Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

Chapter 137: Burial Mound, Human and Ghost Face Boils (2)

Lu Chengfu and Qi Hao stood obediently, looking even more well-behaved than primary school students. They recounted their trip to the burial mound honestly from beginning to end.

Chi Shuyan didn’t have much of an opinion about Wang Xuewen and Si Yinghua courting death to pick up girls, but Lu Chengfu then mentioned that from the moment he entered the tomb, the talisman he was holding got hotter and hotter. It burned when he first entered the tomb, and then scalded his hand even more when he saw the image of a possessed Wang Xuewen.

Not long after that, Wang Xuewen’s personality changed drastically when he found an antique blade, and he became just like those monsters they saw later. Not only did he smile sinisterly at them, he also dragged the blade behind him as he chased after them. Sun Jiezhen and Jiang Meng were caught off-guard and were chopped into pieces.

Hearing this, there was a slight pause in Chi Shuyan’s expression, and she suddenly said to Lu Chengfu and Qi Hao, “You two come here and take a closer look at the two faces on Wang Xuewen’s back.”

Before Chi Shuyan could finish speaking, the two boys shook their heads in fright. Chi Shuyan could only say, “Look at the two faces on his back first and see if you can identify them. I need to confirm something before I can save him!”

Only then did Lu Chengfu and Qi Hao grit their teeth and walk over to Wang Xuewen. When they opened their eyes and saw the strange twisted faces on his back, they almost pissed their pants and retched again.

Chi Shuyan didn’t rush them, and said unhurriedly, “Don’t be nervous! You need to be efficient, however, or we might miss the chance. After that, these two faces will grow larger and larger until they cover Wang Xuewen’s back and suck him dry of his vitality; saving him then will be difficult!”

It wasn’t just Qi Hao and Lu Chengfu who were stupefied by Chi Shuyan’s words; even Zhu Bocheng and Qi Zhenbai gasped.

Forget the two ghost faces covering the whole of his back; even when they couldn’t be considered very big right now, they could still scare people to death. Zhu Bocheng and the others simply didn’t dare to imagine how terrifying it would be if this damn thing covered all of Wang Xuewen’s back.

If they really let this damn thing grow all over Wang Xuewen’s back, they might as well kill themselves first.

Qi Hao and Lu Chengfu’s fingers and legs never stopped trembling. They resisted the urge to retch in fear that this damn thing would suddenly grow on their backs. As if understanding their fear, Chi Shuyan pressed down on their shoulders and said, “These ghosts have nothing to do with you! Look at the faces first!”

Only then did the two boys sigh with relief. Swallowing down the urge to gag, they stared fearfully for a while, before Qi Hao said with some hesitation in his eyes, “Sister-in-law, these two faces look like the two women whom Wang Xuewen killed when he was possessed. They’re Sun Jiezhen and Jiang Meng!”

At Qi Hao’s words, Lu Chengfu also had more confidence. “Yeah, I felt they were a little familiar but I wasn’t sure where I’d seen them before. Now that Haozi has mentioned it, I remember: These two faces are very similar to Sun Jiezhen and Jiang Meng – no, it?is?them!”

Lu Chengfu asked curiously, “Sister-in-law, aren’t these two women dead? Why are their faces growing on Xuewen?”

Qi Zhenbai and Zhu Bocheng also looked at Chi Shuyan curiously, hoping for a reply.

Qi Zhenbai was more patient than Zhu Bocheng. Afraid that Zhu Bocheng would disturb his woman, he motioned for him to speak less.

Zhu Bocheng could only shut up obediently and swallow his bellyful of questions.

After listening to the two brats, Chi Shuyan stared at Wang Xuewen’s back with some confidence and wasn’t in a hurry to reply to Lu Chengfu.

When she first saw the two human faces on Wang Xuewen’s back, she had thought that they were ghost face boils at first, but these two human faces obviously weren’t anything as simple as ghost face boils. The two distorted human faces carried resentment and yin energy. They were very insidious and were very much like human face boils.

Although it was only a one-word difference between human face and ghost face boils, the two were drastically different. The former was mostly retribution for evil people who had done evil deeds, while ghost face boils were simply a type of Gu[1].

She hadn’t been able to figure out if it was ghost face boils on Wang Xuewen’s back, but they weren’t likely to be human face boils either. She had taken several looks at Wang Xuewen’s countenance. Apart from this life or death calamity, he had pretty good fortune on the whole. His features were clean and his eyes clear, so naturally, he couldn’t be someone who did heinous deeds.

But these two faces had suddenly grown on his back. Thinking of what Lu Chengfu had said before, Chi Shuyan could only say that Wang Xuewen, this rascal, was unlucky. His luck was too bad. It was likely that the grievances of these two people had been too great before they died, and all their grievances were blamed on Wang Xuewen, this rascal, which resulted in the human face boils growing on his back.

As Chi Shuyan pondered, Wang Xuewen woke up at some point.

Qi Hao, Lu Chengfu, and Zhu Bocheng hurriedly said, “Are you awake? Xuewen, are you awake?”
