Chapter 198 Bian Dashou Was Caught
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56"Sh*t!" I exclaimed in my heart. Bian Dashou turned back and found that the black-haired Jiangshi had already blocked his way. Subconsciously, he took two steps back. But to our surprise, it seemed that every single move of him could stimulate the black-haired Jiangshi. This time, he only stepped back for two steps. But after that, the Jiangshi immediately stepped forward twice. Holding up its hands stiffly, it came right at him!
From Bian Dashou's expression, I knew all his hopes must have already dashed to pieces at this point. He slowly closed his eyes and waited to die! In a hurry, I rushed forward, quickly raised my leg, and kicked at the Jiangshi's outstretched claws. However, my kick only pushed its claws away. Its body didn't budge an inch because it was as hard as a rock! But my feet hurt like hell. Apparently, the Jiangshi hesitated a little because it somehow missed its close target. While by taking this chance, Bian Dashou ran back to the center of the tomb

Once Upon a Time Chapter 199 The Clown-like Old Taoist Priest
When I saw this scene in front of me, I laughed in my heart. It seemed that I thought in the wrong direction. At first, I felt that the old Taoist priest wanted to beg those villagers for alms. But it turned out that the old priest was invited here to handle the evil thing. In the turbulent days without peace, the ordinary citizens normally couldn't live in affluence. Then, why these villagers wanted to spend their money and time on the Taoist priest? Feeling curious in my heart, I also entered the village with them. When I was in the village, I discovered that this village was not that good as I had imaged. There stood many thatched cottages. But basically, not a single one of them looked decent. Also, there was basically no livestock wandering outside the houses. The overall appearance of the village was quick desolate. A group of people crowded around the old priest, and they arrived at a small courtyard, which was said to be the best one in the villag
Once Upon a Time Chapter 200 A Pseudo Demon Killer Met a Real One
After I launched this sword attack, the dazzling light on the sword suddenly turned into a spurt of raging fire and cut right at the Taoist crown of the old priest! The fire came so fast that he had no time to dodge. And so, his body took all the impact the fire brought! "Whoosh!" His Taoist crown was turned into a trail of ash flying in the air by the flame, and in an instant, this old Taoist priest became an old monk without eyebrows. Dumbfounded, the old priest touched his head. The burning pain gave him a chill and his consciousness at the same time. He flushed first. Then his face became ghastly pale. And then lots of colors vied with each other to appear on his face. This scene was incredibly funny such that I nearly laughed my ass off! This moment I was eager to play more tricks on him. But to my surprise, in this critical situation, wit suddenly came to his rescue. Quickly, he grabbed his traveling bag and the Taiji Sword on the table and then ran away fast. Wh
Once Upon a Time Chapter 201 The Ancient Crypt
Father cast a long look at the mountain, smirking wryly to himself. But there was something about his that indicated he knew what it was that made the hideous howl just now. But if anyone could remain calm and collected after hearing so ghastly and terrifying a sound, I could think of no one but Father and Mother. No one else! A shaky voice rose from the crowd of terrified villagers, "W-what... what in the world is that..." But Father did not attempt to explain. With a lazy and dismissive wave of an arm, he declared, "Go back to your homes and have a good night's rest. But remember! None of you will ever again venture into the woods at the northern face of that mountain. You'd do well to remember these words." He got up and sauntered casually towards the entrance of the village. No one moved an inch. They watched as Father meandered slowly away, staring at him wordlessly with shock and bewilderment! With hardly any concern about their fate thereafter, I scampered after
Once Upon a Time Chapter 202 Blood, Steel, and Fire
I looked to the front and the stony passage had given way into a huge cavernous hall. In some ways, it would be more apt to call it a square, for it was easily larger than the size of two basketball courts put together! But I was more shocked by the heap of human bones piling up into a huge mound on the floor. The presence of human skulls among the heap of bones was the very reason I immediately recognized them as human remains and the decaying dark greyish hues of the bones showed that they have been left here for quite some time. The air was thick with the fetid stench of rotting flesh; the same which could be imagined belching from the bowels of a man-eating monster after its pleasures of human flesh and tossing the bones aside lazily. Father fanned himself with a palm, his nose wrinkling with disgust at the smell. "I did not know that there were so many human sacrifices buried alive here when this crypt was completed. These could either be prisoners o
Once Upon a Time Chapter 203 The Graverobber's Journal
The coffin Father and I were peering into had damaged so badly that its sides were littered with holes and slits from neglect and disrepair, from which the fluids and watery flesh were seeping out like vomit being belched from a person's mouth. But what was inside left my mouth agape with surprise! There was a body lying inside! The body lying inside looked nothing like the rest; it was a man who had died only recently. A brown-copper rag bundled a bun on his head, as was the common fashion for men in the Ming Dynasty, but he was looking positively horrified as if he was screaming for his life when he died. The gaunt and scrawny man, short in height and small in girth, had green and purple wounds all around him. A closer inspection revealed that those were bite wounds; Jiangshis, no doubt. But who had left him here in this coffin? A thin smile lined across Father's lips. Saying nothing, he continued walking, heading towards the dark corridor at the end of
Once Upon a Time Chapter 204 The Sepulchral Necropolis
I could hardly utter anything as I took in the impressive vista opening before me. This was no ordinary crypt chamber. This was a palace! Many mighty pillars hewn of stones laid neatly before us, smooth as glass, each ornately-furnished with carven illustrations of mythical monsters and beasts baring their fangs ferociously. On the black polished walls on either side, images of the activities of an ancient civilization were sculpted and etched for eternal posterity. Some depicted hunting activities, some were about warfare, and there were also some about festivals and religious celebrations and so on. The vast roof far above our heads glittered with precious stones that twinkled at us like the stars in the night sky. A huge, baroque effigy of a monster hung from the ceilings with the likeness of a living beast, bedecked with precious gems that sparkled cheerfully in the dark! The stone behemoth was a gigantic mammoth that sprawled across the length and br
Once Upon a Time Chapter 205 Alone in the Dark
I stood, a miserable soul alone in the dark. Gut-wrenching powerlessness and helplessness swelled in me as I felt a tingle in my nose and tears were threatening to burst. Ever since I became a man, this was the first time I had the urge to cry. The first time I felt so alone and forlorn, powerless and weak; and me alone in the shadowy passage with complete blackness around me merely reified this sensation. I rubbed my nose and calmed myself. I have to think, and sniveling in tears would help me escape this accursed place not one bit. Wait, I thought suddenly. We took the leftmost path at the fork after leaving the main underground palace. That brought us here... I could go back and try the middle and the last path! There must surely be a way out! With my mind made up, I whirled and retrace my steps back. There was no more need to mosey around. But to my dismal astonishment, I turned back, I reached another three-way fork! The words from the
Once Upon a Time Chapter 206 Bian Dashou's Burial
IMPOSSIBLE! I almost gasped aloud. A shudder crept down my spine as the name of the deceased registered in my mind. What purpose could she have for coming here?! Then I realized why. No... Surely not... I looked around frantically, searching for the whereabouts of the ghost! The people here were all dressed in mourning garb; ghosts and spirits would find them ripe for the pickings! And my fears were proven true: the ghost found a woman in grieve, bawling loudly like a lamb being slaughtered and stepped into her, possessing her with hardly any difficulty. The woman's body jerked and fidgeted when the ghost took her and her wailing stopped and she collapsed to the ground. Two young men got up from their places beside the coffin hurriedly and they rushed to her. Others came to her aid as well and they helped the woman to her feet. The two young men must be his sons, I mused, Bian Dashou's sons. The two young men called at the unconscious woman loudly, "Aunt!
