Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess 383 Mo Chou 21

In her previous life, while she was not the pride of her family for not being the strongest, she was at least one of the proficient junior members. At similar age, she was stronger than Fan Zheng, thanks to her background and the lack of technology and others that would distract practitioners from cultivation. 

She got her title of witch from having interest in herbology. In other words, that appellation 'witch,' was just a funny title her friends from the sect had given her for frequently digging around plants and sometimes unearthing worms and bugs which reminded her fellows of the ladies from the Miao ethnic group. The sect leader frequently called those Miao ladies, especially their female leader, a witch, and it got extended to Mo chou who happened to be sharing one of their common trademarks.

But while her brothers and sisters called Mo Chou that, she actually had a great relationship with them and received a lot of pointers from them. The girl grew up smoothly without much troubles and grew her abilities as well.

At the time of her death, that was at thirty years old, she could already be considered a master that could deal with ghosts at the level of Jiang Li, a rank below monks that could vanquish ghost kings.

Unfortunately, while Mo Chou had become a strong spirit huntress, with plenty of experience in exorcism, she was not good at dealing with real people. She was not stupid, true. Her parents and seniors often talked about things she should do when facing normal people and she committed them all to mind. But knowing humans could be terrible from the mouth of ghosts who died terrible deaths from the hands of their fellow humans was different from experiencing it firsthand.

Like a person would only know domestic violence was bad, but would not know the extent of the harm it could do to someone unless he goes through it.

Because of her naivety and lack of experience with the living, when Mo Chou fell from a cliff and ended up a captive of those villagers, her mind was paralyzed and she couldn't think of a way to escape.

In the end, she was violated by Zhao Guo. Then almost got passed on to another rough man. Her death would have become more miserable if not for the autistic guy who blocked that pig demon for her. He died though. And she who managed to run outside also died not long after from several arrows that punctured her abused body.

In this world, there were really all sorts of evil and darkness. While some lived a blessed life, there were others not having it good.

For Mo Chou, the past was really something very painful for her to remember.

But perhaps because she had always been unwilling to let go of it that she mysteriously gained a chance for rebirth. Her memories were even intact, with her last moments the most vivid of all. So even though she now had a rich and caring family and a beautiful future, she refused to move on and treat the previous life as a matter of the past.

Wasn't there an army of ghosts that always stayed around Zhao village? That was her curse! Her obsession!

Gu Mochou seemed to playing around and enjoying her second life but all this time she was actually waiting for the baleful spirits to break into the village and kill everyone there.

It would just a matter of time before the female leader there became a ghost queen, powerful enough to break that mysterious enchantment that repelled all entities with malicious intention.

Didn't those villagers desire for others to not know their evil deeds? She would respect that and let the dead erase them for her! They would not have to wait for the mortal law to punish them. The realm of the dead would be the one to deliver their retribution!

She would be the sole witness to enjoy their last moments. Zhao Guo would die from her hands after seeing how his little realm got reduced into a ghost village.

As for Zhao Bolin… The chance meeting with Zhan Rong was something never in her calculations.

Who would have thought there was still a trace of that foolish guy in this world? However, that little lady couldn't be his daughter, right? Especially since it had been thirty years since his death while the girl seemed to be around twenty years of age…

Given that girl's sensitivity with spirits that became apparent at the bathroom, was it a remnant of his spirit?

Gu Mochou couldn't help but affix her eyes on Zhan Rong.

However, the villainess had no idea that while she was momentarily lost in her thoughts, her target noticed that she was eyeing her.

'Weird. Why is she looking at me like that?'

Zhan Rong had been pretty sensitive to stares lately and had learned to differentiate the kind of people watching her. Some were admiring her poise and beauty, which she was used to since childhood. Some were just people she happened to have eye contact with. The rest from ghosts that somehow felt she could see them and unfortunately couldn't be repelled by her amulet.

That woman… When she casually glanced towards the escalator, she saw the one giving her an unsettling gaze was a living person. She had no clue about the reason, so the moment she recognized Gu Mochou as the one in the restroom, she crossed her out from people she should acquaint herself with. Especially now that the woman was tailing her!

This girl could have been possessed by that female spirit who called her a perv, no?

Not good! She must lose her!

Hastening her steps, she indignantly complained in her mind. "Damn. I can't believe this is happening to me again. That monk is really a liar! What good fortune? I'm now becoming a magnet for bad spirits!".

Zhan Rong's expression was not good. However, her hands and feet were fast. She walked passed the shops selling beautiful clothes and accessories and headed towards the bustling food court. She lightly glanced to her left, gritting her teeth upon seeing the other party was running towards her. She pulled up a long shawl and a pair of shades from her bag, then tied up her hair into a bun. The shawl temporarily concealed the color of her blouse.

Since she knew the little change would not confuse the other party for long, she hurriedly ran towards the exit, purposely colliding with people carrying bags and stuff, and only sighing in relief when she got inside a taxi.

As for her pursuer, around the time Zhan Rong changed her hairstyle and wrapped a red shawl over her upper body, Gu Mochou was indeed a bit confused when she couldn't find the long haired lady in a blue hanging blouse. But when she saw someone running, she instinctively followed.

Sadly, she was already late. Delayed by the other mall-goers near the entrance and exit, she could only watch dumbfounded as Zhan Rong disappeared from sight. When she recovered from her daze, Gu Mochou stomped her feet in irritation.

"That annoying b*tch! Why did she have to run from me? I'm not going to eat her! I only plan to check why I felt his presence on her!"

The girl had a belly fully of anger since she was used to things going her way. It was hard for her to accept she just lost her lead so she marched towards a security guard.

After messing with her hair, she began her performance.

"Sir! Sir! Please help me!!! S-someone stole a very important flash drive from me! Please, I really need your help to get it back! It's really important. W-we must hurry and check the CCTV while I still have an impression of the thief's appearance!"

The security guard looked at her tearful and distraught appearance and felt sympathetic to her. He hurriedly said, "Don't cry, miss. Please calm down and tell me what happened. I'll definitely help you retrieve what you lost. "

The girl choked on her sobs but knowing the gravity of the situation, she immediately gestured with her hands and explained, "S-Sir! I, I'm an intern of a company under Gu Corporation…. This… The USB, the USB my superior lent to me is stolen! It has several important files! I, I saw a long-haired lady in blue snatching it from my bag before running away and hailing a cab and… and I only realized it after remembering that I saw her in the restroom. I-I suspect she's been following me since then! So please! H-help me! I m-must get it back!"

The security guard felt distressed for the girl and forgot to question several suspicious points in her story, like why did she bring an important storage item in a crowded place like this…. And why an intern would have access to something that would warrant attention from thieves or company competitors. The tears from her pretty face were enough to make him judge he must do his best to help. And thus he nodded, "Alright, miss. Don't cry anymore. Since you said the thief has already left, all we can do is check the CCTVs, check the plate number of that taxi, and if possible, get a good look at the appearance of that thief. Let's hope we can find something."

Watching the man report something to his superiors using the walkie-talkie, the girl wiped the tears from her eyes that gleamed sharply for a second and softly replied, "Thank you."

Gu Mochou was not one to give up easily so she used her acting skills that could compete for Oscar's for her purpose.

A face would be all she would need to locate the other!

She followed the guard, unknowingly passing by a pair who were also looking in the direction where Zhan Rong disappeared.

It was not shown in the memories, but before the villainess transferred to the male lead's University, the leads and her also brushed shoulders like this, although their circumstances were different.

The girl who was wearing a man's dress shirt and pants tugged at the sleeves of the handsome boy next to her and asked, "Is that Ms. Zhan?"

The girl was Zhao Ai who came here with Fan Zheng to buy some clothes and daily necessities.

Fan Zheng tilted his head then laughingly replied, "I think we saw wrongly. That friend of mind is not one to compromise her looks and comfort if not absolutely needed. Also, I called her home and the housekeeper said she went back around 5 am. She should be asleep or at home."

"Is that so?"

Fan Zheng shook his head with a smile. "There's something more important for us to do. Come, let's quickly finish what we came here for."

Zhao Ai nodded, letting herself be pulled towards a clothing shop.
