104 Something happened

” Step aside he says,” said the thug who looked like the leader of the group, he pointed at Liu Hui Ying and then chuckled appreciatively as he turned his head to look at the thugs of his group and then added, ” Look at this little guy here, he is asking us to step aside or he will make us pay for it, can you believe it?”

The other thugs chuckled as well, they all looked like they were having fun while mocking Liu Hui Ying.

” This is bad,” Yu Lingyun whispered as he looked at the way how things were turning around. ” If this goes on then the queen will be surrounded by those men, I mean she is good in one on one fights but will this be okay? I mean the number of enemies that she is facing is clearly a lot aren’t they?”

” Should we intervene?” asked Zhai Heng from the side, it was true that the three of them didn’t like Liu Hui Ying that much but for them to leave her alone when she was being attacked like this, will be too much wouldn’t it?

Zhai Tianyu looked at the men who were surrounding Liu Hui Ying and his hand reached for the hilt of his sword. ” I think we should intervene.” With that he stepped out of the hiding place but then his arms were caught by Zhai Heng and Yu Lingyun who dragged him back.

” What are you doing?” He asked but instead of replying to him, Yu Lingyun pointed to where the Queen was, Zhai Tianyu turned his head and looked at where Yu Lingyun was pointing and immediately felt his heart leap up in his throat. ” What in the world is she doing?”

Liu Hui Ying didn’t seem to be worried that she was being surrounded instead she looked calm enough to force her way past the group as she tried to walk around the thugs who were stopping her from moving forward.

Seeing her move so bravely without even bothering to look at the men who were threatening her, Zhai Tianyu didn’t know whether he should make a move or not, he stayed where he was and then turned to his brother and friend. ” What are we supposed to do in this situation?”

” Don’t ask me,” Yu Lingyun shrugged as he watched the Queen walk past the thugs while stepping on their shoes and pushing them in the ribs, throughout the entire time she didn’t even touch them in the slightest. ” She looks like she is doing fine, right? And will she be grateful if we were to save her? I mean she will only get annoyed if we were to help her.”

.....

” So are you saying that I should ignore my wife?” Zhai Tianyu snapped at Yu Lingyun, he didn’t know why he suddenly called Liu Hui Ying his wife all of a sudden but he already called her that and there was no way for him to take it back. ” If something happens to her then I will be the one who will get into trouble!”

With that, he turned around to walk towards the group of thugs who were teasing Liu Hui Ying just as one of the thugs reached out his hand and then took off Liu Hui Ying’s hat that she was wearing to cover her face.

” What the– she is not a eunuch but a woman! And a pretty one at that!” The thug who took Liu Hui Ying’s hat off cheered up as he looked at his friends. They all seemed to be looking at Liu Hui Ying as if she was some treat, seeing how the men were leering at his wife like she was eye candy, Zhai Tianyu took out his dagger and was preparing to throw it at the man when suddenly something happened —

Something eerie happened.

The ground underneath his feet started to shake and his footing started to get uneven as he tried to stand up straight.

What’s going on? He thought in his head but then —

” UWAAAH what is that?” A thug screamed as he pointed to the ground, the other thugs also retreated as they all looked at the ground.

An ugly hand that looked like it was rotting was sticking out of the ground and then following it was another hand and then another.

” What is the–” Zhai Tianyu was stupefied but before he could take a closer look at the happenings in front of him, he was dragged by Zhai Heng who also noticed the peculiarity of the situation. ” What is that? Is that–”

” A hand of a corpse.” Yu Lingyun answered him as he swallowed hard. ” And it’s moving!”

The hand was indeed moving and not only was it moving, the thing inside seemed to be trying to crawl out as the thugs tried to stay away from the thing but one by one the things that were inside the ground moved and then a horrible sight came over in front of their eyes.

The corpses, rotting, decayed— of all kinds dragged themselves out of the ground as the thugs who were leering at Liu Hui Ying screamed, a bunch of them pissed themselves as they stared at her in shock and horror.

” Monster!”

” AHHH it’s a demon!”

” SOMEONE SAVE ME!”

The thugs broke into screams but no matter how they screamed the corpses didn’t stop nor did they show any pity maybe it was because they didn’t know what pity meant being dead and everything. The corpses attacked the men and Zhai Tianyu and the others shuddered in horror as they watched the corpses piercing the chest of a man with their hands, they seemed to be looking around for something as they took out the heart of the man coupled with a few organs.

The man who was attacked dropped to the ground but even after death he didn’t receive peace, the corpses continued to attack him like man-eating monsters before they wiped him clean, bone and flesh alike.

The other men who saw this all screamed in terror as they tried to run but it was too late.
