Bai Mo walked and found that he seemed to have lost track.
Instead of following Lu Zhan, he walked to a very strange place.
Of course, everything in the Hidden Beast Mountain was unfamiliar to him, but the thing in front of him was really too unfamiliar to him——
It was an old house that looked quite old, hidden deep in the woods. Two stone lions stood on both sides of the house door, and two big red lanterns hung on both sides.
There is a plaque hanging on the door of the house, but the writing is too complicated for Bai Mo to understand.
He was dumbfounded.
An old house in the deep forest, stone lions, red lanterns, plaques with traditional Chinese characters...
Have I traveled through time?
And even Xia Yuxi is missing.
The door of the old house was not closed tightly, so Bai Mo quickly saw a figure flashing through the door, and his expression was even weirder——
This guy is clearly dressed in ancient costume. I can't really travel through time, right?
He was confused, but his mood felt a little better inexplicably. If nothing else, it at least meant that there was someone on the mountain, and that was enough.
Thinking of this, he walked to the door of the house and knocked on the door, but no one answered. After calling several times to no avail, he had no choice but to open the door and go in.
The courtyard was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, as if they were preparing for some happy event, but there was no one there. Bai Mo searched for a long time, but even the figure he saw at first seemed to have disappeared.
The house was too big and antique, with many wing rooms, but it was a bit gloomy. Bai Mo wandered around, but he didn't see anyone.
Just when he thought there was no one in this place, he happened to hear a sound.
Bai Mo was overjoyed and quickly ran towards the direction of the sound and saw a room.
The door was not closed, so he walked forward and saw several figures. He was overjoyed and was about to speak out, but a big hand suddenly appeared and covered his mouth.
What's going on?
Bai Mo was startled, and immediately thought of the murderer Xia Yuxi mentioned. Turning his eyes, he saw a man with an indifferent expression appearing next to him.
There was a long-haired woman standing next to the man, looking at him warily. After looking at him for a moment, she shook her head slightly at the man.
Seeing this, the man let go of his hand, put his index finger between his lips, and made a silencing gesture towards Bai Mo.
Bai Mo was dumbfounded, what kind of trick is this?
However, he felt that this man and woman were not murderers and had no ill intentions, so out of curiosity, he decided to see what kind of medicine these two guys were selling.
He didn't make a sound, just imitating the behavior of the man and woman, standing at the door and silently watching everything in the room.
There were two men and one woman in the study, both dressed in ancient costumes. They didn't seem to notice the three people outside the door, but were minding their own business.
A scholar in white clothes was sitting by the window, flipping through a book. He seemed so absorbed in reading that he didn't notice the other two people walking into the study room.
"Brother Xiao Yu, how much do I owe you?" A thin man walked up to the desk and asked.
Xiao Yu didn't even raise his head, keeping his eyes on the book, and replied casually: "One hundred and thirty-six yuan and fifty cents. By the way, there is also a bottle of green tea, three yuan, totaling one hundred and thirty-nine yuan and fifty cents."
Bai Mo outside the door became happy when he heard this. This guy's skill in playing ancient people needs to be improved. Is this how money was calculated in ancient times?
The next step is to take out your mobile phone and transfer money, right?
He continued to watch, and saw the thin man nodding dully, while the other woman in green put her forehead on her forehead and smiled bitterly, as if she didn't know what to say.
"for you."
After a while, the man took out a banknote and handed it to Xiao Yu, then stood there without moving.
Xiao Yu took the banknote, rubbed it for a moment and suddenly frowned. After glancing at the banknote, his face instantly turned pale.
"Ming coins?" Xiao Yu quickly stood up and backed away, saying angrily, "Brother Han Mu, what do you mean?"
Han Mu's face was expressionless, which was very different from the lively and active Han Mu in Xiao Yu's mind.
He stared directly at Xiao Yu and said coldly: "Brother Xiao Yu, I have been taking care of you all these years, so I am bringing you and I together today."
"Where to meet?"
"Of course we will meet in the underworld." Han Mu said sadly.
Xiao Yu thought Han Mu was joking, but after seeing what he looked like, he couldn't help but retreat quietly.
"where are you going?"
At this moment, a cold voice sounded beside him, making his heart tremble.
Turning her head, she saw a pale Xu Lan tilting her head and glaring at him. What was even more frightening was that at some point, there were suddenly a few blood stains on her face, just like blood dripping from her eyes.
"ah!"
Xiao Yu turned pale with fright, backed away repeatedly, suddenly covered his left chest, and fell to the ground with a painful look on his face.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Seeing Xiao Yu fall to the ground in fright, Xu Lan immediately covered her mouth and laughed, but the makeup on her face made her smile look a little ferocious.
Han Mu, who had looked indifferent just now, couldn't hold it in any longer. He laughed out loud and almost burst into tears: "Brother Xiao Yu is so brave that he fainted from fear."
The two laughed for a while, but Xiao Yu never responded.
Seeing this, Xu Lan suddenly worried: "Is anything going to happen to Xiao Yu..."
"No." Han Mu stopped smiling and said to her, "This kid is almost obsessed with reading. He has to 'relax' once in a while."
Seeing Han Mu's nonchalant look, Xu Lan was worried. She raised her skirt and squatted down, shaking Xiao Yu's body and shouting.
"Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu!"
She shouted several times, but Xiao Yu never responded at all, as if he had completely lost consciousness. Seeing this, Han Mu, who had always been calm, couldn't help but change his expression.
A terrible thought came to Xu Lan's mind, so she carefully stretched out her fingers and probed Xiao Yu's breath.
"ah!"
The next second, her hands shrank like an electric shock, and she rolled away from Xiao Yu.
"He...he's not breathing..."
"What?" Han Mu's face suddenly turned pale, "How is that possible!"
Xu Lan's eyes were dull and she muttered to herself: "What should I do... we killed someone..."
Han Mu looked at Xiao Yu who was lying on the ground, and then at Xu Lan who was sobbing silently, and he suddenly felt confused.
For a long time, he felt nervous, rushed to Xu Lan and shouted: "Remember, this is just an accident. None of us came to the study tonight, do you understand?"
Xu Lan seemed to be in a trance. When she heard this, she seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. She nodded repeatedly, and her face glowed again.
"Then let's leave quickly." Han Mu took a long breath, "Don't let anyone discover us."
"Um……"
Xu Lan nodded, stood up and was about to leave, but her eyes caught the face of Xiao Yu who was lying on the ground. Her legs suddenly went weak and she fell to the ground again, her expression extremely frightened.
"What's wrong? It's too late if you don't leave!" Seeing Xu Lan's look, Han Mu was anxious and angry, and shouted in a low voice.
"Just now... Xiao Yu's eyes were closed just now..."
Xu Lan was trembling all over, even her voice was trembling, she was obviously frightened by something.
Han Mu became impatient. Who knew if someone would come to the study later? If they were discovered, it would be over, so he immediately replied: "Nonsense, if you don't close your eyes after death, why should you keep them open!"
"But...but..." Xu Lan raised her finger tremblingly and pointed at Xiao Yu, hesitating and unable to speak.
"Look, see for yourself!"
Han Mu turned his head impatiently and looked in the direction Xu Lan pointed.
But it doesn’t matter if you don’t look at it. One look at him and he almost loses his balance——
Xiao Yu, whose eyes should have been closed, suddenly widened his eyes and stared at him!
"Go quickly!"
Han Mu was heartbroken and quickly pulled Xu Lan to make plans. However, because Xiao Yu fell to the ground near the door, the two of them had to pass by Xiao Yu's body when they left.
Han Mu recited "Amitabha" countless times in his heart, but just as he was about to walk out of the study, a cold arm suddenly grabbed his ankle!
It’s Xiao Yu!
"ah!"
Han Mu was so frightened that he sat on the ground and didn't even have the strength to stand up. "I'm sorry, Brother Xiao Yu, I didn't mean it. Please don't look for me..."
Xiao Yu's eyes widened and he stared at Han Mu with a stern smile on his face.
This scene frightened Han Mu even more, but maybe because he was frightened, he couldn't take his foot out of Xiao Yu's hand no matter what.
"You're like this and you still want to scare me?"
Just when Han Mu was despairing and thought he was going to pay for Xiao Yu's life, Xiao Yu let go of his hand, stood up and laughed.
"Hahaha!"
Xu Lan also changed her frightened look and pointed at Han Mu and laughed, "It's so funny. Han Mu, the way you looked just now really made me laugh to death!"
She imitated Han Mu's expression just now, and then burst into laughter again.
When Han Mu realized that he had been tricked, he suddenly felt ashamed and angry. But when he thought that Xiao Yu was not dead, he didn't know whether to be happy or angry. He said angrily: "You two teamed up to scare me?"
Xiao Yu patted the dust on his body and said with a smile: "You scared me first. If Xu Lan hadn't winked at me in advance when she came in, I would have been scared to death by you."
Xu Lan laughed so hard that she was out of breath. She blinked at Han Mu and said, "How about it? I did a pretty good job, right?"
Han Mu muttered and stood up, and glanced at Xu Lan helplessly.
"There are so few people in the house today."
Xu Lan finally stopped laughing, took out a mirror, wiped her face, and said casually.
"I heard that someone got married, but it doesn't matter. It's a rare quiet time."
Xiao Yu returned to the desk slowly and opened the book again.
Han Mu found it a bit strange. There were not many people in the entire mansion today. It always felt weird.
He thought for a moment and said a little embarrassedly: "Um, which one of you can accompany me to the library?"
"Why," Xu Lan said teasingly, "is our big man still scared?
Han Mu nodded awkwardly and admitted frankly: "It's a bit."
"I won't go." Xiao Yu said without raising his head while looking at the book.
Xu Lan whispered "bookworm" and then said to Han Mu, "Let's go to the library."
Han Mu nodded happily and walked towards the door with Xu Lan.
At this moment, Xiao Yu seemed to have remembered something and suddenly said to the two of them: "Wait a minute, I just want to go to the library to borrow two books, so let's go together."
Bai Mo followed him with a strange expression.
library?
I'm not a college student. Which library should I go to?
For some reason, the mansion was unusually quiet today, and the footsteps of the three people overlapped in the campus, making it very noisy.
"Have you heard," Han Mu's voice sounded quietly in the darkness, "many strange things have happened in the house before..."
"Come on." Xiao Yu sighed helplessly and said, "Do you still want to scare us?"
When Han Mu heard this, he felt a little embarrassed. He really wanted to regain his "spot", but the two of them didn't take the bait.
"Xiao Yu," Xu Lan asked suddenly as if she hadn't heard Han Mu's words, "Didn't you just want to go to the library? Why did you suddenly remember to go with us?"
Han Mu chuckled and said, "You don't know this nerd yet, he's probably..."
At this moment, a very magical ringtone interrupted his words. He smiled awkwardly and took out his mobile phone from his arms to answer the call.
Bai Mo, who was behind everyone, was suddenly startled, and then almost laughed out loud.
Mobile phone? You actually took out your fucking mobile phone. Are you really going to use your mobile phone to transfer money later?
Let me tell you something, you are somewhat sorry for the ancient costume you are wearing...
He complained in his mind, maybe these guys got the wrong script, which led to the conspiracy?
"Hello?"
Right in front of him, a thin man named Han Mu was still performing hard. He was listening to it for a long time with his mobile phone, but it seemed as if he didn't hear any sound. He asked doubtfully, "Who are you? Talk!"
He thought the other party had made a wrong call and was about to hang up, but when he saw the phone screen, he was stunned.
"Whose phone number?"
After a while, Xu Lan spoke, her voice sounded a little strange.
I couldn't see her expression clearly in the night, and I didn't know if it was an illusion. The temperature around her seemed to have suddenly dropped a few points.
Seeing that Han Mu didn't reply for a long time, Xiao Yu glanced at the screen of his mobile phone and his scalp suddenly went numb.
The name of the contact on the mobile phone is not unfamiliar, it is just two words.
