Chapter 126: Soul-Calming Network



I was shocked. I just asked you to scare them, why did you have to be so cruel?

The three nannies didn't notice Ge Pulan's sudden advance at first. After all, Ge Pulan was a ghost, and ordinary people couldn't see ghosts under normal circumstances. Only when a ghost intentionally appeared before a person would they notice its presence. At this moment, Ge Pulan was clearly trying to reveal his body to them, thus achieving a terrifying and frightening level.

I watched the three nannies tremble all over. They looked at each other for a while, and it seemed that they were frightened by the cold wind. They kept rubbing their hands. Then, Ge Pulan suddenly appeared behind them and patted the three of them on the shoulders gently.

The three nannies subconsciously turned their heads to look. I didn’t see what expressions they had on their faces at that time, but I can imagine that it must have been very exciting!

Because soon, the three nannies screamed suddenly, and two of them fainted. The old nanny sat down on the ground, her body trembling and squirming backwards, saying tremblingly: "Don't kill me... Don't kill me..."

Ge Pulan had a ferocious look on her face and pressed on step by step: "Tell me everything you know about Ning Changfeng, otherwise..." She picked up the two nannies who had fainted on the ground and strangled their necks, using actions to threaten the old nanny. She was really cruel!

The old nanny was already terrified, and said with a pale face: "I don't know... I really don't know anything about the master... What do you want me to say... Wuuwuwu..."

Ge Pulan was stunned for a moment, then looked up at me, seemingly unsure of what to ask. I walked over and asked, "How did Ning Changfeng get back to Ningjiazhuang that night?"

The old nanny turned her head to look at me, and then saw Ning Xue looking at her seriously. She seemed to understand something in an instant, and hurried to Ning Xue's side, crying, "...Miss, please save me!"

Ning Xue remained unmoved and said, "I won't interfere until I know the truth."

The old nanny must have been heartbroken when she heard this. In a place like this, Ning Xue is her only support. Now that even Ning Xue said so, what else can she do?

Ge Pulan roared, "Are you going to tell me or not?"

The old nanny was so frightened that she sat down on the ground, covering her face and crying. "I said! ... That night, the master was sent to the back door of Ningjiazhuang by a young woman. The three of us were coming back from the kitchen making a midnight snack when we passed by the back door and happened to see the master talking to the young woman. I think he was thanking her for sending him back or something."

I frowned and asked, "What does that woman look like?"

The old nanny frowned and said, "It was too dim at the time, and the woman was in the dark, so I didn't see her clearly. I only heard the master call her "You'er" and ask, "Why didn't you kill that kid at the Thousand People's Tomb?" and so on."

I was stunned. Xiaoyou? A thousand-person grave?

Su Xiaoniu said meaningfully, "It's her."

I nodded slightly. The young woman the old nanny was talking about seemed to be the ghostly figure Mei Mingyou. But in my memory, Mei Mingyou and Ning Changfeng were supposed to have a hostile relationship, right? Back at the Thousand People's Cemetery, when the name Ning Changfeng was mentioned, Mei Mingyou's expression and tone were not very good. From then on, it was clear that Mei Mingyou and Ning Changfeng were definitely not friends. But now, after hearing what the old nanny said, the relationship between Mei Mingyou and Ning Changfeng became questionable.

Moreover, it was Mei Mingyou who sent him back to Ningjiazhuang, so why did Ning Changfeng hide it? What was the relationship between them?

The old nanny later said that the three nannies had been discovered and were originally going to be killed by Mei Mingyou to silence them, but Ning Changfeng stopped them and issued a warning to them: not to tell anyone about the affair between Ning Changfeng and Mei Mingyou, or they would be killed. This is why we returned to Ningjiazhuang that day and saw Ning Changfeng sitting in the living room drinking tea, safe and sound. He then called the three nannies over and told a bunch of lies to fool us.

So far, the truth seems to have surfaced, but it has made people even more confused. I thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.

It seems that unless Ning Changfeng says it himself, there is really nothing we can do about this matter.

Three days later, in the early morning, it suddenly started to drizzle.

The gloomy weather makes it almost hard to breathe.

During this period, Ge Pulan stayed at the memorial tablet in the ancestral temple of Ningjiazhuang. It was obviously the best thing to recuperate in such a memorial tablet worshipped by family members. It also brought a few days of brief peace to Ningjiazhuang.

This morning, I secretly ran to the ancestral temple under a small umbrella to look for Ge Pulan. It was drizzling outside, and dark clouds were gathering in from the distance, converging over Ningjiazhuang, as if foreshadowing something.

I didn't think much of it until I arrived at the ancestral hall and met Ge Pulan. The top row of the ancestral hall held the ancestral tablets of Ge Pulan and her husband. The next row held the ancestral tablets of Ge Puxiong and his wife. The third row had more, six or seven. They were Ge Puxiong's children, his daughters-in-law, his sons-in-law, and even Ning Changfeng's wife. It seemed Ning Changfeng had quite a few siblings. How many children did Ge Puxiong father? It seemed like, aside from Ning Changfeng, the others all died young.

But before I could say a few words, I suddenly heard heavy footsteps outside. I hurriedly lifted the blanket on the spirit table and crawled under the table.

Soon, someone walked in and paused in front of the memorial table, probably burning incense. A moment later, they heard the person say, "Ruyin, Dad, Mom, Grandma, Grandpa... Don't blame me for being so heartless. For the future happiness of our Ning Family Village's descendants, and especially for Ah Xue, I have no choice but to do this!"
