Both Michael and Clara were stunned with the same shocked and dumbfounded faces.
The group of people watched Susie go up to provoke the two ghosts aggressively and then saw her say something, attacking with her butt.
Before recovering from the shock, they saw her throw the Spirit Gourd out and yelled 'Go fight for me'.
They couldn't see what happened later. After all, the water ghost was knocked out of the body, so they couldn't see them anymore.
The flirting ghost who was thrown out suddenly was also confused.
She fought instinctively, and when she stepped on a female vile ghost, and the younger vile ghost next to her knelt down and begged her to not hurt her mother, she didn't understand what was going on.
Susie clapped her hands and praised, "Auntie, you are amazing!"
The flirting ghost subconsciously said, "Of course."
The young vile ghost was kneeling, crying, and begging, "My mother and I were wrong, we will never do bad things again, please let us go."
Susie shook her head, "How many lives have you claimed?"
The girl struggled in her eyes and said, "There are only seven or eight."
Susie frowned, seven or eight, how could she use the word 'only'.
The vile ghost, who was stepped on by the flirting ghost, seemed to have his throat blocked by sand, and said in an ugly voice, "Rebecca, don't beg her."
"This time we failed."
The vile ghost stared at Susie, very unwillingly.
She only needed to devour one more innocent soul, one more!
She could become an evil ghost and leave this river forever.
She drowned in this river tens of thousands of times, she couldn't bear it, she chose to devour other ghosts so that she could leave here quickly.
Susie didn't care what the mother vile ghost said, she just looked at the ghost named Rebecca and asked, "What's your name, where are you from, and how did you die?"
Rebecca hesitated for a moment, with a hint of despair in her eyes, and said, "We used to be residents on the shore, and almost eight years ago, there were still self-built houses in the village in the city."
She pointed to the other side of the river, but tall buildings had been built there now, and the old buildings had disappeared.
"One weekend, my mother and I went to the river to wash quilts."
"My mother felt that the quilt was too big and the washing machine couldn't clean it, so she went to the river."
"My father came along, but my father was swimming in the river."
Rebecca's mother suddenly fell into the river while washing. Rebecca hurried to pull her mother, but she fell into the water too.
"My mum yelled for help, but my dad swam too far away to hear her."
Rebecca said, crying sadly, "My mother and I drowned like this."
"After we drowned, we became water ghosts here. Mom was very angry and didn't want to reincarnate. She hated my dad because he didn't look back no matter what she called him."
The mother seemed to recall the scene and her eyes was red.
It was fine for the mother that she died, but even her daughter died, and her husband was swimming in the river a hundred meters away. Obviously, her daughter had a chance to be rescued.
But her daughter followed her and drowned!
"I hate him!" The mother ghost hoarsely gritted her teeth, "I'm going to find him and kill him! Ask him if his ears are just for display?"
Rebecca continued, "Due to getting stuck in the mud and being entangled in water plants, Dad didn't see us after looking for a while. He thought we were going home, so he just came back."
"Later, Dad took people to fish us with poles a few times, but they didn't find us."
Susie frowned, "How did you kill Helen?"
The mother ghost struggled a bit, but seeing that she couldn't break free, she gave up.
Rebecca glanced at her mother before telling her what had happened in the past two days.
It turned out that Helen didn't intend to commit suicide at all. After she quarreled with her mother, she went to the river and sat on a stone bench by the river in a daze.
"Because she was alone, my mum and I approached and tried to attract her."
"Then I heard her on the phone with her mother. Her mother was very angry and asked her where she had been. Helen said she was in the park by the river."
Rebecca paused, pursed her lips, and said, "Helen's mother was very angry when she heard that, and said Helen was threatening her with suicide and told her that if Helen dared to drown herself, then do it."
Susie asked, "And then?"
On the side, Martin, Kellen, Clara, and Michael could only watch Susie talking to herself.
They were scared when they saw ghosts, but since they couldn't see a ghost, they couldn't "listen to the story", which made them feel hanging.
They were all curious about what the water ghost said to Susie.
Clara muttered, "I should have caught Wade with me."
At this time, Rebecca was continuing to say, "Helen was the same age as me, and I understood her feelings very well. Before she explained, her mother hung up the phone and she squatted by the river crying."
Originally, she didn't want to kill Helen, but her mother told her not to be so soft.
"My mother said if you sympathize with others, who will sympathize with us?"
After hesitating, Rebecca's mother dragged Helen into the water.
Rebecca struggled internally, but she didn't stop in the end.
"Helen’s mother came to look for Helen one day after she died, but she couldn't find it for a whole day. At night, my mother dragged the two girls into the water again."
“Helen's mother was very anxious when she heard someone had fallen into the water."
"The boy who passed by was very brave. He was very good at swimming. The place where the two girls fell into the water was not too deep, so he saved them."
"My mother was angry, so she let me pretend to fall into the water by possessing Helen, and then that boy..."
Rebecca seemed very guilty when she said this and stopped talking.
Rebecca's mother didn't show any remorse, she just said, "They deserve it! They shouldn’t take photos by the river!"
Susie was very angry, "What about that boy? He was a good person who saved people!"
Rebecca's mother didn't care at all, "So what, he would die anyway."
Susie got angry, went up, and grabbed the mother ghost by the neck, shaking her vigorously, "You’re crazy! Your life matters and so does others’!"
Wasn't that what Clara’s said yesterday?
The mother ghost was shaken so badly that she struggled to slap Susie, but every time she hit Susie the red string in Susie's hand shimmered and hit her back hard.
The mother ghost felt that she was beating herself.
But if she didn't fight, she would be strangled by Susie. If she fight, she would hit herself. So the mother ghost was furious, "Stop!"
Susie didn't stop.
With the double attack, the mother ghost was finally pinched by Susie, turned into evil dust with a pop, and absorbed by the Spirit Gourd.
The flirting ghost was shocked at how powerful Susie was.
Susie was also taken aback, then looked at her empty hands and pursed her lips.
Why adults were so complicated?
Why did they always like to blame others?
Susie was so confused why as a kid, she seemed to understand much more than those grown-ups.
