Ghostly Tomb

Chapter 251 Strange Cry
The plants in this yard are different. In other yards, some decorative flowers and plants are planted, but here most of them are grain and fruit trees. A row of small trees are planted along the courtyard wall. These trees Although it is small, it exudes a smell like vanilla, which smells refreshing and can purify the air. After the meaty smell outside floats to the vicinity of the yard, it can no longer come in. Like a natural protective wall.

At this time, Chen Zhi took a closer look into the courtyard, and found that the layout of the courtyard was designed. At first glance, it looked like an ordinary residential courtyard, but upon closer inspection, a pickaxe, a water tank, and a wooden The pots, and even the positions of the flowers and plants all imply the formation of Qimen Dunjia.

The style of the houses in this area is also different from other places. It is very similar to the folk houses in the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasties. The small houses in the yard are very delicate and clean. Although the walls are also made of white jade, they are no longer decorated with jewels and eye-catching. dazzling.The small house is a two-story structure, the door on the first floor is open, but the upper windows of the attic on the second floor are all nailed with wooden boards, no windows are exposed, and it looks airtight.

"There are some problems with this house," Chen Zhi whispered to Ghost Saber. "Let's go in and have a look."

With the current situation, everyone can't go out of the yard for the time being, and the stone is in a bad state, so Chen Zhi asked everyone to rest in the yard first and hide for a while.He himself called Pang Wei, and entered the house with Ghost Dao.

As soon as he stepped into the door of the house, Chen Zhi could only feel the strong smell of vanilla coming to his nostrils. He saw a bead of strange grass fairy vines hanging on the door rail, with clusters of bright red fruits on it, drooping like coral beans. When it comes down, it exudes a strong vanilla smell, which completely isolates the meaty smell.

The layout of the room is really elegant. A sea dragon lantern made of silver thread is hung from the ceiling, and a huge night pearl is inlaid on it, illuminating the room as bright as day.In the middle of the room is a plain screen made of nanmu with white gauze and gold silk, and there is only a set of white porcelain tea bowls on the table, which is a typical style of the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasties.

Everyone was about to enter the inner room to take a look, when Ghost Knife suddenly held the handle of the knife, and said in a low voice vigilantly, "Be careful, there are people upstairs."

Ghost Saber's words startled both Chen Zhi and Fat Wei, and they looked up at the same time.

"Is there someone? Is it possible that there are living people in such a ghostly place?" As soon as Fat Wei said this, he heard a soft cry from upstairs.

"Woo~ woo~ woo~", "Woo~ woo~ woo~"

The cry was whimpering, vague, and it sounded like a woman crying.

Chen Zhi's nerves immediately tensed up. In this deathly silent city, there shouldn't be any living things, so what would be the thing crying on it now?Is it a demigod?Still, ghost?
"Woo~ woo~ woo~", "Woo~ woo~ woo~"

The crying upstairs was getting louder, desolate and melodious, very sad, it seemed that they were crying to them on purpose to attract them to go over.

"Let's go, since everyone has sent invitations, let's go up and have a look!" Fat Wei said with a smile, turned around and walked upstairs.

"Wait a minute," Chen Zhi lowered his voice, and grabbed Pang Wei.

"Don't be in a hurry to go up, have you ever thought about what will be on it? Let's go out to discuss it first, and make plans! Don't be too reckless."

"What could it be? It's not a human anyway," Fat Wei said with a smile, "Cheng Zi, haven't you prepared yourself yet? Since we've all entered this kind of place, if we meet a goblin or something, Nothing unusual."

After Fat Wei finished speaking, he took out the shiny Da Kaishan from the leather knife bag and pressed it to his side, gestured to Ghost Knife, Hao climbed up the stairs without hesitation, Ghost Knife followed closely behind him, Chen Zhi After hesitating for a while, he followed.

The stairs here are the simple ones in ancient times. In fact, it is a wooden ladder. People need to use both hands and feet to climb up. Where the feet step, the ladder creaks and creaks, and it is impossible to do it quietly. live.

And the crying upstairs was not affected by this sound, it was still crying loudly, the voice was so gloomy that it made people get goosebumps all over.

The second floor is different from the first floor, the layout is small, it looks like a woman's boudoir, the furnishings in the boudoir are exquisite, the walls are hung with luminous pearl lighting, a wooden couch is directly in front of it, and the couch is covered with brocade matte In front of the couch, there is a carved wooden table with a sapphire incense burner. The innermost part of the room is a wooden embroidered bed with a green gauze curtain hanging on it and colorful silk ribbons on both sides. Next to the curtain is a wooden bed. Made wardrobes.

And the woman's crying sound came slowly from the closet.

A few people gathered around the door of the closet and watched for a while, there was no other movement in the closet except crying. At this moment, Ghost Knife drew out the long knife and gave Fat Wei a wink.

Fat Wei understood, turned sideways and hid beside the closet, stretched out his hand and yanked open the closet door.

The crying stopped suddenly, and a woman's white face was seen emerging from the closet.

This woman looks very delicate, she looks seventeen or eighteen years old, her skin is fine and white, her eyebrows are like ink painting, her face is like a peach petal, her eyes are full of tears, she is wearing a long gown and silk skirt that is common in the Yuan Dynasty, and a green inlaid skirt is tied around her waist. Treasure belt, with white bead flowers on her head.

But when the woman saw them, she was full of surprise and panic, hid behind the cabinet door with tears in her eyes, and said in a strange voice, "You guys, who are you?"
"You asked who we are, and we want to ask who you are?" Fat Wei said with a smile, "Big sister, I said let's stop acting in Liaozhai here! Don't pretend to be afraid like this , you are a ghost, a god, a fox fairy or something, if you have supernatural powers, just use them!"

"How do you know I'm a Fox Immortal?" The woman's eyes were full of tears, she said in a panic. "Do you know my husband? Did he ask you to save me?"

"Your husband, who is your husband?" At this moment, Fat Wei seemed to feel that the woman's reaction was very interesting, pointing to Chen Zhi and asking. "Is your husband him?"

"Presumptuous!", the woman suddenly said angrily, "My husband is Ren Quan, a third-rank official in the court, and I am his first wife, so don't be rude."

Hearing the word Ren Quan, Chen Zhi's head buzzed immediately.

The name Ren Quan was too familiar to Chen Zhi.Before coming to Shandong, on the information about the tomb of the gods that Lao Dou Dou showed him, the name of the Shandong official who recorded "Family Trivia" was Ren Quan.

He was born in the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasties. He described in his "Family Notes" that he had several romantic relationships with a woman named Qing'e when he was young.That Qing'e once told him that she was a fox fairy, advised Ren Quan's family to escape from this place as soon as possible, and gave him a pearl as a gift.

After Ren Quan obtained his fame in the examination, he couldn't find Qing'e when he went to look for her again, so he recorded this matter in "Family Notes". (For details, read Chapter 190, The Tomb of the Fox God—The Disappeared Village)

"You said your husband's name is Ren Quan, so what's your name?" Chen Zhi immediately looked at the woman vigilantly and asked.

The woman blinked her eyes, looked at Chen Zhi, and said without hesitation, "My name is Qing'e."
