Violent Swordsman in the Fast-Travel World
Chapter 66 This world full of ghosts 5
Looking at the wounded on the ground, Guli wanted to cover her face and cry, but what appeared before her eyes were countless thorns. She was no longer a human being.
Her sister's moans brought Guli back to her senses. Seeing the bloody body of Guli, she couldn't help feeling sad.
Guli hated her sister, hated her for informing on Louis and causing his death, but seeing her weak and about to die, she was heartbroken. After all, she was her sister who had been inseparable from her since childhood and loved to pester her.
Guli picked up Guli with a thorny branch and walked deeper into the mountains.
From then on, there was a castle in the world, very similar to the one Louis had described.
After listening to the story, Shen Yuanfeng tilted his head and looked at the portrait ghost: "Oh, then how did you know this story?"
The portrait ghost showed a lewd expression and said in a mean way: "I was brought here by adults as soon as the castle was built. There were also many local wood ghosts who came with me. When we are bored, we often talk about the past. Isn't this..."
The portrait ghost rubbed his hands and said, "Well, it's just a personal hobby."
It's lonely in a castle deep in the mountains, so it's normal to have some hobbies.
Shen Yuanfeng smiled and nodded: "Now that I have heard the story, I will keep my promise. You will stay in this bedroom from now on and don't do anything tricky."
In another bedroom separated by a wall, Wang Tianci and Shouhou collapsed on the floor exhausted.
"Brother Wang, we have searched everywhere in this room, even the cracks, and it seems there is no clue." Skinny Monkey wiped the sweat from his forehead, "But there is always a way out. I didn't expect that you and Sister Feng are related. Brother, we are lucky. I will buy lottery tickets when I get back."
Wang Tianci looked confused. He was still bewildered when he heard what Shen Yuanfeng said, but he would not interrupt and ask questions if it was beneficial to him.
"Well, I didn't know that Sister Feng and I were related, but if I think about it carefully, it's possible, because my mother never mentioned my grandparents, and I always thought they were dead, but now it seems..."
Wang Tianci was confused, wondering what might have happened, but he didn't dare to ask too much about his elders' affairs.
There was a knock on the door: "It's us, open the door."
When the skinny monkey heard this, he jumped up and opened the door: "Sister Feng, Brother Chen, you are here. We have searched this room and found no clues."
"I see." Shen Yuanfeng nodded and told the story she had just heard. "Tell me your opinions."
"I guess the core of this ghost den should be the thorn tree seed. As the core, it is naturally the concentration of the greatest energy. The reason why Guli can become the boss among the ghosts is because she swallowed the seed." Shangguan Yuchen speculated calmly.
"Then we just need to find Guli. The seed is with her. Let's go to the fifth floor to look for it." Skinny Monkey answered quickly.
"But I always feel something is wrong." Wang Tianci couldn't tell what was wrong, but he just felt something was wrong.
"Gu Li, the story didn't say she died at the end. If she didn't die, where would she be and how did she survive when she was dying?" Shen Yuanfeng was very concerned about the fact that Gu Li, who had turned into a ghost, hugged Gu Li and left.
"It's either Guli or Guli, or..." Shangguan Yuchen suddenly thought of something and looked up at Shen Yuanfeng. The two looked at each other and their expressions became serious.
"Let's go to the fifth floor first." If it was really as she guessed, the Thorn Clan was a tragedy.
The four of them walked out of the room. Wang Tianci hesitated to speak several times, but Shouhou was eager to ask for him: "Sister Feng, you said you are a relative of Brother Wang, but Brother Wang doesn't seem to know this relationship."
Shen Yuanfeng glanced at Wang Tianci meaningfully and replied, "Don't ask. It's just bullshit. If you really want to know, you can go home and ask your mother."
This expression is not right. He was even asked to go home and ask his mother. Wang Tianci was very nervous.
The fifth floor was reached very quickly. Although it was not yet night, the light ahead was rather dim and nothing could be seen clearly.
"This seems a bit creepy." Skinny Monkey rubbed his arms. He usually doesn't watch horror movies, but in this kind of scene, he got goose bumps.
Taking into account whether there might be any unexpected situations and the two people behind only had one amulet, Shen Yuanfeng wanted to draw the Xuan Lei Talisman on the palms of Wang Tianci and Shouhou's hands, but failed, and the job was taken over by Shangguan Yuchen.
You can't touch your palm when drawing talismans? No, he will do it.
"If you encounter danger, just turn your palms towards the ghosts and you will be able to attack them." Shen Yuanfeng reminded them several times, fearing that they would forget in a panic.
Wang Tianci and Shouhou were like children who had gotten toys, eager to try them out.
The four had just searched two rooms when the butler appeared in front of them, his hand having recovered.
"Why are you here, guests?" He looked like a polite gentleman, as if what happened at noon never happened.
Perhaps the shadow at noon was too big, Wang Tianci and Shouhou hurriedly hid behind Shen Yuanfeng.
"It's like this. We want to visit the owner of your castle. After all, it would be rude if we come as guests and don't go to see the host." Shen Yuanfeng smiled calmly, and Shangguan Yuchen also had a calm face, his eyes only lingering on the butler's hand for a few seconds.
The butler twitched his lips; he felt pain in his hand again.
"My mistress is not fit to see you today. She will dine with you tomorrow. I believe you will be considerate of the host's health." The butler stopped them gently. If he could beat the two men, he would have taken action long ago.
Haha, I don’t know how many times I have violated the taboo, but when I think of my own hands, I decided to let the master deal with them tomorrow.
"In that case, we won't bother you anymore."
Shen Yuanfeng remained silent all the way until she returned to Wang Tianci and his partner's bedroom.
"The owner of the castle is not on the fifth floor, and we'd better take action tonight." Shen Yuanfeng announced directly as soon as he arrived in the room.
"Sister Feng, weren't we stopped by the housekeeper before we finished our investigation? How did you know that the owner of the castle was not there?" The skinny monkey was puzzled.
"I can't use my spiritual sense to investigate where the castle owner is, but I just used it to check the fifth floor thoroughly." I also discovered some good things.
"Is it better to act tonight because the owner of the castle will show up tomorrow?" Wang Tianci asked tentatively.
"Because if a fight breaks out tomorrow I can't guarantee your safety." She wasn't lying. The other party had too many "hands".
"The butler came up directly from the lobby on the first floor." Shangguan Yuchen said his discovery. He had set up a small formation in the lobby, and he would be able to detect it if it was triggered.
"First floor, basement." Shen Yuanfeng, Wang Tianci and Shouhou all thought of this.
The four of them spent more than three hours in the room discussing their plans for the evening, and before they knew it, the dinner bell rang.
Unlike lunch, the housekeeper only showed up for dinner and left early. The seven people in the house finally breathed a sigh of relief and finished their dinner quietly.
Just as he was about to leave, Shen Yuanfeng inadvertently passed by and hinted that he should not sleep too deeply at night and should be ready to run away at any time.
The seven people's eyes lit up, their mouth corners were raised but they were forced down, their expressions were very strange.
