone but you because everyone wants to kill me."
Bai Zhi turned off her phone screen, a little confused: "When you say 'everyone', does it include mom herself?"
"It should be included." Ning Zhe nodded and said, "Ghosts are rules, and rules are strict. Auntie should understand this, so what she says should also be rigorous."
At this time, the knock on the door sounded again.
"Boss Zhang, are you asleep? Please open the door." The voice of the gas station employee came from outside: "There is a cracked pipe outside. Master Liu said that his tool box is in your room. Can you please open the door and let us get it?"
Ning Zhe switched to Zhang Yangxu's identity and stood up. Sure enough, there was a toolbox in the corner. It seemed that it was left here when the previous employees were moving things. As to whether it was accidental or intentional, no one knew.
"What tools do you need? I'll hand them to you through the window." Ning Zhe walked to the corner and opened the toolbox.
The toolbox is quite large, and it is impossible to pass the entire box through the grille of the anti-theft net.
Ning Zhe's attitude made the employee look a little dissatisfied: "Why don't you just open the door? It won't take a few minutes. Why are you making so much trouble?"
"I don't know how to open the door. Don't make me repeat it for the third time. Just tell me what tools you need." Ning Zhe remained calm.
"Oh, you really are... Could it be that your daughter is changing clothes in the room or something, and it's inconvenient to open the door?" The employee still didn't give up, and slowly persuaded: "It's okay, we are not in a hurry to use the toolbox, you can wait until she is changed before opening the door..."
"Tell me what tools you need." Ning Zhe's voice remained calm.
The two of them fought a war of attrition at the door. One side tried to persuade the other to open the door, even for a moment, while the other side refused to give in and refused to open the door. However, as they were fighting, Ning Zhe found something wrong.
His body began to become increasingly weak without him noticing, his temples began to ache slightly, and a feeling of dizziness came over him.
Looking back, Bai Zhi was leaning weakly against the head of the bed, her face pale, her breathing rapid, her lips a sickly cherry red, and she looked even worse than herself.
Ning Zhe turned his head and fixed his eyes on the exhaust fan embedded high on the wall near the ceiling. It was turning slowly.
"There's something wrong with the air in the room. Did they pump poisonous gas into the room through the exhaust fan?"
"But I didn't smell anything strange... that toxic substance is colorless and odorless..."
Mercury poisoning? Or something else?
...The feeling of chest tightness gradually arose, Ning Zhe's breathing became more and more difficult, his brain was dizzy, he had a headache, and his limbs began to feel weak. Bai Zhi's body was weaker than Zhang Yangxu's, and now he was leaning against the head of the bed and could not get up.
"Boss Zhang, can you please open the door?" the employee outside the door shouted again.
"Okay... open the door, I'll open the door for you..." Ning Zhe panted weakly and pulled out the wrench that was inserted into the door handle. Because of dizziness, his eyes could not focus and he failed several times to pull out the bolt.
In his current state, even an elementary school student could kill him alone.
As soon as the door was opened, two gas station employees who were guarding outside rushed in without saying hello. One of them was holding a fire axe and the other was holding a homemade short spear. They ignored Ning Zhe who was leaning weakly against the door frame and rushed directly to Bai Zhi who was lying on the bed.
"It seems that Auntie is right. Everyone wants to kill you."
Ning Zhe held his breath, and his slightly plump middle-aged body instantly became tall and slender. The shirt soaked with sweat stuck to his stomach, outlining the clear lines of his abdominal muscles.
The person who was poisoned was Zhang Yangxu, what does it have to do with Ning Zhe.
Before the gas station employee could pierce Bai Zhi's body with the short spear in his hand, Ning Zhe rushed forward at an even faster speed and swiftly smashed the large wrench in his hand on the back of his head, cracking his skull and brain stem on the spot.
At the same time as the spear-wielding employee died, Ning Zhe had a flat-blade screwdriver in his other hand that he had taken out of the toolbox. He loosened the bloody wrench and quickly strangled the axe-wielding employee's neck with his arm, and the screwdriver pierced his throat.
The screwdriver entered from the Adam's apple and came out from the base of the ear, and blood gushed out.
However, the neck is not a fragile part of the body like the back of the head that can cause immediate death. Even if his throat was pierced, the employee still had the strength to struggle and threw the axe in his hand towards Baizhi on the bed.
Ning Zhe locked his arms tightly around his neck, pulled the screwdriver out of his throat, and then stabbed it in again.
Pull out again, stab again, and pull out again.
This was repeated several times, and blood spurted out from the artery like a fountain, splashing a bright red color on the girl in the white dress.
Ning Zhe put down the dead gas station employee, picked up the half-meter short spear on the ground, and with his other hand picked up Bai Zhi, who had lost the ability to move, and quickly left the room filled with odorless poisonous gas.
As soon as he walked out the door, Ning Zhe heard a noisy sound of footsteps.
Several indifferent figures walked towards him. They were the remaining employees and the boss of the gas station. They were holding various weapons in their hands, including machetes, wild boar spears, riot batons...
There was also an earthen gun that was polished to a shiny patina.
