System [I am in a horror dungeon]

Chapter 320 Looking Back

Liu Yuhe was woken up early the next morning. When she opened her eyes, everything around her had changed. She looked stupidly at the dilapidated houses around her. Where was this?

When she got up from the haystack, she found a girl lying next to her, her body covered with wounds and bruises. When she wanted to call her, her hand went through her body. Only then did Liu Yuhe realize that her body was translucent and her lower body had no legs or feet, just like what was written in the novel, like a ghost.

The girl looked to be about the same age as me. This seemed to be a storage room of someone in the village. Various farm tools were placed around it. The room was filled with a damp and moldy smell, and there were the sounds of chickens and ducks. Everything was so dreamy.

Liu Yuhe wanted to pinch herself to wake herself up because of the pain, but when she looked at her translucent arm, she had to think of other ways.

The girl next to him moved, opened her eyes, and turned around. Liu Yuhe then discovered that she was pregnant and was about five or six months pregnant.

She looked outside. Liu Yuhe was standing in front of her and looking in the direction she saw. It was the back mountain. What was she looking at there?

After a while, there was a sound of cursing outside. The girl on the ground slowly got up and walked to the door. The door was opened from the outside, and a man pushed her to work, cursing.

Liu Yuhe followed her and watched her cleaning, feeding the pigs, chickens and ducks, fetching water and cooking. Just after a short break, the man asked her to do this and that. She didn't even have time to drink a sip of water. When she ate, she only had a small bowl of food, which was not enough. No wonder she looked so thin and her belly was not very big.

As time passed, Liu Yuhe watched the girl repeating the same work day after day, serving the lazy man.

One night, the girl sat on the ground, holding her belly. A pool of water mixed with blood flowed out from under her. She was about to give birth.

Liu Yuhe also became anxious, but when the man heard the noise, he simply dragged her into the house and left her to fend for herself, completely disregarding her life or death.

Liu Yuhe stood aside, so angry that her teeth ached. She reached out her hand to hit him, but her fist went through his body and it was useless.

She turned and went back into the house, guarding the girl who was lying weakly on the straw mat and calling out in a low voice. She watched the girl holding her belly, biting her sleeve in her mouth, and silently exerting effort. Finally, a day later, she gave birth to a baby girl.

She wiped the blood and amniotic fluid off the baby's body with her clothes. She looked at her and smiled slightly, and the next moment she fainted.

Liu Yuhe leaned over and looked at the little baby. He felt it was so magical. The little body was soft and her cry was weak. It looked like she was not in good health. In such an environment, he didn't know if she could survive.

When the man heard no sound in the room, he took a look and found that the child had been born. When he saw that it was a girl, the look of disgust made Liu Yuhe furious.

He pointed at him and started talking like crazy, then watched her pick up the child with one hand and go out.

Liu Yuhe widened his eyes. No, what was he going to do?

She chased him out of the house, floating beside him and talking non-stop all the way, but in the end she was exhausted, and the other party couldn't hear her or do anything about it, which made her even angrier.

When I turned around and saw the scene in front of me, I looked at the river, then at the man, and a thought came to my mind: No way! Don't do that!

But the result was just as she expected, the newborn baby was thrown into the river.

The little baby felt the coolness all over her body and waved her little hands constantly, splashing a little water. When Liu Yuhe wanted to pick her up, he put his hands through her tiny body as he did before.

Liu Yuhe looked at the man walking away and the baby slowly sinking in front of her. She cried anxiously. What should she do? What should she do? What should she do?

What she didn't notice was that she was now a little more transparent.

The scene around me gradually changed. The leaves quickly turned yellow and fell off. The river water also gradually turned red, and finally became as red as blood.

Liu Yuhe felt as if he was covered in ice and snow. He was so cold that it became difficult for him to breathe. Why? How could this happen?

There seems to be water flowing in front of me. Is the water level rising?

She tried to wave her hands. What was going on? How did her hands become so small? A red mist filled her eyes, and a voice came to her ears, "You are going to die. You are going to die..."

Die, am I going to die? No, I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die…

"Want to live? I'll let you live, and you'll listen to me. Do you agree?"

Liu Yuhe didn't think too much about it, "I... agree."

Then, she felt something dragging her upwards, the coldness around her body gradually disappeared, and her breathing became smoother.

Liu Yuhe suddenly opened her eyes. She was lying by the river. Everything around her had returned to its original state. She looked around and saw a baby wrapped in a cradle by the river.

I heard footsteps behind me. It was the child's mother. When she saw the child being thrown by the river, she rushed over, hugged the child in her arms, and carefully touched her little face.

She's breathing, she's fine, great.

Although she didn't know why the child was wrapped in a swaddling cloth, nor how the child survived, she only knew that the child she had given birth to with great effort was not dead, but was still alive and well.

The girl took the child back home, and the man started scolding her as soon as he saw her. She didn't react at all and just ignored him.

The man was not satisfied with his scolding, so he reached out and started hitting her. The girl held the child in her arms to prevent her from getting hurt.

She named the child Xiao He, which means happy family. She never gave up hope of going home, and so did the aunt next door. They would often get together and talk about their family matters. This was one of the few free moments they had.

Later, her time became even busier. After giving birth to the child, she was driven into the utility room by her husband, where she ate and drank every day. She could only drink water and eat dry and hard steamed buns.

But every time she would put some rat poison in the man's food and watch his health deteriorate day by day.

Fortunately, the aunt next door would give her some rice porridge and food when her husband was not around, so that she could raise the little one.

Liu Yuhe watched Xiaohe grow up day by day. Her eyes and features looked more and more like her mother. She couldn't help but think how nice it would be if they and all the women in the village could go back.

Xiao He looked in the direction of Liu Yuhe with a smile, which made her doubt whether Xiao He could see her. But every time she wanted to confirm this idea, Xiao He went somewhere else and ignored her, making Liu Yuhe suspicious.
