Chapter 156: A Lingering Fear

I quickly glanced beside me. Gu Yuan had already left the bedroom. I tried to soothe the counselor's emotions, telling her not to be in a hurry and that we could talk things through slowly.

The counselor told me that many corpses had been dug out from the wall of Classroom 405 and asked if I could bring the immortals to take a look.

I didn't reply immediately. After all, I needed to discuss it with Gu Yuan.

After hanging up the phone, I quickly called him. It turned out that he had gone to the shrine. After hearing what had happened, he wasn't in a hurry.

He told me to calm down and said that there was nothing serious. The yin energy in Classroom 405 had already been dispelled by him, and now it was just an ordinary classroom.

Since there was no longer any yin energy to cover it up, the corpses trapped by the ghost king in Classroom 405 were naturally discovered.

The school should notify the parents to claim the corpses. As long as the corpses left the classroom and were buried properly, they could be reincarnated.

"So that's how it is. I'm relieved now."

But then I thought, wouldn't Yan Lin also know that Tian Peng was dead? I really wanted to go to school to take a look.

However, after what happened last time, I had become very cautious. I didn't dare to leave home rashly. I had to get Gu Yuan's permission before I could go out.

"Gu Yuan, can I go to school?"

Gu Yuan was surprised to see me so obedient. He replied, "When did you become so well - behaved? Go ahead. Isn't the silver bell already on your wrist?"

"Sure, it is. Then I'm going out. Hehe." I replied cheerfully. With his permission, I had nothing to worry about.

I touched the silver bell on my hand again and thought of the situation in the coffin. I had been in a hallucination at that time.

The silver bell had actually been on my hand all along, but I had been tricked by an illusion. Coupled with my fear and nervousness, I had thought it was lost.

This time, Gu Yuan had cast a spell on the bell. Unless he cast a spell to take it off, no one could remove it, not even me.

This made both him and me feel more at ease.

The new home was very close to the school. I changed my clothes and walked just one block to get to the school.

At this moment, Classroom 405 in the teaching building was surrounded by students who were curious to see what was going on. There were all kinds of noisy discussions in the crowd. I stood outside the crowd and listened carefully.

"This is a wall made of corpses! It's so terrifying."

"Exactly! How much hatred must there be to bury so many people in the wall?"

"Stop talking. Be careful they come to find you at night."

"Could it be a serial murder case?"

I was listening intently outside the crowd when suddenly someone patted me on the shoulder from behind, which scared me.

Yan Lin looked angry. "You still have the nerve to come. What on earth were you doing yesterday? Your phone was off. You don't know we had an appointment for dinner. You stood me up again. And the glasses guy too. He disappeared without a trace yesterday..."

She rambled on and on. It seemed that she really knew nothing about what had happened yesterday. Gu Yuan was so meticulous that he didn't let Yan Lin and the others be frightened at all.

While Gu Yuan was facing all kinds of dangers to protect them, they were still enjoying themselves at night without knowing anything. It was really infuriating.

I was too lazy to listen to her nonsense. I looked up towards Classroom 405, but there were too many boys in front of me. I couldn't see anything standing outside the crowd.

Seeing that I didn't answer her and my eyes were always on the classroom, Yan Lin said, "If you want to go in and take a look, I'll take you in." Then she grabbed my hand and squeezed into the crowd.

It took us a long time to squeeze to the front row.

The wall that the students were talking about was right in front of me. More than half of it had been dug out. Apart from a layer of white wall paint on the outside, there were densely packed bones inside. It looked very terrifying. The closer to the door, the newer the corpses were. Some still had skin and flesh on them.

When they dug out the front - most corpse, I seemed to recognize the clothes. It was Tian Peng's clothes.

"Yan Lin, let's stop looking. Let's go quickly." I grabbed Yan Lin's hand and squeezed out.

Yan Lin was completely confused by me. I wanted to look one moment and then didn't want to the next.

When we were trying to get out of the crowded crowd, because there were too many people, it was very difficult to get out. Yan Lin gave a hard push and accidentally bumped into a female classmate, knocking her down.

I quickly wanted to step forward to help the girl up, but it seemed that the girl didn't like to be touched. When I grabbed her arm, I could clearly feel her body twitching.

When her face, full of panic, looked at me, I was stunned for a couple of seconds.

This girl had double pupils.

Double pupils meant that there were two pupils in the iris.

The pupils of normal people were in the shape of an "o" and would contract or expand with the intensity of the light. But for those with double pupils, there was an extra pupil on the eyeball. The two pupils grew side by side, looking like the Arabic numeral 8 lying on its side, that is, in the shape of "∞".

It was said that people with double pupils had the innate ability of yin - yang eyes and could glimpse the secrets of heaven. They could see things that normal people couldn't.

At first glance, it was really scary, but my psychological quality had become so strong that I could remain calm when faced with terrifying phenomena and not show any emotions.

The girl didn't make a sound after being knocked down. She patted the dust on her palms and stood up.

I didn't dare to step forward to help her for fear of making her nervous.

I just asked with concern, "Are you okay, classmate? Are you injured?"

The girl seemed very self - conscious. She immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to look at me.

Seeing me talking to the girl, Yan Lin quickly pulled me aside. With a look of disgust on her face, she said, "Stay away from her. She's very unlucky. You'll have bad luck if you touch her."

Hearing Yan Lin say this about her, the girl didn't refute. She just lowered her head and ran away.

Watching the girl walk away, I glared at Yan Lin and said, "How could you talk like that in front of her?"

Yan Lin didn't think she was being impolite. She argued, "It's not just me saying this. Everyone in the university knows. She's a freshman. It's said that she's a yin - born child."

Yan Lin looked around mysteriously and whispered, "Do you know what a yin - born child is? It's a child born after the mother died during pregnancy."

"People like this have the fate of being an ill - omened star. Whoever gets close to her will be cursed. So it's better for us to stay away from her."

I didn't agree with her words. Just as I was about to argue with her, a classmate in the on - looking crowd suddenly called out Tian Peng's name.

"Tian Peng, we haven't seen you for many days. Where have you been?"

I was stunned on the spot. Wasn't Tian Peng already dead? But the tone of the classmate in the crowd clearly showed that they were talking to Tian Peng. Could it be someone with the same name?

Not only did I hear this classmate's voice, but Yan Lin also did.

"The glasses guy is in there too. I'll call him over. You two should get to know each other."

She immediately put on her innocent look again and looked into the crowd with a bright smile.

"Tian Peng, I'm here!" Yan Lin shouted Tian Peng's name outside the crowd.

After a while, a sunny and handsome boy squeezed out of the crowd.

This person was none other than Tian Peng.

I couldn't help but gasp. I grabbed Yan Lin's arm and didn't let her get closer.

Yan Lin didn't know why I was holding her back and asked me with a bit of blame what I was doing.

As Tian Peng got closer to us bit by bit, my hand slowly moved to the silver bell.
