Chapter 1133: Ghost Subst.i.tute, Fainted From Fright
Chi Shuyan gave Brother Feng a look. He immediately understood and found an excuse to take Father and Mother Wei outside.
To be honest, Feng Yuanlin understood Shuyan’s thoughts very well. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to tell Father and Mother Wei the truth, but even if he did, they wouldn’t believe him. People always denied anything that sounded absurd before they got used to it. They forgot that sometimes, just because something sounded absurd didn’t mean that it was all a lie, and once they encountered it for real, they regretted it.
After Father and Mother Wei left, there were only Chi Shuyan, Jiang Duo, Xiao Ningjin, Chang Hao, Xiong Luoying and Wei Panyang in the ward.
Chi Shuyan didn’t care if Wei Panyang believed her or not. She would say whatever she had to say. Whether he believed her or not was up to him. After all, his life was in his own hands.
It was fine as long as he didn’t regret his choice.
Chi Shuyan sat on the couch. Because Wei Panyang was in a VIP ward, it had a couch, a TV, a special balcony and a washroom. It was very convenient.
She sat down and saw the others standing around nervously and sneaking looks at her. She motioned for everyone to sit down.
Except for Wei Panyang, everyone else was very nervous, and their right eyelids kept twitching. Xiao Ningjin keenly sensed that Master Chi had something to tell them, and it probably wasn’t anything good. It might also have something to do with the nurse’s death.
Thinking this, Xiao Ningjin became even more nervous. He wrung his hands together and looked very uneasy. The others were the same, also fl.u.s.tered by the nurse’s sudden death.
They used to be brave and curious for gossip, but when they heard that something had happened to the nurse, they hadn’t dared go out and ask at all.
Chi Shuyan took in everyone’s expressions. Seeing that Wei Panyang had calmed down a little and wasn’t as terrified as before, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Chi Shuyan didn’t speak for a long time, and everyone felt more and more uneasy. Even Xiao Ningjin, who was the calmest, couldn’t sit still, let alone the others. In the end, Xiong Luoying and Jiang Duo couldn’t help but ask, “Master… Master Chi, what… what do you want to tell us? We’ll listen to you!”
Xiao Ningjin and Chang Hao immediately echoed, “Master Chi, hurry and tell us. We’ll all listen!”
Wei Panyang didn’t say anything, but Chi Shuyan didn’t care. She said, “Before I say anything, everyone should be mentally prepared.”
As soon as Chi Shuyan finished speaking, the boys swallowed harder and their faces turned pale.
Chi Shuyan was a bit helpless. These brats had the guts to provoke that thing, so why were they afraid now? But thinking about it, this wasn’t something they were willing to provoke. At the end of the day, these brats were too unlucky to have provoked that thing.
Xiao Ningjin spoke again at that moment. “Master Chi, are… are you going to tell us about that nurse?”
Chi Shuyan nodded. “Somewhat!”
“Is… Is that nurse really dead? Master Chi, how… how did she die?” Jiang Duo suddenly asked.
Chi Shuyan didn’t hide it and said directly, “That nurse was a bit unlucky and was stabbed dozens of times. A few of the stab wounds were fatal, so she died!”
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone’s faces changed. Wei Panyang was so scared that he fell straight off the bed and onto the floor. He was about to howl, when Chi Shuyan glanced at him coldly. He immediately shut up obediently, but his face was deathly pale and his whole body trembled.
The others weren’t any better off than Wei Panyang. Those who were sitting on the couch were so scared that they directly slid down to the floor. Those who had been drinking water dropped their disposable cups as their hands shook. Each face was more frightened than the next. In particular, when they thought of how they had seen that ghost thing stab s.h.i.+ Ran with their own eyes, their bodies trembled even more violently.
Chi Shuyan thought to herself that she hadn’t even gotten to the crux of the matter, and these brats were already so scared. These brats wouldn’t faint from fright later, right?
But even if these boys really fainted from fright, she still had to continue. After giving them a few minutes to digest her words, she continued, “As you’ve guessed, the reason this nurse died was indeed because of that thing you provoked!”
Xiao Ningjin’s throat was dry. He wanted to force out a smile, but couldn’t. He gritted his teeth and said, “Master Chi, isn’t… isn’t that thing… haunting just us?”
He had watched many horror movies and read many horror novels before. Didn’t things like these only target the people who provoked it? Or were the horror movies fake?
Xiao Ningjin wasn’t the only one who felt guilty and terrified at the thought that they had indirectly caused the death of an innocent person. Their hearts felt heavy and cold.
Chi Shuyan nodded and said, “Indeed, if it were an ordinary ghost or a ghost with some cultivation, it would be afraid of the heavens and would only haunt those who provoke them. However, your luck is better: There’s a 90% chance that you’ve run into a great ghost!”
The boys were stupefied and bewildered. Xiao Ningjin’s pupils contracted when he heard the phrase “great ghost.” He had the vague feeling that this wasn’t something good.
Chi Shuyan specially explained to them what a great ghost was. She told them what she had said to Brother Feng before. “Speaking of which, the ghost visitor you provoked this time is a water ghost. Water ghosts are generally divided into three types: ordinary water ghosts, water ghosts with some cultivation, and the last type are great water ghosts! It’s not a big deal if you provoked the first two. Although they will kill, in the end, they worry about the heavens and don’t dare act unscrupulously. Generally, they will only harm those who are involved, and not others!”
Chi Shuyan glanced at the boys, whose faces were even paler, before she continued, “This great ghost probably had too much resentment in its previous life. It cultivates by killing and harming people. Even if its cultivation level isn’t high at first, it can progress by leaps and bounds if it has the time. It’s very terrifying. Most importantly, it generally doesn’t care about the heavens and relies on killing and harming people to cultivate. Anyone can fall prey to it, whether it’s someone who provoked it or a pa.s.ser-by. In particular, those who provoked it are almost certain to die!”
As soon as Chi Shuyan said that, Jiang Duo and the others were so scared that they trembled and their vision turned black. Their eyes rolled back and they looked like they were about to faint.
A few of them also p.i.s.sed their pants, but they didn’t realize that they had wet themselves at all. Their bodies trembled non-stop as they curled up, their faces paler than white paint.
Chi Shuyan took advantage of the moment before they fainted to continue bombarding them. “And most importantly, I just realized that this great ghost can also control ghosts!” After saying that, she told them about the female nurse who had been possessed by a ghost controlled by the great ghost. “So, you brats, be prepared!”
