Chapter 979 Someone save me!
?
However no matter how much Father Xi screamed no one stepped out of the house. It was as if they couldn't hear a single word that came out of his mouth.
This time Father Xi really panicked, all the courage that he had accumulated from the morning till the evening vanished within seconds. He turned to look at the strange Xi Sang who was chasing after him with a butcher knife in his hands and felt like he was going to faint then and there.
" Xi Sang! I am your father! Your biological father!" Father Xi screamed at the top of his lungs hoping that his son would wake up from whatever daze he was in but no matter how loud he screamed, Xi Sang did not seem to hear anything.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtInstead, he only started to grin eerily when he heard Father Xi's screams which were full of panic and fear. When Father Xi noticed that his son was not listening to him, he immediately dropped the idea of 'waking him' up. Instead, he increased his pace and then ran to his cottage house where he kept hay stored for his animals.
The sound of his footsteps echoed in the silent surroundings causing Father Xi's heartbeat to accelerate, every time he took a step, he would turn around to look at his son who was chasing after him. If he hadn't seen the weird hungry glow in the eyes of his son, Father Xi would have thought that he was playing a prank on him.
After all, which son would kill his father? But given how Xi Sang was chuckling and licking his lips as if he was waiting to chop him up and eat his flesh, Father Xi knew that he was not playing around.
Father Xi rushed inside the cottage and then closed the door behind him, no sooner did he close the large door of the cottage he heard a swoosh followed by something hard hitting the wooden planks of the door.
Of course, he knew that it was the sound of that butcher knife hitting the surface of the door. Just the very thought that if he hadn't rushed inside the cottage in time, his son would have swung that butcher knife on his back was enough to scare the living wits out of him. Father Xi was especially horrified thinking that it was his son who wanted to kill him. His vision turned black and he almost fainted but then he shook his head and muttered, " It must be that evil ghost, My son will never do something like this…he will never kill me!"
Father Xi trembled head to foot with fear, he might have acted tough in the afternoon in front of his wife but in the end, no one in the world wasn't afraid of death and that too was such a painful death.
He hugged himself and then chanted, " Please…please someone save me!"
As he spoke, his gaze fell on something white glinting under the haystack. Under the moonlight, it was looking strikingly odd as it glowed brilliantly causing Father Xi to frown. He looked at the door which had gone silent as Xi Sang stopped swinging the butcher knife on the cottage door.
At first Father Xi did not want to move but then he scrambled on his feet, with his curiosity getting the best of him and walked towards the hay stack. His hands reached for the dried hay which was covering the silvery thing underneath it and then pulled the dried hay away from the glowing thing underneath the haystack.
His eyes fell on the thing that tumbled out of the haystack and Father Xi's eyes widened, almost popping out of their sockets as he looked at the skulls and human bones which have been piled up to the top of the hay stack.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe shock was too much for him causing Father Xi to stumble and then fall to the ground as he looked at the huge number of human bones which were hidden under the hay stack. This …how did this happen? Just how many humans did that evil ghost harm!?
Father Xi looked at the bones that were piled in the middle of his cottage and started trembling even more violently. Father Xi was in his fifties but upon seeing the amount of human bones piled up in the cottage owned by his family, he couldn't help but cry like a child. The more he cried the more miserable his cries became. Even his fear sky rocketed.
Why did he listen to that Shen woman? Why didn't he listen to that woman who told him again and again that it was better to exorcise that ghost?
The more Father Xi thought about how he had missed the right time to correct everything, the more he regretted it. He wished he could rush ahead and slap that Shen woman to death for swindling him and his wife like this, just look what did she do to her family!
She was the one who said that this ghost was a good one and was harmless, was this a harmless ghost?
" Dad, what are you doing inside the cottage?" A creepy voice snapped him out of his thoughts and he jumped up startled. Father Xi turned his head and looked at the cottage's door and his entire expression twisted, with his feet kicking on the floor he scrambled to the back of the cottage and then placed his hands on his mouth.
" Dad? Open the door. You can't leave your son hungry like this, can't you see my lord is hungry and wants to eat?" There was a delicate knock on the door of the cottage followed by Lady Yan's sweet voice but for Father Xi, that voice was a hundred —— no thousand times scarier and sinister than anything else in the world. " Dad! Open the door! My lord is hungry!"
Father Xi shivered as his face turned deathly pale, he pushed himself against the wall of the cottage when suddenly his eyes fell on something that was lying on the floor and his eyes rolled back into his sockets.
