Torrential rain poured down from the sky, and the dense rain curtain made it impossible to see the ground two meters away. If it was a light rain, the rain at this moment would be like a bead curtain.
Qin Yuesheng rode his horse at full speed on the official road. Relying on the isolation of his internal force, his clothes remained as dry as before and were not affected by the rain at all.
But the horse under him was not in such a good condition. Its mane and tail were all wet, and water droplets flew everywhere when it swayed.
"This weather is really terrible." Qin Yuesheng said, looking at the sky.
Logically speaking, the range of rainfall is related to the dark clouds in the sky. As long as you can run out of the raining clouds, you can escape from the rain curtain. However, Qin Yuesheng has walked a mile or two, but still has not seen the rain curtain stop and lighten. It is obvious that he has not really reached the end.
"Oh, I hate rainy days the most."
…
"Junior sister, there is a house here."
In the heavy rain, several young men and women holding oil-paper umbrellas ran quickly to a large house on the hillside. They saw that the outer wall of the house was grayish white, and a plaque was hanging on the gate.
【Nameless Mansion】
"Wuming Mansion? What a strange name. Could it be that the owner of this house has the surname Wuming? Or maybe his name is just Wuming." A young woman holding an umbrella looked up at the plaque and said.
"Junior sister, don't say too much. If we make the owner of this house unhappy, we won't be able to shelter from the rain." The young man next to her said, and was about to walk forward and knock on the door.
There were five young men and women in this group, three women and two men. They were dressed elegantly and looked like disciples from some sect who were traveling abroad.
As the young man grabbed the door knocker and knocked several times, he said loudly, "I am a disciple of the Zuo Yue Sect in Jiangnan. I am passing by here and would like to ask the host to lend me and my fellow apprentices a place to shelter from the rain."
“…”
It was unusually quiet, with no sound coming from inside the house.
This person did not give up and shouted again immediately, but the result was still the same. This time, another young man standing next to him could not stand it anymore.
On a rainy day like this, the ground is wet and there is heavy rain. People are already in a bad mood, and a bad mood can easily make their temper become bad as well.
Without waiting for others to react, this person jumped out and kicked the gate of the house, creating a large hole in the door that was wide enough for one person to enter and exit.
Several door panels fell to the ground, making a loud noise.
"Junior Brother Zheng, you..." The young man was stunned. He didn't expect that his junior brother would be so violent and directly kick the other person's door.
"Brother, sheltering from the rain is the most important thing. I'll apologize to them and give them the silver later." Junior Brother Zheng smiled and immediately walked into the big hole that he had kicked out.
The rest of the people looked at each other, and finally followed him in.
No one wants to stay out in the rain any longer.
The house was unusually quiet. No matter how these people shouted, no one came out to greet or scold them, which made everyone wonder.
Is there no one living here?
You can see the gorgeous flowers in the flower beds in the courtyard, the neatly planted grass on the lawn, and the dust-free tables and chairs in the lobby. It's obvious that someone lives here, otherwise it wouldn't be so tidy.
"Would the master please show himself to us? We are not bad people."
The whole house was quite quiet, making people feel a little uneasy for a moment. Junior Brother Zheng said, "Senior Brother, I think these people are hiding. Why don't we look for them everywhere, or find the kitchen to get some food."
"Okay, but when you meet someone, be careful with your words and don't get into arguments with them."
"Don't worry, brother."
Soon, the group dispersed and began to search around the house.
However, they did not notice that the door that had been kicked in by Junior Brother Zheng suddenly shook slightly, and the wooden board that fell to the ground flew back to the empty space on the door, intact as before.
"ah!!!"
Suddenly, a scream was heard.
The others in the courtyard were startled when they heard the sound and immediately ran towards the direction where the sound came from.
"Junior Sister Zhou!"
"Junior Sister Zhou!"
When everyone arrived at the source of the sound, they saw their junior sister lying on the ground outside a house, trembling all over, with her arms around her head and her body curled up, as if she had just experienced something very scary.
"Junior Sister Zhou, are you okay?" Zhang Fan, the oldest senior brother among the group, reached out to help the fallen junior sister up and asked worriedly.
"Ghost, there is a ghost, there is a ghost in there." The junior sister pointed at the house and shouted in fear.
"Ghost?" Junior Brother Zheng drew the sword from his back and immediately walked towards the house.
"Junior Brother Zheng, you can't do that! Be careful of the danger." Zhang Fan said hurriedly.
But his junior brother Zheng Yi was a fearless fellow, so he was not willing to listen to his advice: "I have never seen a ghost in my life. If I can see one today, it will be a happy event.
They say people become ghosts after they die. If I'm killed by a ghost, wouldn't I become a ghost too? Why should I be afraid? If I can't beat you as a human, the worst that can happen is that I can fight you for three hundred rounds as a ghost."
After saying this, the man rushed directly into the house with the door ajar.
The room was dark, and more than ten coffins could be vaguely seen in the depths. Zheng Yi suddenly realized that his fellow apprentice sisters had always been timid, and they might have been frightened by the sight of these coffins, and didn't care whether he had really seen a ghost or not, and just kept talking nonsense.
"Hey, it's strange. Why are there so many coffins here? It's unlucky." Zheng Yi walked towards the coffins. He saw that there were yellow talismans and traces of ink lines on these coffins. It looked like they were not ordinary things.
