Infinite flow: The non-African's partner is the European emperor
Chapter 68 Horror Manor 4
He was awakened immediately.
Zhou Xing also woke up and patted his back gently, feeling that his back was soaked with cold sweat.
"Having a nightmare?"
Xie Fei slowly came back to his senses, and then without hesitation he got into Zhou Xing's arms, sniffing his scent before gradually calming down, "I wouldn't have been curious if I had known."
Seeing the expressions on their faces after they came back, Zhou Xing guessed that they might have encountered something, but the two of them were stubborn and refused to say anything even when asked.
Zhou Xing chuckled: "Aren't you brave? How could you be scared to the point of having a nightmare?"
Xie Fei's cheeks flushed as he said, "It's all because of curiosity."
Chen Xuan was sleeping soundly and was not awakened by their whispering.
Xie Fei hugged Zhou Xing's waist and got closer to him.
Zhou Xing kissed his cheek and asked, "What did you see today?"
Xie Fei hesitated for a moment, but thinking that what had just happened was just a dream, he simply told him what he had seen that night.
Zhou Xing didn't expect that he could scare this man like this with just one hand. It turned out that he had no experience.
Xie Fei kissed his lips and whispered, "Are you really not afraid?"
Zhou Xing glanced at him and gave the same answer as before: "I'm scared."
Xie Fei felt comforted and was no longer so scared.
The three people including Qin Kaiyun were now guarding the mourning shed. Qin Kaiyun felt the urge to pee, but there was no time to go to the toilet as it was too far away, so he simply went to the small patio.
They didn't know what was on the other side of the small patio, so they were so fearless.
There was a big tree behind the well, so Qin Kaiyun went straight to the tree and began to release himself.
The sound of running water was so loud that it drowned out all other sounds.
Qin Kaiyun felt an itch on the back of his neck, so he reached out and touched it.
But he didn't touch anything, yet he felt that something existed.
A strange aura enveloped him.
The thin rope hanging on the tree branch was swaying in the wind, and the body in clothes was also swaying slightly. The rope loop tightened the corpse's neck, the facial muscles shrank, the eye sockets were wide open, the bulging eyeballs stared at the ground, and the shaking feet touched the back of the neck of the person under the tree again and again.
Qin Kaiyun finally realized that something was wrong. He began to feel cold all over. His back was soon wet with cold sweat and his heart was pounding. His premonition told him not to look back, but he seemed unable to control his body and turned his head back.
"what!!!!!"
"boom!"
The loud shouting startled everyone nearby.
Yang Qinglin and Xu Haoran also heard the voice and recognized it as Qin Kaiyun's voice. They looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and then walked towards the direction where the voice came from.
When they arrived, they were already surrounded by servants.
"Fuck!" Yang Qinglin saw the person hanging on the tree and Qin Kaiyun who fainted on the ground at a glance.
"What's going on?" Xu Haoran grabbed a servant and asked.
The servant also looked confused and kept shaking his head, probably because he was frightened.
"Isn't this the eldest young master's maid Qiu'er?" Someone finally recognized who the person hanging on the tree was. Qin Kaiyun was also carried out and asked Yang Qinglin and others to help him back to the room.
The housekeeper didn't let them guard it anymore and immediately arranged for people to collect the bodies from the tree.
Looking at their expressions, they seemed a little strange. Xu Haoran couldn't help but be cautious when he left.
Xie Fei was awakened by the noise outside. Chen Xuan quickly got up, went out to check the situation, and came back after a while.
"He's dead. He was hanged." Chen Xuan rubbed his head and said, "Qin Kaiyun encountered him. He was frightened and fainted. Xu Haoran and his team carried him back, but Xu Haoran and his team don't know the specific circumstances. We can only wait until dawn to see what happens to the others."
"Yeah." Xie Fei was woken up several times in one night. He looked listless and did not seem to be in good spirits.
"Was it found at the well?" Zhou Xing asked.
Chen Xuan nodded: "Yes."
"Um……"
Xie Fei lay back on the bed. After he fell asleep, Zhou Xing got up carefully and told Chen Xuan, "Keep an eye on him. I'm going to go out for a while."
He wanted to go to the well and take a look.
After the body was taken away, the servants also dispersed one after another. As the sky gradually brightened, they had to start working, so Zhou Xing's appearance did not attract anyone's attention.
Zhou Xing stood under the tree and looked up at the thick trunk. On the way here, he heard from the servants that the dead person was the maid of the eldest master Wang Baichuan, who was hanged on this tree, but there were no marks of friction from the rope on the trunk.
He walked to the well again, put one foot on the edge of the well, and leaned over to look down.
Although I can't see anything here, I can feel the presence of ghosts, and there is more than one.
Zhou Xing held the yellow talisman paper in his fingertips and just touched it against the stone at the mouth of the well. A raging fire started, black ashes fell into the well, and a sharp sound suddenly rang out.
He wiped his hands with some disgust, then went back to the front yard while there were not many people around.
Chen Xuan hadn't slept much, so when he heard the door open, he quickly got up and asked, "Brother Xing, what's going on outside?"
Zhou Xing: "Nothing, you..."
He paused, as if thinking about something, and after a long while he asked, "After a person dies, where does the soul go after leaving the body?"
Chen Xuan said: "If it is a natural death, it will follow the body and wait until the soul returns to the underworld after seven days. If it is a tragic death or suicide, it will stay where it is and wait for salvation."
"Well, then go to the small courtyard and see if the spirit of the maid is still under the tree."
"A maidservant?"
"That's the one who hanged himself." Zhou Xing added, "She was Wang Baichuan's maid."
"I understand!" Chen Xuan immediately understood what Zhou Xing meant. He was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something and turned back, saying awkwardly, "Am I going alone?"
Zhou Xing narrowed his eyes coldly: "Exercise your courage."
Chen Xuan said "Oh" in a weak voice.
Zhou Xing took off his coat and returned to bed with the coldness of dew on his body.
Xie Fei woke up when he opened the door, and heard the conversation between him and Chen Xuan. He opened his eyes and put his hand into his clothes, and asked in a low voice: "What did you do when you went out?"
Zhou Xing looked at his sleepy face and couldn't help but kiss him. "There are no traces of rope on the tree trunk. The body was not hanged there."
Xie Fei: "Is it related to those things in the well?"
"Well." Zhou Xing asked, "You only saw one hand?"
Xie Fei raised his eyes to look at him: "Did you see it too?"
Zhou Xing shook his head. He couldn't see those things, he just felt them. There might be more than one thing in the well.
"Are you still sleeping?" Zhou Xing touched him and smoothed down his hair.
Xie Fei yawned and squinted his eyes, saying, "No need to sleep. It's almost time to work anyway."
He rubbed his face, trying to shake off the sleepiness, and his cheeks turned red.
"What are you doing?" Xie Fei was suddenly hugged by Zhou Xing. He felt a warm kiss on the back of his neck, and then his teeth bit the soft flesh.
Zhou Xing seemed to be releasing his emotions. After biting, he kissed the bite mark before letting go.
Xie Fei sensed something was wrong with him and snorted, "You can't even last seven days? Men who have started eating meat are different."
"Good boy."
"Don't call me that!" Xie Fei's hair stood on end and his ears felt hot when he heard this name. He was a grown man, but neither of these two words seemed to have anything to do with him. "How dare you call me that? Don't you feel awkward?"
Zhou Xing smiled, straightened his coat, and leaned over to whisper in his ear, "Every time I call you that, you react very strongly."
Xie Fei actually understood the other meaning behind these words. He turned away awkwardly and muttered, "That's your illusion."
After they went out, they heard Qin Kaiyun crying for his parents from his room. They thought something had happened to him, but in fact, Qin Kaiyun had woken up and was still immersed in the scene of the fright he had just experienced.
Xie Fei did not go over to ask for details, but went to find Chen Xuan.
When Chen Xuan came out of the small courtyard, he was caught by Master Wang. Master Wang pulled him aside and asked him whether the death of someone yesterday would have any impact on the ghost marriage.
After explaining to him for quite some time, Mr. Wang started asking whether the courtyard was haunted and whether any rituals should be performed.
God, Chen Xuan really couldn’t believe why Master Wang trusted him so much that he even wanted him to perform rituals.
"Master Wang, you don't have to worry too much. The death will not have any impact on the ghost marriage. We should prepare the engagement today or prepare the betrothal gifts." Chen Xuan had a wooden face and didn't want to face Master Wang with any other expression.
Mr. Wang said, "The silk and satin haircuts are already prepared. As for the paper ones, should we go to the funeral parlor to prepare them?"
Chen Xuan nodded.
None of Mr. Wang's subordinates knew how to do these things, so he simply handed them all over to Chen Xuan, and asked two servants to go along with him to help get some things.
Chen Xuan had expected this to happen, so he didn't refuse.
Jiang Zhi and her friends were replacing the offerings in the mourning hall.
Xie Fei called Jiang Zhi over and asked her, "Go meet the second young lady again today."
Jiang Zhi: "Is it about the body last night?"
Xie Fei nodded, and Jiang Zhi made an OK gesture to him, indicating that he understood.
Yesterday, Jiang Zhi established a good relationship with Wang Yuqi, the second daughter of the Wang family.
There are a total of six children in the Wang family. The eldest master Wang Baichuan, the second master Wang Baishan and the eldest daughter Wang Yuqing were all born to the wife of the principal wife, and the others were all illegitimate children.
The eldest daughter got married last year to a warlord and she is back this time. The second daughter, Wang Yuqi, is still waiting to be married. The third daughter, Wang Yushu, is still young and still studying in a girls' school. The fourth daughter, Wang Yuhua, is just one month old.
According to the second sister Wang Yuqi, the relationship between the sisters was quite good. The eldest sister had a bad temper, but she was very protective of her brothers and sisters. Her temper improved a lot after she got married. They were all very sad when their eldest brother passed away, and their faces were full of sorrow for several days.
Jiang Zhi also specifically asked the eldest young master Wang Baichuan whether he had a lover.
Wang Yuqi said she didn't know either. She hesitated on this topic for a long time, and finally whispered to Jiang Zhi that her eldest brother was actually a playboy and a philanderer. He often went to places like nightclubs. Master Wang had said several times that he wanted to arrange a marriage for him, but he was rejected every time. It seemed that Wang Baichuan said that he would wait until he had enough fun before planning to get married.
