Chapter 12 Kill Them
Not long after, the blood on the black book stopped. It was as if it was scared to death, and the blood receded immediately. However, the blood was not completely digested by the black book, but flowed directly to the ground along the pages. This blood condensed into a sentence on the ground. “You crazy lunatic who doesn’t fear death!” Liu Haoyu just shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, “No father, no mother, no worries, just a cheap life.” However, he still added some protection to himself. As for the rest, he would leave it to fate. Closing the book, Liu Haoyu followed the book’s instructions and walked towards the reservoir. If Liu Haoyu guessed correctly, the white-clothed female ghost from before must have been killed near the reservoir, or was killed and thrown into the reservoir. In either case, finding the corpse would not be an easy task. But Liu Haoyu did not give up, he came to the shore next to the reservoir. The bright moonlight was reflected on the water, and the surrounding humid air carried a hint of coolness. However, on this late night, it did feel a little eerie. It was as if something would suddenly emerge from the bottom of the water and drag anyone who approached into the water. Liu Haoyu walked along the shore, looking at the candle in his hand, which was not lit. The white-clothed fierce ghost had not chased after him. This was good for others, but not good for Liu Haoyu, who wanted to catch ghosts. If the other party hid, it would be even more difficult to catch it. “Where did the tragedy mentioned in the book just now happen…” Liu Haoyu tried to find clues from the shore. But the problem was, if the female ghost’s corpse was sunk to the bottom of the water, it would be like finding a needle in a haystack, impossible to start with. Even so, Liu Haoyu still patrolled the shore for a while. After walking a considerable distance, he saw a cave entrance. Liu Haoyu heard from an old man that decades ago, this was not a reservoir, but a factory. Later, because the dam was to be built, the factory was moved elsewhere. The now vacant cave entrance was likely a warehouse or an air-raid shelter. Liu Haoyu walked to the entrance of the cave. The cave entrance was overgrown with weeds and was hidden, so it was really difficult for ordinary people to find this place. He looked at the lock above, and for some reason, the style of the lock looked a bit new, and there wasn’t much rust on it. Normally, a warehouse that had been abandoned for so many years, without anyone to repair or manage it, the lock on the door should have been rusted and unusable long ago. But now, there were only some rust spots, and it seemed like it could still be opened. Liu Haoyu used a crowbar to pry open the lock, then placed his hand on the door and gently pushed it open a crack. Just a crack. A rotten smell assaulted his nostrils, accompanied by an extremely chilling grudgew. Without a doubt, this should be the place where the fierce ghost’s corpse was located. Liu Haoyu held his breath, and the ghost in his pocket also held its breath. Entering such a place required a bit of courage. But fortunately, Liu Haoyu was a very brave person. But Qin Liu was not. If not for the lack of a physical body, Qin Liu would have wished to grab Liu Haoyu’s leg and have him send her home before exploring this damned place. After all, this place looked like it hadn’t been opened for decades, who knew what was inside?! At this moment, Qin Liu could already imagine that when Liu Haoyu pushed open the door, he would see a pale ghostly face smiling at him. So when Liu Haoyu cut the lock with hydraulic pliers, Qin Liu quickly closed her eyes and stayed motionless within the Hong Yu. Fortunately, when Liu Haoyu pushed open the door, there were no terrifying ghostly faces or appalling dead hands inside. It was just an empty, large warehouse. The walls of the warehouse were covered with moss, but even so, it could not cover up the unbearable stench of decay. Coupled with this lingering chilling grudgew, anyone could guess that someone had died in this warehouse. It’s just that it was so long ago that no trace was left here. Liu Haoyu walked to the center of the warehouse, he looked around, trying to find a place where the corpse might be hidden. However, no matter how he looked, he could not find any corpse. If there was no corpse, then what was this rotten smell? The dimly lit room was empty but contained no items. Coupled with this extremely foul smell, it was like entering an underground tomb, making people shiver. Liu Haoyu wanted to keep looking, when suddenly. “Squeak~creak~thump!” After a tooth-grinding friction sound, there was a heavy impact. The moonlight that should have shone into the warehouse also disappeared completely. The door that entered the warehouse was closed by something unknown. In this darkness where one could not see their hand, the candle in Liu Haoyu’s hand emitted a faint flame. Something dirty had come. Seeing this, Liu Haoyu took out the Zhenlei Talisman and Hong Yu, ready to subdue any fierce ghost that appeared. However, after an unknown period of time, no ghosts appeared. Instead, sounds of women screaming echoed in the warehouse. “Help! Help! Ahhh! Help…” The sound was mournful and loud, and the woman’s screams became weaker and weaker, even becoming sharp and eerie. And there were also a few men’s strange laughter. Even in the pitch-black darkness of the room, Liu Haoyu could see several faceless men holding down a woman, about to commit indecent acts with her. But before they could succeed, they found that the woman pressed to the ground was no longer struggling, but had already lost her life. She was dead. She was suffocated to death by being held down on the ground. Seeing this, those men’s faces turned pale with fright. They only intended to do something unspeakable, but they did not expect to cause a human life. In their panic, one of them immediately thought of a good idea. Then, from Liu Haoyu’s perspective, these men found several cleavers and saws from somewhere, and dismembered the corpse bit by bit, from head to toe. The blood gathered into a pool and flowed to Liu Haoyu’s feet. A round head fell to the ground, its eyes staring intently at Li Haoyu, unwilling to close. After these men had dismembered all the pieces, they threw them all into the reservoir in one go. Then, the warehouse became dark again. A faint voice sounded. “I hate… I hate it so much… Why… why…” The voice was low and venomous, sometimes near and sometimes far, sometimes loud and sometimes small, as if it was right beside Liu Haoyu’s ear. “Kill them…” “Kill them…” “Kill them…”
