Chapter 150: Chapter 115: The Pretentiousness of the Cheap (Qianxiao Qing Sha and He’s Jade+)

Boom!

The gunshot echoed in the vast, seemingly enclosed space, sending out a clear, resounding echo that gradually faded with a buzzing sound.

Pale gun smoke wafted through the air, now tinged with the scent of gunpowder.

And the smell of... blood.

And one second after the gunshot echoed through the air.

Sui Yi stood beneath the wall, the Xiezhi Dagger slightly drooping, her eyes narrowing slightly as she looked at Gong Jiu opposite her.

Gong Jiu, with her gun pointed at Sui Yi, had wisps of white smoke rising from the muzzle.

In the middle of the space between them stood Doggy, in a sorry state, with a bloody hole in his right arm.

Penetrated by a bullet.

Ah Hai and the others were stunned.

Brother Ma laughed.

Feng Sha remained silent.

Flower Demon raised an eyebrow, wiping her pistol with a silk handkerchief and said indifferently, "Before you were as weak as a dog, scared to death, yet your speed was surprisingly fast."

After a pause, she narrowed her eyes and said with a smirk, "So fast that you don’t seem like the same person you used to be."

She had always been thorough in her investigations of Gong Jiu’s subordinates. Although Doggy wasn’t the most critical among them, she had looked into him, and precisely because he wasn’t a key player, his current reflexes seemed all the more strange.

"The former Doggy..." Gong Jiu cocked her head, looking at Doggy’s right arm, and said indifferently, "The him from before would never have been so impervious to pain. To think you can remain so composed with your arm shot through, you are quite the character."

"Or should I say, Bitter Ghost Doll brother, you are quite the character!"

"What!"

Ah Hai and the others finally reacted!

Was Doggy the Bitter Ghost Doll?

So the one Ninth Miss had wanted to shoot dead wasn’t Sui Yi, but Doggy!

Laughter came from Doggy, under that pale, aggrieved facade, a sinister, eerie, and treacherous laugh.

It resonated in the space.

What was even stranger was that his mouth didn’t open.

Nor did his throat move.

Where was this laughter coming from?

Thwack! Brother Ma slapped his thigh, damn, that was the sound!

"Shit! It was you who laughed with that sound! You led those ghostly things to relentlessly pursue us, capable of catching up no matter how much I struggled. It’s because you were danging in front of us! I knew those things were eerie!"

Back then, they were being chased by those Bitter Ghost Dolls in that tunnel... And Doggy was just with his group!

And there was Ah Fei!

"Doggy! It really is you..." Ah Fei also suddenly remembered, pointing at Doggy, "I knew there was something off about your expression at the time... and it hasn’t changed even now..."

How many expressions can a person’s face have?

The answer is countless.

What is the least number of expressions a person’s face can have?

Medical investigations suggest that there are at least four: happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy.

But there are some with extreme personalities who only have two.

-- Open eyes and closed eyes.

They are poker-faced.

Gong Jiu thought Sui Yi was poker-faced, but that was a joke.

There’s no such thing as a hundred percent poker-faced person unless they’re ill.

A true poker face is a disease.

Was Doggy?

He wasn’t, yet under the watchful eye of Ah Fei and others, whether intentional or not, he had only one expression.

Pale, frail, somewhat aggrieved.

This expression could easily soften others’ wariness and also greatly diminish his own presence.

"Yes, it has always been me," came a voice like that of a baby, delicate, detailed, and whining.

Emanating from Doggy who had never opened his mouth.

The intonation was strange. Distorted.

And in an instant, the expression on Doggy’s face changed, or to be exact, something seemed to be crawling beneath his skin...

Everyone’s heart raced.

Doggy raised his hand, placing his palm on his face...

And grabbed.

Rip!

A piece of his face was torn off.

A bloody face.

-- A ghostly face!

Vomit~~

Quite a few people felt their stomachs churn, especially Gong Jiu and Flower Demon, who couldn’t help but remember the actions they took during their facial routines...

Gently tear it off from the face with their hands...

The skin lies in the palm of their hand.

In the mirror, a face muddled with blood and prominent blue veins.

The two eyes...

Bland and soulless.

Terrible, unspeakably terrible!

"Shit, a ghost!"

In an instant, bullets were fired from Gong Jiu and others!

Swipe, Doggy’s figure slipped into the shadows!

The beams from everyone’s flashlights tried to follow, but couldn’t keep up with the other’s speed; they could only hear the figure flitting through the combat-ready terracotta figures in the darkness.

Like a specter, the creepy laughter lingered.

"You’re all going to die, all of you, it’s coming soon, they’re coming soon..."

Such terrifying laughter disquieted everyone present, beads of cold sweat forming as their impatience grew.

"Shit, the bullets can’t hit!"

"Kill, kill him!"

"Damn it, kill this ghostly thing!"

"Shit!"

"Damned Doggy!"

Many people’s eyes turned bloodshot with murderous intent.

And in that moment, the previously quiet Sui Yi burst out from beneath the wall, slickly avoiding two terracotta figures, and as she turned, the Xiezhi Dagger flew from her hand!

Swipe!

Tracing an arc...

Thump!

He slashed at Doggy, who was crouching on the wall.

Hiss!

Doggy let out a cold hiss and suddenly lunged at Sui Yi with ferocity.

Indeed, the first person he hated the most was Sui Yi, the first one to see through him!

In fact, from the beginning, he had noticed Sui Yi looking at him with a deep gaze and casually observing him several times; even when she was being discreet, he was still anxious.

Yet unbeknownst to him, she was capable of biding her time until now!

"I’ll kill you! I’ll peel off your face! Damn woman!"

He catapulted towards her, pouncing down from mid-air!

His claws violently tore through the air...

At that moment, Sui Yi leaped up from below!

In midair, Flower Demon turned around, alerted by the noise, shining the flashlight over there.

Just in time to illuminate mid-air.

In the palm of her hand, Sui Yi’s Xiezhi Dagger, in a split second, just as it left her hand and traced a beautiful and fleeting curve, instantly severed Doggy’s arms’ meridians...

She delivered a spinning kick in the air!

Boom!

Doggy smashed heavily onto the ground!

Whoosh!

Zhang Wei, who had been on guard the whole time, had an icy demeanor as he suddenly rushed forward, pinning Doggy down with hands twisted behind his back, stepping on him firmly, pressing him directly to the ground.

"What kind of monster are you, still needing a human body to live. I’d like to see how you move now!"

With his hands twisted behind, and the meridians cut, the laughter was no longer steady and soon disappeared completely.

At that moment, Brother Ma moved forward.

"Fuck, you’ve betrayed with my brother’s body!"

Brother Ma fiercely pressed the barrel of the gun against the head of the person on the ground.

"You monstrous thing, I suppose it’s your life that pays back for Doggy’s!"

Brother Ma’s voice, gritting his teeth, was chilling and filled with hatred.

Ah Hai and the others were eager to take this fiend down on the spot.

Sui Yi stepped forward, and Gong Jiu suddenly reached out. Sui Yi didn’t dodge, allowing her to squeeze her arm...

"Is your hand okay? You’re still making such big movements... Aren’t you afraid of bleeding out?" Gong Jiu complained.

As if the person who had previously pointed a gun at Sui Yi wasn’t her.

Sui Yi’s eyelids flicked up, her eyes losing some of their weariness.

"If your movements are that big and you’re not afraid of bleeding out, why should I be?"

She said this indifferently, making Gong Jiu’s face turn red, then pale, then white...

--Fuck, you repressed and expressionless woman!

Despite her irritation, Gong Jiu, the beauty, definitely wouldn’t tell anyone that she felt great about it,

Damn, that’s the real Sui Yi...

"Hey, weren’t you afraid I’d really shoot you just now?" she quietly asked.

"Hmm."

"What’s ’hmm’? Are you scared or not?"

"Scared? You’re not at the level to be a threat to me..."

"...Fuck!"

If you just said I absolutely trust you, I know you won’t hurt me... would it kill you!!!

Upon seeing the two of them interact this way, Flower Demon rolled her eyes.

--Such pretentious people!

------

After all the posturing, Gong Jiu looked down at Doggy on the ground.

"I suppose you wouldn’t tell us anything useful, though I’m curious about the ’they’ you speak of..."

She paused, then turned to Sui Yi, "What do you think we should do with him?"

Although their suspicion towards Doggy was common to all three of them and acknowledged by Brother Ma, in this matter, she still wanted to hear Sui Yi’s opinion.

Sui Yi pondered for a moment, "Lift up his clothes from the back..."

Ah Hai, now fully recovered, knew he had blundered, and upon hearing this immediately slapped his chest, "Miss Sui Yi, my apologies, I misunderstood you earlier, it was my narrow-mindedness, suspecting you..."

"It’s okay..." Sui Yi shook her head.

"Let me do it, let’s reveal this monster’s true face," Ah Hai said.

Sui Yi glanced at Gong Jiu, who nodded.

"Be careful."

Ah Hai quickly stepped forward and opened Doggy’s shirt to reveal a bulging lump of flesh on his back...

The lump was still writhing, and that eerie laughter emanated once more.

"Go ahead and kill, for you’re all going to die anyway... when they arrive..."

Fucking hell, still so brazen at a time like this!

Brother Ma’s eyes reddened, swoosh! He drew Feng Sha’s knife!

With a slash, the skin on the back split open, releasing a foul stench.

Everyone gasped in horror.

Such a dreadful thing!

Sui Yi and Gong Jiu, having seen it before, were not surprised or doubtful; they just thought this thing was a size bigger than before, perhaps a mini-boss among the Bitter Ghost Dolls.

No wonder it was so potent.

As soon as the skin split open, before anyone could get a good look, the Bitter Ghost Doll burst out violently.

Sui Yi and Gong Jiu were already prepared...

The blades flashed!

Swoosh!

The Bitter Ghost Doll was instantly chopped into several pieces.

"Fuck, finally dead!"

"Avenged Doggy!"

"Damn it, I want to chop it up!"

The curses and bloodthirsty voices of the people around caused Gong Jiu and Flower Demon to frown, but at that moment...

"Hehehe... they’ve already arrived, they’re awake... coming for you..."

This voice, lightly dissipating into the air, echoed in everyone’s mind, as if a ghostly presence was perched on their ears, repeatedly whispering.

Sui Yi’s heart skipped a beat, her expression slightly changed, a bitter smile crossed her face.

"We’ve fallen into a trap, they have already come!"

As soon as the voice fell.

Behind Sui Yi, a sword appeared out of nowhere and slashed down!

From above her head, it swept down! (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to qidian.com to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
