MTL - Top Horror Novelist-Chapter 15

The cold air hit from behind, and the cool touch on the back of the neck was like a window screen.

Chi Yiyin knew that the female ghost was standing behind him, coming for the hindered revenge.

As long as he moves lightly, his head and body will separate.

He quickly glanced around, and the players didn't realize it. It seemed that he was the only one who triggered the female ghost, and only he could feel the existence of the female ghost in the spirit state behind his back.

Chi Yiyin made a decision immediately. He took out the red card, pretending that he was looking for the hints on the card, but made a dent on it with the other end of the pen.

【Killing your aunt, will your hatred really be settled? Miss, now I am you, I feel the same as you, try to believe me. 】

The sharp nails were on his neck, and if they moved a little further, they would pierce his skin.

But the ghost still stopped.

The handwriting on the card gradually disappeared, and the card became smooth again. Then, new handwriting appeared.

[Why! You got in my way and I won't trust you anymore. 】

Although I don't believe it, I am willing to communicate... The young lady who has received a new school education is actually a polite and kind person.

Chi Yiyin smiled slightly, and wrote: [In front of the housekeeper, you didn't save me, but I still trust you, we reached a cooperation, didn't we? To you, it makes no difference if your aunt dies one day later, why don't you give me this chance and let me show you. If I break my promise, it will not be too late to kill me by then. 】

Thinking of the failure that he wanted to write the female ghost in his notes just now, he paused, and then said: 【Have you ever had a time when people around you didn't believe you no matter how you explained it? That's how I feel right now. 】

After these words fell, Chi Yiyin frowned instantly, and the aversion to pain appeared in his eyes.

The female ghost scratched the skin of his neck, feeling agitated.

But it didn't kill him, but retreated slowly.

The surrounding temperature also began to rise.

All the handwriting on the red card disappeared, as if nothing had happened just now.

But Chi Yiyin knew that he had just passed between life and death, and he also verified his guess by the way.

The last sentence was not that he was complaining to the female ghost, but because he suspected that the eldest lady didn't like this marriage and even killed her family with her own hands. Perhaps, it was because she found something wrong, but the family didn't believe what she said. the words said.

Chi Yiyin put himself in the same position as the female ghost, and reminded the female ghost of her own experience, and was reluctant to trust him.

—He knows very well that preventing the female ghost from killing his aunt will inevitably attract the hatred of the female ghost, but he has the opportunity to find out the truth behind his aunt because of this.

On balance, he chose the more interesting path.

But when Chi Yiyin put away the card, he suddenly felt that his calf was pulled suddenly, and the fine chill spread upwards, and something cold and soft held his ankle.

He froze, then slowly lowered his head, and suddenly lifted the tablecloth from the floor—

The little ghost lay on his knees, slowly raised his head in the darkness, grinned his mouth all the way to the bottom of his ears, his eyes were curved, and smiled silently at him.

But this child's face... has no facial features, only holes for eyes and mouth, floating in the dark, eerie and permeating.

Chi Yiyin's pupils constricted instantly.

[Sloppy! I was so frightened to death that I suddenly faced this thing that filled the screen, and almost died on the spot! ]

[Damn it! I quickly lifted my legs onto the chair. ]

"What's wrong?"

Li Li's voice came.

Chi Yiyin immediately forced himself to regain his composure, and when he looked up at Li Li, his expression was normal.

"nothing."

He pointed to his feet: "People who don't like banquets always want to hide somewhere?"

Li Li looked along, and there was nothing at Chi Yiyin's feet.

He squinted his eyes, but still smiled again: "It seems that Mr. Chi is not only obsessed with cleanliness, but also a little introverted."

Chi Yiyin nodded calmly: "It's better to say that I just prefer to explore inwardly. After all, there are too few interesting things outwardly, and there are too many ignorant people."

Li Li smiled and said, "Like Ah Si?"

By raising his glass, he avoided everyone's eyes and said in a low voice: "You know very well that we made a deal on Ah Si's matter, and the truth about my aunt..."

Chi Yiyin glanced at his watch, Li Li understood and left temporarily.

When all the players gathered around the NPC to find clues, Chi Yiyin lifted the tablecloth again and looked down slowly.

The smell of blood and mold instantly hit the face.

Under the tablecloth, it's like another world.

The pool of blood flowing all over the ground reflected faintly under the light, and maggots squirmed in the black and red rotting blood and climbed onto the palm soaked in the pool of blood.

Chi Yiyin followed the maggot, only to find that palm...he had seen it before.

Just when the youngest brother came to play with him.

But now, the child was lying on the ground with his eyes wide open, looking straight at Chi Yiyin outside the tablecloth, like two cloudy glass beads.

Half of his face has been rotted, revealing the dark red flesh and bones under the skin. The flesh and blood are like melted asphalt, shattered in a pool of blood like mud.

Not only this child, Chi Yiyin also saw two other corpses.

The older brother has turned into a mummy with curled fingers like chicken feet, while the younger sister...

She turned into a puddle of minced meat, as if being chopped into minced meat by someone.

After recognizing the owners of the three corpses, Chi Yiyin was startled, and looked up calmly to look around.

The three younger brothers and sisters were still lively chatting around the aunt. They seemed to like this aunt very much. Even the younger sister, who is full of malice towards her older sister, looks like a normal little girl in front of her aunt, innocent and well-behaved.

The banquet hall was full of excitement, but under the tablecloth were the bones of three children.

The rest of the players didn't notice the rotting flesh and blood under the tablecloth, and all their attention was on the key NPC aunt.

When Chi Yiyin looked down again, he only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and there was nothing under the tablecloth.

There were no empty eyes looking at him, no flesh and blood, just dusty wooden floors.

...the tragedy of this dungeon has been there since the beginning.

Chi Yiyin slowly put down the tablecloth with a heavy heart.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that perhaps no one could clear the dungeon—how can a person bring the dead back to life?

The prompts given by the system have been hinting to the player that as long as the wish of Master Ma is fulfilled and the family is reunited, the dungeon can be cleared.

But the problem is, this family...

long dead.

Only the bones were left in the old house, rotting to this day.

Up to now, Chi Yiyin has finally been able to confirm that the Ma family in this dungeon is the haunted house he explored before.

In reality, there is a famous story about that haunted house, which the locals call "Hate Marriage".

Parents to enrich people.

A hundred years ago, the young lady in the haunted house was married to a man she didn't like by her parents. She committed suicide on the night of her marriage, turned into a ghost and returned home, killing her parents, relatives and all the servants, even the guests at home at that time were not spared. Pass.

The screams continued until dawn, but the neighbors in the neighborhood thought it was the noise of the wedding banquet. Only one person thought it was strange and went out to check, but saw a person in a red wedding dress reflected in the window.

The woman was covered in red as if she had been dyed with fresh blood. She stood behind the window and stared coldly at the outside, while the blood splashed on the wall, staining the white wall red.

The man screamed and ran home in terror, only daring to go out after dawn.

When people pushed open the heavily locked door, the corpse immediately fell down. What they saw was layers upon layers of corpses all over the ground.

Rumors about the mansion also spread, the blood on the walls of the mansion could not be washed away, and the faces were still printed on the walls, twisted hideously, like the last struggle and roar before death, it was creepy to see.

Some people also said that at twelve o'clock at night, they could hear screams and begging for mercy from the house, and occasionally a woman's cry.

The local people said that this is the crying of the married daughter, who committed suicide at midnight wearing a red wedding dress, which is the most vicious and indefatigable. Everyone who enters the house will be killed by the ghost.

Therefore, since then, no one has dared to approach the house, and it has been deserted.

The story that Chi Yiyin learned in reality was quite different from the dungeon reminder given by the system. Although he doesn't trust the system, the rumors are also exaggerated and untrue. Perhaps the stories on both sides are half true and half false.

But the only truth is—

The young lady in that family did die because of the marriage.

And the person who caused all this was right in front of his eyes. Since the aunt came to the door with a marriage contract, the whole family was dragged into the whirlpool of death.

The chill slowly spread upwards along the ankle, Chi Yiyin raised his eyelashes, and looked coldly at his aunt across the long table.

The aunt didn't think there was anything wrong at all, she was still laughing and telling her own story with the three children, and heard them exclaim again and again.

But when Chi Yiyin fixed her eyes on her aunt, her aunt soon noticed something, and her eyes were full of smiles.

Because Chi Yiyin went out to greet her aunt and saved her again, so for her aunt, among several "sisters", Chi Yiyin's initial favorability is the highest.

"Yuze, I was too busy talking to the younger ones, and I didn't take care of you for a while."

My aunt stood up apologetically, and walked towards Chi Yiyin: "You didn't even tell your aunt, how was it when you were studying in Shanghai? Do you have any boys you like?"

With Auntie's action, all the other players looked at Chi Yiyin in unison, full of doubt and jealousy.

Chi Yiyin turned a blind eye, stood up calmly and said: "Don't worry about my affairs, Auntie, you haven't seen my mother yet, right? I just want to go to see my mother's condition, together?"

Auntie frowned, a little annoyed, she didn't seem to care about her sister's illness.

But when Chi Yiyin said this, she couldn't refuse in front of the junior, so she forced a smile: "Okay."

Although Chi Yiyin doesn't like her aunt, she is very satisfied with the momentum she borrowed from her.

The housekeeper didn't want "sister" to see Mrs. Ma's family at all. If they went to investigate now, it would be equivalent to leaving the banquet before the end and the elders were still there, which might trigger something.

Although Chi Yiyin wasn't afraid, he was also too lazy to make a fuss.

But with my aunt around, the situation is quite different.

The aunt took Chi Yiyin to the housekeeper and asked about his wife's current location. The housekeeper looked at Chi Yiyin bitterly, as if blaming him for causing trouble.

But due to the existence of his aunt, and because Chi Yiyin had already controlled a part of the housekeeper, the housekeeper had no choice but to bow down and respectfully ask them to leave with him.

The players watched Chi Yiyin a few steps ahead of him, unable to hide their resentment and jealousy.

They also wanted to go with Chi Yiyin, but were stopped by the faceless servant.

These sturdy servants built a human wall around the banquet hall, silently but firmly refusing the players to leave.

The players who wanted to leave were all entangled by the three younger siblings who were still in the banquet hall.

"Sister, where are you going?"

The younger sister smiled and grabbed the player's hand tightly. The player grinned in pain. When he lowered his head, he saw that his hands were covered in blood, and his flesh and blood disappeared, leaving only bones.

"The banquet is not over yet, it would be too impolite for my sister to leave just like that."

The older brother blocked the door, grinning and smiling at the player, but showing his fangs, his voice was rough and hoarse: "Don't you want to spend more time with us, sister."

Li Li's heart skipped a beat, and when he sensed something was wrong, he immediately wanted to smash the window and leave. This is a grand feast!

But as soon as he jumped onto the windowsill, he felt a cold arm hug his leg.

He lowered his head, facing a pale and bloodless face.

The child grinned at him, his eyes were empty and lifeless, like cloudy and cold glass beads.

"Sister, play with me..."

…

After leaving the banquet living room, Chi Yiyin realized that the sky outside was getting dark very quickly. It was obviously not yet six o'clock, but it was already pitch black.

Red lanterns have been lit in the house, and the rows of houses look really prosperous.

But against the white walls and black tiles, to Chi Yiyin, it looks like the bloodstains and handprints smeared all over the walls that he saw in a haunted house.

It seems that this is not the red light, but the blood spilled all over the house.

The housekeeper quickly brought the two of them to Mrs. Ma's room.

As Chi Yiyin guessed, except for the embarrassing elder sister, all members of the Ma family lived in the main building, and Mrs. Ma's bedroom was just across the corridor behind the banquet hall.

Just when Chi Yiyin was about to push the door open, the butler suddenly reached out and slapped the door panel with a "bang!"

He looked at Chi Yiyin sadly, grinned and said, "Miss, Madam is seriously ill, you have to be careful...don't disturb Madam."

My aunt also looked at the door in disgust, and covered her mouth and nose, as if she knew something.

Chi Yiyin smiled calmly: "You don't need to worry about it."

His outstretched palm stopped in front of the doorknob for a moment, then he became firm again and pushed the door open.

"Crackling..."

The door seemed to hit something, and there was a sound of bones rolling, like a head rolling on the wooden floor.
