Chapter 150: The Secret of the Haunted Mansion Revealed

Wu Zhiyuan also felt that the matter was not over yet, because when he was in the Dong Mansion, he clearly heard the woman's rapid gasp, but the ghoul he killed now was not a woman, so there must be a ghost in the Dong Mansion.

"Could it be the middle-aged woman?" Wu Zhiyuan secretly thought in his heart, he remembered the middle-aged woman who received him when he first came to Dong Mansion. Seeing Qingxu striding away with a meteor, Wu Zhiyuan hurriedly followed his footsteps and chased after him.

"Just chasing the ghoul, I guess the female ghost has escaped." The two stopped in front of the door of Dong's mansion and said with regret, but when he saw that the gate was still intact and the lanterns on both sides were still bright and high, he knew that the female ghost had not left.

"Why is she not leaving?" Qingxu muttered strangely.

"Maybe this is her home, even if she dies, she doesn't want to leave the place where she lived in her life." Wu Zhiyuan guessed.

"If she doesn't leave, I can't help her." Qingxu looked sideways at Wu Zhiyuan, revealing a helpless expression, "The Yin Soul is a thing in the underworld, I can't subdue her, if only your master was here." ”

"Let's go check it out first." Wu Zhiyuan took the lead in walking towards the gate, according to his previous observations, this female ghost is not harmless, and she is also Dong Qian's relative, Wu Zhiyuan does not want Qingxu to hurt her. Since Qingxu himself said that he couldn't subdue the female ghost, he didn't have to worry too much.

The two entered the house one after the other, bypassing the rockery, and Wu Zhiyuan saw at a glance that the door of the living room in the north was open, and there were several oil lamps lit inside, almost as bright as day. He exchanged glances with Qingxu and went directly into the living room.

The furnishings in the living room are exactly the same as when Wu Zhiyuan came during the day, but at this time, the windows are bright and clean, and everything is in order. In the center is a stone-ground incense burner, from which a lingering incense rises. There was a figure sitting on the chair of the Taishi in the north, and it was the middle-aged woman.

"Is it really you?" Although Wu Zhiyuan had long expected that the middle-aged woman was the female ghost, he was still slightly surprised when he saw it with his own eyes.

The middle-aged woman originally lowered her head deeply, but when she heard Wu Zhiyuan's voice, she slowly raised her head, her face was full of complicated expressions, worried, embarrassed, and ashamed.

"Supreme Taiyi Tianzun, since you have died, why don't you go to the underworld to report for anything, staying in the yang world for a long time will only harm others and yourself." Qingxu chanted the Taoist trumpet, earnestly and seductively, although his tone was calm, but the long sword in his hand was not put into the sheath, obviously guarding against this female ghost.

Hearing this, the middle-aged woman slowly stood up, and walked towards Wu Zhiyuan and Qingxu with a straight face, the two of them were nervous, and at the same time they were ready to take precautions, but they saw the woman walking in front of Qingxu, and half-squatted and saluted: "Thank you for the rescue." ”

At this moment, not only Wu Zhiyuan, but even Qingxu was puzzled, and the two of them were confused, not knowing where her so-called "rescue grace" came from?

"Don't dare to be, what do you mean by that?" Qingxu subconsciously took a step back and asked.

"I was Mrs. Dong's personal maid, married into the Dong Mansion with her, and then changed repeatedly, Mrs. Dong died, leaving behind the child Dong Qian, who was less than half a year old, I became Dong Qian's wet nurse, and then the master entered Beijing to catch the exam and never returned, Miss Dong Qian's whereabouts are unknown, the Dong Mansion is not financially supportive, and the servants have left one after another, and I am the only one left to stay in the empty house alone, and a year later, I learned that Master Dong died in a foreign land, but Miss Dong has been missing." The middle-aged woman's voice whimpered, obviously touching on that sad time, and at this point, she looked at Wu Zhiyuan.

"Later, I got a serious illness, was bedridden, suffered from no one to take care of me, and delayed medical treatment, and finally died of depression and died in that room in the West Wing." As she spoke, the middle-aged woman looked in the direction of the west chamber.

"Then why did you stay in the yang world and not report to the underworld?" Qingxu raised his long sword and asked sharply.

"After I died, because I was worried, I got stuck between my throat and chest in one breath, I couldn't spit it out or swallow it, and I became a half-alive and half-dead living dead, and my soul has been wandering in this mansion, so I delayed the day of reporting to the underworld, and I had to be a ghost in this yang world, but I have never harmed anyone." The middle-aged woman replied with an excited expression.

Her memories can be described as concise and to the point, Wu Zhiyuan and Qingxu knew the whole process at once, although her words did not exaggerate too much, but still couldn't help but make people feel compassion and sigh.

"What's the matter with that ghoul?" After a moment of silence, Qingxu asked.

When the middle-aged woman heard the word "ghoul", her shoulders couldn't help but shake, and a look of fear appeared on her face, she didn't answer Qingxu's question, but asked in a panic: "That...... Food...... Is the ghoul dead? ”

"I've been wiped out by me and the Qingxu Dao Chief." Wu Zhiyuan replied.

The middle-aged woman's face instantly calmed down, and she took a long breath and said, "That ghoul is not an ordinary monster, although he is timid and afraid, he is extremely lustful, and has the ability to hold the yin soul hostage. ”

Seeing Wu Zhiyuan and Qingxu showing a look of disbelief, the middle-aged woman continued: "A few years ago, he suddenly broke into Dong's mansion, gnawed my corpse, and controlled my bones, hiding somewhere in this mansion, and it is for this reason that I can't leave this mansion at all. He hides in a cave under the rockery in the courtyard, and every night after the sun sets, which is why I suddenly drove you away that day. The middle-aged woman said this, looked at Wu Zhiyuan, Wu Zhiyuan instantly understood, no wonder when he came to Dong Mansion for the first time, the middle-aged woman suddenly turned her face and didn't recognize anyone, and she had to drive him away, it turned out that she had a premonition of the appearance of ghouls.

"What's even more hateful is that that monster is in estrus every autumn and winter, and every time at this time he will transform into a human to be rude to me, and in the past few years, I have to suffer from his humiliation every autumn and winter night, which is really miserable." The middle-aged woman said, tears rolling down her eyes, obviously not lying.

Qingxu may not understand the customs of men and women, but Wu Zhiyuan is a person who has experienced, although he feels that the middle-aged woman's words are very pitiful, but thinking of the cheerful ** sound that the two of them heard when they first entered the house, Wu Zhiyuan has another opinion on her, perhaps, this woman is also half-pushed and half-done with ghouls, and she herself has this need.

Although it was coerced, this kind of thing between men and women was always quite indecent, Wu Zhiyuan and Qingxu both felt a little embarrassed, and the two of them either bowed their heads and said nothing, or looked at others.

"Now that the Taoist has gotten rid of that monster, it can be regarded as returning my free body, and the maidservant has thanked me again." The middle-aged woman said and saluted again.

Qing pretended to cough a few times, waved his hand slightly, and said, "Forget it." He turned to Wu Zhiyuan and said, "In that case, let's go." So saying, he took the lead and walked out the door. Since this female ghost is not harmless, and he can't subdue her, he has no choice but to leave her in this Dong mansion.

Wu Zhiyuan nodded, and suddenly remembered the bones of this middle-aged woman, so he asked, "Do you want us to help you find your bones?" ”

"No need, anyway, I have to stay in the Dong Mansion, and the bones are the same wherever they are placed." The middle-aged woman said quietly.

Wu Zhiyuan barely squeezed out a smile, turned around and followed Qingxu to let him go, and at this moment, the middle-aged woman gently pulled Wu Zhiyuan's sleeve and motioned him to stay for a while.
