The hair on the head was tangled and if observed closely, it appeared to be longer than the ears, which

is typically the length of a woman’s hair. However, upon closer inspection, the eyebrows, eyes, and

nose revealed the features of a man. Josh was taken aback for a moment.

Is this… a man with long hair?

Josh’s guess turned out to be right.

Throughout this time, the head remained silent, only staring at him. The words spoken by the head

were voiced through Selen’s mouth. Josh exclaimed, “You’re a man…” He could not quite explain why,

but something about the situation felt peculiar. Perhaps it was due to the head being attached to

Selen’s body. Selen, a young girl, possessed the head of an adult man. The combination was

undeniably unusual.

The head continued to gaze at Josh with a blank expression and muttered, “Wait, what am I doing

here… I’m searching for my body…” The sudden thought of finding his body crossed his mind,

prompting him to lower his gaze to his crotch.

At that moment, Josh sprang into action! With a handful of talismans in his hand, he swiftly moved

forward and firmly slapped Selen on the head. He had never used a talisman before, but having seen

Lilly do it multiple times, he followed suit. Surprisingly, the talisman adhered to Selen’s head!

A glimmer of excitement sparkled in Josh’s eyes. It was truly astonishing! These talismans did not

contain any adhesive and felt dry to the touch, yet they stuck effortlessly after being applied like this…

Surprisingly, the talisman stuck to the head without any explanation. Josh could not find the reason

behind it. However, pondering this question ignited a growing sense of courage within him.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Josh mustered his hidden composure and inquired, “Who are

you? Where do you come from? And how did you die?”

Drake, standing nearby, raised an eyebrow, puzzled by Josh’s question. When Lilly posed those same

questions, they sounded profound, but coming from his younger brother, they seemed more like a child

imitating an adult.

To his astonishment, the head began to chatter and swiftly lunged toward Josh! Caught off guard, Josh

had already placed talismans on the head, so how could it still move?

Upon closer examination, he exclaimed, “I used the wrong talisman!” Unknowingly, he had affixed an

evil-repelling talisman meant for warding off malevolent spirits onto Selen’s head. As a result, the head

emerged from Selen’s body and lunged directly at him!

Panicking, Josh attempted to mimic his younger sister’s elegant and skillful talisman application, but his

actions became clumsy and uncoordinated. In his haste, the head managed to fall onto his head.

Ultimately, a bunch of talismans ended up hidden under Josh’s hat, while the head was flung away.

“Whoosh!”

The head soared through the air, heading straight for Drake’s head. Unaware of the approaching head,

Drake could not see it. However, when he noticed Josh charging toward him, wielding a frying pan, he

instinctively understood that the ghost must be targeting him.

At that moment, Drake no longer cared about his image.

He ran for his life.

“Bang!”

Josh’s frying pan struck the tree where Drake had been leaning against a moment ago.

Drake’s expression spoke volumes… How audacious of Josh to attempt to strike his brother.

If Drake had not run swiftly, he would have been the one suffering from a concussion right now!

Angrily, Drake retorted, “Can’t you see where you’re swinging that thing?”

Josh pursued the head, shouting, “I knew you’d run!”

Drake responded with a silent nod. Yes, this was undoubtedly his real brother!

Josh locked his gaze on the head. It dawned on him that he had been just one step away from being

courageous, from taking the initiative to attack. In moments of inaction, he was often frightened by

ghosts. But when he seized the initiative to strike, the fear seemed to dissipate.

“Stop! Don’t run!” Josh yelled.

The head seemed slightly out of breath. It could not take hold of Josh’s body because Josh had

talismans all over himself. Why would it stay there? It needed to escape!

The head made a desperate dash, but suddenly, the maze enchantment surrounding them lit up, and

Josh’s spirit compass on the ground began to radiate a bright light. Simultaneously, a disheveled net

hanging from a tree blocked the head’s path, preventing its escape.

The woods instantly transformed into a confining cage.

Josh wore a satisfied smile and remarked, “Ha… you underestimated me!”

He would not have dared to act so boldly if he hadn’t been fully prepared. At this moment, several

drafts slipped out of Josh’s schoolbag.

Curiosity piqued, Drake examined them and discovered that they depicted a small forest on the paper,

with the area meticulously measured, geometric shapes and 3D models sketched out, and the bottom

densely filled with formulas.

It seemed that every possible route had been calculated. For each xo.com fast updatespecific

position where the head might try to escape, the probability of it taking direction A and the

corresponding talisman to be used, or the probability of it escaping through direction B and the

appropriate talisman to be applied… it was all calculated.

This was not merely metaphysics for capturing ghosts; it was statistical analysis for capturing ghosts!

Meanwhile, Josh was darting through the woods in pursuit of severed heads!

On the other side, Selen had regained consciousness. She gazed around in a daze and for the first

time noticed Drake, who happened to be nearby.

Perhaps due to her recent awakening, her body felt weak, and she suddenly felt lightheaded. Her legs

gave way, causing her to stumble and fall directly toward Drake…

Drake cast a glance at her, his expression…

After carefully analyzing the situation, Drake took two firm steps back.

With a loud thud, Selen landed on the ground precisely, without even brushing against the corner of

Drake’s clothes. However, she had lost consciousness and no longer had any awareness.

During his busy activities, Josh clicked his tongue and remarked, “You’re so cold-hearted. Can’t you

just help her up?”

Drake retorted, “Why don’t you do it?”

“Bang!”

Josh swung the frying pan forcefully, striking the head.

He exclaimed with excitement, “I did it!”

The head followed a parabolic trajectory, flying toward Drake with uncanny precision.

At that moment, Drake witnessed the horrifying sight!

A head covered in blood!

Its face was mangled and bloody, with two lifeless, fish-like eyeballs staring directly at him. Everything

was grotesque!

Drake was stunned.
