Chapter 84 Talking with Ghosts
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Crawling out of the warm bed at 2 AM wasn’t Fang Niu’s original plan.
If possible, he simply didn’t want to go to the toilet in the middle of the night.
But, he truly couldn’t hold it in anymore, his belly was about to burst from the pain, even letting out smelly farts from time to time, causing his *ss to tighten by itself.
After dawdling in his bed for a long time, seeing that his crap was about to come out, he didn’t dare be lazy anymore and quickly draped over his coat, grabbing his phone and hurrying to the yard.
In the rural areas, the toilets were located outside.
He ran over to the large door, and through the large door leading to the yard, there was an outhouse with a squat toilet.
He immediately ran to go in, closing the door and taking off his pants. Then, the sounds of unspeakable objects that had been held in for a long time could be heard falling to the bowl.
In the next second, his stomach felt better by a lot.
As he was excreting the hideous reincarnations of his food, Fang Niu felt gloomy inside the toilet. So, he opened his phone and selected high-definition pictures of beautiful women.
Even if he were currently in the toilet, watching pretty women still felt pleasant. Just as he was watching them, he would never anticipate that these naked bodies would unexpectedly have a sinister ghost among them, scaring him to almost dropping his phone on the latrine.
Steadying his hold on the phone, Fang Niu was so angry in his heart that he cursed, offensively greeting his eighteen dead ancestors.
Then, he resentfully closed the webpage and didn’t dare look at the post with a ghost image again.
Turning off the browser, Fang Niu opened a forum and began to read the entertaining posts. Reading for a while, a notification suddenly popped out of his messaging app, causing him to tap it curiously.
[Guess Who I Am: You’re awake.]
Seeing this familiar screen name, Fang Niu immediately realized who this was.
This person called ‘Guess Who I Am’ was a die-hard fan of Bai Cui’s live broadcasts and had been part of the live broadcast group from early on. This fan was also normally super active in the group.
Even for Yanlang Village, it was also ‘Guess Who I Am’ who had introduced it to them, he or she was just that big of a fan.
Although this ‘Guess Who I Am’ was poor, not even giving a single tip, and they didn’t know whether the person was a guy or a girl, this type of fan couldn’t be treated in a perfunctory manner, or else letting this fan transition from an admirer to an anti-fan would be even more terrifying.
In any case, he was still going to be squatting over the latrine for quite some time, so chatting with this fan was also fine.
Thus, Fang Niu grasped his phone and directly typed these words——
[I Am Little Tanned Brother: I’m awake, what’s up?]
[Guess Who I Am: That post is true, Yanlang Village really does have ghosts!]
Seeing this, Fang Niu was speechless. He genuinely felt that this fan was bored out of his mind, maybe always had intentions of scaring others?
He sneered, replying on his phone, “Big brother, don’t go scaring people in the middle of the night. I’m trying to crap right now, and you’re scaring the sh*t out of me!”
[Guess Who I Am: You don’t believe me?]
[I Am Little Tanned Brother: An individual has the option to not believe in something. You should stop saying these to scare people in the middle of the night.]
Fang Niu and ‘Who I Am’ chatted idly, and when he felt that he would still be squatting over the toilet for a long time, he prepared to mute the chat and not talk with this night owl that still wasn’t asleep.
But, as he chatted, he felt that there was something amiss.
A new notification firmly drew his attention.
[Guess Who I Am: The village really has ghosts, because I was the one that published that post.]
Seeing this, Fang Niu inadvertently shocked.
He instantly remembered the old granny that ate the live chick, remembered the curious child playing with his ball in the cemetery at midnight, as well as what the child repeated, that bloody nursery rhyme.
Originally, when he fell asleep, he put all these weird instances at the back of his mind, quickly forgetting them.
But now, seeing the word ‘ghosts,’ a hint of uneasiness surfaced again, making him start to suspect everyone.
‘Could it be that Yanlang Village really has ghosts?’
At this moment, Fang Niu didn’t care about his pooping anymore. He maintained his squatting position while also uninterruptedly typed words down on his phone, wanting to ask for more clarity.
[I Am Little Tanned Brother: Brother, could it be that you’re the Yanlang villager that escaped? Did people truly go missing in your village?]
[Guess Who I Am: A lot of people disappeared.]
[I Am Little Tanned Brother: But, the other people here say that basically, none have gone missing in this village. You’re not trying to scare me, right?]
[Guess Who I Am: They all don’t remember anymore.]
Seeing this, Fang Niu actually believed it a bit.
In ghost films, after a ghost killed a person, the protagonist losing their memory was a common occurrence.
If the village truly had ghosts, then there was also the possibility of ghosts having the ability to alter memories.
However, thinking until this point, he felt somewhat indignant, typing these words at once, “If you knew that there were ghosts, then why didn’t you tell us earlier? Even letting us go here to hold a live broadcast!”
[Guess Who I Am: There are ghosts, that’s why I wanted you to go.]
[Guess Who I Am: To let you come here, so I can kill you!]
It’s a joke, he must surely be joking!
Obviously, it was written in the system’s default settings in bold characters, and the font was also on the default setting, but these two simple lines led Fang Niu to be absolutely terrified.
Right at this moment, a gust of wind blew, making him shiver.
He suddenly looked around, landing his eyes on the small window inside the toilet. Sounds of wind were blowing past the window, but fortunately, there was no one there.
He must be intentionally scaring me!
Fang Niu was slightly relieved, but his state of mind was completely disrupted by ‘Guess Who I Am.’
Neither he nor Bai Cui was timid since having little to no courage would mean that they couldn’t make supernatural live broadcasts.
Yet, with the preconceived notion that ghosts don’t exist in this world, the circumstances surrounding Yanlang Village were indeed strange, making him, a large man, a little uneasy.
It was more than fine if ‘Guess Who I Am’ didn’t say anything else, because, the more he said something, the more Fang Niu would indulge in his flights of fantasy. And, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he got, even nearly being intimidated to death by his own speculation.
While only wearing a coat, Fang Niu couldn’t help but shiver from head to toe.
He chuckled, thinking that this ‘Guess Who I Am’ was indeed mentally deranged that couldn’t possibly bring him into a ditch.
Although he felt a bit restless, he instinctively told the fan to not ask any more questions. Fang Niu was afraid that the more the fan asked, the more he’d feel scared, which would result in him not sleeping the entire night.
So, he decided to not acknowledge this basket case anymore and would reply to him tomorrow morning.
However, he hadn’t typed this yet when two messages suddenly popped out of his screen——
[Guess Who I Am: Do you want to see a ghost?]
[Guess Who I Am: I’m standing outside the door.]
Fang Niu trembled with trepidation as he cautiously looked towards the door, but since the latrine’s door was made of wood, he simply couldn’t see what was happening outside.
‘How did he know that I was near a door?’
‘Oh yes, he must be deceiving me! I mentioned earlier that I was in the toilet, and there’s surely a door near it.’
However, in the next instant, Fang Niu abruptly thought of something.
He backtracked their conversation like a mad man to look at their previous messages.
He went rigid as he stared at ‘Guess Who I Am’s’ first message, his expression looking stupefied as if he had quickly died and turned into a zombie, his eyes were full of dread!
“You’re awake.”
As it turned out, this wasn’t a question but a sentence.
The person who sent this message wasn’t completely sure if he was awake or not, rather, he was certain that he was already awake!
‘Who? Who exactly is this person?’
‘Could it be that he really is…’
Fang Niu quivered in fear. He was so scared that he was unsettled when holding his phone.
But soon, two new messages that had just popped up made him feel even more scared than he did earlier.
[Guess Who I Am: Open the door!]
[Guess Who I Am: OPEN THE DOOR NOW!]
Fang Niu set his phone to the side, not daring to look at it again.
He felt absolutely terrified, so he tore some pieces of the yellow straw paper with his teeth, carelessly wiped his butt, and then hurriedly put on his pants. He squatted on the side, shivering, not risking to flush the water, even more so to go outside.
He had no visuals of the outside, but he could sense that there really was a person there!
In other words, there’s a ghost standing outside the door!
Fang Niu shuddered at the thought of a ghost guarding the door.
He held his breath, not making a single sound, for fear that the ghost would barge in.
Fang Niu curled up and shivered inside the toilet, making up his mind that he would wait until morning or wait until another person to use the toilet before he would leave.
However, not long after, a thing that made his eyes split happened——
The door was slowly opening!
Fang Niu suddenly thought of something and quickly planned on calling his girlfriend, hoping for Bai Cui to call the group of travelers up to help save him.
But, as he entered his passcode and unlocked his phone, the door was completely open.
Fang Niu stiffly lifted his head and saw a sinister mutilated ghost through the door. He opened his mouth wide to call for help, but no sound came through.
The ghost choked him.
He was akin to a dead chicken, desperately struggling in the air. Yet, what made him even more terrified was that no matter how much he kicked around, his surroundings remained silent.
He ferociously kicked the large water containment unit, but it was as if the sound was absorbed, disappearing without a trace.
Everything seemed like a mime theater, and he was the clumsy clown carrying out an amusing performance.
Fang Niu thoroughly lost all hope.
With the sinister ghost still clutching on his throat, his face gradually swelled purple, and his eyes that were wide from fear closed as he slowly lost consciousness…
The sinister ghost threw Fang Niu to the ground like he was garbage.
And on the ice-cold ground, Fang Niu was similar to a deflated balloon, his flesh continuing to sink, and soon, his bones were nowhere to be found, only leaving a thin hollow shell of a person.
The sinister ghost stood at the side as it conveniently grabbed the hollow shell and trembled in the air.
In a short while, the deflated hollow skin was filling with air, swelling like a large balloon, bulging out, and in a blink of an eye, the human shell returned to Fang Niu’s appearance.
Other than its vicious eyes, the sinister ghost was just like Fang Niu, and there was nothing else different from this ‘Fang Niu’ and the original.
His eyes, his nose, his mouth… even his clothes were exactly the same.
The sinister ghost put Fang Niu down and quickly disappeared out of sight.
As for ‘Fang Niu,’ he revealed an evil expression, but first, he went back to the toilet and used the water ladle to flush the latrine.
Then, he pulled the door open with a heavy strength and closed the door, as though he had just finished using the toilet, grabbing his phone and naturally passed through the yard, going back to his room with the sleeping Bai Cui and laying down beside her…
…
“Fang Niu?” In the East Room, Kenta asked using a whisper.
Bai Yan nodded his head without making another sound, continuing to watch the bottom opening of the window. Hearing the sounds made, Fang Niu must have gotten up to go to the toilet, which wasn’t really out of the ordinary.
However, in the end, he was out on his own, so they still shouldn’t let their guard down.
Taking note of this matter, Bai Yan continued to stare at the window without moving. Occasionally, he would take a peek at the others in the room to make sure nothing unexpected had happened, that no one had silently disappeared and had been swapped off.
The endless night watch had finally ended.
It was exactly five o’clock.
Bai Yan was tired beyond words. He rubbed his slightly red eyes and shook the sleeping Ye Shangyu awake, “Stop sleeping and change shifts.”
Ye Shangyu was in a daze but immediately got up and opened her eyes.
As she sobered up, her eyes regained focus, seeing Bai Yan point at the window, indicating to her to look over there.
Then, Bai Yan laid on the bed and exhaustedly closed his eyes. His quick breaths turned into slow even ones, and even the roosters crowing at the chicken coop in the yard didn’t wake up from his dreaming state…
When someone had woken him up, it was already 10:30 AM.
