Throwing the keys in his hand one after another, Xi Yu slowly looked for a way out on the winding path of Meilin.
Maybe the head of the Li family and his wife have been trapped in Merlin for a long time, and their desire to leave overwhelms their reason, or maybe they really have the confidence that the female ghost can't find them.
All in all, Xi Yu successfully obtained the key to the backyard and knew how to open the locked door.
It's just that, by coincidence, she got lost in this small Merlin.
The location of the plum trees planted in the Li Mansion is quite particular. It is clear that the weather is still sunny, but the plum forest is dark and gloomy. Occasionally, a few gleams of white cold light shine through the gaps between the plum blossoms.
The plum trees that were cut down before disappeared. No matter how Xi Yu marked them, she would only see brand new plum trees. The only thing that remained unchanged was the pavilion where the wife of the head of the Li family was hiding.
Xi Yu also tried to go to the pavilion, or go back to the tree where the head of the Li family lived, and asked him to think of a way, but no matter which direction she went, the distance between the pavilion and her was still the same.
The head of the Li family has been deceived, but he can't capsize in the gutter.
A little anxiously, Xi Yu cut down a plum tree, and calculated the time based on the position of the sun. Regretfully, she realized that it was around five o'clock in the afternoon. If she didn't leave as soon as possible, she might not be able to make it in time for dinner.
If you don't go to dinner on time, something might happen.
There was a figure in front of him, Xi Yu clicked his tongue and stopped cautiously.
That person was dressed as a maid, but she didn't wear a green coat and green skirt like other maids. Instead, she was dressed in plain white, with a white linen belt tied between her forehead.
"The guest must have lost his way. I am Xiulan, Meilin's maid. The guest can follow me."
The maid in mourning clothes floated towards Xi Yu, her face empty except for a mouth that opened and closed in the middle of her face.
"Dinner time will be here soon. Guest, Merlin is in danger. Please come with me."
The maid didn't speak fast, but she moved faster than anyone Xi Yu had ever met. She now understood the meaning of the warning about maids in mourning in the rules given to her by the female ghost.
Who can't see the danger when such a thing rushes up? !
Without any hesitation, Xi Yu immediately picked up the knife and dodged back. She didn't have any psychological burden and ran forward with all her heart. She just wanted to take the maid in mourning clothes who was lingering behind her to the head of her family.
Xi Yu's physical strength was limited, but the maid's speed was getting faster and faster. Seeing the pavilion still standing in the distance, she suddenly remembered the ghost beating the wall she encountered when she and her grandfather went to the countryside for a funeral when she was a child. Her heart skipped a beat and she took something out of her backpack. Xiaoyue's diary: "Xiaoyue! I'm going to close my eyes. Please help me watch and don't let me hit the tree!"
She said she believed Xiaoyue, and immediately closed her eyes, ignoring the dense plum blossom trees in front of her, and rushed forward with all her strength.
Before the maid with only one mouth on her face understood why this man was seeking death, she saw a translucent girl suddenly standing in front of Xi Yu. Whenever Xi Yu was about to hit a tree, her angle would miraculously change. Keep running without slowing down at all.
The ghost wall is an obstacle. The key to breaking through the ghost wall is to follow the heart. The eyes can lie, but the soul cannot.
If you open your eyes, you can't get out of Merlin. If you close your eyes, you will be chased by the maid in mourning clothes. No matter which one you choose, Xi Yu is destined to be left in Merlin.
But she took a third path.
I'm afraid that before Xi Yu, no one would have thought of using a ghost as their eyes. Even if they really could, I'm afraid no one would trust a cruel ghost with many evil deeds.
Changing Xi Yu's direction in time again and again, watching the light at the exit in front getting brighter and brighter, Xiaoyue looked at Xi Yu who was holding her hand with confusion.
She has trusted others many times, but she has only been truly relied on and trusted twice. Once by her classmates from Tianzhang Academy, and once by Xi Yu.
Without the assistance of Ghost Smashing the Wall, the maid in mourning clothes was actually not that fast. The closer she got to the exit of the Merlin, the more her body sank into the mud. The moment Xi Yu stepped out of the Merlin, the maid in mourning screamed desperately and unwillingly, The top of his head was completely submerged in the mud.
Unable to stop the car in time, Xi Yu loosened her grip and ran headlong into the physically cold embrace of her two personal maids.
Li Shun was quite surprised when he saw her: "You can still come out alive?"
After taking a few breaths, Xi Yu took the warm water handed to her by the maids and drank it in one gulp. She picked up her backpack and solemnly thanked the diary before pointing to the restaurant energetically: "Let's go! It's time to make a meal." It’s over!”
Sun Xuanyi and Zhou Xiang sat obediently in the restaurant, looking at Xu Cheng who looked ashen and dead, with alert and complicated eyes.
The restaurant that was packed with eight people two days ago now only had four seats left. After all, he had been educated in the police academy for four years. Xi Yu sighed with emotion. Unexpectedly, this made Xu Cheng jump like a girl. He stood up and glanced around nervously, finally stopping on Xi Yu's face for a long time.
Without anyone else reminding her, Xi Yu was aware of Xu Cheng's abnormality. The dangerous intuition she had developed over the years made her feel a terminal madness in Xu Cheng.
The moment the dishes were put down, Xi Yu stood up and signaled Zhou Xiang and Zhou Xiang to leave together.
The sound of gurgling water sounded from Xu Cheng's position. The too viscous flow speed made Xi Yu slow down, and she looked back in confusion.
A piece of blood-red flesh that could barely be seen as human-like was melting rapidly in front of the three of them. The flesh and blood that resembled limbs struggled to crawl out, but it split feebly into smaller minced meat and fell to the ground, and then turned into thick blood. .
"ah……"
A muddy sound, as if something was clogged in the throat, resounded from the round piece of meat. Xu Cheng was unable to spit out even half a word, and his teeth fell out one after another.
In less than a cup of tea, all that was left of a living person was a pool of blood and mud and a few teeth.
Zhou Xiang and Sun Xuanyi were numb from the stimulation of the past few days. They just looked at Xi Yu blankly and walked out together with hands and feet.
"How could there be someone so seeking death?"
Even in the Li Mansion, Xu Cheng's death method was still too bizarre and cruel.
Walking to the locked room, Li Shun looked back at the restaurant from time to time: "What on earth is he thinking? Even if he hates you, he can't poison the dinner prepared for you by Li Mansion."
Isn't this provoking that woman and the rules?
Xi Yu tore off the cinnabar seal, twisted the key, and heard two crisp clicks. The wooden door that had been sealed for a long time was opened, and there was a faint glow of red candlelight in the dark and damp room.
A white porcelain Guanyin statue is placed in the middle. Three unburned incense sticks are inserted in the brass incense burner. White smoke curls up, covering the face of the Bodhisattva.
A wedding dress that looked like it was completely soaked in blood was placed in the center of the bed.
The mournful joy suddenly arose, and blood filled the air.
