no soul

The three of them opened the door and looked at it. A dense swarm of rats merged into one from the back of the house, rushing towards the gate like a flood.

One or two mice were knocked down, and before they had time to turn over, they were trampled to death by the swarm of rats rushing up behind them without stopping.Occasionally, one or two white bellies will turn out, and then disappear into the black, like waves churning in a black wave.

The screams of "Zhizhi" were intertwined, like desperate wailing, filled with...fear.

"Mother!!" Lin Hong has always hated rats the most. Seeing this flood of rats, he was almost overwhelmed, and the drowsiness disappeared instantly. He endured it forcefully and ran away without turning his head. Entering the house, "What's going on!! What are they afraid of? Is there a cat demon?"

Duan Yu was also shocked, and his focus was off-point: "Why are there so many mice here?"

Wan Guchuan looked at the rats, frowned and did not speak.

A series of sharp laughter suddenly burst out from the rat's cry, mixed with the sound of clapping hands.

With a crazy female voice, she laughed and praised: "Hahahahaha, wonderful! Wonderful! Hahahahahahaha..."

"Ah!!!!" Duan Yu screamed in fright, and hugged Lin Hong's arm.

Wan Guchuan glanced at Duan Yu.

Lin Hong originally felt numbness in his back when he heard that crazy voice, but now his whole body is numb from being called out by him. He raised his hand and rubbed his ears, "I will be deaf sooner or later!"

The voice continued: "Hahahaha! Wonderful! Wonderful! Hahahahahaha!"

"I'll go and have a look." Wan Guchuan walked towards the source of the voice.

However, before he took two steps, a white figure floated out staggeringly around the group of rats. His footsteps were light but messy, and he seemed to be dancing but there was no sense of beauty—it was just dancing out of ecstasy.

"Hahahahahahahaha! It's so wonderful! Hahahaha..."

The sound came from her mouth.

"Ghost!!!!" Duan Yu was about to foam at the mouth, and his eyes fell down.

"Why haven't you made any progress at all..." Lin Hong, who was held back by him, showed a helpless expression, but his heart was actually empty, after all, this man's smile was too creepy....

The visitor was petite, barefoot, ragged, disheveled, and disheveled, but it was still vaguely discernible that she was a girl in her prime.

She was still jumping wildly and clapping her hands, "Hahahahahahaha! Wonderful! Wonderful! Hahahahahaha!"

Wan Guchuan stood in front of the two of them, raised his eyebrows, and looked at her warily.

The girl noticed them, paused for a while, pointed at them, swayed left and right, and laughed even louder, "Hahahahahaha! Stupid! Stupid! Hahahahahahaha!"

"You are so stupid, why do you scold people as soon as you come here?" Lin Hong said.

Duan Yu: "Ghost? It's really you."

"Who are you?" Wan Guchuan asked her.

"Hahahahahahahaha!" The girl was still laughing frantically, with her eyes wide open and her mouth wide open, not intending to answer his question.

The rats kept coming out of the backyard.The young girl stood by, crazy, dancing, pointing at them and laughing.

There is a sea of ​​rats between them.

Lin Hong's scalp was numb from her laughter.

Duan Yu whispered: "She...she must not be a laughing ghost..."

Lin Hong: "..."

"Did you do this?" Wan Guchuan pointed at the group of rats.

"Hahahahahaha! Wonderful! Wonderful!" The girl still didn't answer, she continued to laugh wildly and clapped her hands.

"I think she's insane, so she can't ask." Lin Hong looked at the girl, but he spoke to Wan Guchuan.

The rat wave finally took its last tail away, and the last mouse stumbled to keep up with the team, revealing a large open space in the courtyard.

The girl suddenly hummed an out-of-tune tune, and walked towards them unsteadily.

"Ah!" Duan Yu grabbed Lin Hong tightly and took a big step back.

Wan Guchuan stood in front of them, put his hand on the hilt of his sword, and watched the girl's every move.

The girl stopped a foot in front of them, with a pair of staring eyes rolling behind her dirty hair, she put her finger to her mouth, "Shhh!"

"It's here! It's here!" The girl grinned, her face full of joy, "It's it! It's it! Hahahahahahahahaha!"

The girl clapped her hands, "Hahahahahaha they don't believe me! They don't believe me! Don't believe me! It's it! It's it!"

"Who is it? Who's here?" Wan Guchuan asked her.

Lin Hong felt numb in his heart, and couldn't help asking her, "Who doesn't believe you?"

The girl kept laughing, clapping her hands, muttering something, but didn't answer.

Duan Yu was about to cry.

"It's coming! It's coming! Hahahahahahaha!" The girl waved her hands in ecstasy, her footsteps fluttered and she retreated, her dirty white clothes were swaying in the night.

Pianran, she gradually receded into the night, she stopped smiling, tilted her head, and swayed her body, "I'll just say it. There are other people in the room. They don't believe it."

"Fuck..." Lin Hong had goose bumps all over his body.

"Hahahahahahahaha!" She burst into laughter again, but fell down and ran away.

"Hey!" Wan Guchuan chased after him and stretched out his hand to grab the girl. Lin Hong was so frightened that he followed closely behind him and grabbed him, "Don't!"

Being pulled by him, Wan Guchuan's hand slid across her elbow, catching nothing.

The laughter gradually faded away, disappearing in the night.

The unique silence of the night came from all sides, wrapping the three of them tightly, as if everything just now was just a big dream.

Duan Yu was already dripping with cold sweat.

"Is she a human or a ghost?" Lin Hong's face was not good-looking, "Did she cause the rats? What did she mean?"

Looking at the direction in which the girl left, Wan Guchuan thought about everything, and said to Lin Hong, "It's alive. There is warmth in the elbow."

"Is it a person? Who is it?" Lin Hong was shocked, "Suspicious and crazy. How did she come to this yard?"

Wan Guchuan said: "It may have been hidden somewhere since we entered the house."

"This..." Lin Hong felt a chill, there was a lunatic hiding in this dead courtyard, maybe when they wandered around, she was watching them somewhere...

"The land deed is in the hands of the pawn shop owner, doesn't he care?" Duan Yu calmed down a bit, "Let her hide in this courtyard? Still, come out to scare people."

"What's the matter with the rats? What are they afraid of? Her?" Lin Hong felt that all this was too weird.

"'It's coming' and 'they don't believe me'..." Wan Guchuan repeated her words, thinking, "'I'll just say it'..."

"'There's someone else in the house.'"

"'other people'."

Lin Hong felt gloomy, "Who is it? Who's here? Are you referring to the three of us? And who doesn't believe her?"

Wan Guchuan shook his head.

"If it's a human, let's ask her." Lin Hong said.He held back Wan Guchuan just now because he was afraid that this 'ghost' would be too dangerous. Now that he knows she is human, why don't he ask her to understand her?

Duan Yu wants to cry but has no tears.

The three people who got up in the middle of the night wanted to turn the courtyard upside down, but they still couldn't find the crazy girl just now.

"Is she really human?" Lin Hong made a tired voice.

She is like a ghost in the night, coming and going without a trace.

Unfortunately, not only was there not a single mouse in this house, but even the spiders and cockroaches were gone, leaving only cobwebs and empty nests.

It was finally dawn, and the three of them didn't sleep well in the middle of the night.

Today they decided to look for clues in this house.

"Keep looking for that crazy girl." Lin Hong yawned, "Strange, where can she hide?"

"Maybe he has already run out." Duan Yu said.

Wan Guchuan said, "Yesterday there was no door opening."

"Over the wall?" Lin Hong thought.

Wan Guchuan shook his head, "Chen's house is a wealthy family, afraid of thieves, the wall is very high, yesterday's test, she has no ability to climb this high wall."

"Dog holes, secret passages or something?" Lin Hong continued to speculate.

"That's not impossible." Wan Guchuan glanced around, "Keep looking."

"Hey!" Duan Yu called out.

Lin Hong looked at him, "What's your name?"

Wan Guchuan also stopped and looked at him.

Duan Yu stared at one place and raised his finger, "The location of that rockery is different from yesterday."

Lin Hong glanced at his hand, it wasn't too obvious, but there was indeed a scratch under the huge rockery.

Lin Hong didn't take it seriously, "Did a swarm of rats bump into it yesterday?"

The scratch seemed to be in the same direction as the rats were running.

"The mouse really has such great strength?" Duan Yu was shocked, "No way?"

Lin Hong thought about it for a while, but still didn't care much, "Did that crazy girl do it?"

"I don't know." Duan Yu was anxious, "But no matter what, it won't work."

"What do you mean?" Lin Hong frowned.

Wan Guchuan also looked at him and waited for him to continue.

"This rockery is located in the southeast of the house, and the things in the southeast cannot be moved after they are built! Demolition, new construction, or moving are not allowed." Duan Yu said.

"What will happen?" Under his words, Lin Hong looked at the place again.

"There must be strange things in the family." Duan Yu said, "It's the most unfavorable for the older women in the family."

Lin Hong was taken aback when he heard the words, "Do you still remember what the owner of the pawn shop said? Chen Bingchun's wives and concubines died one after another."

Duan Yu swallowed, "Well, it can't be so powerful..."

Wan Guchuan pressed his sword and walked towards the rockery.

Lin Hong followed him.

Duan Yu: "You don't need to be so close. If he can't beat him, you can't beat him even more."

Lin Hong: "..."

To get to the rockery, you need to step on a piece of grass, but the grass is still barren and lush, and there are no traces of anyone stepping on it before, unless you step on it lightly like him.Wan Guchuan looked at his feet, stepped on a footprint, and the surrounding area of ​​the rockery was clean - it was impossible to step over it lightly.

"No one has been here." Wan Guchuan concluded.

"Can't I grow legs on this rockery?" Lin Hong raised his robe, unable to get off his feet, and walked across the wild grass with difficulty.

Seeing him like that, Wan Guchuan felt that he could lift his foot and throw himself off.

Duan Yu stood outside the grass and watched wisely.

"Don't go, let's go." Wan Guchuan walked past him, afraid that he would really fall, so he stretched out his hand to grab his upper arm.

The warmth of Wan Guchuan's palm came through the material of the clothes, and the force was strong but not painful -- just right and calm.

Lin Hong was stunned, this was the place he had held countless times, suddenly, it was a little hot, and memories came up in a flash.

——the upper boat pulled him back from the drowned sea.

——Drawing him in front of him in the crowd.

——Dream back countless times.

……

Lin Hong panicked inexplicably, and subconsciously raised his arm and shook off his hand. With too much force, he took a step back.

Wan Guchuan looked at him, his hands froze in the air.

Duan Yuren was also stupid.

"I..." Lin Hong looked away as soon as he met Wan Guchuan's eyes, his heart was so confused that he didn't know what he was thinking, "I'm sorry... I was just... surprised."

Wan Guchuan lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on his hands. After a long time, he lowered his hands: "It's nothing. Don't drop it."

He didn't look at Lin Hong again, and walked away, "Let's look elsewhere." He choked in a low voice.

Lin Hong looked at his back, and suddenly felt a panic in his heart.

Duan Yu looked at him inexplicably, without saying a word - how dare he speak...

Wan Guchuan walked in the front, Duan Yu walked in the middle, and Lin Hongshui came last.

The atmosphere was a bit dignified, and Duan Yu felt that he couldn't breathe.All of a sudden, what's going on? ?

"Young masters!" A voice sounded with the knock on the door, it was the voice of the owner of the pawn shop.
