My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 1257: Ghost City



"Chen Tianlong, what’s this kid saying?"

Lin Wushuang was puzzled and asked.

"I don’t know either, but he should be from the Wolf Race. This kid isn’t simple," Chen Tianlong thought for a moment and said, "Let’s keep moving forward and see what else is happening. After all, we’re hungry and need to find something to eat."

Lin Wushuang nodded. Anyway, the child wasn’t heavy, so she simply carried him as they walked together.

The child clearly liked Lin Wushuang very much and even seemed a bit cheeky. He kept grabbing at Lin Wushuang’s chest from time to time, then leaned in to give her a smack on her face.

Chen Tianlong was speechless. His own wife was being taken advantage of. If the kid weren’t so small, Chen Tianlong would have thrown him to the ground. Damn it, even I don’t dare to grab, and you just come and grab as you please.

Lin Wushuang was a bit embarrassed initially but figured the kid was only about five or six years old and probably didn’t know better, so she ignored it.

The three quickly arrived in front of a small food street, where surprisingly there was a shop open, specifically a noodle shop.

Chen Tianlong chuckled bitterly, knowing this shop must be peculiar. The entire town, apart from corpses, was empty. Over here, there were no corpses, but it was still deserted, and suddenly a shop selling food appeared. Who could believe that?

Evidently, Lin Wushuang also thought there must be something amiss, but with Chen Tianlong around, she wasn’t afraid.

At the entrance, the shop wasn’t lit with electric lights but rather various oil lamps and a few sparsely placed candles. Inside, a woman in her thirties was cooking noodles while a man of the same age was wiping down tables.

Judging from the utensils on the tables, someone had eaten here recently. Chen Tianlong smiled wryly. These two people were putting on quite the act, and he had to admire their dedication.

"Boss, two or three bowls of pork noodle soup, mildly spicy," Chen Tianlong said.

"Alright, you three came just in time. Almost everyone on the street has gone back to their rooms to rest. I heard that people from the Wolf Race will appear tonight. This town is called Wolf Avoidance Town. Every year around this time, packs of Wolf Race people show up. There’s a rule in the town that if you close up before nightfall, you’ll survive the night," the boss explained.

"I see."

Chen Tianlong deliberately nodded. Only a child would believe these words. It was impossible to fool Chen Tianlong.

When they reached the town, it wasn’t even dark yet, and so many people had already died.

Besides, do this couple think they have nine lives? Everyone else closes their doors, yet they light oil lamps just to stay open. Who would dare to eat here?

"Young man, you don’t believe me, do you?" The woman saw through Chen Tianlong and spoke directly.

Chen Tianlong paused. This woman was indeed skilled, seeing through everything, so he smiled and said, "You should know what I’m thinking. That much should be clear to you."

"Hehe, to be honest, you’re probably wondering why we’re the only two people left in the town."

"Aren’t you?"

Chen Tianlong didn’t answer directly but instead asked.

"You’re mistaken. The reason we’re still here is because of some werewolf." With that, the woman ran the Heart Method and displayed her strength, which turned out to be at the Celestial Dao Seven Stars level in front of Chen Tianlong.

Chen Tianlong’s eyes widened. He never expected to meet such an expert in a small town.

"Hehe, having strength doesn’t prove you’re here to deal with werewolves; you might also be from the Wolf Race," Chen Tianlong analyzed.

"You don’t have to believe me, but I’ll advise you no matter who you are, it’s best not to go anywhere tonight. Stay here, or else you and your wife, along with your child, will die in this town," the woman warned.

"Why do you say that?" Chen Tianlong smiled faintly, not taking her words seriously.

At this moment, the man who had been wiping the tables came over and coldly smiled, "Because only our house is safe. Have you noticed anything different about our house? These setups are actually an array, commonly known as a Wolf-Defending Array. As long as you stay inside obediently until dawn, nothing will happen."

Chen Tianlong frowned, somewhat dubious, but Lin Wushuang nodded, indicating for Chen Tianlong to stay.

Chen Tianlong saw Lin Wushuang’s concern, smiled bitterly, and chose to trust the hostess.

Soon, three bowls of steaming pork noodle soup were served. At this moment, Chen Tianlong placed one bowl in front of the child and said, "Wait a bit before eating, be careful not to burn yourself."

The child surprisingly nodded, then blew on the bowl before starting to eat.

Chen Tianlong and Lin Wushuang widened their eyes. The hot soup was slurped down by the kid as if he didn’t feel the heat.

If it were any other child, they’d definitely be crying out in pain from the heat, but not this one.

At this time, the hostess’s gaze fell on the child, and she frowned, asking, "How come you two, so young, have such a big child? Did you marry early!"

"Hehe, sister, he’s not our child; we picked him up on the street," Lin Wushuang replied truthfully.

"Picked him up, what!"

The hostess jumped in fright, quickly flashed over, and grabbed the child’s pulse, then exclaimed in shock, "Throw him out, otherwise..."

"Haha..."

Before she could finish, three people appeared at the door.

To be precise, it was two burly men and a young man wearing a hat with his head lowered.

Chen Tianlong immediately recognized him; it was the man he’d met in the hotel elevator. He had thought him strange before, and now it was clear, this guy was definitely from the Wolfman Race.

Evidently, the man in the hat didn’t enter further, standing at the door, while the other two, clearly from the Wolfman Race, had blood-red eyes hinting at a bloody sight in the night.

"I never expected the prince of the Wolfman Race to actually break the Wolf-Defending Array. Let’s see what you couples can do. Hand over your lives," said the Right Protector of the Wolfman Race. It was the Wolfman Race provoked by scoundrels, leading to the downfall of the Wolfman King. Only he managed to escape to Wolf Avoidance Town.

Today marks the third day the Wolf King is in town, and the child Lin Wushuang brought was the prince of the Wolfman Race, only he could break the Red Dust Couple’s Wolf-Defending Array.

The Red Dust Couple, a couple brought together by love amidst the earthly world, ten years ago, the two fell in love and bore a child, but they were killed by people from the Wolfman Race. For this reason, every year at this time, they would come here, just waiting for the Wolfman Race to appear.

As for what happened within the Wolfman Race, the Red Dust Couple didn’t know, their purpose was simply to wipe out the Wolfman Race.

Over the years, they killed many from the Wolfman Race and actively sought out their whereabouts, but mostly found no trace.
