Chapter 48: Capturing Ye at Night 4

  At this time I looked around and saw that the people of the sickle team were lying on the ground in a scattered manner, those severed limbs had disappeared, and the river of blood was also gone.

  I was surprised by the darkness of the night and wondered how this woman would dare to run alone in the mountains, so I asked: "Sister, it's so dark, what are you doing here all by yourself?"

  "I've come looking for my husband."

  "Who is your husband?"

  "My husband is the man you burned, and I am his wife Hua Jinlan."

  As soon as I heard the three words "Hua Jinlan", I suddenly lit up. Isn't she the one we're looking for tonight? Has she come to us automatically?

  "Hello, big sister," I said very politely to her. "Someone has been poisoned by your gu insect, and I've come all the way from Wu Village to find you."

  "I knew you were coming for me, they've already informed me," she said, and began to peel off the skin on her face, revealing red flesh under the firelight. She tossed the skin at me. I dodged to the side, and the skin landed on the ground, immediately turning into a puddle of bubbling black water. I stared at the ground in shock, not daring to turn my head back to look at that disgusting face.

  "Xiao Yu, don't you recognize your sister?" Her voice suddenly changed to the familiar tone of my older sister. I turned around abruptly, and the person in front of me indeed had a similar build and appearance to my older sister. Hallucination, hallucination, it must be a hallucination.

  All I saw was my elder sister picking up the sickle with a scarred face and walking towards me step by step.

  I feel very uneasy. My heart clearly knows that my older sister is thousands of miles away, but facing this fake older sister's provocation in front of me, I am completely helpless. I can only let her step by step push me forward. She takes a step forward, and I take a step back. She takes another step forward, and I take another step back. I keep taking steps back until my back is against the wall, unable to move any further. She bursts into laughter, "Look at you, do you still dare to cut off my head? You shouldn't have lived till today, you should have been with them during the ancestral worship in the villa. Look at you escaping, causing us so much trouble."

  She stood up straight and leaned in close to me, just ten centimeters away from my face, slowly peeling off her facial skin, especially the bloody and fleshy side, right in front of me. I felt my stomach churning with nausea, acid water gushing out.

  She looked at me with a nauseating gaze and burst out laughing, her two rows of teeth, which had already torn apart her lips, chattering up and down as she said: "Take another look, do you recognize me?"

  I blinked hard a few times, and the blurry face in front of me disappeared, replaced by a very familiar face. Narrow eyes, braided hair... it was Bai Huachien!

  It's really a waste of money! That chubby face, just like Xiaoyue's, is fluttering in front of me. Those dry and bony hands that stabbed me with a dagger are now holding a sickle and fluttering around.

  I understand now, everything from the beginning to the end was a trap set by Li Xiao Hao. I've been circling around and couldn't escape his grasp. Coming to find Hua Jinlan was a wrong decision, because the person who cast a spell on my sister is right in front of me - Bai Huacai, she's in cahoots with Li Xiao Hao.

  I only felt the sky spinning and the earth rotating before my eyes, and I was dizzy. Just when I was about to collapse, Bai Huoqian raised her sickle and slashed at my thigh, and a large amount of blood suddenly gushed out from the wound. The ancients said "hanging one's head on a beam, being stabbed in the thigh", it really is like that, the pain can force one's mind to clear up. A man cannot die without resistance under the hands of a female ghost, so I also grasped the sickle and slashed at her.

  She dodged to the side and jumped aside, smiling at me and saying: "I forgot, you're wearing a protective charm tonight." After finishing speaking, she instantly disappeared into the woods, leaving only me sitting alone against the tree.

  I don't know how long it took, but I tightly hugged the sickle and fell asleep. When I woke up, I was already lying in the guest room of the village chief's house.
