Chapter 453

【Grave robbing is not sightseeing, nor is it composing poetry; it is a technique, a technique of destruction. When ancient nobles built their tombs, they must have tried every possible way to prevent their own graves from being robbed; thus, they used every extreme measure, setting up various mechanisms, hidden weapons, ambushes, and countless giant stones, quicksand, poison arrows, poisonous insects, and pits in the tombs...】

Grave robbing?

Xue Rou and her boyfriend were both stunned as they listened to the voice.

Isn't this a supernatural novel?

Why does it start by talking about grave robbing?

"Could it be that this novel by You Mingyue is about the protagonist going to rob a grave and then encountering a ghost?" Xue Rou, who also writes web novels, instantly began to speculate.

In fact.

It was not far off.

It was just perhaps even more terrifying than encountering a ghost.

The two of them, filled with curiosity, continued to listen.

【My grandfather was named Hu Guohua. The Hu family ancestors were famous wealthy landlords in the surrounding ten miles and eight villages. During their most glorious period, they bought more than forty houses connected by three alleys in the city...】

Hearing this.

Xue Rou's red lips parted, and surprise flashed across her face.

What surprised her was that this was actually a book written in the first person.

You Mingyue is truly bold!

You must know that this is a narrative style that has long been eliminated by the web novel circle; readers are accustomed to reading novels in the third person.

But thinking about it carefully, it also makes sense.

If used well, the first-person perspective in a supernatural novel can increase immersion and the reading experience.

It just puts the author's skill to a special test.

One can only say, as expected of You Mingyue, high skill makes one bold!

The two continued to listen.

Soon, the terrifying plot appeared:

【In order to deal with his uncle, after Hu Guohua returned home, he found a craftsman in the village to make him a paper figure, the kind burned for the dead. The paper-making master was very skilled; he made Hu Guohua a paper woman pasted with white paper according to his request... Hey, it really looked just like a living person.】

Under the influence of the empathy talent.

"Hiss."

"Hiss."

Xue Rou and her boyfriend both gasped, their faces turning slightly pale.

That paper figure seemed to appear before their eyes through the text description.

It made one's skin crawl.

The voice continued.

It said that a few days later, Hu Guohua's uncle came to visit his nephew, but found a beautiful young wife in the room, and praised Hu Guohua greatly, but Hu Guohua's heart skipped a beat, and cold air surged.

Because this woman was the female paper figure he had hired someone to make!

She... had come to life!

Xue Rou and her boyfriend also felt their scalps tingle as they listened.

The text was not particularly terrifying, and the plot was not particularly tense, but just like an old story passed down by word of mouth, it made one feel creepy.

Moreover, for some reason, the more they listened, the more terrifying it became, and their hearts were trembling with tension.

Even though it was broad daylight, it gave off an eerie feeling.

Xue Rou, sitting in the passenger seat, even vaguely felt that there was something in the back seat.

She had disheveled hair, her face was extremely white, with no trace of blood...

The reader was afraid, and Hu Guohua in the book was equally afraid; he decided to get rid of the paper figure.

【Hu Guohua went up to burn the paper figure, but the paper figure suddenly spoke, scolding him for having no conscience and saying she wanted to marry him. Hu Guohua naturally dared not agree, and the paper figure told him that she was a ghost attached to the paper figure, and if he couldn't go on in the future, he could find her at Shisanlipu...】

It's a ghost!

Xue Rou and her boyfriend felt completely uncomfortable, with goosebumps breaking out all over.

"Turn... turn it off, I'm scared, this novel is really terrifying!"

It wasn't that they didn't want to read it; the story was extremely wonderful and engaging, but the painful part was that it was just too wonderful and too scary.

He hadn't forgotten that he was driving at the moment; if there was something even more terrifying later, it would be easy to have an accident.

"Okay!" Xue Rou nodded in response.

She had always been bold, but at this moment she was already scared, feeling fearful in her heart.

The strange thing was, although she was afraid, she wanted to continue listening, as if this novel had some kind of wonderful magic that could hook people's hearts.

However, it was clear that the current environment was not suitable for continuing to listen.

"People light candles, ghosts blow out lamps, as expected of You Mingyue! The new book is amazing! Both scary and good!" Xue Rou exclaimed.

Her boyfriend on the side nodded in agreement.

He hadn't been this scared reading a novel for a long time.

What was even more outrageous was that this was only the first chapter of the novel.

The terror and brilliance to follow could be imagined.

……

The plot of "the paper figure coming to life" was actually something many people had not seen, because for some reasons, it was later deleted by the original author.

But the novel the young girl obtained from the system was complete.

Blue Star China did not have such restrictions, so she chose to keep it.

……

On the other side.

Gu Qingyao's teeth were already chattering, her heart was extremely uneasy, and her pretty face was devoid of color.

At this moment, she had already reached the Savage Gully.

If the beginning of the novel was just eerie, then from the moment Hu Bayi, Fatty Wang, and Yingzi entered the Liao General's tomb in the Savage Gully, and then entered the Kwantung Army fortress, the entire novel became directly sinister!

The terrifying atmosphere was instantly maxed out!

Fierce and evil things emerged one after another, and the tension and excitement kept her nerves tightly coiled.

Red-haired zombie!

Grassland giant sloth!

And those two dead boy and girl children...
