Chapter Twenty-Three: Old Mrs. Wu

"Thank you, what's wrong?" Zhang Cuiyun asked.

"It's okay, I seem to have seen an acquaintance!"

I waved my hand and motioned for her to lead the way.

On the way, Zhang Cuiyun told me about the situation of Mrs. Wu's family, and Mrs. Wu was a lonely old lady who had never been married in her life, and had no children or daughters.

Although I am crazy this time, I can take care of myself and eat and drink without anyone taking care of it.

While talking, Mrs. Wu's house arrived, compared with the two-story and three-story small western-style buildings in the village, Mrs. Wu's house was much shabby, just an ordinary brick house.

"Xie Dashen, you go in, I won't go, her house is panicked!" Zhang Cuiyun looked embarrassed, and there was a trace of imperceptible fear in her eyes.

"That's fine!" I nodded, "Sister Zhang, go back first, I'll go around the village by myself when I'm done, and I'll call you if there's something!" ”

Zhang Cuiyun nodded in agreement, and told me not to forget to call her before leaving.

The door of Mrs. Wu's house was not locked, and after pushing the door open and entering, I took a look, the yard was not big, but it was very clean.

As I walked inside, I asked, "Anyone?" ”

"Come in!"

I didn't think anyone would answer, but what I didn't expect was that a man's voice came from the room.

Zhang Cuiyun didn't tell me that Mrs. Wu's family has a man?

I thought I had misheard, and I asked, "Anyone?" ”

"The door is unlocked, come in!"

As soon as the hand was put on the handle, the person in the room spoke again, and it was still a man's voice.

I hesitated, but pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as I entered the house, I felt that something was wrong, it was too cold!

Compared to the outside, the temperature in the house was at least 10 degrees lower, and not only that, but the light was also very dim, so I was a little uncomfortable for a while.

But when the lamp came on, I saw an old lady who was hunched up from a broken rattan chair, carried a teapot to a cup of tea, put it on the coffee table, and motioned for me to drink.

In addition to this old lady, there was another person in the room, it turned out to be Zhang Mo, she was sitting on the sofa behind the coffee table, and there was also a cup of tea in front of her.

I looked at Zhang Mo, she was the same as a few days ago, her face was pale and she couldn't see any expression, and she didn't show surprise when I came in, she looked like an old god was there.

As for the old lady in front of me, just one look at her made my heart turn upside down, her eyebrows were gray, and there were more than a dozen thumb-sized patches on her face.

If I'm not mistaken, those patches are called corpse spots, this old lady is obviously a dead person, but Zhang Cuiyun said she was crazy!

"Drink!"

The old lady put the teapot away, sat back down in the wicker chair, and spoke in a man's voice again.

I hesitated and didn't move, this was the first time I'd ever encountered such a situation, and if it was just me, I would have turned around and walked away, not for a second longer.

In our line of work, you must definitely have vision, don't do it hard, you can't be called a god a few times, and you really think of yourself as a god.

What level I am, I know myself, empty-handed against the enemy, I will never be able to handle this old lady.

But there is still Zhang Mo in the house, Chu Mo said before leaving, if you encounter something that cannot be solved, you can find Zhang Mo.

Although I don't know what agreement they reached, I can be sure of one thing, Zhang Mo will not harm me.

Thinking about this clearly, I sat down on the sofa next to Zhang Mo, and I didn't move the cup of tea.

When the old lady saw that I didn't touch the tea, her eyelids that had been on her way rose upward, revealing a pair of gray-white eyes, staring at me coldly.

After looking at these eyes for a second, I felt a chill in my heart, and there seemed to be a person hidden behind those eyes.

"He is weak, he can't afford this cup of tea!" Zhang Mo spoke at this time.

With her, the old lady's eyelids fell again, and her thin body leaned back and retracted into the wicker chair.

I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, I already regretted sitting down, as the saying goes, if you don't do it, you won't die, but now I seem to be going farther and farther on the road to death.

And Zhang Mo's words just now, she said that my body is weak, what else is there to pay attention to this cup of tea?

It's a pity that I can't ask, even if there are a thousand words at this time, I have to hold back.

When the old lady retracted into the wicker chair, she said nothing, her eyes half-squinted, as if she were asleep.

Zhang Mo was the same, she didn't know what she was thinking, but her hands were not idle, she picked up her cup of tea and took a sip from time to time.

There was a dead silence in the room for a moment, and I felt panicked, and I glanced around the room with the help of my eyes, intending to find an excuse to leave.

The room was small, supposed to be used as a living room, and across from me was a row of faded old-fashioned cabinets, and by the window was an offering table, covered with a white cloth.

The window was blocked by a heavy dark red curtain, and no light could come in, so no wonder the light was so dim when I came in?

I'm a little curious, what were Zhang Mo and Mrs. Wu doing before I came in, and did they also meditate like this?

After Zhang Mo took two more sips of tea, he glanced sideways at me, a strange brilliance flashed in his misty eyes, so he put down the teacup, reached out and shook it on top of my cup, as if adding something to it, and then handed it to me and said, "You can drink it!" ”

I took the cup and subconsciously glanced at Mrs. Wu, who was still pretending to sleep there, and had no objection to Zhang Mo's actions.

I glanced at the water in the cup, it was brown all over, and there was no peculiar smell, from the outside, it was an ordinary cup of tea.

I took a tentative sip, my mouth was warm and cold, no different, but after swallowing, I only felt a cold breath spread from my throat and eyes, and half of my body froze.

After a long time, I slowly exhaled a breath of cold air, and I now know why Zhang Mo took a sip and drank it, and I also understand why she said that I was weak!

If she hadn't added something to the cup, I probably wouldn't have been able to freeze it in one breath right now.

Zhang Mo also took a sip of tea, but looking at her appearance, it was obvious that she had a hint of enjoyment.

Putting down the teacup, she glanced at me and asked, "Say, what are you doing?" ”

I looked up at the old Mrs. Wu opposite, she hadn't moved yet, I thought about it, decided to tell the truth, and told Zhang Cuiyun about inviting me.

"Crazy?"

After listening to my words, the corners of Zhang Mo's mouth hooked an arc, and she looked at the old Mrs. Wu opposite with a smile.

Mrs. Wu lifted her eyelids, glanced at me with those lifeless eyes, and said, "Crazy or not, you can see for yourself!" ”

"What's the matter with the dog spirit?"

I hesitated for a long time, but I still asked.

Old Mrs. Wu didn't raise her head, and said in that unique manly voice: "This is your job, you have to find the truth yourself!" ”

"Let's go!"

Zhang Mo also answered at the right time and waved at me.

This is an eviction order, although I didn't ask anything, but I can't wait to leave now, Mrs. Wu's state is too strange, I can be sure that there is definitely another soul in her body.

There is fraud in this matter, either Zhang Cuiyun didn't tell the truth, or something happened later, I went back to ask Zhang Cuiyun for clarification.

As for why Zhang Mo is here, it's not in a hurry, she will always come out, I'll wait outside.

The moment I walked out of the room, a long-lost warmth hit me, I took a deep breath, rubbed my hands vigorously, and felt like my body was about to freeze.

I'm very strange, what Zhang Mo is doing here, and how did she meet Mrs. Wu.

The last time I negotiated with Zhang Mo at the Han family, Chu Mo once said that Dark Gu, I don't know what Dark Gu represents, but it is obvious that this is Zhang Mo's secret.

She came to Mrs. Wu's house this time, was it for the so-called dark Gu?

There is also that dog spirit, judging from the reactions of Mrs. Wu and Zhang Mo, they should not have paid attention to it at all.

Old Mrs. Wu has seen things for the Zhang family, which can be determined, she is now with this attitude, does it mean that the original old Mrs. Wu is dead, and there is someone else in her body.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt right, and only in this way did it make sense, and I also noticed that Mrs. Wu's offering table was covered with a white cloth.

The offering table is dedicated to a hall, that is, the immortal family, which is now covered with a white cloth, and the white cloth is a cloth that is specially used for the dead, what does this mean It is obvious that the hall of the old Mrs. Wu is wasted!

I was thinking about it when Zhang Mo walked out of Mrs. Wu's house.
