Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable-Chapter 392 Heavenly Master 99
Situ Shuangshuang, Zhu Yanhua, and her parents analyzed the situation and felt that the basement must have been built beneath Wang Zhonghai’s house, allowing him easy access to the girls he kept locked in there.
To ensure no alarm was raised, Situ Shuangshuang decided to go herself at night to see if she could find the entrance to the basement!
Wang Zhonghai’s room was built very large, with a big warehouse at the back for storing fruits, and a small warehouse for storing grains and coals.
There were no women in Wang Zhonghai’s house, so the pigsties and chicken coops usually found in rural homes were empty, filled with odds and ends.
Situ Shuangshuang first wandered around outside, as expected, she didn’t find any basement entrance, but did come across a cellar for storing vegetables.
It seemed that the entrance to the basement should be inside Wang Zhonghai’s house. Situ Shuangshuang rubbed her forehead and carefully recalled the appearance of the basement entrance she had seen earlier with the Moonlight Shadow Technique, uncertain which room it was in.
The main issue was that Zhu Yanling’s memory image was very blurred, related to Zhu Yanling receiving too many electric shocks, leaving her body extremely frail. Apart from people Zhu Yanling remembered clearly, other things like scenery, rooms, and paths were vague in her memory.
This was also why Situ Shuangshuang not only used the Moonlight Shadow Technique but also the Tracking Technique earlier, because the Moonlight Shadow Technique looks into the opponent’s memory, whether they were living or a spirit!
In such cases, if the opponent’s memory was clear, she saw clearly; if the opponent’s memory was blurred, she naturally couldn’t perceive their situation well.
If it was unclear and she couldn’t distinguish which room, she planned on checking each room one by one. However, Situ Shuangshuang didn’t intend to alert Wang Zhonghai, just as she had drawn a stack of Invisibility Talismans this time, which came in handy.
The Invisibility Talisman could only hide her form, not the sound of her footsteps, but Situ Shuangshuang’s martial arts were good and she could move silently. Besides, Wang Zhonghai was just an ordinary person, so avoiding his hearing wasn’t difficult.
After attaching the Invisibility Talisman, Situ Shuangshuang boldly entered the house. Wang Zhonghai’s room was surprisingly clean, without the messiness typical of a bachelor, and decorated simply and ordinarily, with nothing visibly wrong.
If something did seem amiss, it was the inexplicable ominous atmosphere filling the house! Living people wouldn’t feel this, but ghosts and demons feared it immensely. Places with such an ominous aura were avoided by a hundred ghosts! Demons dared not intrude!
But after wandering through the three rooms, Situ Shuangshuang couldn’t find what was emitting such a strong ominous aura!
Just as Situ Shuangshuang was searching room by room for the basement entrance, she noticed another thing: it was night, yet Wang Zhonghai wasn’t in the house!
Due to Wang Zhonghai becoming more withdrawn and difficult to get along with over the last two years, he had no friends and naturally no close friends to dine with or chat away time. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
The strange part was there was nowhere to while away time, and Wang Zhonghai, who should have been at home, wasn’t in the house. It was almost obvious that he must be in the basement!
Thinking of this, anger mixed with a peculiar relief rose in Situ Shuangshuang. If someone still spent time in the basement, it meant Zhu Yanling was indeed still alive!
With this thought, Situ Shuangshuang’s spirit lifted. Being alive was almost the best news there could be.
This time, Situ Shuangshuang crouched and searched the ground more carefully, examining every little trace on the floor. Finally, she noticed an unusual join on the floorboard beneath a clothes storage box.
To avoid making noise by pushing it, Situ Shuangshuang planned to lift and move the clothes storage box. Surprisingly, it was unexpectedly light, and Situ Shuangshuang easily moved the not-so-small clothes storage box without using much strength.
After moving the clothes storage box, Situ Shuangshuang examined the floor closely, noticing that it seemed normal but, upon closer inspection, revealed a floorboard that could be pulled up.
Situ Shuangshuang reached down to pry open this small piece of floorboard, finding an iron handle beneath. Clutching the handle, she pulled hard, lifting a square meter-sized piece of the floor, revealing the brick steps below.
As soon as the basement was opened, with Situ Shuangshuang’s keen hearing, she immediately heard the muffled cries of women and the angry shouting of a man coming from within!
Situ Shuangshuang frowned and quietly descended, finding it quite spacious inside. It appeared to be a passage from before; Situ Shuangshuang knew this village had dug many tunnels during the wartime years of the last century to evade enemy searches.
It seemed Wang Zhonghai’s house was inadvertently built over one of these tunnels. Not only did he keep it secret, but he expanded this underground passage, turning it into a basement. He probably had crooked intentions when he discovered this passage.
Wang Zhonghai’s constructed basement wasn’t very deep, but it was concealed enough that no matter how much noise was made inside, there was no worry of anyone outside hearing.
Upon entering the basement and not walking far, Situ Shuangshuang first encountered two terrifying-looking female ghosts!
The two female ghosts were covered in blood, and their appearance kept changing, sometimes normal, sometimes becoming extremely horrifying!
When normal, these two female ghosts appeared as two gentle-looking girls, but their horrifying looks were gut-wrenchingly frightening!
These female ghosts had limp and twisted limbs, with ears and noses cut off! Their mouths were split open to the ears and sewn shut with thread, and their teeth were ground to sharp points, like a monster’s mouth!
One of the female ghosts had both eyes gouged out, leaving two black blood-oozing cavities! The other female ghost’s body was full of iron rings, with countless punctured holes over every inch of skin, both ghosts engulfed by swirling, intense resentful energy!
These two female ghosts roamed around, occasionally letting out shrill ghostly wails inaudible to ordinary people, filled with intense resentment and indescribable desolation, invoking both terror and sadness in the listener!
