The old ladies who originally wanted to go out to call back the soul of the kids didn't dare to move around and instead ran back to the mountain cave, shouting as they ran, "Ghost fire! There's ghost fire!"
The people inside the cave exploded at the news, all got up, and held their children tightly, crying without regard to age.
Yi Meng was initially flustered, but soon realized something was off.
Even though she wasn't great at chemistry in school, she knew that what was called ghost fire was actually a chemical reaction of phosphorus or something in human bones, and had nothing to do with ghosts.
Could it be from the bones of the animals they ate tonight?
Thinking it over, she found it unlikely.
The time was too short, it shouldn't be enough to cause a chemical reaction!
Yi Meng couldn't quite fathom the specifics, but was concerned about her husband outside and wanted to take a look.
