The girl stepped on the stone steps that had been eroded by wind and rain, gritted her teeth and tightly grasped the bracelet given by Senior Brother Song.
All the valuables had been moved away, and the remaining furniture had been soaked by the rain and was in tatters.
When the girl stepped back.
My waist hit the wooden tables and chairs, which were shaky and seemed like they would collapse at any time.
She stood a little further away and observed carefully like her other senior sisters. There were dense layers of spider webs in the corner of the wall above her head.
Nothing was found.
Ruan Mian rubbed the tip of his nose and held back a sneeze, which made the corners of his eyes red.
Just then, she saw a little boy in patched clothes running barefoot into the inner room.
Didn't Senior Sister say that everyone in the Tian family had already moved away...
The people around were bending over to look for anything unusual, and no one noticed what was happening.
Ruan Mian approached hesitantly.
The dilapidated wooden door was closed, and she hesitated whether to push it open and see.
When the girl's palm was about to touch the door edge.
"I looked carefully in the backyard and didn't find anything."
It’s Senior Sister Xiyue who’s back.
She withdrew her finger and told the other person what she had seen.
"Are there children here?"
Many people are questioning and do not believe the girl's one-sided statement at all.
Xiyue frowned, "Junior Sister, the farmhouse has been abandoned for a long time. People nearby stay away from it. There is no way a child would be inside."
Most of the disciples here are female. Some of them felt frightened after hearing this and scolded Ruan Mian.
"I advise you not to talk nonsense. Are you the only one who saw it out of so many people? You're deliberately trying to mislead people and scare us!"
No matter how the girls explained, they didn't believe it.
Xiyue dissuaded him.
"Stop arguing. We are all fellow disciples. Don't let a small matter damage our friendship."
The simplest and most direct way is to go and see if it is true or not.
At this time, everyone who was still arguing quietly took a step back, obviously still a little scared.
Xiyue walked forward and pushed open the wooden door with a creak.
The room was filled with a damp and musty smell, and thick dust had accumulated because no one had cleaned it.
There wasn't much furniture inside, and it was empty. You could see the end at a glance and there was nothing there.
They were about to criticize Ruan Mian for talking nonsense, but were interrupted by Xiyue.
"Alright, maybe Junior Sister saw it wrongly, let's go back to the inn first."
Ruan Mian blinked. Was it an illusion?
Go back to the room and light the candle.
She held the listless Xiaoyuan in her palm and said, "You saw it just now, right? I didn't lie."
The little guy has been acting a little weird lately, as if he's been frightened.
Tell her truthfully, "I really didn't see it."
The girl just felt strange. Not only was Xiaoyuan there, but she also felt like someone was secretly watching her.
She originally wanted to meditate and practice all night, but without Bai Feng's guidance, she couldn't understand the complicated techniques written in the book at all, so she might as well sleep.
It's late at night.
The girl fell asleep on the bed exhausted, her long eyelashes tightly closed, lost in dreams.
As time passed, the flame of the candle on the table gradually flickered and finally went out suddenly.
The room was plunged into darkness, with only a faint moonlight shining through the window onto the bed.
A cold breath approached, Ruan Mian's feet felt cold, and the chill climbed up along his ankles.
So cold...
She felt something at the head of the bed in a daze, and squinted her eyes to look at it because she was so sleepy.
But she was horrified to find a ghost baby squatting at the head of her bed. Its shadow was pale and distorted, and its eyes were staring at her with evil light.
I don’t know how long I watched it.
Big beads of cold sweat appeared on Ruan Mian's forehead, rolled down and soaked her hair.
The girl's body began to tremble, shaking uncontrollably, as if a cold wind was blowing from deep within her heart.
She wanted to call for help, but her throat felt like it was being strangled and she couldn't make a sound.
thumping……
thumping……
thump…
My heartbeat is irregular and beating wildly!
The girl rubbed her eyes again, and when she opened them, the ghost was gone.
Silence returned to the small room, as if everything that had just happened was just a nightmare.
The moonlight reflected off the wooden floor inside the house, covering the room with a layer of cold frost and snow.
Xiaoyuan was awakened by her startle, and yawned sleepily on the girl's neck, asking in confusion.
"Why don't you get up instead of sleeping?"
Ruan Mian couldn't explain the strange thing he had just experienced, but he didn't dare to stay in the room anymore. He decided to go find Senior Sister Xiyue.
I opened the door and happened to meet Mu Feng.
The wooden walls of the inn are inlaid with exquisite carvings, and the delicate patterns appear particularly clear in the moonlight.
He was at the end of the corridor, wearing a black robe and had a tall figure.
He suddenly asked, "Are you scared?"
The girl didn't answer and lowered her head slightly.
But he easily saw through the girl's inner anxiety and raised an eyebrow.
"Do you need me to accompany you?"
Every time Ruan Mian was alone with him, she felt a sense of oppression that seeped into her heart.
"No need, Senior Brother Mufeng, I'll just go find Senior Sister Xiyue."
Rejected.
The man leaned against the wooden wall, the hilt of the sword gently pressing against his shoulder, quiet and silent, as if blending into the night.
"Um."
Without forcing himself, he walked past me. There was an incomprehensible emotion hidden in his eyes, and the hostility was fleeting, so fast that it seemed like an illusion.
Seeing him about to go out, the girl asked softly, "Where are you going?"
I thought I wouldn't get a reply.
The night wind gently blew Mu Feng's black hair and slightly blew his wide sleeves, making the man's tough brow bones sharp and handsome.
