Chapter 218: Stormy Rain
"See," Gu Qi said after glancing back, "What we are going to find should be important to it." ”
The two of them chatted without stopping their movements, putting together all the newspapers that recorded the case, and just as the two were about to continue their search, the originally dim sky outside suddenly became like day.
"It seems to be raining outside, and the bright light in the sky just now is lightning," Xia Mo and the others quickly ran to the house where Wei Nanyu and the others were, "Are we going to stay here or leave this courtyard?" But if I leave now, I'm afraid I'll get drenched in the rain. ”
Gu Qi put the newspaper back in its place and spoke: "The thing we are looking for has not appeared yet, we can't leave, let's go to the corner room to hide for a while, and continue after the rain stops." ”
The sudden change in the weather was not a good sign for everyone, and everyone could only temporarily put down their things in order to avoid being broken by each one, and after they entered the corner room, Gu Qi closed the door firmly, leaving only a gap in the window to observe the situation.
"How long are we going to hide here?" Song Haonan said in a low voice, "What if someone comes to this room?" ”
"Shut up," Jiajia glared at him, "as long as you don't speak or scream, we won't be discovered, and if you put everyone in danger because of you, I won't care about any rules at that time, and I will definitely let you die before me." ”
Song Haonan was frightened by Jiajia's words, shrunk in the corner and never spoke again.
The wind outside was getting stronger and stronger, and the lightning sounded from time to time, and a gust of wind blew into the house through the cracks in the window, making everyone shiver, Song Haonan was a little pale from the cold, but he swallowed back the words after observing everyone's expressions.
It didn't take long for everyone to hear the sound of raindrops hitting the eaves, and Xia Mo couldn't help but be a little happy: "Nannan, it's good that you let everyone hide in the house, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to go back the way we came in such a short time." ”
She originally wanted to use the sound of the rain to ask Wei Nanyu about her follow-up actions, but she found that her eyes had been staring outside through the crack in the window.
"What are you looking at?" Xia Mo looked at her.
Wei Nanyu pursed his lips and said in a serious tone: "I'm raining outside, because it's blood rain outside!" ”
Rain of blood? Her words immediately made everyone a little nervous, and when they finished observing the situation one by one, the ground outside was already blood-red, and the blood rain fell on the ground and splashed red bubbles one after another, and the courtyard seemed to be soaked in a river of blood.
"Be quiet for a while," Wang Yihan raised his hand and spoke, "Listen carefully, is there any movement outside?" ”
When Gu Qi and Wei Nanyu heard this, they immediately came to the window, listened quietly for a while, and found that there were other movements mixed in with the sound of rain.
Wei Nanyu closed his eyes and listened for a long time before speaking: "What you heard should be the sound of suona, and the sound is getting closer and closer to this courtyard." ”
As time passed, even Song Haonan, who was extremely nervous, heard this voice: "How can there be human voices besides the sound of suona?" Who would want to stay outside in this kind of weather? ”
"So it's probably not human," Li Lin saw the horror on Song Haonan's face with satisfaction, "What are you nervous about?" It might be the NPC out there that gave us clues. ”
After the courtyard was filled with blood and water, the rain finally weakened, and just when everyone was thinking about when it was time to leave, there was a movement at the courtyard gate, and they saw through the crack in the window that a team of relatives had come in beating gongs and drums, and there were many neatly dressed guests around the procession.
Jiajia looked at it for a while and felt that this team was a little unusual: "Isn't it? Listening to the tone of the suona seems to be quite festive, why are there two people in white clothes behind? ”
Wei Nanyu also discovered this unusual place, and everyone decided to hide in the house and continue to observe the follow-up.
After the welcoming team walked into the courtyard, many guests saluted each other with smiles, and they basically said some congratulations and other words, but the specific content was not heard clearly.
When the guests said hello to each other, Wei Nanyu found a little fire in the corner of the courtyard: "Look there, because it rains, the yard is very damp, and it stands to reason that it can't be burned, but how can there be a fire in that corner?" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, the small flame instantly turned into a soaring flame and swallowed the sedan chair, and the accompanying guests hurriedly fled for their lives, but a small part still fell to the ground.
"This fire will not continue here when it reaches the stairs," Jiajia looked out the window, "This scene seems to have been recreated specifically for us, and if that is the case, then we will be safe for the time being." ”
Jiajia's words were confirmed in the events that followed, and the flames in the courtyard slowly disappeared, replaced by white flags and banknotes all over the courtyard, which were exactly the same as those that had fallen from the roof.
Although the matter did not affect the people in the house for the time being, everyone did not dare to act rashly, and after discussing it for a while, everyone decided to take turns to let people guard the window, while the others looked around the house to see if there were any clues.
Everyone quickly took action, and when it was Xia Mo's turn to guard the window, she subconsciously looked out, and her face became extremely pale.
"Someone is coming this way, and I can even hear his footsteps getting closer, but I don't dare to look closely at what it looks like."
When Wei Nanyu heard the news, he immediately made a decision to let everyone stop what they were doing, and everyone closed the window and clinged to the wall, hoping to use the visual blind spot to avoid the sight of the person outside.
It wasn't long before there was a rhythmic knock on the door outside, and at the same time, an indistinguishable voice spoke: "Is there anyone?" ”
The voice waited for a while and didn't hear any movement, so he knocked again: "Is anyone in there?" Why is the door closed? I saw someone inside. ”
The crowd remained silent, and the man outside became more and more irritable, and the knocking on the door soon turned into a slamming door.
Seeing this, Gu Qi immediately pressed his body against the door, but he felt that the huge force coming from outside was almost about to smash the door, and he couldn't help but keep quiet: "Come on, that thing outside is extremely powerful, I can't stand it alone!" ”
But even if the boys were all in front of the door, it didn't help, the door was quickly slammed open, and a red-clothed female ghost with a cloak floated in directly: "Who told you to meddle in your business?" All of you will be punished today for meddling! ”
After she said this sentence with bared teeth, she directly skipped the nearest Wei Nanyu, but instead sped up and pounced on Jiajia behind her!
"Why are you chasing me?"
Jiajia scolded secretly and quickly turned around to dodge, while the others shrank into the corner, only Wang Yihan ran in her direction: "Come here!" Let's deal with her together! ”
However, the moment she turned around, a slender thing fell out of her body, Wei Nanyu looked at it closely, and found that it was actually the hairpin she was looking for before the embroidered shoes!
