Chapter 118: The Ruthless Actor (26)
Shi Sui sensed a strong resentment surging from the banks of the Huangpu River.
She glared, placed the butt of her gun on the stage, and began to lure all the wronged souls over.
The whirlpool on the Huangjiang River grew bigger and bigger. At Shisui's call, the river water formed a rapidly rotating waterspout, rushing straight into the sky, forming a water dragon.
Following the route designed by Shi Sui, thousands of ghost soldiers are advancing at a high speed, pouring into the Zhan residence.
The sound of gongs on the stage became louder and louder. Shi Sui and a dozen costumes that floated out of the third concubine's wardrobe performed wonderful martial arts scenes from "Mu Guiying Takes Command".
One side is doing somersaults, the other side is waving an axe.
They have a lot of fun punching, kicking, and wielding swords.
On the stage, the scene was bustling with activity and climaxes one after another.
Below the stage, the audience, already captivated by the performance, cheered loudly, with cheers and applause ringing in the ears.
No one noticed that a large army was approaching from behind.
In the guardhouse next to the garden gate, Zhan Mingzhe and Miao Jue witnessed all kinds of ferocious ghosts rushing towards the stage like a tide.
The door of the guard room was also banging.
The two were stunned and held each other's hands tightly out of instinctive fear.
"Is Fourth Sister okay?" Miao Jue's voice trembled as he spoke.
Zhan Mingzhe put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Now that we've come this far, we must trust Fourth Mother!"
...on the stage in the garden.
"A thousand-mile expedition to quell the evil, a hundred thousand warriors sweep away the smoke and dust. The thieves and their leaders are captured, and the bandits are annihilated, all three armies sing the song of victory.
Generals, this expedition is extraordinary. You must fight bravely and serve your country. Along the way, protect the people and do not harm them. Those who disobey orders will be executed!"
Shi Sui was singing the opera passionately, but in fact, she was giving orders to the ghost soldiers who swarmed in.
Kill!!!
Shisui snapped her fingers on the stage, and the illusion she had created in the garden disappeared.
The gongs and drums on both sides of the stage were booming without anyone playing them, and more than a dozen costumes without heads, arms, or legs were fluttering around on the stage.
The exquisite snacks placed on the table next to the audience seats were instantly transformed into white paper money for the dead.
Those maids in red, who were originally as gentle as water, all grinned fiercely, revealing the fangs of the white forest.
The character "Shou" (longevity) hanging high in the center of the stage had been transformed into the character "Dian" (meeting), and blood was dripping from above...
"Ah—run—"
The foreigners and traitors in the audience woke up from their hallucinations and realized that they had fallen into an elaborate conspiracy and were trapped in an irretrievable situation! !
But it was too late.
Waves of sharp roars rang out from behind the stage.
The guests turned around in horror and saw countless ghost soldiers in military uniforms riding horses, women in tattered clothes who had died tragically, and of course, crying children and babies!
These ghost soldiers bared their fangs and claws, seeking revenge for the humiliation they had suffered.
The garden of the Zhan residence was in an uproar, with people trying to escape or to seek their souls being plundered.
Seeing this situation, Mr. Zhan wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape.
But he hadn't taken a few steps with his head covered when he ran into a costume floating down from the stage.
It was a bright red wedding dress with a phoenix crown and a gorgeous dress.
“Get out of here…!!”
He raised his hand and tried to go through bravely.
But Jiayi suddenly uttered a sinister voice: "Master! My life, my child's life, what are you going to use to repay me?!"
Master Zhan was in a state of panic, and he felt that the voice seemed familiar...
The empty wedding dress flashed a dark red light.
Hands, feet, and neck stretched out from inside, and finally a purple-black face appeared.
This is the third concubine.
Four years ago, she was poisoned by Mr. Zhan and the Second Wife, and her soul was dispersed by the spell cast by Mr. Guang'an.
Some of it stayed in the original room, some of it was sealed in the suitcase containing the costumes, and the rest was taken to the underworld.
Because her soul was incomplete, she was unable and unwilling to pass away.
Tonight, Shi Sui opened the ghost gate, and her soul could finally be reunited. She could see her daughter and kill this scumbag with her own hands!
Faced with the third concubine's strong obsession, Mr. Zhan was unable to move and had nowhere to escape.
He was pinched by the neck by the third concubine and her daughter, and kicked his legs, suffocating to death in despair.
The second wife witnessed this scene with her own eyes, and her legs went weak. She pushed Zhan Deyun, who was sitting in a wheelchair, turned around and ran in the opposite direction.
But what's the point of running away after someone has done so many evil things?!
How could the Third Concubine forget her ugly face that appeared to be amiable and docile on the surface, but was actually as venomous as a snake and scorpion?!
In the end, the second wife suffered the same fate as Mr. Zhan.
After being married for so many years, she tried every possible means to take the position of the Zhan family's aunt but failed.
Now, to a certain extent, they really look like a couple.
Zhan Deyun watched his parents die tragically in front of him, and was certain that he would not be able to escape the disaster.
But the Third Concubine's spirit only glanced at him once before floating away. Although she had turned into a fierce ghost, the Third Concubine was not a person who killed innocent people. Zhan Deyun and her had no grudges against each other, so she had no reason to take his life.
Just as Zhan Deyun was gasping for breath and thought he had escaped, the maid who had hanged herself because she could not bear the humiliation of being molested by him suddenly appeared before him.
"Come and die—"
What goes around comes around.
After a scream, Zhan Deyun also died.
...In the chaos at the scene, the only person with weapons and equipment was Davis.
After all, he had been to the battlefield, and he was indeed scared at first when faced with the sudden fierce ghost, but after calming down a little, he took out a flash flare from his equipment backpack.
Davis loaded the flare into the gun chamber and fired it into the air.
In an instant, a dazzling red-purple cloud appeared in the inky black sky.
“Hahaha!!”
Davis laughed confidently and waited for the British consulate to send troops to rescue him.
But he didn't know that the action of launching the flare was actually part of Shisui's expectations and plans.
She was waiting...waiting for him to bring all the troops, the more the better!!
Tokiho looked up at the red light slowly setting in the night sky.
"Your mission has been completed... I'll be kind enough to perform a physical salvation for you!"
She suddenly threw the javelin in her hand and stabbed Davis' throat accurately.
Killed with one shot!
