The news that the housekeeper Asan fainted from fright quickly spread throughout the mansion, naturally causing panic among the people.

At this time, the head of the family, Fang Shuang, should naturally stand up.

But even so, Fang Shuang still did not show up.

So many servants have begun to discuss whether they should go out and hide for a while.

However, the Fang family has had very strict rules over the years. Ordinary servants are fine, but if a slave escapes, he will be caught and have his legs broken or even killed.

After Ah San was so frightened that he couldn't get out of bed, the mansion was temporarily taken over by the head security guard Li Zhi.

Li Zhi brought a group of thugs with him, full of murderous intent. How could these servants dare to escape? Only by gathering together at night could they feel a little safer.

Li Zhi was also worried because even he had not seen the head of the family recently and only received instructions outside the other's door.

She was a little confused. When such a big thing happened in the mansion, why did the head of the family stay in the house all day?

Not sure if it was an illusion or something, Li Zhi thought that the strange things happened shortly after the head of the family and his senior sister returned from outside.

These days, paper people appear from time to time, scaring many people to the point of collapse.

Some young servants asked for leave one after another. Li Zhi agreed to a small number of them, but the remaining servants were already showing signs of going berserk.

Several skilled servants escaped over the wall at night, leaving the mansion in chaos.

Li Zhi went to ask Fang Shuang for instructions, but received a perfunctory reply of "handle it yourself".

Li Zhi was also a person who had been in the underworld. Although he had never seen anything strange, he had heard of some things and couldn't help but feel that this matter was strange.

So she discussed it privately with a few close sisters and decided that they should just run away tonight.

There are so many places to make money in this world. They are skilled and have food to eat. There is no need to risk their lives here.

Because there is something really strange in the house, the housekeeper Asan is a lesson for us.

Because the housekeeper Asan died at dusk that day.

His eyeballs looked like they were about to fall out, and it was obvious that he was scared to death.

That night, Li Zhi and others gathered in the backyard according to the plan and prepared to escape.

In this kind of thing, the real fear is that someone will leak the secret. Unfortunately, there is no wall that is impenetrable. Some frightened servants and domestic slaves heard the noise and joined the team.

After this escape, the Fang Mansion was completely ruined.

But even ants try to survive, let alone humans.

Paper figures keep appearing in the house, and even the housekeeper is dead. Shouldn't I just run away and wait for death?

Li Zhi led everyone and prepared to escape under the cover of night, but when they rushed to the front yard, they were completely stunned.

Everyone's face was distorted with fear, and they looked like ghosts in the night.

They saw paper dolls, densely packed paper dolls.

The spacious front yard of Fang's house was now filled with paper figures.

These paper figures were either kneeling or standing in the yard, not moving at all, making one's scalp tingle just by looking at them.

How could so many paper figures appear at once?

Soon, someone discovered paper people on the beams and on the roof.

The faces of these paper figures looked so eerie and strange under the pale moonlight.

Everyone thought these paper figures were looking at them.

The road ahead was blocked, and many people started running to the backyard.

But at some point, countless paper figures appeared in the willow forest and the pond in the backyard.

Li Zhi's scalp tingled as he watched. After calming himself down a bit, he shouted, "Everyone, follow me out the main gate! They're just some paper figures, what are you afraid of?"

Under her command, the crowd quickly gathered together and rushed out following Li Zhi.

When this group of people rushed out with their heads held high, they would naturally bump into these densely packed paper people.

These paper figures were not strong and were soon smashed to pieces. What was scary was that they actually let out sharp screams.

As if they were living people!

Everyone's scalp was bursting with fear. If they hadn't seen the main entrance of the mansion right there, they would have collapsed long ago.

When a group of people rushed to the gate and hurriedly pushed open the heavy door, desperate cries resounded through the night in an instant.

Outside the Fang residence, a dense pile of paper figures had formed at some point.

They have different shapes and exaggerated expressions, and they are all staring at these people.

At this time, the paper figures that were previously in the house turned around and looked at Li Zhi and the others coldly.

Soon, the desperate cries disappeared into the night.

When the morning sun came, the door of Fang's house was closed, no different from usual.

But when you listen carefully, you will hear a lot of rustling sounds, like the sound of wind blowing through window paper.

……

A few days later, Fang Shuang's husband returned from his hometown after visiting relatives and found something wrong.

It's a bit too quiet.

Although Fang's house is located on a hillside outside Xinghua Town and is not as lively as Xinghua Town, there are still many servants in the house, so it is impossible for it to be so quiet at this time.

As he approached the door of his house with several servants and guards, one of the guards suddenly let out a loud cry, fell to the ground, and exclaimed: "People! People!"

Everyone followed her gaze and saw many heads lying on the edge of the high wall of Fang's house.

The paper man’s head!

These heads looked particularly strange, staring at them, making people feel cold down their spines.

Fang Shuang's husband, Li Su, couldn't help but scream, "Run! Run! Run!"

……

When Fang Shuang's husband told Gu Jiu and the others about his experience, Gu Jiu was confused and said, "Didn't you ask Qingxi Academy for help?"

Li Su wiped his tears, his legs trembling, and said, "I've sent someone to ask for help. Sir, you must save my wife. How can I live without her?"

Gu Jiu hesitated for a moment and said, "But this matter is not our responsibility. I'm afraid of breaking the rules."

Li Su hurriedly said, "Sir, we won't break the rules, we won't break the rules. We invited them all. The more capable people we have, the better. I'm worried that the teachers at Qingxi Academy won't take this seriously. I know the reputation of your Qingliu Academy. Sir, you must save our Fang family."

Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows, coughed, and said, "Do you know the rules of my academy?"

Li Su held Gu Jiu's hand and said tremblingly, "The academy is short of everything, five hundred taels of gold."

Gu Jiu didn't say anything.

"No! Eight hundred taels!"

Gu Jiu then shook his hand and said seriously, "Deal."

Chapter 6 I, Gu Jiu, tremble

Eight hundred taels of gold is really an astronomical figure for an ordinary family.

Even the richest people in Yanyang City only had assets of a few thousand taels of gold.

The man from the Fang family spent eight hundred taels of gold at once, obviously he was risking everything.

Yes, what’s the use of money if people are gone.

In other words, if you can't even enter the house, where does the money come from?

Gu Jiu calculated that the academy's current net income was actually equivalent to the fifty taels of silver he paid last year. With eight hundred taels of gold, the academy would have a basic fund.

At this moment, Xiao Qi rushed out of the room and said excitedly: "Where are the ghosts? Let me do it!"

Gu Jiu lay on the rattan chair, looking at Xiao Qi's excited expression, and said: "Senior Sister, you should just focus on your retreat. Breakthroughs are not something you can be careless about."

These days, Xiao Qi has stepped on the threshold of the third level of concentration, but he has not been able to stand firmly, so he is consolidating his basic skills.

Su Ying has experience in this, so she has been tutoring her recently.

It is no exaggeration for Gu Jiu to say that this is a critical moment for her.

So, only Gu Jiu went on this mission.

Su Ying was a little worried and asked, "Xiao Jiu, are you okay?"

Gu Jiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, auntie. I'm afraid of death, so I can run fast. Besides, there are people from Qingxi Academy charging ahead."

After hearing the conversation between Gu Jiu and Su Ying, Li Su couldn't help but doubt whether the money he invested was worth it.

Will I lose a lot of money?

I won’t say anything if a man comes. It’s not that he looks down on men, but men are really not as good as women in this aspect. And he is a man who is afraid of death, which is even more speechless.

But thinking that there was no other way anyway, I decided to give it a try. One more person means more strength. If it can solve the problem, then the money will be worth it even if it is wasted.

Soon, Gu Jiu followed them.

As usual, he was lying on the little grey's back, so leisurely that his sponsor Li Su thought that this guy was really here to cheat him out of money.

However, thinking that he had not paid yet, Li Su felt a little comforted.

When Gu Jiu arrived a few miles away from Fang's house, Li Su and his group did not dare to move forward, saying that they were afraid.

Yes, thinking of the scene of those paper people lying on the courtyard wall and looking at him, Gu Jiu was also scared and trembling.

Then Gu Jiu patted Xiao Hui and signaled him to move on.

Seeing that Gu Jiu was about to leave, Li Su couldn't help but ask, "Sir, do you want to wait for the teacher from Qingxi Academy?"

MMP, are you afraid of death? Aren't you afraid of being the one to deliver the food?

Gu Jiu glanced at the house from a distance and asked, "How many days has no one been out here?"

Li Su said: "I don't know. I heard from people outside that it has been at least three or four days. I went back to my husband's house at that time, wuwu... Who would have thought..."

Thinking that no one had come out for three or four days, Gu Jiu guessed that the people inside were already dead, so he decided to wait and see.

If I go in first, Qingxi Academy will probably talk about the rules again.

After all, even though he spanked that guy named Luo Lin, Luo Lin didn't have the final say in Qingxi Academy.

Or if you have time one day, go and give the other dean a spanking?

But seeing the grown man in front of him about to burst into tears again, Gu Jiu felt a little hot in his eyes and asked hurriedly: "What does your wife do?"

Li Su hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm in the antique business."

After looking at the other person's expression, Gu Jiu immediately knew that the other person was lying.

But it doesn’t matter, as long as I can make money.

About two cups of tea later, three female disciples from Qingxi Academy came rushing over.

The three female disciples, one big and two small, had swords on their waists and looked very cold.

When they saw Gu Jiu lying on the donkey's back, they thought he was from the Li Su family and frowned slightly.

Could it be the young master of the Fang family?

But the father was still standing there in fear, why was his son lying down?

However, seeing that Gu Jiu was indeed handsome, they temporarily forgave him.

The leading female disciple was about thirty years old and was probably a teacher at Qingxi Academy. Looking at Li Su, who was dressed like a wealthy man, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly and said, "Is there something wrong with your family?"

"Yes! Yes! Sir, something happened in my home." Li Su said hurriedly.

As he spoke, he pointed to his own house and recounted the scene he had seen before.

The female instructor nodded and said, "I understand. Let's go and take a look."

As she spoke, she waved her hand, asked the horse to stay here, and walked towards Fang's house with the two female disciples on foot.

At this time, Gu Jiu patted Xiao Hui and signaled him to follow.

When she discovered that Gu Jiu was following them, the older female instructor turned around and asked coldly, "What are you doing here?"

Gu Jiu said: "I want to go and see it too."
