Seeing that no one responded, Tang Xiaoxiao became even more panicked. She thought about it and decided to come out of the room first.
Because she was too scared, her sharp eyesight disappeared and she accidentally bumped into the coffin.
The coffin that seemed insignificant just now has now become something full of horror.
She kept apologizing, "Grandpa Tang, it's all because of us being ignorant. I promise I won't bother you again. Please don't be angry with me."
As she walked, she saw a bright light rising in front of her. She walked towards the light firmly, but did not notice that she was getting farther and farther away from the door.
Tang Jiaxin, who was squatting under the window, couldn't help but stand up when she heard her friend about to cry.
She was just about to tell Tang Xiaoxiao the location of the three of them when she was frightened by the scene in the room.
She subconsciously reached out and tried to pull up her friend who was squatting on the ground.
Xu Nuo and the other man were getting impatient with her grabbing their hands, and their tone was a little unhappy: "Jiaxin, we just came out for a while, what are you touching around?
I understand. You wouldn't have planned with Tang Xiaoxiao to scare us back."
Tang Jiayi nodded in agreement: "I guess as soon as the two of us stand up, Xiaoxiao will crawl out from under the window and scare us."
Seeing that the two of them were talking non-stop, Tang Jiaxin was afraid of startling the "person" in the room, so she covered their mouths with her hands and shook her head frantically.
The fear in her eyes and the tears that were about to fall finally aroused the two men's vigilance.
Xu Nuo was also afraid that something really might happen, so he took Tang Jiayi's hand and stood up.
After seeing what happened in the house, the two of them were stunned.
I saw a bright light in the room which was dark just now, and the candle which had been extinguished just now was burning again.
Tang Xiaoxiao, who had been looking for them just now, stood dignifiedly in front of the table, her mouth opening and closing but no sound came out, and a strange smile on her face.
Following her gaze, I could see an old man sitting opposite her.
The old man nodded gently at Tang Xiaoxiao, and Tang Xiaoxiao sat down with a happy face, even pretending to pick up the bowl to eat.
The three of them looked at each other, rubbed their eyes vigorously, and confirmed that there was indeed no food on the table and the old man sitting opposite her was still there.
Seeing that Tang Jiaxin couldn't help but reach out to call her, Xu Nuo pushed her down forcefully.
Tang Jiaxin lowered her voice and said, "Xu Nuo, didn't you see that Xiao Xiao was bewitched by the ghost? As her friends, how could we just stand by and watch?"
Xu Nuo grabbed her hand and explained to her: "The ghost inside is your fourth grandfather. He will definitely not hurt Xiaoxiao."
"But why does he want to confuse Xiaoxiao?"
"I don't know about this, but you have to trust your fourth grandfather. He will definitely not do anything bad to Xiaoxiao.
We'll just wait here, and as soon as the lights in the house go out, we'll rush in to avoid disturbing them."
Seeing Xu Nuo's confident look, Tang Jiaxin chose to believe her.
The three of them leaned against the window and watched intently what was happening in the house through the cracks in the wall.
After about four or five minutes, the sound of a stool falling was heard in the room, and the fire in the room went out.
As soon as the fire went out, the three of them quickly rushed into the room, and Xu Nuo found the flashlight he had hidden behind the door.
But the scene in the house broke down the three people's psychological defenses.
Tang Jiaxin rushed over and grabbed Xu Nuo's clothes: "I wanted to come in just now, but you insisted on holding me back. Now look, Xiaoxiao is gone. How am I going to explain this to her family?"
Xu Nuo couldn't believe it and searched the whole house with a flashlight. After she searched every corner of the house, she had to accept that Tang Xiaoxiao had disappeared out of thin air.
"That's impossible. The room is so small, and we've been guarding the door the entire time. Even if there really was a ghost trying to harm her, it couldn't possibly make a living person disappear right in front of us."
Tang Jiayi, who was standing next to her, was already frightened out of her wits. She didn't bother to hide from her parents that she had secretly used her pocket money to buy snacks. She shouted from inside the house, "Xiaoxiao! Where have you been?"
"Xiaoxiao, come out quickly. We shouldn't have joked with you. We know we were wrong."
Seeing that there was no response for a long time, she finally couldn't help crying.
Xu Nuo was annoyed by her crying: "Tang Jiayi, the most important thing now is to find Xiaoxiao. Can you please stop crying here?"
Tang Jiayi thought that everything that happened today was caused by her, and she couldn't help but complain: "Xu Nuo, you are definitely not afraid, you are not from our village.
At worst, you can never come to grandma's house again, but what should we do? My family lives in the village. If something happens to her, how can we meet again? "
Xu Nuo also listened to her complaints and felt very indignant in his heart: "Are you saying that everything that happened today is my fault?"
"It's definitely your fault. You were the one who came up with the Four Corners Game, and you were the one who organized the scaring of Xiaoxiao. If it weren't for your blind advice, would Xiaoxiao have gotten into trouble?"
Xu Nuo originally felt guilty about this matter, and after being blamed repeatedly, she couldn't help but explode: "I said it, but didn't you agree? Now you are pushing everything onto me.
I tell you, you can’t escape responsibility for this.”
Tang Jiayi: “…”
"That's enough." Tang Jiaxin stopped the two from arguing any further: "The most important thing now is to find Xiaoxiao. We should ask her parents for help."
As soon as they walked out of the door, they saw Tang Jiaxin's father standing outside.
Seeing the three people come out, Tang's father breathed a sigh of relief: "I heard someone talking in the old house, and I thought something happened. It's okay if it's you."
"No." He suddenly thought of something and pulled Tang Jiaxin over: "Did you steal the key from my drawer?"
Tang Jiaxin nodded silently.
"You little girl, don't do this again next time. Even though your fourth grandmother gave us the house, we can't just barge into other people's homes."
"Dad, I understand."
Seeing that Tang Jiaxin had not dared to talk about Tang Xiaoxiao, Xu Nuo mustered up the courage to speak: "Uncle, something unexpected happened in the house just now. Tang Xiaoxiao disappeared right under our noses."
"What, missing!
Tang Jiaxin, please explain the whole story to me clearly."
Seeing that her father was angry, Tang Jiaxin quickly told him everything that had just happened.
After learning the whole story, Tang's father looked at his daughter angrily: "You guys are really brave. You dare to touch anything."
While he was lecturing the three people, he couldn't help but feel scared in his heart. If Tang Xiaoxiao really got into trouble on his territory, he would never be able to clear himself of suspicion in his lifetime.
Thinking of this, he rode his bike to the village party secretary's house.
Xu Nuo dodged the cane in his mother's hand again: "After the village party secretary found out, he used the village loudspeaker to broadcast a missing person notice.
Everyone in the village went out and searched the entire area, but still couldn't find Tang Xiaoxiao's whereabouts."
