C8 (1/2)
Wasn't this disease already dead? People had already been buried, how could someone still be alive and appear here!
At this moment, I could clearly see that Zhao Quan'er's face had a trace of hatred and poison in it.
His dark eyes swept the room. When he looked at the door, I subconsciously lowered my head and avoided his gaze.
Even through the door, with his gaze sweeping over me, I could feel a chill.
Facing Zhao Quan'er, an unprecedented feeling of fear rose in my heart.
I was so scared that I didn't dare to move an inch. Obviously, Zhao Quan'er didn't notice me and continued to rummage through the boxes.
My heart was pounding, and at the same time an idea popped into my head. What the hell was he looking for?
Then an idea struck me, and I remembered the box the Grand Lady had told me to steal. Could it be that Zhao Quan'er came here to look for that thing?
The more I thought about it, the more it seemed to me that this was the most likely explanation, so I sneaked a look around the room and saw that the box was gone.
Could the disappearance of the old woman in the middle of the night have something to do with the box? She ran off with the box, or just found a place to hide it.
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a shiver down my spine. It felt as though the surrounding temperature had suddenly dropped by quite a bit.
I thought I was scared, and I was under the illusion. But a moment later, I saw my breath form a white mist in the moonlight.
I looked at everything that was happening in front of me in amazement.
Then, I noticed that Zhao Quan'er who was in the room was about to go berserk.
The more furious he was, the colder the surrounding air became. I couldn't help but shiver as I thought to myself, Could it be that the sudden drop in temperature is related to him? Is he still human?!
I was so scared that my heart was in my throat. It doesn't matter if Zhao Quan'er is dead or not, but looking at him now, it seems like it's best if I don't provoke him.
So while he wasn't paying attention, I sneaked back into my room, lay down on the bed, and continued to pretend to be asleep.
After about ten minutes, I saw Zhao Quan'er's shadow once again appear in my window.
He was not afraid of anyone knowing about it, so he just pushed open the door and entered.
I lay on the bed pretending to sleep, but I was curled up in a ball of fear.
From the bottom of my heart, I was filled with fear of him. It was an uncontrollable fear, as if it came from instinct.
I narrowed my eyes to a slit and stared at him for a moment, and then I saw him stop as he reached the door of my room.
At the same time, my heart tightened.
Zhao Quan'er didn't seem to have any intention of avoiding him, pushing open the door.
When his grey-green face appeared in the doorway, I gripped the latch so tightly that my hand was covered in cold sweat.
When he opened the door, he did not come in. Instead, he sniffed around, sniffing around like a dog.
I looked at him in surprise.
Surprisingly, he finished his sniffing and turned to leave. I let out a long breath when he was gone.
I lay cold and sweaty in bed and didn't dare move for the rest of the night.
I didn't get out of bed until the next morning, when the sun was up.
Right now, I'm no longer as afraid as I was last night. I recalled that since Zhao Quan'er didn't die, then I have no reason to help him search for a corpse.
After thinking about it, I walked out of the house and went to ask Zhao Wu to bring my dad back.
I found out that Zhao Wu didn't live in his own house, but stayed in the house of a main clan brother in the village.
When I reached the intersection, I heard a wild donkey's barking. The sound of the donkey was very strange. It had already changed its tune.
I was startled, and when I looked up, I saw that the donkey was twirling about restlessly, as if frightened by something.
Subconsciously, I looked at the donkey and saw tears welling up in its eyes. Tears started to fall from its eyes. After falling to the ground, the ground actually turned slightly red.
Her tears were laced with blood. This was blood!
I was taken aback. I didn't know why the donkey was crying, but I instinctively felt that this wasn't a good sign.
So I wanted to go up and take a closer look, but then, when I stepped forward, the donkey took a step back.
In the end, it had nowhere to run to. It bent its front legs, dropped to its knees, and buried its head in the ground, as if it were extremely afraid to see me.
At the same time, the color of the blood and tears in its eyes became more and more dark. In the end, it was as if it was truly bleeding.
Just as I was dumbfounded, I suddenly heard the Grand Matriarch's voice from behind me, ”Wu Lei, what's going on?”
I was startled by her, and when I looked back, I saw that the matriarch's face was livid, and her nearly bald eyebrows were scrunched together.
The Grand Matron looked at the donkey kneeling on the ground, then at me, and a look of sudden realization crossed her face. Then she asked me: Did you not listen to me last night?
My heart skipped a beat. I didn't expect to be exposed so quickly.
