When Zhu Mu heard this, he got a headache.

They can’t get out, it’s over, they can’t get out.

The singing echoed and they looked towards the deserted house.

The house was dilapidated and made strange creaking noises when the wind blew. From the sound, one could tell that there were some unknown creatures crawling around inside.

A huge tree towered into the sky, almost covering the entire house with its leaves.

"What should we do..." Zhu Mu was only a teenager. He looked at the house and trembled. "We shouldn't have come here by ourselves. We should go get help first."

"It's all your fault, little brat. If you hadn't used the spell on me, we wouldn't have been able to get in."

"Aren't you looking for your mother's soul?" Chen Diji opened his eyes wide, his eyelashes fluttering. "The jade pendant stopped in this town. We have found other houses in the town. It's not just here, right?"

"The senior said that we only have a day and a half left. How can we have the time to go back and ask for help? We can only come here!" He looked at Zhu Mu in confusion, with confusion in his eyes.

"Brother." He asked sincerely, "Don't you want to save your sister?"

As he spoke, he tilted his head and looked at Zhu Mu.

Zhu Mu slapped his head in regret and muttered to himself, "Really? Why would I bother with a kid? He probably doesn't even know what's here!"

"Forget it, since we are here, let's make the best of it. Now that we are here, let's go in and look for Sister."

"Yes!" Chen Diji nodded his head, "Let's go find my sister!"

"Fool, that's your mother!" Zhu Mu slapped Chen Diji on the head. Chen Diji covered his head fiercely and said to Zhu Mu aggrievedly, "Don't hit my head!"

Zhu Mu was so angry that he took his hand back after hearing what Chen Diji said. He said helplessly, "Okay, I won't fight you then."

He carried Chen Diji out of the house. If they took one more step forward, they would be swallowed up by the darkness like the house.

Zhu Mu was worried. It would be a lie to say he wasn't worried. He was worried about his sister Zhu Xindi and himself who was about to go to jail. Chen Diji...

At this time, Chen Diji only faced him with the back of his head, and he was also looking at this strange house.

Chen Diji's body was not even as tall as his knees, and he could not run fast or jump far. If he went in, it would only cause trouble for him.

In case there really was something inside, he would not be able to ensure Chen Diji's safety. After much thought, he decided to leave Chen Diji outside.

While Chen Diji was not paying attention, he used the immobilization technique to make Chen Diji unable to move.

Chen Diji is so well-behaved now that he has completely forgotten how Chen Diji had dragged him around before. He just thought it was the effect of the talisman.

After using the immobilization technique, he put Chen Diji on the ground.

He said, "Wait here for me to come back. Don't cry or make a fuss. If the ghost finds you, she will come back and eat you."

"Do you want to be eaten by them? Just like this, ah~" Zhu Mu coaxed the child, telling Chen Diji that he must not cry if he wants to live.

Chen Diji listened carefully and said, "I don't want to be eaten, Diji... Diji, don't cry or make a fuss!"

"That's good!" Zhu Mu had to admit that he was beginning to like this kid a little.

She has fair skin and a pair of round eyes, which makes her look very cute.

He took a deep breath and looked at the dark house, his back felt cold. But he had to go find his sister, and after making sure that Chen Diji was not crying or making a fuss, he took a step and walked into the house.

Chen Diji watched him leave eagerly. As he entered the courtyard, a gust of cold wind blew, ruffling his hair.

He obediently got up from the ground, looked around, and seeing that there was nothing there, he took small steps and ran in happily.

He didn't expect Zhu Mu would leave him outside alone. He broke into the house alone, intending to remove all the talismans on Zhu Mu's body. He was not so scared with a living person by his side. But now, he was not alone in the search.

While Zhu Mu was searching slowly in the house, Chen Diji had already run into one small house after another with his short legs.

He was very fast. In just a few minutes, he had covered a quarter of the house.

It's just... there's no soul wishing Cindy here.

His figure was so fast that he would occasionally make a little noise, but it was just a little sound, which was extremely harsh in this quiet house.

Zhu Mu was nervous and terrified. His legs couldn't stop shaking. But despite this, he still chose to continue searching. In order to not be so scared, he mustered up the courage to shout loudly, "Sister, sister, where are you?"

"Sister, if you hear me, just reply to me, Sister!"

Zhu Mu was really not that scared anymore after shouting a few times. Every time he went to another place, he would shout a few times to give himself courage.

Suddenly, he saw a short figure flying past, and he sat down on the ground with a plop.

His pupils suddenly shrank, his whole body was shaking, he stammered, and shouted, "Ghost...Ghost!"

"Is there a ghost?" Upon hearing this, Chen Diji hurried back, but he only saw Zhu Mu fainted on the ground.

To be honest, he was also a little scared.

Although Zhu Mu fainted, he was still alive after all.

He always felt more comfortable with a living person by his side. Even if he really encountered something he couldn't beat, he could leave Zhu Mu there as a target.

Chen Diji put a few more talismans on Zhu Mu's body, then took out a rope from his storage bag and tied it around his feet.

He walked in the house holding Zhu Mu's hand, with singing in his ears.

"Swing, swing, swing, the moon is on the branch, I listen to the wind."

"My mother told me to go home quickly, go home quickly..."

"Red clothes, white linen clothes, the swing swings back and forth."

"Red lanterns for weddings and white candles for funerals, but my mother is not at home."

...

Chen Diji bravely followed the sound. He wondered if Zhu Cindy's soul was hidden by the singing ghost.

He came to the inner courtyard and saw a huge locust tree in the courtyard. Not far from the locust tree was a well.

The well mouth is covered with a manhole cover, on which are tangled and dense locust tree vines.

And the sound came from that well.

There's a lid on it, her soul can't go back in!

Chen Diji thought so, but he still walked to the well involuntarily, intending to find out what was going on.

There was a hole in the manhole cover. He lay on the cover and looked down. There was a woman in red sitting inside. It was the woman who was singing.

He didn't take it too seriously. He raised his butt and walked around the manhole cover. Finally, after he had seen every corner of the bottom of the well clearly, he withdrew his gaze.

"Her soul is not here, then where is it?" After seeing this, Chen Diji jumped off the manhole cover, ran to Zhu Mu happily, tied up the rope that tied Zhu Mu, and planned to look for it somewhere else.

"Are you leaving?"

Suddenly, a cold wind blew by, as if someone was whispering in Chen Diji's ear.

"Are you leaving?"
