Chapter 125 The Mysterious Woman in White
A series of clear marks were clearly visible on the bluestone floor.
In an instant, you could hear a pin drop in the air.
Who could have been to a vacant house that is known to be haunted?
[What the hell? What's going on?]
[Didn't the village chief say this house is haunted? No one dares to come here?]
Is that person still so brave? So adventurous?
【Or is it not a human at all? 】
…
Could it be a zombie?
Or maybe a monster?
Thoughts popped up one after another, and everyone shuddered.
A cold chill ran up from the soles of my feet.
But they saw Jiang Xu had already followed those traces and walked out, and everyone hurried to follow.
Those traces also looked like footprints, but upon closer inspection, they were not so similar.
I walked all the way along the corridor to the hall, and he disappeared again.
The hall was just like the previous room, with almost no furnishings and a thick layer of dust covering everything.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew through the hall.
Everyone shuddered instantly and wrapped their clothes tightly.
"Master Jiang, this place... is not right." Zhao Xin's teeth were chattering and his voice was terrified.
"Something is seriously wrong!"
Jiang Xu: "Don't be nervous, it's broad daylight now, there's no ghost."
"and……"
She raised her eyebrows, a meaningful look appearing on her cold face: "With my amulet here, the evil spirit in this house can't hurt you."
[So there really is yin energy and ghosts...]
[Ahhh, how could Master Jiang say such a horrible thing in such a gentle tone!]
[The person above is new, she’s always like this!!!]
【Holding myself tightly while trembling! 】
[I find Master Jiang's expression quite intriguing. I bet you a dime that there must be some kind of story behind this house!]
[Wow, how did Master Jiang become a riddle man? At least I was mentally prepared beforehand...]
[No, what secret is hidden in this house?]
But after hearing her calm tone, everyone felt relieved.
"Master Jiang, what should we do next?" Lu Jiawen asked.
Jiang Xu turned around and glanced at the deep and secluded ancient house behind him: "Come back tonight."
"ah?"
Everyone was petrified.
Still coming?
A hint of deep meaning flashed in Jiang Xu's eyes: "Catching ghosts must be done at night."
Everyone:……
Everyone turned around again and left the house.
When they came out, it was already dark and several villagers including Chen Jianshan were preparing dinner for them.
When the guests saw this, they all came forward to help.
"Master Jiang, is there really a ghost in that house?" Chen Jianshan also watched the live broadcast, and his face turned slightly pale at this time.
Jiang Xu nodded his chin lightly, and Chen Jianshan quickly asked, "Do you know who that female ghost is?"
Female ghost?
The moment the words fell, everyone stopped moving.
Jiang Yu looked up at him and said, "We haven't seen any ghosts in the house. How do you know it's a female ghost?"
His eyes were sharp, like a blade. Chen Jianshan's face turned pale. Under his intimidating gaze, he hurriedly explained:
"No, it's not my business. Many people in our village have seen that female ghost!"
"It's just that I haven't seen what she looks like, and I don't know why she came to the village to cause trouble, so I asked out of curiosity."
Chen Jianshan and his friends thought they hadn't done anything harmful, so how come a female ghost appeared in their village?
Zhao Xin also remembered what the village chief said about the villagers encountering ghosts.
If it was an evil ghost, there would have been deaths in the village long ago.
But the female ghost was just sneaking around to scare the villagers, and didn't kill anyone. I'm afraid she was wronged.
Everyone helped with cooking. Zhao Xin had nothing to do, so he said something to Jiang Xu and wanted to go find the villagers to ask about the situation.
Jiang Xu glanced at him and nodded.
Seeing that she didn't stop her, Zhao Xin felt more relieved.
The village chief said that a house with a red roof not far away had seen the female ghost, so just walk east.
Zhao Xin, the curious Tang Yue, and Lu Jiawen walked out together.
The village was very quiet. Not long after I walked out, a drizzle began to fall from the sky and mist rose.
Zhao Xin originally thought that he would reach his destination by walking all the way to the end, but unexpectedly, he came to a fork in the road halfway. Two small roads continued to extend, and the red house he was looking for could not be seen on either side.
The three of them paused.
"Which way should we go?" Tang Yue frowned.
"How about we go back and ask again?" Lu Jiawen said.
Just then, a thin woman suddenly appeared behind them.
She looked young, with a cold expression, her face lowered, her complexion pale and haggard, and she was only wearing a white robe.
The thin corners of the clothes were gently lifted by the wind.
"Hello, may I ask where the Liu family in the red house in this village lives?" Zhao Xin walked up to her and asked in a low voice.
Hearing this, the woman slowly raised her head, without saying a word, but staring at him with a pair of empty eyes.
Zhao Xin felt a sudden chill in his heart and was about to back out when the woman raised her hand, pointed to the left, and turned away.
Tang Yue felt something was strange and subconsciously reached out to hold her and ask her more questions, but he only touched her fingertips.
It's cold.
"Why……"
When he looked up again, the woman had disappeared in the mist.
The three of them looked at each other and thought that this woman was a little strange.
At this time, another middle-aged man came over. Zhao Xin suppressed his doubts and walked forward to ask for directions.
"The red house? That's my home."
"You are here to ask about that matter, right? The village chief told me about it. Please follow me."
The middle-aged man led the way in front, and it was indeed the road on the left.
Tang Yue frowned and exchanged a puzzled look with Lu Jiawen beside her.
When they arrived at the Liu family's house, Old Mrs. Liu was already waiting there. She was very excited to see them.
"I told you there's a ghost in this village! No one believed me!"
"Old lady, can you tell us more about it?"
"That day, Old Huang's wife suddenly came to me and said her dog had given birth to four puppies. She asked if I wanted them. We already had one. At first, I didn't want them, but Old Huang's wife insisted..."
It looked like the old lady was about to start from the story of Pangu creating the world. Zhao Xin put down her teacup, embarrassed to interrupt her, and asked directly:
"Old lady, you said you saw a ghost. What happened?"
The old lady thought about it and said something that made people's backs chill.
"That day, I came back from getting the puppy. When we were at a fork in the road, a female ghost suddenly appeared. I didn't react at first and was about to call out to her, but in the blink of an eye, she disappeared, as if she had never existed!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the air became dead silent.
Zhao Xin and the other two turned pale, and a chill ran down their spines.
Tang Yue swallowed hard, her voice trembling, "That female ghost had her hair loose and was wearing a white dress?"
"right."
"He doesn't look big, but his skin is pale?"
"That's right."
"Bang--"
The teacup in Zhao Xin's hand banged heavily on the table.
