A Guest in a Ghost House

Chapter 175 The missing person

Witch Yan should have thought of this question too, and said anxiously: "They didn’t go to the entrance of village, did they?"

Although the entrance of village had became a new road for a long time. Everyone in the village knew exactly where the village entrance was. After listening to the word of Witch Yan, many people took a cool breath.

Grandpa Zhao stupefied a bit, it was quite unexpected if someone dared to go to the entrance of village, then he changed his face and shouted: “Mr.Wang, you a son of a bitch, where did they go?”

An old man came out from the crowd,and he was as old as Grandpa Zhao. He was Mr.Wang who was of the same generation with me. Mr.Wang was very helpless and could only cry and say: “Uncle, my naught son as you know,was absolutely not dare to go to the entrance of village.”

Witch Yan said: "Well, anyway, I'll go to the entrance of village and look around. You looked around elsewhere, the first thing is to find them out."

After listening to her word, villagers immediately looked for them separately. My mom also wanted to help. But was stopped by Aunt Li. Witch Yan was not here now. My mother's safety also depended on Aunt Li and phoenix. We’d better not to separate.

Villagers kept searching until the next morning. When they gathered on a vacant land in village, everyone’s face was not looked good. The reason was very simple. Villagers did not find them. Witch Yan also went to the village entrance, but did not see any person either, what’s more there was no evident showing that anyone had been there before.

Knowing they didn’t get to the entrance of village, villagers released a bit. Uncle Wang and his wife didn’t stop scolding their son. Anyone who had such a child would probably be very angry, even worse, they disappeared overnight.

Some people in the village called the police. However, the police said that it was less than 48 hours. There's no way out. Uncle Wang thanked villagers asked if they would continue to help him. The village was not large. Everyone kept in touch with each other, certainly, no one refused. Villagers agreed to continue the search separately after breakfast.

My mom couldn’t just standing by. How could she did nothing to help other villager? Moreover, it was now in the daytime, so it’s no need to worry about weird things happen again. Then my mom and Witch Yan were in a group, I was in a group of Aunt Li. After some villagers had breakfast, they started searching again.

As for Xue’er and phoenix, they stayed at home. The plan to return to the ghost house could only be shelved for the time being.

I was not very familiar with the road in the village. I was only able to follow some villagers and cried sometime. From time to time, I knew that the son of Uncle Wang was Wang Gang. He was the youngest son of Uncle Wang. It was his Junior year at that time. He was obedient and clever in most of time.

Voices of calling Wang Gang in the villages appeared one after another, it was clear that there was nothing discovered. I followed the villagers and got into the hills and trees but found nothing. The mountains were densely covered with weeds. There was no trace of anyone passing by, certainly, there was no need for us to step further anymore.

As we were discussing to change another direction to continue searching, there was a burst of chewing sound in distances, because of the squeaky sound of biting bones, villagers suddenly became alert, and Aunt Li was even more alert, she was next to me.

"Be careful, there’s something wrong."

"Is it a wolf?”

"Bullshit, we haven't seen a wolf for years."

"Let’s go and see."

The villagers were talking and walking in the direction of the sound. Those leading people even took out machetes. That’s quite normal, because many roads in rural areas would overgrown with plants if people don’t walk on them for a while. It would be very troublesome to walk without a machete. Moreover, the village was too remote, it’s safer to go out with a machete. Although it’s almost impossible to encounter a wolf, wild animals such as boar could appear usually.

To the villagers without weapons were distributed a pointed stick with the help of the villagers with the machetes, I was also distributed one.

As we are moving forward slowly, the chewing sounds were getting louder and louder, and even a heavy breathing sound can be heard. It's just that the weeds were too dense to figure out for the time being, but everyone knew that it was close.

Perhaps our actions also alerted the guy who was eating. The chewing sound stopped. The leading villagers did not stop. He immediately lifted his machete and cut a small tree to the ground. At the moment countless branches falling down, I saw a white shadow rushing into the other side of the jungle.

It disappeared as soon as branches fell down on the ground. I did not know if it was a sudden situation that made me dazzled. It seemed that the white shadow was a man who was bending over and naked. Unfortunately, his movement was too fast to see clearly.

“Alarms, quick alarms.” One villager shouted in panic. There was a commotion in the crowd, and a little youngster vomited. I then realized that on the ground in front of me, a man lying on his back, with a paling face and opening eyes. He’s dead in his early 20s. What’s worse was that the corpse’s stomach had been torn apart, and the internal organs remaining were less than a half, and there was even a section of intestines exposed outside.

I couldn't help but vomited twice. Aunt Li patted me on my back immediately and whispered in my ear, "It's not a wild beast."

I was a little startled, and then I thought of the white figure that I had just seen. I couldn't help but feel a bit chilling again. Was that a man who ate the internal organs?

Because of human life, the police arrived quickly. There were many acquaintances, Luo Wen and the coward policeman were among the police. It was quite strange that both of them were taking conversations from a long distance.

It seemed that Luo Wen was scared. When I saw the cowardly policeman, I paused for a long time. Finally, I asked Aunt Li and know that the fake policemen who was actually pretended by Xiao Chen were eliminated that night. OK, I understood. But I still had a little strange feeling in my heart.

I was wondering how the policemen escaped, as knowing that the police cars I saw at that time were all turned into paper cars.

It’s obviously Luo Wen also found us, his face started showing joy, nodded slightly to us but did not come. Instead, he took a few police and forensic doctors to the body, a few moments later some police came to us and record our words.

Luo Wen also came over, let the person who was recording for me and Aunt Li leave, then picked up a notebook pretending to start recording, then he said in a loath voice: "I really do not want to come as you are here."

I nodded in agreement and said, "Your colleagues were all right."

Luo Wen looked around and whispered, "Nothing. They said they went back with me. Then they went back home. It seemed that they were with a ghost which was pretending me. Fortunately, that ghost didn't hurt them."

I was stunned by Luo Wen's words. My had a very strange feeling, but nothing go wrong is always better than something go wrong. I didn't want to investigate any further. After all, I had already had too many troubles.
