He only then began yelping while clutching his hand, yet still watched in disbelief as Hao Yunlai leaped out from under the covers—or rather, like a Devil clawing his way up from the Eighteen Levels of Hell!
And there was more... Standing beside him were his mother, who had died giving birth to him; his second brother, who had choked to death; his eldest brother, who had died from holding his urine; his third sister, who had drowned in a manure pit; his father, crushed to death by a cow... They were all there. They had returned, staring viciously at Hao San'er!
Yelping, Hao San'er scuttled back and collapsed to the ground in terror. They had all returned; the whole family had come back together!
