I farmed and built a villa in ancient times

Chapter 123 Return of the Field Deed 2
Zhou Chenyu put his hand on the wooden door and knocked lightly. The two closed doors slowly opened, but there was no one inside.

"Aren't you at home?"

She muttered to herself, looking at the mooncakes and kitchen knife in her hand, "You're already here, I'll put the things away and leave. It shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

Zhou Chenyu struggled for a while, then opened the door and walked in.

When she entered the house, it was still the same as when she left it last time. There were piles of clutter everywhere, and it didn't look like a normal person's residence at all.

Zhou Chenyu walked around the room, picked a prominent spot, put down the mooncakes and kitchen knife, and was about to leave when he heard a creaking sound from the wooden door outside.

It seems that someone is coming.

At this moment, she didn't know which rib she had made the wrong way, and even though she didn't do anything, she opened the door on the left side of the main room with a guilty conscience, and got in.

The room was so dark that there was only one light-transmitting window at the farthest end from her, which could only allow a child to get through.

After she stayed there for a while, the air was filled with the smell of moist dust, which made her throat feel itchy and dry, making her want to cough.But people outside have already walked in, and if they go out now, they may not be able to wash themselves away even if they jump into the Yellow River.

"Why did I come in just now?" Zhou Chenyu cursed himself, turned around and looked at the window at the end.

The window was open and a cool breeze was brought in, which might make her feel better.

Zhou Chenyu gently raised his toes and walked towards the wall. The closer he got to the window, the fresher the air he breathed became.

Zhou Chenyu took two deep breaths of air and finally relieved the itching in his throat.She leaned lazily on the black wooden board in front of her and glanced casually, catching a glimpse of a square pillow made of folded clothes placed under the wooden box.

The square pillow only occupies a small space on the side of the wooden box, and there is still a lot of space underneath, enough to accommodate one person.

But who would sleep in a wooden box?
Instead of sleeping in a big bed, you also need to customize a large wooden box that can sleep people?

Uncle Zhang is really strange.

Zhou Chenyu frowned and thought for a while. The light coming from the small window was wider. She looked along the direction of the light beam. A curved and straight black square wooden board came into view, and then a rectangular parallelepiped under the wooden board. wooden box.

and many more!

Why does this shape look like...a coffin?
Zhou Chenyu's heart beat faster for two seconds, and he looked over with doubt, and saw a ghastly coffin right in front of him.

"Ah!" She screamed in horror, not caring about anything, she was so frightened that she ran out.

When Yang Xi saw Uncle Zhang missing in the house, he was about to leave.

As soon as I heard someone in the house, I became wary.

Yang Xi unsheathed his sword and walked quickly towards the door, only to see Zhou Chenyu running out with a look of horror on his face.

The long blade was sheathed without a trace like the swift wind. He walked towards her, lowered his eyes and asked, "Why are you here?"

Zhou Chenyu saw Yang Xi standing in front wearing a blue robe, his tall and straight figure standing like a pine tree.

She looked at his cold face that kept strangers away, but subconsciously she felt that there was no safer place than by his side.

Zhou Chenyu didn't even think about running towards him, and even though he knew he might be thrown away, he immediately grabbed his arm tightly and hid beside him, "Yang Xi, help!"

Yang Xi glanced at the place she was holding and wanted to pull away. Seeing how frightened she was, he had to lower his voice and asked slowly: "What happened to you? Why are you so scared?"

Zhou Chenyu looked into Yang Xi's eyes, wondering if she was just being sentimental, but there was a little care and tenderness in them.She calmed down for a moment, but still hugged his arm tightly as if grasping a life-saving straw and wouldn't let go. She pointed at the dark room in front of her and said fearfully:
"I saw a coffin in this room just now. It almost scared me to death. Fortunately, you came."

"Coffin?" Yang Xi was surprised, paused for a moment, took out a fire stick, blew it, and illuminated the path under his feet, "I'll go in and take a look."

If she, Zhou Chenyu, was the only one here, she wouldn't go in a second time even if she was killed.

But now that Yang Xi is here, she feels much more at ease.

"I'll go too." Zhou Chenyu clutched Yang Xi's clothes tightly with his hands and followed him step by step.

Although the light of the Huozhezi was far less bright than the sunlight, when the burning Huozhezi was stretched forward, the true features of the two coffins were indeed revealed before their eyes.

Zhou Chenyu looked at the coffin in front of him, and an eerie cold wind blew from behind.

She had actually stayed with the coffins for so long just now, and there were two of them.

Cold sweat broke out on her palms, and she grasped Yang Xi's sleeves tightly, looking up at his chiseled profile, "Look, I'm not lying to you, there really is a coffin here."

Yang Xi looked at the scene in front of him without saying a word. He pursed his lips and stepped forward. A coffin by the window opened a crack.

Zhou Chenyu was afraid of seeing an old corpse, so he closed his eyes hard, pressed against Yang Xi's side, and said with a trembling voice:
"I know you're brave, but it's still too scary. Let's get out quickly. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst."

Yang Xi lowered his head to look at her, illuminated the Huozhezi, and saw clearly the clothes in the coffin.

He was silent for a moment, put away the sorrow in his eyes, and said solemnly: "You don't have to be afraid, these are Uncle Zhang's clothes, he should be sleeping here."

"Ah?" Zhou Chenyu stretched his eyebrows, opened his eyes, and met the man's firm eyes.

Only then did she gain some courage. She leaned forward and took a look. Indeed, there were no old corpses inside, only some tattered clothes.

Zhou Chenyu gave a false alarm and let go of his hand, "This is a place where people live. Why do they put coffins in the house? There are two coffins in the house. It's scary."

Yang Xi looked at the other sealed coffin with a heavy expression, "Many elderly elderly people here who are alone and alone will prepare a coffin for themselves in case of emergency."

for yourself.

Zhou Chenyu glanced at the coffin with mixed emotions. Although Yang Xi had explained, she still felt too scared to delve into the story underneath.

"Since I did this, I definitely don't want others to know. Let's go out quickly."

Zhou Chenyu walked back quickly as if fleeing, forgetting that there was a thick long bench in front of her. As a result, her calf bone hit the hard head of the bench. The pain made her cover her knees and squat down on the spot, "Hiss." , my feet.”

Yang Xi looked at the bench in front of him, then knelt down and asked, "Did you kick the bench?"

The flickering dim yellow firelight fell on his serious and tense face, but his clear and cold eyes seemed to have a soft light.

Zhou Chenyu bared his teeth and looked at Yang Xi with tears in his eyes. His expression was stunned for a moment. He stared at the enlarged face in front of him and forgot about the pain for a moment.

Seeing that she didn't answer for a long time, Yang Xi raised his eyes and met the direct and passionate eyes, which burned his face like a cluster of flames.

He lowered his eyes, sweat dripping from his palms, "There is enough light outside, I will help you go outside to check the wound."
