Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 373: Chapter 373 Really Scared to Insanity

At that moment, Ding Dani looked at Chiang Xiao and said in a strange tone, ”You all better not get too close to a certain someone, maybe she’s a ghost herself!”

Chiang Xiao these days really wasn’t the same as before, and her mom often secretly scolded her at home, saying it’s very possible that when she fell into Nameless Creek, she was actually possessed by the Water Ghost.

They say that the current Chiang Xiao may not be the real Chiang Xiao.

However, since Ding Dani had also fallen into Nameless Creek, Niu Guiying dared not spread these words, otherwise Chiang Xiao would definitely drag Ding Dani down too.

She also warned Ding Dani not to go around talking nonsense, but now Ding Dani was finding it hard to hold back.

”Nonsense, Ding Dani, are you talking about Chiang Xiao?” Sun Xiaoxing couldn’t help but roll her eyes, ”What are you trying to say?”

”If there are ghosts on Bai Gu Mountain, there must be some in Nameless Creek! Someone here fell into Nameless Creek before! She isn’t afraid of the ghosts on Bai Gu Mountain, maybe because she knows that ghost!” A girl who was close with Ding Dani had heard Ding Dani say such things in private, so she immediately glared at Chiang Xiao and blurted it out.

Ding Dani met Chiang Xiao’s half-smiling gaze.

”The ’someone’ you’re talking about, is it me or Ding Dani? Let’s not forget, Ding Dani also fell into Nameless Creek,” Chiang Xiao said indifferently.

Just then, the homeroom teacher, Song Tianyang, walked in, and happened to hear their conversation, immediately frowned and said, ”Classmates, you are students of the new era, you should believe in science! There are no ghosts in this world, don’t propagate feudal superstition! And certainly don’t use this kind of thing to speculate and slander your classmates, understand?”

”Yes, Teacher.”

They were still somewhat afraid of their homeroom teacher, and at his words, they immediately fell silent, not daring to speak any further.

Song Tianyang looked at Chiang Xiao and gestured, ”Chiang Xiao, come out for a moment.”

Chiang Xiao stood up and followed him out of the classroom. Song Tianyang took her to the office, where there were two other teachers grading papers. Seeing Chiang Xiao come in, they actually put down their work and looked over with quite a bit of interest.

”Chiang Xiao, I heard that you and your grandfather also went to Bai Gu Mountain yesterday, is that right?”

Chiang Xiao nodded helplessly and quietly affirmed.

It seemed like the whole village knew about it, huh? How much of a fuss did Old Lee and the others make yesterday?

”You didn’t find any problems?” One of the female teachers scrutinized her, then realizing her words might be inappropriate, hurriedly added, ”I mean, you didn’t find anything unusual on Bai Gu Mountain?”

Song Tianyang glanced at her and said, ”Teacher Ho, at most there could be wild animals on the mountain, what else could be wrong?”

The female teacher sheepishly said, ”I’m talking about wild animals too. Old Lee and the others said there was an enormous snake chasing them, so big its tail couldn’t be seen, and they mentioned Chiang Xiao was nearby too. I’m just concerned about Chiang Xiao, that’s all.”

All of them had taught Chiang Xiao, and even if they hadn’t, they couldn’t ignore this student who consistently topped the rankings.

Did Wan Niu and the others really see a ghost?

They must be crazy, although that python was indeed quite big and frightening, it definitely wasn’t so large that its tail couldn’t be seen. It seems they really were scared out of their wits.

”I’m fine, it was a shock, but we had my grandfather’s homemade Snake-Repelling Medicine on us, and the snake didn’t come close to me.”

”Really? Your grandfather’s Snake-Repelling Medicine is effective even against such a big snake?”

Another teacher shuddered and said, ”Let’s just forget about it, even if the snake really didn’t dare to come near, the sight of it would scare you to death. Besides, with Snake-Repelling Medicine, who knows if there might be an exception?”
