C93 (1/2)

After putting on my sandbag, I called Benoit.

Benoit said she was on her way to the South Pavilion crossing, and I hung up the phone and started on my way.

Very quickly, I met Bai Nanxin at the South Pavilion Crossing and we went together to the old lady's house.

After a few streets, a few turns, and a very wet alley, we reached the bottom of the old woman's house.

The old lady's house was on the second floor, and we were on the ground floor, and I was wondering if I should call out and ask the old lady to come down and open the door for us.

At this moment, the door to the second floor suddenly opened.

I was stunned for a moment. When I looked inside the door, it was a blur of darkness. Slowly, a pale figure appeared.

Taking a closer look, it was a middle-aged woman. Her face was very pale, as if she had been beaten by frost. Her hair was a little messy, and her eyes were dull and cold like ice thorns.

The middle-aged woman suddenly opened her mouth and said, ”The two of you are Guangxun Nan and Bai Nuxin, right?”

I was stunned for a moment. Who was this person? How did she know our names?

I looked at Bai Nanxin and found that she didn't notice anything amiss. She only smiled and said, ”That's right, that's us. Hi, Aunty.”

The middle-aged woman's face remained as cold as ever as she said, ”My mom is waiting for you upstairs. Follow me.” Then he turned and went upstairs.

It turned out to be the grandma's daughter-in-law.

”How did she know our names?” I asked.

Bai Nanxin was stunned.

I added, ”I don't remember telling the granny our names last night.”

At this moment, I saw a trace of fear flash in Bai Nanxin's eyes. But very quickly, she smiled and said, ”What are you afraid of? You'll know when we get there.”

With that, she followed.

I took a deep breath and let it out slowly. I thought, 'Damn it, I'll die soon, what am I afraid of?' Didn't the old Taoist already say that the old lady was a ghost, but she wouldn't hurt us? Since it didn't hurt me, then what did I have to fear!?

Thinking this way, I made up my mind and ran up …

When they arrived at the second floor and entered the main hall, they felt a wave of coldness assail them. The lights in the room were still dim, as if there was a layer of gray fog in the air that made it hard to see.

Bai Nuxin subconsciously crossed her arms.

At this moment, a middle-aged man walked out from the bedroom. He smiled when he saw us.

This smile should have been amiable, but in my eyes, it suddenly felt like the smile of a hungry wolf showing its fangs when it meets delicious food.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, ”My mom is in the kitchen preparing food. You guys can take a seat. You're welcome.” Then he turned to the middle-aged woman and said, ”Miaojie, quickly make a pot of tea.”

The woman called Xiuju quickly ran over with a pot of tea. As usual, her face was as cold as ever. She placed the teapot on the table, and without saying anything, returned to her bedroom.

As the middle-aged man poured tea for us, he smiled and said, ”I'm sorry, but my wife is feeling a bit uncomfortable.”

We took the tea he poured and thanked him. Then he said, ”Wait a minute, I'll help my mother cook. She belongs to an old family, and I wouldn't want her to come into the kitchen, but she said you were her guests today and had to cook for yourself. Heh heh. Yes, you can watch TV first. ” He went over to the TV, found the remote, and placed it on the table in front of us.

Benoit and I hastened to say that it was all right.

The middle-aged man chuckled and then entered the kitchen.

At this moment, the sound of a kitchen knife chopping meat could be heard.

I've been paying attention to everything in this house. There's something strange about this house.

I wondered why they had used such a dim light. Also, why did the air conditioner have to be turned on so cold? It was so cold that it made one's hair stand on end, and also, that woman called Xiuju earlier, her ice-cold face was unsightly no matter how one looked at it. As for that middle-aged man, he had a fake smile, and always felt that his smile was a little strange …

I calmed myself down and cursed myself a few times in my heart. Didn't I already know that before I came here? That old granny is a ghost. In that case, that couple could also be a ghost …

Yes, that's right. A thousand percent is a ghost!

Then I thought about it again. The old Taoist only said that the old granny wouldn't hurt me, but he didn't say that her son and daughter-in-law wouldn't hurt me! If they knew that I am a Yin Yang Soul, would they covet my Yin Yang Soul …?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Bai Nuxin, who was sitting beside me, noticed my change. She pushed my arm and asked, ”What's wrong?”

I said, ”Nothing, nothing...”

If I told Bai Nanxin that all three of them were ghosts, she would not have believed me and would have sent me flying with a kick.

Alright, there's no such thing as' death '. What is there to be afraid of? Isn't it just a ghost? Furthermore, there's still the beautiful lady Bai accompanying me if I die. When I think about it this way, I feel much better.
