Chapter 75 Secret
Chapter 75 Secret
Two Li Mu's voices came from upstairs.
Yu Sheng was startled at first, and then felt a chill in her heart. She understood... Li Mu had seen a ghost.
Judging from what he shouted, the second voice was really Li Mu. He told himself to run away, he must be... trapped.
Yu Sheng sat in a wheelchair, filled with fear and confusion.
She knew that the most correct thing to do now was to leave here quickly.
However, at this moment, Yu Sheng suddenly felt... something seemed to have changed around him.
She looked around warily, but this sight really frightened her.
The surrounding environment has quietly changed without knowing when.
The road surface is cracking and becoming potholed and uneven.
Some humanoid outlines gradually appeared on the walls of the house, and the air was filled with a putrid smell.
"Tick tock..."
Yu Sheng suddenly turned around and looked into the village chief's house.
The strong smell of blood came out, and blood oozed from the floor and stairs...
Here we go...
That ghost... took action!
Yu Sheng's face turned pale with fear. Her eyes gradually moved up from the ground. There were drops of blood everywhere on the stairs and beams.
Moreover... the fishy and rotten smell in the village chief's house became even stronger.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound from upstairs.
"Ta-ta-"
Is it the sound of footsteps?
The one who came down...is it Li Mu?
Even Yu Sheng himself couldn't believe this guess.
Fear spread rapidly in her heart, eating away at her rationality bit by bit.
It's coming down...it's coming down!
Yu Sheng felt goosebumps appear on his arms.
The footsteps coming downstairs were getting closer and closer, like a hammer hitting her heart.
Finally, Yu Sheng couldn't bear it anymore. She bit her lips and turned her wheelchair to escape quickly.
Li Mu...I'm sorry...
……
But at this moment, Li Mu, who was in the village chief's room, did not see what Yu Sheng saw.
There was no change on the wall, no cracks on the floor, everything... seemed normal.
He sat leaning against the wooden door, and after shouting for her to leave, most of the fear in his heart disappeared.
Now all he could do was stay where he was and wait for death.
Or...find a way to deal with that ghost before it comes in and kills you.
Li Mu didn't know when it would come in. The strange thing was that it suddenly became very quiet outside. Yu Sheng's voice disappeared, and so did the ghost's voice.
But...he didn't dare to try to open the wooden door. Who knew if there would be a ghost standing at the door after opening it.
Let’s think about the clues you found...
The room was dark, but not so dark that he couldn't see the words clearly. Li Mu took out the pile of letters again and read them carefully.
Although the more he read, the angrier he became, this time, he found a new letter.
"...Sun Liang hasn't come back yet. If there is any news, I hope to let you know..."
This letter was not sent, and judging from its newness, it must be the latest of these letters.
But Li Mu was thoughtful, this name...
Sun Liang...Sun Liang...
Isn’t that middle-aged, taciturn passenger called Sun Liang?
etc!
Li Mu suddenly remembered...it seemed like he was the first one to discover this village.
Yes...it's him!
Sun Liang is originally from this village!
He died outside the village, and he was the real ghost in the woods at the end of the village!
So... he deliberately showed the way to let everyone come to the Witch Festival Village?
Did it turn out that the ghost was always around... Li Mu squeezed the letter tightly, his expression changing wildly.
No... I can't stay here any longer. Even if I encounter a ghost when I open the door, I have to take a gamble!
He must inform everyone of these things, the crimes committed by Sun Liang, the old village chief, and everyone in this village...!
……
The villagers headed outside the village. They did not think that the old village chief would get lost in the village, so they did not waste time in the village at all.
Lin Yan followed the large army and left.
There were only two people walking alone, one was Xiaobin and the other was Lu Bingyan.
Xiaobin looked at them with a strange expression.
Lu Bingyan went to the back mountain, saying that the village chief might be at the sacrifice site.
As for Su Qian, she came to an iron cage.
The iron cage was covered with black cloth, just like any other.
But Su Qian knows that she is different, because Yu Hanzhou said that she is different...
Su Qian carefully opened the black cloth, revealing the woman in the cage.
She seemed to be startled by the sudden light, and she huddled up and quickly shrank to a corner of the cage.
Her long hair was disheveled, her thin body was trembling, her face was dirty, and her clothes were dirty and torn, but maybe because of preconceptions, this time, Su Qian vaguely felt that her facial features were upright and delicate.
If cleaned, she shouldn't be ugly.
At least, it's different from most of the villagers in the village.
"Hello?"
Su Qian knelt down and approached her slowly and carefully.
The woman shrank back in horror, her dim eyes full of fear.
Su Qian suddenly didn't know how to communicate with her.
Now that things have happened, she can see the difference in her.
Compared with other women, she is not strongly aggressive, and...her eyes can see emotions.
She was afraid, she was terrified, not just like a living corpse like those women.
Thinking of this, Su Qian simply sat down and whispered: "You... also want to leave here, right?"
Her eyes seemed to light up, but she still huddled in the corner.
Su Qian didn't look at her much and said to herself: "I also want to leave here... If I'm lucky, I can leave today and never come back..."
Although she said so, Su Qian didn't have any hope in her heart.
Because...Yu Hanzhou is dead.
Even Yu Hanzhou died, and she didn't think she could survive.
Maybe...it's not necessarily that everyone will die this time.
Su Qian's thoughts are very negative. For others, Li Mu is the fulcrum, but for Su Qian, Yu Hanzhou is her fulcrum...
However, at this moment, another person's shadow suddenly flashed in her mind.
There was no emotion in his eyes, and he was not high-profile.
His name is Bai Yanliang, a person who... even Yu Hanzhou can't understand.
Maybe he can get out alive?
When Su Qian was in a state of confusion, she didn't realize that the woman in the cage was looking at her blankly.
Ever since Yu Hanzhou died, she has been easily distracted, and this time too.
When she finally came to her senses, what she saw was a desperate face with tears streaming down her face.
The tears washed away some of the stains on her face, revealing her fair skin.
Su Qian looked at her in disbelief.
At this time, the woman in the cage spoke.
"Help me...please...save me..."
It seemed that she hadn't spoken for a long time, and her voice was hoarse, but the shrill pleading in it made Su Qian's heart ache.
What on earth...has this woman experienced?
