My ghost wives all want to kill me?

On the narrow path of the corridor, there are also some fallen wooden boards and lanterns, among a pile of dust and yellow sand.

The rain outside seems to have become lighter as time goes by. Although it has not completely stopped, a trace of moonlight can already seep through.

I hope the rain will stop soon.

"It's not bad."

Li Gui found the lost flashlight through the large hole on the side of the wall and replaced the mobile phone in his hand. Li Gui looked at the dilapidated teahouse wall next to him and couldn't help but admire himself.

"It's good to exercise more. The walls are rotten and I'm still fine."

Stop being narcissistic and move forward.

In the entire corridor, except for Ye Xiaoxuan's room and the tea room where he was forced out by the old woman of the Ye family at the beginning, there are three doors on the innermost side.

The door at the front was the direction in which the red embroidered shoes chased the old woman of the Ye family to escape. There were two more doors in the depth.

The spacing is not large, and it seems that the room area should be very small.

"If I really have to follow the method mentioned in the note to see Ye Xiaoxuan's soul, I have to find the things she cherished during her lifetime and the black flag used to summon the soul. If the former is the case, the girl named Momo should know Something."

Turning off the flashlight first, Li Gui walked to the first wooden door and looked inside through the thin oil paper.

Here, he could clearly hear the plaintive voice of red embroidered shoes singing opera inside, probably not far from his current position, through the thin moonlight outside the window paper behind him.

You can also vaguely see a door in the door corridor, and a large black flag standing in the depths.

"really....."

Gritting his teeth, Li Gui left here first, and then walked towards the other two doors in the depths.

Someone had already visited the entire mansion before he entered, and left him tips on attracting souls and the props he needed.

Li Gui didn't know what the person hiding behind wanted to do, but he had no other choice.

Even if he sensed something was wrong, he could only go to the dark side.

This is the only clue about Mi Ran's disappearance, and he can no longer give up.

"Ha~ If it doesn't work out, I'll give Kuiran a slap on his neck and see who can outplay whom."

A cold look flashed in his eyes, and Li Gui quickened his pace.

Turning on the flashlight, the second room was a mourning hall with many memorial tablets placed on the stage. The incense and fruits on the tribute table had long since burned and rotted away.

There was a lot of dust accumulated on each tablet, and it was difficult to see clearly what was written on it.

Li Gui glanced at it for a moment or two. After confirming that this room was not Momo's room as Ye Xiaoxuan said, he no longer had the intention to go in and investigate.

It was the house next to him that attracted his attention.

"So many paper figures."

The room built in the mourning hall was very small, only about ten square meters. In one corner of the room there was only a bed covered with a simple bedding, and nothing else.

But inside the room, there were four or five paper figures standing in a circle, looking at the middle, not knowing what was under their feet.

"This may be the room of the little girl named Momo."

The layout of the room was in line with the Ye family's preference for boys over girls. He pushed the door open and Li Gui walked in.

The door panel behind him slowly closed after he entered.

Although the room is small, it is very clean. There are some paper cranes and small paper frogs placed on the bed.

I used a brush to draw two eyes.

Li Gui had also seen these self-made toys in Ye Xiaoxuan's room.

Turn on the flashlight, and through the paper figures, you can see a small puppet surrounded inside.

However, unlike the puppet in Grandma Mei's room, this puppet was very crudely carved and could only be barely recognized as the shape of a child.

There were three words written crookedly on the back.

Ye Momo.

"Grandpa...grandma...sister...aunt...is this little girl making friends with these paper figures?"

The other four paper figures surrounding the little puppet also had titles written on their backs. Although they were crooked, they were barely legible.

"Ye Momo and Ye Xiaoxuan had a good relationship when they were young. Before Ye Xiaoxuan hanged herself, for some unknown reason, she felt very guilty towards Ye Momo. Could the most precious thing in her life be with Ye Momo?"

Chapter 237 Agreement

Li Gui knelt down, stretched out his hand, passed through the gap between several paper figures, and grabbed the little one placed at the bottom.

He originally just wanted to see if this wooden little man might have been given to the little girl Ye Momo by Ye Xiaoxuan.

But as soon as he got it, several strange paper figures above his head suddenly lowered their heads and looked at him.

"I'm just taking a look and will return it to you later."

There was definitely no reason to return what he got. Li Gui didn't care whether the paper figures agreed or not, so he just took the puppet in his hand.

But before he could stand up, a huge pull suddenly came from the backpack behind him, causing his whole body to fall directly to the ground before he could stand firm.

"Again?"

The familiar feeling came from the hanging sheets and the darkness under the bed, causing Li Gui to quickly let go of the flashlight and ghost-killing knife.

He straightened his hands and let the backpack that was dragged by an unknown force pass through his arms. When he was pulled in, he immediately turned over, picked up the ghost-killing knife on the ground, and slashed it at the bed board behind him.

There was a bang, and the paper cranes and little frogs on the quilt inevitably trembled.

"Woo~"

Li Gui didn't know if he heard it wrong. With this knife strike, he seemed to hear the whining voice of a little girl.

"Ye Momo?"

He didn't let him wait too long. A few seconds after he finished speaking, the backpack that had just been pulled in under the bed board was immediately sent out again.

Then, as if he was afraid that Li Gui would stab him again, under the bed board, in the gap where the sheets were floating, from the dark depths, the timid voice of a little girl came.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, Momo... I just want to play with you."

play with me?

Is it that exciting?

Li Gui's cheeks twitched when he heard the girl's voice, but he reacted immediately and spoke to comfort her.

"It's okay, it was uncle who made a fuss. Are you hurt?"

"No."

Maybe he was a little frightened by the old woman from the Ye family just now, but Li Gui didn't expect to frighten the poor girl like this with just a casual knife.

He picked up his backpack and put it on his back. There was no other answer under the bed board, and he was too embarrassed to pick up the flashlight and look inside. This was very rude.

But after finally meeting the rightful owner, he must not let it go easily.

After thinking for a while, Li Gui suddenly remembered the candy he had bought at the rest stop. It was originally to bribe Xiaobai to work for him, but he didn't expect it to be used here.

He tentatively took them all out of his backpack and placed them in front of the hanging sheets, less than half a meter below the bed board.

"Momo, uncle, I'm sorry for scaring you just now. This is the candy that uncle bought. Can you forgive uncle?"

Under the bed, the dark area revealed in the gap was silent for a while, then timidly stretched out a small hand, grabbed a candy, and immediately retracted it.

After a while, a timid little girl's voice came from below.

"Well...thank you, uncle."

The voice sounded cute, which actually made Li Gui breathe a sigh of relief.

It's good to be able to communicate, at least it's much better than searching blindly on your own.

"Momo, uncle, can I ask you something?"

Strictly speaking, the little girl under the bed was about the same age as his mother-in-law Ye Xiaoxuan, but faced with such a petite voice, Li Huihuan really couldn't open his mouth to call her aunt.

"Well......"

There was no answer for the time being. Another small gray hand stretched out from under the hanging sheets of the bed, grabbed a candy and retracted it.

"Momo, can you still remember sister Ye Xiaoxuan?"

This time, instead of waiting for Ye Momo to agree, Li Gui knelt down, turned off the flashlight, and asked proactively.

"Sister Xiaoxuan?"

Just as Li Gui had guessed, Ye Momo, who was hiding under the bed, finally reacted when she heard Ye Xiaoxuan's name.

"Yes, I want to see her. Do you know where she is?"

Li Gui tried to keep his tone calm and did not dare to push too much.

Outside the door, the sad opera sound of the red embroidered shoes seemed to be getting closer. He did not hear the sound of the ghost of the old lady of the Ye family. It was very likely that she had been killed by Yin Mengyi, who had turned into a ghost.

Ye Momo should be safe hiding under the bed, as long as she doesn't speak.

"I don't know, sister Xiaoxuan, she hasn't been back for a long time."

Although he had already guessed the answer, the little girl's answer still made Li Gui's eyes flash with disappointment.

"Momo, do you know what sister Xiaoxuan likes in particular?"

"really like?"

The tone was a bit doubtful. Ye Momo thought for a while under the bed board, and then he didn't know what he was rummaging under, and heard a noisy sound.

After about ten seconds, the little gray hand stretched out.

Next to a pile of candies, an almost completely faded red tumbler was taken out.

"A long time ago, my aunt bought this for Sister Xiaoxuan. Sister Xiaoxuan liked it very much and kept it well. Momo didn't have a mother and wanted to play with it, so she secretly took it over."

Ye Momo's cute tone sounded a little guilty and sad. Li Gui didn't know how to comfort her. The most important thing was that he heard the sound of the door opening in the corridor outside.

The red embroidered shoes had already come out of the first door.

"Can I give this to my uncle? I'll return it to you when he's done using it."

"Well......"

It can be seen that Momo likes this tumbler very much.

In other words, she was very envious that her sister Xiaoxuan had a mother who loved her. Ye Momo held the faded roly-poly hand and kept holding it tightly.

Li Gui felt a little anxious inside. The resentful opera sound outside the door seemed to be getting closer to the room where he was.

"Well, uncle, can you pull the hook?"

After a while, Ye Momo's fingers stretched out from the bottom of the bed. Her entire arm was gray-white, and she didn't look like a normal person at all.

But he also has a lot of innocence and simplicity that no stranger has.

"Well, pull the hook."

The skin touched and felt cold. After making an agreement with Ye Momo, Li Gui picked up the tumbler and stood up. Ye Momo also took all the candies and retracted under the bed.

"The corridor outside is a one-way passage. Yin Mengyi should have come out, and the sound should be coming in this direction."

He successfully obtained Ye Xiaoxuan's favorite item during his lifetime, the faded puppet, but Li Gui's face became extremely serious when he heard the approaching sounds of opera outside the door.

"Momo, don't make a sound, just wait here for me."

He gave an uneasy instruction to Ye Momo under the bed. After hearing the other party's timid answer, Li Guicai turned off the flashlight and walked to the door cautiously.

Through the torn oil paper on the door, he could barely see everything decadent outside the corridor, illuminated by the thin moonlight from the side window.

Chapter 238 If Momo were a boy

However, the field of view is very limited, and I can only roughly see less than one or two meters in front of the door.

But as the sound of the opera got closer, the pair of red embroidered shoes gradually appeared at the end of the field of vision.

This time, it was no longer just a pair of embroidered shoes, but the vague figure of a long-haired woman gradually appeared on the red embroidered shoes.
