Chapter 8: The Strange Old House
"Visiting family!" He spat out the word lightly, which kind of gave me the answer.
It turned out that he was here to visit relatives, no wonder I said how I had never seen him.
"Then you go back to your relative's house first, and I'll go back first." I looked at the sky and said with some loss.
I had to go back and get my ID card and bank card out of my phone while it was dark, and then find a way to investigate the cause of my mother's death.
Thinking of my mother's death, my heart became sour again, my eyes couldn't help but be a little red, and my nose was unconsciously sour.
My mother loved me the most, but the mother who had just turned into a ghost only wanted to kill me.
Could it be that if you become a ghost after death, you will really lose your humanity? Or is mom being manipulated by something?
I couldn't figure it out, I just felt a special headache, and I was going to plan for it when I went back.
"Are you sure you want to go?" Gu Bonan interrupted my thoughts by opening his mouth, and coldly pointed behind me and motioned for me to look over.
What do you mean?
I frowned and looked back, finally understanding what he meant, I don't know when, we actually ran to the ancestral house of the Xia family.
This is the ancestral house built by my wife and grandfather, and it has been more than 200 years, and the well where my mother died is in the house.
I was running so fast and it was so dark that I didn't even notice where I was going.
"There's something unclean in here!" The man narrowed his eyes, his expression was a little scary, and his handsome facial features revealed an indescribable sense of oppression.
I was shocked, what does it mean to be unclean?
"No, how do you know if there's something unclean? Are you a mage? I looked at him in some surprise.
He glanced at me without saying a word, and the silent answer I took as if he had acknowledged.
When my cousin was born, my grandmother said that if I delivered a baby in the ancestral house, I would give birth to a boy, and I think they were old antique thoughts, so they were superstitious. But the heavenly brother was born, but the sister was missing. Looking back now, it seems that everything is hidden.
Just as I was stunned, the door of the ancestral house suddenly opened automatically, and the rotten wooden door made a 'babbling' sound, beating people's hearts like a ghost in the middle of the night.
Deep down, I was struggling with whether to go in or not. On the one hand, I had to find my own sister, and on the other hand, I was a little afraid of what was inside.
"If you're going in, I can consider going with you, though...... You're going to put this on. This thing wards off evil spirits and can keep you safe. Gu Bonan said and took out a ring.
I looked at the ring on his hand with some skepticism and disgust: "Wear this?" ”
"This is our family heirloom, someone bought it for 10 million back then, but our family didn't sell ......"
Before he finished speaking, I took it and put it on my hand!
10 million, even if I don't ward off evil spirits, I have to wear it!
"Alright, now you can go in......," he began, a slight smile on his lips, and when I tried to see it again, all I saw was a cold handsome face.
I don't know why, but I always felt like I was being tricked by him. But I didn't have time to think about it, so I walked with him towards the ancestral house.
Because there are no people, the house looks very desolate, but when you walk to the door, you can feel a cold breath from the soles of your feet and jump on the top of your head.
The night was dark, but I could vaguely see the old layout of the ancestral house, which was obviously empty, but I felt that countless eyes were staring at me from the moment I entered the place.
My heart was beating fast, and I unconsciously moved closer to Gu Bonan.
Because the yard was very dark, it was a little difficult for me to move, but I don't know why, I felt that Gu Bonan seemed to be very relaxed, walking with me easily.
His eyes come and go in the dark? I don't know why, but I think it's a little weird.
We found the well where my mother drowned, probably because of my mother's death, so the well was open and not sealed.
I just approached, Gu Bonan stretched out his hand to grab me, and said with a gloomy face: "Don't go over, all the anger is emanating from this well."
"But my mother drowned in this well, and if I don't go there, how can I find clues?" I say.
Gu Bonan glanced at me, thought about it and didn't stop me any longer, but walked with me to the well.
Suddenly there was a mournful cry in the courtyard, which had been silent just now.
It was like a woman, a woman crying so badly that the hairs on my body stood on end.
"Gu Bonan, did you hear anything?" I tightened my heart and asked Lu Yichen in a low voice.
He looked at me with some confusion, "No! ”
I was a little surprised that he didn't hear this cry so obviously.
"No, there's a woman crying. The voice came from the direction of the West Gate. I pointed to Simon Road.
I've never lived in this ancestral house, but I know that Simon, like this well, is a forbidden area for our family.
Gu Bonan's thick eyebrows frowned slightly and looked at Ximen's room, "Are you sure?" ”
I was just about to say sure when a pair of bloodied hands came out of the well unsuspectingly, grabbed my feet and dragged me naked, and my body lost my balance and fell backwards violently, and the hands dragged me into the well with all their might.
"Ah......h
Gu Bonan heard my screaming, turned around and grabbed my hand in time, trying to drag me back. But I was already half-in the well, so he had no advantage in pulling me like this at the moment.
In the end, I was dragged down by the hands of the well, and Gu Bonan almost didn't even hesitate, and jumped directly after me. The light at the bottom of the well was dim, but I could still make out the anxious look on his face.
Why did I know him for less than two hours, but I already knew him? And the anxious look on his face was unconsciously revealed.
I fell into the well first, and even though there was water in the well, it almost killed me.
The water in the well was very deep, and I tried to swim out, but at this moment a hideous-looking imp pulled my hair from behind me, and I drank several sips of cold water in pain, and I struggled twice, because it was in the water, so I was not strong enough to break free from it.
I couldn't struggle, I could only be dragged by the hair by the little ghost and swam down to the bottom of the well, I was so frightened that I cried, and my whole body was bubbling with a chill.
I'm not very good at swimming, so the strong feeling of suffocation made me lose the ability to think, and my consciousness became a little bit chaotic.
When I was frightened and desperate, a handsome face swam over from the well, it was Gu Bonan with a murderous aura, he swam over to save me, and the little ghost grabbed my hair and didn't let go, almost pulling my head off.
