The villain is too beautiful! The hero is in love again

Speaking of which, the house where the Jiang family lives now is the ancestral home of the Situ family.

Jiang Wanyi, sitting under the eaves, lowered his head and listened to Jiang's father's earnest advice to Jiang Xianyu.

He had gotten used to it over the years, but today he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart.

At this moment, I suddenly had the urge to step forward and ask loudly regardless of everything.

He wanted to ask Jiang's father why he had to present himself as a daughter even though he was also a son!

Why must he, also a son, be sold as a deceased man’s wife and be buried alive before the age of twenty?

Jiang Wanyi took a few deep breaths and finally suppressed the resentment in his heart.

He habitually held the bright red transparent bead on his left wrist.

The ordinary red rope looks a little old because it is often rubbed.

The only few red beads that looked like decorations were also found among the relics left by my mother.

Maybe because it didn't look worth much, it was the only thing that Jiang's father didn't pawn.

Because his fingertips were clenched too tightly, the red bead, which was originally sharp in shape, pricked his palm somewhere.

When Jiang Wanyi lowered his head to check.

The palm of his hand was pierced and a drop of blood oozed out, but it quickly disappeared.

Jiang Wanyi blinked and no matter how he turned his hand over and over, he could not see the wound that was there at the beginning.

I could only lower my hands again as if I was dazzled.

With complicated eyes, she looked at the one hundred taels of silver ingots she had earned from selling her body neatly arranged on the table in front of her.

I originally wanted to hide my muteness by not showing any information, but now I don’t want to hide it any longer.

Jiang Wanyi lowered his eyes and opened his thin lips slightly.

"father"

The clear and pleasant, yet extremely cold voice made the three people in the hall who were originally making noise stop immediately.

Father Jiang turned around as if he couldn't believe it.

"Yi'er?"

"Are you able to speak now?"

Gu's heart skipped a beat, and she clenched the handkerchief tightly in her palm, as if she was afraid that Jiang Wanlin would regret it.

With his back to Jiang's father, he looked at Jiang Wanyi coldly.

On the contrary, his mouth was full of honey.

"What a good day today is! Several happy events are coming. It seems that the Jiang family will surely return to its former glory in the future!"

Father Jiang wiped the tears of excitement from the corners of his eyes and swallowed back the words he was about to say.

He moved slightly away, feeling uncomfortable, his eyes vaguely evasive, and finally coughed a few times as if he had made the final decision in his heart.

His gaze turned back to Jiang Wanyi's dark eyes.

"Don't worry, Yi'er, just go to the Meng family and be your second young lady."

"Anyway, the young master is dead. As long as you look carefully, no one will be able to discover your identity. When you turn 20 in three years, Dad will take you back from the Meng family."

But after three years, is it me or my corpse that comes back?

Jiang Wanyi sneered in his heart.

The deceased's wife was actually described so beautifully by Jiang's father.

If he didn't know, he would believe it.

The Meng family were not originally locals here. It seemed that five years ago, a high-ranking official in the court retired and returned to his hometown.

Bringing the entire family, young and old, they finally came here and settled down, and no one knew why.

The entire town’s business is considered the Meng family’s property.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wanyi unconsciously touched his throat which seemed to have been unlocked.

I couldn't help but think of the soul who called himself Meng Yanzhi last night, and a chill suddenly came over me.

The curiosity that should have been exhausted by these strange phenomena since childhood has finally come online.

He nodded for some unknown reason.

Maybe if I go to the Meng family, I can find the answer to all these strange things...

------

That night, perhaps because he drank too much water during the day, Jiang Wanyi put on his coat and got up to go to the bathroom, which was rare.

The huge former ancestral home of the Situ family looked dilapidated because there was no money to renovate it.

Wild grass grows in the cracks between the black bricks and red tiles, as if telling the story of the family's former glory and current desolation.

In the empty courtyard, it was pitch black, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you. Only his light footsteps could be heard.

The Xiaoxiang Garden where Jiang Wanyi lives is very large.

According to the pleasure-seeking Jiang's father and Gu, this should have been the place where they lived.

But it seemed as if the couple had never set foot here since Jiang Wanyi could remember.

It seemed as if the little boy had lived here since he was born.

Jiang Wanyi's eyes, which were originally slightly sleepy, opened up when he saw that the huge Xiaoxiang Garden was filled with countless souls that seemed to have lost their heads.

These souls were in a trance, their toes not touching the ground, as if they were being blown forward by an invisible cold wind.

Wandering aimlessly around the yard.

After hitting the wall, they bounced back and all gathered together, appearing extremely crowded, but there was no way to leave from here.

Jiang Wanyi was so frightened that his face suddenly turned extremely pale.

These should be phenomena from two different worlds, but from childhood to adulthood, there has never seemed to be a barrier between them in his eyes.

Fortunately, he had been accustomed to not opening his mouth to speak because of his serious muteness.

And was not discovered by these souls.

Jiang Wanyi's eyes quickly passed over these souls and looked towards the dilapidated well in the middle of the yard.

It is said that this well existed before the Situ family's ancestral home was built.

The well wall was covered with moss and looked like it was quite old.

The diameter of the well mouth is about two meters, large enough for a person to enter horizontally.

A large one is more like a small pond than a well.

The dark walls of the well had been eroded by time and were unrecognizable, with moss and weeds even growing in some places.

The strange thing is that the well water is indeed clear and flawless, but you can't see the bottom.

Looking up, I saw a layer of strange and cold white fog above the two-meter-wide wellhead, which made people shudder.

What made him even more horrified was that more and more unconscious souls were constantly floating out of the well.

These ghosts were caught up by the black air current gushing out from the bottom of the well.

Their hideous faces seemed to be in great pain, their mouths wide open in agony, but Jiang Wanyi could not hear any sound from them.

The scene in the yard is weird and creepy!

Jiang Wanyi's slight sleepiness disappeared completely and he stood stiffly in place.

There seem to be more of these things!

The three afterimages following Jiang Wanyi looked at each other.

Finally, a female ghost, dripping wet and still wearing the clothes of the previous dynasty, floated up and covered Jiang Wanyi's eyes with her hands.

"Xiao Yiyi, don't look at these ugly things."

Yes! As long as you don't look them in the eye, you won't be entangled.
