Above the nine springs, people rob the earth and the spirit

Chapter 10 Grandma Li

Go out or stay in?
  In fact, it stands to reason that it should be normal for Grandma Li, who has turned into a evil spirit and is irrational, to kill people indiscriminately.

But the mission is to find out why grandma killed her father.

Perhaps this can explain one thing, that is, Grandma Li does not attack indiscriminately.

She still remembered Li Xiaoyue saying that Grandma Li was a psychic medium herself. After all, in this line of work, sometimes she had to help people see something.

Psychic mediums can communicate with ghosts.

Therefore, Grandma Li, who has special abilities, should not be an ordinary NPC like her in the game, but can only become a monster.

Oh wait, did Li Xiaoyue's original words say that she should ask Grandma Li?

You can ask, that means you can communicate?
  The creaking sound outside the door became louder and louder. Bai Tianqing could even feel the scratched sawdust on the wooden board falling to the ground, and he wanted to be scratched through the door.

Taking a deep breath, she stood up, strode forward and opened the door.

There was no one outside the door.

Quiet, dark corridor with no light at all.

There were traces of fingernail scratches on the wooden door, which looked shocking.

The flickering lights in the room grew dimmer and dimmer, until at some point it was all dark.

The air was dead silent, and even the previous movements in the attic disappeared.

The cold wind whistled and hit the glass, making a thumping sound.

Bai Tianqing took a deep breath and decided to head towards the attic.

The pitch-black space, where one could not see his fingers, constantly amplified people's senses. Bai Tianqing pressed his hand on his heart, trying to suppress his heartbeat.

But this is of no avail.

She groped for the stairs and touched the handrail, and then she touched a cold texture that was not like wood at all, a little rough, but a little soft.

Bai Tianqing quickly pulled her hand away, but it was too late. The other party grabbed her wrist with his backhand.

It was indeed a human arm.

Bai Tianqing wanted to struggle, but the other party was surprisingly strong and dragged her upstairs.

She stopped struggling and just stabilized her body to avoid falling.

crunch--

It seemed as if a door was pushed open and she was pulled in.

In the room, an oil lamp was shining faintly. The person next to her let go of her. Bai Tianqing immediately covered her wrist and looked at that person subconsciously.

Her back is a bit stooped and her hair is gray. Who is it if it’s not Grandma Li?

Bai Tianqing was not too surprised, she was just more vigilant.

When she just felt that touch, the first thing that came to her mind was that it might be an old man's arm.

However, Grandma Li now looks gloomy and seems to have a dangerous aura about her, but she does not seem to be irrational.

Sure enough, this is what Li Xiaoyue would say, asking her to ask Grandma Li why she killed Father Li.

While Bai Tianqing was still thinking, Grandma Li's cold voice came through.

"Little girl, where did you come from? Why did you come to my house?"

Bai Tianqing was startled when she heard this. After all, Li's father called her Li Xiaoyue when they were downstairs.

She hesitated and said, "I'm Li Xiaoyue's classmate. She's asking for leave and won't go to school. I'm here to see her."

With that said, she opened her schoolbag, trying to find some evidence.

Perhaps because he didn't come back normally the day before, there was nothing in his schoolbag, only a few papers and his student ID card. When he saw his student ID card, Bai Tianqing breathed a sigh of relief.

She took out her student ID card and showed it to Grandma Li.

Grandma Li's eyes fell on the photo on her student ID card. The short-haired girl still had baby fat on her face. Her pair of almond eyes were the most outstanding feature of her face. She looked a little dull. She then shifted her gaze to Bai Baiqing's face. Compared with the girl in the photo whose eyes were so dull that she didn't look smart, Bai Bai Qing's eyes were bright and firm now. She nodded slowly and said, "Come here."

As she spoke, Grandma Li took the lead and walked towards the old table with the oil lamp.

Bai Tianqing only had time to take a quick look at the attic, and then saw the coffin that should have been in the mourning hall.

In front of the coffin, there is a photo of the deceased.

But the light was very poor. Bai Baiqing couldn't see clearly who was up there, so he subconsciously took a few more glances.

"Don't look, it's me." Grandma Li's eerie voice came.

Bai Tianqing paused and looked at Grandma Li. She had already picked up the oil lamp.

So the light source was down, making her face with crisscrossed grooves look even more frightening. Her eye sockets were deep, as if there were only dark eye sockets, but a little light shone in the depths of the black holes.

"Come here," she said again.

The old voice, the gloomy aura, the fact that he was dead, and the urging words all made people nervous.

But Bai Qing still passed.

She knew very well that she had no ability to resist.

And when she knew that her mother had been here before, she felt an inexplicable sense of peace of mind. She probably wouldn't die here, or so she felt.

She admired her mother very much when she was very young. Although she did not have a father, she never felt regretful because her mother was very powerful and she seemed to be capable of anything.

Of course, after entering middle and high school, she gradually realized that her mother was not really omnipotent.

But that doesn't stop her from still treating her mother as her protector when she's vulnerable, just like she did when she was a child. Every difficulty she encounters, a figure will appear to help her solve it.

It's like she was supposed to die in school yesterday, but now she's standing outside the school.

Bai Tianqing suppressed the sourness in her heart, took a deep breath, stopped three steps away from Grandma Li, and said, "Grandma Li, I have a question for you."

Grandma Li glanced at her and said, "I know what you want to ask, but don't ask it yet."

Bai Tianqing: "..."

"follow me."

Grandma Li turned around and headed towards the end of the attic.

Bai Tianqing followed and watched Grandma Li open a door with a key. Only then did she realize that there was a staircase on the attic side that led directly to the outside of the yard.

This design is very rare.

"Go get me something."

When she reached the stairs downstairs, Grandma Li suddenly gave the oil lamp to Bai Tianqing.

"After you go out, no matter what you see or hear, don't worry about it. Keep moving forward. You will see a river. There is a crooked-neck willow tree by the river. There is a bird's nest on the willow tree, and there is something inside. You take it out.”

Bai Tianqing took the heavy kerosene lamp, looked at Grandma Li, and said, "What is it?"

"I don't know. You'll know it when you see it. After you get it, run back as fast as you can. I'll watch the door for you here."

Bai Tianqing was silent.

She wanted to say no.

"Get it, and I'll tell you what you want to know. Don't worry, with this kerosene lamp here, nothing will happen to you, as long as you don't look around!"

There was no room for rejection in her tone.

Bai Tianqing sighed, she also knew that she had no right to refuse because she was still too weak now.

"Okay, but I have one more request."

During the day, Qing Dingding looked at Grandma Li and said, "I want your psychic skills!"
