"What is it?" Bai Yu's voice dropped, and he looked at Caiyu coldly.

Caiyu's pale and swollen forehead was already sweating slightly due to fear.

This scene seemed to Bai Yu to be quite contrary to common sense, after all, the other party was a dead person.

Caiyu's head drooped slightly again, her lips pursed, and she said: "The master and his wife have specially given instructions to that place, and you cannot go there now."

"Oh?" When she said this, Bai Yu became even more curious.

From what Caiyu said, there is only one lake in Yincao Town?

Also, if you can’t let yourself go “now”, does that mean you can do it later?
Ah!
Just like what I saw in the nightmare, kill yourself and then send him there?

"Third Miss, I remembered that I still have a few paper mansions that Mrs. Hungry Ghost Festival will use. I have to go and get started!" Caiyu rubbed oil on the soles of her feet, turned around and raised her legs to run.

"Stop." Did I really let you go?
Bai Yu's tone obviously sounded very unhappy.

Caiyu's stiff body was startled, and she raised her right foot to the threshold and paused.

After struggling for half a second, she turned back with an angry look on her face.

After all, who makes the other party the master, while he is just a servant.

Although the third young lady was just brought back not long ago, she had the impression that when she went back to the countryside to visit her adoptive father and mother, she was personally with them all the way. After getting along with her, she felt that she was also a kind and easy-going person.

But who can ensure that she is not pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.

In addition, although the madam and the master are irresistible and majestic in the White House, they are not here now after all.

And if the third lady is offended at this moment, she may be the one who can't eat it first.

And it was too hot to eat and walk around.

Bai Yu snorted coldly from his nostrils and ordered lightly: "Close the door."

Caiyu obeyed and closed the door with a creak.

After closing the door, she still stood at the crack of the door and cautiously glanced a few times into the courtyard.

"Sit down." Bai Yu raised his fingers and tapped the table gently.

"Miss Third, I don't dare." Caiyu lowered her head.

Bai Yu was also a little impatient: "Sit down if I ask you to!"

"Well, I'd rather be respectful to the third lady than obey her orders." Caiyu smiled and sat down opposite Bai Yu.

Bai Yu: What a lot of nonsense.

However, even though she was complaining in her heart, she still poured a glass of water for Caiyu and handed it over: "Tell me, why don't my parents let me go?"

Caiyu took it with both hands, feeling somewhat flattered, and then said with a look of fear:

"Third Miss, I really can't say that. If I do, I will be kicked out of the White Mansion by the master and his wife! After all, in the Bai Mansion, you can get one or two months of silver, which can be used to work in other houses for several months. Third Miss, Please don’t embarrass me.”

Caiyu's eyes turned red, and red tears began to fall down.

She would rather die than lose this job. After all, she was really scared of poverty and hunger.

If Miss Third forced her again, she would have no choice but to kneel down.

Bai Yu looked at Caiyu, whose face was full of blood and tears, and looked terrible, and secretly took a breath:
Fortunately it was daytime, otherwise she would have been sent away directly.

In addition, can the emotions of the dead be so rich?

This dungeon setting is so poisonous and sick!
"Oh? What if I give you this?" She pondered for a second, then deliberately touched her cuff, but actually took out a piece of broken gold from the space.

"This?!" When Caiyu saw it, she rolled up her sleeves and raised her hands to wipe away her tears, her red eyes suddenly widened.

The slightly cloudy dead eyeballs instantly brightened a bit.

If that gold is not fake, it will be worth her lifetime!
After all, she was not of a high rank among the servants of Bai Mansion.

On weekdays, I often suffer from anger.

That is to say, for these five buckets of rice, I had to bear the humiliation and bear the burden and move forward. "Miss Third, is this for me?" Caiyu was a little disbelieving. She subconsciously reached halfway towards the gold nugget, then quickly retracted it with a "whoosh".

Bai Yu smiled, pushed the gold to her, and said, "Yes, it's for you. You keep it."

Caiyu struggled for a second, pursed her lips tightly, then reached out and took the gold nugget in her hand with a determined look:

"Third Miss, you are my living parents. Your great kindness and virtue, and the grace of knowing me and meeting you, will definitely be repaid by a spring of water - ah, no, I must repay you with death!" After Caiyu finished speaking, she looked at the golden gold in her hand. Block, his eyes began to shine crazily.

The gold!
This is gold! !
This is heavy gold! ! !

Bai Yu even felt her body trembling with excitement.

That pale, rotten little round face felt like it was glowing red.

Well, sure enough, money is a good thing at any time.

Bai Yu: "Try it."

After hearing this, Caiyu smiled sheepishly, and then took a bite in front of Bai Yu.

Looking at the tooth marks on the golden edge, Caiyu's heart almost soared.

She carefully put away the gold nugget, took a few deep breaths to calm herself down as much as possible, and then lowered her voice and said:
"Third Miss, I only know a few things. I will tell you everything I know, but I hope you can keep it a secret for me. Don't tell the master and his wife that I said it."

Bai Yu curled his lips: "Of course."

Caiyu stood up, went to the crack in the door and looked outside, then sat back and continued:

"Third Miss, our Yin Cao Town has one and only one lake, not far from the White House. Behind the White House, there is a dense forest. Behind the dense forest, there is a mountain called Yin Mountain, and the lake is on the top of the mountain."

Bai Yu was stunned: "The top of the mountain?"

When she came yesterday, she didn't notice that there was a mountain near Bai Zhai.

Unless the mountain itself is not high.

Of course, it could also be that when I came back yesterday, it was very dark and there were dense forests, so I didn't notice it, which is normal.

"Yes. It is said that there was no lake in Yinshan Mountain at the earliest. This lake was formed several years ago when the sky was furious and a fire broke out. Then, a sinkhole was created. The sinkhole accumulated over time and filled up with water, and this lake was formed. .

The lake is called Hanquan Lake. It is frozen all year round and the water is bitingly cold. It is said that evil spirits live at the bottom of the lake.Next to it, there is a temple called Hanquan Temple, which was built to guard the evil spirit. "

"Sky Fire?? Evil Spirit??" Bai Yu's face was calm, but there was a "thump" in his heart.

The lake is frozen all year round, which is very consistent with what she encountered in her nightmare. Is it just a coincidence?

As for evil spirits?
Are the blood-stained runes he saw in his nightmares used to guard evil spirits?
How to explain so many severely damaged bodies of Bai Xiwei?

Caiyu: "Well, maybe we people have done something wrong. If God wants to punish us, he will send down the sky fire."

Bai Yu: "."

In her opinion, many natural disasters in ancient times were considered to be punishments from God due to the underdevelopment of science and the ignorance of humans at that time.

This sky fire can create a crater. Excluding the theory of ghosts and gods, there is a high probability that it is only natural phenomena such as meteorites.

However, most meteorites actually burn to ashes or reduce to small rocks before entering the atmosphere.

Those that can carry fire are not small in size.

In addition, it can smash a crater into a mountain. The material of this meteorite is a bit strange.

"Although there is an evil spirit at the bottom of the lake, no one has ever seen it. But there are rumors that the evil spirit will come out once every 18 years. And when it comes out, it is during the Hungry Ghost Festival.

ah!Third lady!Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered the old lady this morning." Caiyu stopped speaking mid-sentence, covering her mouth with her hands and her eyes became frightened again.

Bai Yu stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, and said in a deep voice, "Caiyu, don't half-speak."

This little maid was obviously a dead person, yet she was still shocked.

If it weren't for the rotten aura, pale face, and blood and tears just now, she would have suspected that the appraisal skill given by the system was a random mark to kill people.

Caiyu reached out to cover her frantically heaving chest, and muttered with lingering fear:
"Madam said this morning, Miss Third, your real birthday is on the Ghost Festival, so. So." (End of Chapter)
