The power pet is reborn, the cute wife

Chapter 315 Opening the coffin and catching ghosts

At night, Bai Ruoxi's alarm bell rang, maybe because of the high vigilance outside, everyone woke up instantly.

"You're all awake, I'm still thinking about how to call you guys." Bai Ruoxi didn't know when she woke up, she seemed to have been standing at the door for a while now.

"Miss, you said we have something to do tonight and let us sleep during the day, so why should we go tonight." Everyone got up from the ground one by one, looking at Bai Ruoxi with a puzzled expression.

"Catch ghosts." Bai Ruoxi looked at them and asked whether she was surprised or not.

"Catch...catch ghosts?" Hearing Bai Ruoxi's words, someone stuttered and asked.

"Yes, although you didn't see them with your own eyes last night, you must have greeted them in your dream. How about we meet them tonight?"

Bai Ruoxi smiled brightly and asked for their opinions.

"How do you catch this ghost? Can people catch ghosts?"

"That's right. I haven't heard of people being able to catch ghosts. They are invisible. Where can we catch them?"

"Miss, are you joking? Although there are many of us, none of us are Taoist priests, and none of us know how to catch ghosts."

……

After listening to Bai Ruoxi's words, everyone seems to have different opinions on catching ghosts, but the general meaning is that they don't know how to catch ghosts, and they don't know how to catch ghosts. Since they are ghosts, they must not be able to catch them. .

"Who told you to catch a real ghost? I'm talking about a fake ghost. If my guess is correct, the cough you heard last night should be human.

We have also been here for two days, and we have not seen a single person. If there is anyone here, they must be very familiar with this place, so we still have to find someone and ask about the situation here. "

Bai Ruoxi looked at them amusedly, and explained with a peaceful attitude.

"It turned out to be a fake ghost, I just said~"

"Yeah, I was taken aback."

"You mean that there are other living people in this village besides us, but he is familiar with the terrain and environment here, and has been avoiding us, so we didn't see him."

Allen interrupted the discussion of his subordinates, and asked Bai Ruoxi seriously.

"Yes, that's basically what it means. There are no fireworks here at all, and it's very dark. Since he can live here, I think he's not only familiar with this villa, but he should be very familiar with the whole place.

Aren't we always looking for the entrance of the saints, and we have no clue when we get here, so if someone can lead us to find the entrance of the saints, that would be great. "

Bai Ruoxi was very sure that there were other people here, and they were still here, otherwise she wouldn't have a big night, thinking about catching ghosts with them.

"Since this is the case, let's act. I can't wait to see what kind of people are hiding here."

Ashin said to Bai Ruoxi very excitedly.

"Take the guy and go to the main house with me." Bai Ruoxi smiled with mockery in her eyes.

"Let's go, catch ghosts~"

Knowing that what she was going to catch was not a real ghost, they were all very excited and not afraid at all.

Everyone went to the main house together, pushed open the door of the main house, and saw nine coffins neatly placed inside the panels. Those who had never been to the main house couldn't help shivering.

The black night seems to be more completely dark in places where there is no human habitation. The hazy moonlight shrouds the night, adding a lot of mystery to the night.

"Miss, didn't you mean to catch ghosts, why did you bring us to the main house?" Allen looked at Bai Ruoxi, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Catch ghosts." The corners of Bai Ruoxi's mouth couldn't help but widen.

"There's no ghost here. Miss, there's no place to hide in this room except for the coffin." Ashin looked at all the furnishings in the room and said with certainty.

"You're right, it's in this coffin." Bai Ruoxi said calmly with a deep smile in her eyes.

"You don't want us to lift the coffin boards again, do you?" Hearing Bai Ruoxi's voice, Allen asked loudly very unsteadily.

"Hush~ Keep your voice down. Although it's a big night, you have to be polite when you lift someone's coffin, you know." education way.

"It's scary to lift someone's coffin board at night." Allen took out a flashlight from his bag and ordered the others to turn on the flashlight as well.

Although it is much brighter now, the surrounding area still looks gloomy.

"Not at night, but during the day, you're not afraid of cheating." Bai Ruoxi looked at him with a smile, and asked naturally.

"Aren't you afraid of fraudulent corpses at night?" Allen shook his head, he really couldn't compare, is there still time for fraudulent corpses?

"How could you cheat at night? They all came back to sleep obediently at night, so I guarantee that every coffin you open now will contain someone." Bai Ruoxi leaned against the door and said leisurely.

Bai Ruoxi's leisurely words made the person who was lifting the coffin board tremble.

What kind of guarantee is this for her? It's better not to guarantee it. After guaranteeing it, they will be even more afraid.

"How, am I right?" Bai Ruoxi looked at the three coffin boards they had opened, and asked them.

"There are corpses inside, but they have all turned into bones." Zi Qiao glanced inside the three coffins, and then reported to Bai Ruoxi.

"Miss, shall we continue?" Ashin and Ari asked Bai Ruoxi uncertainly as they looked at the strange and completely different wrapping method of the corpse inside.

"Go ahead, lift up all the coffin boards in this room." Bai Ruoxi nodded and ordered.

"Miss has already spoken, come and lift it up, let's help lift up these coffin boards, don't stand still." Allen gritted his teeth, stepped forward very simply, and said with his hands on the coffin boards.

Seeing Alan's resolute attitude, Zi Qiao and the others smiled at each other, stepped forward, and went to carry different coffin boards.

There are many people and strong strength, and within a short time, the coffin boards of the nine coffins were pried open by them.

"Miss, it's all over, it's full of corpses, there are no fake ghosts like you said." Ashin looked at the corpses in the nine coffins, and asked Bai Ruoxi in bewilderment.

"Is there anything different about the corpse?" Bai Ruoxi walked in and asked calmly.

When she asked, they all gathered around and looked at and compared one by one.

"Miss, there are seven corpses here, all of which are covered with white bones, but three of them seem to have been put in not long ago. Although the skin and skin have turned yellow and discolored, they have not rotted yet, let alone exposed."

They read the differences in the nine coffins in a while, and then came to the same conclusion and told him.

"Let me see~" Bai Ruoxi walked over, and they automatically led her to the coffin that had not turned into bones.

After reading it, Bai Ruoxi said loudly before leaving the coffin, "Well, it seems that it has not been placed here for a long time. Of course, it is also possible that the corpse has not rotted because of some factors."

After saying this, Bai Ruoxi waved to everyone and made a gesture for them to silence, then she opened her mouth again, purposely amplifying her voice and saying
"But I think the baby that hasn't rotted is nice and light. Maybe we can sell her for some money if we take her away."

Knowing that Bai Ruoxi said this on purpose, Ziqiao cooperated with her and said, "Yes, miss, maybe you can sell it for a good price. I heard that such corpses are collected by people, and they are quite valuable."

Although I don't know why they suddenly discussed such a topic, everyone participated in the discussion with great interest.

It's just that what happened next really scared them a lot.

The corpse in the coffin suddenly sat up straight and opened his eyes.

Allen, who was closer to the coffin, jumped up and ran to Bai Ruoxi, "Oh my god, it's really a scam."

The others almost had the same expression as Allen, and their movements froze in mid-air.

Everyone looked at the corpse sitting up, and watched the corpse jump out of the coffin with its eyes open, and felt that it was a thrill.

What the hell, seeing such a weird scene, their feet were numb, and their hearts were beating abnormally.

"Come back, where are you going? I haven't run yet. Why are you running?" Bai Ruoxi grabbed Alan's collar and pulled him back.

"Cheat...the corpse, run, run." Allen said with a smile uglier than crying, pointing at the corpse walking towards them.

"What are you running for? Let's see if it's a corpse." Bai Ruoxi pulled him in and pushed towards the "corpse".

Allen was suddenly pushed out by Bai Ruoxi, shortening the distance from the "corpse" all of a sudden, his eyes widened, and his heart almost went into cardiac arrest.

"I'm not a corpse, I'm a villager in this village, please, don't hurt us." Just when Alan was about to die, the "corpse" suddenly knelt down towards them and spoke.

Allen listened to the words from the "corpse" with surprise on his face, but at the same time he was greatly relieved and calmed down.

"Sure enough, it's alive." Bai Ruoxi looked at the people with the same expression as Allen with a funny face, and walked up to the "corpse".

"Old man, get up, we won't hurt you, I said that on purpose just now." Bai Ruoxi made a gesture of support, and said to the people on the ground with a gentle smile.

"You won't hurt us? Are you sure you won't hurt us?" The old man got up from the ground, his back bent, his skin sallow and thin, he looked like a mummy.

"No." Bai Ruoxi shook her head and assured.

"Old man, were you the ones coughing outside last night?" Bai Ruoxi asked him with a smile.

"Well, it's my wife. She has been in poor health. She often can't find food and drink here. It hasn't rained during this period, and she can't find clean water to drink. Her health is even worse."

The old man nodded. Although he was so skinny that he almost couldn't see his appearance, the appearance after putting down his guard still gave people a very peaceful feeling.

"My wife, come out, they are not bad people and will not hurt us." After finishing speaking, the old man staggered towards the direction of the coffin and picked up another "corpse" in the coffin.

"It turns out that they were the ones who heard the cough last night."

"Oh, I was quite frightened last night."

"Yeah, Miss didn't tell us the ghost story of the old man in the old house yesterday, I took it seriously."

Seeing that the mummy they just said was a living person, their emotions were extremely complicated, especially when they heard that the person who coughed last night was actually a person, they were all in a bad mood.

If I knew it was a human being, they were afraid of a wool last night, which made them worry all night in vain.

"High-quality people can't look at others with colored glasses. I believe that the people who follow me this time are all high-quality people, so I can't discriminate against the old man and them, you know."

How could Bai Ruoxi not know their thoughts, she warned them directly while watching them.

She dared to swear that if they had any hostility and malice just now, the old man's wife would have already activated the mechanism in the coffin.

That's why she sat up, but didn't come out with the old man.

Although they don't know what will happen after the mechanism in the coffin is activated, what is certain is that they will suffer a big loss.

I finally saw living people other than them here, and they were people from this village, so there was no need for them to make a fuss about something that could be avoided.

This is of no benefit to them at all, and she still wants to see if she can get any news about the Holy Kingdom from them.

"Old man, why do you live in coffins? It feels so scary. We treated you as corpses just now." After Alan confirmed that these were normal living people, he also became normal, and respected the old man. speaking in a tone of voice.

"Yes, old man, why do you live in coffins, and what's wrong with your skin, why is it like this." Ashin also asked enthusiastically.

"They are the guardians of the village and the guardians of the coffin. The place is dilapidated everywhere, and there are many terrible phenomena that cannot be explained by science. Living in a coffin is relatively safer and warmer. Old man, what I said Right?"

Bai Ruoxi watched as the old man walked over with his wife supporting him, and answered for him one step ahead of him.

"Yes, what the girl said is right. We are village guards and coffin guards, so we live here." The old man helped his wife sit on a dilapidated imperial concubine rocking chair at the door, and looked back at them and admitted.

"Then why did you become like this, old man?" Ashin looked at them and asked with concern, and then felt that his expression might be wrong, so he quickly shook his head and said, "No, old man, I don't mean anything else, I just wonder about you How did the skin become like this?"

"There is no food here, and there are some big beasts in the forest. We have no ability to hunt and kill them. The water in this well is not drinkable, and we can only rely on the rainwater accumulated in rainy days.

We have lived here for more than ten years. Originally, we were a family guarding here. Later, various accidents happened, and they all died, leaving me, my wife, and a granddaughter. "

The old man sighed and told them his story in a very helpless tone.

"By the way, do you have clean water and food? My little granddaughter hasn't eaten much for almost a week. I beg you to save her. I beg you, kind people."

Speaking of the granddaughter, the old man and his wife were in tears, so the old man supported his wife and knelt down for Bai Ruoxi and the others.
