Chapter 383 - 381: The Hero Arrives
Meng Chun found it hard to imagine what these ghost story enthusiasts would do after discovering that Li Meiqi couldn’t even tell the simplest of ghost stories well.
"I’ll tell everyone a story about ’The Midnight Spooky Ring.’ Once there was a woman named Qia Yazi..."
Meng Chun felt relieved. This was a story he’d told yesterday. As long as Li Meiqi could tell it completely, she should be able to get off the stage safely.
"We’ve heard that one before, tell a different one, a different one!"
But as soon as Li Meiqi began the story, the audience around her began to clamor dissatisfiedly, demanding she tell a different one.
Li Meiqi’s expression was hidden by a facial mask, but her slightly trembling body indicated that she was extremely frightened.
"Don’t, don’t rush me, then... I’ll tell you another one called ’The Curse.’ The main character of this story is a woman from Sakura District, her name is Qia Yazi..."
This story had been told by Meng Chun a few days earlier and was rich in horror elements; it should be enough to get the audience through.
"Can you do it or not? Why do you keep telling stories we’ve already heard? We all told different stories. If you can’t manage that, you’ll have to accept the punishment!" The audience’s tone became increasingly hostile, and the color drained from some of their faces, turning a deathly pale akin to that of a corpse.
Seeing the atmosphere becoming more and more hostile, Meng Chun began to fear the worst possibility.
