Mu Qianqian was startled, and subconsciously exclaimed: "You, how did you know?"
As soon as the words came out, she immediately covered her mouth, feeling annoyed at herself.
Lu Ning's face suddenly changed, and he slammed the table angrily: "Who the hell are you! He likes to play with other people's emotions so much!"
When she confirmed that the person who sent Mu Qianqian to sow discord between herself and Hu Qi was none other than King Yi, her last memory of King Yi disappeared.
In addition to being disappointed, I was even more angry.
She didn't understand why she couldn't get King Yi's sincerity after all her efforts, but when she gave up completely, he kept pestering her.
He refuses to take responsibility for his emotions, but he doesn't want to choose another man.
Lu Ning felt uncomfortable in his heart, as if he had taken a sour and bitter medicine.
She has always been a person who dares to love and hate. She doesn't like to pester others, nor does she like to be pestered by others.
But now King Yi's behavior made her even begin to wonder if she had fallen in love with the wrong person in the first place!
Mu Qianqian saw that Lu Ning was in a bad mood, so she quickly sat over and whispered, "Hey, don't blame me! They are so generous, it's hard for anyone to resist!"
Lu Ning stared at her with cold eyes and spoke without mercy: "Mu Qianqian, you keep saying all day long that thieves are also good! When did you pay attention to the aisles again?"
Mu Qianqian smiled, came to her side, and said to please her: "Don't be angry! Think about it, being pursued by two such powerful people, and them being so generous for you, shows that they all care about you.
I like you! This is something that not many women would envy! How about this, you tell me which one you like, and I will help you match up, okay? Since we are friends, I will charge you less.
!」
Lu Ning's almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened, and his face was filled with shock and anger: "You Mu Qianqian, you are planning on me again? Are you so blind to money?"
Mu Qianqian put on a flattering look on her face, and said with a playful smile: "Brothers still have to settle accounts! I, Mu Qianqian, am good at stealing things, and even more powerful at pulling strings! Your caravan family has a big business, spend a little money, and exchange for a lifetime of happiness, or not
It’s a great deal!」
Lu Ning turned away and ignored her completely: "You treat my life-long events like commodities, and I don't have friends like you in my class!"
----------------------------------------
The dark night seemed like endless thick ink, heavily smeared on the sky, not even the glimmer of stars.
Inside the hotel, there was nothing but silence.
Lu Ning and Mu Qianqian were lying side by side, one on the left and the other on the right.
Both of them stared at the boundless darkness in a daze without saying a word. It seemed that no one was sleepy.
There were a few crows hanging on the branches outside the house, making a noisy noise.
The whole room was filled with an atmosphere of panic. Even if one person turned over slightly, another person would sit up in shock.
Lu Ning stared at the window paper illuminated by the moonlight, lost in thought.
Suddenly, a figure appeared on the window paper, as if someone was standing outside the window, peeping at everything inside the house.
Lu Ning sat up in surprise, and when he saw Mu Qianqian sitting up too, he quickly said "Shh" and gestured to her to go take a look.
Immediately, she took out a dagger from under the pillow and crept to the window.
She glanced at the figure on the window paper again, and then with lightning speed, she pushed open the window.
But a gust of wind passed by, and there was nothing outside the window except the swaying branches and jackdaws flying in the sky.
The sound gradually stopped and everything returned to calm.
Mu Qianqian quickly ran over and leaned out of the window to take a look: "Did you see who it was?"
Lu Ning looked at the boundless darkness and said coldly: "This inn must have a secret! It seems we have to find that inn to ask!"
The night was thick and dark, and the young Yichen walked back from outside drunkenly. He was holding a wine bottle in one hand and humming a little tune. He seemed to be in a good mood.
He suddenly heard a sound of footsteps approaching from behind.
But when I looked back several times, I found that the long, silent street was empty.
He shook his drunken head, thinking that he must have drank too much and was hallucinating!
Suddenly, a figure flashed past in front of his eyes.
Yicheng finally stood still, shook his head again, and looked forward intently, but still couldn't see anyone. He continued to take a few steps suspiciously, and the black shadow flashed past again.
Yicheng was so frightened that his legs went weak. He couldn't help but kneel down, clasped his hands together, and begged for mercy in a tearful voice: "Spare my life! Spare my life! I have an old mother above me and a child below me! Don't kill me! This matter has nothing to do with me.
I don’t know anything and I’ve never done anything!”
Suddenly there was a giggling sneer in the darkness, which sounded like a woman.
Yi Cheng was so frightened that he turned around and ran away.
But a man walked out in the moonlight and stopped him in the street. The man was dressed in white as snow and his face was like a crown of jade.
He shook the folding fan lightly and said with a faint smile: "You really are hiding something from us!"
Yi Cheng took a closer look and saw that the person was actually Hu Qi. He screamed inwardly and immediately turned around to run away. However, his retreat was blocked by another person. This person's red dress was like a fire and his features were picturesque. It was Lu Ning.
Yicheng was frightened again and again, and his knees immediately weakened, and he knelt down and begged for mercy: "Two heroes, please spare your lives! Today is a small neglect! I know my mistake, and I will never dare to do it again!"
Lu Ning smiled slightly, pulled out the shining dagger, put it against his Adam's apple, and said quietly: "As long as you tell me everything you know, I will spare your life, otherwise..."
Yi Cheng looked at the gleaming dagger, and the blood in his body ran cold: "Whatever the heroine wants to ask, I will definitely tell you everything!"
Lu Ning and Hu Qi looked at each other, and then asked calmly: "There is a person peeking outside our window tonight, do you know who that person is?"
Yi Cheng was startled and hesitantly said: "That...that is...is..."
The dagger in Lu Ning's hand came closer, and his tone became more serious: "Hurry up and say it! Do you want me to slit your throat?!"
Hu Qi also squatted down and played the drums with a smile: "I heard that if your throat is slashed, you won't die immediately. You can only twitch and watch the blood spurt out from your throat. Until you see the blood all over your body.
You have to bleed dry before you die. It’s so miserable! Do you want to try it?”
Yicheng's expression changed, he simply gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, our Daming Mansion has been haunted since half a year ago! All the people in the city who could hide away have left, and the rest who can't leave will be gone soon.
If you are afraid, close the door and lock it, and never go out! The one the heroine saw... must be the female ghost!"
Lu Ning glanced at Hu Qi, frowned and said, "Female ghost? What on earth is going on?"
Yi Cheng sighed deeply and had no choice but to tell the strange things that happened in Daming Mansion:
In the town lived two siblings, Feng Zhilan and Feng Laiyi. They had neither father nor mother and lived in a very remote place.
On weekdays, the two siblings are taciturn, rarely go out, and rarely interact with their neighbors. No one knows much about their family affairs.
One day half a year ago, Lord Wu, the prefect of Daming Prefecture, suddenly led his men to surround the home of the two siblings.
But the siblings hid in the house and refused to come out. They had hidden weapons hidden on their bodies, and any soldiers who rushed in were injured by the hidden weapons.
Master Wu had no choice but to order people to set fire to the house, hoping to force the two siblings to come out and surrender.
Unexpectedly, the two siblings would rather die than obey, and were burned alive in the house. They were burned into a pile of ashes, and not even their bones could be found.
From then on, strange things began to happen in Daming Mansion:
Because the siblings died tragically, and their place was too remote, few people would go there, and it gradually became a ruin.
Until one day, a drunk man ran into the ruins for some unknown reason and slept there all night.
The next day, he went crazy and ran naked around the town all day, telling everyone he saw that the ruins were haunted! But everyone saw that he was crazy and didn't take it seriously!
The strange things did not stop, but intensified.
One day, the crazy drunkard suddenly fell to the side of the road and died suddenly. When he died, his face was ferocious, his mouth was wide open, and his eyes were bulging, as if he was scared to death!
But because he was a homeless man, the government hastily collected the body and did not continue to pursue it.
Subsequently, strange things began to happen in the town, which gradually attracted people's attention:
It is said that people often sleep until midnight and are woken up by the cool breeze. When they open their eyes, they see a woman with a strange smile, standing on the bedside with her head tilted and murmuring in a vague voice: "
Give me back my life!"
Others said that when they went to the toilet in the middle of the night, they squatted down and saw a female ghost hanging upside down in front of their eyes. She still had a weird smile on her face and murmured: "Give me my life!"
There are also several bachelors who claimed that when they went to bed at night, when they lifted the quilt, they found the female ghost lying upright on the quilt, constantly sneering at them, and still shouting: "Give me back my life!"
The strange haunting incident spread in the city for a while, and the news spread faster and faster, and the news spread more and more.
All the female ghosts in the story, without exception, have long hair hanging down their waists, a tattered white dress, and a burnt face, with a creepy smile always hanging on their faces...
The common people were troubled by the hauntings and ran to the government offices one after another, asking Lord Wu to invite eminent monks to save the brothers and sisters.
But Mr. Wu did not believe in evil. Not only did he drive away the people who came to pray, he also ordered people to raze the place where the siblings once lived to the ground.
After that day, the mansion began to be haunted by ghosts - all the female relatives in the mansion were harassed by female ghosts every night.
One day, Master Wu's concubine was combing her hair in the mirror when she saw a female ghost sneering behind her. She was so frightened that she died suddenly the next day.
When Mr. Wu's wife was sleeping, she saw a female ghost sitting next to her crying. She was so frightened that she became paralyzed and has been bedridden since then.
The most miserable person is Mr. Wu’s daughter.
One time when she was taking a bath, she saw a female ghost hiding in the water. She was frightened and went crazy! She ran around the house naked all day long, muttering, "This is evil, and you will suffer for it."
!」
Mr. Wu had no choice but to lock the good-looking young girl in the room all day long, and did not dare to let her out again.
