Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Not a Ghost

The moon once again hid behind the clouds, and Bai Sasa could not see the face of the shadow at all, only feeling that his complexion was deathly pale, and it seemed as though he had two heads.

Just as Bai Sasa was surreptitiously sizing him up, the shadow happened to look up, and their eyes met.

Bai Sasa felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

The pair of blood-red eyes from her dream were now right below her.

The shadow beneath the vine ladder became excited, climbing up even faster and emitting a strange "chattering" noise from his mouth.

Bai Sasa’s mind went blank for three seconds before she hurriedly stumbled backward.

"Elder sister... Elder sister... wake up quickly, a ghost! There’s a ghost knocking on the door!"

At that moment, Bai Junjun was sound asleep, and when she was suddenly slapped awake, she sleepily opened her eyes to see some strange creature with one or two heads appearing at the door.

"Aaaah!!!!"

Bai Sasa’s panic woke everyone else in the room, and Bai Lingyu and Xiao Shan were frightened into a cacophony of cries at the sight of the creature at the door.

Li Wenli and Bai Junjun hadn’t yet been scared by the creature at the door, but were first startled by the ghostly howling of the two kids inside.

The creature at the door also seemed to be quite frightened by the sharp screams, pausing for a moment before scurrying down and running away.

At that moment, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli instinctively looked outside, only to see the creature lifting its leg and running towards the depths of the jungle.

He wasn’t particularly strong-looking, but he was quite agile, disappearing into the jungle in no time.

The two of them immediately prepared to give chase, while the three kids held onto them, completely lost.

"Elder sister, where are you going?"

"Sasa, you know the way to that village, right? Lead us there quickly."

"?"

Bai Sasa seemed to have not yet recovered from the shock.

This ghost had the audacity to show up at their door, which meant it was no good spirit. And now he had run away, but Elder Sister actually wanted to chase after him? Was this not seeking death?

"He isn’t a ghost, he’s a person."

Bai Junjun gave a brief explanation before picking up the little ones and going downstairs.

"Since he dared to provoke us, he should be ready for revenge! What kind of acting divine and acting ghostly is this, just wait until he regrets it!"

Bai Junjun was very annoyed at being woken up.

This person really lacked manners, whether he had come over in the middle of the night to mount a sneak attack or just to play tricks. In any case, he had picked the wrong target!

Besides, being startled by that person, the kids likely wouldn’t be able to sleep anyway. It would be better to take them directly to the source rather than letting them scare themselves until dawn here.

After all, after a half-night’s rest, her Special Ability had recovered as well.

That was the advantage of leveling up. Before reaching the First Rank, if her Special Ability receded, she would have to start over from the beginning.

Once the threshold of the First Rank was crossed, as long as she replenished energy in time, she could rejuvenate.

There was even less to worry about the energy being exhausted when reaching the Third Rank, for by that time, the body would have an automatic endurance ability. As long as there were green plants nearby, it would be as convenient as solar power.

Bai Junjun looked forward to that day’s arrival.

"How are you doing?"

Bai Junjun had no issues herself and thus asked her ally.

At that time, Li Wenli was also carrying Bai Lingyu downstairs.

He nodded and said, "Catching a ghost-acting thief is no problem."

Certainly, his view was the same as Bai Junjun’s.

The other side was definitely neither a ghost nor a living dead.

Watching the two of them, Bai Sasa had no choice but to lead the way reluctantly.

It was about half-past four in the morning, the coolest time of the day, and since they were going to "catch ghosts," the kids’ hands and feet were somewhat cold.

At this moment, Bai Sasa was walking ahead, carrying Dawn Cedar and the Mosquito-eating Plant on her back, while Bai Junjun and Li Wenli each carried a child and followed alongside.
