Chapter 396: Blood Water
“Hey, Zhuang Yutong, wake up! Wake up! All you do is sleep, it’s morning already, wake up!”
Ning Shu was shoved awake. The first thing she saw upon opening her eyes was a sinister purplish face filled with knife wounds hovering right above her. Disheveled strands of hair seemed to fall on her face as the she stared wide-eyed at the dilated bloodshot eyes in front of her.
Ning Shu hastily sat up and hugged her blankets. She had to practically shove her fist into her mouth to stop herself from screaming. Ning Shu covered her head with the blankets. Although she knew that she was just hiding from reality, she seriously didn’t want to see such a terrifying scene.
The surrounding temperature seemed to drop and a chill seeped into her skin. Ning Shu shuddered. Frick, this was terrifying!
“Zhuang Yutong, what are you doing now?” Zhang Yuyan pulled away Ning Shu’s blankets. “Is there something wrong with you? If you’re ill, go see a doctor!”
Ning Shu was stunned for a moment to see Zhang Yuyan. She looked around but didn’t see that female ghost from earlier. They all said that people were the most likely to see things that they shouldn’t see right after they woke up.
The female ghost had been right where Zhang Yuyan was currently standing. Could it be that the female ghost was following Zhang Yuyan right now?
Ning Shu wiped at the cold sweat on her forehead. Her heart was still beating furiously. A few more scares like this would probably kill her.
Zhang Yuyan glanced at Ning Shu disdainfully. “Lin Qianqian said that there’a party tonight. You’re going too.”
“What party?” asked Ning Shu. She was practically transparent in this dorm. Most of the time, none of the three would tell her to come along for events.
Zhang Yuyan was a little annoyed. When she got irritated, a trace of black smoke appeared near her brows. Zhang Yuyan said disdainfully, “It’s just a simple college party, are you going or not? Don’t worry, we won’t ask you to pay. There’ll be someone to foot the bill.”
Ning Shu nodded. “I’ll go.”
If they all went to the party, she’d be left alone in the dorm. She had to admit that she was a little scared. Was that female ghost from earlier the Ouija spirit?
Ning Shu thought for a moment, then asked, “Zhang Yuyan, have you been feeling like anything is off lately? Like not feeling well anywhere?”
“No? There’s nothing.” Zhang Yuyan crossed her arms in a very arrogant way.
Ning Shu couldn’t tell if the female ghost was still next to Zhang Yuyan.
After Zhang Yuyan told Ning Shu about the party, she picked up her leather bag and left. Ning Shu’s limbs still felt a little weak and she lay on the bed for a good while before finally getting down and heading into the restroom with a basin to wash her face.
When she opened the facet, a piercing smell of rot instantly spilled out. She looked down and saw that dark red blood was flowing out of the facet. The stench was enough to make a person retch. Ning Shu was so startled that she hastily threw the basin away and the bloody water splashed onto the wall, spreading the stench even further.
Ning Shu’s scalp was prickling as the figure of a woman slowly appeared in the mirror. It was the same woman that she had seen earlier. Ning Shu immediately turned around to check her surroundings. There was no one else in the restroom, but the ghost in the mirror was still there. The knife wounds on her face slowly rotted until her entire face was unbearable to look at. She opened her mouth and roared, then seemed to fly out of the mirror towards Ning Shu.
Ning Shu tried to block with her arms, then turned and ran. However, an extremely cold sensation entered her body, making her so cold that her body felt numb.
Ning Shu inwardly cursed. Frick! This ma’am has no relationship with you and hadn’t done anything to you, yet after you died, you were going around killing innocent people. You freaking deserved the end of having your soul completely destroyed by a Daoist priest!
It took quite a while for her to regain sensation in her body. She opened the window to let the sunlight in, but still couldn’t feel any warmth. After having such strong yin energy flood into her body, even if she didn’t end up being pushed into the lake, she still wouldn’t have long to live.
Ning Shu thought about it, then decided to see if this body could practice the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. If she could train this body’s foundations a little, she could help this body recover from the damage of that yin energy.
To her delight, although this body’s foundations weren’t very good, it was much better than that of Mu Yanmeng’s.
