Chapter 302 Bitten By A Ghost
Chapter 302 Bitten By A Ghost
Fan Ehuang didn't understand what was happening at first, she looked at the dark room that was pitch black and took a sudden step back. " Mrs Fu? Brother Fu? Anyone, can you hear me?"
Though she was stupid enough to run towards Li Na's figure that suddenly appeared unscathed out of nowhere, Fan Ehuang understood that she was fooled by the ghost that was roaming inside the walls of the tomb. She turned her head to look for an exit but no matter where she looked, she only saw sturdy walls with demonic faces carved on them, long pillars stood on either side of the room, with broken pots and vats… and on each side piles of bones were scattered all over.
" M..Mrs Fu? Second sister in law? Can you hear me? I am here!" Fan Ehuang despite her bold makeup and gothic look cried and shouted for Song Yan but no matter how loud she shouted no one replied to her and neither did anyone come to save her. She opened her mouth to call for Song Yan again when she heard the sound of someone clattering their teeth, stunned Fan Ehuang turned to look around the room.
However, she saw no one. With her fists tightly clenched on her side, she carefully took a step back but with every step she took, the sound of the teeth clattering got louder and louder. Fan Ehuang looked around the room left and right as the sound become louder and louder before she placed her hands on her ears to shut off the annoying sound.
It was too much, she couldn't take it anymore… she had to run, she really have to run. Now!
She pivoted on the spot but as soon as she turned around, her gaze fell on the figure that was sticking to the pillar upside down. The thing looked like Li Na but at the same time it didn't look like Li Na, obviously with its skin missing and eyeballs popping as if they were going to fall out of the sockets at any moment—— Fan Ehuang couldn't find the resemblance of her best friend.
Like a spider, the figure came down the pillar while clattering its teeth like pincers, the more it crawled down the more horrified Fan Ehuang became and why wouldn't she —— there were missing pieces of flesh and the bones could clearly be seen, what was more Li Na or whatever it was her right hand was chewed to the point that it was squeaky clean, the joints of the hands visible to naked eye.
The figure jumped off the pillar and tilted its head as she smiled eerily causing blood to gush out of its skinned face. " Ehuang~ come let's play."
There was no way Fan Ehuang would agree to play with this thing, she covered her face as she took several steps back, she didn't want to look at the thing that was walking towards her.
" Ehuang~ aren't I pretty?" Wearing the same dress as Li Na the ghost mimicked the tone and actions of Li Na but contrary to finding it as cute as her best friend, Fan Ehuang simply found the entire thing disgusting.
" You aren't going to answer? Does that mean I am no longer pretty?" The figure blinked its eyes at Fan Ehuang and when the latter didn't say anything, the ghost's face twisted as her eyes turned hollow. " How dare you call me ugly—-"
As she shouted the ghost jumped at Fam Ehuang causing the latter to jump aside as she shouted, " You are pretty, really pretty!"
What else could she do? She was locked in an unknown room with a crazy ghost girl what else was she supposed to do?
" Heh, I am pretty?" The figure tilted her head, her momentum slowed down as she smiled and said, " Ehuang said that I am pretty that means I am really pretty aren't I, Ehuang?"
" Yes, Yes you…are really pretty " with her legs trembling Fan Ehuang's eyes darted around the room as she prayed for even the smallest opening to show itself. At this moment she was willing to even crawl out of a dog hole or jump down sewage as long as she could get away from this thing that was chasing after her.
" Then let's get pretty together!" The ghost thing jumped at Fan Ehuang again this time even faster than before, Fan Ehuang dodged her attack and tried to run away from the figure but it was too fast for her, before she knew it, the figure ricocheted off the wall it landed on and then jumped at her back. A chill like never before swept through Fan Ehuang's body and before she knew it the thing lowered its head and bit through her flesh, skin..muscles and bones altogether.
Fan Ehuang was in so much pain that her face turned white as blood dripped down her clothes, she wanted to shake the thing off but she couldn't in the end she slumped on the floor.
' This was it …this was how she was going to die.'
As she felt the thing suck and nibble on her flesh, Fan Ehunag couldn't cry in despair. She missed her mom, she missed her dad and even her annoying big brother… yet now she was going to die without seeing them even once.
Just when she thought that she would be slowly eaten by the thing on her back, the room lit up with a fiery golden glow and something rustled on her back.
A second later a shrill cry rang out in the room as footsteps approached her, surprised Fan Ehuang looked up and when her gaze fell on Song Yan's familiar face, tears instantly gushed out of her eyes. " Sec...Second hic…second sister-in-law."
" Why are you crying?" With her scythe in her hand, Song Yan helped Fan Ehuang up and then dragged her outside the room. " You are still alive be grateful unlike your friend there you didn't become an echo."
Fan Ehuang looked at the black miasma-like sticky substance on the ground and shuddered before she whipped her head and looked at Song Yan. " Was that Li Na?"
"Yes and no," Song Yan dragged her out of the room and then helped her down. "It's better for you not to know, instead we need to take care of that wound or else something might happen to you as well."
It was only then did Fan Ehuang saw that the flesh on her shoulder was rotting.
