Chapter 732: Don’t Kill Me
“Uncle, Uncle, it’s me, Jiang Xue. Aunt asked me to call you for dinner.” Jiang Xue knocked on the door of the bedroom with her crutch. She didn’t hear a reply from her uncle, and thought that he was still showering.
If it were any other day, Jiang Xue would have called a few times before giving up and going downstairs. However, since she had just come back today, she subconsciously wanted to curry favor with her uncle. Even if her aunt didn’t like her in the future, she had to win her uncle’s favor.
After all, she knew that her family relied on her uncle. What if her uncle also bore a grudge against her because of what happened before? Wouldn’t her family lose all the benefits from before?
Thinking this, Jiang Xue felt that she had to show her uncle her sincerity. Her tone became even more gentle and obedient as she called out, “Uncle, are you done? Aunt asked me to call you. Uncle, I’ll wait at the door and go downstairs with you!”
Water splashed in the bathroom inside. In front of the mirror, “Father Meng” stared fixedly at the rotting piece of flesh that poked out from his originally intact face from time to time. His eyes were bloodshot, and he lowered his head to stare at his burned and blackened hand. His face suddenly twisted with malevolence and hatred as he spat out, “B*tch!”
His voice was hoa.r.s.e and unpleasant, worse than stone grinding coa.r.s.e sand. After cursing, there were suddenly two separate faces in the mirror. One was the evil spirit’s face, and the other was Father Meng’s original face. Father Meng’s lips were blue and his eyes were glazed, and he shook his head desperately.
The evil spirit’s blood-red eyes stared at Father Meng’s face, which trembled with extreme horror. It suddenly giggled and shook its head. The two faces overlapped again, and a large chunk of rotten flesh appeared on Father Meng’s face!
“Father Meng” laughed viciously and spat out, “B*tch. I’m going to kill her whole family tonight!” After saying that, he gave a croaky laugh.
Outside, Jiang Xue felt like she could hear faint, creepy laughter, and she inexplicably s.h.i.+vered. She listened carefully, but only heard the faint sound of water splas.h.i.+ng inside. Soon, the sound stopped and someone came out.
Jiang Xue thought that her uncle had finished his shower. Besides, her uncle and aunt had told her that the evil spirit had been killed by the Master. Jiang Xue felt that she was overthinking it and was anxious to curry favor with Father Meng. Jiang Xue obediently called out again, “Uncle, it’s Xue. Aunt asked me to call you downstairs for dinner. Have you showered? I’ll wait and go downstairs with you!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the door suddenly opened with a bang.
Jiang Xue was shocked and subconsciously looked inside, only to see that her uncle was standing in front of the window with his back to her.
“Uncle! Let’s go downstairs to eat!” Jiang Xue called out. Father Meng didn’t move, and Jiang Xue probed again, but he still didn’t move.
Jiang Xue could only walk in on her crutch and call for him, acting obedient. “Uncle, it’s time to eat!”
Jiang Xue wondered why her uncle wasn’t saying anything. She had a vague, unpleasant thought. She subconsciously looked at her uncle’s reflection in the window, and saw a pair of strange blood-red eyes staring fixedly at her. The strange smile on his lips grew wider. At the same time, Jiang Xue clearly saw a large piece of rotten flesh on her uncle’s right cheek.
No, no, no, this wasn’t her uncle; this was that evil spirit!
Jiang Xue screamed in horror and trembled in fright. She fell to the floor with her crutch and p.i.s.sed her pants as she tried to run. Afraid that the evil spirit would kill her, she ran and shouted for help.
It was a pity that as soon as Jiang Xue got to the door, the evil spirit’s hair shot out to wrap around her neck.
“Don’t… Don’t kill me! Don’t… Cousin… is next door!” Jiang Xue was out of her mind with fear as the hair choked her. She wanted to say that her cousin and aunt, whom the evil spirit wanted, were downstairs and next door. She wanted this evil spirit to let her go and go look for Meng Shuyi and her aunt instead!
