Chapter 5: Ghosts

Feng tilted his heart and was shocked, and he held on to the edge of the well with his bare hands so that he didn't fall, it was him!

When the gray came closer, she could see his face by the lamplight, and her brows and eyes were the same as before. Qingyi's figure leaned quietly on the railing of the corridor, wearing a gray and white monk's robe without staining the dust, with low eyebrows and lowered eyes, a look of compassion and compassion, but the eyebrows were cold and indifferent, like an ancient well without waves.

"The little monk forgets the dust, and the female benefactor looks like an old man in the world."

Laugh and forget the dust, oh, what a name!

Come to think of it, after the death of his beloved, he broke off his love.

The old man, yes, she is just an old man in his world.

But forget the dust, one day, I will let you love only me in this life.

"Probably all women who can't love me are like me."

The night wind blew the phoenix's robe and gurgled in her heart, and a round of crescent moon hung in the night sky, crossing a layer of pale white on her, and her thoughts gradually returned.

Suddenly, the lights in the courtyard lit up, driving away the darkness.

Forget Chen's entourage put away the fire fold, walked to Forget Chen's side, leaned over slightly and said respectfully: "Master, this water trail has been winding from the well to the back of the head catcher, but somehow, the water trail suddenly disappeared when it reached there. ”

"Suddenly gone."

Forget the dust thought for a while, turned to the apricot white behind him, folded his hands, sang a Buddha name, and said gently and indifferently: "Apricot donor, this house is not very peaceful, the ghost is afraid that there will be some trouble in this life, and the donor should make arrangements as soon as possible." ”

Xingbai pursed her lips in horror, and before she could speak, a little voice like water behind her surrounded Wangchen's ears, and said, "Master, how do you know that this must be a ghost?" ”

Forget Chen lowered his eyebrows and pursed his lips without saying a word, the attendant beside him raised his eyes lightly, looked at Feng next to the well with a fierce face, and sneered: "What, this female catcher doesn't believe it?" But the frightened head catcher just now really saw it! ”

She looked at him with her eyes but swept the dust behind her with low eyebrows, her heart ached, she couldn't see his expression clearly, and she couldn't fathom him.

Feng leaned hard to force herself to stabilize her mind, and when she raised her eyes, her eyes were calm and waveless, she raised her legs and walked behind Si Ying, squatted down, and pointed her fingers on a trail of water on the bluestone slab, and said: "This water stain is all the way, obviously not footprints, but elbows and knees and creeping here, but there are more water traces here than behind, indicating that the person suddenly turned around here." ”

Feng stood up and walked to the well, she just held her hands on the edge of the well and found that the bucket on the well was not wet, but the edge of the well was stained with water, and now the courtyard lights were on, she found that there was a handprint along the well, but the handprint was unstable when it fell next to the well, there were obvious traces of decline, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the hand-to-foot footprints next to the well and said:

"Si Ying fell to the ground only five zhang away from the well, if that person escapes, but anyone with a sensitive body may jump back into the well, not to mention a ghost, but there is obviously a panicked handprint here, which proves that although the person jumped into the well, he slipped and fell beside the well, which shows that this person is either a woman, or an old man, and this person must have escaped through the bottom of the well, and it is definitely not a ghost as the master said!"

"You mean, there's a secret passage at the bottom of this well?" Si Ying got up, walked to Feng Tianxin's side and suddenly interjected, she stared at him with a touch of appreciation, but it made Si Ying blush, she said slowly: "Yes or no, go to the well to try and know." ”

Forget Chen turned around and raised his eyes to look at Feng Qianxin, smiled faintly but with just the right amount of alienation, and said: "Whether it is a ghost or a man, after all, it is a ghostly spirit with a black heart, and you must always hold it." ”

Feng looked at Forget Chen, and whispered silently in his heart, Forget Dust, since you have become a monk, and now you have entered the mortal world, what are you thinking?

"Okay, master, then you and I will compare and see who catches that ghost first?"

Forget the dust eyes like a spring veil woven by the cold rain in spring, with a clear Ling that has never been noticed, the corners of the mouth are slightly curved, and the faint smile is like the sun of broken gold in March, which is neither cold nor warm.

He bowed his head slightly at Feng, turned around and walked towards the inner room, and the entourage behind him turned to look at her and sneered, then turned to catch up with Forget Chen.

Si Ying walked to Feng Tianxin's side, looked at the gray that was gradually moving away, and wondered, "Who is that monk?" ”

Feng leaned in his heart and didn't look at the back of Forget Chen, lowered his eyebrows, couldn't see the look in his eyes clearly, but he didn't say a word.

Xingbai in the corridor looked at the well in the southeast corner, her eyes obviously shrunk, and she turned around to leave.

"Wait a minute."

Feng Tianxin suddenly stopped him, raised his head and asked, "You just said that the Xing family collided with the ghosts, who is he?" ”

Xingbai stopped and sighed slowly: "Alas, there is no need for me to hide it now, this well did have a man killed a few years ago. ”

Si Ying's body was shocked, remembering the terrifying head he had just seen, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly hid behind Feng Tianxin.

"At that time, my Xingjia was still in full swing, that person was a poor and sour talent, at that time it was my brother invited to the bookkeeper, but he was red-eyed and black-hearted, and he actually made fake accounts, embezzled the gold and silver of my Xing's family, and was finally discovered by his younger brother, he was speechless, he couldn't think of jumping into the well and drowning at the bottom of the well, but he didn't expect that after the death of that person, the ghost would not go away, killing Zijin and the housekeeper's daughter Liu Yuan'er!"

"Uncle Xing thinks that this ghost killed the two of them!"

He frowned slightly and said lightly.

Xingbai lowered her head, her eyes did not look at people, but she nodded in horror, like a timid rabbit.

Tilting his lips shallowly, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Xingbai and said slowly:

"Uncle Xing, don't worry, killing people and catching murderers is our quick catch, whether he is a human or a ghost, I will definitely give Miss Xingjia and the maid an explanation."

There was a wind blowing, with the moisture in the well, Xingbai obviously shrunk a little, he hugged his chest with both hands, as if it was cold, and said: "Then bother the head catcher, the guest room is in the backyard, it's cold, the head catcher should rest early." ”

With that, Xingbai turned around and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Si Ying raised his eyes and looked at the courtyard of the Xing family, and also shrank up, and when he saw that he walked back to the well, he stood far away, and said tentatively: "It's better to ......"

"I want to retreat again, why are you like a piece of tofu at a critical time."

He knew what he wanted to say, but before he could say anything, he interrupted him, but his eyes looked at the bottom of the well, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Who said that Si Ye would be the kind of person who is as timid as a mouse? Joke! "Si Ying

I couldn't stand the agitation method the most, and immediately changed my face, my eyes widened, and I was angry.

Looking back at him, he gently hooked his lips and smiled: "Very good, it's best to be bold, tomorrow you prepare a set of ropes, you and I will go down to the bottom of the well to see." ”

"What?" Si Ying suddenly vented his anger, thought about it and said, "This, this is too dangerous!" Or call a few more people......"

"Not necessarily."

Standing under the shadow of the moon, with no expression on his face, as cold as the moon, he shook his tail and raised his legs and walked towards the end of the corridor, Si Ying saw her leaving, glanced at the well in horror, and felt that this place was getting more and more weird, as if there were a pair of eyes staring at him in the dark, and hurriedly trotted to follow.

It's just that after they left, a pair of blood-red eyes in the corner of the compound were staring at them.
