C521 The truth is clear (1/2)
Could it be that Lian Xian really did listen to Auntie Xiao and Lian Xueqiao's words and came looking for someone to take revenge on?
She stumbled all the way back to the west yard and into her own room. She quickly closed the door and leaned against it, unable to calm her heart for a long time.
She lowered her head and saw that the hand that had touched the paper money was still pitch black.
After she calmed down, she got a basin of water and washed her hands. However, no matter how much she washed, she couldn't wash her hands clean.
After a while, the hand started to itch, as if there were a lot of ants beside it.
She could not bear it any longer, so she used her hand to scratch it, but who knew that the more she scratched, the more itchy it felt.
When she looked at the copper mirror, her heart skipped a beat. There was also a patch of greyish black on her face, as if she had wiped it away with her hand when the burnt out piece of paper landed on her face.
Anxious, she wiped and rubbed it vigorously, but the black couldn't be wiped away either. She lowered her head and continued to wash her face in the basin. After washing for a while, her face began to itch as well.
She raised her head and looked at herself in the mirror — —
But instead of seeing her own face in the mirror, she saw another terrible face, festering, with drops of pus dripping from it and ripping the top of her head, and the sight of blood and pus trickling down her face was terrible.
Ah!” Even the Immortal! ” Auntie Xiao screamed as the water basin in her hands fell to the ground with a thud. At the same time, a gust of cold wind blew in, extinguishing the candle flame in the room.
”Aunt Xiao, I feel wronged …” The bronze mirror suddenly fell from the dressing table and landed in front of Aunt Xiao. Her face was still reflected in the mirror. Her expression was painful as she sobbed. However, what fell down was not tears but a stream of red blood.
”Ah …” Go away, go away, you're already dead, what are you trying to do? ” Xiao Niang sat on the ground and moved backwards step by step, but the mirror on the ground followed her little by little, as if it was possessed by an evil magic.
Auntie Xiao had been frightened to the point that her body was numb. As her lower body warmed up, a warm current flowed out from her crotch — —
Suddenly, in the dark, two hands came out from behind the mirror and grabbed Aunt Xiao's face. Those hands were festering and gave off a revolting stench. On closer look, the back of the hands were densely covered with squirming white maggots.
Auntie Xiao felt a numbing sensation on her face. She reached out her hand to touch it, and felt several maggots squirming on her palm.
”Ah, retch …” She was so frightened that she started to retch. She gathered up her courage and used her hand to pat it, but nothing hit her. She held the air in her hand.
”Aunt Xiao, you gave me back my life. You were the one who harmed me. You were the one who harmed me …” The mournful wailing sound was like the chilly wind in a valley. It was delicate yet distinct.
”Why did you harm me? Why …” The face in the mirror suddenly opened its mouth, and pus splattered down …
”Let's go, let's go. I, I'll go ask for a Mage to transcend the rank of Undead for you. You, don't come look for me anymore …” Auntie Xiao had always been afraid of evil spirits, but at this moment, she was so scared that she was speechless.
”Haha …” Suddenly, the mirror shattered with a crack. The white haired figure stood up slowly, her feet still off the ground, floating in front of her, ”You've caused me so much trouble, I don't want to be reincarnated. I want to be a lonely ghost, crying in front of your bed day and night, making you unable to be at peace for all your life …”
Auntie Xiao had already been scared witless two days ago, so she was already drowsy and uncomfortable. At this moment, she was already scared to the point of having her soul leave her body.
”Since things have come to this, there's no use in doing so. You, you'd better hurry up and leave …”
