In her previous life, Qi Ling, as the ancestral master of the Xuanmen sect, died to save the world. Upon opening her eyes, she found herself transmigrated!
The original host, to save her fath...
Qi Ling's expression remained unchanged as she continued, "Can you be more specific?"
Deng Xiu looked around like a thief for a while before he said cautiously, "I suspect my dad has encountered something dirty."
Qi Ling didn't say anything, waiting for him to continue.
Deng Xiu thought for a moment, organized his words, and then continued, "Just two days ago, I accidentally passed by his yard. His gate was locked, but I could hear his laughter and the voices of children from inside the house."
"I didn't think anything was wrong at the time because I was often away for work and rarely came home, so I didn't pay much attention. I just thought he was talking on the phone with someone, so I took my things and left."
"But…"
"My nanny called me not long ago and said they were going to resign."
"I'm very confused because my nannies are all elderly people who have worked in my family for several years. It's impossible for them to suddenly leave at the same time."
"They spoke in an anxious tone, their voices trembling, and I felt very scared. After I asked them many times, they finally told me the reason."
Having said this, he paused and couldn't help but frowning.
【Speak quickly】
[Quick, why did they resign? ]
"Yes, yes, yes. Why are you so afraid? I'm so curious. Could it be that they killed your father and are afraid of being caught, so they resigned?"
The above person's train of thought is truly admirable. If he had really killed someone, he would have already run away, not resigned. Use your brain!
After a long pause, he continued in a complicated tone, "They say they hear my father's excited laughter and strangers chatting in his room every day, but no one has ever been to my house, and he hasn't come out on his own initiative in the past two days."
"They were worried that my father had an accident or starved to death, so they opened the door and went in to check, but they could only hear sounds coming from the walls. They searched the entire house but couldn't find my father."
"They were completely frightened. They thought my dad had encountered a ghost and was trapped by it. They were afraid that they would be in danger too, so they all wanted to leave."
"I was shocked when I heard it, and I rushed home from out of town and went to his house. I found that it was just as they said. There was no one in the house, but there were sounds coming from it."
"I initially suspected it was a recording, but I couldn't find anything to record it. Not only that, but apple cores and other things appeared out of nowhere in the house."
At this point, he couldn't help but sigh: "Master Qi, I don't know what's going on. I suspect my father has encountered an evil spirit, so I came to you. I hope you can help me. I'm really worried that something bad will happen to him!"
[Hiss! This is a bit scary when you think about it.]
Are they trapped inside the wall? Or are they being pulled into a second dimension?
My curiosity is peaking. This is just too weird, isn't it? What's going on?
Qi Ling was also quite curious. She couldn't help but sit up straight. "Oh? There's such a strange thing? Go to your father's yard now. I want to see what's going on."
Deng Xiu nodded continuously: "Okay, okay, okay"
After saying that, he ran to the door of his father's room without caring about his image.
As soon as he reached the door, he carefully placed his phone against the outside.
He whispered, "Master Qi, listen..."
Just as he said, there was an old man's cheerful laughter and the voice of another young child from inside, but because they were outside the house, they were vague.
"Xiao Hu, you're not playing well today... Why do you keep losing?"
"Haha, that's because you're awesome, Grandpa! I can't compare to you."
"Hahaha, you only know how to coax an old man like me. You are so nice. Unlike my brat, he is very busy with work every day and rarely comes back to accompany me."
When he said this, the old man suddenly became sad and his tone was complicated.
The boy named Xiao Hu kept comforting him: "Grandpa Deng, it's okay. If he doesn't accompany you, I will. Can you tell me a story? I love listening to your stories."
His words successfully helped the old man escape from his sadness, and he excitedly began to recount his heroic deeds during his years in the army.
Qi Ling and the viewers in the live broadcast room heard it.
[This is too amazing, this can't be a recording, right?]
[Yes, yes, yes, push the door open quickly and let Master Qi take a look.]
[I'm really curious, is it possible that he was imprisoned by a monster?]
After listening for a while, Deng Xiu saw that everyone was very curious, so he pushed open the door.
The room was decorated simply and desertedly, with a rustic shelf filled with antique vases, wine, etc., a bed, a hanging chair, and a chess table.
Various paintings and calligraphy are hung on the walls.
The painting shows mountains, water, various animals, rockery and the like.
The further into the house you go, the clearer the sounds you hear become.
Just as Deng Xiu said, the sound came through the wall, but because the room was empty, there was an echo and it was difficult to tell which wall the sound came from.
[No wonder they want to resign. If it were me, I would be afraid too.]
[It’s amazing that Approaching Science was able to film ten episodes.]
[Yes, yes, there is an echo, so scary]
Qi Ling's eyes were fixed on one of the paintings. The painting was very simple, a nine-tailed fox with purple eyes, which looked magical and charming.
Qi Ling couldn't help but curl her lips. She looked at Deng Xiu, who was staring at her eagerly, and said, "Point your phone at the fox portrait from before."
Deng Xiu did as he was told: "Okay, is there something wrong with this wall? Is my dad inside the wall?"
He couldn't help but lift up the portrait, but it was not what he imagined, and the wall was not empty.
He was confused and puzzled.
The people in the live broadcast room were much more observant than him, and they noticed the fox's eyes.
[Hiss, why are this fox's eyes so lively? They seem real.]
[Yes, yes, yes. Listen carefully. It seems like the sound is coming from this painting.]
Now that you mention it, I think I've realized it too. It seems like this painting is the real problem.
[Could it be that this painting has become a spirit? Was his father actually sucked into the painting?]
Qi Ling nodded: "Yes, there is indeed something wrong with this painting. Your father is in the painting. There must have been a fox demon living there. After the fox left, it left behind a remnant soul. The one talking to your father now must be that remnant soul."
"What? There really is a fox demon in this world? My dad was trapped in a painting by him!"
Deng Xiu was shocked. Although it was just a remnant soul, it was enough to shock him.
After a brief shock, he began to worry. It was said that fox spirits would eat human souls and bewitch people. Wouldn't his father be in danger?
A thin layer of sweat instantly broke out on his forehead. "Then...then Master Qi, what should we do?"
He was really afraid that his father would die like this, and he hadn't even done his best to fulfill his filial duty to his father!
