Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 381

Chapter 381 Paper Figure

Hannah was so terrified that she cried profusely. She also jerked up in shock and bumped her head on the bottom of the bed. Her head began to swell.

Josh’s face turned pale and he reached out, wanting to huddle up with someone. In the end, it was Drake who he hugged.

Drake wanted to push him away, but maybe because he was also terrified, he was petrified under the bed.

However, none of them suffered worse than Bryson.

He turned around and stared right into that pale face of the paper figure, and while he never used vulgarities normally, he could not help but blurt out, “What the f*ck!?”

Lilly was already out of the bottom of the bed, and she hurled fireball after fireball at that paper figure.

That paper figured out an agonized scream, and soon, it turned into ashes.

The window suddenly made a sound and the red string snapped. A chicken leg fell to the ground.

Lilly scooped up the unlucky ghost, harem ghost, weakling spirit, and foolish ghost…. Even Ms. Ugly was included as Lilly hurled all of them in that direction!

“Catch him!” Lilly shouted, “Whoever gets him, you will be rewarded with a lollipop!”

“No, I will reward ten lollipops! I am not strapped for cash!” Lilly made a face that indicated that she had money to spend.

The ghosts did not know what to say. Was Lilly seriously talking about how rich she was when she was just going to reward them with some lollipops?

“Who cares about lollipops…” Foolish ghost was the first to complain.

Weakling spirit was the first to fly toward the site of concern. His eyes had a renewed focus as he said seriously, “I care!”

Unlucky ghost exclaimed, “Hey, don’t compete with me for that reward!”

Harem ghost stepped on the unlucky ghost and shot of “Stay put here!”

Foolish ghost was confused by their enthusiasm. However, he followed the other ghosts anyway.

The ghosts slit through the air with stunning speed.

They were no longer bantering and laughing amongst themselves. They were no longer taking things lightly. A murderous look appeared in their eyes-

They would never guess that this fight was what precisely led to them being part of the ghost army working directly under the Ruler of Hell!

Ms. Ugly was huffing and pulling behind them, “Hey, wait for me… Do you think I should make some noise and cheer you on?”

The paper figure had completely turned to ashes, and the room was now in darkness again.

1/4

Lilly felt that she could not catch a break at all. She begin to light up the candles once again.

Light filled the room, and something was swinging in mid-air as a shadow danced across the wall.

Bryson looked upwards and saw that the bride was once again hanging from the ceiling. There was nobody wearing that red dress. Only her head was visible.

He almost wet his pants.

“I died such a terrible death…” The bride wailed, and the red dress began flapping in the wind, “Save me… Save me…”

Everyone became silent.

Lilly simply said, “Come down by yourself.”

The ghost bride was caught red-handed. She quietly came down.

“I remember now,” She stared at the ashes, “During the night of our wedding, my husband bumped into the candle and the fire devoured him…”

Josh felt a wave of nausea sweep over him. The ghost bride had said that before, but he did not think those words had much significance.

“My husband was devoured by the flames, and he was so angry that he smashed the candle to the floor. However, the fire got bigger and his face changed… He turned into a paper figure…”

“As the fire continued to burn him, he let out a shrilling scream. Loud crackling noises began to fill the room as more paper figures popped out of nowhere…”

The bride then got gobbled up by the paper figures, leaving only her head which was somehow hung on the ceiling.

After the bride told her story, everyone was feeling crept out. Their hair was standing on end.

“Paper figures…” Josh recalled the numerous paper figures at the back of the house.

Could it be that those paper figures were getting ready to eat more people back then?

So the other characters such as the government officials, the family members of the bride, and the maids were all eaten up by them, it seemed.

Lilly looked at the chicken leg lying on the ground.

“My master told me that it’s normal for a ghost to eat someone, but it’s even scarier if a human cats another human.”

Bryson picked up Hannah and he said in a trembling voice, “So…. What is going on?”

Lilly pointed at the newly formed ashes, “The one tying the knot with the bride on the wedding night was actually not the bridegroom. It was actually one of the paper figures.”

“So, that means that there was never a bridegroom in the first place. That’s why we did not see him anywhere we searched.”

Josh was feeling intimidated, “But that paper figure looks like the bridegroom…”

Lilly shook her head, “That’s why, I don’t know what’s going on. I have to wait for Master to come back.”

After all, she was only four years old!

She had full belief that she would be more knowledgeable when she turned live next year.

“The paper figures shouldn’t be able to move on their own. Someone must be controlling them, so besides us, someone is hiding out of sight.”

She was curious how that person was, able to control so many paper figures.

They had searched through every room, but there was no suspicious person.

Bryson frowned. Only then did he realize that it was somebody else’s doing!

It would be great if that was the case.

Bryson’s eyes turned harsh and chilly. On one hand, he was really shaken up. This was the first time in his life that he was such an embarrassment.

He vowed to catch the culprit no matter what!

Josh asked, “Then, are we leaving finally?”

Lilly nodded, “Yes, we are leaving now.”

The ghost bride was absorbed by Lilly into the jar of souls.

This ghost bride must be new to the scene perhaps due to the fact that she was not awakened yet, or her curse did not activate.

Although she was a terrifying ghost, she had never brought harm to others in her young career. Or else, horror stories would spread like wildfire.

“Let’s go!” Bryson scooped up Lilly and darted outside.

They finally saw daylight. There were children screaming happily in the distance, which was a stark contrast to the cold and chilly atmosphere in the horror house.

Bryson could not really process that he was out of the horror house. It felt unreal to him.

His worldview had changed forward after a visit to the horror house…

Bryson asked, “Lilly…”

Were those ghosts that Lilly summoned real ghosts? He wanted to know.

Could ghosts come out in broad daylight?

Lilly turned to him, “What’s wrong?”

As she replied to him, she patted him on the back. Lit did he know, she was actually vanquishing all signs of bad luck from his body.

Bryson continued. “Those ghosts that flew away… Would they be able to catch the culprit?”

3/4

It was hard for him to believe.

Lilly could not say for sure, but she believed in the four ghosts without reservation!

They were really ferocious.

She assured him, “They can do it!”

Unlucky ghost, harem ghost, and the others kept chasing something that resembled a shadow. They were out of the courtyard now.

“I see him now!” Weakling spirit bellowed.

The unlucky ghost said, “He’s bald!”

Harem ghost replied, “From his bad posture and feeble frame, I’m sure he does not last long in bed!”

The other ghosts stopped talking when they heard that

That shadow in front was shrouded in darkness. He was feeling fear for the first time.

Suddenly, he flung his hand into the air, and yellow papers shot out from his arm. The papers reached the ground and transformed into paper figures! They began pouncing at the four ghosts!
