Chapter 372: A cold sweat broke out
Zhuang Siyan felt that coming to Lu Yuan's house was a mistake, except that his silver was more attractive, this person was really a headache.
She and Qingfeng didn't stop in the courtyard of his house for long, and walked directly out of the gate, trying to find out if there were anyone else in the village.
But both of them stepped out of their feet, and they both stopped there.
"No, there is a problem with this lander." Zhuang Siyan said.
Qingfeng also nodded: "Yes, their family is so big, why didn't we even find a subordinate when we went in, he was alone back and forth, and there was no one to serve tea, it's too strange, right?" ”
Zhuang Siyan nodded: "Go, go back." ”
As soon as they turned around, they saw Qing Ran also come out, and he was happy again: "He agreed, let's catch ghosts, and he will give seven hundred taels of silver." ”
Zhuang Siyan and Qingfeng glanced at each other and didn't say anything when they looked at him.
Qing Ran looked behind him, and for some reason, he suddenly woke up from the excitement of talking about business: "Sir, it's not quite right." ”
The three of them didn't speak, they came out of the Lu Mansion and stood on the dark village road at the foot of the mountain, without saying a word for a long time.
Zhuang Siyan could almost imagine that if they went back to Lu Yuanwai, why would there be no one at home, he would definitely tell them that the mountain was haunted, and the people under him had run away, and he was worried that his family would be harmed, so he also sent them away.
As for himself, it was, of course, for the fruit trees in the mountains.
But Zhuang Siyan had already reacted, something was wrong with this person.
So now they can't believe what he says, and they have to find other people in the village as soon as possible and ask what is going on here.
There are still some families in the village, but now it is dark, and the doors of every house are closed, no matter how they knock on the door, no one opens it, and when they knock urgently, there is a cry from inside.
Zhuang Siyan calmed down at this time, and she walked to the mountain outside the village.
Find a high piece of land and look down on the whole village from there.
The whole village was dark, and I don't know if the remaining houses had turned off the lights, or if the windows and doors had been covered so tightly that not even a little light came out.
And the still chickens and dogs don't hear it, only the sound of the wind blows through the mountains and forests to the trees in the village, and the leaves can be seen swaying in the dark.
"If someone hadn't deliberately made trouble, or they had deliberately scared themselves, something must have happened in this village, and it was something that no one wanted to say."
Zhuang Siyan said.
When Qing Ran and Qing Feng were thinking about whether to answer, she changed the topic, and the person also turned back: "It seems that we can only go steal fruits to eat tonight and sleep on the stones outside." ”
It's ridiculous to say that when they encounter such a large village, they can't even find a place to stay.
It's not surprising that several people are used to being outside, and they are used to this kind of environment.
In the dark, I picked some fruits in the fruit grove halfway up the mountainside, sat on the stones I had found temporarily, and discussed the next thing while eating.
According to Qing Ran's meaning, after eating, he immediately sneaked back to Lu Yuanwai's house to see what he was doing?
Such a big, such a nice yard, he was alone in it, and at night, in a haunted mountain village, I didn't believe that he wasn't afraid.
Zhuang Siyan looked at it, walked over the dark roof under the mountain, and said softly: "It's okay to go, but he must also guard against us." ”
Qing Ran answered: "What if you prevent it, he doesn't know martial arts, can he still put me down?" If you two don't go in, I'll go in and see it alone and come out. ”
Zhuang Siyan shook his head and said, "No, I went in with Qingfeng, and there was someone to answer." ”
Erqing was a little surprised: "Don't be so careful, he doesn't know martial arts, even if he wants to do it to us, it's not so easy." ”
"Be careful, listen to me, I'll wait for you outside the gate, for an hour, no matter what you see, give me out."
The two people glanced at each other, and suddenly felt that they were not going to a farmhouse, but to the Longtan Tiger's Den.
However, Zhuang Siyan has always been resourceful, and it is always better to listen to her.
So a few people hurriedly ate the fruit in their hands, and then they went down from the middle of the mountain.
The night is deep, the village is dead, walking in the village feels as if there is no one around, and occasionally hearing a little movement makes people even more frightened.
Lu Yuanwai's home was near the northeast of the village, and when they got there, the gate was also closed, and there was no light inside.
Zhuang Siyan instructed them: "Be careful, one hour is limited. ”
Qingfeng looked around and said, "I'd better stay outside, I don't feel safe." ”
Zhuang Siyan waved his hand at him and pointed to the wall, meaning to let them go in quickly.
The courtyard wall is not too high, and it is easy to climb over the wall.
After they entered, Zhuang Siyan was not idle, and began to walk around the courtyard wall alone.
Lu Yuanwai's house is really not small, not to mention the foot of the mountain, it is so difficult to find a flat place, even in the flat courtyard, like Luo and Cheng, there are few such large courtyards.
Moreover, there are many trees planted in the yard, and from the outside of the courtyard wall, you can see that those branches are sticking out, and many of them are over the courtyard wall, and even hanging farther.
Zhuang Siyan followed the root of the wall on one side, and when she walked almost half a circle, she heard footsteps behind her.
She didn't turn around when she heard someone follow, as most people do.
It's not that I'm afraid of the legendary fire on my shoulder, but when I travel at night, and in the mountains, I'm likely to encounter anything, such as wild beasts and bad guys.
Often when you don't look back, he will follow you, and once you turn back, he just let his neck out, and let the pair kill him.
After Zhuang Siyan crossed over to the Dasheng Dynasty, he was just running around outside, so he still had research on these things.
At this moment, she clearly heard that there was a follower behind her, but she didn't know anything and continued to walk forward.
But when she reached the corner of the courtyard wall, her steps instantly accelerated, and she turned around in two steps, and before the other party could react, one stood sideways against the wall, and her face had already turned.
What she didn't expect was that the man was also very smart, and he didn't continue to follow, and his footsteps stopped on the other side of the wall.
The two sides were deadlocked for a few minutes, Zhuang Siyan did not go any further, and he did not catch up again.
Time passed minute by minute, and there was no trace of wind in the silence around them.
Zhuang Siyan held the dagger in his hand and kept careful attention to the corner place.
Suddenly, she noticed that something was not right, how could she feel as if there was a shadow on her head?
She almost wanted to look up, but her instinct made her not do it, but crouched down the wall very quickly, and with a roll, the person was already away from the wall, a few meters away.
Just as she turned away, a stone fell from the courtyard wall above her head.
It was two feet long and a foot wide, and when it fell to the ground, it broke in half, and it also smashed up countless dusts.
And in that place, there was no half of a figure at this time.
Zhuang Siyan was really worried about Qingran and Qingfeng at this time.
This is a courtyard, and it is clearly a machine house.
What is the origin of the lander who lives inside? Why do you want to do it to their strangers? There is also a haunting.
Just a few moments, in the eyes of ordinary people, it is not like a haunting.
Only people like Zhuang Siyan who have gone through various things can see at a glance that they are not ghosts at all, but people are making trouble.
She didn't dare to slip through the wall again, but ran to the gate as quickly as she came.
As she walked around the corner, she turned her head and looked there, and there was really nothing.
But according to Zhuang Siyan's experience, it is likely that the other party really followed her just now, and the light skills are good.
Just as she turned around, the man had realized that she might be waiting around the corner, so he went straight to the wall and used another method.
I was really scared out of a cold sweat.
She was running fast at this time, but her steps were very light, her whole body was lifted up, and she had an inexplicable sense of urgency in her heart, hoping that Qingran and Qingfeng would come out quickly.
When he returned to the gate, there was nothing there, and Zhuang Siyan was even more anxious.
She walked around, gritted her teeth one last time, and simply reached out and knocked on the door.
After knocking for a long time, Lu Yuanwai's voice came from inside, weak, and asked very carefully: "Who?" ”
"The ghost hunter who came at night saw two little ghosts enter your courtyard just now, so chase them over and take a look, is it convenient for Lu Yuanwai to open the door?"
In this case, it is inconvenient to open the door.
Lu Yuanwai held a lantern in one hand and pulled the bolt of the gate with the other, and his face was pale: "Did you really see it coming in?" ”
When he spoke, it seemed that the ghost was following behind him, and he was so frightened that he wanted to hide behind Zhuang Siyan.
Zhuang Siyan rushed straight in and stuffed him with a wooden stick that he picked up casually: "Ward off evil spirits, take it." ”
Her steps were fast, and as she walked inside, she shouted: "Big ghosts and little ghosts, come out to meet, there are grievances, there are revenge, there are no grievances, there are no grievances, and they will dissipate by themselves." ”
Even she didn't know where she made this thing up, anyway, it wasn't called to the real ghost, but to Qingfeng Qingran.
If the two of them had heard their own voices, they would have known that she had come in and would have found a way to join her.
However, Zhuang Siyan walked around the courtyard outside Lu Yuan, and he didn't find any trace of Qingran Qingfeng, nor did he see anything unusual about him.
It's just that his feet kept following her, holding the wooden stick tightly in his hand, and the lantern he was carrying swayed and flickered, flashing like a ghost fire, shaking the shadows outside the Lu Yuan.
The front yard went around, there was nothing, she wanted to go to the backyard, but was stopped by Lu Yuanwai, saying that there was an old mother living inside, who didn't want to see the living, and was afraid of being disturbed, and the most important thing was that she had to go to bed when it was dark, and she couldn't sleep anymore when she woke up.
Zhuang Siyan turned his head to look at him and asked, "Do you still have a mother?" Why didn't you see it during the day? And why don't you see anyone else in your house except you? ”
Before she finished speaking, she felt that there was wind behind her, and instinctively dodged to the side, the dagger was already in her hand, and she was about to stab it with her backhand, but she felt a pain in the back of her neck, her eyes were black, and she had fainted.
