Ma Taoer quickly sat up, lit the candle, and found that a cup had fallen on the table.
She was stunned on the spot, looking at the broken pieces of the cup on the ground in disbelief.
"How is that possible? I remember putting the cup on the table before going to bed."
The table is so big, as long as there is no earthquake, the cup will not fall.
Ma Taoer's face instantly turned pale. She looked at the cup and thought of the nightmare she had just had, and almost screamed out in surprise.
"Who? Who's in the house!"
She felt that there was someone in the room, so she quickly took a few steps back, nestled in the corner of the bed, and wrapped herself tightly in the quilt.
However, the room was quiet and there was no sound.
There was no wind outside the house tonight, so quiet that she could hear her own breathing.
After Ma Taoer sat quietly for a long time, she breathed a sigh of relief. However, at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. ?.?????.???
"Dong-dong-dong! Dang-dong-dong!"
Ma Taoer was so frightened that the hair on her body stood up.
She didn't dare to speak or move.
There was a knock on the door outside the house, but no one spoke.
"Who, who's outside?" Ma Taoer couldn't bear it anymore and shouted towards the door.
The knocking on the door is getting faster and faster.
Ma Taoer's face turned pale, she clutched the quilt in her hand tightly, and did not dare to speak any more.
I don't know how long it took, but the knocking on the door stopped.
Ma Taoer's face gradually improved a lot. She slowly got off the bed and cautiously came to the door.
There was no sound outside the door. She breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to go back to bed and sleep again.
As she turned around, there was a sudden creak from the window behind her.
Ma Taoer's footsteps froze for an instant, and she vaguely felt someone coming from behind.
Ta-ta, tap-ta.
The voice was very soft, and he came step by step behind Ma Taoer.
Ma Taoer froze in place, her body trembling desperately, cold sweat dripping from her forehead.
At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the window creaked again. Ma Taoer was forced to goosebumps by the inexplicable cold air.
Ma Taoer wanted to look behind her, but she didn't dare to turn sideways.
She clenched her fists and wanted to leave here, but her feet seemed to be frozen and she couldn't move even if she wanted to.
"Who? Who's behind?"
Ma Taoer said with a trembling voice.
But there was no response other than the cold wind behind him.
Ma Taoer's mind is filled with the portrait she saw at Zhou's house today. For her, behind her is the person she has always wanted to marry.
She panicked, closed her eyes, and said shivering: "Young master of the Zhou family, I was wrong. I shouldn't have provoked you. Just let me go! I don't want to die yet. I still want to live a good life for a few days. "
"Young Master Zhou, I don't want to marry anymore, please let me go!"
She was talking to herself.
The window behind her moved again, and the footsteps were getting closer and closer, as if they were about to touch her back.
As the footsteps stopped, another cup on the table rolled to the ground with a thud.
"Ah! Help!"
Ma Taoer screamed and ran forward. Perhaps because she was too anxious, she accidentally bumped into the door frame, rolled her eyes and fainted.
As Ma Taoer fell to the ground, the three big wild cats scattered in all directions.
It turned out that there was no one behind her just now, let alone any ghosts, just three big wild cats.
It was the wild cat that pushed open the window to let the cold wind blow in, and it was the wild cat that knocked over the cup on the table.
As for the footsteps, it was just Ma Taoer who scared herself and caused auditory hallucinations.
At this time, the door was also forced open.
It was the innkeeper. He asked the mute maid beside him: "Is this the guest you are talking about?"
The maid made gestures, "Yes, sir, she was the one who was shouting and yelling in the house tonight. I knocked on the door, but she didn't open the door."
The shopkeeper frowned and said, "Go find two people and ask for a doctor."
The maid bent down and made a gesture and turned to leave.
This maid is a mute girl who was taken in by the innkeeper. She helps clean the inn on weekdays. When she got up tonight, she heard something moving in Ma Taoer's house, so she wanted to knock on the door and ask.
Unexpectedly, Ma Taoer not only did not open the door, but also shouted randomly in the room. She was worried, and then she invited the shopkeeper again.
The shopkeeper was also a kind-hearted person and hired a doctor for Ma Taoer.
The doctor bandaged the wound on her head, put down some medicine to stop the bleeding, and left.
The next day, Ma Taoer woke up in her bed, still in shock, "Ghost! Ghost!"
