A Guest in a Ghost House

Chapter 177: Eyes in the mist

Views:

There was still noise outside the door, and the fog probably filled several bedrooms and was drifting out from the gaps in the bedrooms. Perhaps because of Mrs. Li and Fenghuang, the fog that entered the main room didn't go far before dissipating.

No one of us was talking, my mother knelt in front of the shrine, talking to herself in a low voice, and I started walking around in the main room again, and I didn’t hear the voice of the Japanese ghost army again, which made me feel very uneasy.

Aunt Li walked up to Fenghuang and whispered something to Fenghuang, Fenghuang has always been indifferent, except when he was a little better when he was with Xueer, he was the same face to everyone at any time, which made me feel embarrassed. To eavesdrop, you can only get as close as possible while walking back and forth.

But I didn't hear any sound, well, I don't have the potential to eavesdrop. However, after a while, Aunt Li called me over and told me that they were going to open the door.

This surprised me a bit, after all, it seems very safe now, but let’s not talk about the weird fog after opening the door, just the Japanese ghost army parked outside made my hair stand on end, but I didn’t object, but Looking at Aunt Li with questioning eyes, I hope he can explain to me.

Before Aunt Li opened her mouth, Fenghuang spoke in a rare way: "The Japanese ghosts outside and the ancestors of this village have obviously reached an inexplicable balance, and no one can help the other. If we go out, we may be able to rely on the villagers The power to directly destroy these Japanese ghosts."

I know that Fenghuang hates the Japanese ghosts. In fact, not only him, but the entire ghost building hates the Japanese ghosts, but this is not the reason for opening the door. I don’t know whether there is a balance of power outside. I know, to be honest, I don’t really care about it. For me, how to ensure the safety of my family is the most important thing, and Phoenix obviously missed the point.

Aunt Li also seemed to have noticed this problem, and directly added: "Xue'er has the ancestral spirit stone to protect her body, and I will protect you, Fenghuang goes out alone, and it is naturally the best to beat these Japanese devils out of their wits." , if it doesn’t work, at least with the help of the villagers, there won’t be any danger. Besides, it’s not an option for us to keep guarding like this.”

I nodded silently. What Aunt Li said was right. If you defend for a long time, you will lose. There is always a thief for a thousand days, not a thief for a thousand days. What's more, there may be a chance to eliminate those who killed my father, brother, and sister-in-law Japanese ghost.

Thinking of my father and the others, I narrowed my eyes slightly, revealing a gleam of coldness.

Aunt Li asked us to stand behind him, while Fenghuang stepped forward and opened the door directly. I thought that after opening the door, we would see countless fog or Japanese troops standing neatly, but when Fenghuang opened the door, there was nothing outside. Nothing, not even the constant uproar had stopped.

The whole village didn't even have dogs barking and insects screaming, and it was terribly quiet, but Fenghuang didn't care about it, and walked out directly. The moment Fenghuang stepped out of the door, mist from nowhere suddenly appeared, blowing from all directions. Come on, surround Fenghuang directly, so that I can only see a red outline, and this outline is still slowly going away.

Aunt Li took a small step forward and then backed away, but she just looked at the direction where the Phoenix disappeared and secretly guarded herself. It's strange, the fog outside is very dense, but only a little enters the main room, and it will dissipate soon after entering, which makes me feel relieved a lot.

After Fenghuang went out, there was no sound outside, the whole world was only the murmur of my mother, and I only heard it intermittently when I got closer. My mother was begging for the blessings of the ancestors and the deceased father. I hope this time Xueer can Every bad luck turns good, and every death becomes good luck. I suddenly looked towards the mist outside, could my father and brother be among those ancestors who protected us

As soon as this idea appeared, it grew wildly in my mind, making me tremble uncontrollably. Aunt Li looked at me strangely and comforted me not to be afraid. I took a few deep breaths to calm myself down. I can’t ask now. , I can’t say, I can’t give my mother a hope that I don’t even know exists.

Just when I finally calmed down, the mist outside had changed, and it was rolling violently. There were traces visible to the naked eye. I knew that this was Phoenix's attack. Unfortunately, there was still no sound. I can't judge the current situation.

I could only look at the fog billowing outside. At this moment, I had an urge to rush out. Yes, I rushed out. I was holding the armrest of one of the chairs, my hands were already bruised, and my face was congested with excitement. Wine red, very hot.

Aunt Li held my hand, and when I looked over, she used her eyes to signal me not to move. Aunt Li's hand is not as cold as a ghost's hand. Although there is no heat, it is not cold, but there is a strange feeling. The power is in it, let me gradually calm down.

The phoenix came back. There were some damages on the red clothes, but as the phoenix approached, the clothes were recovering quickly. When the phoenix came to us, the red clothes had been restored as before.

"How?" I asked anxiously, only then did I realize that my voice had become very hoarse at some point.

A strange smile appeared on Fenghuang's indifferent face, like someone who had never smiled before was pulling his cheeks. I don't know if Fenghuang is laughing or what. His expression makes me completely unable to understand what he wants to express. Fenghuang seems to know this too. There is a flash of embarrassment and shame in his eyes, and then he points to the door.

Outside the door, the fog was slowly dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye. I could already vaguely see the situation in the courtyard. I couldn't help being excited and said, "I, we won, won?"

Fenghuang nodded, and then sat on the chair with a little tiredness, while my mother hurriedly kowtowed to thank the ancestors, Aunt Li smiled heartily and said to me: "You should also thank your ancestors, no If they say it, Phoenix will not be able to give it its all."

I nodded fiercely, then knelt down in front of the tablet engraved with the heaven, earth, king, relatives and teachers, and kowtowed respectfully, but what I didn't expect was that after I kowtowed three heads, there was a toothache creaking sound. Issued from the tablet.

Then, under my amazed gaze, countless small cracks appeared on the tablet, and the cracks gradually became larger. With a sound of "pop", the wooden tablet just split into several halves and fell off.

"Impossible." Fenghuang stood up all of a sudden, a look of panic appeared on his indifferent face for the first time, while I was completely stunned, I just looked at the tablet stupidly, and then looked back to the outside where the entire courtyard had been exposed. The mist that was still dissipating came out.

I don't know if it's my hallucination, but I saw a vague shadow in the mist. I don't know if it's human, but that shadow has a pair of blue eyes and is smiling at me.

It was a weird smile, although I didn't even see his face, but I knew it was a smile!
