Chapter 404 The Coward's Black Moonlight Witch 35
Father Meng put the chicken in his hand into the kitchen. When he came out, he saw drops of blood on the floor and immediately ordered Meng Feng, "Go and help grandma clean the room."
Meng Feng nodded, walked to the bathroom, picked up the mop, wet it and prepared to mop the floor.
Seeing this, Shen Xinran stood up and said with a smile: "Let me do it!"
After saying that, she took the mop and entered the room before anyone could react.
In the dim room, a white-haired old lady was lying on the bed. Her eye sockets were sunken, her lips were dry, and there were traces of blood at the corners of her mouth.
The moment Shen Xinran saw the old lady, his dusty memories were suddenly awakened.
After a person dies, if their resentment, anger or unfulfilled wishes in life are not released, their spirit may remain and form a special existence.
In this case, the body of the deceased may not decay according to natural laws, but instead transform into a supernatural form, namely black zombie.
The old lady frowned slightly, her voice hoarse, "You are a guest, how can I let you do that?"
Shen Xinran smiled and said, "It's okay. I like to help others clean up their messes."
After saying that, she picked up a piece of talisman paper, rushed to the bedside, and prepared to stick it on the old lady's forehead.
The old lady seemed to have noticed something, and she got out of bed and shouted at Meng's father: "Meng Dapeng, look at your good son, he actually hired someone to deal with me."
Meng Dapeng, who was outside the room, was furious. He raised his hand and slapped Meng Feng in the face. "You are such a heartless person! Your grandma was so kind to you before, how could you treat her like this!"
After Meng Dapeng finished speaking, he wanted to go into the room to help his mother.
Seeing this, Meng Feng rushed over, hugged Meng Dapeng's waist, and cried to him, "Dad, grandma is dead!"
Shen Xinran seized the opportunity and threw a talisman at the old lady. The talisman paper stuck to the old lady's skin and a layer of white smoke rose immediately.
The old lady wailed in pain, her voice shrill, "Meng Dapeng, just watch others bully your mother like this!"
Meng Dapeng rushed forward, helped the old lady tear off the talisman paper, and asked with concern: "Mom, are you okay?"
Chu Bojian, who was still standing by, stamped his feet in frustration. He also rushed forward and pinned Father Meng under him, "Quickly find a rope and tie him up first."
Meng Feng nodded, ran straight to the balcony, took out a coil of hemp rope, and together with Chu Bojian, they tied Meng's father to the table.
The old lady fell to the ground, looking at Shen Xinran with a hint of cruelty in her eyes, "Little girl, you forced me to do this."
After saying that, she revealed her sharp nails and flew towards Shen Xinran.
Chu Bojian's heart was in his throat, and he shouted, "Silly girl, be careful!"
When Shen Xinran heard the word "silly girl", he frowned slightly and glanced at Chu Bojian.
Chu Bojian could only smile awkwardly, "It was a slip of the tongue."
But the old lady was less than two meters away from Shen Xinran, but Shen Xinran showed no intention of moving at all. Chu Bojian stomped his feet in anger, "What are you standing there for? Run!"
Shen Xinran felt the old lady's nails almost touching her skin, and she suddenly realized something.
At the critical moment, she grabbed a stool and ran towards the bathroom.
The old lady followed closely behind, threatening with gritted teeth: "I will definitely suck all your blood today!"
Shen Xinran rushed into the bathroom and without hesitation, slammed the stool against the mirror on the sink, sending glass shards flying everywhere.
She turned quickly, exposing the old lady's face completely to the broken mirror.
The old lady's gaze fell on her own reflection. She froze in place, a trace of confusion and fear in her eyes.
The girl's cold voice rang in her ears: "You are already dead."
These words were like a sharp knife, piercing the old lady's heart. Her body gradually withered away, and finally she collapsed to the ground, turning into a dried corpse.
"Mom!" Meng Dapeng's sad voice echoed in the room.
Chu Bojian ran over, took a quick look, and then looked away. "What's going on?"
Chen Xinran's expression was indifferent. "The moment the mirror shattered, we were able to glimpse the thirteenth face, which was her appearance at the time of her death. The reason her spirit remained concentrated was because she refused to accept the fact that she was gone. Once she realized that she was dead, the spirit that supported her existence would dissipate."
After hearing what Shen Xinran said, Meng Feng suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
Shen Xinran stretched out his hand and said calmly, "Give me money."
Meng Feng immediately ran back to his room and took out the pocket money he had saved over the years. "It's fifteen thousand in total. It's all here."
Shen Xinran put the money into his canvas bag and prepared to leave.
But Meng Dapeng started to curse: "It's all your fault! You killed my mother!"
Shen Xinran turned around and gave Meng Dapeng a cold look. "She died a long time ago. The reason her body functions can be maintained until now is because she is absorbing your essence."
Meng Dapeng was stunned and a little at a loss for a moment.
Shen Xinran continued, "Haven't you noticed that you've been sweating a lot lately? If you stay with her for half a year, you'll be close to death."
A trace of panic flashed in Meng Dapeng's eyes. He could only look at the dried corpse on the ground and shouted weakly: "Mom, you died so tragically!"
When Chu Bojian and Shen Xinran returned home, He Baifeng had already prepared dinner. She smiled at them and asked, "Did you have fun today?"
Shen Xinran smiled and said, "Not bad."
He Baifeng was even happier when she heard this. "Then you don't have to stay at home all the time during your holidays. You can also go out and play with Xiao Chu."
Shen Xinran nodded, "Okay."
Chu Bojian: “…”
No, he refused! He never wanted to go out with that silly girl again! She said she was going out to play, but who knows what they were going to do!
…
Autumn is deepening and winter is quietly approaching. Two months have passed in the blink of an eye and it is the end of the semester.
After the exam, He Baifeng took Shen Xinran back to their hometown. The house in their hometown had not been lived in for half a year, and it was covered in dust as soon as they entered.
After He Baifeng put the things away, she began to clean the house with Shen Xinran.
Chu Bojian was also helping, moving in and out of the house, moving furniture and wiping windows from time to time.
He Baifeng looked at Chu Bojian's hardworking figure and smiled, "Xiao Chu, it's a good thing you're here today, otherwise Niuniu and I wouldn't know how long we'd be busy."
Chu Bojian shook his head and said with a smile: "I have eaten so much white rice at your house, I have to do something for you. If you need this kind of physical work in the future, call me anytime."
He Baifeng looked at Chu Bojian with increasing satisfaction, "You live alone over there, and it's inconvenient for you to eat and drink. Why don't you just come over for dinner this holiday!"
Chu Bojian stopped what he was doing and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "I've already troubled you a lot in the county town. How can I continue to trouble you when I get home?"
He Baifeng waved her hand and said, "It's just a matter of more people and more pairs of chopsticks. Don't be polite to me."
Chu Bojian nodded and said, "Thank you very much, Grandma He."
