Chapter 25 The Unlucky Ghost
If such a timid person is, he may be frightened by such a sudden and weird sob. If he is a little more courageous, he would probably be shocked and would be difficult to calm down.
However, the person wandering in the house is Su Mo. Not to mention the slight sob, even if a walking skeleton appears in front of him, his expression will not change much.
Because he has really seen such a situation before!
Compared to the strange ancient tombs "developed" by a man named Hu and later Zhang, this house is really not scary at all.
The difference is probably the difference between the haunted house in the park that can enter the haunted house for five to ten yuan and laugh for a while and the top ten haunted houses in the world.
He ignored the sobs coming from somewhere, and Su Mo took a step and stepped directly into the room.
Just as he stepped into the room, the sob suddenly became louder, as if it turned into a sharp scream of a woman, with a heart-wrenching sarcasm.
"It's so noisy, what is it?" Su Mo muttered, turned around and walked out, and walked directly in the direction where the sound came.
Although the sudden increase of the sound just now failed to convey the huge house, Su Mo could slightly hear the direction the source of the sound was in.
Given the idea of exploring this room, Su Mo accelerated his pace and gradually rose to trotting, threw away the candlestick in his hand, and came outside the study door a few seconds later.
Without any hesitation, Su Mo stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the study.
A vague white figure flashed in front of his eyes the moment Su Mo pushed the door. Before Su Mo could see clearly what the white figure was, it completely disappeared.
Su Mo walked into the study and glanced around.
Although his eyesight is not as good as a demon like Arnold, it is much better than that of ordinary people. With the faint light coming in from the window leading to the balcony, Su Mo still saw the whole series of this study.
It looks no different from an ordinary study room. It has a large table and chairs, a large number of bookshelfs, and a variety of books. There is a small open middle area, enough to put a huge dining table that allows more than a dozen people to eat together - just like the table in the first-floor restaurant.
The bookshelf is tightly attached to the wall, and there is no one hidden behind it, unless there is a dark room.
So, where did the white figure that was so vague that just now, like a ghost flashing by?
There is only one entrance in this study, which is the empty door that Su Mo just pushed open. Opposite this door are two floor-to-ceiling wooden-framed glass doors, which directly lead to the wide balcony outside the study.
There is nothing on the balcony now, and the wooden frame glass door is tightly closed, without any sign of being opened.
Apart from Su Mo, there is no other person in this study.
But just now, a blurry white shadow shook past Su Mo's eyes.
From this point of view, the only explanation is that the white figure is not a human, but a ghost.
This Wabus Manor, as others have said, has become a haunted house?
"Oh, fortunately, I experienced the life of a student for a while. Otherwise, I would have been deceived because of my poor study..." Su Mo said to himself, turned around suddenly, rushed out of the study room, rushed into the collection room opposite the study room, and happened to face a pale face directly.
"Are you right... this lady?"
At this time, Su Mo said the second half of the sentence.
However, this pale-faced master could not answer Su Mo's question.
Just a second ago, Su Mo was still in the study, and the next second he had already rushed here.
The ghost lady was obviously startled by Su Mo's ghostly speed, and she couldn't help but retreat, and then she did not stand firmly and fell to the ground.
As it turns out, it is very dangerous to hit the ground with the back of your head.
This ghost lady was not a real ghost body. Her body began to twitch and some white foam surged out of her mouth.
"This is much scarier than just now..." Su Mo smiled and squatted down.
Needless to say, the person in front of me was the blurry white figure that Su Mo had just seen. However, what Su Mo saw just now was not himself, but the shadow reflected on the glass opposite the study door.
That's why it is so blurry and disappears into the closed study in an instant. Because I am not in the study at all, but in the collection room opposite the study.
I have to say that this man acted just right, and ran past Su Mo when he opened the door. At the same time, his steps were so light that he did not make any sound, which was rare.
If Su Mo hadn't been a good student who loved studying at that time, he might have been deceived by knowing that some glass would also reflect light.
This incident tells us how important it is to study hard.
A few minutes later, after simple treatment, although the ghost lady did not wake up and was still in a coma, the convulsions all over her body had disappeared, and there was obviously no danger of life.
Su Mo twisted his fingers and rubbed off the white powder stained on the gloves. These inferior powders came from the face of the ghost lady who was unconscious in front of him - that pale face was certainly not the original skin color of this person.
He stood up again, and before Su Mo was thinking about how to wake up the unconscious person, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, the rapid footsteps falling barefoot on the hard wooden floor.
It is easy to think of a group of naughty kids running around the floor with barefoot.
If these naughty children were still wearing blood on their faces and wearing extremely ragged clothes, they would probably be the most terrifying scene in the world.
This is the scene that Su Mo saw now.
Unfortunately, the acting skills of these naughty children are much worse than those of the ghost lady who has fallen into a coma. The three women and one man and four little guys ran over and wanted to look terrifying.
But the tightly clenched fists and dodging eyes all showed that they were ten thousand times more nervous and afraid than Su Mo, the "scared object".
"I originally thought it was probably the enemy of the Wabs family. Now it seems that I have considered too much." Su Mo shook his head and sighed quietly, "I actually played a boring ghost-catching game with you guys. I think I lost a lot of stubbornness. Shouldn't my opponent be the sinister and vicious and scheming nobles who control this country?"
"I didn't expect to come to the imperial capital... the first problem to be solved is a group of little ghosts pretending to be a terrifying ghost at home."
I remember I don’t know which great man said that a person’s opponent reflects a person’s squeamishness in a sense.
From this perspective, Su Mo's personality is probably the level of these little kids.
How could Su Mo accept this? He could turn the tide under the rejection of the world's will, successfully escape, and fight back against the high-voluntary-gauge man!
So, after the tall and pussy man slapped the butts of the little kids, he locked them in a room with satisfaction along with the unconscious ghost lady.
After that, Su Mo naturally had to find Master Trandon who was still waiting outside.
———
Hilda felt that she was unlucky, so unlucky that she would choke when drinking water - no, she was so unlucky that she could not even drink water sometimes.
As an imperial capital, Hilda has no favoritism for this prosperous and gorgeous city of thorns.
The prosperity, beauty, friendship and all the beauty of this city is only shown to the rich and nobles.
Orphans like Hilda live at the bottom of the imperial capital and only see everything dirty and dark.
New York, the most prosperous city on earth, has chaotic Queens.
In this world, the darkness hidden in the City of Thorns is naturally more and more suffocating.
Although Hilda was able to grow up in such an environment, she was not doing well, but it also showed that she was a dog-tail grass with strong vitality and was much more courageous than ordinary people.
That's why she dared to bring her younger brothers and sisters who were not related by blood and were also struggling to survive at the bottom of the imperial capital to move into this most famous ghost manor in the imperial capital recently.
She even made preparations before moving in. If someone is interested in this manor, she will pretend to be a ghost to scare them. Let those people retreat so that they can stay in this manor for a while.
As for the legendary ghosts seeking life, such rumors can scare those nobles who are pampered and have no dog-tail grass like Hilda.
Even if there are really ghosts who seek life, it will be worth it to sleep in such a luxurious manor for a few nights.
However, man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation.
On the first night when Hilda secretly brought her younger brother and sister to the manor, she didn't even have time to enjoy the soft mattress and quilt that she had never enjoyed in her life.
Su Mo took his young master to "return to his hometown".
Hilda's first night at Wabus Manor was not as beautiful as she thought. Not only did she not have a good sleep on the soft bed, but she did not even play a role in the "scary plan" she had made at the beginning.
At this moment, Hilda felt his hands trembling a little, and a burst of pain came from the back of his head. It must be a big piece of puff there.
However, Hilda did not dare to reach out to touch the back of his head.
Because in front of her, there were two people sitting and standing - to be precise, a noble young master and his housekeeper.
As for why he was so sure, the little ghost had no arrogant expression on his face and the aristocratic aura on his body, Hilda could smell it from afar.
But the guy next to him who was dressed up with a faint smile on his face did not look like those housekeepers Hilda had seen.
But Hilda was sure that this guy was definitely ten thousand times worse than all the noble housekeepers she had ever seen.
