This was also a mark left by mories. From this height, the entire town could be viewed, and the abandoned Yuchuan Elentary School stood silently like a forsaken sentinel.
"Let’s keep going and look ahead," Mr. Beichuan didn’t stop and moved forward.
Qiushan Caiyin had a puzzled look on her face.
Why are you asking when you’ve already taken it upon yourself to walk ahead?
Seeing that Mr. Beichuan had already walked a distance, she hurriedly jogged to catch up and said,
"...That’s fine, but Mr. Temple, you cannot enter the old school building. At the front entrance... I heard there’s a seal... It might seem odd to soone from a big city like you..."
"No."
Mr. Beichuan glanced sidelong at Qiushan Caiyin, "I believe in these things. Not to hide from Miss Qiushan, my primary reason for coming here is because of that seal."
"Really?" Qiushan Caiyin’s voice sounded a bit odd.
Mr. Beichuan said he ca for sightseeing, but actually, he ca for an insignificant legend in the Danze Mountain Area?
Qiushan Caiyin felt she was increasingly unable to understand the people from big cities.
Aren’t there many urban legends in Japan, Tokyo?
The two walked to the base of the old school building.
Only now did Mr. Beichuan clearly see the crumbling wooden school building.
The school building was dilapidated, and the wooden walls appeared to have been eaten by termites, with holes everywhere.
So of the glass windows were shattered, the jagged edges of the remaining glass pieces emanating a sinister sharpness.
At the far end to the left of the school building, Mr. Beichuan saw a swimming pool area enclosed by light green wire fencing, identical to that in the spiritual realm.
This ant that this ancient school building was like that spiritual realm... and perhaps there was even a direct passage from here to the spiritual realm.
Mr. Beichuan looked up silently.
The school building was eerily silent on this most remote edge, seemingly truly forgotten by the Yuchuan people, just as written in the "Lost Yuchuan."
And at the front entrance, Mr. Beichuan and Qiushan Caiyin clearly saw white talismans haphazardly plastered everywhere.
On the talismans, there were also inscrutable vermilion characters.
So of the talismans seed stained by sothing, emitting a bloody red color.
"There really is a seal... impressive, it’s my first ti seeing one."
Qiushan Caiyin covered her mouth.
Since Yuchuan Elentary School had been closed off for years, even she, a local, had never seen the actual seal. Seeing it for the first ti took her by surprise, and she couldn’t help but open her mouth wide.
Just as she was astonished, a sound suddenly erupted beside her.
Click—
"Eh...?" Qiushan Caiyin blinked, looking incredulously at Mr. Beichuan.
"Mr. Beichuan, what are you doing?"
Without looking at Qiushan Caiyin, Mr. Beichuan continued his actions, "Taking photos."
"Huh?" Qiushan Caiyin scratched her head, confused.
Faced with such a sinister and terrifying scene, why are you thinking of taking photos? What are you thinking?
She just couldn’t understand Mr. Beichuan.
Just as Qiushan Caiyin was about to move closer to Mr. Beichuan by a few steps, he suddenly pushed her back violently with his hand!
The great force made her stumble.
"What are you doing, Mr. Beichuan..."
Qiushan Caiyin cried out in pain, about to complain, when she then saw a fiery red fire axe chopping down with a whoosh at the spot where she had just been standing.
Bang!!!!
Dirt flew everywhere!
Qiushan Caiyin’s eyes shrank to the size of needles in terror; she yelped for a good while, then shifted her gaze to look behind her.
Unknowingly, a figure had appeared behind her, wearing a white large mask, a round cap, and wrapped tightly all over.
The man had a backpack, and the blade of the fire axe in his hand twinkled with a cold gleam.
Perhaps sensing Qiushan Caiyin’s gaze, the man’s ferocious, brutal eyes turned toward her—
"Ah!!!"
Qiushan Caiyin let out a sharp and mournful scream of terror.
Her legs, as if seized by a fit, spasd uncontrollably, and for a mont, she couldn’t even move.
And just as she stared in horror at the man wielding the fire axe—
Boom!!!!
The man clenching the fireman’s axe had a sowhat bizarre elongation of his face... Then he spun around in the air with the axe, which then thudded to the ground on the other side.
"Uh... haha... ha...?" Qiushan Caiyin made a strange noise from her throat and turned to look in the other direction.
All she saw was Mr. Beichuan Si slowly lowering the kicked leg, coldly staring at the masked man downed.
After retracting his leg, Mr. Beichuan Si turned towards Qiushan Caiyin and extended his hand, "Are you alright, Miss Qiushan?"
"Ah... n-no, I’m fine." Qiushan Caiyin’s voice shook, she tightly gripped Mr. Beichuan Si’s hand and stood up to embrace his hand completely.
In the face of life and death, still not freed from fear, she clung to Mr. Beichuan Si like a drowning person grabbing onto a straw—
Though, this straw was a bit stout.
Mr. Beichuan Si was sowhat speechless.
He looked at Qiushan Caiyin, her face filled with fear and terror, and carefully said,
"Miss Qiushan, loosen your grip, please. I didn’t use much strength just now, it won’t be long before he cos around."
Not much strength?
Hearing this, Qiushan Caiyin only felt that the image of this Tokyo High School student, Mr. Beichuan Si, grew even more imposing.
That kick had sent the masked man spinning around, and that was with Mr. Beichuan Si not using much strength?
Qiushan Caiyin thought this major antagonist had just been subdued by a single kick from Mr. Beichuan Si...
Wouldn’t a full-powered kick from Mr. Beichuan Si be able to kill a man?
Obeying, Qiushan Caiyin loosened her grip but was still full of fear, "Who, who is this person, Mr. Beichuan?"
Mr. Beichuan Si rubbed his chin, already having a guess in mind, "If I’m not mistaken, he should be an acquaintance of mine."
"An acquaintance?" Qiushan Caiyin swallowed hard, "I wouldn’t want any acquaintance like this."
Mr. Beichuan Si didn’t mind her remark and walked straight to the masked man, just about to bend down when—
The previously still masked man suddenly moved!
From nowhere, he produced a dagger, his right arm lifting, and the smooth blade aiming horizontally at Mr. Beichuan Si’s neck!
Qiushan Caiyin’s eyes widened as a fearful scream almost escaped—
Just like an adult scolding a child, Mr. Beichuan Si nonchalantly raised his hand and knocked away the dagger.
Then he fiercely stomped on the man’s wrist!
Accompanied by the crisp sound of breaking bones, Mr. Beichuan Si could clearly see the mouth shapes of the masked man as he gasped in pain.
"Still not behaving."
Mr. Beichuan Si shook his head.
He simply went ahead and broke both of the man’s leg bones with two kicks.
After doing all that, Mr. Beichuan Si ceased his actions, looking at the masked man, who was in extre pain,
"To be honest, I really didn’t want to treat you this way, Professor Seto Cheng."
Seto Cheng...
Hearing this na, the man on the ground showed a slight expression of surprise and fear.
After a good while, when the pain slightly eased, the masked man managed with his intact left hand to take off his mask.
It was the face of a middle-aged man, sowhat pale.
It indeed was Seto Cheng.
He looked at Mr. Beichuan Si, speaking in a strained tone,
"How did you know... it was ?"
"Ever since I arrived in the town, you’ve been following . I guessed it might be you, but I didn’t know why you were following or what your purpose was."
Before Mr. Beichuan Si could finish, Seto Cheng showed a smile uglier than crying,
"So you thought of this...you wanted to put yourself in a secluded environnt to draw out...right?"
Mr. Beichuan Si nodded,
"Actually, I didn’t expect you to act so hastily and attempt to attack and Qiushan Caiyin here."
Indeed, Mr. Beichuan Si had not anticipated that Seto Cheng would be so eager to make a move on him and Qiushan Caiyin here.
But Seto Cheng clearly didn’t care about those details anymore.
He struggled to stand up and looked at the ominous and terrifying Yuchuan Elentary School main building, suddenly starting to cry and laugh.
He cried loudly, and laughed loudly as well.
The laughter mixed with the crying sounded like a curse.
