Lu Tie stood motionless by the stairs, as if waiting for the rest of the people to go up.

Zhang Chi hesitated for two seconds, and after seeing the faint ghost figure reappearing behind Lu Qinghe hiding in the counter, he resolutely walked towards the stairs.Xu Tianyi followed closely behind him, following carefully, for fear of falling.

And Ruan Shuyu didn't know what to think, and also raised his footsteps.

Zhang Chi walked lightly, and paused slightly when he passed by Lu Tie.He took a deep breath and managed to smell the bloody smell emanating from Lu Tie's body. Not only that, but there was also a bit of rancid smell that he had smelled before.

This rancid smell should not appear on a living person.

With such a hesitation, Zhang Chi saw the blood on Lu Tie's clothes through the light overflowing from the second floor.Large chunks of blood appeared on the clothes on his back, as if oozing from the inside of his body.The clothes he was wearing were originally dark gray, and with the dim lights and people rushing upstairs, no one noticed at all.

"Wait a minute." Zhang Chi took a panoramic view of the strange situation, and Ruan Shuyu's voice came from behind.

As soon as he turned around, he caught the nervous look on her face.He slowed down his pace, and waited for Ruan Shuyu to catch up before continuing.

After they successfully went upstairs, Ruan Shuyu was really relieved.Everything here seems to be a little different from what she imagined, especially when she saw Lu Tie and thought of what happened in the afternoon, she always felt terrified.

As soon as he reached the second floor, Zhang Chi stood still and asked Ruan Shuyu, "Didn't you kill Lu Tie?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Tianyi almost staggered and fell down the stairs, but it was Zhang Chi who quickly gave her a hand to stabilize her figure.

Ruan Shuyu seemed to have expected that he would ask such a question, and replied affirmatively: "I'm sure he wasn't breathing at that time." Otherwise, she wouldn't be so shocked.

Xu Tianyi was dazed by the sudden massive amount of information, and within a few seconds, not only did she know that the person who called them up just now was not a living person, but that this dead person was done by Ruan Shuyu beside him.

Zhang Chi didn't care about the turmoil in Xu Tianyi's heart, he asked again in a low voice: "You put his body on the second floor?"

Ruan Shuyu glanced at him and nodded heavily.

Zhang Chi knew that Ruan Shuyu had no need to lie to him in this matter, and he didn't have time to accuse her of breaking the law.To put it bluntly, the existence of this game itself is not in line with common sense, he can't control others, the only thing he can keep is his heart.

Then, things are much simpler.The current Lu Tie should be a dead person, but this dead person "lived" in front of them, and he was still able to speak.There were only two reasons, either Lu Tie was not dead, but with the murderer Ruan Shuyu still around, it was impossible for him to be so calm and dutifully let them go upstairs to rest.

So there is only one possibility left, that is, something controls Lu Tie's body to achieve a certain purpose.

For a moment, Zhang Chi could be sure that it was the ghost he had met by the river before.The reason is simple, they have the same rancid smell.

Zhang Chi silently gripped his ordinary kitchen knife tightly again.

Xu Tianyi licked her molars and asked, "Shall we go to the room?"

Zhang Chi asked, "Otherwise, where else could we go?"

Xu Tianyi: ...Forget it, let's just hang on first, I hope I can live on like I did in the previous world.

It seemed that Lu Tie really just came down and told them to go to the second floor to rest. Afraid of accidents, Zhang Chi and the others deliberately waited for a long time in the corridor on the second floor, but they didn't see anything coming up.When they stood on the stairs on the second floor and looked down again, Lu Tie's figure had long since disappeared.

[It's really like a tool man. ] Zhang Chi thought secretly.

The three of them were safe for the time being, and Zhang Chi didn't choose to immediately go to the room where the others stayed.While there was still time, he asked Ruan Shuyu again: "You must tell me your purpose and plan now. Since we plan to cooperate, there is no need to spend time on things you know."

【Um?Is there something I'm missing? 】Xu Tianyi quietly pricked up her ears, but Zhang Chi didn't let her go, apparently thinking she could listen.While secretly delighted in her heart, she consciously stood on the sidelines and obediently helped watch the wind.

Zhang Chi's eyes are beautiful light amber. When he looks at you seriously, he seems to be able to detect the deepest secret in your heart.Not only that, facing such a harmless handsome face, there is indeed a desire to confide in others.

[I just want to complete my plan faster. ] Ruan Shuyu thought so.

In the quiet corridor, Ruan Shuyu's voice was soft, as if telling a long-ago story: "I am not from Lujia Village, but I have been here a long time ago."

Zhang Chi raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect Ruan Shuyu to be here before, so he concealed his surprise and continued listening.

"You may not believe it. I didn't come here to experience any farmhouse pleasure. I came here to find my sister. My sister's name is Ruan Qing. She is a gentle and kind girl. Ten years ago, here was more than It is still closed now, but at that time my sister was an art student, and she liked to sketch everywhere on weekends."

"I don't know who discovered this place, saying that it has the most primitive natural scenery, and the only shortcoming is the inconvenient transportation. Of course, it is precisely because of the inconvenient transportation that the most natural scenery can be preserved."

The following story is not complicated, that is, after Ruan Qing arrived in Lujia Village, she did not go back. After Ruan Shuyu's family found this place, they found out that she married Lu Tie and had a child here.

This seems to be a story about a beautiful woman whose mind is confused, but Zhang Chi can hear the complexity inside.He had met Lu Tie before, but he was just an ordinary man in a mountain village. Ruan Qing, who was spoiled, might like his simplicity, but he would never choose to marry without informing his family just because of a sketch.

Ruan Shuyu continued: "I was only 15 years old at the time, and my parents wanted to take my older sister away on the spot, but at that time, people from the whole village rushed out, surrounded me and my parents, saying that since my older sister got married, Here, she is the daughter-in-law of this village, and it is impossible to leave."

The scene at that time can be imagined, a family of three with no power to restrain a chicken is no match for the whole village.What's more, according to Ruan Shuyu, Ruan Qing let them go with tears in her eyes at that time, and she stayed here voluntarily.

"At that time, my parents were almost pissed off by my sister. If my sister didn't want to, we couldn't take her away." Ruan Shuyu's voice was full of grief, "I advised my parents that after two years, my sister will suffer. Go back with us obediently, but I didn't expect to hear the news that it was my sister who passed away when we came back two years later."

And this homestay is actually not owned by Lu Tie, but the Ruan family's parents paid for the establishment of their daughter who passed away early. Because Ruan Qing loves to collect and sketch, they built the homestay here after her death, which is regarded as a place of mourning.Once she died, her parents who originally resented her ignorance stopped asking her about the past, for fear of touching her own pain.

"My sister had been buried in the ground for a long time when we came here, but I always felt that my sister's affairs were not that simple. I was young and couldn't do many things, and I didn't dare to come here alone. I could only quietly investigate and pay attention to this place." Ruan Shuyu The words continued, echoing lowly in the empty corridor, and the sound of the wind and rain being drawn outside seemed like someone crying.

Zhang Chi took a step closer, bowed his head and asked, "Then what did you find?"

Ruan Shuyu looked around suddenly, and quickly whispered something next to him.

Sensing the sound of footsteps coming from the first floor, Zhang Chi immediately said, "Let's go back to the room first."

Re-entering the room last night, there were already 6 people in the room where [-] people lived originally, which seemed a bit crowded.

Zhang Chi looked around for a week, and when he relaxed, he belatedly realized that Qin Zhu was missing.

Now that the wind and rain are blowing outside, and the darkness has swallowed everything, it is obviously not suitable for everyone to go out and look for people.Besides, it is estimated that no one will take the initiative to go.

Fortunately, after another 5 minutes, Qin Zhu came back.He was covered in rain, and he was holding a dilapidated red umbrella in his hand.Rainwater slid down his stern face from the broken hair on his forehead, and finally fell on the floor.

Umbrella is a sensitive word for them now.After all, the reminder of Umbrella Tomb also carries the word Umbrella.

Someone was about to ask a question, when he heard him say a word without surprise: "I found the umbrella grave."

What?Rao even Zhang Chi was startled, but then he remembered that he went out and came back in the morning, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind: "On the back mountain side of the hotel?"

Qin Zhudao nodded, wondering if Zhang Chi had misread it, he seemed to have seen a moment of appreciation in Qin Zhudao's eyes.

Everyone didn't know what charades they were playing, and when Liu Wanghai motioned Qian Xiong to ask with his eyes, Zhang Chi didn't continue, but turned and walked towards the bathroom.When he came out again, he was holding a white towel in his hand.He handed the towel to Qin Zhu, and Qin Zhu didn't have any doubts about whether the towel was clean or not, so he wiped it after taking it.

He finished wiping it in two or three strokes, and he threw the towel on the back of the chair next to him, and then said slowly: "The umbrella grave is indeed on the mountain behind the hotel, and there are more than one."

more than one?This is not good news.

At first, Qian Xiong and the others privately guessed that the ghost that appeared by the river earlier was in the Umbrella Grave, because the hints from ordinary people must be related to the ghost they encountered.Moreover, in people's general memory, the correspondence of things is unique.

An umbrella grave, a ghost.No one would have thought that there is more than one umbrella grave. Could it be that there are many other ghosts that have not appeared?

The more they thought about it, the rest of them only felt chills creeping up from the soles of their feet.But Qian Xiong and the others have experienced it anyway. After a short period of panic, they only have a sense of urgency to successfully complete the task.
