Following the lingering scent of resentment, Nan Yuanman found the banquet hall on the first floor from the sixteenth floor.
It's still early, and the banquet hall is still being set up and is not yet open to the public. People are coming and going frequently, and it's quite noisy inside.
Nan Yuanman's chubby little hands tugged at the door, and she slowly peeked out with her round little head, cautiously and carefully observing the staff inside.
She could smell that the lingering resentment here was the strongest.
Strangely, the staff in the banquet hall were all normal, with no ghostly aura or resentment lingering on them.
Nan Yuanman frowned deeply. Was she too late? Had the vengeful ghost escaped?
Nan Yuanman was worried and afraid that the vengeful spirits might be hiding in the shadows and harming the staff, so she moved in small steps, crouched down, and the dog sneaked in furtively.
When Jiang Xinxin secretly followed, she happened to witness Nan Yuanman sneaking in, a scene full of illicit thrills.
She blinked, instinctively followed, and turned on the recording function on her watch. Finally, she caught Nan Yuanman doing something bad, and she was going to record the scene of Nan Yuanman doing something bad to show her uncle!
She refused to believe that her uncle would still like her after seeing the video of Nan Yuanman being so naughty and disobedient!
At that time, Nan Yuanman had already arrived outside the restroom in the banquet hall.
As soon as she approached the men's restroom, she smelled a strong, putrid stench emanating from it, accompanied by the clattering and crashing of things on the floor.
Just then, the banquet hall was being sound-tested, and the loud music drowned out the sounds coming from the men's restroom.
"Oh no! The people inside are in danger!" Nan Yuanman stared at the bathroom door, which was emanating ghostly energy. Her face turned serious, and she pulled out a copper coin sword with one hand and a talisman with the other before rushing inside.
Dog Egg, who had just returned from a stroll: "!!!"
He chased after them in a panic: "Yuanman! You can't go in there!"
That's the men's restroom! It's not a place for young girls!!
Nan Yuanman ignored him and burst through the door, only to see a young man lying on the ground a meter away from the entrance.
A vengeful ghost, brimming with ghostly energy, was clinging to the young man. The ghost's death was extremely gruesome, with large areas of corrosive wounds on its body, almost no good flesh on its face, and its eyeballs protruding from their sockets, hanging out by a thin tendon, swaying constantly with the young man's movements.
When Nan Yuanman saw the vengeful ghost's bloodshot eyes, his chubby face became extremely serious. This vengeful ghost had been corrupted by resentment and had lost its mind!
The young man was struggling desperately, his face filled with despair, yet he dared not open his mouth to ask for help, for fear that if he did, the eyeball would fall into his mouth.
When Nan Yuanman rushed in, the young man thought he was saved, but when he saw that small figure, his face turned even more desperate.
But he still risked eating her eyeballs and shouted, "Kid! There's a ghost! Run!"
The music outside was too loud, and Nan Yuanman didn't hear what the young man was saying for a moment. She thought he was screaming for help in fear, so she quickly comforted him: "Big brother, don't be afraid! I'm coming to save you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed forward, gripping the copper coin sword.
Young man: "!!!"
I told you to run! Not to come and die!
He closed his eyes weakly.
Forget it, I'll just wait to die.
Hopefully, when the ghost tries to eat him, the child will realize what's happening and run away!
Nan Yuanman caught a glimpse of his closed eyes, and her heart sank. Oh no! He's passed out! She had to act quickly!
Sensing danger, the vengeful ghost roared and leaped swiftly from the young man's body. Filled with rage at being disturbed while eating, sharp black fingernails sprouted from its hands as it attacked Nan Yuanman.
The vengeful ghost, having lost its mind, was extremely aggressive. Fortunately, Nan Yuanman had many talismans in his hand, was small, and moved nimbly; otherwise, if he had been caught by its claw, he would have been severely injured, if not killed.
When Gou Dan rushed in, he saw the little girl being forced onto the sink by the vengeful ghost. Her carefully crafted look was slightly disheveled, and the bag slung across her waist was being corrupted by the resentment, with the strap broken, which she was clutching tightly in her hand.
Nan Yuanman was furious. She stood on the sink, her copper coin sword pointing at the vengeful ghost below: "I'm angry! You ruined the bag Grandpa made for me! You bad guy!"
After roaring, Nan Yuanman charged at the vengeful ghost again, and Gou Dan quickly floated over to help her.
He is a living soul and cannot mobilize ghostly power like a vengeful ghost, but... his fists are not to be underestimated!
With Gou Dan's help, Nan Yuanman finally managed to dispel most of the resentment from the vengeful ghost, and the ghost gradually regained its rationality.
He was pinned down by Gou Dan, howling, "I was wrong! I was wrong! Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me!"
Nan Yuanman squatted in front of him, tilting her head to look at him. Only after she saw that the vengeful ghost's face was bruised and swollen, and the red in his eyes had faded, returning to the clarity he had before his death, did she speak up to stop Gou Dan: "Alright, Gou Dan, he's regained his senses, stop hitting him."
Dog Egg took a deep breath and released the vengeful ghost with a gloomy face.
The vengeful ghost lay on the ground for a few seconds before slowly getting up. It hissed in shock, covered its face, and took a few steps back in fear, stammering, "Who are you? Why did you suddenly hit me? I don't know you! This is so mean, waaaaaah..."
Before she could finish speaking, the vengeful ghost suddenly burst into loud wails, crying so pitifully and aggrievedly: "I was sleeping peacefully at home, why did you hit me? Waaaaaah, it hurts so much, waaaaah..."
Nanmanyuan: "???"
Dog Egg: "...??"
The little girl went from shock to bewilderment. Looking at the nearly broken vengeful ghost in front of her, she was at a loss for what to do: "Oh dear, don't cry! We didn't mean to hit you. You ate people first, and I hit you to save you!"
"What cannibalism! Don't accuse me! I'm a law-abiding citizen. Even when I'm starving, I'd rather eat dirt than eat people!" The vengeful ghost's good eye bulged into the shape of a fried egg as it pleaded. "Besides, I'm a human! How could I possibly eat people!"
Nan Yuanman was stunned and subconsciously looked at Gou Dan. Gou Dan frowned and realized that something was wrong with the vengeful ghost in front of him.
He said in a deep voice, "You are already dead."
The vengeful ghost cried and retorted, "You're the one who's dead! I'm perfectly fine! Why are you cursing me for no reason!"
Dog Egg's brows furrowed with annoyance as he roughly lifted the vengeful ghost from the ground and made him face the bathroom mirror: "Look at yourself, can you even be considered alive?"
The vengeful ghost instinctively looked in the mirror, and when he saw his reflection, he screamed, "Ah—!!!"
The young man, who had been lying on the ground resigned to his fate, suddenly realized he wasn't dead and opened his eyes to peek out: "Aaaaaaahh ...
Screams comparable to those of a tenor echoed throughout the restroom.
The vengeful ghost rolled its eyes and fainted from fright.
The young man looked at the man carrying the vengeful ghost, whose face was half covered by black and red threads, making him look even more like an evil spirit. His face turned pale, and he was so scared that he almost peed himself.
Good heavens! Another new ghost has arrived! Heaven is going to kill him!
Damn it! How come he hasn't passed out yet?!
You're so dense! You're going to faint!
Nan Yuanman then remembered that there was still someone lying on the ground, and quickly asked, "Big brother, are you alright..."
"Ah—!" The young man shuddered in fright, his eyes rolled back, and he finally fainted, a happy smile involuntarily appearing on his lips.
Finally, I don't have to face ghosts anymore.
Nanmanyuan: "!!!"
She quickly ran over and pinched his philtrum: "Big brother, cheer up!"
Just then, Jiang Xinxin's excited voice rang out from outside: "Uncle, I just saw Nan Yuanman run in from here, and I heard screams inside. She must be doing something bad in there!"
