Chapter 38
The Scariest Thing Is the Sudden Silence In the Air
Yang Tao listened attentively, and Jiang Xi also taught her seriously. The attitudes of these two people made the surrounding people’s scalps tingle. Why? Why was she teaching hanging experience? Why did they have to learn the experience of hanging?
In fact, the onlookers could see that Yang Tao did not want to live anymore. From the moment she was thrown out of the Du family’s door with the child in her arms and the moment her parents saw her as a stain on their reputation, she had no way out. It was her fault for having this child, but the Du family was also responsible for it. She had been obsessed with the Du family’s money and spent so much effort stealing Jiang Xi’s fiancé. She thought that she could marry into the Du family after getting pregnant with the child, but unexpectedly... She had come to the Du family before she even finished her confinement. She no longer cared about her own health. In fact, Yang Tao had thought that she had come to the Du family today to give herself one last chance. If the Du family still refused to acknowledge her and her child, she would kill herself in front of the Du family’s gate with her child in her arms, until she met Jiang Xi.
“Hanging is good in many ways, but it’s a little uncomfortable. When you stick your head out, there will be a strong smell of blood exploding in your throat. At that moment, you can’t help but wonder if you want to die. If you kick the stool away, there’s no turning back. You might even hear the sound of your throat being strangled, but you haven’t died at that time. It’s a very special experience...” After Jiang Xi finished speaking, she looked at Yang Tao as if she had experienced it before.”Don’t worry, I’m just telling you from my experience. I’m not lying.”
“Little girl, don’t teach others blindly. You’re talking nonsense about what you know.” An old man’s eyes widened. He had also heard Du Lin’s words just now and knew that Jiang Xi was the poor woman whose fiancé had been stolen by Yang Tao. Logically speaking, Jiang Xi and Yang Tao should have a grudge against each other, and Jiang Xi had come to take revenge. She wanted to trick peach yang into hanging himself!
Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment, then she looked at the old man with dissatisfaction. She put one hand on her waist and said righteously, “Me? If I’m speaking nonsense, is there anyone who isn’t speaking nonsense? Come out and confront me! I hung myself three times. Last time, when this pregnant woman came to me with Du Lin to show off, I immediately used a white silk cloth to climb up the roof beam. She even said that I was talking nonsense. Who has more experience than me in hanging? I’m telling you, no one would dare to claim first place if I claim second place in the hanging myself!”
The old man was so choked by Jiang Xi that he could not say anything. This little girl was better than nothing but hanging herself! Did she think everyone was like her and can still live after hanging themselves? A normal person would directly meet the king of hell after hanging themselves!
However, Jiang Xi’s words made Yang Tao hesitate for a moment. Not only was hanging an ugly sight, but the process of death was also very painful. It was terrifying just thinking about it. Jiang Xi tied a dead knot on her belt, then ran to get a small bench that was just right for her to step on. She then tried to put her neck on it to test her strength. Her actions frightened the people around her.
“Here, I’ve helped you test it. It’s very strong. I’ll take the belt back when you’re dead. Don’t be so long-winded, I still have to go home for the Mid-Autumn Festival.” With that, Jiang Xi gestured to Yang Tao and then stood aside to wait.
At this moment, the entire street was silent. Even Yang Tao’s naked child had stopped crying. It was as if someone had grabbed her by the neck in an instant. The scariest thing was the sudden silence in the air.
Du Lin’s heart was going crazy. He was extremely afraid. What kind of women had he provoked?!
Yang Tao swallowed her saliva and felt a little flustered. At this moment, she looked at the white belt hanging on the beam and felt a chill run down her spine.”I... I...”
Just as Yang Tao was hesitating, Jiang Xi suddenly thought of something and said, “By the way, I heard that if you wear red clothes when hanging yourself, you can turn into a malicious spirit and pester your enemies. I don’t know if it’s true or not. I’ll tell you after I try it out next time.” Jiang Xi added in her heart, ‘That is if you are not dead by then.’
Du Lin only felt a chill. He trembled as he said, “Jiang Xi... Tomorrow... I can’t go to your house to propose a marriage tomorrow. I just remembered that I’m going out with my friend. I probably can’t go to your house to propose the marriage.” He did not want to marry Jiang Xi! He could not afford to offend Jiang Xi, who would hang himself at the slightest disagreement!
At this moment, Jiang Xi and Yang Tao were both looking at Du Lin with gloomy eyes. Du Lin felt a tingling sensation on his back and his scalp! ‘I’m going to die, I’m going to die, who can save me?!’
