23.The Truth Unfolds

  "You two are leaving at midnight tonight?"

  At the dinner table, Axiu looked surprised, but then she said:

  "Alright… well, please do a good job reporting. Anyway, if you don't report it… you know the consequences."

  Consequences… Li knew what they were.

  But he had no intention of reporting the news.

  No matter how vicious and cruel the vengeful spirits were, as long as they could escape back to the apartment, they would be completely safe.

  The apartment, though terrifying, was also the safest haven.

  Yuan had mentioned this many times, and he had completely confirmed that no matter how terrifying the ghosts were, they could never enter the apartment.

  After dinner, Li and Ye immediately packed their things and prepared to leave.

  "Leaving so soon?" Axiu was still tidying up the bowls and chopsticks on the table, and asked in confusion: "Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

  "We have something urgent, we have to leave tonight…"

  "But, climbing over Hei Wu Mountain is very time-consuming. And at this hour, there are no buses down the mountain, how are you going to get there?"

  "Our car is parked down the mountain, it should be fine."

  "Oh? Do as you please."

  Then, the two of them left as if they were running away.

  During this month, Li and Ye had been extremely friendly to Axiu.

  They helped her with housework several times and tried their best to make her less busy.

  If Bing really had such a good relationship with her, they hoped that this would make her spare them.

  Of course, if it was that easy to survive, then this fourth blood letter instruction would be too simple.

  Li himself didn't believe it was possible.

  Li and Ye walked to the edge of the village before stopping and sitting down.

  They both looked at the watches on their wrists.

  To prevent the time from being wrong, they both bought famous Swiss brand watches, although they were expensive, this money couldn't be saved.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

  If the time was wrong and they left the village ahead of time, resulting in their shadows controlling them to commit suicide, then they would be in tears.

  "Li…" Ye was already extremely nervous at this moment, her heart was beating rapidly.

  Finally… they were about to leave this village!

  "Listen carefully, Ye." Li said solemnly: "That mountain path is quite difficult to walk, this trip will probably be very difficult, even if everything goes smoothly, it will take three hours to reach the foot of the mountain. Taking the car to the city will take about two hours. And entering the city and then going to the apartment will also take about an hour."

  Six hours!

  Six hours would decide their lives or death!

  If they could enter the apartment after six hours, they would be able to survive!

  "Yuan told me…" Li continued: "Although the apartment is very cruel, there are often situations where death is inevitable. But there are still a few people who have the chance to survive. So… we absolutely cannot give up!"

  Ye nodded.

  For three years, she had also known this truth.

  Although six hours was a long time, ghosts wouldn't attack you all the time.

  Otherwise, how could Yuan and Ye have survived to this day?

  ……

  Time kept ticking by, and midnight was getting closer.

  In Axiu's house in You Shui Village.

  In the kitchen, the lid of the water tank had been opened.

  "The village headmanman's family is heartbroken now… haha, it's so funny," Axiu's face was extremely distorted at this moment, her eyes looked as vicious as a demon.

  She held the scissors in her hand and said:

  "Sister Bing… you killed well, you killed them all! Oh, right, there's also Wu and Su's mother, she must die too, because she also spoke ill of you. Yes, kill her tomorrow, and then I'll cut off her tongue, haha, isn't that great… ah, ah?"

  A hand suddenly stretched out from the water tank!

  Like a boneless creature, a twisted body slowly rose from the water tank.

  Loose hair, a pale face, arms swinging meaninglessly…

  She looked down at Axiu from above, her body reaching the ceiling.

  "Sister Bing…" Axiu shouted excitedly: "You finally, finally came to see me!"

  ……

  And at this moment, at the edge of the village, Li looked at his watch again… less than five minutes left before they could leave the village!

  "We're about to leave…" Li was still on high alert, vigilantly observing his surroundings.

  Suddenly, he noticed a figure approaching.

  "Who…" Li was shocked and shouted: "Who are you!"

  He shone his flashlight at the figure, but it was a young woman, about twenty-four or five years old.

  She was dressed like a city dweller, carrying a briefcase in her hand.

  "You?" Li looked at the woman, she seemed to be a "person".

  "Who are you?" The woman said in surprise: "Did the village headmanman send someone to pick me up? No, I didn't tell him I was coming today."

  "I…" Li was confused and immediately asked: "Do you know the village headmanman?"

  "Yeah, your clothes… don't look like the villagers. Who are you?"

  "We… we came to see the sights, experience the countryside…"

  "Oh?" The woman smiled and said: "That's quite interesting! But why are you staying here in the middle of the night?"

  "This…"

  "Alright, forget it, whatever. I'm going to take a look around the village, I haven't been back in years…"

  "Uh, miss, did you used to live in the village?" Li asked.

  "Ah…" She still smiled amiably and said: "Yes, I left the village several years ago. Two months ago, I wrote a letter to the village headman, saying that I would come back this time to invest and help the village get rid of poverty."

  "What? You are…"

  "Oh, right. I forgot to introduce myself, my name is - Li Bing."

  ……

  In Axiu's house, the tall, white-clothed woman slowly stretched out her hand towards Axiu… her eyes without pupils revealed a chilling and terrifying aura!
