Poor Ghost Up and Down 2000

The girl sat by the fire and rubbed her hands, watching the rain fall down the eaves from the light of the fire.

Although it has come to spring, but the cold winter is still there, the weather is still a bit cold.

As for the two teenagers, they were both sitting in their own place holding a book and reading.

Books are still a rare thing in this day and age, and most of them are hidden in the study rooms of wealthy families.

Judging by the appearance of the thatched yard, it should be just an ordinary family.

I don't know why, but the two brothers seem to be used to this matter of studying.

There seemed to be only the three brothers and sisters in the house, and it seemed a little deserted at night.

All three of them sat silently, only the sound of the fire being roasted, and the occasional flipping of a book.

"Bang bang."

There was a knock on the door at this time, the girl looked over, and the eyes of the other two teenagers also lifted from the book.

"anyone there?"

A strange voice came from outside, the voice was a little fuzzy, as if it was made on purpose, no male or female could be identified.

"Yes, is there something wrong?" the girl asked.

The voice outside the door answered.

"Sorry for the trouble, I'm passing by here, and it's raining heavily, can I please take a shelter from the rain?"

The voice was polite, but in the ears of the two teenagers in the room, it made them frown.

Today's world is not peaceful, the Yellow Turban is in chaos, and the bandits are rampant.

Passers-by who are still on their way at such a late hour will inevitably make people think of a bad place to go.

The girl at the side didn't think too much, she answered and was about to open the door.

"Wait a minute." The short-shirted boy at the side stopped her.

"Uncle, what's the matter?" the girl asked with some doubts.

"Let me ask first."

The boy looked outside the door and asked with a pretended smile.

"The road is not easy to walk at night. I don't know where brother is from. How did you get here?"

The voice outside the door paused for a moment, probably realizing that he was misunderstood, and there was some helplessness in the voice.

"Wu Wu He Fang is just a study tour. I planned to spend the night in the nearby woods, but unexpectedly it started to rain, and there is no other place nearby, so I came here."

The boy in the short shirt looked back at his elder brother in the hall.

Seeing him nodding his head, he breathed a sigh of relief and said to the door.

"Brother, wait a minute, and I will open the door for you."

The boy walked to the door and opened it.

The person standing outside the house was drenched, with a bamboo hat on his head, and the rain was dripping on the side of the bamboo hat.

He was wearing a gray cloth robe, but he couldn't see his original appearance clearly at this time.

There was a box made of bamboo and wood on his back, and he didn't know what was in it. It was strange that the box didn't seem to be very wet.

He held a black cane in his hand, and there was a thin slit on the cane, which seemed to be detachable.

The boy smiled apologetically and said.

"It's really embarrassing for my brother to wait outside for so long. It's not peaceful outside now, so I'm a little more careful. I hope you can forgive me."

"Oh, nothing."

The man in gray smiled and waved his hands nonchalantly.There were some strange glances at the teenager in front of him.

Although he looked like an ordinary peasant boy, his behavior was decent and polite.

It's not that it's bad, it's just a little surprising.

The boy led the man in gray into the hall, where the fire was warmer than outside.

The young man in white robe who had been sitting in the hall had just a normal and indifferent appearance.

But when he saw the appearance and attire of the man in gray, he was stunned for a moment, then a bit of disgust appeared in his eyes, he snorted softly, and did not greet the man in gray.

The boy who led the man in gray also noticed his brother's attitude and was a little puzzled.

Usually, except for a few of his friends, my elder brother doesn't talk to outsiders very much, but the etiquette is usually not lost, and it is rarely like this time.

The man in gray seemed to have noticed the attitude of the white-robed boy, but he didn't pay much attention to it, and just saluted briefly.

"Mysterious Gu Nan, thank you for taking me in."

"En." The white-robed boy nodded lightly.

"Leave early when the rain stops."

This is almost the same as issuing an order to evict a guest.

The short-shirted boy standing aside smiled awkwardly and said to Gu Nan.

"My lord, Zhuge Jun, Brother Jia Zhong usually speaks less than others, how rude of you."

"That's it." A girl's voice came.

"Brother Zhong is always like this, just ignore him."

Gu Nan turned her head to look at the girl, it was the girl she saw that evening.

The girl handed a piece of linen to Gu Nan and said with a smile: "Wipe it, my name is Zhuge Ying."

At this age, he should be so lively.

"Thank you."

Gu Nan smiled and took the sackcloth.

Zhuge, a rare surname, and Zhuge Jun's name is also somewhat familiar, but he can't remember who it is for a while.
