Chapter 269: Midnight Haunted House 56
The night fog passed through the window frames of the old building and sprinkled into the house like fine sand. The woman in red put down her umbrella, slowly turned around, and stood quietly in front of the bed looking at Xu Xinghe.
The wind blew, lifting the woman's long hair and the hem of her cheongsam. Under the blood-red moonlight, the peony embroidered on the hem of the woman's cheongsam became more and more vivid.
"Xu Lang." She called Xu Xinghe again, then waved for Xu Xinghe to come over.
However, Xu Xinghe stood still. He looked at the woman with a smile and asked her, "Is the person you are looking at Su Qingyun?"
"Yes, didn't Xu Lang call my name?"
"I did, but I was calling my beloved, wasn't it you?"
Su Qingyun stood close to the window. She couldn't see the scene in the room clearly, but she could see Xu Xinghe's back through the window glass.
What did Xu Xinghe say just now?
He called Su Qingyun his beloved, and asked if she was a female ghost?
Did he know something? The ghost girl wasn't called Su Qingyun at all. She just heard Xu Xinghe and Ye Jian call her Su Qingyun, so she made up a name for herself?
So, Xu Xinghe is testing the other party now?
The female ghost in red did not answer Xu Xinghe's question. She just stood there stupidly, looking at Xu Xinghe quietly.
The atmosphere is very strange.
Xu Xinghe seemed to want to break this weirdness. He asked the red-clothed ghost again, "Why don't you leave?"
Female ghost, "I'm waiting for Xu Lang. Xu Lang, didn't you say you would redeem me and take me away?"
"Did I say that, when?"
"Xu Lang, have you forgotten?" The red-clothed ghost began to move. She approached Xu Xinghe step by step, saying as she walked, "How could Xu Lang have forgotten? When we were together, didn't you say that once your theater made money, you would use it to find a man named Zhang to redeem me, and then we would leave here together and find a house in the countryside to live out our own world together?"
"Maybe, but I really forgot." Xu Xinghe took a step back.
He continued, "So don't wait any longer and leave here."
"Let me go?" The red-clothed female ghost began to laugh, her face becoming ferocious. "I've spent all my savings on your business, and now you just send me away with a simple "let me go"! Have you found another vixen?"
"I just think it's not worth it for you to wait like this. No matter what the reason is, your Xu Lang didn't come, but he didn't come after all. Waiting for someone who won't come is too stupid."
"No, he will come." The red-clothed ghost shook her head, but immediately she said, "Aren't you here? Why are you saying such things?"
"I'm not your Xu Lang. I'm just wearing his clothes." Xu Xinghe also questioned the red-clothed female ghost, "You've been waiting for him, how come you don't remember what he looks like?"
"What does he look like?" The red-clothed female ghost was even more confused. She looked at Xu Xinghe and then at herself. Finally, she took out the hairpin from her head, held it up and asked Xu Xinghe, "Did you kill him? You are..."
She seemed to have forgotten something and began to recall again.
While the female ghost was stunned, Su Qingyun and Ye Jian rushed into the house at the same time. Ye Jian snatched the hairpin from the female ghost's hand, and Su Qingyun controlled her with a peach wood sword.
The red-clothed female ghost was even more confused when she saw two people suddenly appear. "Who are you? Why did you come to my room?"
Ye Jian showed his work badge again, "We are employees of the haunted house cleaning company. Your house is now a haunted house, and someone has hired us to clean it up."
"Haunted house?" The female ghost took two steps back and shook her head. "No, no, no, how could my Hundred Flowers Garden be a haunted house? You're lying."
Su Qingyun felt something was wrong. This female ghost in red seemed to have lost her memory.
Are there still ghosts with amnesia in this world?
So Su Qingyun asked her, "Do you remember that your house was on fire?"
It would have been fine if the fire had not been mentioned. As soon as the fire was mentioned, the female ghost in red instantly went into a state of madness. She covered her head with her hands, silently chanting "fire, fire, fire" while backing away.
Finally she burst into laughter, and after laughing her expression suddenly changed as she looked at Su Ye, Xu and the other two ferociously.
"I want you to pay for your blood debt with blood." As she said this, she fell back and got directly into the bed.
The large carved bed in this room is the same as the one on the left, with the bed curtains lowered so you can't see inside the bed at all.
The female ghost crawled into the bed. Su Qingyun didn't dare to act rashly. She looked at Ye Jian.
Ye Jian pressed his eyebrows, perhaps because he felt a headache.
It's clearly a completed copy, but now they act like ghost hunters.
The most important thing is that these three people don’t know how to catch ghosts at all.
"Use the cinnabar ink cartridge." Behind him, Xu Xinghe took off his costume and took his backpack from Su Qingyun. He said that he had carefully read the instructions for using the cinnabar ink cartridge before coming.
"Pull the string from the cartridge and flick cinnabar onto the surface to create a barrier."
"A barrier that traps ghosts?"
"right."
Ye Jian helped Xu Xinghe hold the ink line, and then stretched it out in front of the bed. Su Qingyun went over, pinched the ink line and flicked it lightly, and a thin red line really appeared in front of the bed.
The three of them worked together to weave a barrier net in front of the bed. After doing this, Su Qingyun stood in front of the bed and used a peach wood sword to pry open the heavy bed curtains.
Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe were serving on both sides of the bed, each holding a slingshot.
Su Qingyun slowly lifted the bed curtain. The bed curtain was very heavy, as if it was made of accumulated sand. Su Qingyun seemed to have bumped into something while lifting it.
It is a copper bell, which hangs behind the gauze and makes a dull sound when touched lightly.
Su Qingyun suddenly felt her eyelids twitching and she felt sleepy.
At this time, another bell sounded, it was Ye Jian's hexagonal bell, and then Ye Jian jumped onto the bed and tore off all the bed curtains with his bare hands.
He was extremely strong. After tearing it off, he jumped back and dragged the bed several meters away.
He threw the bed sheet to the floor.
The three of them looked at the bed.
On the bed, there was a golden velvet quilt, and a woman wearing a red veil and wedding dress was sitting in the middle of the bed.
The three people exchanged glances, and finally Su Qingyun stepped forward. She used the peach wood sword in her hand to pick up the veil again.
The veil was lifted, but what appeared was not the face of a beautiful woman, but the face of the old woman.
The old woman was wearing heavy makeup at this time, which made her half-burned face even more terrifying.
Seeing her veil being lifted, she slowly opened her eyes, then looked at Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe, and asked grimly, "Who of you will marry me?"
