Chapter Fifty-Eight: It's Coming

No way, since we have come, my master and I are okay, after all, I have experienced a lot, and I didn't show too much worry and fear about what the old man just said, but Chu Mengxi is different, after all, she is a woman, and she has to live in a room alone at night, think about it, you live alone in an ancient house, although the surrounding environment is bright, but when you sleep in the middle of the night, you suddenly hear a rattle outside the window, it is inevitable that you will think of the famous corpse in Xiangxi, or what you hear and see in the room, Can you not be afraid.

Sure enough, Chu Mengxi was originally in a happier mood, but after hearing me and my master discuss, her face gradually changed, and she said to us: "Uncle Tan, Lin Xuan, is it really that evil, I still have to live alone in a room at night, I.... I'm a little scared."

I laughed, directly took off the Yang Ming Jade, put it in front of Chu Mengxi, and said: "Don't be afraid, I'll live next door to you, you can hold this jade pendant first, it will be useful at critical moments, and we are just guessing, there may not be anything really going on, it's okay, I'm here with the master."

The master sat next to him, and when he saw that I gave the Yang Ming Jade to Chu Mengxi, he looked at me and smiled bitterly, and his eyes seemed to say: "You kid has a really big heart, you can take out the heirloom treasure casually."

But I understood what the master meant, shrugged my shoulders, and replied to the master with my eyes: "Mengxi is not an outsider, let alone give it to her, even if I give it to her, I don't feel distressed."

The master smiled bitterly again, looked at me and shook his head, and said: "Girl, don't put too much pressure on yourself, after all, you're here to travel, don't be afraid, with your Uncle Tan, okay, you two young people talk, I'm tired after driving for so long, go lie down for a while, remember to call me when you eat at night."

After saying that, the master yawned and walked out of the room.

We didn't care about the master, we went downstairs to find the old man and got two umbrellas, Chu Mengxi and I each had one, and when we arrived at the door, I said to Chu Mengxi: "Since you've come, it's a pity not to go shopping, let's go, go play."

Chu Mengxi also smiled and nodded, held up the umbrella and walked out with me, we wandered around the ancient city for a long time, the rain was still falling, and there was a thick fog in the distance, I looked at the time on my phone, it was almost evening, I was going to go back with Chu Mengxi, when I came back, we passed a bridge, Chu Mengxi had to let me take a picture of her, I didn't refuse, I picked up the phone is a click, click.

After taking the photo, Chu Mengxi walked back in a hurry, took the mobile phone and flipped through the photos, and said to me: "I can't see it, your photography skills are very good."

I also looked at the photo on my phone, in the photo, Chu Mengxi was holding an oil-paper umbrella, standing on the bridge and looking into the distance, like a fairy descending to earth, beautiful as a fairy, I smiled and said to Chu Mengxi: "It's so good-looking, like a fairy."

Chu Mengxi looked at me with a smile, and I continued: "Let's go, it's raining heavily, go back to eat, and the master doesn't know if he's up."

Chu Mengxi said yes, we held the umbrella and returned to the homestay, at this time it was about half past six, Chu Mengxi and I went upstairs, he went back to the room first, and I ran to the master's room, pushed open the door and saw that the master was still lying on the bed, I smiled evilly, quietly ran to the master's side, lifted the master's quilt hard, the master was woken up at once, sat up and looked around in a daze, and after seeing that it was me, he said impatiently: "Oh, what are you going to do, disturb my sleep in the morning, and now come again."

I smiled and said, "Master, it's time to eat, you've been sleeping for hours, didn't you tell me to remember to call you to eat?"

The master sighed, wiped his eyes and got out of bed, and said, "What about Miss Chu."

"Oh, it's next door, waiting for you to eat, and waiting for you to pay by the way."

The master yawned, sat on the edge of the bed and relaxed for a while, then stood up and said, "Let's go, there is food downstairs."

I nodded, went out and shouted Chu Mengxi, this girl changed a set of clothes and walked out, and went downstairs with us, this homestay is really good, everything is available, we went downstairs, just saw the old man, the master sat on a table next to him, and said: "Old man, what do you have to eat here."

The old man came over with a smile and handed us a menu, we took a look, ordered a few dishes, all of which are Xiangxi characteristics, the old man said good, walked to the back and ordered, after a while, a cook walked out with a few dishes, and we pulled out the chopsticks on the table.

After we were full of wine and food, we went upstairs, because of the boredom of idleness, took a deck of playing cards from the old man, the three of us gathered in a pile, began to fight the landlord, I washed the cards on the hands, and said: "The loser sticks a note on his face, and he is not allowed to regret it."

The master smiled slightly, rolled up his sleeves, the posture seemed to say who is afraid of whom, I also smiled, divided the card into three parts, I sorted out the cards in my hand, saw the master sitting opposite and laughed, looked at his cards and said: "I actually got such a good card, you two will prepare stickers, haha"!

I didn't care, and Chu Mengxi glanced at each other, I saw the same meaning as me in her eyes, I sorted out the cards, and directly pushed the landlord to the master and said, "I don't want the landlord."

"I don't want it either". Chu Mengxi echoed.

The master was stunned, looked at the two of us cautiously, took the landlord slowly, turned over the remaining three cards on the table, and laughed: "Haha, two two, one point, have you prepared the note?"

After speaking, the master smiled and drew the cards into his own card pile, I also laughed, the master first threw a three, I was stunned, and said: "Master, you are the landlord, the first card is only a three"?

"What do you know, hurry up, it's your turn". The master glanced at me and spoke.

I shrugged my shoulders and threw a two straight out, Chu Mengxi didn't want it, and the master didn't want it, I threw another pair out, and the cards in my hand gradually became fewer, the master stared at the cards on the table, counted, and said: "Your kid is so lucky, and there is such a long pair, but you can't go next."

After the master finished speaking, he threw a bomb on the table with a smile, I looked at it, it was actually four points, no wonder I didn't have a point, the master smiled evilly, staring at me and Chu Mengxi, but I didn't have a trace of panic, and directly threw a Wang Bang, bang, the master looked at the cards on the table, and then looked at the cards in his hand, his face changed, I smiled slightly, and threw out the remaining cards with the singular.

The master was completely stunned, looked at me, and said, "No, your kid card is just gone"?

I nodded, Chu Mengxi put the cards in his hand together and threw them on the table, and the master said to me with a disgraced face: "It doesn't count, this doesn't count, you didn't report the number, how do I know how many cards you still have."

I was stunned for a moment, and said: "Master, what does it mean to be nothing, I am willing to gamble and lose, you won't want to cheat."

In the end, the master really couldn't let go of this face, so he had to post a note by me and Chu Mengxi, and the master said unconvinced: "Come again, come again."

I shuffled the cards on the table again, and the three of us had a fight, almost until about eleven o'clock, when the master yawned, threw the cards in his hand on the table, and said, "No, no, I'm sleepy."

I looked at the master, at this time his face was already covered with notes, me and Chu Mengxi were no exception, there were notes on their faces, but Chu Mengxi was okay, after all, she was a girl, and the master and I didn't put too much on her face.

I nodded, sorted out the cards on the table, and after sending the master and Chu Mengxi out, I closed the door, glanced at the light rain around and outside, also yawned, turned off the light without washing my face, and lay on the bed.

........

In the middle of the night, I don't know what time period it was, I suddenly heard a scream coming, I was a shallow sleeper, after hearing this scream, I immediately sat up from the bed, listened carefully, it was actually Chu Mengxi's girl's voice, I rushed out of bed, didn't even wear shoes, opened the door and ran out, because I lived next door to Chu Mengxi, so I turned around and arrived at the door of her room, I pushed the door open, and shouted: "What's the matter, Mengxi, what's wrong"!

Chu Mengxi sat in the corner of the bed, and when she saw me standing at the door, she lifted the quilt and ran over, and threw herself into my arms, I was stunned, my hands were open, I didn't know what was going on, Chu Mengxi lay on my chest, my whole body trembled, I said in embarrassment: "Mengxi, it's okay, it's okay, I'm here, what's going on."

"Ahh Forest.... Lin Xuan, there is a ghost, I saw a ghost, a man, just lying on the head of the bed staring at me". Chu Mengxi said in horror.

"What's wrong, what's wrong, Chu girl." I just wanted to speak, but I heard the master's voice behind me, and said hurriedly.

But when the master saw Chu Mengxi in my arms, he was also stunned, looking at me as if asking me what was going on, I smiled bitterly, slowly helped Chu Mengxi up, and said, "It's okay, Mengxi, don't be afraid, the master and I are here."

But Chu Mengxi still got behind us in horror, poked his head out to look at the edge of the bed, and the master glanced at us at this time, and said, "What's wrong."

I patted Chu Mengxi's hand and said, "Mengxi said that I just saw a ghost, but I didn't feel anything, maybe when I came, the movement was too loud and alarmed the ghost."
