Chapter173.
I heard his murmur. That tone... did he know something? I looked up at him.
'Don't look atlike that; it distracts me,' Evan's large hand covered my head, turningback.
When did I even look at him? Feeling teased again, I turned my attention back to the next room. Fiona, covered in ash, stood up, her face full of pleading. "Save my daughter, please! I'll do anything you ask." MadHuang remained silent, her face contorted in pain, as if possessed. She began to convulse again; the wooden plaques on the walls rattled more violently; one snapped in half; the Buddha statues on the shelf shattered; the lights flickered wildly...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA strange, neither male nor female, neither old nor young voice emanated from MadHuang. "I died so horribly! I won't forgive her! I want her to die! I want her to die!" The words "I want her to die" echoed repeatedly, creating an omnipresent resonance in the room. Fiona was too terrified to scream.
"Girl, it's trying to possess you, to kill Mrs. Crowe! Quickly, stop it.....” MadHuang's normal voice emerged. Sherry quickly grabbed a kitchen knife and dragged half a pig to Fiona, wildly hacking at it.
Blood and flesh flew everywhere, splattering Fiona's face. She screamed, trying to escape but unable to stand, crawling on the ground, her nerves on the verge of collapse.
Holy mother of god. This spectacle was terrifying! Evan leaned close to my ear. "Where did she learn this?" "Movies. And a Korean shaman." Even more eccentric than Chinese shamans.
Sherry finally finished hacking the pig, collapsing weakly to the side. She must be worn out. Dragging the pig, jumping, chopping, and freaking out... even Cody would be exhausted doing that. Being a shaman was physically demanding.
"Done." Wiping her sweat, Sherry put down the knife. Everything was silent. The surroundings were in disarray, as if torn apart by unseen forces. Fiona, ignoring her manners, crawled to MadHuang's feet, crying in fear.
MadHuang remained silent.
"Madame, please! I'll give you a lot of money! I'll pay anything!" Fiona urged, increasingly anxious. MadHuang's lips moved; she seemed to want to speak.
"Mrs. Crowe, since you refuse to tell the truth, please leave! MadHuang can't help you!" Sherry spoke for MadHuang, adding, “Even mountains of gold won't help you!" MadHuang's lips moved again, seeming to suppress something, her face filled with sorrow and compassion. "Alright, I'll tell you everything! Madame, giveanother chance! I won't hide anything this time!" Fiona gasped, her eyes fearfully scanning the room, as if something was lurking in the shadows.
Sherry urged, "Hurry up! If you trust MadHuang, you must tell us everything! Otherwise, not only will your 97.7% < Chapter173 daughter die, but we will too!" Mera The repeated mention of death stimulated Fiona. She gasped for breath, her eyes darting. After a while, she stammered, “When my daughter was in high school, she had... a close friend. Then, he... died unexpectedly. It wasn't my daughter! It was an accident, yes, an accident.. but he thought my daughter killed him! It was a misunderstanding! My daughter is innocent..." "MadHuang, I just want you to tellabout my daughter's fortune. She's getting married and having a baby." "But I sensed something was wrong. It must be about that dead boy." Her words were incoherent, blurring the focus at crucial moments. How cunning and shameless.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI finally understood why Fiona said "you're already dead". It was not aboutbut a poor boy. She wasn't worried aboutnot writing the letter of forgiveness at all. They had the support of Mrs. Louis, they didn't seeas a problem. All they cared about was Rita's future... heh, heh...
"Mrs. Crowe! Your lies still poison this room!" Sherry's voice lashed like a frost whip.
Fiona insisted, "I've told every truth! That kid's hatred for my daughter is baseless. Can you help us explain and ask him to let my daughter go? I can burn mountains of spirit money for him. If he's lonely, I'll arrange a posthumous marriage." Sherry coldly refused, "Mrs. Crowe, without honesty, even deities abandon you!" "It's not that we won't help, but you're not sincere! I told you last time, only the whole truth will help. Your lies have angered it; this time, you almost get us killed. If you don't believe me, why come? Get out of here! Don't cback!" "You may not have the chance to cback!" The last sentence made Fiona's face ashen. She clung to MadHuang's leg, "Madame, Madame, you must have a way, right?" "If you don't tell the truth, you'll die." Sherry wanted to push her. Just as she was about to tell Fiona to leave, MadHuang spoke, "I know everything, can do everything. Compassionate, though I'm hurt, I can't bear to see you die." She took out a demon-subduing amulet.“This artifact, nourished by spiritual energy, repels all darkness. Let your daughter wear it day and night for protection." "Thank you, Madame! Thank you, Madame!" Fiona received it as a treasure.
Sherry yelled, "No, Madame! This artifact is already promised to Mrs. Green! She needs it too! Ten million in offerings have been sent, but there's only one artifact!" MadHuang looked bewildered. "I forgot that! What should we do?" "Give it to me! I need it more! I'll pay double!" Hearing that the artifact would be taken by Mrs. Green, Fiona held it tightly.
"Mrs. Crowe, it's not about money; Mrs. Green is more faithful and devout!" Sherry said righteously.
MadHuang nudged Sherry."Give it to Mrs. Crowe; I feel a connection with her." "Madame! She's not sincere! She'll harm us!"
"Child, saving people is what really matters; don't forget our original intention; Give the artifact to Mrs. Crowe; her situation is too dire; without it, she won't live three days!" *** 06 51 97.7% < Chapter 173 "Fine, fine!"
Sherry, pretending to be compassionate, said, "Mrs. Crowe, to m save your daughter she must wear this amulet 24/7! Otherwise, that thing will take advantage, and it will be too late!"
She glanced behind her. Fiona shivered, grabbing Sherry's hand, her body trembling "WillwilDI be in danger? Will it targetif it can't go to my daughter? Are there more artifacts?" "That's the only..." Sherry was about to deliver a crushing blow when MadHuang quickly produced a string of prayer beads, Child, let's save her!" < Chapter134 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
