At the same time, all three wooden spikes found their mark on the ghost's face.
The ghost let out a piercing shriek, twisted where she stood, and vanished into the earth.
The trapdoor overhead rattled, and Tang Xiaoxue's head appeared at the top of the stairs.
"What was that noise? What did you do?"
Li Qiuchen quickly waved her off. "Nothing, go back to sleep!"
