Chapter 19: The Man in Red

The Xi family recently had a family restlessness.

The center of the matter is involving the head of the Xi family, Xi Lu.

It was seven days ago that Xi Lu suddenly found that he could always see hundreds of people in red at home. These red-clothed people have unclear faces, and even if they stand beside them, they seem to be separated by a layer of veil, making people unable to see clearly. They didn't make any moves, but they often appeared out of nowhere, and a dozen, or dozen, filled the entire courtyard without making any sound.

And every time he wanted to take a closer look, these red-clothed people suddenly disappeared, as if they had never appeared.

When he saw it for the first time, Xi Lu screamed in fright, attracting the servants around him. Xi Lu pointed to the red-clothed people outside the window, but the servant had a blank face, and he couldn't see anything except the flowers and trees in the courtyard.

Xi Lu was terrified, and called his wife and son, and confirmed in many ways that only he could see the red-clothed man in the courtyard.

At the beginning, Xi Lu comforted himself that he might be old and dazzled. But this kind of thing, once or twice can be said to be a coincidence, after three or four times, Xi Lu already had palpitations, and invited many famous doctors to see, and could only prescribe some drugs to nourish the mind.

But for Xi Lu, these drugs couldn't make him see things disappear at all. No matter how much you nourish your mind, you will be frightened by the red-clothed people in the courtyard again and again, but you still can't solve the actual problem.

After thinking about it, I always felt that this was a ghost and a god, and it could not be cured by medicinal stones.

After asking about the search, Xi Lu heard that Guo Pu was a guest in Xie An's mansion, so he hurriedly asked his son Xi Feng to invite him. Although his son didn't believe in ghosts and gods, he saw that his father couldn't sleep peacefully for days, so he had no choice but to fulfill his father's wish and invite Guo Pu at the poetry meeting. It's just that he didn't expect that before he could speak, Guo Pu had already seen that his father had a problem. Xi Feng couldn't help but be shocked, and he didn't dare to underestimate Guo Pu like before.

"Immortal Master Guo, please get in the car, the road may be bumpy at night, but fortunately, the journey is not far." Xi Feng personally greeted him at the house, which can be said to have given enough face, "I have already told Taishou that the curfew specially opened for Guo Xianshi is also open." Dare to ask Immortal Master Guo," Xi Feng hesitated, "Is this matter possible to be finished tonight?" ”

"If this immortal master's estimate is good, the matter in the house is not big, but it is just an errand for an hour." Guo Pu held the tail in his hand and smiled with a fairy wind.

Xie Xiaoman pretended to be a servant and followed behind Guo Pu, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes at this time.

"The Immortal Master is indeed a powerful person! Without further ado, ask the immortal master to pedal the car! ”

Guo Pu got into the car freely, Xie Xiaoman played the role of a servant, but he couldn't follow in a grand manner, looked around, and found that he could only follow the others on foot......

Pouting, Xie Xiaoman had no choice but to endure it, and followed the ox cart step by step.

The ox cart did not go fast, and when he arrived at the gate of Defang, Xi Feng personally negotiated a few words with the soldiers guarding the door, and the gate was opened.

In ancient China, each fang was like an independent small city, separated by city walls on all sides, and the middle fang gate was connected. After dark, there is a curfew, ordinary people are not allowed to go to the streets, and if you want to walk across the lane, you need to have the ability to fly the eaves and walk the wall.

Xie Xiaoman has grown so big, and he has never visited Huiji City at night. At this time, I only felt that it was the dead of night, and occasionally there was the sound of dogs barking and talking in the yard, and they were all crushed by the wheels in the creak of the ox cart beside me.

The night was not bright, and the moon was covered with a faint veil.

The lights next to the ox cart were also in a trance, swaying with the body, like a ghost fire beating in the dark.

Although the six servants of the Xi family were followed around, no one spoke at this time, only footsteps and wheezing sounded in their ears. Occasionally, the ox cart drove through the uneven streets, and the creak made a sore sound, and the sound spread with the night, and it sounded a little hairy.

Somehow, there was obviously a night breeze blowing, but Xie Xiaoman felt a little suffocated. An inexplicable feeling enveloped her, something she had never felt before, a whole new sense.

It was a sensation that was nothing, just distant, as if something had connected to a part of her body. This feeling made her clearly perceive that there was something over there.

As he got closer and closer to Xifu, Xie Xiaoman's feeling became stronger and stronger.

It's false to say that you're not afraid, for people who experience this feeling for the first time, it's like an unknown world suddenly opening a door, but you don't know what's in that door, and whether it will suddenly stretch out a hand.

After swallowing a mouthful of foam, Xie Xiaoman found that his steps were slowly sluggish.

Looking up at the other servants of the Xi Mansion, they were still the same as before, obviously not feeling anything.

The car stopped, Guo Pu walked down, he looked up at the top of Xifu, looked at the faint circle of light that only he could see, and shook his head with a smile.

"But what's wrong?" Seeing this, Xi Feng asked nervously.

Guo Pu smiled lightly: "Look at it like this, it's been at least seven days, right?" ”

There was no beginning or end to what he said, but Xi Feng understood, nodded hurriedly, and even had goosebumps all over his body: "What Immortal Master Guo said is good!" Knowing this, we should have invited the immortal master to come over earlier! ”

"It's okay, this monster doesn't hurt people's hearts, otherwise...... Say something that Lang Jun doesn't like to hear, your house has long been restless. ”

"Yes! Be! Please also ask Immortal Master Guo to cast a spell! Xi Feng had already fully believed it at this time, and hurriedly bowed down and asked Guo Pu to go inside.

Guo Pu was not polite, Shi Shiran walked in, led by Xi Feng, and entered the third one by one along the main gate of the mansion, only to be led by Xi Feng to a Ming Hall.

"Someone has already gone to invite my father, ask Guo Xianshi to stay for a while. Dare to ask Immortal Master Guo, do you need anything? Xi Feng asked respectfully.

Guo Pu smiled: "Is there any wine?" ”

Xi Feng was stunned when he heard this, so he hurriedly ordered: "Quickly bring the wine, ask for Qiongchun hidden in the cellar." ”

"Lang Jun is so polite!" Guo Pu said this, but his heart was already happy.

Before the wine was brought up, Xi Lu had already walked out unsteadily under the support of people.

After all, where the other party was, Guo Pu hurriedly got up and asked with a smile: "Gong Xi, how many more people have the man in red recently?" ”

The affairs of the man in red, except for his henchmen and family, have never reached the ears of others. The Guo Immortal Master in front of him didn't even need to ask, he could know what he was seeing!

Xi Lu's original suspicions were swept away, and he hurriedly stepped forward to grab Guo Pu's hand, and pleaded: "Immortal Master Guo save me!" ”

At the place near the door of the Ming Hall, Xie Xiaoman was looking at the courtyard outside the door at this time, and he saw a somewhat empty figure.
