The first purging was very successful, but it didn't give them much practical experience. All it took was a tribute talisman to settle it.

Chinese New Year is in 2 months. If he can finish the main mission before then, it can be considered solving a huge problem. Shang Ke decided to purge the second evil ghost 2 days later.

A depressive ghost is wandering near a residential building on the outskirts. Before the depressive ghost died, he was only 25. He was depressed, pessimistic, and misanthropic, and ultimately chose to suicide by jumping off the building. The place where he suicide was the residential building where he had rented a room.

It's often said that for people who suicide after they die, their souls keep repeating the suicide process. This depressive ghost wasn't an exception. The only difference was that each time he suicide, the depressive qi on him would grow stronger proportionally, thereby affecting other living people.

10% of the people living in this building have symptoms of depression because of him. Within the last 2 years, 7 people have died by suicide successively. For a residential building that only has 100+ people living in it, such a high suicide rate was abnormal.

As the depressive qi continues to increase and adds on the resentful qi of the other suiciders (the resentful qi would accumulate on the depressive ghost for the people who suicide due to being affected by the depressive qi), this depressive ghost would certainly turn into a vengeful ghost one day, changing from passively harming people to actively harming people.

During a night with strong wind, Shang Ke and Shao Feidu arrived at the residential building. They had just gotten out of the car when they saw a body falling from the top of the building. It fell heavily onto the ground with a snapping sound and broke into a cloud of blood mist. Then, the blood mist slowly condensed into a thin ghost figure, lying on the ground without moving. It was the depressive ghost they were looking for.

Shang Ke contemplated. Fortunately, this fellow is only a stream of consciousness and not real. If he was real and the terrible sight of him falling down the building was seen, it would probably scare his Dudu.

The two of them walk towards the depressive ghost who was acting "dead". Shao Feidu pulled Shang Ke's coat with one hand while he held an exorcism talisman in the other hand. He followed behind Shang Ke step after step with a 'ready for combat' expression.

When they came closer, the depressive ghost suddenly disappeared from the ground.

Shang Ke and Shao Feidu looked around trying to find him

At this moment, a strange noise suddenly sounded from above. Shang Ke had thought that the depressive ghost had started the second round of jumping. He had yet to lift his head when he was pulled aside strongly. Then, he heard a thump and felt a few drops of sticky substance splashing onto his face. Shang Ke stretched his hand to wipe it away. It was scarlet red blood.

This is not an illusion!

Shang Ke had wanted to turn back and look but was instead hugged tightly in Shao Feidu's embrace. "Keke, don't be afraid."

Shang Ke listened to Shao Feidu's violent heartbeat and his heart softened. This man is clearly so scared himself but still comes to comfort him.

Shang Ke hugged the man before him tightly kissed his face, and said gently, "I'm not afraid. Why would I be afraid when I have you protecting me?"

Hearing him say this, Shao Feidu suddenly felt more heroic and his courage soared.

Shang Ke turned his head over to look and finally understood what happened. What fell just now was not the depressive ghost at all, but a living person. Of course, the living person has already turned into a dead person. He was lying on a spot less than 1 meter away from the two of them, half his face smashed into a bloody mess. The other half of his face was facing them and his pair of blood-red eyes stared at them, unable to close in peace.
