Walking on the way to school, Lu Yibei munched on a seven-minute cooked egg pancake with two eggs, bought at the entrance of the residential area, while flipping through the Monster Story Chat Group's records.

He quickly skimmed through the Monster Story Chat Group, from the chat records between 7 PM yesterday evening and midnight.

【00:05 Online Lecher 0: Since someone asked, I'll elaborate on the different feelings various urban legend girls give me! Let me light a cigarette...】

【00:07 Online Lecher 0: Let me think, where should I start? How about Zombie girls first? Let me give you a heads-up here, Zombie girls are the urban legend girls I least recommend!

Although their bodies are cool and filled with Yin energy, which can help cool you down in the summer, their body odor is really too strong for most people to handle, and their limbs are very stiff, making many positions impossible to achieve...】

【00:10 Online Lecher 0: If you are truly interested in that type of urban legend, I personally recommend Vampire Princesses, but be prepared to have your neck bitten at any time, and remember to go to the hospital for a rabies shot afterward.】

Lu Yibei read the nonsense from this netizen whose ID was Online Lecher 0, and couldn't help but laugh, secretly sighing that the imagination of these silly netizens is truly vast!

This ♦ is definitely not a ride to kindergarten!

With such eloquence, why not write a book titled "A Guide to Appreciating urban legend Girls"?

Thinking this, Lu Yibei continued scrolling down. It wasn't long before she frowned.

【00:35 Online Lecher 0: Finally, I have to mention this again, Demonesses are damn awesome!】

Lu Yibei, "..."

This...

Damn! I feel offended!

Bro, this is probably no longer just your XP, this ♦ must be an SGP entry, right?

...

Buried in reading the chat records of the Monster Story Chat Group, Lu Yibei walked for about fifteen minutes and arrived at the classroom door in the Integrated Arts and Science Building.

Looking up to confirm the classroom number, Lu Yibei put away her phone, walked into the classroom, and found a corner to sit down.

Although she had already arranged to meet with the Counselor today to discuss the speech, she still planned to finish this class first before going to the School of Literature office.

When Lu Yibei came into the classroom and sat down, there weren't many students in the classroom. They were gathered in small groups, discussing things they were interested in.

Perhaps because there were still more than ten minutes before class started, the students didn't seem to be controlling their volume. Even sitting in the corner, Lu Yibei could clearly hear what they were discussing.

"Let me tell you, I'm really hyped about that new game that just came out. Not only is the story excellent and the main plot smooth, but the texture developed with the Unreal Engine 5 is truly impressive!"

"Sounds interesting! Can you top up in that game? How much do you need to top up to dominate the rankings?"

"I don't really care about ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) dominating the rankings or anything like that. The key is whether there are any 【wives】 to worship!"

"..."

Lu Yibei, "..." I feel like they're about to start fighting?

Thinking this, she withdrew her gaze from the three game enthusiasts who were completely on different wavelengths and looked at the four or five girls gathered on the other side.

She couldn't quite understand what those four or five girls were discussing either, just like many girls can't tell the difference between Jack ultraman and Zoffy ultraman, she also couldn't tell the difference between Sugar-Coated Cherry Blossom shade and Soft Mist Little Pepper shade lipsticks. freeweɓnøvel.com

Although Yun Meng's residual will was itching to explain to her, she had no intention of listening at all.

She was already worrying about how to make those residual wills completely dissipate! Carelessly using those wills might make the process even longer.

Tap, tap, tap—!

Just as Lu Yibei was feeling bored and wanted to shift her attention away from those girls, a tall girl, dressed in a rather mature and intellectual style, hurried in from outside the door and joined the girls' discussion.

With the addition of that girl, their discussion topic quickly shifted in a direction that interested Lu Yibei.

"Xiao Yun, didn't you go back to your hometown to attend a relative's funeral? Why are you back so soon?"

"Don't mention it, I was almost scared to death! If I stayed in that godforsaken place any longer, I might have lost my life." The girl called Xiao Yun said, waving her hand. As she spoke, her face turned slightly pale as if she remembered something.

"It's just a funeral, isn't it? I've attended several, and I didn't find anything scary!"

"Mine is different!" Xiao Yun explained, "I'm telling you this, but don't tell anyone else! At that funeral, there was a haunting!"

A haunting? Lu Yibei was startled for a moment. Noticing that the voices of the girls discussing had lowered, she calmly got up and moved to a seat closer to them.

"...Didn't I just say that my what's-his-name uncle disappeared along with my Grandpa's body? But later, the uncle wasn't found, yet the body was somehow found and brought back from somewhere."

"Found it? Isn't that a good thing? Rest in peace!"

"Good thing? What good thing! They say it's found, but my eldest uncle wouldn't let anyone see it. The mourning period wasn't over, yet he was in a hurry to bury it. He didn't even open the coffin during the farewell ceremony. Who knows what's inside?"

Hearing this, Lu Yibei pursed her lips. So, the superiority of advocating cremation in such places is evident, isn't it?

Some people, knowing that urban legend are happening everywhere now, still go for burial. Isn't this indirectly nurturing urban legend?

Hearing Xiao Yun say this, the girl sitting opposite her frowned slightly, "Yun, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to say that? That's your relative. Maybe there's some hidden reason why they didn't let people see."

"Of course I'm not just making things up. Listen to me finish. I saw the eerie events happen with my own eyes!" Xiao Yun argued.

"You wouldn't believe it. When they were preparing for the burial, my eldest uncle found nine strong men in the village to carry the coffin. But guess what?"

"Came back to life? But coming back to life can also be explained by scientific principles."

"It wasn't coming back to life at all!" Xiao Yun said, waving her hand. "Logically, nine people could even lift a regular car, right? But when those nine people lifted that coffin, their faces turned purple from straining, and they could barely lift the coffin off the ground, and then..."

At this point, Xiao Yun recalled what happened at the time, her face turned pale, and she remained silent for a while. Only after her classmates urged her did she continue speaking.

"Then what happened? Tell us!"

"Then, they had just carried the coffin a few steps when the ropes binding it broke, the coffin was overturned, the lid slid off, hitting and breaking the legs of two of the men, and inside the coffin..."

The girl sitting opposite Xiao Yun seemed to have guessed something, her face turned slightly pale, and she pressed, "It was empty inside?"

"Not exactly, there was still something inside." Xiao Yun frowned tightly, thoughtful, and said in a low voice, "What was inside wasn't Grandpa's body, but the second uncle. He was, he was wearing Grandpa's burial clothes..."

The girl sitting opposite Xiao Yun looked at her vacant, dazed eyes and swallowed, "Xiao Yun, this, you're not making this up, are you? Even with a body, how could it be that heavy?"

"I don't know either, but I definitely don't think it was a problem with the rope quality. They used a kind of really thick nylon rope, probably... probably..."

"Right, it was probably about as thick as the rope used for tug-of-war. With a rope that thick, even a fool could see it wouldn't just break easily."

"So, the relatives who were there at the time were all terrified, their faces turned ashen. I was standing there and just felt... a chilling silence. I even felt like my deceased Grandpa was hiding somewhere, watching that scene and laughing."

"Xiao, Xiao Yun, don't scare me! It's broad daylight, you can't scare me!"

"I didn't mean to scare you..." Xiao Yun said, "Wasn't I scared myself? No, all my relatives were scared. Within a few minutes, everyone found their own excuses and ran off."

"Oh, right, right, do you know what the most eerie thing is?"

"I'm not listening, I'm not listening!" A girl said, covering her ears, "Xiao Yun, stop talking!"

Lu Yibei, "..." You're not listening, but I want to!

"You've already told us this much, why don't you let Xiao Yun finish?"

Right, right, exactly! Let her finish! Lu Yibei glanced at the girl who spoke, silently agreeing with her in her heart.

"Okay, I'll tell you then!" Xiao Yun glanced at the scared girl and continued, "My cousin's family was the last to leave. I was almost home when they finally set off."

"He was chatting with me on the way. He said that when they finally left, they saw the eldest uncle sitting alone in the large courtyard, with the second uncle's body lying beside him..."

"My cousin said there were seventeen or eighteen tables set up for a banquet in the courtyard, filled with cold dishes. The eldest uncle just kept drinking alone. Finally, finally, he heard him talking..."

"What did he say?"

"He said..." Xiao Yun swallowed, "Dad, you've already killed my brother, what else do you want? Do you not even want to spare me? If so, then come out and take me too! This way..."

"My cousin also said that when the eldest uncle said that, he didn't feel any wind, but the white cloth hanging around the courtyard was moving especially violently, swaying and swaying, as if, as if it was waving..."

"My cousin was completely scared silly at the time. He was stunned for a while before he remembered to run. Just before he left, he took one last look at the courtyard and saw that in the main hall at the end of the courtyard, an extra red lantern had appeared..."

"That shouldn't have been his imagination. I remember it wasn't there at first; it must have been hung up later... Besides, it was a funeral; how could they possibly hang red lanterns under normal circumstances?"

Hearing this, Lu Yibei pictured it in her mind: in that kind of old-fashioned house, the deep courtyards all around were draped with white cloth, a person sat alone among the banquet tables filled with dishes, the surrounding white cloth drifted silently, and in the dimly lit main hall, a solitary red lantern hung...

This... how should I put it?

It's also fortunate that Miss's cousin dared to look! Lu Yibei thought, if it were me, I wouldn't want to stay in that place for a second, I'd even take a taxi overnight to leave!
