Qian Huan, who had just come out of the house with an enamel basin intending to wash up, saw this scene, dropped the basin, and ran over.
They didn't care that the toothbrushes and toothbrush cups in the basin were scattered all over the floor.
"Zhou Zhuang, what happened to you? Did you fall?" she said, trying to help Zhou Zhuang up.
Zhou Zhuang was so frightened that his legs went weak, but luckily he was a young man, it was broad daylight, and Qian Huan was with him.
He encouraged himself and finally stood up with the help of Qian Huan.
He was still shivering all over.
Qian Huan was confused: "What's wrong with you? Did you see a ghost?" These hands are so cold, like icicles.
Qian Huan was just joking, and this kind of joking is only dared between close friends. Otherwise, if he were reported, he would be in a pretty bad situation.
I thought that telling a joke would make Zhou Zhuang feel better.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhuang trembled even more violently.
Qian Huan also noticed something was wrong and quickly helped Zhou Zhuang walk into the sun.
The sun had just risen, but it was mostly blocked by the courtyard wall. After taking a few steps to the side, the two of them finally emerged from the shadow of the wall.
Perhaps it was because the sun was shining and it was warm, Zhou Zhuang's condition improved a bit.
At least Qian Huan no longer heard the "clattering" sound of teeth chattering.
After a while, Qian Huan noticed that Zhou Zhuang's hands weren't as cold anymore, and asked again, "Are you feeling better? What happened to you just now?"
Zhou Zhuang's body stiffened again; clearly, what he had just witnessed had frightened him greatly.
Then, trembling, he raised his hand, pointed to the door, and said haltingly, "There's...there's...there's a ghost..."
Qian Huan was terrified when she heard this. Zhou Zhuang was an honest man and would never make fun of her so early in the morning.
Furthermore, even if he really wanted to, his acting was so convincing; it's a shame he's not an actor with such talent.
Qian Huan encouraged himself, reminding himself: "The sun is out, where would the ghosts come from?"
Only then did they slowly move towards the door.
Inching closer, Qian Huan first saw a pair of feet wearing straw sandals.
My feet were so dirty that their original color was completely unrecognizable.
Then slowly my legs were covered in dust.
Qian Huan cheered herself up. Fortunately, this was a person, not a ghost. She had heard from the old folks that ghosts didn't have feet.
Also, the person was being bathed in sunlight.
If that were really it, it would have been annihilated long ago.
Qian Huan's expression relaxed slightly, and she moved a little further out, just enough to see the person's face.
The next second, his eyes widened, bulged slightly, and his mouth opened wide.
A loud "A ghost!" was blatantly shouted out!
The person's face was covered in bulging, uneven skin, as if it had been burned. The entire face looked like melted wax that had cooled and solidified.
Some parts are red, and some parts are black.
One eye was covered with a layer of melted flesh.
There was less than half of the hair on his head.
Its entire appearance is more like a demon than a demon itself.
Upon hearing Qian Huan's words, the man shakily stood up, repeatedly saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please don't hit me, please don't hit me, I'll leave right now."
Then, leaning on the wooden stick that had already blossomed, he walked out with difficulty.
Qian Huanren was completely stunned.
I just watched them walk away.
Others also came out one after another after hearing the commotion.
I only saw the person's back.
On the back of that person's head, there were also multiple layers of tangled flesh, a dark layer, like a shell.
It's terrifying.
Hearing the noise, the others also came out of the house.
Then I saw the person's back.
Zhao Lu and Li Fang were so frightened that they covered their mouths and dared not make a sound.
It was as if she was afraid the sound would startle the person.
Su Jiaqi screamed out loud.
The man turned around, revealing his terrifying face to everyone.
Li Fang fainted with a scream, but fortunately Zhao Lu was still conscious and quickly helped her up.
Su Jiaqi did the same, letting out a scream that echoed through the sky.
Then she collapsed softly.
The fifth strongest was also quite frightened by this person's appearance, but fortunately, he has weathered many storms over the years.
Nothing has happened yet.
Seeing that Su Jiaqi was about to fall to the ground, he quickly stepped forward, caught her, and held her in his arms.
When Qian Huan and the others saw this, their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets again.
What, what are you doing?
Only Zhang Jun stared blankly at the spot where the man had just sat.
When it was time to go to work, everyone at the educated youth settlement was listless.
Today's task is to water the cornfield.
The corn is almost ripe and needs plenty of water.
Unfortunately, there has been a drought recently, and it hasn't rained much.
The water level in the river is not high.
Water cannot be directly irrigated; it can only be carried by shoulder pole.
It's already hard work, and then I got such a fright this morning.
Everyone was listless and dispirited while working.
All three female educated youths have taken leave.
The fifth-ranked player also took leave.
Xiao Aimin was speechless. These kids were too spoiled. They would ask for leave whenever there was heavy work.
Qian Huan, who went to ask Xiao Aimin for leave on behalf of Xiao Aimin, noticed that the wrinkles on Xiao Aimin's face had deepened a little.
I knew this old comrade was unhappy.
He quickly explained, "Uncle, it's not that they're being lazy. This morning, you wouldn't believe it, someone came to our door. How should I put it? When you saw him, it was like... well, we just encountered someone who was absolutely terrifying!"
"You don't know, Uncle, he must have been burned by fire. His entire face is covered in burns, one eye is covered by skin and flesh, and he's lost half his hair. I've never seen anyone so scary. And this is in broad daylight; if it were at night, it would be terrifying!"
A hint of suspicion flashed in Xiao Aimin's eyes: "Is it really that scary? You're not just a coward, are you exaggerating for me on purpose?"
Qian Huan nodded vigorously, using all her strength.
The fear had not completely faded from her face.
"Seriously, I'm not kidding. I think we should find someone to find him, or give him some food and send him away. He looks too scary. If the elderly or children see him, they'll definitely cry. Li Fang and Su Jiaqi were so frightened that they fainted!"
Xiao Aimin was initially worried that the young man might break his neck from nodding so much.
Hearing that the two young girls at the educated youth settlement had fainted from fright, his expression turned serious.
"Did you really faint from fright?"
Qian Huan nodded emphatically again: "Really, why would I lie to you about something like this? If it weren't for this, they would definitely come. Zhao Lu stayed behind to take care of Li Fang, and Wu Qiang took care of Su Jiaqi."
"Su Jiaqi? The fifth strongest is taking care of her? What's going on with these two?" Xiao Aimin frowned.
With these two together, will he have a good life in the future?
Qian Huan gave a simple, honest smile, somewhat like Chen Shuo's: "I don't know about that, Uncle. I'm going to fetch water. The corn in our team is growing really well. This year is sure to be a bumper harvest. I'm off!"
As he spoke, he took off running.
Xiao Aimin laughed and scolded, "You little devil!"
Then, his brows furrowed again. He really needed to find such a frightening person quickly.
Before I could decide whether to look for them, someone ran over shouting, "Captain, something's happened!"
