………
Liu Sheng walked into the third room. Through the moonlight shining through the window, he saw the little ghost.
However, what shocked Liu Sheng was that the moment the little ghost saw Liu Sheng, he immediately ate behind the old wooden box, lowered his head, and trembled as he muttered to himself...
" I can't see, I can't see, I can't see…"
Liu Sheng was speechless.
This…could it be a coward?
Liu Sheng couldn't help but take two steps forward. Then, the ghost trembled even more violently. It was so afraid that it almost crawled out of the wall.
The ghost didn't even dare to look up at Yagyu.
How was this a ghost? He was even more cowardly than a human…
This ghost reminded Liu Sheng of a type.
Coward!
As the name suggested, they were especially timid. Even if they were ghosts, they would be afraid when they saw people or their own kind.
This was because he was already very timid when he was alive. After he died, he became even more timid when he became a ghost, and then he became a coward.
"Stop hiding. Come out. I have something to ask you.”Liu Sheng patted the box and shouted.
The coward who was crawling at the foot of the wall with his head lowered and trembling became even more afraid. His entire soul body was stiff and did not dare to move.
There was only one thought in his mind. This person could actually see him. How terrifying!!
Liu Sheng could not help but shake his head speechlessly. As expected of a coward. He was too timid.
Liu Sheng was a human and he was a ghost. How could a ghost be afraid of a human?
" I'll say it one more time. Come out, or else..." Liu Sheng threatened. He kicked the old box away.
"Ah! Don't, don't hit me! Don't hit me!"
Coward was so frightened that he retreated repeatedly, and his voice was filled with sobs.
"I didn't say I'd hit you."
"Please, don't, don't scold me!"
Liu Sheng was speechless.
Are you afraid of scolding me?
Liu Sheng had underestimated a coward. He was too timid!
After letting the coward rest for a while, Liu Sheng asked,""How much do you know about the dry well at the east end of the village?”
" That well?!"
Upon hearing Liu Sheng's question, Coward immediately dragged out his voice and did not dare to move.
It was obvious that he was very afraid of the ghost in the dry well!
Moreover, cowards should also know the story of the dry well. Otherwise, they would not be so afraid.
"Don't be anxious. Think about it slowly. I want to hear the details of what happened."
Liu Sheng asked his ghost girlfriend Wanqiu Xia to find a chair and sat on it, waiting for the coward to recover.
As for why he asked about the ghost in the well, it had something to do with Yagyu catching ghosts. Furthermore, Liu Sheng simply wanted to know the cause and effect relationship. Otherwise, it would not be appropriate to attack like this.
The coward took a while to recover, but he still didn't dare to raise his head. Instead, he trembled and said,""If…if I tell you, you…you won't hit me?”
"Yes."
Liu Sheng nodded.
His target today was the fierce ghost in the dry well. This coward did not look like he was worth much merit points. Moreover, he would not harm anyone, so Liu Sheng could not be bothered.
Letting him live was not a big deal.
After getting Liu Sheng's answer, Coward finally had some confidence. His body stopped trembling and he slowly began to tell the story of the dry well.
As for the coward, he was so afraid even though he had never seen Liu Sheng fight. It could only be attributed to his cowardice. He did not need to use his strength to intimidate him. Just a threat was enough.
" Th-This is what happened. It…It started…It started…many years ago…"
"Don't tremble. Speak properly, or I'll punch you immediately!”
Liu Sheng hated stuttering the most.
Because it sounded really annoying.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Coward responded repeatedly, then took a deep breath and began to speak again.
"It's…it's like this!"
"A long time ago, there was a strange nursery rhyme circulating in our village. My mother killed me, my father ate me, and my sister sat under the table, picking up my bones and burying them under the cold stone.”
Liu Sheng didn't know if it was because of the hoarse voice of the coward or the bloody darkness of the nursery rhyme, but he felt goosebumps all over his body!
The nursery rhyme did not sound like a nursery rhyme, but more like a horror story.
Liu Sheng couldn't help but hold his ghost girlfriend's little hand, quietly waiting for the coward to explain.
To be honest, Liu Sheng was indeed not brave enough.
Although he was much better than before, he was still timid.
Coward sorted out his fear and explained,""The real meaning of this nursery rhyme is that after the death of a boy's mother, his father remarried, and the stepmother brought a girl.”
"One day, when his father was not at home, his stepmother told the little boy that there was an apple in the closet.”
"Just as the little boy turned around, the stepmother used an axe and chopped off the little boy's head!”
"She boiled the boy into soup. When she was eating, the father didn't see the boy. The girl hid under the table to pick up the bones. Later, the girl threw the bones into the well.”
"In the past, everyone thought that this terrifying nursery rhyme was just a story. In fact, this nursery rhyme is something that really happened! And the boy in the nursery rhyme was the ghost in the dry well! Because his bones were thrown into the dry well at the east end of the village!”
“………”
