Nightmare Apostle

Tong Han turned around and saw Mi Shu leaning on Liu Haiping's shoulder, sniffing constantly with her nose.

"Where?" Liu Haiping was a little surprised, "Why didn't I smell it?"

Seeing this, Tong Han also walked over, imitating Mi Shu's movements, and put his face against Liu Haiping's shoulder. After smelling carefully for a while, he did smell a smell, but the smell was very light and disappeared almost instantly. , Tong Han reached out and touched it, and found a small patch of wetness near Liu Haiping's right shoulder. "Did you touch the water?" Mi Shu raised her head and asked.

Liu Haiping was stunned, "No, I've been with you all the time. Today... I didn't drink much water today."

As if thinking of something, Tong Han suddenly raised his head and looked above his head, but there was no dripping water on the roof.

There was no water stain on the ground beneath my feet.

After calming down, she just said that she was scaring herself. When she came to the nightmare world, Tong Han had to be vigilant. Suddenly, she recalled the previous scene in the Buddhist hall, and immediately said: "When the patriarch's daughter hugged you, her head Is it probably at this location?”

After Tong Han reminded her, Liu Haiping remembered it and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it's almost here. She was crying and screaming at that time. I thought she was going to kill me, but she scared me to death."

Mi Shu immediately understood what Tong Han meant and couldn't help but frown, "So this piece was wet with the tears of the patriarch's daughter?"

"It's not tears, it's saliva." Tong Han corrected, "The patriarch's daughter didn't cry at all. She seemed very excited."

It is true that human saliva has some odor, but after carefully recalling the smell before, Tong Han still felt that something was not right.

He came up again and smelled it, but this time the weird smell had completely disappeared. After closing his eyes, the scenes in the Buddhist hall replayed in Tong Han's mind. Suddenly, Tong Han remembered the old woman who had been the housekeeper. The patriarch's daughter stuffed some herbs into her mouth.

"Crunch——"

The door was suddenly pushed open, startling the three of them. Perhaps because they were too focused on thinking about the problem before, none of the three actually heard the footsteps approaching. The old housekeeper woman walked in with a red dress in her arms. That’s it for tonight.

Under the command of the old housekeeper, the two helped Liu Haiping put on the red wedding dress, then sat down in front of the dressing table to put on makeup.

Realizing that Tong Han Mi Shu didn't know how to use rouge and gouache, the old housekeeper took matters into her own hands. Mi Shu volunteered to help, and at the same time drove Tong Han away with a rather disgusting attitude, "You don't know how to apply makeup, so don't get in the way here, hide." Can it be further away?”

Seeing that the housekeeper didn't respond, Tong Han took the initiative to step back and stay away from the dressing table. The moment their eyes met, he understood the other person's intentions. Mi Shu came to distract the housekeeper, while Tong Han took the opportunity. Leave and look for clues nearby.

But just when Tong Han was about to walk out of the room, he was suddenly called, and the housekeeper's cold voice was even a bit harsh, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going out to get some fresh air." Tong Han replied calmly.

"No, you have to abide by the rules here when you enter the gate of my Du family. This is not your small family.

You are allowed to do whatever you want! "

Being scolded by the housekeeper, Tong Han could only stay in the room. When the housekeeper lowered his head to put on makeup again, Tong Han's eyes searched back and forth in the room. Except for the weird decoration, this was a regular boudoir, with everything it should have. have.

Carefully carved wooden beds, tables and chairs, elegant dressing tables, vases and flower stands, calligraphy and paintings, and a screen on the other side of the room. There are four paintings on the screen, corresponding to the four scenes of spring, summer, autumn and winter, both in terms of composition and composition. The intention is to be the best.

Looking away, the more Tong Han thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Something seemed to be missing in the boudoir. She quickly checked the room, hoping to find the missing thing. Finally, she thought that there was an essential thing missing in the boudoir.

Wardrobe.

There is no wardrobe in this room!

This made no sense at all. The next second, Tong Han stared at the screen in the room. The screen was large and tilted to one side of the room. Only behind the screen was the blind spot. If there was a wardrobe, it must be behind the screen.

At the same time, Tong Han saw that the placement of the screen was not right. Normally, the boudoir was a private place for women who had not left the palace. In ancient times, people were not allowed to visit or even approach the boudoir, especially from wealthy families. In order to ensure privacy, a screen will be placed behind the boudoir door, so that even when the door is opened and closed, only the screen can be seen from the outside.

Tong Han also knows a thing or two about Feng Shui. The screen should be upright rather than slanted. However, the screen in the room is slanted to one side of the room, blocking the corner. The two walls plus the screen just constitute a "bad spot". Feng Shui It is also called the hidden place in the study. Over time, it is easy to accumulate evil spirits and attract some dirty things.

Seeing that Liu Haiping's makeup was almost finished, Tong Han knew that there was not much time left for her, so he pretended to be taking a walk and walked towards the screen.

There is a window about two meters away from the screen, but it is closed at the moment. There is also a white word "囍" stuck on it. The word is impartial and just sticks to the gap of the window, sealing the window.

When she came to the window, with her peripheral vision through the gap between the screen and the wall, she saw a large wardrobe standing behind the screen.

The wardrobe was completely dark, high enough for a person to stand in, and very wide. Tong Han's first impression was that it didn't look like a wardrobe, but more like a coffin.

Moreover, there is a strong-looking copper lock hanging in the middle of the wardrobe.

This wardrobe is locked.

"What are you looking at?"

Suddenly, a cold voice exploded in the room. The old housekeeper did not turn around. Through the reflection of the mirror, a pair of eyes full of resentment were staring at Tong Han.

"I'm asking you a question, what are you looking at?!" The old housekeeper's voice became higher and higher, and her voice became more and more sharp.

"It's stuffy in the room, I'll come to the window to get some fresh air." Tong Han's voice was not weak at all, and he even looked at the old housekeeper through the mirror. "Also, let me remind you that although we are here to escape the disaster, we are also guests invited in by the head of your Du family and the head's wife. You, a servant, are you talking to the guests of the host family like this?"

"We are helping all of you villagers, saving your lives and the life of your young lady. If you don't welcome us, ask the head of the Du family or the head's wife to drive us away, otherwise shut up."

Tong Han didn't give the old housekeeper any face at all when he said these words. Mi Shu and Liu Haiping's hair stood up when they heard it, and they didn't dare to breathe. Liu Haiping felt more directly. She noticed that the old housekeeper next to her was shaking with anger, and her head was shaking at a very strange frequency.

For some reason, Liu Haiping suddenly had a strange feeling in her heart, as if the head of the housekeeper was about to fall off her neck in the next second.
