"": "The night was desolate and still as water. Luo Bin raced through it!

Shang Liuli followed him, her face taut.

With Fourth Master Gray helping him, Luo Bin soon pulled so far ahead that Shang Liuli could only see his back.

Luo Bin ran faster and faster. His body was still cold, goose bumps rising over his skin in endless waves!

As they left the courtyard, Shang Liuli had explained what had happened in a few quick words.

Gu Yiren had gone to the pool at the end of the village.

At first, Shang Liuli had merely thought that some kind of pressure had caused Gu Yiren to see things that "didn't exist" again. She hadn't thought Gu Yiren had seen a ghost.

After spending so much time with her, Shang Liuli had discovered that, besides being targeted by others' schemes, Gu Yiren had certain problems of her own, particularly with her mental state. Under excessive pressure, she would become disoriented and even forget things.

No one knew about this detail. Not even he did.

Only by living in this village and spending so much time with Gu Yiren had Shang Liuli been able to notice it.

But tonight had been different.

At first, Shang Liuli had thought Gu Yiren was having another episode.

Only when she tried to save her did she discover that something was attached to Gu Yiren!

When Luo Bin heard Shang Liuli describe what that thing looked like, he felt as though he had plunged into an ice cellar. His limbs nearly froze stiff!

"Little Luo, steady yourself. You're almost as fast as Fourth Master now, but you've only got two legs, not four like me. A fall could be serious." Fourth Master Gray squeaked a warning to Luo Bin.
