Chapter 426 (1/2)

Roasted Pork

“Holysh*t! The washroom is really haunted!” Liu Kang shouted as he ran into the courtyard, and hid in a corner. He was no longer that fearless, confident man. He had been reduced into a blubbering, nervous wreck…

Seeing Liu Kang terrified to such an extent, everyone finally started panicking. They had claimed to be very interested in supernatural phenomena, yet they were thoroughly afraid of it.

These people had actually been looking forward to such encounters. They wanted to see what a fierce ghost actually looked like. Now that reality had reared its ugly head, their wits have left them.

Detective Ou Yang encouraged everyone to investigate the washroom together. With more people, there would be enough Yang energy[1], and they would not need to be afraid of ghosts.

Everyone quickly agreed. They entered the washroom together, and were greeted by the sour, metallic stench of blood. Liu Kang lay dead in the toilet. His entire head had been submerged in the old-style toilet pit. It was a disgusting death, if not gory. What a smelly death!

Novelist Zhao Song took note of the fatty’s death. He chuckled. That was why such bravado would never last more than a chapter in his book!

Suddenly, someone pointed out, “If Liu Kang is already dead, who’s the guy who ran out shouting just now?”

The moment they heard this, a chill emerged from within each of their souls. When they took a closer look, Liu Kang’s body was gone.

Prior to this, everyone still had their doubts concerning the existence of supernatural phenomena. Now that all of them had taken note of this strange phenomenon, they could no longer deceive themselves anymore.

This Feng Men village was definitely haunted, and some murderous evil ghost was here. They had no way of speaking to it. Now, they were in a haunted house!

When everyone had gone to the old-style toilet, Zhao Youyue had actually seen a very interesting scene in the courtyard. That totally scared Liu Kang had seemed to have lost his mind, and took his own life. What’s interesting was that he had even substituted himself with the roasted rabbit, and became the roasted pork!

It had been a rather visually shocking scene. Zhao Youyue felt as if she was watching some sort of holographic horror movie. Unfortunately, she could not watch it from Liu Kang’s first-person perspective. If not, it would have been more exciting —— What did he actually see?

One could only guess. Liu Kang most probably envisioned himself putting up a struggle against the attempt on his life, but he was actually killing himself. Ghosts enjoyed such tricks, more than anything else. They could drive just about anyone to their deaths.

Then, Zhao Youyue saw the female ghost Chu Renmei appearing from the body. She brought along the black cat, and absorbed a wave of soul power that lay within the fear.

Zhao Youyue finally sensed the “Two Dimensional Gate” churning about. It took in the power and applied it on the “Hua Xiaomao” character card. It originally had a time limit, but that duration had now be extended!

Zhao Youyue was shocked!

So, by observing fierce ghosts kill people within this supernatural genre literary world, she could actually harvest “Two-Dimensional Gate” related energy?

The implications were equally shocking. If she wanted to keep this up, did she have to turn into a black cat, and go everywhere, observing all sorts of fierce ghosts kill more people? By then, she would become the truly ominous cat. Wherever she was, there would be death!

By now, the confused crowd had once again returned to the courtyard. They wanted to figure out where the fatty Liu Kang actually was. In the end, they could not find him!
