On the first floor of the shop, some spaces were filled with completed dolls.

The eyes of these dolls were pitch-black, as if they were alive, staring at Huang Xiaolong and Cui Feiyan.

In these pairs of eyes, it seemed as if they were filled with resentment, evil, and hatred!

“Feiyan, toy stores are terrifying places. Especially these dolls.” Huang Xiaolong surprisingly began to speak. “Because dolls are human-like, many spirits and resentful ghosts particularly like to attach themselves to dolls.”

“Feiyan, do you know about ‘Kuman Thong’?” Huang Xiaolong’s enthusiasm grew, “Kuman Thong originates from Southeast Asia, a sacred item with over a hundred years of history, also known as ‘Golden Boy’ or ‘Buddha Boy’. They are made from various materials into the shape of a child, sanctified by monks or sorcerers to let the spirits of aborted or accidentally deceased children reside within. Devotees provide for them to protect their homes. The ones who provide for Kuman will accumulate blessings for themselves and their descendants.”

“In essence, ‘Kuman Thong’ are a type of dolls.”

“As well as Voodoo dolls from the Voodoo religion.”

“Little Long! Stop talking!” Cui Feiyan felt a chill run through her body as she listened, especially in the current environment, her scalp was tingling, she was petrified. “I am never going to toy stores again! I’m not buying dolls ever again! Stop scaring me!”

“Sweat… Feiyan, I didn’t mean to scare you. Everything I said is true…” Huang Xiaolong shook his head.

“Little Long, let’s… let’s hurry out of here… something’s not right about this place…” Cui Feiyan’s face became deathly pale and clung tightly to Huang Xiaolong’s arm.

“Feiyan, Zhou’s shop has three floors, and I need to visit the second and third floors. If you’re scared, you can leave first.” Huang Xiaolong said.

“I? I… I… I’m not leaving. If we are going to leave, let’s leave together.” Cui Feiyan was already a little scared, at this moment, how could she leave alone? She just wanted to be with Huang Xiaolong.

Because only Huang Xiaolong could provide her with a sense of absolute security.

‘The first floor of this shop has a lot of spirits…’ Huang Xiaolong looked around.

Suddenly, as Cui Feiyan was walking, she kicked against something round, like a ball.

Cui Feiyan screamed in fear once more, just like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

On closer examination, what Cui Feiyan had kicked was a semi-finished doll.

Well, it was a head.

“Feiyan, be careful.” Huang Xiaolong reminded with a smile.

Just then!

“Sister, you kicked my head…”

Suddenly, the voice of a little girl rang out!

The air rippled, less than a meter in front of Huang Xiaolong and Cui Feiyan, a blurry shadow appeared!

Floating in mid-air!

It was the image of a young girl with a ponytail, but her head was severely damaged!

Her neck was broken! A piece of skin connected her head and body, drooping diagonally, her eyes, full of blood, looked utterly terrifying and gruesome.

“Little Long!!!!!” Cui Feiyan was so scared that she clung onto Huang Xiaolong tightly!

“Uh… Feiyan, I told you not to come with me, didn’t believe me? But don’t be afraid, it’s just the spirit of a child, uh… a ghost, but not a malicious one…” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile.

“Ghost…” Cold sweat trickled down Cui Feiyan’s back.

She was frightened, but she was not so scared as to collapse or faint.

Ghosts were not unfamiliar to Cui Feiyan!

She had encountered ghosts in Cui Dong’s villa.

In her dreams, she had seen ghosts too.

Besides, she knew that the man standing by her side was quite adept at dealing with ghosts.

“Little Long…you…you must protect me…” Despite being a formidable woman in the business world, when faced with spectres, she was no different from the average girl.

“Feiyan, don’t worry, I’ve got you.” Huang Xiaolong gave her a cheeky grin.

The next moment…

“Brother, Sister ?”

“Brother ?Sister ?”

“Brother ?Sister ?”

The voices of children echoed.

Then, the spirits of many little boys and girls appeared out of nowhere.

When spirits did not want to be seen, ordinary people were unable to see them. But when they wanted to be seen, all they had to do was reveal their ghostly forms.

These spirits were all very miserable in their pre-death state, bloodied and mangled. Some had their facial skin gruesomely peeled off, others even had their entire bodies skinned…

However, they did not seem to harbor any malicious intentions.

“Little Long…there are so many… so many ghosts of children…what…what is going on…” Cui Feiyan’s teeth chattered.

“Brother and sister, you should leave quickly. The old man here is very fierce. He will kill you.” A little boy wearing suspenders, with a dagger pierced through his heart and his facial skin peeled off, spoke in a trembling voice. “Also, there are a lot of scary older brothers and sisters upstairs, they…they eat us…”

“Huh? The brothers and sisters upstairs, eat you?” Huang Xiaolong furrowed his brows and, immediately, a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. “So, the boss of Zhou’s, knows the craft of raising ghosts. Even keeping some little ghosts to devour these kids’ spirits… hehe, this is getting more interesting…”

“Little friends, I am deeply grieved by what you have gone through.” Huang Xiaolong spoke seriously. “You are all benevolent spirits, so, given the chance, I will arrange for your reincarnation, striving to ensure that in your next life, you could live in luxury from the moment you are born.”

“Little Long, are they… are they all harmless ghosts?” After a brief period of adjustment and Huang Xiaolong’s reassuring presence, Cui Feiyan gained courage.

“Yes, these children were wronged by death. The underworld does not know they have died, so their spirits are stuck in the mortal world. Although they have some resentment, they are too young to harm people. They are all wanderers. But if they stay in the human world for too long, they will get jealous of the living and can’t help but harm people, eventually, they might turn into powerful demons.” Huang Xiaolong explained.

Then, without any delay, he took out the spirit lamp, opened the lid, “Little friends, come in, your nightmare is over, big brother is giving you a chance to be reborn!”

“Thank you, big brother ?Thank you, big brother ?”

With innocent and hearty laughter, one by one, the children turned into wisps of smoke and entered the soul lamp.

The lid was closed.

Strangely, after these spirits were collected, the ground floor of the shop suddenly warmed up and even the light seemed much brighter.

The heavy weight on Cui Feiyan’s heart vanished. She was still holding Huang Xiaolong’s arm, looking at him with tender eyes. “Little Long, although I don’t know what you are doing, I know… whatever you are doing, it must be very meaningful! You are rescuing them, aren’t you?”

“Er…Feiyan, I don’t think I’m as noble as you described…” Huang Xiaolong smiled effortlessly. “I came here, not just to rescue, but more importantly— to destroy!”
