Everyone at the scene jolted at the shout.
Zhang Tieniu's face turned white, wishing he could slap Niu Lihua twice.
They should be thinking of ways to muddle through the situation, yet this woman was still making a fuss.
Village Chief Zhang frowned, "Don't talk nonsense. It's a new era; there are no ghosts or monsters."
Niu Lihua, as if deaf, opened her mouth wide and issued a gurgling noise from her throat, clearly terrified to the extreme.
Yue Jiannan looked bewildered. "What nonsense are you spouting? Do you think you can fool anyone with this act?"
As he spoke and moved closer, Niu Lihua was so frightened that she fell down on her buttocks and started to crawl backwards using all four limbs.
"Get lost, get away, don't come any closer."
Yue Jiannan was frustrated. He might not be strikingly handsome, but he was at least well-featured. Did he deserve to be treated like some vile monster?
