Thriller Zone: From the Mental Hospital to the Ghostly World

At the same time, a blurry image flashed in Wusu's eyes.

He murmured:

"I saw it."

"There is a consciousness that is breaking through the boundaries of the domain."

"She is..."

"She's in another building!"

Usu's tone unusually surprised as he turned to look at Chen Yuetan:

"Back then, she lived next door to us!"

Chen Yuetan's expression changed drastically!

Only he and Wusu knew that the Wang family's three tenement buildings were all part of a ghost-making plan at the time.

Happiness Garden took away the ghost infant's corpse.

At Jixiangyuan, I met a strange child, but overall he seemed quite normal.

Ping An Yuan.....

That Ping An Yuan, the only place they had never been inside!

A terrifying image flashed through Chen Yuetan's mind—the scene he glimpsed in the corridor during his escape from Xingfuyuan!

Countless corpses, pale-faced and filled with resentment, emerged from the rooms.

He already knew at the time that the plan for Ping An Yuan had failed and all the residents had died.

Only the ghost remained, imprisoned inside.

But Chen Yuetan never expected this...

In that tenement building, there still exists the Split Mother, the "mother" of all the hair ghosts!

He guessed that his "mother" was in the domain, but he never expected that it would be the domain he had been in before!

Looking back now, the corpses that walked out of Ping An Garden all moved in sync, and their expressions and mannerisms were exactly the same.

They were like puppets being manipulated.

Just how many secrets does the Wang family hold?

Chen Yuetan stared intently at the dazed, delirious ghost before him.

“She’s reached the Yu River,” Wu Su said softly. “Very fast….”

Even though Chen Ji hadn't understood what Wu Su had said before, he knew that "Mother" was about to arrive!

His heart sank; his guess had indeed come true.

The reason for "Mother's" arrival....

Most likely, it's because the madman killed his own brother.

How could a "mother" tolerate her "children" killing each other!

Even after being tricked...

Once "Mother" arrives, Chen Ji and his companions will be met with her endless wrath.

Chen Yuetan had just used the pocket watch not long ago, and it was no longer usable.

Even if they could, in a mere 7 seconds, they couldn't stop the greedy ghost from being killed.

Now that things have come to this...

I thought of the little monkey's longing for the ghost's hair.

Thinking of the unknown abilities of "mother".

Chen Ji gritted his teeth, gripped the pen, and used his skill in real life for the first time!

This was also the first time he had tested the pen's capabilities since its initial evolution!

Chen Ji recalled again the slightly amused voice of Gui Su when the first star was lit:

[The "Waterworm" wants to tell you:]

Sometimes, a small conflict is quite "reasonable."

"Pen... let me see how you can make my fate 'reasonable'."

Chen Ji muttered to himself, pointing the pen tip at himself.

Your fate in the next ten minutes

You tried to use the monkey to steal a strand of hair.

But after communicating with his "mother," the madman realized the little monkey's true identity.

[And developed a strong aversion to the baby monkey.]

[For this reason, its body began to split apart, making it impossible for you to approach.]

[Three minutes later]

The demon's consciousness was replaced by that of his "mother".

She appeared.

She's not what you imagine; she's not angry, she's very gentle.

She smiled slightly at you.

(Note: The text below is grayed out)

You and Chen Yuetan attempted to escape.

But you didn't go very far.

[I felt the call of "Mother"]

You crave the gentle embrace of your "mother".

You and Chen Yuetan feel boundless sorrow and self-reproach because you betrayed "Mother".

Therefore, you and Chen Yuetan began angrily blaming each other.

After the struggle, you returned to where you started, but your mother had disappeared.

She was very disappointed in you, leaving behind only a single, dark strand of hair.

You voluntarily chose to become nourishment, helping the mother to nurture more children.

You lay on the ground, letting your hair split and erode your bodies...

[The following is the ending supplemented by the pen:]

【you are dead. 】

Chen Ji frowned deeply.

He tried to change the grayed-out text, but a thought told him he couldn't.

This proves.....

From the moment the gray text appeared, he had already stepped into death and could no longer change his fate!

The trigger that led to his and his uncle's deaths was actually such an ordinary sentence.

She smiled slightly at you.

After hearing all this, Chen Yuetan immediately said:

"As soon as she appeared, she spread the three delusions of greed, anger, and ignorance to us."

Like some plagues, it spreads silently, but once it takes hold, it is sure to be fatal.

And the biggest threat among them is infatuation!

Because of ignorance, one cannot distinguish right from wrong.

Only those who cannot distinguish right from wrong will mistake the split parent for their own mother.

Later, because of their longing for that false "mother's embrace," the uncle and nephew flew into a rage and killed each other.

Ultimately, it chose to become nourishment.

"No wonder she chose the mad ghost as her vessel..."

Chen Ji murmured, "In terms of their influence on people, 'ignorance' is the strongest, while 'anger' is the weakest."

No one expected that "Mother's" abilities... would be so bizarre!

There were still two and a half minutes until her arrival.

Chen Ji's brain was working at lightning speed.

After the "mother" appears, changing one's fate becomes extremely difficult.

The best way is to trick the ghost out of her hair and put it directly into the monkey's mouth, thus preventing her from descending at the source.

This was also the initial suggestion for fountain pens.

But we can't let the little monkey trick us.

The gaze fell upon that sentence:

But after communicating with his "mother," the madman realized the little monkey's true identity.

[And developed a strong aversion to the baby monkey.]

The word "spot" always made him feel that "Mother" seemed to know the little monkey.

Thinking about the monkey's attitude towards hair, and how hair could replace silk thread, Chen Ji seemed to be deep in thought.

A madman is only friendly to his own kind...

The only remaining ghost is the Wrathful Ghost.

That ghost wasn't very smart either.

After a moment's thought, Chen Ji changed the first sentence to:

[At Chen Ji's prompting, the mad ghost released the wrathful ghost from its restraints, wanting his brother to come and welcome their mother as well;]

Therefore, it was only natural that the enraged demon snatched the hair from it, and in the struggle, the hair inevitably fell to the ground nearby.

“…Is this reasonable?”

Chen Ji frowned, feeling that it was very far-fetched.

But since it can be changed, it proves that fate can be driven in this way.

But... how can he remind the madman?
