Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 269 Demonstration
Not to mention the impact of this extra meal on Nan Surou's reputation, the so-called haunting is enough to shake the hearts of Su Yuexuan.

Nan Surou couldn't just let it go, she said to Xia Shi with a cold expression: "Come on, I'll go and have a look with you, I really want to see where this ghost came from."

When Xia Shi heard that Nan Surou actually said that he was going to see a ghost, he immediately said in a trembling voice: "Miss...I'm afraid this is inappropriate?"

"What's wrong? I just want to tell you today, your lady, I'm not afraid of ghosts." Nan Surou chuckled lightly.

Dong Liu held Xia Shi's collar, pulled her forcefully, and followed Nan Surou out of the room.

The three of them walked straight through the windy corridor.

Nan Surou walked ahead without showing the slightest expression of fear.

ghost?

Nan Surou couldn't help curling her lips. She also died once, so is she also a ghost?How can you be afraid of yourself?

The moonlight was shining on the ground, and the empty and quiet courtyard, coupled with the cool night breeze, always made people feel a little uneasy.

Xia Shi groaned and followed Dong Liu staggeringly.

Nan Surou has been walking in the forefront. They stepped on the intricate roots of the banyan tree, passed through the blooming beauty cherry blossom garden, surrounded by wild vines, these ancient plants are thicker than Nan Surou's arm.

Su Yuexuan was originally a piece of wasteland, which was built by Kanehu in order to buy a residence for Nan Surou. Except for the plants and flowers that needed to be removed, everything else remained.

The whole yard is filled with the fragrance of earth and leaves, the smell of decaying dead branches and leaves, and the sweet aroma of fermented flowers and plants.

Layers of branches and leaves block the bright moonlight, and the light breaks through the leaves on the ground to form a mottled lake.

The three entered a small clearing.

Dongliu suddenly sent a secret voice transmission: "That thing is still following us, miss, did you hear that?"

"Pretending to be a ghost, you must not dare to show up casually, just wait and see what happens." Nan Surou responded softly.

Xia Shi didn't know that Nan Surou was communicating with Dongliu in secret, but felt chilly all over, and the fear in his heart grew bigger and bigger.

Suddenly, a crisp sound sounded, as if some dishes had been thrown to the ground and shattered. The sound pierced the silent night sky and scared Xia Shi out of his wits, making him feel cold all over.

Nan Surou was vigilant, and suddenly saw a ray of light flashing by under the cherry tree in the distance, and she suddenly raised her foot to chase after it.

The cherry grove has been around for some years. Because the area inside the Suyuexuan courtyard wall needs to be expanded, some undeveloped groves have remained. Such a large place is just vacant, and the wind blows through the grove , making a whining sound, like an ancient tomb.

Nan Surou ran forward, Dongliu chased after her carrying Xia Shi, and saw a row of old houses standing in the middle of the dense cherry grove, which probably existed before Su Yuexuan was built The building, because it is not used on weekdays, has long been abandoned.

The moonlight at midnight is icy cold and white, and what greets the eyes is a world of black and white. This place is more like a cemetery than the open space just now...

The surroundings seemed silent and cold, and occasionally the soft sound of leaves flapping in the wind could be heard.

Nan Surou walked forward cautiously, looked at the swaying door, snorted coldly, picked up her skirt, and kicked open the old door roughly.

With a sound of "bang--", the door was opened, and under the moonlight, it seemed that the room was dark and more ghostly.

Xia Shi saw that Nan Surou seemed to intend to enter, so he couldn't help but tremblingly opened his mouth to stop, "Miss, don't go in..."

Dong Liu said indifferently in her ear to shut up, and stopped looking at her.

Seeing that Nan Surou didn't turn her head back, she looked around and stepped into the door.

Nan Surou's expression was indifferent and her aura was overwhelming. She wasn't afraid of anything. What she was afraid of was that someone was like a hunter preparing a trap for the prey. She didn't want to step on a "mouse trap".

The house is empty, leaving blank spaces where the furniture used to be, probably because Nan Surou asked to sell the useless old things in the house, so the dilapidated furniture that existed here have already been moved out, so that It takes a bit of effort to set a trap in an open space.

Dong Liu followed with Xia Shi in her arms, seeing Nan Surou stopped in her tracks, she couldn't help calling out: "Miss?"

"It's okay." Nan Surou said in a deep voice.

"Miss, is there a ghost?" Xia Shi asked tremblingly in a low voice.

"Ghost?" Nan Surou sneered, "It's afraid of me, so it doesn't dare to show up."

Xia Shi felt a cold war all over his body.

Dong Liu lifted her up with some disdain, and said: "Xia Shi, you are the lady's maid, don't look like a worthless person, you are human, you are not a ghost, what are you afraid of? The person who pretends to be a ghost is nothing but It's Xiao Xiao who dare not show his face."

"But...but there are rumors among the servants that there are a lot of wronged souls in this mansion recently." Xia Shi finally couldn't help but speak out her heart, and after she finished speaking, she still looked at Nan Surou with some fear.

Nan Surou finally turned her head to look at Xia Shi, with a contemptuous smile on her face: "Oh? Wronged soul? Xia Shi, do you know what a wronged soul is?"

"Ghosts... aren't they just ghosts that become after death?" Xia Shi shrank his neck.

"Ghosts, commonly known as ghosts, usually refer to the souls of people who died in vain. If a person was wronged and killed before his life, he will wander around the world if he cannot be reincarnated after death, looking for kind people to avenge his grievances, or directly to the murderer. His people will take revenge." Nan Surou chuckled lightly.

Hearing this, Xia Shi lowered his head.

Nan Surou turned her eyes, and said again: "Xia Shi, look, this ghost who came to Su Yuexuan today, the one who hides his head and shows his tail does not dare to show up, it only shows one thing, he can only come here Find me to avenge him."

"Ah?" Xia Shi was still terrified, his face turned pale, and he didn't understand what Nan Surou said.

"Think about it, the wronged soul either invites kind-hearted people to avenge him, or takes revenge on the person who killed him. I am standing here, but he has not acted. This means that he does not want to kill me. I am not The target of his revenge." Nan Surou chuckled lightly, and continued: "If someone insists on saying that the ghost came to seek revenge on me, that would be really ridiculous, people are [-]% afraid of ghosts, but ghosts are [-]% afraid of people Wrong souls, right? They don’t cherish life by themselves when they’re alive, and they can’t change their cowardly and incompetent personality after they die. No matter how powerful these ghosts are, they are bullying and afraid of hard people. They only pick soft persimmons. Don't dare to do anything."

After finishing speaking, Nan Surou looked back at the empty room, and said: "I don't care if you came to avenge your grievances or revenge, if you don't look for me in a dignified manner, I won't pay any attention to you. If you come out, I will Maybe I'll give you a 'scared' look."

After Nan Surou finished speaking, the whole room fell into a strange silence.

After a moment of waiting for a response, Nan Surou turned her head to look at Dongliu, as if she was leisurely saying: "Dongliu, you will go to the yard to publicize tomorrow, and say that the wronged soul came to me to avenge tonight, but it is a pity that you are afraid of me If you don’t dare to show up, tell the people in other courtyards to discuss more in your own courtyard, and say, I, Nan Surou, are waiting for all the wronged souls to come to Suyuexuan to avenge their grievances. As long as they dare to come and can afford the price, I will Definitely help them."

Dong Liu responded blankly, but Xia Shi just found it incredible.

Nan Surou looked at Xia Shi's frightened appearance, her expression remained unchanged, and said, "Let's go."
