Chapter 14: Gray Immortal Seeks Revenge

  Northeastern Wild Fairy Tales Record

  As the loud banging sounds came from outside the door, every member of Old Cui's family felt their heart beating faster with each bang. Nighttime was already when people were most likely to feel fear, and it was even more so since they had just killed a ghost, and what's more, my second uncle said that there might be ghosts coming to seek revenge.

  Now hearing the banging sound outside, asking who it is but no one answers, just constant banging.

  "Bang... Bang..."

  The continuous sound was like a series of heavy punches hitting the hearts of Old Cui's family, the old lady and daughter-in-law on the kang were already embracing each other, their eyes revealing fear as they carefully watched the door.

  Lao Cui was also standing outside the house, not daring to take another step forward. He was still shaking and asking in his original place, but his voice had already trembled.

  "Who... who is it?"

  The person outside didn't respond and just kept knocking on the door.

  This old saying is really good, the older people get, the more afraid of death they become. Old Cui was also a sixty or seventy year old man, although he usually said that this life has been lived to its fullest, but when things happened, he still got scared.

  The old man turned around and went back into the house, took a look at his wife and daughter-in-law huddled together on the kang, as well as me holding the white fox on the other end of the kang. Looking at the old and young on the kang, suddenly the masculine aura that had disappeared from Old Cui's heart for many years rose up again. Holding onto a cane, he quickly made his way to the outer room and shouted at the person still knocking on the door: "You son of a bitch! I know who you are! Tonight, let's see what you can do! I won't open the door for you, even if you die from exhaustion!"

  As Old Cui shouted loudly and scolded, it was strange that the knocking sound outside stopped at this time.

  The room fell silent for a moment after the knock on the door stopped, and the house was plunged into a dead silence, with only a few people's breathing sounds, and the sound of snow and wind outside.

  At this time I was also a little scared and asked: "What's wrong, who knocked on the door?"

  Old Chui hastily turned his head to signal me not to speak. I and Mrs. Old Chui looked out through the window between the outer room and inner room.

  At this glance, suddenly all the hairs on his head stood up as he stared at Old Cui's head. It turned out that someone was standing behind Old Cui without him knowing when.

  An old woman in a grey cloak and apron, wearing what looked like a dogskin hat, stood behind Old Chui's head. Her face was as dry and wrinkled as if it had been folded a hundred times, with all the wrinkles shrinking her whole face together. Her skin was so dry that she looked like a mummy, giving off an eerie feeling.

  At this time, Old Cui's wife was trembling with her finger pointing at the old lady. Old Cui looked at his wife pointing at him, not knowing what to do, but after seeing her expression, it seemed like he thought of something.

  His body slowly began to turn around, and just as he saw the old lady, a crutch was thrown over, hastily running back, entering the inner room again, closing the door, staring intently at the old lady standing on the ground outside, receiving his crutch. Originally an extremely terrifying face, now with the old lady slowly walking in, illuminated by the lamp light, her face became even more ominous.

  At this time, Old Cui's head was afraid to hide in the inner room. The old lady's face was squeezed together, looking at Old Cui's head, her voice was like a coin rubbing against glass, and she said in a harsh tone: "Open the door, I want to go in. I want to know how my child died, open the door!"

  "Your kid, I haven't seen him, go find him at another house, he's not here. What are you doing out so late!" Old Cui heard that they were looking for a child and hastily opened his mouth to refuse, saying that the child was not there, but in his heart, he understood that they were looking for the ash immortal that my second uncle and Cui Xiaobo had buried.

  "I've looked everywhere, no one else has them, I smelled that my child was in your house, open the door, I'll just go in and take a look, if not, I'll leave! My child is missing!" The old lady said slowly.

  "It's really none, hurry up and go, there is no one in my house, hurry up and find someone else!" At this time, Old Mrs. Cui sitting on the kang also cried out.

  Old Mrs. Cui spoke, and the old lady in the outer room raised her eyes to look at the kang, and she also saw me and the white fox. The white fox had been struggling to get out since the old lady entered the house, and I couldn't help but hold her tightly in my arms.

  Crouching on the edge of the wall at the corner of the kang, staring intently at everything happening in the house, the white fox's body temperature also gave me some comfort.

  This scene has indeed brought a great shock to my small heart, even more shocking than the last time I saw the corpses of Dog Egg and Dog Egg's wife.

  This is not the calmness of a normal person's death. Yes, the expression after a normal person dies is calm, but this scene makes me unable to understand and know the reason behind it.

  After Dog Egg passed away, I knew he was dead. However, this old lady is not a human being now, but what I see is still a person, an elderly grandma-like person.

  But at this moment, in this house, no matter what kind of person, or whether it's a person or not, everything seems so powerless and pale.

  I don't know how to describe this eerie scene, an old lady searching for her child, logically speaking, seeing such a thing would evoke feelings of pity and sympathy, yet at this moment it's so terrifying, such deep-seated fear.

  I cowered in the corner of the wall, tightly hugging the white fox, watching, listening, thinking...

  The white fox seemed to sense my fear at this time, and its struggling body also became gentle, with only a pair of small eyes open staring at the old woman in the outer room.

  Since Old Mrs. Cui finished speaking without finding the child she was looking for, and even cried while saying it, her tone which was originally a bit pleading suddenly became sharp and shrill, jumping up and down on her small feet as she shouted: "Don't cry, I'll have you all buried with my child soon! You actually killed my child! Don't think you can get away with it today, not one of you will have an easy time! My poor child, why are you so unlucky?!"

  When the old lady spoke, at this time, the whole Cui family knew that this was the truth, and it was a family of ghosts coming to take revenge. The fear in their hearts also increased to an extreme point, and everyone's heart was clenched, all waiting for my second uncle and Cui Xiaobo to return quickly. Otherwise, this family would really lose their lives in this house.

  The old lady finished speaking, and then she saw that the whole Cui family didn't say a word, and Old Cui's head was leaning against the door, not letting her in. Seeing that they didn't take her words seriously, she became even more angry.

  A pair of small feet, like the bound feet of ancient times, pointed and touching the ground, with the heel raised off the ground. The person was jumping up and down, cursing loudly: "You old thing, open the door for me! If you don't open it, I'll kill all of you! There's a beginning to every injustice and a mastermind behind every debt. I know it was you who killed my child with explosives. Today, as long as you give me your life, I'll spare your whole family. But if you still refuse to open the door, I'll kill everyone in your household, not leaving a single one alive!"

  In the end, the old lady was staring at Lao Cui's head with a somewhat crazed look in her eyes. For a moment, Lao Cui couldn't tell whether to believe what the gray immortal old lady said or not. But he wasn't ready to die yet. Anyway, no matter what, this door cannot be opened. However, if the gray immortal old lady stays here all the time, who knows what changes will occur and what other things might happen?

  At this time, Old Cui's head was at the door, stretching his hand into his bosom. I saw him take out a Fu character and after looking at it for a few moments, he bit open his own finger with one ruthless bite. A stream of fresh blood flowed out from the wound, and Old Cui hastily used the small Fu character to catch the flowing blood on its surface.

  At this time, the old lady Hui outside the door saw Lao Cui taking out the Fu character and was frightened to take a step back. However, after retreating one step, she saw Lao Cui's next action, which was like someone had stepped on her tail, and with both palms facing the door, she slammed it shut with a loud bang!

  "Bang... Bang... Open the door for me, if you don't open it, I'll go in, I'm risking my life, I also want to go in..." Old Lady Hui Xian shouted loudly while banging on the door.

  It looks like it might really come in, because although Old Cui is holding the door with all his might, he doesn't know where that gray immortal got such great strength from. As she slammed the door again and again, one of the doors was shaking violently, as if an entire wall was about to be smashed down by her.

  Lao Cui did not look at the old lady, but instead evenly applied all the blood to the Fu character. Afterwards, he suddenly stuck it onto the glass in front of the old lady's face.

  Just as Lao Cui had finished sticking it on, he heard the old lady from next door retreat four or five steps back, as if she had been heavily struck.

  After she stood firm, Grey Fairy Old Lady gritted her teeth and said: "Good, you actually dare to use the character 'Fu' to hit me. It seems that someone is giving you advice from behind your back. I'd like to see what kind of person would even think of using the inverted 'Fu'."

  Dao Fu, Dao Fu, although the meanings are different, but the effects are not far apart, both have the effect of suppressing evil spirits. The Northeast Wild Immortal, although it has become a spirit and can cultivate to seek to be listed in the immortal class, but due to some reason, this life cannot be listed in the immortal class, the reason for this is not stated here, and will be introduced later.

  And then the old lady was shocked by the power of Daofu, standing still for a moment, vowing to kill the entire Cui family, while the old lady and young daughter-in-law on the kang were even more frightened as they looked at the old lady outside.

  "Old Qiu, think of a way quickly! What are we going to do? When is your second brother coming back? If he doesn't come back soon, we'll be killed by her!"

  After finishing speaking, she looked at the old lady with a gloomy face and a ferocious expression, her complexion was also ferocious.

  At this moment, the old gray fairy lady glanced outside and then looked at the door that blocked her way with a fierce expression, as if she had made some decision. Her small eyes stared fixedly at the inverted Fu character on the door.

  It seems to be hesitant in her heart, but it seems to have made up her mind. Originally, the toe that was lit up, at this moment, she saw her squat down with both legs, and her toes fiercely pointed at the ground, making a strong effort to tap once, and the whole person rushed towards the door like a cannonball.

  The whole person's speed was extremely fast, and behind her, it seemed like there were more than a dozen people pushing her with all their might, charging towards the gate guarded by Old Cui.

  Four pairs of eyes, no, five pairs of eyes were staring intently at the old lady's figure as she rushed up, worried that she might not be able to open the door.
