Chapter 313: Three Rooms

Translator: Lonelytree Editor: Millht cast where Chen Ge’s group was standing into darkness

“What’s happening?” Both Master Bai and Ol’ Wei were spooked Chen Ge’s hand hung in midair and did not fall on the door “I’m not sure It doesn’t seem like a coincidence”

There was no wind, and the lantern was hung high enough that they would notice if soht The other white lanterns swayed even though there was still no wind

It felt weirdly suffocating

Chen Ge and Ol’ Wei turned to look at Master Bai, but he had not experienced this before either “Shall we retreat for now?”

He walked two steps back and turned to look down the road, then he stopped “Be careful, so!”

“Who?” Chen Ge looked down the direction Master Bai was looking Under the glow of the swaying lanterns, a blurry human-shaped shadoly approached the at us?”

The shadow ood look at it It was an old lady earing a dark-colored jacket She kept her head lowered as she moved forward, and she only stopped when she almost ran into Chen Ge

“You also came from the outside?” The old lady’s voice eird andthe old lady’s choice of words, Chen Ge asked in return, “Also? There’s another party that entered the village earlier?”

“Yes” The woman kept her head lowered when she spoke like she was afraid of others seeing her face Chen Ge was ree were born with abnorh to purposely sneak a look at the old lady’s face

“Was it a e before us?” Chen Ge asked a follow-up question, but the old lady ignored hi her head lowered, it felt like the old lady’s head was alround However, she did not seeht not be people who answer the door”

It was unclear who the old lady was talking to She blocked them in the middle of the road, and the lanterns on both sides swayed harder

“Things have been coe lately Don’t wander about Co you somewhere to stay” The old lady turned to head back in the direction she came from Her steps were small, but she moved fast Combined with her head that al was just weird

“Shall we follow her?” Ol’ Wei turned to look at Chen Ge and Master Bai When he saw the old lady earlier, he already wanted to leave

“Let’s follow her for now” It was Master Bai who spoke “I feel familiar around the old lady Is it possible that I’ve seen her when I came to visit as a child?”

Master Bai walked ahead, and Chen Ge as well as Ol’ Wei followed behind hie They took several turns before they stopped “Tonight, you can stay here We can discuss the rest whencomes”

She still kept her head lowered, and the tone of her voice had not changed; it felt like they were talking to a puppet “There are three rooms inside the house Each of you can take one Remember to stay inside your room, and do not share rooms Do not touch the rope on theor the cleaver behind the door Stay in bed and wait for the night to pass”

“One rooht” Master Bai had to stay close to Chen Ge If he did not keep a good watch on him, he would run off on his own
