Chapter 47 Haunted?

"Squeak-"

The door that had been in disrepair for a long time was reluctantly opened a crack, revealing a more dilapidated scene inside the villa.

"Hiss...how can people live in this place..." Jiang Qiongxing tiptoed, carefully walked through the front yard full of weeds, and came to the main hall where the doors and windows were dilapidated.

Looking through the panes, the furniture in the room has long since disappeared, and the sundries discarded on the ground show how chaotic it was at that time.

She sighed and walked back along the dirty corridor.

I don't know whether Shi Yueren was deceived by the child, or the child thought that his relatives were still there.

If he comes here full of expectations, but sees this picture, he doesn't know what mood he is in, and where he will go next.

Jiang Qiongxing brushed aside the branches that stretched out into the veranda because no one trimmed them, and decided that even if no one could be found here, he would find a way to go to the capital to inquire again, so that Shi Yueren would not be at ease under Jiuquan.

I don't know if it was because of the influence of staying with Uncle Shi, but she felt that she was becoming more and more old.

Walking along the veranda for a while, the green shade at the back became thicker and thicker. Jiang Qiongxing reckoned that he had arrived in the back garden, but there was no sign of anyone along the way.

Every yard is covered with weeds that are almost as tall as her. The wind is blowing, and the curtains are so dilapidated that the original color cannot be seen, which has the atmosphere of a haunted house.

The mountain wind was so cool that it blew from behind, and Jiang Qiongxing felt goosebumps after he realized it.

What did the owner of the snack shop in town say?

Everyone in this place is dying...

She stopped and swallowed silently: As a staunch materialist born in a scientific society, she didn't believe in these things, but this is the world of books after all, and immortal cultivators are flying around the world. If there is another ghost or something... It seems that it is not impossible.

"Forget it, forget it, don't look for it, this place is so gloomy, there must be no one living there." She said to herself, seeing that there was a fork in the front porch leading to the front yard, she immediately quickened her pace, intending to go out from there.

In this way, it can be regarded as turning the whole villa around, not running away.

Just as she successfully circled the garden and was about to return to the front yard, she suddenly passed a small yard with an open door.

Jiang Qiongxing didn't know what to think, and glanced in casually.

This glance almost scared her out of her wits——

This small yard is paved with bluestone slabs, and there are not many weeds growing. The house inside can be seen from the outside.Through the rotted window paper, she saw a woman in white flashing past in the dim room.

Jiang Qiongxing almost blurted out a scream, and restrained his instinct with all his strength.

She looked up at the sky, and reminded herself that it was still broad daylight, so it shouldn't be the time for ghosts to haunt her; and even if there were ghosts, she was still a cultivator no matter what, and it should be ghosts who were afraid of her, not her.

Jiang Qiongxing took a deep breath.

Calm down, didn't you come here to find someone? Now that you have finally found someone, it is natural to ask the other party if they have seen that child.

But having said that, that child is called Ji... What's wrong with Ji?

Jiang Qiongxing boldly walked into the small courtyard: "Yes, is there anyone?"

There was only an echo, but no response.

She stood awkwardly in the yard, in a dilemma.

It shouldn't be, if the person inside is a living person, he should at least ask aloud, why is there no movement at all?

Could it be true...

Jiang Qiongxing pursed her lips, and took out a dagger from the storage ring.

Although if there was really a ghost inside, the dagger might not be of much use, but it could still give her some peace of mind.

Boldly, she walked step by step to the door of the room where she just saw the figure of the girl in white, and called out again: "Is anyone there?"

Still no response.

The door of the room was closed tightly, and she looked in through the hollow carvings on the door. It was dark inside, and she couldn't see anything.

Jiang Qiongxing began to retreat again.

No.

She shook her head vigorously. The unknown is the scariest thing. If you just go back like this, the more you think about it, the more terrifying it will become. Why don't you just find out.

Just in time to ask Uncle Shi where the child he was thinking about is now.

Jiang Qiongxing was heartbroken, no longer thinking about it, and pushed open the door in front of him——

The door of the room was in disrepair for a long time, and the whole door fell down.

"Hey hey!" She immediately forgot about the unknown danger in the room, and instinctively stretched out her hand to grab the door, hoping to hold it steady and prevent it from falling down.

But the doors of the ancient houses are extremely high and made of pure solid wood, which cannot be lifted by a ten-year-old child.As soon as Jiang Qiongxing grabbed the edge of the door, he felt something was wrong, but before he had time to regret it, he fell into the room along with the wooden door.

Finished!

She closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to come.

"Oh!"

The wooden door slammed heavily on the ground, sawdust splashed everywhere, and the dust accumulated in the room for several years was lifted up, making people cough.

Jiang Qiongxing coughed several times before realizing that she hadn't fallen, and opened her eyes in a daze. There was a white figure beside her, which scared her so much that she almost ran away from the door.

"Are you alright?" Seeing that she had already stood still, the girl in white let go of her belt and asked.

The voice is as clear as a mountain spring.

Jiang Qiongxing froze for a moment, raised his head boldly, and looked at the other party cautiously.

This girl was dressed in a pure white dress with a slender waist. She was about 13 years old. Her long black hair fell down like a waterfall. Her facial features were like a meticulously drawn meticulous painting by the best painter. Her skin was as delicate as fine white porcelain.

Rao Jiang Qiongxing, who claims to be well-informed, couldn't help but take a light breath the moment he saw the other party's appearance clearly.

Although this girl is still a little immature, she can already see her stunning beauty in the future, but her stature is extremely high, a full head taller than her, and it is not known whether the original owner suffered from malnutrition in the past two years and caused this body to be too short, or this girl is too well developed.

Can I reach this height in three years?

Jiang Qiongxing looked up at each other enviously.

When she was looking at the young girl, the young girl was also looking at her. Seeing that she hadn't answered for a long time, she slowly raised one eyebrow with doubts in her eyes.

Jiang Qiongxing came back to his senses: "Oh, I'm fine, thank you..."

The girl nodded slightly, said nothing more, turned and left.

"Hey, wait!" Jiang Qiongxing instinctively called out to the other party.

The girl turned around: "Is there anything else?"

Jiang Qiongxing hesitated and stretched out a finger: "You...are you human?"

The question was inexplicable, and the girl's expression suddenly became subtle, and she asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"Then I just asked if there was anyone here, why didn't you answer?" Jiang Qiongxing said.

"I'm behind, I didn't hear clearly, I was about to come over to see what was going on, when I saw you breaking in." The girl said slowly.

"...I'm sorry," Jiang Qiongxing looked at the broken wooden door on the ground, feeling a little guilty, "Then what, do you live here?"

"No, I'm just here to offer my condolences."

As the girl said, she turned around and continued to walk in. Jiang Qiongxing followed up cheekily. After walking a few steps, she found that there was a door behind, and outside the door was a small yard.

The yard has been cleaned up without any weeds. There is a table in the middle with an incense burner, white candles, and a basket of paper money.

The girl in white walked to the table, picked up the paper money in the basket, and lit it.

The flames devoured the paper money, turned into black fly ash, and flew into the distance in a whirl.
