Chapter 22 Master, am I beautiful?
Shen Wangshu said in a relaxed tone: “It’s just a joke, don’t be nervous.”
Gu Lingyun's heart was pounding. He cupped his hands around his chest and whispered, "Sister-in-law, it's late at night. Can you please not let me see that thing again? It's... very scary."
Shen Wangshu drove the car: “What is it?”
"It's... it's..." Gu Lingyun hammered the car door like a little girl, "Is that it?"
Shen Wangshu wanted to tease him: "Which one is it?"
Gu Lingyun gave up: "Sister-in-law, I'm scared."
"Um."
Last time at the Gu family, that is, at Gu Qingyan’s territory, his luck was so strong that it could withstand all bad things.
It was like a strong protective shield was placed on that territory, so Shen Wangshu dared to suffer even a little bit of injury.
Not now, Shen Wangshu cannot get hurt.
The car drove out of the city and the lights on the roadside gradually dimmed.
Only the car lights shone on the winding road, which was surrounded by trees.
Gu Lingyun looked at Shen Wangshu from time to time, fearing that in the blink of an eye, the driver would become a ghost and he would enter another terrifying place.
Shen Wangshu said, "Calm down, don't think too much. Those things like to feed on fear. You are simply providing them with a delicious meal."
Gu Lingyun touched his face and forced a smile that was uglier than crying: "Sister-in-law, how about I hire a retired special forces soldier to accompany you next time?"
Shen Wangshu chuckled twice and said nothing.
There must be a reason why Gu Lingyun was asked to come, since he and Gu Qingyan are brothers.
Gu Qingyan has such strong luck, so Gu Lingyun is naturally not bad either.
The car became increasingly bumpy, the smooth road was left behind, and the cries of animals could be heard outside.
Gu Lingyun just glanced out the car window and didn't dare to look again, for fear that he would see something that he shouldn't see.
The road gradually became smaller and the vegetation passed by the car window.
Even though he couldn't be swept away, Gu Lingyun would still subconsciously dodge.
His heart was pounding. The excitement was much stronger than that brought by racing, and it made his scalp tingle.
He turned his head to look at Shen Wangshu, but saw a strange short-haired boy, which scared Gu Lingyun so much that he screamed on the spot.
Only Shen Wangshu’s voice was heard from the young man driving the car.
"Quiet."
Gu Lingyun: "You, you, you."
"What do you mean by 'I'?" Shen Wangshu touched his forehead. "A wig? I've never seen one before?"
Gu Lingyun was about to cry: "When did you get the wig? How come I didn't notice? Besides, weren't you driving the whole time?"
Then Gu Lingyun saw a comb appear out of thin air and comb Shen Wangshu’s wig.
Gu Lingyun's mouth twitched and he covered his eyes in silence.
Shen Wangshu said: “Don’t scare him.”
He didn’t know if it was Gu Lingyun’s illusion, but he seemed to hear giggling sounds.
The car stopped.
"arrive."
Gu Lingyun followed Shen Wangshu out of the car. Shen Wangshu didn't look like a girl at all now. With short hair and a men's jacket, she looked exactly like a handsome young man from the south.
The car lights illuminated the entrance to the village.
There were traces of search and rescue team activities here during the day.
However, sixteen years after the fire was contained, vegetation had covered the broken tiles and the towering trees blocked the moonlight, making it seem even more eerie.
Gu Lingyun followed Shen Wangshu closely and asked cautiously, "Sister-in-law, why can't we come during the day?"
Shen Wangshu walked into the village: "What you see during the day is different from what you see at night."
It is said that the entire village was burned to death inside.
It stands to reason that there must be some obsessive remnant souls, but Shen Wangshu looked around and didn't find any.
Tao Ke, who was following her, rubbed his arms with both hands and said, "It's so cold."
Ghosts cannot feel temperature.
Shen Wangshu asked, “What kind of cold method?”
Tao Ke replied: "It's like being alive and soaking in ice water in winter."
Gu Lingyun knew that Shen Wangshu was not talking to him, so he did not respond. Instead, he used the flashlight to look left and right, fearing that something would suddenly pop up.
He even pulled Shen Wangshu’s arm out of fear.
Two people and one soul walked inside.
Another car stopped at the entrance of the village.
A man and a woman got out of the car.
The man had white hair and a full beard, and he looked very steady.
The woman had long hair, wore a cheongsam, and had a graceful figure. She also lifted her hair and lowered her voice: "Master, am I beautiful?"
The man didn't answer, but simply shone his flashlight on the other car's license plate.
After seeing the license plate number, the man frowned.
The woman, wearing a cheongsam, took big strides, squatted down in an indecent manner, and even touched the license plate to see if it was a sticker.
Then he shouted in surprise: "Hey, Master, why is your car here?"
The man didn't answer, but said in a calm voice: "Let's go."
His legs have not yet fully recovered, but he has recovered much better than the other members who went into space with him at the same time.
Following the new footprints, the two followed.
Shen Wangshu paused, the majestic aura could be felt even from a distance of several hundred meters.
She glanced at Gu Lingyun and said, "From now on, when you see me like this, just call me Xuan Yue."
Gu Lingyun listened to the pure boy's voice, then nodded blankly and whispered: "Sister-in-law, you are so strong."
"polite."
The story about Jia Xiaoyu and Xuan Yue on the Internet was so incredible that Gu Lingyun's nervous heart suddenly calmed down.
Yes, my sister-in-law is so strong, she will definitely protect him.
The road was overgrown with weeds, and the search team had trampled it down quite a bit, making it easier for Shen Wangshu to walk.
Shen Wangshu walked all the way without stopping until she reached an open space, then she walked towards the broken tiles inside.
This was an ancestral hall before it burned down.
But now it is overgrown with weeds and the entire ancestral hall is covered with green plants.
And the most footprints are left in the open space of the ancestral hall.
It seemed that the search party stayed here the longest.
Tao Ke tried to float inside, but was suddenly bounced back by something invisible.
In just a moment, it seemed as if hundreds of painful cries were heard, making Shen Wangshu's ears hurt.
She frowned, took a step forward, and tore open the invisible barrier. What appeared before her eyes was no longer the broken tiles covered by green plants, but another kind of scenery.
However, in Gu Lingyun's eyes, it was another matter.
He watched Shen Wangshu take a few steps forward, and then he disappeared from the spot.
There were no lights around, and it was dead silent.
The cold air suddenly rushed from the soles of my feet to the top of my head, giving me goose bumps all over my body. My throat felt like it was blocked and I couldn't make a sound.
Then a hand suddenly rested on Gu Lingyun's shoulder.
At that moment, Gu Lingyun's scalp went numb and his mind was full of "save me, save me, save me".
