Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
She wanted to strangle the old man to death!
Yun Qin was shocked and immediately shouted, “What are you doing?”
The female ghost’s movements immediately stopped. Her long hair covered her face. Before Yun Qin could react, she quickly got up and ran in a direction.
“Greedy Ghost!”
Yun Qin called out and a small figure immediately followed, disappearing into the darkness together.
When Yun Qin looked at the old man lying on the ground, she found that the old man went into shock. She quickly gave the old man first aid. Finally, the old man slowly woke up, looked at Yun Qin, and cried out in shock, “Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah!”
“You...” Yun Qin was about to ask him to describe the female ghost’s appearance, but the old man quickly got up and ran back home as if he was running for his life. He slammed the door shut.
Yun Qin looked at the closed door and felt very helpless.
How could this happen...
After a while, Yun Qin decided to first catch the person who was pretending to be a ghost.
Following the scent that the greedy ghost left, Yun Qin walked up to the well in the village. At this moment, there was a very strong evil aura in the well, but there was no ghost.
The greedy ghost was squatting by the well, looking at her helplessly.
The well was surrounded by ropes and a sign which said “Maintenance. Do not approach.”
Yun Qin jumped over the rope, came to the well, and looked down.
It was probably because this well supplied water to the entire village, the well was extremely wide, its diameter was about the height of a person.
Yun Qin stuck her head out and looked down, but she could only see the reflection of the moon on the surface of the water.
“She went in here?” Yun Qin asked.
However, the greedy ghost shook its head with a dejected look on its face.
“You didn’t catch up to her?”
After receiving a positive reply, Yun Qin looked at the well and became more and more puzzled.
What kind of person could run faster than the greedy ghost, carry so much evil energy on her, and still want to pretend to be a ghost to kill people?
Yun Qin gathered a stream of evil energy and threw it into the well.
Sure enough, the well absorbed her evil energy and became a part of the thick evil energy that Yun Qin could feel.
Could it be that the person transferred her evil energy into the well and then escaped?
Yun Qin looked at the few houses near the well and rubbed her chin.
However, she was sure that since the well could store evil energy naturally, that meant that there were evil spirits at one point that stayed in the well for a long time.
Perhaps it had something to do with the female corpse that appeared in the well a few days ago.
But where did the evil spirits in the well go?
Just as Yun Qin was looking at the surface of the water, she suddenly sensed a few people approaching.
The surface of the ground near the well was empty. There was no place for her to hide. It was also unfortunate that Yun Qin only discovered them just as they stepped into her detection range.
“Stay there and don’t move!”
The person who came suddenly shouted. Yun Qin frowned and could only stay where she was. At the same time, hid the greedy ghost back into the Soul Bead.
She was surrounded now, so she couldn’t jump into the well.
Three men approached her, and their leader was an old man with gray hair.
The person who shouted to stop Yun Qin was this old man.
Yun Qin was a little surprised. The three men had black ghost marks around their wrists, but there was nothing on this old man’s wrist. There was no evil energy at all.
There must be something wrong.
“Who are you? Come with us!”
One of the men said as he approached. Then, he grabbed something in his hand and went forward, wanting to get close to Yun Qin.
Yun Qin immediately said coldly, “Who are you? You want to kill me and silence me?”
She could feel the strong malice emitting from these four people. She was not sure if she should attack them or not.
However, once she made a move, things would be troublesome.
“Haha, this is the first time I’ve seen a thief calling out to catch a thief. Xiao Zhu, Xiao Qiang, arrest her.”
The old man in the lead sneered and ordered.
“You dare to arrest me? You trying to break the law?”
Yun Qin was shocked. In this era, there was still someone who dared to make an arrest so openly?
After hearing Yun Qin’s words, the old man in the lead sneered again and said, “You know who broke the law. You murdered people in Zhao family village. How dare you?”
She murdered people? Yun Qin instantly understood the situation. She was going to be the scapegoat.
It seemed that this white-haired old man in front of her was Coffin Village’s “powerful” village chief.
“Fine, I’ll go with you. It’s not that easy to frame me.”
Yun Qin was not angry but laughed instead. She wanted to see what these guys were up to.
Three strong men surrounded her, preventing her from escaping. The village chief took the lead and walked in front, looking back at her from time to time.
When they arrived at the meeting hall in the middle of the village, there were already two people inside.. Yun Qin saw that it was the old man who almost died just now and a woman in her thirties.
