Chapter 241: The Flayed Woman! Possession!
“Sigh...”
From within the deep darkness of the night came the sound of a woman’s sigh, and it sounded mournful, cold, and filled with resentment.
Inside the room, two members of Meng Hai’s caravan suddenly stared blankly ahead. Out of everyone in the room, only those two heard the woman’s sigh.
People with bad luck were more likely to attract unclean things. Those two, it seemed, were just that sort.
By now, several others in the room were already unable to hold on and had dozed off. When the chill wind swept in, even Meng Hai and Master Qi felt waves of drowsiness. Their eyelids were heavy, and their bodies were sinking toward sleep.
The living carry three flames of yang atop their head and shoulders; those with strong blood and qi had bright flames, and ghosts dared not approach.
Especially in a room full of grown men brimming with vitality, men like Master Qi and Duan Dali, who practiced martial arts, were like beacons of fire to ghosts, not something to draw near to lightly.
But as the cold wind flowed in, the three yang flames on everyone’s bodies began to dim, like candles flickering in the wind.
Faint footsteps drew closer and closer to the room.
Creak... creak...
Something slipped in through the crack of the door! It was a woman, her face gloomy, her eyes gleaming with venomous resentment, her clothing that of the Kingdom of Qian.
Yet her appearance made one’s scalp prickle, for she was nothing more than a flattened human skin. Her body was unnaturally pressed thin and distorted.
