Tang Ying was the first to agree, "Okay, Yuan Qiao is right. I don't even know what to do when I get here. I always have to find the mission card first!"
Wen Jinyu scoffed, "Didn't Uncle Xu tell us not to go to the East Garden because it's locked? Who knows what kind of place it is."
Gu Yuanqiao raised an eyebrow, "What? Are you scared?"
"Who's scared?"
Wen Jinyu sneered, "Just go, who's afraid of who!"
The cold moon hangs in the sky, and the cold wind blows by.
On a dark night, a group of people huddled together and walked forward in the darkness.
"This house is quite big. The road from the West Garden to the East Garden is so long."
Gu Yuanqiao frowned. He had the only flashlight in his hand, and the battery was probably low, so the light it emitted was dim.
"This is the East Garden."
They came to the outside of a yard. The wooden door that had been covered in dust for a long time was obviously in disrepair. There was a large gap between the two halves of the door caused by something.
"This door looks like it can be opened with just a few kicks, so why are there so many locks on it?"
Gu Yuanqiao was very brave. He stepped onto the stairs and shone the flashlight. He saw several layers of chains wrapped around the door.
"What's that on it?"
Gu Shaoyun pointed at the dusty paper-like object on the door.
"An ancient talisman."
Wen Xi stood behind them and told them lightly.
"Talisman? Is this the same talisman you used to sell for a thousand yuan a piece?"
Gu Shaoyun retracted her fingers and took two steps back.
"What talisman? Is it just this piece of paper? The Wen family's sister wants to sell it for a thousand yuan? So expensive? Isn't this just robbery?"
When Tang Ying heard this, her eyes widened and she said in disbelief.
[Yeah, what's going on? A talisman that costs a thousand yuan? Who would buy it? The price is almost catching up with the talismans sold by the Xuanmen family. Besides, Wen Jinyu's sister looks like she's still studying. How can she sell it at such a high price?]
[Isn't this a scam? ]
[You're crazy! You haven't seen our Sister Wen's abilities yet. Don't be shocked when the situation arises! Have you heard about the disappearance of the supernatural anchor Zhang Xianren? He was saved from danger this time entirely thanks to Sister Wen's rescue. Just this morning, he recounted the incident on his livestream, bursting into tears of gratitude towards Sister Wen!]
[I heard about Zhang Xianren's disappearance during the live broadcast. Was it Wen Jinyu's sister who saved him? Is that true?]
"This talisman has been around for too long. It's no longer effective. Besides, my talisman is much more powerful than this one."
Wen Xi spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Tang Ying laughed out loud, "Sister Wen, you sound so serious. Could it be that you can actually catch ghosts? Are you kidding me? How could ghosts appear in this place?"
A cold wind blows.
Tang Ying felt a chill and leaned slightly to the side, hugging her arms.
She accidentally caught a glimpse of a dark shadow flashing past behind the door. Her whole body froze, her pupils suddenly shrank, and her eyes were filled with fear!
“Ahhhh!”
Tang Ying was so scared that she held her head and quickly walked down the stairs.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Yuanqiao asked her with a frown.
Tang Ying turned her back and pointed at the door with a trembling finger, "Inside, someone floated past. I was scared to death."
"Anyone?"
Gu Yuanqiao leaned against the door and looked through the crack, but saw nothing.
Suddenly, it was as if candles were lit in all the rooms in the yard, and the flames shone on the windows, forming a... huge shadow!
Gu Yuanqiao's scalp tingled and he stepped back silently.
Wen Jinyu wondered, "What's going on? Is there really someone in there? Then why put so many locks on the door? Besides, if it's a person, why would they be afraid? Is it Uncle Xu in there?"
Gu Yuanqiao exhaled, "I don't know who it is. There's a light inside, and there's a shadow by the window. But it's so strange. It's not light from the lamp, but candlelight. Who could light so many candles at once?"
Tang Ying's eyes turned red as she listened, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Could there really be a ghost?"
Tang Yun had a few drinks and was getting tipsy. "How is that possible? Sister, don't you always disbelieve in ghosts and gods? Don't let your imagination run wild. Didn't Mr. Gu say it? It must be arranged by the production team. Who knows, they're probably still laughing at us in the room!"
Gu Yuanqiao's expression also became much more normal. "Yes, Brother Tang is right. It must be like this. It's just that we can't open this lock. Let's wait until we find the key next time and then go in."
“Okay, okay!”
The others didn't want to stay here any longer, and they all fled for their lives, completely unaware of the shadow slowly moving inside the house...
Back in the main building, everyone had lost interest in looking for task cards and went back to their rooms to rest.
"Sister Tang Ying!"
Wen Xi called out to Tang Ying who was about to enter the room.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Tang Ying looked at her blankly.
Wen Xi smiled at her, a sly glint in his amber pupils. "I just wanted to answer what you said before. Yes, I can see ghosts!"
See a ghost?
Tang Ying was startled, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water over her.
Wen Xi didn't care about her expression and went back to his room happily to sleep.
"ah!"
Tang Ying's short scream of shock and anger was heard from outside the door, followed by the loud sound of the door closing.
Wen Xi had a good night's sleep.
It's dawn!
“Ahhhhhh!”
A series of screams woke everyone up.
Wen Xi opened her eyes drowsily and heard hurried footsteps in the corridor.
She yawned, slowly opened the door and looked out.
Wen Yuexin and the others gathered at the doors of rooms 201 and 202 with grim expressions. The two doors, which were originally locked, were now open.
Wen Jinyu was still wearing his black pajamas, and sleepiness was still evident on his handsome face.
"What's going on? Why are you making such a fuss so early in the morning?"
Lu Xiangyu and Wen Yuexin pointed at 201 and 202 with grim expressions.
"Brother Yu, I woke up this morning and looked for my sister, but she wasn't in her room. I looked around and found that the door to Room 201 was not closed. It turned out that she had gone inside to sleep."
"My uncle is in room 202, too."
Wen Jinyu and Wen Xi looked at each other and walked over together.
Rooms 201 and 202 were only separated by a wall. Standing at the door, one could see the two people lying on two beds, still sleeping with their eyes closed.
Gu Yuanqiao scratched his hair. "We are making such a loud noise, how can they still sleep?"
Wen Xi pursed her lips and walked into Room 201 first.
Lu Xiangyu also hurried in and shouted, "Sister, wake up, what's going on? Tell me quickly, why did you go to room 201?"
But no matter how Lu Xiangyu called her, Lu Yijun still kept her eyes closed and remained in a deep sleep.
