Zhao Yao thought she would fall into the freezing well water, but she didn't.
Instead, my body felt soft.
Zhao Yao didn't bother to look, so she straightened up and looked up at the wellhead. After making sure that she couldn't climb out, she began to call for help. However, no one came until her voice was almost hoarse.
Now she was even more certain that Shangguan Shu had deliberately tricked her.
She began to curse Shangguan Shu.
She cursed loudly, but no one paid any attention to her.
The winter night was chilly, Zhao Yao's lips turned pale from the cold, and her teeth chattered as she hugged herself.
At this moment, the sweet voice of a young girl came to my ears, "Sister, are you cold? Hahahahahaha..."
Zhao Yao's eyes widened when she heard the voice, and her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
What…what…is this…
How could someone be talking in the well?!
There was a chilling feeling on her neck, and the voice also came from behind her. Zhao Yao's back stiffened and she didn't dare to look back.
The voice chattered non-stop, "Sister, why don't you look back at me, hahahahaha..."
At the end of each sentence, there is always laughter like bells and drums...
It's really scary.
Zhao Yao was so scared that she could only hold on, trying to distract herself, not listen or think about it, and then the ghost would not exist!
Zhao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly remembering that she hadn't fallen into the well. What on earth was down there?
As soon as she lowered her head... suddenly, a sharp explosion sounded throughout the bottom of the well.
“Ah!! Ghost!!!”
Countless blistered, swollen, and pale corpses were piled under her, and she was even sitting on the bloated belly of a female corpse.
The girl's voice sounded again.
"Sister, be gentle, don't crush my brother, hahahahaha..."
Zhao Yao's face turned pale, as if she was frozen in place, not daring to move.
She trembled and said, "You...you...don't...do anything stupid! Do you know...who...I am?"
"If you dare... to hurt... me... I will make sure your souls are shattered into pieces after I get out!!"
The girl was silent for a while, then said, "Sister, don't be afraid. Although we are ghosts, we are all good ghosts who have suffered injustice and humiliation. Because the underworld was overcrowded, the ghost messenger let us wait for a few more decades until there was room in the underworld, and then take us away."
"My father and mother were taken away a long time ago, because the eighteen levels of hell are empty."
Hearing that the girl no longer laughed strangely, but instead spoke coherently, Zhao Yao felt less afraid. She swallowed, slowly turned around and looked behind her.
What comes into view is a beautiful face with a smile.
Zhao Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
The stiff body softened.
Seeing that Zhao Yao was no longer afraid of her, the girl immediately beamed and chattered non-stop, "This well has been sealed for years. I haven't seen anyone new in years!"
"I haven't spoken in a long time!"
The girl wanted to act coquettishly with the older sister in front of her. Just as she moved closer to her, Zhao Yao avoided her with disgust. Humans and ghosts are different. If she was contaminated by ghost energy, it would affect her fortune and that would be bad.
The young girl didn't care about this, but instead said to herself, "Then I'll say this right here... Sister, you don't know how unreliable these ghost officials are. They said they would take us away a few days ago, but yesterday they heard that... there's a person here who doesn't know how to live or die and is going to offend a certain big boss. All the gods, Buddhas, Taoists, demons and ghosts in the whole Great Chu have fled..."
"So they're trying to escape too, and they're asking us to find a chance to escape as well... But our souls are locked at the bottom of the well. How can we escape?"
The girl held her chin, feeling very upset.
Zhao Yao was listening impatiently, but then she came up with an idea.
"I have a way to help you escape, but... I can't get out now!"
The girl's eyes lit up when she heard that, and she immediately said, "It's okay, it's okay, we can get you out!"
The corners of Zhao Yao's lips curled slightly.
Then, the girl summoned all the corpses, stacked them one on top of another to form a ladder, and sent Zhao Yao out.
The girl wanted to stick her head out of the well and say goodbye to Zhao Yao, but suddenly a lightning net covered the well mouth, which struck the girl and all the corpses down.
"ah!!"
"thump!"
"thump!"
As the girl fell, she still reminded Zhao Yao, "Sister, don't forget our agreement!"
The girl was innocent, but she never knew that she would meet the most heartless, selfish, and ruthless woman in the Great Chu State...
Agreement?
Zhao Yao sneered.
She was truly a fallen phoenix, worse than a chicken. To get out, she actually made a date with a ghost...
It's really ridiculous!
Humph, don’t you want to go out?
Well then, she will come to save them!
Zhao Yao released all her resentment for the night, turned around and went back to the villa, rummaged around in the villa, and finally found what she wanted... wine.
She found some cloth, rolled it into a big ball, poured wine on it, carried it to the wellhead, and took out the tinder from her arms.
The tiny flames lit up the night and also illuminated the cruel smile at the corner of her lips.
Zhao Yao lit the big ball, and the flames immediately burned along the surface of the ball. Zhao Yao raised her foot and kicked the ball to the bottom of the well.
"Hahahahahahahaha...you guys scared me!"
Flames burst out of the wellhead, and at the same time, horrifying screams came from the bottom of the well.
"Ahhh!!! Why is it on fire?!"
"It's so hot! It's burning me to death!!"
At the bottom of the well, amidst the scorching flames, a group of female ghosts wailed continuously. One of them said, "We are just a group of wandering ghosts not registered with the underworld. If our bodies are burned... then our souls will be scattered! No! I don't want my souls to be scattered!"
