Quick Transmigration: Even Extras Want to Be Leading Actresses

Chapter 205 Challenge ( )

Before the sorceress could even cry out in pain, Gu Shijiu had her hands tied behind her back and bound them tightly with rope. He then carried her like a chick to a large tree in the center of the village.

She found a thick rope, tied one end to the sorceress's waist, threw the other end over a tree branch, and pulled hard, suspending the sorceress in mid-air.

Gu Shijiu picked up a bucket from the side, filled it with water, and poured it over the sorceress's head.

It was winter, and the icy water made the sorceress shiver all over, leaving her in a sorry state.

At first, she still had the energy to yell and curse loudly.

"You damned bastards, how dare you treat me like this! I will never let you get away with this, I will make sure your whole family never has a moment's peace!"

It seems they've come to hate even the Mo family.

Mo waved her hands repeatedly, fearing that the sorceress might attract some evil spirits to harm her.

“Master Wang, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor. It is that evil spirit that has bound you here; it has nothing to do with me.”

The sorceress questioned, "Then why didn't you come up and help just now?"

"As you can see, no one in our village can deal with her. How could I possibly be her match? I dare not."

Speaking of this, Mo suddenly remembered that this evil spirit was not even afraid of the sorceress, so how powerful must it be?

He hired people to deal with her, but it's useless now, and he doesn't know what they'll do to him...

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. Suddenly, she turned around and saw Gu Shijiu staring blankly in their direction, seemingly lost in thought.

"Help...help me—" Mo took off running, but tripped over the threshold due to excessive tension and hit her head on the ground.

Ugh, I'm dizzy again.

However, Gu Shijiu was not surprised at all. She had seen more than one or two female protagonists like Mo Shi, and it was normal for them to faint frequently.

And for some reason, these women, though seemingly delicate and frail, possessed extraordinary vitality, remaining unharmed no matter what injuries they sustained.

Gu Shijiu simply let Mo Shi faint there.

The village chief hesitated for a moment: "Fang, this person is not from our village. If he dies here, it will be difficult to explain."

"That's your business, what does it have to do with me? I'm not the village chief. Besides, he's just tied up, how could he die?"

Gu Shijiu hadn't figured out how to deal with this fortune teller yet.

The village chief was stunned by the confident tone, and because he was really scared, he didn't try to persuade her any further.

Seeing that there was no excitement to watch, the villagers left in twos and threes, and what they talked about in private is unknown.

The sorceress was still cursing: "You son of a bitch, you little whore, I was just not paying attention and fell for your trick."

"Once I call all the men in the village over, I'll make you wish you were dead."

She cursed for a while, but when she saw that no one was paying attention to her, she started to get scared.

As the man gradually lost his strength, his cursing became intermittent.

As darkness fell, she grew increasingly cold and felt completely exhausted. The sorceress's attitude underwent a complete 180-degree turn, and she began to beg for mercy.

"Please, let me go! I know I was wrong. I'm just a poor old woman who made a mistake in a moment of confusion. I don't want to die!"

Tears streamed down her face, mixed with dust, making her filthy. Her body trembled incessantly, whether from the cold or fear, it was hard to tell.

Gu Shijiu found it rather intriguing; was this the legendary person who had two faces?

"I'm just helping to discipline my disobedient daughters. If you're angry, you should go after the one lying on the ground."

Gu Shijiu went out for a free meal, and before leaving, she gave Mo Shi a tap on the head to keep her from waking up.

The sorceress was also called Mo Shi, but unfortunately the other person was like a dead person and could not be woken up at all.

In the evening, Gu Shijiu returned home after a hearty meal and went straight to his room to sleep, seemingly having forgotten about the sorceress and Madam Mo.

No one from the village came to rescue them.

As night fell, the sorceress felt as if countless red-hot needles were piercing her wounds, the pain spreading throughout her body.

A cold night wind blew by, and her teeth chattered from the cold.

It was pitch black all around, and not a sound could be heard.

Just as the sorceress was in a daze, a chilling wind suddenly swept by, carrying a faint sobbing sound. In her daze, she saw several blurry figures slowly drifting towards her.

The sorceress blinked hard, trying to see clearly, but was horrified to discover that the images were of the girls she had killed.

The girls' faces were as pale as paper, their eyes were empty and lifeless, their lips were bluish-purple, and their hair was flying wildly in the wind like a tangled mess.

They were still wearing the tattered clothes they had worn when they were tortured; the ragged strips of cloth fluttered in the wind, like banners summoning souls from hell.

One of the girls still had deep bloody marks on her neck from being strangled with a rattan cane; the wounds looked particularly gruesome in the darkness.

She stretched her hands forward, her fingers bent into bizarre shapes, her nails long and sharp, seemingly still bearing traces of dried blood.

They floated up to the sorceress, their icy aura hitting her face.

The sorceress tried to shout for help, but her throat felt like it was blocked by something, and she could only make a weak "gurgling" sound.

She struggled desperately, trying to break free of the ropes, but her body was firmly bound and she was helpless.

"You wicked man, give me back my life!"

A girl spoke softly, her voice like an ice dagger piercing the eardrums.

Another girl then floated to the sorceress's side, opened her mouth, and sprayed a putrid stench onto her face;

Then he gently ran his cold, sharp fingers across her cheek, like a cold snake wriggling on her face, instantly raising goosebumps on her skin.

Another girl went around behind the sorceress and put her hands on her shoulders. The weight seemed to weigh a ton, making it hard to breathe.

"Wang Daxian? Heh, you're just a vicious village woman! Today I'll make you pay for all these girls' lives."

The sorceress's pupils dilated, and her voice trembled uncontrollably: "Everyone—please, please let me go! I know I was wrong."

"You don't know you're wrong, you just know you're going to die. What did we do wrong to deserve this treatment?"

"I am willing to perform rituals for you and do anything to atone for my mistakes. Please have mercy and grant me a way to live!"

However, they showed no intention of letting the sorceress off the hook.

Several ghosts stretched out their hands, which were like withered tree branches, and slowly reached out. The sorceress stared wide-eyed as she watched the hands slowly approach her neck.

The chill was getting closer, and even breathing seemed to freeze.

The sorceress's heart pounded wildly, her mind went blank, filled only with endless fear.

Just as the cold fingers touched her, the sorceress let out a desperate gurgling sound from her throat, her eyes bulging out as she stared intently at what was in front of her.

Immediately afterwards, it felt as if an invisible hand was gripping her heart tightly, and a sharp pain struck her, as if her heart was about to explode.

Then, the sorceress's head drooped down, limp and lifeless; she was terrified by the illusion she had conjured up.

Gu Shijiu was unaware that the sorceress had died from the fear she felt before her death and was fast asleep in bed.
