Chapter 86: Water Well (2/2)

There were only two escape routes in the farmhouse. One was going through the broken window, while the second was leaving from the large gate in the yard.

Right now, one of the routes was already blocked off, so the two had no other choice but to go through the main gate.

Originally, the two people went in the farmhouse to search for the two anchors that were courting death, but now that the two anchors were gone, they always felt that ghosts of these two anchors were floating by their side, silently watching them from a dark corner.

This farmhouse clearly has ghosts, so foolishly going in to explore this place must mean that one has lost one’s mind.

The two tossed their original plan at the back of their minds, setting their sights on quickly leaving through the yard.

Thus, Ozawa Hiroshi strode with hastened steps to the gate, while Lu Ruichao was right behind him, not saying a word, his footsteps were a bit quicker than his usual ones.

As he passed by the water well, he randomly glanced at its opening, only to discover that there was a mutilated ghost drifting on the surface of the well’s hole.

Seeing this sight, the malicious ghost suddenly bore out of the hole, causing Lu Ruichao to immediately react.

The ghost was hiding in the well all along!

Lu Ruichao then abruptly yelled, “Ozawa!”

As soon as he shouted this, the ghost’s bloody red hand suddenly stretched out, completely stuffing itself and tightly blocking up his mouth, his face twisting from taking in the fist.

In a blink of an eye, Lu Ruichao dried up into a piece of human skin and instantly swole up again, regaining its original appearance.

“What’s the matter?”

Ozawa Hiroshi still vigilantly turned his head around. Lu Ruichao, this person couldn’t even let out three loud farts, so if he shouted at the top of his lungs, it definitely meant that he discovered something important.

Ozawa Hiroshi also cherished his life dearly, so he wanted to quickly escape this farmhouse full of dead people.

But in the app’s games, solely escaping was not enough to live forever.

Seeing how Lu Ruichao staring at the well’s opening with a pale complexion and how he yelled out but was now not saying a word, looking too distracted to even answer him.

Ozawa Hiroshi grinded his teeth, cursing Lu Ruichao as trash and an idiot that couldn’t even speak well inside his heart. With a grim face, he pulled open the latch, causing the large gate to open wide, and used the sack full of miscellaneous goods to hold the gate open.

Seeing that the opened gate was stable and wouldn’t play any tricks of closing, Ozawa Hiroshi fiercely and quickly walked towards the well, asking Lu Ruichao, “What did you find?”

“Look for yourself.”

Lu Ruichao pointed at the well’s opening as Ozawa Hiroshi, who was still suspicious, looked at it, stretching out his head to get a better look inside the well.

As a result of this look, he jumped from shock. The inside of this deep dark well was unexpectedly harboring a person!

Upon closer inspection, this person was badly mangled as if his skin was peeled off.

Ozawa Hiroshi suddenly realized that this person was dead!

No, this person could still move. It basically isn’t a person anymore, but a ghost!

Ozawa Hiroshi was overwhelmed with shock. Perceiving that something was amiss, he turned his body, wanting to run away.

Unfortunately, before he could turn around, Lu Ruichao held him by the waist and threw him into the well.

Luckily for him, Ozawa Hiroshi’s body was a bit on the heavier side, so he barely got stuck on the well’s walls.

There was a ghost at the bottom of the well, which meant that falling straight down would be a dead end, so he diligently propped his body up. Despite his body being constantly rubbed by the coarse wall, causing bloody wounds to open, he still strenuously climbed.

Ozawa Hiroshi’s speed was slow. Even if he exhausted his strength, he could only move his body up little by little. If he wasn’t careful, he’d fall to the bottom of the well.

At this moment, Ozawa Hiroshi had just processed what happened.

Lu Ruichao had long seen the ghost in the well, so he was intentionally trying to harm him!

This d*mned thing. That person, why would he do this to him?

He asked himself if he had offended him these past two days. Why would he do this?!

Ozawa Hiroshi’s eyes turned red. He wanted to ruthlessly rip Lu Ruichao apart, limb from limb, thinking in his heart that if they managed to get out of this alive, he’d surely kill him.

During his harsh climb, a fishy yet sweet smell bubbled out of Ozawa Hiroshi’s throat. This made him afraid yet angry at the same time, but he quickly couldn’t care less about being angry.

He laboriously climbed up, and as he discovered fear deep within his heart, his hands gradually started to atrophy.

At some point in time, his fingernails were already peeled off and his fingertips were already wrinkled into becoming triangles, slowly shrinking. Soon, his ten fingers shriveled into skin, only the flesh and bones from his palms were leaning against the well’s wall, supporting him up.

However, to the naked eye, one could see the rate of what was happening. His palms were also slowly caving in as if they were a rubber eraser getting squashed and spreading out until they turned into pieces of thin human skin.

“No! No!”

Ozawa Hiroshi twisted and turned his fat body, drawing support from his bare arms like an ordinary worm moving.

However, no matter how hard he tried, his plump body was still getting thinner and thinner, his flesh and bones compressing down like his palms, which have already dehydrated into skin, gradually crumpling up into a ball…

He helplessly watched himself turn into human skin alive, followed by sliding down the walls to the bottom of the well, falling into the malicious ghost’s grasp.

The malicious ghost, hiding at the bottom of the water, jumped out of the deep well after obtaining Ozawa Hiroshi’s skin.

The ghost made Ozawa Hiroshi’s skin shake and tremble, and shortly, the human pelt was filled with air, reinstating its fatty appearance of flesh and blood.

Waiting for the human skin to fully recover, the malicious ghost climbed out of the house through the broken window.

In the yard, ‘Ozawa Hiroshi’s’ body was damp but he paid no mind to it.

He shook the water away from his body and walked out the gate as if nothing happened. Outside the large gate, Lu Ruichao hung a strange grin as if he had been waiting for him outside for a long time…
