But mental stress is one thing, and physical function is another. After so many days, how could a few people endure it?
Especially Leng Shugen and Ma Dahua in the west room, they slept like dead dogs and even snored.
Leng Tiezhu and Shi Sanyue in the east room also gradually became drowsy. Shi Sanyue was less drowsy, so he was the first to wake up.
"Ah?" Leng Tiezhu woke up instantly, raised his head in panic, looked around, and then pricked up his ears to listen hard.
"Did you hear anything?" Shi Sanyue pulled the quilt tightly and leaned hard against the cold iron pillar.
Because they had planned to move to the ear room after Leng You came back, they moved all the bedding there. However, the situation suddenly changed and they had to move back to the east room.
There was only an old quilt left in the room for Leng You to cover himself with. They did not dare to enter the ear room, so they had to make do with this quilt which was much smaller than the normal size.
Leng Tiezhu has become more and more disgusted with Shi Sanyue since he became the village chief. Even though he has become a little better in the past two years as he has grown older, he has not used a blanket to cover himself with her for many years.
So even though the environment was special, Leng Tiezhu had been extremely annoyed since Shi Sanyue had been leaning on him from time to time since last night, although he also knew that it was mainly because the quilt was small and Shi Sanyue just wanted to keep warm.
"There's no sound at all. Don't be so startled. Do you think we'll live long enough? Stay away from me. What's the smell on you?" Leng Tiezhu pulled the quilt and tried to hide himself behind.
"Really no sound?" Shi Sanyue also listened carefully. Indeed, he didn't hear anything, but he was still a little worried.
"Yes..." Leng Tiezhu's voice seemed to be strangled in his throat, and it became quiet in an instant. Even his whole body seemed to be acupunctured, and he was nailed there in a side-lying position with his head raised and his eyes wide open in fear.
"Ah... ghost!" Shi Sanyue noticed something was wrong with Leng Tiezhu a little late, and subconsciously raised his upper body to look towards the door.
I saw that the door had been opened silently at some point, and in the faint light coming in from the window, a shadow that was almost as tall as the ceiling, completely black but with one spot that was bloody, as if it had drunk human blood, was standing straight at the door.
Beside him, Leng You, dressed in snow-white and with a pale face, was slowly approaching them with stiff steps.
Seeing them looking over, he suddenly let out a shrill laugh—
"I'm so cold... I'm so hungry... I'm in so much pain...
I died such a miserable death!
I am so unwilling... so unwilling.
Give me back my life... Give me back my life now!
Hahahaha…hahahaha…”
The eerie and hoarse voice still had some of her original childish voice. The strange voice sounded even more terrifying and spooky, so scary that it made people forget to even breathe.
Just when Leng You was about to get close to the two of them, Shi Sanyue didn't even finish shouting "Ah" and fell down with his eyes rolled over.
Leng Shugen's eyes remained wide open, and then he fainted with a snap.
The house was quickly filled with a strong smell of feces and urine.
"Hey... hey... dead pig, stop sleeping and wake up!" Leng Shugen in the west room seemed to hear a shout and was frightened awake. After listening, there was no movement outside, but he was so scared that his whole body went limp.
Seeing that Ma Dahua was snoring loudly in her sleep, he poked her hard with his elbow.
"Ah? What's wrong? What's wrong?" After being stabbed three or four times in a row, Ma Dahua woke up from the pain. He squinted his eyes and looked around, but didn't see anything unusual, so he put his head back. Just as he was about to close his eyes, they suddenly opened wide.
"I seemed to hear our mother screaming just now, is that damn girl...
What…what happened?”
Just seeing Ma Dahua's expression made Leng Shugen pee. He turned around slowly, but when he turned halfway, he saw two floating shadows, one black and one white, one big and one small.
"Leng Shugen...Ma Dahua...you hit me so hard!
My head hurts... my face hurts... my body hurts...
My head was bleeding so much... I had so many blisters on my body from the burns, they were really big!
I stood barefoot in the snow for a long, long time... My feet were oozing pus and bleeding, it was so painful and uncomfortable!
I finally waited for you guys...hahahaha...hahaha..."
The terrifying sound became more and more eerie and terrifying as a pale figure slowly approached, like the Black and White Impermanence coming from the underworld to claim lives.
No, that tall black shadow reaching the roof is clearly Hei Wuchang.
All the pores on Leng Shugen's body exploded, his hair stood on end, he opened his mouth, but before he could even make a sound, he fell down with his eyes rolled back.
"Help...Help...Help...Ah! Don't kill me...Don't kill me! It's not me...It's not me...It's not..."
Ma Dahua didn't know where she got the courage from, but she opened her mouth and screamed. However, when Leng You raised his hand and a bone-chilling coldness fell on her neck, her courage instantly disappeared, and she fainted before she could even catch her breath.
…
Last night, Leng You, who turned into a fierce ghost, was unable to quell his grievances, so he took Hei Wuchang to seek revenge on Leng Tiezhu's family. The news spread to every corner of Daheishan Village just after breakfast.
Before noon, the news had spread to the Shaoguo Village below.
However, to the regret of many people, at the critical moment, Huang Daxian, who was in the fairy mountain, set up an altar and performed rituals. After constant kneeling and begging for help from various gods, he was able to stop the evil ghost from taking away all the souls of the Leng family.
Although the lives of the Leng family were saved, the evil spirit did not let them go easily. Except for the silly big egg, everyone in the Leng family had pig faces when they woke up the next morning, so that they could not recognize each other.
The four adults of the Leng family completely lay on the kang, without the strength to get up. Only Leng Tiezhu was slightly better, at least he was still conscious. The other three were completely unconscious and talking nonsense.
Shouting something over and over again -
"Leng You, I was wrong. I shouldn't have instigated your father to beat you. Please forgive me!"
"It's my fault. I shouldn't have kicked you in the head and made you bleed."
"Leng You, please forgive me! I will never dare to burn you with a stove hook again, never dare to hit you again, and never dare to chase you into the snow again..."
"Don't take my life! I don't want to die..."
"Tell me what you want! I will agree to whatever you ask for, as long as you spare the lives of our family members."
…
When he saw the fat boy with a pig face standing outside the door, Bai Changpu jumped suddenly, and it took him a long time to react. It turned out to be Goushengzi from the Leng family.
"My grandfather asked you to go and see them as soon as possible." Having been spoiled since childhood and relying on the authority of the village chief Leng Tiezhu, Gou Shengzi has always been domineering in the village. Gradually, he developed this kind of domineering and uneducated character.
