C33 (1/2)
Even though the Ghost Being would only come out at night, it would be safer during the day.
Besides, the visibility was high during the day. Even if it was a bit dark, the surroundings were not completely dark. He could clearly see and feel at ease.
Humans had a fear of the dark. It was something they were born with, and it might be difficult to change.
At this time of the day, a series of bangs came from the Aunt Zhang's room.
I carefully listened to it. It was actually the sound of a cupboard in the room. The sound was very much like the sound of a person who was in a bad temper throwing away something in the house.
When I heard the voice, my heart skipped a beat. At this moment, there was only one door between me and the room where the voice came from, but … My heart was in turmoil.
Pushing the door open, I don't know what I'm going to see, but inside... Maybe something I didn't see last time.
With that in mind, I frowned and took a few deep breaths.
There were a lot of things that needed to be done now, and they couldn't be delayed at all.
He was left alone. If he was so weak, it would be difficult for him to protect himself.
If he could not even protect himself, then what about Lingling?
As I thought of Lingling, my gaze became determined. Actually, these two days of tempering had already caused my temperament to reach a whole new level.
If it was the old me, I wouldn't have the courage to come to Aunt Zhang's house to take a look.
But now there was a force pushing me, and I knew I had to.
I can't let myself, let Lingling live under the despise of the villagers, I want to hold my head high and act like a human!
The villagers have never treated me well, so it would be impossible to say that they only wanted to seek the truth in order to relieve the villagers of their worries.
I'm not that great. It's good enough that I can help myself not to resent them now.
Everything that I have done now, is for the sake of allowing Lingling to continue living with laughter in the future!
Thinking of this, I finally pushed open the door. It was also at this instant that the loud sound actually stopped.
At this moment, only the faint sound of the aftermath could be heard.
How to... Suddenly, there was no more sound …
Looking at the Uncle Zhang's spirit tablets, I realised that two of them seemed to have been wiped clean by someone. The censers that were already broken had also been replaced.
After the death of their foster father, there was actually someone else who came to Aunt Zhang's house and even paid respects to him …
Who could it be?
There are a total of seven photos in the sleeves of my foster father, and these few years I have been treating eight people as Funerary Lady.
This shouldn't have been an accident. The person who didn't have the photo probably died in an accident, not in some kind of plan.
I understand this death as a plan, but... What kind of plan was this?
At this moment, it was still a mystery. He needed to slowly test it out and explore it.
I frowned slightly. Uncle Zhang didn't have any relatives in the village, even if they did, they were still distant relatives.
They had never paid their respects when they died. Because of the series of events that had happened, the funeral procession had been deserted.
Now, ten years had passed, and the villagers would even feel unlucky if they approached this courtyard, let alone come over to worship and exchange their incense burners.
Furthermore, from the looks of these two spirit tablets, they weren't ordinary either, as if they weren't just there to pay their respects, but to … Practice...
There were some black ashes on the ground. They should have been the ashes of the round hole money, but it could never be seen that there were some corners that were completely burnt. On the paper money, there were some strange Rune s written.
Furthermore, there were some bloodstains on the spirit tablet. Although it wasn't much, one could faintly see traces of the finger.
From the looks of it, it looked like he had rubbed his fingers on it.
Could it be Liu Songxian?
Of all the people I know, he's the only one who's likely to do it now.
In other words, there were other characters in the whole incident, but they hadn't surfaced yet?
If that was really the case, then this person was definitely an extremely important character, even … It's quite possible that he was the mastermind of the whole incident...
Looking at the tablet in front of me, I fell into a daze.
Just when I was lost in my thoughts, suddenly, a pair of hands were placed on my shoulders.
