Mysterious Séancer: My Doll Can Really Show Its Power
Chapter 140 Liangcheng Song Garden, Ghost Market Night Talk
Late at night, in Song Garden, Liangcheng.
As a tourist city, Liangcheng is most famous for its Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden, also known as Song Garden. It is built in a one-to-one replica of the Qingming Riverside Landscape Painting and is the golden brand for Liangcheng's tourism development.
Song Garden is bustling with people during the day, and it's very lively at night with a light show.
But after midnight, the tourists dispersed and the staff went home, turning the once unique Song-style amusement park into a gloomy place, with not a soul in sight.
There are rumors circulating that there is a ghost market in Song Garden.
It's not a market that only opens at dawn and dusk; it's exactly what the name means—a true ghost market.
Some elderly people in Liangcheng say that Song Garden is a paradise for the living during the day, but a paradise for the dead at night.
Such rumors were so convincing that almost no one came to Song Garden at night.
However, tonight is a little different.
Around 1 a.m., several furtive figures appeared on the deserted streets of Song Garden.
"Seriously, isn't it better to play games together at an internet cafe? What are you doing here in the middle of the night? Do you think you're going to see a dead person?!"
"I'm not lying to you! My cousin really told me! He saw a dead person here, and they could even walk on their own!"
"Yes, you're not lying to us, but your cousin might be lying to you!"
"You guys are really interested."
"Well, since we're already here..."
Four young people who looked like they were still in college walked along the street with their backs bent low.
Perhaps influenced by the eerie and silent environment around them, none of them wanted to talk much.
Until someone asked, "This Song Garden is so big! Where are we going to find a dead person?"
"Yeah, Monkey, did your cousin say specifically where he saw it?"
"He said it! He said it was on the Kowloon Bridge! The dead man came out of a hole under the bridge!"
"Hey guys, why are we crouching down and walking forward?"
"I don't know, I just feel safer this way."
A short while later, the young men crouched down and walked onto the bridge, hiding behind the railing to survey their surroundings.
The antique Song-style amusement park, which is charming during the day, seems somewhat out of place under the cover of night.
But these young men were clearly unaware that they were desperately trying to find the hole under the bridge.
"You guys, have you found it? Where's the hole under this bridge?" The 'monkey' who led the group asked the others.
"I didn't find anything..."
"I couldn't find it either."
"Is there a hole under this bridge?"
"Let's go back to playing games together!"
The group responded in turn, but none of them could find the hole under the bridge.
The monkey muttered, "Let me think, what did my cousin say to me back then... Oh right!"
"We have to hide!"
"My cousin said that if there are people on the bridge, then the dead won't come out!"
"We need to find a place to hide!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately searched the surrounding area for a place to hide, but it was clear that these young people were not cut out for this kind of work. After searching for a long time, they were either too far from the bridge or couldn't hide at all, as they could be seen at a glance from the bridge.
Finally, the group squatted under the eaves behind the bridge and waited silently.
"Brothers, we'll wait here for half an hour!"
The lead monkey confidently told its companions, "Let's just treat this as a stroll; the air here is nice!"
"If we actually find a dead body, it won't be a waste of all that effort we've put in all night. If we don't find one, we'll just go back to playing!"
The others, each hiding in a dark corner of the eaves, said in turn, "Alright, alright, we're already here..."
"I must have been an idiot to come out and do this with you guys."
"Are dead people that interesting?"
"Looks good my foot, you're just looking for a thrill."
The night wind howled, and the group of people hid there.
Twenty minutes passed quickly.
During this time, no one spoke.
As the time drew nearer, someone suggested, "Looks like we won't see any dead bodies tonight, let's retreat?"
The others had differing opinions. One said, "I don't think anyone will die by dawn."
"Do you really want to see dead people? Actually, this is a pretty good location."
"No way, you guys actually think there are dead people here? Have you been reading too many novels?"
"I'm a little sleepy, guys."
Hearing the responses from the people around him, the monkey suddenly felt something was wrong. The next second, he turned his head sharply to look into the eaves behind him!
Within seconds, the monkey recalled the conversation it had with its group when they entered the park!
He realized that there were only four of them in his group!
But it always seems like there are five people talking!
"I remember, when we were in the internet cafe before, it seemed like we were playing as a four-man team, right?" Monkey's voice trembled.
"Yes, that's right, it's Four Blacks."
"Did you forget we just sprayed one with four sprays?"
"Just thinking about that thing makes me angry. I'll add him as a friend and keep ranting about it when I get back!"
"sharp!"
The monkey's expression changed drastically, and he looked in the direction of the "Amazing!" as if he had been electrocuted!
But how could he see clearly from the dark eaves?
He said, trembling, "I...I heard that when Zhang Yuan said he was leaving early, there were...four people who responded to him..."
As soon as the monkey finished speaking, the corridor fell silent.
The sound of the rushing river and the croaking of frogs and chirping of insects sounded rather jarring to the group of people.
At this moment, a young man wearing glasses said, "What are you all so suspicious about? I just said a couple of things! 'No dead people will appear by dawn' and 'I'm a little sleepy'—those were just my own words!"
Hearing this explanation, the others breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"Monkey, stop scaring me! It's the middle of the night..."
"Yeah! You scared me!"
You startled me too.
"Yeah, I jumped once too."
The monkey sniffed, a "this is fucking exciting" expression on his face. He took two deep breaths and said, "Brothers, but just now when Zhang Yuan said he was leaving—"
"I didn't say anything!"
"I didn't say anything!"
The monkey got more and more excited as he talked, and he strode towards the direction from which the voice that had just said "Yeah, I jumped too" had come!
"Damn it, are you trying to scare me? I'll see what kind of monster you are!"
However, the monkey had only taken two steps when suddenly, *clatter clatter*—
Hurried footsteps came from in front of them!
The monkey looked up and saw the moonlight shining through the eaves!
A mummified corpse dressed in Song Dynasty official robes was running rapidly toward him in a very awkward posture, swinging its legs quickly!
Looking at that pale, rotting, and horrifying dead face, a thunderbolt exploded in the monkey's mind!
Not just monkeys!
The other young people who turned around upon hearing footsteps had the exact same reaction!
They said they came looking for a dead person, but who the hell would have thought they actually found one!
What happened to the saying that life is full of disappointments?!
How come it worked so well for me this time?!
Without any setbacks whatsoever?!
Moreover, judging from the direction the dried corpse was running, it was heading straight for us!
It looks like we're going to have to get up close and personal?!
What was that saying again?
A relationship that involves mutual commitment is truly meaningful!
At that moment, the dead man they were looking for was rushing towards them!
