Chapter 59 The Plan to Catch the Ghos (1/2)
t
There was nothing outside the door. He didn't see anyone or any shadows.
The worker, who was swarthy, immediately turned deathly pale. He kept his eyes fixed on the deep and quiet alley as if he was attacked by the Petrification Curse in an instant.
”Who is knocking at the door?”
Companions standing behind him didn't know what had happened. They thought it was the butler of Prince Yu's Mansion.
”No... no one is knocking at the door... Ghost... Ghost...”
The man who opened the door shouted and disappeared into the alley in an instant. He was as fast as the good horse.
”Master, hahaha, he's so fast.”
Baishao was hiding in the darkness. Looking at the man's figure, she was joyful and laughed silently.
Each of them wore a big black cloak, leaving only their eyes exposed. So they hid in the darkness and no one could notice them.
”Yes. He's quite fast. Well, please continue to frighten them. But be careful and avoid causing accidents.”
Lin Mengya brought a dozen of people with her. All of them were wearing the large black cloak and Lin Mengya also muffled herself up in the cloak.
Just now she went to the courtyard and checked those who had fainted.
Fortunately, they fainted because they smelled the pure and refined knockout drugs. They would probably wake up after sleeping for a night.
This provided further evidence that the ”ghost” in the teahouse just didn't want others to discover the secret of the gold.
Several skilled guards climbed the wall and carried the bright red lantern with a stick that was covered by a black cloth. Then they swung the lantern in the courtyard to frighten the workers.
At this time, the left several sober workers also fled immediately.
They were running and talking nonsense. They asked the ghost to spare their lives and promised that they would never enter this place anymore.
Lin Mengya couldn't help but shook her head. These men had been poisoned by the superstition.
A dozen of them quietly entered the small courtyard of the teahouse at night.
The courtyard was still sepulchral and there were many fainted workers lying on the ground, which made it look like a mass grave.
Lin Mengya was hiding behind others and looking at the small building.
Oh! Qinghu was really in this place!
Lin Mengya rubbed her eyebrows. The poison on Qinghu was deadly. They were far away now, but the poison radar in her head kept delivering warnings.
Qinghu was an enemy agent and tried to elicit secrets from her. Moreover, he was involved in everything.
Lin Mengya immediately decided she must use something more powerful than croton to torture him the next time!
Everything went according to plan. Lin Mengya asked her men to walk around the small teahouse with the red lanterns in their hands.
Suddenly, there were strange red lanterns flying around the dark teahouse.
Fortunately, there were no living people in this yard. Otherwise, some of them might be scared to death.
After a while, someone suddenly appeared in the small building. He was holding a sharp dagger, which was flashing coldly in the moonlight, and rushing to the red lantern.
But the dagger passed through the lantern in the next second. The flame just flashed, but the lantern seemed to remain intact.
Lin Mengya sneered silently. These lanterns were made of resilient silk thread.
Ordinary sharp weapons could only cut a few lines of it.
Therefore, he had the illusion that this dagger passed through the lantern.
This time, the fake 'ghost' in the small building was going to be confused.
The lanterns continued to fly. There were scary shadows everywhere in the building and she could even feel the evil wind. The fake ghost in the building might also be puzzled.
After a while, a black figure looked out of the building furtively.
Lin Mengya immediately motioned them to get started. The fish had swallowed the bait and it was time to close the net!
Several bright red ghosts suddenly appeared beside the dark figure. Their hair was disheveled and the black figure couldn't see their faces clearly.
The black figure was scared and suddenly gave a loud cry. Then he jumped and rushed back to the small building.
Lin Mengya almost laughed. But the bright red female ghosts did not follow the black figure and enter the building. Instead, they hid in the darkness once again.
Suddenly, there was nothing in the courtyard except for the bright red lanterns.
”Master, what if they escape?”
Baishao was bold and she looked at the building with great interest.
”We can pull down this teahouse if they run away. We can gain great benefits.”
But she didn't think that those people would really abandon the building and escape.
The dark clouds dispersed and the moon shone. Immediately, they could clearly see everything in the courtyard.
The people in the small building plucked up their courage and came out in a group to see what had happened.
Lin Mengya noticed that five people had come out. It seemed that they were very terrified.
When they walked together to the middle of the courtyard, Lin Mengya waved her hands and all the guards hidden in the darkness rushed out at the same time.
Lin Mengya heard the rattling noises and the five men were tied up by the guards.
But Lin Mengya suddenly felt uneasy. No! Qinghu was not among the five men!
She was about to come forward and check when someone put a strong arm around her slender waist.
