Chapter 88 Ghosts!

Jinan Muyun Mansion.

A few nights ago, the backyard was haunted, with terrified screams echoing from within!

Sun Jinzhong, the commander of the Jiaodong garrison stationed in the front yard, sent three soldiers into the backyard

to investigate , but all three never returned! Later, no matter how Sun Jinzhong threatened or bribed them, no one dared

to enter the backyard that night.

That morning, after much effort, Sun Jinzhong offered a large sum of money and finally managed to lure a group of laborers into the backyard.

Fortunately , these laborers emerged unharmed, but they were all terrified, their faces pale. The scene inside was truly

horrifying! In the end, the laborers carried out thirty-one corpses; not a single person was alive!

Since occupying the Luosha Gate compound a few days ago, the

29 , plus the three soldiers sent in to investigate, totaling 32 men, found only 31 corpses, all of them

dying in extremely bizarre and inexplicable ways! Even more bizarrely, one soldier disappeared without a trace!

The faces of these soldiers still bore the marks of utter terror, clearly indicating they had witnessed

something extremely horrific before their deaths! Due to the strangeness of the matter, Commander Sun had no choice but to send word to the Jinan Prefecture government, requesting that

experts from the Six Doors be dispatched to investigate the case. At the prefect's request, the renowned Jinan Prefecture Chief Inspector Zhao Bingnan, who had solved countless mysteries,

rushed over with four constables and two coroners!

The two coroners, Zhao Qing and Qian Hui, carefully examined each soldier's corpse and discovered something

even stranger!

It turned out that there were absolutely no wounds on any of the 31 corpses! Therefore, the cause of death could not be determined at all.

Nearly sixty years old and with a full head of white hair, Zhao Bingnan had never encountered such a bizarre

murder , especially with so many victims! Left with no other choice, he led four constables into the backyard to investigate the crime

scene.

However, after the five men went in that morning, they too vanished without a trace, never to emerge again! Even more frighteningly,

not a single scream came from inside!

Had these dozens of brothers, plus Constable Zhao and his four men, been devoured by vengeful ghosts? Otherwise,

how could they have disappeared so silently? Alas, it seems this family has truly been wronged. So

many people died here a few days ago; it's no wonder those unjustly killed spirits are seeking revenge! Good heavens, this is terrifying!

This horrifying rumor began to circulate among the guards in the front yard and gradually reached

the ears of the people on the streets…

The remaining sixty-odd soldiers of the guard were all filled with dread, some even secretly slipping out of Muyun Mansion to

desert!

By noon today, only thirty or forty guards in leather armor, carrying long guns, remained inside

. They were gathered in twos and threes near the back gate,

pointing , but dared not approach, whispering amongst themselves.

An officer in a battalion commander's uniform hurried over and sternly reprimanded the soldiers, "I told

you to go in and see! Why are you still dawdling here? Go now!"

The soldiers' eyes widened in terror. A sergeant stammered, "Chief Sun, you

know the backyard is haunted. That night, dozens of brothers, plus the five men led by Constable Zhao the next morning,

all had their souls sucked away by vengeful spirits. You…you're sending us in to our deaths!"

Sun Jinzhong snapped, "Even if there really are ghosts, during the day…" "You should be hiding now, what are you all so afraid of?"

The soldier said in a panic, "Zhao...the five constables went in during the day too, and

they're the same as everyone else!"

Sun Jinzhong sighed, "It's not that I'm deliberately making things difficult for you, but thirty-one of

my men , and one is missing. Commander Gao is forcing me to find out the cause of death! How can I get away

with this without going in and investigating? Li Qing, you take Zhang Zhong, Zhang Shixi, and Li Shan in first, I'll bring the rest of the men later!"

The four men who were called out immediately looked terrified!

Squad leader Li Qing said in a trembling voice, "Hey boss, why is it us again? Shouldn't it be his turn...they

go ahead..." He pointed to several people beside him as he spoke.

Sun Jinzhong said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense! If you guys don't go over there, I won't wait for the ghost to catch you, I'll chop

you all down first!" He drew his sword as if to strike, but when he said the word "ghost," his voice trembled.

Helpless, Li Qing and the other three had no choice but to slowly make their way northeast.

The distance from the back gate to Muyu Tower was only about seventy zhang (approximately 33 meters), a distance that should only take half an hour even at a leisurely pace. However

, it took them more than two quarters of an hour to finally reach the arched gate of Muyu Tower.

Meanwhile, Captain Sun Jinzhong, furious, shouted angrily from behind, leading about thirty men

who followed even slower than the four in front. Most of them kept looking back, appearing ready to flee at any moment if things went wrong

!

Li Qing, the leader, walked through the arched doorway and hid behind the artificial hill in the courtyard, peering inside for a while. He then said to

Zhang Zhong , "It's really strange! In broad daylight, all the curtains in every room of this building, upstairs and downstairs, are

tightly drawn..."

Zhang Zhong said, "Ghosts are afraid of light, so of course they have to draw the curtains! Otherwise, how can the ghosts stay? If we just

open those curtains, the fierce ghosts probably won't dare to come out..."

Li Qing said, "The problem is, yeah... who will go in and draw the curtains?" His gaze

swept over the faces of the other three.

Zhang Zhong and the other two trembled with fear, shaking their heads like rattles. "No, no, no! I

can't !"

Li Qing, hearing the distant shouts and curses of Commander Sun, who threatened to behead them, could only grit his teeth.

"Let's go in together! Don't be afraid, be afraid, be afraid... That morning, laborers came in to carry

the corpse , but... nothing happened, right?"

He tried to reassure himself and his companions, but he was extremely nervous, and his speech became stammering.

The four huddled together, trembling, as they walked around the artificial hill and fishpond, through a narrow passage, and into the main hall.

The hall was empty; apart from some junk, everything of value had been taken away. Because all the curtains were drawn

tightly , the hall was dark and silent. The deep blue curtains shrouded the room in a ghostly blue, making it seem

eerie and terrifying, a stark contrast to the peaceful afternoon light!

Zhang Zhong suddenly exclaimed, "Look! What's that dark shadow hanging from the beam?"

Li Qing and the other two were startled! They

quickly looked up and focused their attention. In the dim light, they saw a skeleton hanging from the beam, seemingly still slowly

swaying! This skeleton wasn't the kind that had naturally decomposed; instead, it was a shocking

red and white color, still dripping blood, as if someone had recently cut off its flesh while it was still alive, leaving only a

skeleton !

There were still some pieces of bright red flesh that hadn't been completely removed from the bones, and the joints were connected by white tendons, making it look terrifying

and eerie!

Everyone's eyes turned to the ground, where they saw a pile of fragmented human skin and

scattered internal organs, as well as a pool of blood! It emitted a strong, pungent smell of blood!

A chill ran down the spines of the four men!

Li Qing said in a trembling voice, "This must be... that missing brother! But when the laborers came in

to move the body that morning, they didn't see this corpse. Since the incident with Constable Zhao and the others, no one has come in.

So who hung it up here? Also, only the skin, internal organs, and skeleton are left. Where did his flesh go

?"

A ghost! The thought popped into everyone's mind simultaneously.

"Ah!" Zhang Zhong suddenly screamed loudly again.

The other three were startled! They hurriedly asked, "What's wrong now? Why are you screaming like that? Are you trying to scare us to death?"

Zhang Zhong pointed to the ground in disbelief, "Among these internal organs, the only one... the only one missing is the heart!"

Li Qing and the other two looked carefully, and sure enough! The liver, spleen, stomach, etc., were all there, but the heart was nowhere to be found! A terrifying thought popped into everyone's

mind : aren't vengeful ghosts most fond of eating human hearts?

Li Qing's nerves were stretched to the limit. "Ugh~ Let's hurry up and draw back the curtains, it's so dark and creepy

!"

The lobby window was located on the opposite left corner, to the left of the stairwell.

The four of them huddled together and walked over, preparing to draw back the thick curtains.

Suddenly! "Ugh~ I killed so many people that night, and when I woke up, there was only one left for me, I

didn't even get enough to eat..."

A faint sigh, as if from the depths of hell, rang out. The voice was sharp, ethereal, and indistinct,

its origin unknown, yet it was unmistakably clear!

"Hehehe~ Four more, great! We can have a feast! Waaaaah~" The maniacal laughter was as grating and unpleasant as

balloons rubbing against each other!

The four of them looked at each other, their faces pale with fright, their bodies trembling like leaves, their legs weak!

"Waaaaah~ Waaaaah~ Give me back my life... Waaaaah~ Waaaah~ You evil people, give me back my life!

...I died so tragically! My face was twisted behind my neck, my legs were broken~ My heart went nowhere...

I can't be reincarnated~ Reincarnated~ Reincarnated..." Another eerie chant came, the voice becoming shrill

and hoarse, sending chills down their spines!

A ghost! The four were stunned, the thought surging in their minds simultaneously!

Before they could even think of running away, a white-clad, disheveled, sunken-eyed ghost suddenly appeared at the dim

corner of the stairs above! Its paper-like face and deep-set eyes, its disheveled ghostly face, were extremely eerie,

sending shivers down their spines! Just

as the four were about to retreat in fright, the ghost's pale and twisted figure vanished in a flash!

Li Qing and the others looked at each other, their minds blank, when the extremely shrill chant suddenly

rang out behind them again!

The four turned around in shock. A sinister, grotesque, concave face was almost pressed against their own. The pale face had deep,

sunken eye sockets, and the face glared menacingly at them through disheveled hair. Blood still

dripped from its gaping maw, and sharp fangs, at least an inch long, gleamed coldly! They were so close, they could see it clearly!

What was even more terrifying was that the face was facing away! The right leg, clearly broken and bent forward, dangled in the air;

the chest cavity was gaping, a bloody mess… The face was like that of a ghostly demon, the heavy, iron-like cheeks contrasting horribly against the twisted body,

utterly horrifying, terrifying, and chilling!

The ugly female ghost then drifted through the lobby and stairwell, her clothes fluttering, sometimes appearing beside piles of clutter;

sometimes clinging to the walls; sometimes floating to the ceiling. The female ghost had clearly been extremely restless in life,

never staying still for more than a blink of an eye in any one place.

Soon, Li Qing and the others were dazzled, their necks twisting and turning wildly until they ached, and their heads throbbed with

dizziness !

At this moment, the female ghost seemed to have regained her patience, hovering above the pile of entrails, reaching out her ghostly claws to poke at it, but

finding 　　　nothing to eat.

It seemed that without human hearts, the food was hard to swallow! The four men were terrified!
