"Animals! That pair of scumbags deserves a horrible death!"
"They're all monsters! Not one of them dared stand up for a child that small being bullied!"
"This is human nature! They'll do anything to stay alive! Fucking disgusting!"
"If you ask me, Tang Xiaoling's father is the worst of them! If it weren't for him, Xiaoling would definitely have accepted our help!"
"Exactly! That was an Exorcism Talisman and a full hundred Evil Spirit Coins! Enough to keep the little one alive!"
"Don't be so optimistic. Even if Tang Xiaoling accepted them, could she hold on to them? Don't forget, someone even stole her job as a cleaner!"
At those words, everyone who had been cursing Tang Xiaoling's father fell silent.
Yes, Tang Xiaoling's father was despicable.
But Li Zhuang and Wu Qian deserved to die even more!
Especially Li Zhuang. Not only had he robbed Tang Xiaoling of her one chance at survival.
He had personally shoved her into a bottomless abyss!
The safety inspector job was impossible for a four-year-old toddler.
Even a brilliant genius would have had no chance of surviving it!
And on top of that, the evil spirit guarding the gate had malicious designs on Tang Xiaoling too!
What kind of nightmare start was this?!!!
Damn you, heavens!
What terrible sin had this child committed? Couldn't you punish her bastard father instead?
Why did you have to visit retribution on such an adorable little girl?
But no matter how the viewers shouted and raged, the outcome could no longer be changed.
They could only watch helplessly as Tang Xiaoling walked, step by step, into the abyss of death!
While the audience filled the stream with curses, however.
Tang Xiaoling had already followed the others into the Amusement Park.
The instant they stepped through the entrance, a heavy stench of blood hit them in the face!
Even the air was thick with the reek of decay!
"Urgh..."
A female player named Zhang Yan couldn't bear the pungent smell and vomited on the spot.
Although the others forced down their nausea, their faces were twisted with discomfort too.
It was utterly revolting!
Tang Xiaoling alone showed no reaction at all.
She merely gazed around curiously with her big, dewy eyes.
When she spotted all the fun rides, a delighted smile spread across her face.
"Sir, can I really play on anything here?"
Tang Xiaoling looked at Li Zhuang and asked curiously.
A child's heart was just that innocent.
One moment, she was crying over being mistreated; the next, something fun caught her attention, making her forget all her unhappiness.
"Of course! I promise you can play on anything!"
"If you don't believe me, you can ask them."
Li Zhuang pointed at the others, his smile as wicked as could be.
But every player he pointed at instinctively lowered their head, afraid to meet Tang Xiaoling's gaze.
Only Wu Qian gave a sinister smile and said:
"This gentleman isn't lying to you. You can play on any of the rides here."
"But I'd suggest trying the Ferris wheel. You can go really high and see really far!"
Then she added inwardly, And you'll fall to your death really fast. Guaranteed painless, too!
Yet the moment she finished speaking, the evil spirit guarding the gate suddenly snapped:
"Shut your mouth, you bitch!"
"Who the hell do you think you are, giving orders here?!"
"Get lost! Go do your own job!"
The sudden tirade drained all color from Wu Qian's face, and her whole body trembled!
She didn't understand. Didn't this evil spirit want Tang Xiaoling dead too?
Why had a single remark from her made it so furious?
What she didn't know was that, just as they entered, the evil spirit had already sold Tang Xiaoling to a vengeful ghost.
Young children whose minds had only just begun to develop were that vengeful ghost's favorite food!
Rather than let Tang Xiaoling die just like that, it might as well offer her up and earn some favor.
If its flattery hit the mark this time, it might even get promoted and no longer have to guard the entrance!
As the evil spirit's scolding ended, the players didn't dare delay another moment.
They all headed to their assigned work areas according to the roles on their cards.
Within moments, Tang Xiaoling was the only one left standing there.
Looking at her tender flesh, the evil spirit couldn't help licking its lips with its scarlet tongue.
If its status hadn't been so low, it would never have willingly delivered such a delicacy straight into someone else's mouth!
"Um... sir, can I go play now?"
Seeing everyone else leave, Tang Xiaoling could no longer contain her eagerness.
The evil spirit snorted and let out a sinister cackle:
"Little girl, you're an impatient one."
"Don't worry. Someone will come and take you to play soon."
But the moment he finished speaking, a vengeful ghost approached with her hands behind her back, her entire body so badly decomposed that her organs and bones were faintly visible.
"Is this the little girl? A truly exquisite specimen!"
The vengeful ghost's eerie green eyes stared fixedly at Tang Xiaoling.
Maggots even wriggled through the filthy whites of her eyes!
Yet when Tang Xiaoling looked at this terrifying figure.
All she saw was a hunched, frail old granny.
"Granny, are you going to take me to play?"
Tang Xiaoling asked politely in her sweet voice.
But the instant she spoke, the evil spirit flew into a rage:
"How dare you! You actually called Elder Zhao 'Granny'?"
"Who do you think you are?!"
Tang Xiaoling froze at the rebuke, then her eyes filled with tears.
Just as she was about to burst into sobs, the vengeful ghost addressed as Elder Zhao chuckled and said:
"Enough. Why pick a fight with a child?"
"Besides, 'Granny' sounds rather nice. It's been a long time since anyone called me that."
With that, Old Lady Zhao let out a sinister, piercing laugh.
It sounded like a sharp steel needle scraping across a steel plate, utterly unbearable!
Beside her, the evil spirit was overjoyed at her reaction.
Looks like Old Lady Zhao is very pleased with this little girl!
Maybe once she's eaten the child, she'll put in a good word with the manager and get me a position inside the Amusement Park!
At that thought, the evil spirit hurriedly adopted a fawning expression and spoke like a groveling servant:
"Elder Zhao, I went to great lengths to save this one for you."
"Take your time enjoying her. Just call me if you need anything."
Seeing him fish for credit, Old Lady Zhao nodded slightly and said slowly:
"All right, Little Zhou. This old woman appreciates your favor."
It worked!
The evil spirit was instantly elated, smiling until his eyes narrowed into slits.
As a vengeful ghost, Old Lady Zhao held considerable status in the Amusement Park.
With just one word from her, his promotion would be guaranteed!
Old Lady Zhao paid no attention to the evil spirit Zhou's beaming face.
All her thoughts were on the little girl now.
At the thought of slowly savoring Tang Xiaoling's flesh and blood.
Her stomach, which had long since lost the ability to feel hunger, stirred with an appetite she hadn't felt in ages!
