Chapter 138: Burial Mound, Wang Xuewen’s Scream

Wang Xuewen woke up in a daze and found it strange that Qi Hao and the others were staring at him nervously. His mind was blank and the pain in his back from time to time was particularly uncomfortable. He wanted to scratch his back, but couldn’t move for a moment.

Wang Xuewen said weakly to Qi Hao and the others, “Haozi, I want to use the restroom!”

As he spoke, he tried to get up, but found that he couldn’t move a finger. He was a bit anxious in his heart, afraid that he was experiencing some sort of aftereffect. “What’s wrong with me? Why can’t I move? Wasn’t I fine just now?”

The more Wang Xuewen thought about it, the more anxious he became. Chi Shuyan was afraid that he would work himself into a fury and scare himself, so she just told him to calm down first. She then removed the Immobilization Talisman and told Qi Hao and Lu Chengfu to accompany Wang Xuewen to the restroom first, and also to stop him from scratching his back or looking in the mirror.

Qi Hao and Lu Chengfu agreed nervously.

After the two accompanied Wang Xuewen to the washroom, the other three were the only ones left in the ward. The more Zhu Bocheng thought about Wang Xuewen, the more anxious he became. Si Yinghua was already dead, and it would be hard for them to give an account to the Si family. If the Wang family was added to the list… Zhu Bocheng’s head hurt just thinking about it.

Although he kept scolding Wang Xuewen that brat on the surface, he was actually very fond of him. This boy might be a bit of a miscreant on ordinary days, but he had a good character.

Zhu Bocheng got goosebumps when he thought about the two strange faces on Wang Xuewen’s back and was very worried at the same time. Now that the boys weren’t around, Zhu Bocheng hurriedly asked Chi Shuyan, “Sister Shuyan, did you see anything on Wang Xuewen’s back? Is it serious? Is it serious? That damn thing won’t grow on Haozi, Chengfu, and Chongying’s backs too, right? Or will it grow on anyone who goes to that kind of burial mound?”

The more Zhu Bocheng thought about it, the more scared he became. He couldn’t imagine the disgusting appearance of that damn thing growing out of his back at all.

Chi Shuyan saw that Zhu Bocheng was scaring himself so much that his face turned pale and he shivered, which was a stark contrast to the extraordinarily calm and silent man next to him.

Chi Shuyan was afraid that Zhu Bocheng would really scare himself to death, so she said, “Nothing of the sort, Brother Zhu. Didn’t you hear what Young Master Qi and Young Master Lu said? They know the two faces on Wang Xuewen’s back.”

Zhu Bocheng was very puzzled.

Qi Zhenbai, however, suddenly opened his mouth and ordered her to change how she addressed “Young Master Qi”: “Qi Hao; that boy will also be your cousin from now on!”

Chi Shuyan was confused for a moment, not understanding what he meant. Zhu Bocheng immediately got it, however, and his eyes darted back and forth between their faces.

Although Haozi jokingly asked when the two would register their marriage, in Zhu Bocheng’s opinion, his best friend still had a way to go in courting his wife. Who would have thought that they would suddenly become strangely closer on a trip? If it wasn’t for the fact that the timing and location weren’t right, he would definitely have pried out some gossip about their relationship from Zhenbai’s mouth.

Chi Shuyan didn’t reply to the man in front of her, but continued to answer Zhu Bocheng, “Brother Zhu, have you heard of ghost face boils and human face boils?”

Without waiting for Zhu Bocheng’s reply, Chi Shuyan continued, “The former is a Gu, while the latter is mostly retribution for those who have committed too many atrocities and evil deeds. The two faces on Young Master Wang’s back should be human face boils!”

Zhu Bocheng immediately retorted, “Sister Shuyan, you’re mistaken about that Wang Xuewen kid. He looks carefree normally, but he really has no bad intentions. How could he have done anything evil? I can’t guarantee anything about the others, but this kid grew up under my watch. How can I not tell good from bad? If you don’t believe me, you can ask Zhenbai. Zhenbai has a particularly accurate eye for people. You can ask him!”

When Chi Shuyan saw Qi Zhenbai frown slightly and look at her with raised eyebrows, she continued in an unhurried tone, “I was referring to the majority just now, as well as a minority. For example, someone like Wang Xuewen was unlucky enough to be possessed and kill people. The deceased died horribly with too much resentment, so all the resentment was directed at him, which led to the formation of human…” face sores.

Before Chi Shuyan could finish speaking, there was a blood-curdling scream of extreme horror from the restroom. Who else could it be but Wang Xuewen?
