Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder
Chapter 241 The Little Taoist's Ghost King is Pretty Handsome 23
Chiyu frowned when he saw her.
Hearing her say this now makes me feel even worse.
"Those people are worse than animals."
He couldn't utter any harsher words, so he could only keep cursing the beast over and over again.
The woman shook her head and sighed, "Sometimes, living isn't necessarily better than dying."
Just look at what she saw; the men didn't treat women like human beings at all.
She told Qingyu and the others what she had seen.
“Some people have escaped before. After they were found, their legs were broken, they were chained and locked in a pigsty, and they were only allowed to move back into the house after they became pregnant.”
This is considered lucky; worse, he was beaten half to death, dragged back for a while to vent his anger, and then left the woman to die.
"There isn't a single good person in this whole village except for the women. Don't be fooled by those young boys who look innocent and harmless; they're all the men's spies."
In the past, when she went out, she was either accompanied by a man or by a boy.
Many boys in the village do not have mothers. They will lie to the children and say that their mothers abandoned them because they think the village is too poor.
That's not the case. Those women were either beaten to death or tortured to death by the men in the village. After they tormented them to death, they simply threw the bodies into the woods behind the courtyard and that was it.
"The woods behind that courtyard are actually a mass grave."
Some people have tried to escape, but they were always caught, beaten to death, and then dumped there.
Speaking of this, they thought of Wenfang, who buried someone else's bones.
Qingyu recalled what she had said to the deputy village chief during the day and felt that something was off.
A scream nearly shattered someone's eardrums.
"The sound is coming from inside the house."
The surroundings darkened again, and Zhou Wantang and the female ghost drifted toward the front yard.
Qingyu and the others quickly followed.
The inn was in complete chaos.
It turned out that Tian Tian and her friends encountered the female ghost in the stairwell again while searching for food.
To demonstrate his identity as a member of the Xuanmen sect, Wen Yanqing threw in a yellow talisman.
To everyone's surprise, the yellow talisman did not drive away the evil spirit; instead, it angered it.
The female ghost rushed out and grabbed Wen Yanqing by the neck. The others screamed in fright when they saw the female ghost dressed in a white dress and embroidered shoes.
Just then, Jiang Yanlang, who had just arrived, entered the room and saw Wen Yanqing being held by a female ghost. He hurriedly took out his yellow talisman and peach wood sword to exorcise the ghost.
Seeing this, the female ghost grabbed Wen Yanqing and ran towards the stairs. She was extremely fast, and Jiang Yanlang could only catch up.
When Chi Xing and Qing Yu arrived, they saw Tian Tian and the others being held back by other female ghosts, preventing them from going upstairs.
At this moment, Zhou Wantang and another female ghost arrived.
Zhou Wantang is the mistress of this house, and the other ghosts will treat her with respect because she gave them a place to stay.
But times have changed. These humans actually want to harm them, so it's impossible for them not to fight back.
"Stop! Let them go."
Zhou Wantang issued a threatening statement to the ghosts.
Those ghosts were filled with resentment, and almost all of them were vengeful spirits. They were already very annoyed by being disturbed, and Wen Yanqing's talisman just now ignited their anger.
No matter how Zhou Wantang tried to persuade them, it was no use. They wouldn't let them go until they were hurt.
The appearance of a figure forced them to let go.
Chi Xing stood protectively behind Qing Yu, unleashing his aura upon the ghosts.
"Ghost, Ghost King, spare my life!"
That night, the female ghost guarding Qingyu's door knelt down upon seeing Chixing.
The ghost behind him was so overwhelmed by this aura that its soul felt like it was about to fall apart, and it had no choice but to kneel down as well.
"Whoosh, whoosh—great, so many ghosts."
Wang Pingyang and his companions were already terrified.
Besides those who appeared last night, there were others wearing different styles of clothing, all in tattered clothes, some missing arms or legs, some with disfigured faces, and some covered in wounds...
Even people who are clearly terrified of ghosts feel a tightness in their chests after seeing their miserable state.
Whose precious daughters are these? How could they be tortured like this?
Chi Xing glanced at the ghosts, and Zhou Wantang's eyes were full of trepidation, but she still stepped forward.
"I'm sorry, they didn't mean to hurt anyone, please don't make things difficult for them."
This is their home; they're just trying to protect themselves.
If these people hadn't come with Chiyu, they probably would have become vengeful ghosts and started killing people long ago.
The world has been unkind to them; they have long since become demons, and values and morals are irrelevant to them.
But these people don't seem to be very bad; they're just afraid.
Originally, the female ghosts only wanted to scare these people away and had no intention of taking their lives.
But just now, Wen Yanqing angered someone with a fiery temper.
"Help me!!"
That was Wen Yanqing's voice.
The cameras here were turned off when the ghost appeared.
So only those present knew what had just happened.
Everyone was stunned to see these ghosts kneeling before Akahoshi.
Upon seeing this, Qingyu quickly stepped forward.
"Get up quickly, let's go up and take a look first."
"Yes, yes, Senior Wen has been arrested." Zhu Sen was also anxious.
They are both artists under the same company, so if something happens to Wen Yanqing, he won't be able to explain it to them.
The group hurriedly ran upstairs.
Qingyu waved to Zhou Wantang, telling her to hide the ghosts away.
They were afraid that Jiang Yanlang might go crazy and pull out something.
Akahoshi knew this was a good opportunity for revenge.
250: [Yes, yes, this is it. Originally, Qing Yu was supposed to go up, but this time it was Jiang Yanlang. I just wonder if Wen Yanqing will use Jiang Yanlang as a stepping stone like he did with Qing Yu.]
Chi Xing led Qing Yu behind them.
"Xingxing, I have a feeling something bad is going to happen." Qingyu said uneasyly.
Chixing reached out and put her arm around him, saying gently, "With me here, nothing will happen."
Even if it means destroying the world, Chixing would never let Qingyu get hurt.
We walked up to the fourth floor rooftop.
Wen Yanqing was being choked by the female ghost, and Jiang Yanlang took out a peach wood sword and brandished it at the female ghost.
"Heh, you useless piece of trash, you think you're worthy to challenge me?"
The female ghost reached out and grabbed the peach wood sword in her hand.
The hand with long fingernails was burned by the peach wood sword, making a sizzling sound.
But the female ghost's expression grew increasingly excited.
"You think you can get me with this little bit? Dream on!"
She suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Yanlang.
"Ah!"
As soon as Jiang Yanlang cried out, he was grabbed by the female ghost's other hand.
At this moment, the female ghost was gripping a person's neck with one hand, and said coldly:
"You two are truly devoted to each other. Unfortunately, I can only release one of you. You decide for yourselves: who lives and who dies?"
Wen Yanqing's cheeks were already flushed from being pinched, and upon hearing this, he burst into tears.
"Brother Lang, I want to live, I don't want to die, sob sob..."
The feeling of being on the verge of death was so desperate that Wen Yanqing didn't want to experience it again.
