Knock, knock, knock.

There was a knock on the door, and the strange crying turned into distorted laughter. “Hehehe, Sister, I’m coming in to look for you…”

“No, don’t, what the hell are you! Don’t come in, don’t!” Song Lingyun screamed in fear. As she spoke, she suddenly pulled the blanket over her head and curled up on the bed, trembling.

With a creak, the tightly shut door was pushed open from the outside.

Creak, creak, creak.

A sinister and terrifying voice echoed in the room. The thing that walked in through the door didn’t seem to be human. Its body crawled and dragged on the ground with difficulty. Every movement was like bone rubbing against bone, making such a terrifying sound.

Song Lingyun trembled in fear as she heard the voice getting closer and closer.

Even with the blanket covering her, she could smell the strong smell of blood. Song Lingyun was so frightened that she didn’t dare to breathe until the sound came to her bed and stopped abruptly.

“All—!” An ear-piercing scream tore through the sky. A pair of cold hands grabbed the edge of the bed, and nails scratched it crazily. “I don’t want to die. I don’t want to die. Sister, why are you forcing me too? I clearly don’t want to. Why are you forcing me? I hate you so much. 1 hate you so much—!”

“Alihhh!” Song Lingyun screamed in fear. She suddenly lifted the blanket, took out the dagger hidden under the pillow, and stabbed at the air ruthlessly. “No, no, it has nothing to do with me. Song Lanyue, die!!”

However, Song Lingyun missed. The dagger in her hand flew out because she used too much strength, and she rolled off the bed.

Song Lingyun fell to the ground with a terrified expression and stared blankly at the ceiling.

The room was silent. Apart from opening the door, there was nothing unusual. It was as if everything just now was just her imagination.

Song Lingyun heaved a sigh of relief and revealed a sinister smile. “I knew there were no ghosts in this world! Song Lanyue has been dead for so many years. If she wanted to take revenge, she would have come long ago. Why would she wait until now…” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Creak.

Before Song Lingyun could finish speaking, a strange sound suddenly came from the bed.

No, it should be said that it wasn’t on the bed, but under the bed!

Song Lingyun didn’t dare to turn around with her back facing the bed. Waves of cold air swept over from behind her, almost wrapping her entire body. It was so cold that all the blood in her body was about to freeze.

“My good sister…” The woman’s voice was muffled, as if she had chewed it from her mouth before spitting it out. There were tears mixed in. “Sister, I’m so afraid. It’s so cold underground. Sister, it’s so cold. Come and accompany me. I’ll take you with me.”

Tap.

At this moment, a pale palm reached out from under the bed and landed beside Song Lingyun.

Song Lingyun couldn’t help but glance over and see the white jade ring on the woman’s hand.

She had seen Song Lanyue wearing that white jade ring before.

It seemed to be a love token from Shen Liu’an.

Song Lingyun’s vision darkened, and she almost collapsed.

Suddenly, a cold hand pinched her ankle.

“Ahhh! It’s not me, it’s not me. Your death has nothing to do with me. Don’t come looking for me! I was forced too. You can only blame yourself for being beautiful and attracting so many men to like you! His Majesty was greedy for your beauty. He was determined to have you. What could I do? I couldn’t defy the decree. 1 could only lie to you and bring you to His Majesty. If you want to hate someone, hate His Majesty. He forced you to say nothing. He forced you to death!” Song Lingyun completely broke down and shouted hysterically.

“I knew it. My mother’s death must have something to do with you.” At this moment, ‘Song Lanyue’ crawled out from under the bed and reached out to wipe the blood off her face..
