Chapter 168: Come down and accompany us, accompany us!
Xu Bing stood at the door, looking at everything inside that should have belonged to her.
Delicious snacks, cute dolls, warm quilts.
Look at where she lived: under a dilapidated overpass, windy on all sides, the quilt was dirty, her whole body was covered in lice, and her skin was full of scars.
Pale and thin.
And the girl lying in the quilt? She even had a sweet smile in her sleep, wearing cute pajamas.
Xu Bing's eyes were full of anger, and the Ghostly aura belonging to her began to permeate, spreading in all directions.
Xiao Lili downstairs looked up and got up with a smile.
Her purpose in coming here was to protect Xu Bing; when Xu Bing transformed into the Demon's envoy, she would release Ghostly aura, attracting many things.
These things were the source of energy and fear after transformation, and also a kind of danger.
"Kill her!" Xiao Lili said softly.
The doll in her hand clapped excitedly: "Kill her, kill her!"
Xu Bing turned her head coldly and ignored them, walking toward the second room, seeing the boy inside.
This should have belonged to Brother, but now it became his; and finally, she came to Dad's room.
Dad was sleeping very soundly, hugging a woman prettier than Mom; they were the real family, while we were more like abandoned dogs.
The nightmare of fear began to be released from her body.
Eyeballs flowed from her wounds, covering the entire floor, wrapping the entire room.
Whoosh—
The nightmare had come.
Xu Tianyang's whole body twitched; he felt his limbs were cold, especially his right hand, as if something was grabbing him.
He opened his eyes sharply, the darkness was boundless, he felt beside him, and his wife wasn't sleeping beside him.
He got up and turned on the room light, but the light seemed to be short-circuited, flickering continuously.
Thump thump thump—
Suddenly.
A knocking sound came from downstairs; this knocking sound was as dull as hitting an iron box.
He got up on tiptoe and shouted outside: "Wife, where did you go?"
There was no one in the bathroom; he got up and came to the children's room, and it was empty.
His daughter was gone, and his son was gone.
He panicked a bit and hurriedly headed toward the living room downstairs. Could something have happened to them? Arriving at the living room, there was dirty mud on the floor, stretched very long on the floor, and the tip of his nose was full of the stench of dead water and mud.
Whoosh—
Suddenly.
He seemed to feel movement in the garden; it seemed someone was there.
He was just about to go over and see the situation.
Thump thump thump—
The door was knocked again.
Who is knocking on the door in the middle of the night? Could it be his wife and children? Did they go out? He didn't have time to think, Xu Tianyang ran to the door, didn't even observe who was at the door from the peephole, and opened the door directly.
There was no one outside the door; it was quiet, and there wasn't even the sound of rain falling.
Only a box was lying at the door.
Xu Tianyang glanced at the box; this... isn't this the box that held Xu Mang?
How could it be here?
Cold sweat streamed down.
Thump thump thump—
Suddenly, another knocking sound came; this time he heard it very clearly; this knocking sound came from inside the box.
There is something inside! He widened his pupils, retreated sharply, his expression full of horror.
Thump thump thump—
A sound came from the box again.
He stumbled, fell to the ground, and kept crawling backward while sitting on the ground.
He was scared.
Immediately after, Xu Mang's voice actually came from the box.
"Dad, Dad, I've come to find you."
"Dad, little sister is sick, can you help her? Can you take her home? She is in so much pain."
"Dad, it's so dark here, so dark, I'm so scared."
"Dad, you promised Mom to take care of us, you broke your promise; liars must go to hell!"
Xu Mang's voice kept coming; this box was like a copper passage connecting to hell; the voice he heard came from hell. Xu Tianyang was scared out of his wits, struggling frantically, crawling backward frantically.
Crack—
The box was opened, and a hand reached out from inside.
The hand was very thin, with many wounds and a lot of mud.
Most importantly, the fingernails were all flipped; these fingernails seemed to have been scratching the lid in the box, and the excessive force caused the fingernails to be flipped.
One hand reached out, and another hand reached out again.
The box kept approaching Xu Tianyang, closer and closer.
Xu Tianyang seemed to remember all his sins; he was terrified, he began to fear, began to tremble.
His body continued to crawl backward.
Boom—
Thunder and lightning outside, torrential rain.
Rainwater dripped from upstairs, gushing out from the basement.
He felt he was about to stop breathing.
Thump—
He, who was moving backward with both hands on the ground, suddenly bumped into something.
This thing was a person, a pair of legs.
It must be his wife.
He was overjoyed.
In a situation of despair and terror, the person one likes to see most must be one's family, because only family can give one a sense of security.
With family there, perhaps he wouldn't be so scared.
He turned his head hurriedly, seeing these shoes; these shoes were a pair of flat white petals, with a small white pearl beside them.
These... these shoes look so familiar.
Aren't these the shoes I... I gave to Yang Li?
When Yang Li and I were together in college, the first pair of shoes I gave her. She liked them very much.
These are Yang Li's shoes.
How could you be wearing them? Xu Tianyang slowly looked up, these legs, this dress, and then fixed his gaze on this person's face.
This woman's appearance was not good-looking, but she had a pair of gentle eyes.
She looked at Xu Tianyang gently, looking at his disheveled appearance.
She said softly: "Tianyang, didn't you promise me to take good care of the children?"
As the words fell, her face became more and more ferocious.
A mouth grew larger sharply, like a deep abyss, mixed with countless eyeballs inside, terrifying and sinister.
"Didn't you promise me?"
"You betrayed all these promises; you deserve to die, you truly deserve to die."
"You killed our son with your own hands, you drove away our daughter with your own hands, you took away my life with your own hands."
"I want you to come down and accompany me, come down and accompany us; a family should be complete!"
Yang Li reached out and choked his throat.
Lightning flashed, Yang Li's face was as ferocious as a ghost, and Xu Tianyang slowly stopped breathing.
A stumble.
Boom—
He woke up; the sound of thunder and lightning outside woke him from the nightmare.
At this time, his whole body was soaked with sweat.
"A dream... damn it, this dream is truly scary." He sighed, turned around, and wanted to hug his wife and continue sleeping.
But turning around.
Beside him, there was no wife; the quilt was cold.
"Wife, are you in the bathroom?" He shouted.
There was no response outside.
Suddenly.
Thump thump thump—
The knocking sound came again.
