However, Zheng Ling was not actually that scared of the unusual situation outside the door at that time.

After all, this was not the first time she had encountered such a situation.

She and her husband often have conflicts. Arguing is a minor matter, they even fight.

Especially since they both don't get home until night, and the sound insulation in the old community is not very good, so if they quarrel or fight, the sound will quickly spread to the surrounding neighborhood.

Some neighbors who are thin-skinned and really can't stand the noise at night will, like now, bang on Zheng Ling's door a few times, and then run away quickly when Zheng Ling and others go to open the door.

This is a way to remind Zheng Ling not to disturb others.

Zheng Ling thought the people knocking on the door were those shameless neighbors again. Seeing that there was no one outside, she cursed at the empty door.

"Knock, knock, knock! Knock on your head! You've got nothing to do all day! If you come knocking on my door again in the middle of the night, I'll chop off your hands!"

Generally speaking, people who dare not show up in public are not only thin-skinned but also timid.

Zheng Ling had already had an argument with her husband and was feeling angry. Now she had an outlet for her anger and scolded the unknown neighbor harshly.

Finally, he felt relieved after cursing and closed the door, but when he turned around, he was shocked!

Qi Wei saw that her husband was in an extremely strange posture!

He stood in front of the sofa, his hands tightly grasping his neck, his eyes wide open with horror, staring straight ahead, as if there was something extremely terrifying in front of him.

But Zheng Ling subconsciously glanced at the direction he was looking at, but found nothing.

For a moment she wasn't sure if her husband was pretending to scare her or what.

Although she had just had a fight with her husband, he was her man after all, so Zheng Ling still walked over with a worried look on her face.

"Lao Fang, what's wrong with you?"

Lao Fang couldn't say a word, his hands were still tightly pinching his neck, his face flushed red.

Zheng Ling then realized that he was probably not trying to scare her on purpose, and she began to panic.

"What the hell is wrong with you?!"

Zheng Ling tried to reach out and pull Lao Fang's arm down.

But when she approached Lao Fang, she felt a biting chill coming from beside her.

The temperature in Jiangyu is still quite high in October, but Zheng Ling actually shivered from the cold!

But she didn't have time to study this strange chill for a moment. She just wanted to quickly pull Lao Fang's hand away to prevent him from strangling himself to death.

However, no matter how hard she tried, Lao Fang's hands seemed to be welded to his neck and she couldn't pull them off!

Zheng Ling became increasingly aware that something was wrong.

She had lived for several dozen years, and even if she hadn't seen many things with her own eyes, she had heard about them from others.

She quickly realized that her husband might have been possessed by an evil spirit, so she ran to the bedroom and dug out a jade pendant that had been hidden in the bottom of the box.

She had bought the jade pendant from a temple many days ago and had it blessed by a master, who said it could ward off evil spirits and drive away ghosts.

Zheng Ling didn't know whether the jade pendant was useful or not, so she could only give it a try.

Fortunately, she seemed to be lucky, and that master was also a real master.

After she put the jade pendant on her husband Lao Fang, his stiff arms finally relaxed.

Even at that moment, Zheng Ling seemed to hear a creepy and shrill scream.

She got goosebumps from the sound and ran to her husband trembling to seek safety.

Her husband, who had just escaped death, was now sitting on the ground gasping for breath. After confirming that it was the jade pendant that saved him, he took it for himself without thinking and angrily scolded Zheng Ling for not taking out the jade pendant earlier.
