Hearing the sound of horses neighing in the woods on the left, the five of them stepped on the water to find a way, one foot high and one foot low as they walked towards the forest. Once we arrived in the forest, it became even darker, and we could only hear bang bang bang knocking on the door in front of us. Sure enough, there was a house. Xiang Yan felt relieved. But there were constant knocks on the door, but no one opened the door. The five people walked closer and saw a large dark house.
The woman shouted loudly: "Open the door, open the door to take shelter from the rain." After shouting for a long time, there was no movement at the door. The woman got impatient and jumped over the wall. Xu Tianchuan also jumped into the wall and opened the door. Wei Xiaobao, Xiang Yan, Fang Yi and the little princess entered the house.
Inside the gate is a large patio, and then there is a hall. The woman untied the oil bag from her side, took out the fire knife and flint, and lit a fire. When she saw a candle on the table in the hall, she went to light it. A bright light suddenly appeared in front of Xiang Yan's eyes, and he felt a burst of joy. I saw that the hall was furnished with rosewood chair furniture, which was the style of a wealthy family.
Xiang Yan looked at the woman again and saw that the woman was in her mid-thirties, extremely fat, with a face like a full moon, small eyes and a big mouth. He shook his head funny. Zhao Laosan had always called the woman girl before, and the woman also called herself girl. Xiang Yan thought he was about the same age as Fang Yi and the little princess, but he didn't expect that he turned out to be like this.
The woman suddenly said to Xiang Yan: "Little brother, what do you mean when you look at me and shake your head and laugh?" Xiang Yan was stunned and said hurriedly: "Ah, no, no, this..." What should I call her? ? The woman said: "Just call me sister." Xiang Yan said: "Sister, you misunderstood. I didn't look at you specifically, I was looking forward, but you happened to be standing in front of me. Neither did I When I smile and shake my head at you, I remember something I did in the past and felt stupid, so I smiled and shook my head."
The woman smiled and said, "Oh, so that's it!" Xiang Yan said, "That's it." The woman asked Xu Tianchuan, "Are you all friends in the world?" Xu Tianchuan said, " My surname is Xu, these two are my nephews, and these two are my nieces. We were originally going to Shanxi to visit relatives, but we didn’t want to encounter this heavy rain. Sister, what is your surname?"
The woman nodded to the store, but without asking Xu Tianchuan, she said: "This room is a bit weird." Xu Tianchuan also said: "Yes! There is no dust on the table, the floor is clean, and the room is clean." There's no one living there, so it's really weird." Wei Xiaobao asked in shock, "Could it be that the person cleaning the house is an evil spirit?" He was so frightened that he couldn't help but tremble.
Xiang Yan knew that this world was just a martial arts world, not a fairy world, and there would never be a ghost. There seems to be such a plot in the original work, and Wei Xiaobao seems to have gained a wife here. He comforted Wei Xiaobao and said, "Xiaobao, don't be afraid. If you don't do anything bad in your life, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. We are all good people, so there is no need to be afraid of ghosts." As a result, Wei Xiaobao was even more frightened.
Fang Yi held Wei Xiaobao's hand and said softly: "Don't be afraid." Wei Xiaobao then calmed down. Xiang Yan felt sour in his heart. Should I pretend to be more scared?
The woman was sitting in the hall, while Xu Tianchuan, Wei Xiaobao and the other five people were sitting on the threshold of the long window in the hall, and no one spoke.
Suddenly, several sounds of women crying came from the east room, and the sound was very sad. Despite the heavy rain, these cries could be heard clearly. Everyone looked at each other in horror. Xiang Yan was also confused in his heart: "Are there really ghosts in this world? After all, I can ascend, so it is not impossible that there are ghosts in this world." After a while, the sound of a woman crying could also be heard in the west room. .
The woman snorted and said loudly: "We passed by your place and took shelter here from the rain. We broke into the treasure house without permission. I would like to thank you very much. Will you be kind enough to see me?" These words were full of energy. Sent far away. After a long time, there was no movement at all.
The woman shook her head and said loudly: "Since the master here doesn't want to receive lay guests, we can't harass them without permission. So we took shelter in the hall to take shelter from the rain, and as soon as the rain stopped, we left as soon as possible." After that, he listened attentively and passed. After a long time, no more crying was heard.
The woman glanced sideways at Xu Tianchuan for a long time, and asked: "Mr. Xu, how many of you are coming from the capital?" Xu Tianchuan said: "That's right." The woman asked again: "Have you ever seen two people on the road? A young eunuch who is fourteen or fifteen years old?" As soon as he said this, Xiang Yan was shocked: "Is this old woman also someone sent by the Queen Mother to kill me?"
Xu Tianchuan said: "You mean eunuchs? There are so many eunuchs in the capital, old and young. You always bump into a few when you go out." The woman said: "I'm asking you, have you ever seen them on the street? I'm not talking about inside the capital." Xu Tianchuan smiled and said, "Sister, you can't say that anymore. According to the rules of the Qing Dynasty, eunuchs will commit capital crimes as soon as they leave the capital. Eunuchs are not as majestic as those in the Ming Dynasty. Which eunuch is now Dare you take a step outside the capital?"
The woman said "Oh" and said, "Maybe he has modified it." Xu Tianchuan shook his head repeatedly and said, "I don't have the guts, I don't have the guts." After a pause, he said again, "Big sister, you found it. What kind of little eunuch is he? When I return to the capital from visiting relatives in Shanxi, I will help you find out." The woman said: "Humph, thank you very much, but I don't know if they have such a long life." After saying that, she closed. Eyes silent.
