Chapter 0327 What to run!
The layout of the old mansions were all similar, two dead acacia trees were planted inside the house, a large water tank was placed under the tree, and further inside was the main hall and the bedroom.
The wooden door slammed against the wall, Chen Ge’s kick almost cracked the door.
”Let me hear your grievances!”
Striding forward, the dirt road in the courtyard began to loosen, and the dead acacia tree slowly tilted, as if something inside was about to burrow out.
Chen Ge walked to the side of the acacia tree, and the sand and soil slid down, revealing a blackened corpse pit, in which a pair of hands was reaching out.
”Want to come out? Good ah! I’ll help you!” Chen Ge looked at the resentful eyes in the corpse pit and raised the skull crushing hammer high: “Smash all the bones! It won’t get stuck!”
The hammer smashed down, and creepy sounds rang out from the old mansion.
Remarkably, the other acacia tree next to it suddenly stopped tilting, and the sandy soil began to flow backwards.
Swinging their hammers furiously, Chen Ge and Xu Yin dragged out the ghost at the root of the acacia tree.
After moving his muscles, Chen Ge set his eyes on the rest of the yard.
”They’re hiding underneath the tree pit, they shouldn’t be the ones who cried out just now.”
The previous voice was coming from the old mansion, but since Chen Ge entered, that voice came to an abrupt end.
Looking around, Chen Ge realized that there was a round leather ball floating in the water tank, and strangely enough, that leather ball was sinking down a little bit, as if it was planning to drown itself.
”The leather ball will still sink by itself?”
Chen Ge carried the skull crushing hammer to the side of the water tank and looked in, there was a ghost hiding in the water tank, its body was blistered white and its round head seemed to be floating on the water surface like a leather ball.
”Was it you who cried out just now? If you have grievances in your heart, you must say them!”
The hammer smashed the water tank, splashing the water in all directions, Chen Ge let Xu Yin go to redress the grievances of this ghost and monster, and entered the main hall himself.
Paper money floated down inside the house, as if a white affair had been held not long ago, a dark coffin was placed in the center of the main hall, and some weird portraits were pasted on the four walls.
”Where is the man? Where did they go? Why don’t they speak?”
Chen Ge stared at the portraits on the walls for half a day, people here didn’t respect gods and spirits, they only worshipped mountain ghosts, and the portraits were all monsters with horrible faces.
”It looks just like the real thing.”
It was obviously a portrait, but it felt divine, as if something lived inside.
Chen Ge didn’t know if it was an illusion from looking at it for too long or because of some other reason, but he saw the eyes of one of the portraits suddenly turn.
”It seems to be moving, could there be a ghost hiding in the painting?”
While Chen Ge was thinking, Xu Yin, who was half dressed in red, walked in, and at the same time, several black shadows flashed out from the paintings on the walls and rushed towards the bedroom.
Xu Yin immediately chased after them, and as he entered the bedroom, the coffin in the center of the room shook and the lid was pushed open a crack.
A ghostly shadow with dots of red blood on its body gave Xu Yin a very scornful look before uncovering the coffin and escaping by taking the road!
”The tunic is stained with blood, this guy doesn’t have the potential to become a red coat as well, right?” Chen Ge called on Xu Yin and decisively chased after him.
The black shadow ran even faster when it realized that Chen Ge and Xu Yin were chasing after it.
In the old mansion, there was again plowing the earth, a water tank breaking, and the vibration of the coffin, and Master Bai and Old Wei stopped outside and froze, not daring to go in.
”Who is Chen Ge talking to inside? Why hasn’t he come out yet?” Old Wei was anxious in his heart, he gathered courage and walked to the door, before he got close, a black shadow stained with blood sprang out.
”What is it?!” Old Wei’s heart was startled, and before he could react, he saw Chen Ge’s eyes glowing red as he chased out wielding a hideous hammer.
”Stop!”
One after the other, the soul streamers that were blocking the street were directly smashed, and Chen Ge’s voice could be heard throughout the entire street.
”What’s going on ……”
Old Wei and Master Bai stood in the doorway holding the baby, looking at the two sides that were chasing and fleeing, and surprisingly, they still felt inexplicably harmonious, as if it was supposed to be like this.
”Is Xiao Chen chasing that person in front?”
”Seems to be.”
”But aren’t the three of us running for our lives tonight? Why would he be chasing someone else around?”
”I’m not sure, I guess it’s because he looks meaner.”
The sound of hammering on the wall came from the distance again, and Bai Daqi and Lao Wei hurriedly chased after him.
The black shadow was extremely fast, Chen Ge could only barely catch up, but it was Xu Yin who slowly closed the distance with the monster.
”Running so fast, its strength must not be too bad. After swallowing it, Xu Yin might be able to become a red coat!”
Chen Ge killed the red-eye, and having a Redcoat by his side in this weird village was the only way to feel at ease.
”As long as Xu Yin can become a Redcoat, this trial mission is blood money!”
The black shadow was chased and didn’t dare to turn back, but its escape route seemed to have been thought out in advance, heading straight for a certain building in the village.
The street became even more depressing, the paper money on the ground was much less and swollen frames cut out of white paper began to appear
After chasing out about a dozen meters, at the end of the street, Chen Ge saw a sedan chair.
The blood-red body of the sedan chair and the surrounding white paper cut-outs emitted a strong sense of grievance.
The night wind blew the curtains of the sedan chair, and the woman’s voice appeared again.
The black shadow stopped for a moment at the entrance of the mansion where the sedan chair was placed, then fled into it.
”Still knows to call for help? This ghost is smart.”
Chen Ge lifted the palanquin and took a look, there was nothing inside, he walked towards the old mansion that the black shadow had entered.
The mansion was more imposing than the other houses in the village, but there were also more bloodstains and traces of living people struggling left on the walls than other houses.
”Could it be the village chief’s house?” Chen Ge pushed open the door, and white swollen Zheng was plastered all over the house It was obvious that someone was preparing to get married here, but there was an accident.
”When that black shadow paused at the door just now, I saw it clearly, it seemed to be wearing the groom’s clothes, could it be that it is running to find its wife?” Chen Ge waved his skull-crushing hammer and smiled disdainfully, “Soft eaters.”
Rushing into the main hall, the woman’s voice in his ears grew louder and louder, and it had an effect on Chen Ge.
”The one who has been making noise is the wife of the Black Shadow?”
The woman’s voice seemed to drill into the body, as if it was wrapped around the heart like a silk thread, and with every beat of the heart, that familiar tone followed the blood flow to every part of the body, making people feel especially kind, and they couldn’t help but want to respond to it.
”It seems that the wife of the black shadow is the one with the heaviest and most terrifying grudge.” Chen Ge was pondering whether the woman could be Red, when the door to the main hall suddenly closed by itself, and the candles on both sides of the offering table were lit, emitting an eerie red light.
Under the light, a woman dressed in a large red wedding dress poked her head out from the bedroom, she was wearing a pair of embroidered shoes, and her looks were somewhat terrifying.
”Red dress?”
The veins on Chen Ge’s arm emerged, and he grasped the skull crushing hammer.
Taking a step outwards, the other half of the woman’s body was revealed, and the dowry on her body wasn’t completely dyed red with blood and was torn for the most part, revealing the stained undershirt underneath.
