Chapter 6: Miki Kuroki
The black wood of the ghost, as its name suggests, is pitch black and has the ability to resist ghosts. It is rumored that Guan Jingtian, the young son of the Guan family, was frightened when he was young, and the Guan family loved his son, and invited a monk to surprise him, and also spent a high price to buy the ghost black wood that is said to be able to suppress ghosts and drive away evil spirits from a collector.
This is the only piece of black wood that Ruoxin knows about that is still circulating in the world. Although she didn't know whether it was true or not, she remembered what Bai Ruoyin told her, and Ruoxin still decided to visit the Guan family.
At night, Ruoxin climbed over the wall into the Guanfu and came to Jinhua Garden according to the route in her memory.
When the time passed, it was dark and silent in the Guanfu. Although the scenery of Jinhua Garden where Guan Jingtian lives is beautiful, it is far away from the main house of the old lady of the Guan family and the west courtyard where the next person lives, so it is a little lonely and clear at night, Ruoxin gently pushed the door in, and did not hear the slightest movement in the inner room, it seems that Guan Jingtian has also fallen asleep.
Since the ghost Kuroki is to let Guan Jingtian avoid evil, then he must be here in Guan Jingtian.
I remember that in order to avoid King Yingning, she pushed Guan Jingtian into the bath bucket, and when she took off his clothes, she didn't find the ghost black wood on him, so he should have put it somewhere in the house.
Along the wall, Ruoxin gently groped for the row of wooden cabinets where ancient jade playthings were placed, in order not to alarm Guan Jingtian, Ruoxin relaxed her movements and searched through the little light that penetrated the white screen outside the window. I opened the red sandalwood box in several hidden places, but I didn't find anything.
While the search was underway, I heard a frightened voice behind me, "You...... What are you doing? ”
Ruoxin turned around, and through the lower edge of the cloak and hood, she saw a pair of eyes that were also shining in the dark, it was Guan Jingtian who got up at some point.
Coincidentally, Guan Jingtian saw Bai Ruoyin the day before yesterday, and he was happy and a little melancholy in his heart, so he couldn't sleep at night. Finally, when he was vaguely sleepy, Guan Jingtian suddenly felt an inexplicable coolness rushing into the house, and suddenly lowered the temperature of the room that was only heated by the stove before going to bed, he raised the futon and wrapped himself tighter, but he felt that something was wrong, and his consciousness suddenly woke up.
He sat up carefully with the quilt in his arms, leaned out of the bed slightly, pricked up his ears to listen to the movement in the outroom, and faintly heard a few subtle sounds, and did not think of anything else for a while, only thinking that it was a mouse sneaking into the house. Putting on a coat, he got up and quietly went outside to take a look.
By the hazy moonlight, he could vaguely see a gray cloak in front of the wooden cabinet against the wall of the outhouse, turning the things on the wooden cabinet, and it was the ghostly gray man he saw on the street in the evening. He was indeed able to see unclean things since he was a child, but he couldn't be sure if the person in front of him was it, and the answer he couldn't be sure of was that he felt scared like he had never felt before.
A chill rose from the soles of his feet, and Guan Jingtian stared at the gray-clothed man who looked back at him, and his feet couldn't stop trembling. Even at night, the man still wore the hat of his cloak on his head, and there was an indescribable strangeness.
Despite being afraid, Guan Jingtian still bothered his courage and said, "You, you are sneaky, what are you going to do?" ”
Seeing that the man in gray did not reply, his heart was a little colder, and the silence made people even more frightened, he took out a piece of jet-black wood tied with a red rope from his underwear with trembling hands, and stammered at the man in gray; "Ben...... Young Master Ben has this...... But the sky is not afraid...... The earth is not afraid, you ...... Don't come here. ”
After returning from the street that day, he suddenly remembered the strange gray-clothed man he saw, and he had a creepy feeling, so he quickly found the fast black wood that he had worn since he was a child, and found it again and put it on, but he didn't think that he would meet the guy he didn't want to meet the last thing he wanted to meet, whether it was a person or a ghost.
Seeing Guan Jingtian pull out the black wood of his clothes, Ruoxin's eyes lit up.
It turned out that here, Ruoxin walked towards Guan Jingtian and stretched out her hand to the black wood he was holding.
Guan Jingtian was already so frightened that his body stiffened, and after stumbling to the door, he softened his body, and when he saw the man in gray walking towards him, he couldn't move an inch. At the same time, he also saw the dead spirit hovering around the man in gray, and seemed to raise his hideous and strange face, slowly leaning towards him along the hand of the man in gray, with a dead white face with the breath of death.
Ruoxin reached out and touched the black wood that Guan Jingtian wore around his neck, carefully identifying it, but was slightly disappointed. The black wood in his hand is exactly the same as the black wood of the ghost drawn in the forbidden book of the Bu family, but it has no form, but it is not after all.
Although this result had been expected, it was still somewhat disappointing, Ruoxin sighed slightly, raised her eyes to look at Guan Jingtian, who was tightly closed, her face was pale, and she was trembling like a cicada, and her heart was happy.
The eldest young master also said that even if she became a ghost, he would not be afraid, but now, she has not become a ghost, and he already looks like he is about to faint.
Facing Guan Dashao, he always couldn't help but feel teasing, Ruoxin smiled silently, and reached out to gently caress his face.
Feeling that there was no warmth in his face, the words of the dead body flashed in his heart, Guan Jingtian couldn't move his hands and feet, but finally couldn't help shouting, "Ghost, ghost, come on, come and save me......"
Before he shouted, Ruoxin had already left the house.
Guan Jingtian didn't like too many people to live in Jinhua Garden, so he only left Mo Mo in the room next to Guan Jingtian's bedroom at night.
Hearing Guan Jingtian's shout, Mo Mo woke up, and before he had time to put on his shoes and clothes, he hurriedly opened the door and ran to Guan Jingtian's house.
"Young Master, what's wrong? What happened? Mo Mo looked at Guan Jingtian, half of his body was outside the threshold, and half of his body was still in the room and slumped at the door, he was startled, and hurriedly ran forward, supported Guan Jingtian, and shouted.
Hearing the familiar voice, Guan Jingtian's tense heart was slightly relieved, and his hands and feet, which were originally as stiff as stones, began to feel conscious.
"Desert-" Guan Jingtian shouted excitedly, stretched out his hand and hugged Desert tightly, as if grasping a life-saving straw and not letting go, he said in the direction where the man in gray left: "There are ghosts, it's so scary." ”
Suddenly being hugged, Mo Mo was taken aback, and saw that Guan Jingtian was not anything unusual except for some fright, so he breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, he realized that it was a little unseemly to be held in the arms of the young master in his only middle coat, but looking at Guan Jingtian's frightened appearance, he felt some pity in his heart, so he just patted his back gently and comfortingly, and looked in the direction he was pointing.
The man in the gray cloak glanced back at the corner, although Mo Mo was also a little frightened in his heart, he still stared at it, the bright moonlight shone on the person's body, but there was no light, but, when the man in gray turned his head to look at it, the faint light reflected in her eyes, Mo Mo saw a pair of familiar gentle eyes.
White Girl?
Mo Mo's eyes widened violently.
