Yin Shou Shu

Chapter 64 Her Suffering
There were constant rumbling sounds on the mountain road.

Aunt Six paid no attention to the frantic ghost behind her.

After throwing away the ghost-eye sheepskin drum, she directly opened the small wooden box she was carrying and took out two glass bottles from it.

In the dim light, you can vaguely see a colorful centipede wriggling in each of the two glass bottles.

This is the poisonous insect that Aunt Six bought from Meng Laoqi, and she carefully fed it for a week.

Seeing the two bloody corpses slowly approaching, she, holding the glass bottle, felt her eyes dim and hesitated for a moment.

But out of the corner of his eye, he saw Ran Qing, who was wrapped in the paper man and floating to Li Hongye's side.

In the darkness, Aunt Liu took a deep breath and gritted her teeth.

She was angry, but she couldn't go on.

"...For the sake of the doll!"

Aunt Six gnashed her teeth and roared, "Ran Qing! Get ready!"

Aunt Liu's angry shouts echoed along the mountain path, but Li Hongye, who was hovering between two pine trees, ignored them and continued to scan the surroundings with a cold gaze.

She seemed to be aware of the presence of someone nearby.

Aunt Liu simply smashed the two glass bottles against each other.

Shards of the glass bottle flew everywhere, and two colorful centipedes crawled out and bit her wrist directly.

The severe pain made Aunt Liu's expression distorted.

The two centipedes were sucking Aunt Liu's blood madly.

As they sucked more and more blood, the color of the shells of the two centipedes became redder and redder.

When the blood-red color completely filled the two centipedes, Aunt Liu roared angrily, clasped her hands together, and forcibly pinched the two centipedes that were full of blood.

Then Aunt Liu raised her hand high.

The huge and crazy ghost behind her pounced on her excitedly and sucked away two centipedes in one gulp.

Blood-red mist rose from the ghostly figure.

It let out a sharp, piercing, painful yet comfortable howl.

The ghost hit the sheepskin drum with even greater force.

The two bloody corpses had already walked close to Aunt Liu.

But as the ghost shadow sucked the centipede's blood and slapped it harder, they were forcibly repelled.

This time, not only was he repelled, but even his bloody flesh kept falling off and he suffered severe damage.

Moreover, the rumbling and shaking waves of the earth spread outwards to a wider range.

Li Hongye, hovering in mid-air, was instantly overwhelmed by the rumbling vibration. Her pale skin instantly exploded, and there was no way back!
Seeing this scene, Ran Qing rushed over without any hesitation.

As the rumbling sound came, he unexpectedly regained his ability to move. Without hesitation, Ran Qing rushed towards Li Hongye in mid-air with the paper figures all over his body.

The moment he jumped up from the ground, he saw Li Hongye's head split open in mid-air.

From the fragments of the face, one could vaguely piece together a cold, indifferent face. Its dark eyes stared intently at him.

The paper figure on Ran Qing's body began to emit pale green flames.

The first paper man burned out quickly.

Then came the second, then the third...

When the fourth paper man burned out, Ran Qing finally rushed to Li Hongye.

His hand fiercely grabbed the largest piece of the exploded debris.

The icy chill instantly spread throughout Ran Qing's entire body!
His whole body shook, and he felt like he was flying, and soon he arrived at an extremely familiar teacher's office.

Warm lights fell on the ceiling.

In the quiet teachers' office, the desks are piled with teachers' books and homework from various classes.

There was a faint dust floating in the air, and occasionally the shadows of students passed by in the corridor outside the window.

This is Mr. Jin's office, where Ran Qing is occasionally called in for private tutoring. In Ran Qing's boring high school life, this office is the warmest light in his life.

Because the girl in the next class would occasionally be called by her teacher for private tutoring.

Ran Qing's weakness is English and his strength is mathematics.

The girl's weakness is math and her strength is English.

Two boys and girls of similar age, who were not in the same class, gradually became familiar with each other...

But Li Hongye's obsession and resentment is towards this office.

Ran Qing was stunned when he saw this scene. His mouth opened slightly and the expression on his face quickly became bitter and complicated.

He imagined the scene where Li Hongye was obsessed with resentment, maybe when her parents died, maybe when she was buried in a cold coffin, or maybe when her parents' skin was peeled off by her own hands... Ran Qing thought of many possibilities, but he never thought it would be here.

What he thought was warmth turned out to be the most resentful obsession in her heart!
So she actually doesn't like herself, and she only approaches me out of hatred?

And because she was forced to get close to her enemy's son, she had long been resentful, so that this office became the deepest obsession and resentment in her heart after her death.

The warmth that Ran Qing enjoyed so much was, to the girl, the most torturous torture in the world!
Because here she was, forced to smile to a hated enemy!
Ran Qing was struck by lightning when he realized this.

Intense sorrow and anger spread from his chest.

He stared at the pale ghost in front of him with blurred vision, unable to believe it.

Behind the pale ghost, a man was curled up in the corner, dazed.

Ran Jianfei, his biological father, the enemy of Li Hongye's family.

He came this time to save this man, but...

The expression on Ran Qing's face collapsed.

He struggled hard to be independent for many years, trying to get rid of all the influence of that man, and suffered a lot for it.

But in the end, the man sneered and told him that his life had been ruined from the very beginning...

In order to save this man, Aunt Liu even had to face danger and brought about the death prophecy of the knife seller on credit.

At this moment, Ran Qing suddenly had an idea - maybe it wouldn't be bad to die like this.

He could stay here to hold Li Hongye back and let Aunt Liu leave.

This man named Ran Jianfei is not worth saving.

His death at the hands of Li Hongye just fulfilled Li Hongye's hatred.

Soon, the last two paper figures were burned.

Ran Qing stood alone in the office, muttering, "Sixth Aunt, go ahead. I'll help you hold her back..."

His consciousness had flown deep into Li Hongye's soul, but his body remained outside. Aunt Liu could hear what he said at this moment.

If Aunt Liu wants to leave, she can leave at any time.

As long as Sixth Aunt left now, she would be safe.

The only one who will die is Ran Qing.

From the far distance, a faint and extremely angry roar came.

"…What nonsense are you talking about!"

But Ran Qing no longer intended to listen.

His life had completely collapsed at this moment, and he didn't want to drag Sixth Aunt down with him anymore. It would be best to send Sixth Aunt away before the knife seller's death prophecy came true.

In the office ahead, the pale ghost grinned and let out a cold and complacent laugh.

She looked at Ran Qing who had given up resistance and laughed out loud.

"Looks like you know it! Ran Qing!"

The pale ghost let out an excited and crazy roar that Ran Qing had never heard before.

"This is the moment I've been waiting for!"
