Chapter 49 See a ghost again?!

After the woodcutter finished speaking, he no longer looked at Tao Yue'er, and ran away quickly, still muttering the words "The sky is bright, the earth is bright," and "Bodhisattva bless you."

After a while, the woodcutter disappeared into the mountains and fields.

"What's wrong with him?" Tao Yuer'er was surprised.

"Isn't this simple?" Hua Ling raised the corner of her mouth, showing a rare smile, and said calmly: "We are in trouble."

"What the hell!?" Tao Yue'er exclaimed: "Have we seen the ghost again?!

"Yes." Hua Ling was calm and calm, her expression always calm.

Tao Yue'er, on the other hand, had just heard the word "see ghost" and her teeth were chattering. She pulled Hua Ling and ran into the forest, for fear that something would catch up behind her.

As they ran, the sky gradually became dark. The leaves in the forest made a rustling sound, and clusters of branches and leaves swayed like ghost hands. Tao Yue'er became even more nervous.

At this moment, a wooden house appeared in front. There was a fence around the wooden house. The fence was not high, and you could see the small stove in the yard. This must have been the resting place for hunters in the mountains.

Tao Yue'er was panting and walked in with Hua Ling. The room was tangled with cobwebs and had been deserted for a long time, but fortunately there were beds, tables and chairs. With a little renovation, it could be a good place to stay.

Tao Yue'er felt relieved, patted the dusty table in front of her, coughed in the smoke and said, "Let's stay here for now."

"Um."

With Hua Ling's approval, Tao Yue'er took out a handkerchief and put it on the bed. Hua Ling sat on it in a tacit understanding, and the two of them were in a state of enjoyment, and their coordination was flawless.

Hua Ling sat on the bed and crossed her legs.

His back was straight, his chin was slightly pulled back, his eyes were slightly closed, and his face was calm.

This sitting posture is aloof. If he were not in this deserted house, just looking at his expression, he would be like an emperor who is about to rule over Jiuzhou and overlook the three realms.

Dominate Jiuzhou!?

Tao Yue'er frowned in surprise, wondering why such a word came into her mind. She wasn't a literary person either.

"Light the incense." Hua Ling raised her lips slightly and commanded calmly.

Upon receiving the order, Tao Yue'er immediately took out a dilapidated incense stand from his bag, which was exactly the one he had made with clay. Then he lit a plate of incense with a fire stick.

The smoke curled up, and there was a fragrance in the desolation. Suddenly, it became more popular and seemed less lifeless...

That night, Tao Yue'er spread her old clothes on the bed, and the two of them slept in their clothes. They thought they were tired and anxious, but they had no dreams all night.

The next day, Tao Yue'er got up early and prepared to go to the city to find work.

Hua Ling had no intention of getting out of bed from beginning to end, and Tao Yuer had no intention of taking him with her.

In Tao Yue'er's eyes, although he has recovered from his illness, he is not someone who will work for others with low eyebrows. He just needs to work harder.

Before leaving, Hua Ling said: "Be careful and don't get close to the flower tomb."

When Tao Yue'er mentioned the flower tomb, she felt uneasy again.

Hua Ling saw her fear and comforted her: "Don't worry, ghosts don't dare to do evil under the clear sky and in broad daylight."

Tao Yue'er breathed a sigh of relief.

"But..." Hua Ling hesitated, and Tao Yue'er's heart skipped a beat: "But what?"

Hua Ling looked at him with a smile: "But if she is a demon, that's not necessarily the case."

"..."

Tao Yue'er suddenly thought of Shui Sheng's twisted and rotten face, which made her even worse.

She dragged her trembling body and walked in the mountains with fear. It was not until she saw the official road of Jinling City that she finally felt relieved and followed the official road into the city...

At noon, singing and dancing stopped on the Qinhuai River bank, and it was quiet. Tao Yue'er avoided the small building with fan ribbons floating in the air and knocked on the door of a building with black bricks and tiles.

The door creaked open, and an old face peeked out with a fierce gaze.

Tao Yue'er was startled. She had never seen such an old and twisted face, but in order to find a job, she still had to bite the bullet and said with a smile: "May I ask, old man, do you need a handyman in the house? I can endure hardship! What am I?

We can do it all!" When Tao Yue'er spoke, she unconsciously touched her forehead, for fear that her forehead would fall off and expose the tattoo on her forehead.

The old man looked at her for a long time without any reaction.

"I can also cook!" Tao Yuer'er said in a hurry: "What I cook is delicious."

At this time, the old man's eyes lit up. He moved away and opened the door: "Come with me."

"Thank you! Thank you!" Tao Yue'er thanked her repeatedly and stepped through the door.

After entering the door, Tao Yue'er realized what "a house cannot be judged by its appearance".

The dark color is just the color of the exterior walls of the building. Inside, there are several palaces that come in and out, and the whole body is bright yellow. The columns and walls are made of red gold, covered with gems, and white gauze curtains fall from the beams and dance with the wind.

The curtain not only dilutes the tackiness of gold, but also adds a bit of fairy spirit.

However, the atmosphere here is still a bit lewd.

There was a stage behind the screen wall. On the stage, a voluptuous woman in Tsing Yi was dancing. Her dancing steps were graceful and her white gauze was swaying around her body. When she saw Tao Yue'er, her captivating eyes stayed on her.

From then on, no matter what movements she was making, no matter which section she danced to, her eyes were always fixed on Tao Yue'er, without moving for a moment.

This look inexplicably reminded Tao Yuer of Ruan Yanluo.

She didn't dare to look at her anymore, she just lowered her head and followed the old man inside.

There were small huts surrounding the stage, and there was no sound of anyone inside as we walked along.

Tao Yue'er couldn't help but wonder, in broad daylight, where were all the people in such a big house?

The old man led her in and out three times, and finally stopped in front of the three-story building at the end of the mansion. He opened the door and said, "Madam wants to see you, just go in."

"Madam?" Tao Yue'er was stunned: "May I ask if Madam is..."

The old man didn't answer him, turned around and left, disappearing at the end of the corridor in an instant.

Tao Yue'er rubbed her eyes, wondering if she had seen it wrong?

This old man's legs and feet...are really fast.

Tao Yue'er gritted her teeth and walked inside, spiraling up the stairs to the third floor, only to find that the terrace on the third floor had a panoramic view of the Qinhuai River to the east, and a panoramic view of the entire house to the west. The scenery was excellent.

"Girl, who are you from? Why did you come to my Xiuhua Tower?" A pleasant sound came from behind. Tao Yue'er turned around and saw a woman in scarlet clothes walking towards her step by step.

She looks very young, with a twisted waist, as if she has no bones, and a face that is not stained with beauty, but is more alluring than most of the charming women in the world. It is a kind of charm that emanates from the bones.

Tao Yue'er had never seen such a woman before. She hurriedly stood up and saluted: "As for the girl, my surname is Tao and my name is Yue'er. She is from Jingcheng."

"Jingcheng?" The woman in scarlet clothes opened her teeth slightly and was a little surprised: "I don't think she is a local. Otherwise, she would not easily step into Jinghua Tower..."

"Why?"

"Because... they don't like us very much."
