Chapter Forty-Six: The Female Ghost Is Scary
At the beginning, Chu Yu wanted to open a separate room for Zhong Peony, but Zhong Peony was resolutely unwilling in order not to waste Chu Yu's entanglement. Chu Yu also calculated the remaining coils on his body in his heart, and also calculated the coils that the two of them needed to wrap up after that, and felt that the coils were more compact, so after Zhong Peony refused to open the room alone, he didn't insist on doing it again.
The room between the two is on the second floor of the inn, standing at the window and looking out, there are several big trees not far away, at this time, the autumn wind is blowing slowly outside the window, and the leaves are making a sound in the autumn wind. A little farther away, there was an open field. Overall, this room has a fairly good view from the window. After the two stood by the window and watched for a while, they began to chat.
Zhong Peony said: "Young Master Chu, what do you think is the relationship between that fortune teller and that woman?"
Chu Yu said: "It should be the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren, if it is a father-daughter relationship, it doesn't seem like it." β
Zhong Peony said: "I don't think the two relationships you mentioned are similar. How can anyone in the world speak to his grandfather or father in such a delicate tone, and say that she is distressed to death, and it makes people feel numb to death when they hear it. If you care for your relatives and elders, you must first have a title, and the other will not be that tone and demeanor. β
Chu Yu said: "The two of them are so old apart, are they still husband and wife? You are really a little bored, and you really think enough." β
Zhong Peony said: "Women are naturally sensitive, don't you know? Maybe it's husband and wife, anyway, judging from the behavior of the two of them, it doesn't look like the relationship between the elders and the younger generations at all......
Chu Yu smiled: "Miss Zhong, it's really a shame that you can think of it." Would you marry such an old man, let alone the woman who looks like a flower. β
Zhong Peony said: "It's like a flower like jade! No wonder your eyes were not honest just now, and you kept looking at her." It seems that Mr. Chu is also a womanizer, fortunately I am not pretty, otherwise everyone is in the same room, and I have to guard against you, Mr. Chu. β
When Zhong Peony said this, although at the end of the words, she laughed, but she obviously felt jealous. When Chu Yu heard this, he smiled awkwardly, a little at a loss.
Chu Yu thought to herself: "How could this woman be so careful, she actually looked at that woman a few more times at that time, and she was in her eyes." β
Chu Yu said: "Miss Zhong is really good at telling jokes, when did I stop looking at her? She came out of the back room at that time, is it possible that I have to close my eyes!"
Just as Chu Yu was speaking, a cheerful magpie cry came from the tree outside the window, and Zhong Peony couldn't help but glance out the window.
Zhong Peony said: "Young Master Chu, don't quibbleββ it's too stuffy in this house, I want to go outside for a stroll and see the twilight scenery here, I'll be back in a while, you don't have to worry about me." β
After Zhong Peony said this, Chu Yu didn't say much, and let Zhong Peony go out. Zhong Peony went out for a stroll until after dark, and returned as scheduled. However, Zhong Peony's face looked a little strange at this timeβhe looked a little panicked.
Zhong Peony said: "Young Master Chu, I'll go out to live." It's not very convenient for us men and women to live in the same room, and if it gets out, it's not very good. These days, I'm used to sleeping outside, I'll be back tomorrow morning, you don't have to look for me. β
Chu Yu said: "Earlier I said to open two rooms, but you didn't agree, and now you say it's inconvenient, are you really guarding against me." I don't think the room is full yet, so I'll open another one for you. β
Zhong Peony said: "Chu Gongzi doesn't need it. I just asked the shopkeeper and the room was full. I went out to live for the good of my son, my son is dignified, you are in the same room with me, if it spreads, won't it ruin your reputation, and if you can't marry a daughter-in-law in the future, you will definitely hate me to death. This season, I like to sleep in the wilderness, you don't have to worry about me. β
As soon as Zhong Peony finished speaking, he walked out of the room, although Chu Yu hesitated, but he did not force him to stay. Chu Yu thought to herself: "Even if she encounters a pervert outside, there will be no problems, just let her go." Chu Yu thought about it, and couldn't help but smile secretly.
This is a late autumn season, tonight the moon is in the sky, Chu Yu can't sleep for a while, so he came to the window, ready to enjoy the moonlight beauty. At this moment, the bright moonlight is sprinkled all over the earth, and all things on the earth seem to be covered with a layer of light silver, and the leaves in the moonlight are fluttering in the wind, and the fallen leaves are flying...... Everything is tranquil and desolate.
Chu Yu looked out the window at such a night, and unconsciously, began to think a lot of thoughts, and started to be stunned. As the saying goes, "look up at the bright moon, bow your head and think of your hometown", Chu Yu is thinking about his relatives in his mind at the moment, reminiscing about the happy life with his family, when a beautiful picture enters his mind, tears can't help but fall, and soon blur his eyes.
Just when Chu Yu was immersed in sadness, suddenly, an eerie and sharp scream came, which suddenly woke Chu Yu up from his daze. Immediately, he turned his head in the direction of the cry and searched. At this moment, an image seemed to be floating towards him.
When he saw this, at first, he thought that he was dazzled by tears that blurred his eyes. Immediately, he quickly wiped away his tears, rubbed his eyes, and then looked at them intently.
Chu Yu was unsure and looked at it, but his look at it scared him half to death - in an instant, he almost became incontinent, cold sweat suddenly broke out from his body, and he couldn't help shivering all over his body, and his face became pale......
It turned out that Chu Yu saw a female ghost. The female ghost was not only cloaked and looming in the air, but also floating towards him from a far away place, and at the same time, she kept making ghost screams, which sounded extremely eerie and terrifying.
The female ghost screamed like this, and Chu Yu heard it for the second time. The first time was on the night of the tragic death to his family. That night, the female ghost's scream was still far away from their house, and the two murderers who killed Chu Yu's family couldn't help but shudder when they heard such a scream. Although Chu Yu had already heard about the rumors about this female ghost, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes today, he would have always been skeptical about it in his heart.
In order to save Shi Xinhui, Chu Yu was not even afraid of death. But when he saw this female ghost, he was suddenly frightened like this. It turns out that people can not be afraid of death, but they have an inexplicable fear of the things of the mysterious ghosts, and this fear is innate, and it has nothing to do with whether they are afraid of death. What's more, when Chu Yu saw this female ghost, she came suddenly without any psychological preparation.
Seeing such a terrifying situation, Chu Yu reacted instinctively, he quickly turned around and ran, and when he was about to take the door out, he had the courage to look back. At this time, the female ghost was suspended outside the window, and suddenly, Chu Yu was shocked again. Immediately, he rushed out of the room with a brisk step.
When Chu Yu rushed out of the door, the entire inn was already screaming, and the screams were also one after another. It turned out that when Chu Yu was enjoying the moonlight by the window, there were also residents who were enjoying the moonlight in the same direction like Chu Yu. In addition, some people heard the cry of the female ghost, and out of curiosity, they dared to go out of the window to see what was going on. So the female ghost was not seen by Chu Yu alone. It's just that the female ghost is flying towards Chu Yu's room.
Chu Yu stood outside the door and froze for a while. At this moment, his mind was replaying the situation of the female ghost he had just seen, and the situation he carefully recalled was like this-
When the female ghost flew towards him from the sky, she suddenly disappeared for a while, and suddenly appeared again, and every time she disappeared to appear, she flew close to him for a long distance; when the female ghost was suspended outside the window, Chu Yu saw in the moonlight that her hair was unkempt, her face was pale, and her facial features were missing; at the moment when he turned around and rushed out of the door, he seemed to feel a gust of wind behind him, coming towards him.
After Chu Yu finished thinking about it, he took a deep breath in a row to suppress his shock. Then he thought to himself, "My family is ruined, and all my family has died tragically except me, how can I take revenge if I am so cowardly." I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of some ghosts, it's a big deal that she kills me, and I myself become a ghost......"
After Chu Yu thought so, he slowly regained his peace of mind, and then he returned to the door, walked into the room, closed the door, walked to the bed, and finally sat on the edge of the bed. During this series of moves into the house, his eyes were fixed on the window. The reason why Chu Yu stared out of the window was because he was still a little weak-hearted. However, although the moonlight was still outside the window at this time, the female ghost had long since disappeared.
After Chu Yu sat quietly for a while, he lay down and prepared to sleep. Although he figured it out outside the door just now, ghosts and mysterious things are sometimes more terrifying in people's hearts than facing death, so after Chu Yu lay down, in order to strengthen his will, give himself encouragement and courage, his eyes have been staring at the bright window. Subsequently, Chu Yu slowly fell asleep unconsciously.
The next day, Chu Yu woke up early in the morning, and the whole inn was talking about the female ghost last night. At this time, Zhong Peony had not returned to the inn, and he was a little worried. He thought to himself, "Last night, I still shouldn't have let her go out for the night, if she ran into that female ghost, even if there were no other accidents, she would probably be scared to death." I hope she's okay, don't have any accidents, she's pathetic......"
Chu Yu was worried, and waited for a long time, but he didn't see Zhong Peony return, although he was more and more worried about her safety, but he wanted to hurry up in order to find a lover for Yang Yinhua as soon as possible and rescue Shi Xinhui. After some ideological struggle, Chu Yu decided to go out to find Zhong Peony. When leaving the inn, he explained to the shopkeeper that if Zhong Peony came back, he would tell her and let her wait for him to come back at the inn......
Chu Yu just came out of the inn not far away, and met a group of passers-by who were talking about the female ghost last night, and the group of passers-by said in the discussion that there was a girl who was bitten by the female ghost last night, sucked the blood dry, and died a very miserable and terrible death, and the girl was on the mountain not far from here. When Chu Yu heard this, her whole body suddenly felt cold, because she was worried that the woman was Zhong Peony.
Regarding the matter of female ghosts sucking blood, Chu Yu had already heard about it with Zhao and Fang in a restaurant. At this time, Chu Yu thought to himself: "It seems that the matter of the female ghost sucking blood should be true, not a false rumor. β
Chu Yu listened to everyone's talk, and couldn't help but ask everyone about the specific location of the murdered girl, and after everyone told him the specific location, he turned around and prepared to go to the mountain to see if the victim was Zhong Peony. However, just as he turned around, suddenly, Zhong Peony's voice shouting at him came from the front, and suddenly, his nervous nerves relaxed, and he couldn't help but let out a long breath. Immediately, he quickly stepped forward and rushed to Zhong Peony's side.
Chu Yu said: "Miss Zhong, why didn't you come to the inn to find me so late, it's really worrying to death." β
Zhong Peony said: "What do I have to worry about, if I am killed by a female ghost." Maybe it's a good thing for Childe, because it can reduce a lot of burden for Childe. β
Chu Yu said angrily: "Miss Zhong, what are you talking about." It's really a good heart, and it is treated as a donkey's liver and lungs. β
Zhong Peony said: "How can Young Master Chu be so stingy, don't you just joke with you." Last night I was frightened by the screams of female ghosts and started to have insomnia all the time. When it was almost dawn, who knew that I had overslept, so I didn't come for a long time. - Besides, Chu Gongzi's heart is good or bad, how do I know, even if you can't see it or touch it, you are not selling melons at the princess, selling yourself and boasting. β
As soon as Zhong Peony said this, Zhong Peony glanced at Chu Yu, then pursed his lips and smiled, while Chu Yu couldn't help laughing.
Subsequently, Chu Yu successively told Zhong Peony in detail about his encounter with a female ghost last night, as well as the incident he had just heard about a girl being sucked by a female ghost. After Zhong Peony heard this, not only did he look surprised, but he also looked a little panicked.
Zhong Peony said: "Fortunately, I didn't spend the night in the inn last night. Otherwise, Chu Gongzi and I may be on different paths now. β
Chu Yu smiled and said, "Miss Zhong is really prescient! I wonder why this female ghost wants to suck the girl's blood? It's so terrifying, it's incredible......"
Zhong Peony said: "The incredible may still be to come." That girl is so pitiful! I wonder how many innocent girls will die in her clutches in the future. β
Chu Yu was puzzled: "Why does your words always make people feel a little unfathomable? β
Zhong Peony said: "How can Master Chu be so sensitive, I sighed casually, you just think and guess." I'm not a ghost, I'm not like her, how can I know her details? Let's not talk about her, it's frustrating to listen to, and it makes people sleep hard at night. β
After Zhong Peony said this, the two did not continue to talk about female ghosts.
