It was not until the sky turned dark that Fu Yunjing woke up. He probed the seat beside him, it was empty... Fu Yunjing immediately turned over and sat up. It was raining harder outside the window, banging against the window. There were no lights, no Su Lingshui, and no sound in the room. Only the sound of rain outside the window made people feel a chill in their hearts.
"Mr. Su?" Fu Yunjing called out in a low voice.
And no one answered.
Fu Yunjing immediately changed his mouth: "Su Lingshui?"
Still no one answered.
Fu Yunjing couldn't help frowning. After living in this ancient castle for so long, he wouldn't be taken away by ghosts, right? But even if he thought so, Fu Yunjing walked to the door without hesitation, and pressed the light switch twice. no response.
Fu Yunjing pushed open the door.
An extremely huge shadow stood in front of him, and there was a faint light outside, but Fu Yunjing could no longer see his shadow, as if he was swallowed by this dark shadow.
Fu Yunjing's face turned cold, and he shouted sharply, "Who?"
The shadow moved slightly. Because the other party's figure is really huge, it can easily make people feel fearful. Fu Yunjing's face was even colder, and he reached out to catch it, but it was empty. The hostility in Fu Yunjing's eyes gradually emerged...
There was a crisp sound of "pop", the light came on, and the huge black shadow disappeared without a trace.
"what are you doing?"
Fu Yunjing turned his head and looked over - it was Su Lingshui, still wearing that nightgown, standing there clean and slender against the wall, when Su Lingshui's eyes fell on him, Fu Yunjing had an unstoppable feeling.
In just one second, Fu Yunjing returned to normal: "Where have you been? I thought you were taken away by a ghost."
"Going to find something to eat."
Fu Yunjing walked to Hang Qing's side and grabbed Hang Qing's arm. Hang Qing didn't dodge and let him grab him.
It is truly in the hand, flesh and blood. The light in Fu Yunjing's eyes flickered, he let go of his hand and smiled and said, "Have you met any evil ghosts on the road?"
Hang Qing nodded: "I met him, but I can't do anything about it."
"Let's go, I'll accompany you to find something to eat."
"No, go to Le Tong first. They may not be able to make it through."
The expression on Fu Yunjing's face was strange for a moment, he said lightly: "With Yin Jiayan following, nothing will happen."
"Two girls, he can't protect them."
Hang Qing has already said this, and Fu Yunjing can only grit his teeth and answer: "then go, I'll be with you." It's just that Fu Yunjing's face shows a bit of bitterness and hatred. Hang Qing gave him a funny look and walked in front.
"Wait, come here..." Fu Yunjing stopped him.
Hang Qing turned his head and looked at Fu Yunjing suspiciously.
Fu Yunjing took a long leg and walked to Hang Qing's side with a few steps, then grabbed Hang Qing's arm again and said, "This is safer."
Hang Qing's brows and eyes were indifferent: "well."
The two of them went to the third floor.
The higher you go, the clearer the footsteps that fall into your ears. Hang Qing said, "it's Le Tong."
"How do you know?" The expression on Fu Yunjing's face turned sour.
"Le Tong is small and his steps are lighter. Yin Jiayan is tall and his steps should be heavier. Ruan Ying has just been seriously ill, so her steps will not be so fast."
"You know..." Fu Yunjing said sourly, and suddenly changed his voice: "I am taller than Yin Jiayan."
Hang Qing: "???"
Fu Yunjing didn't care about Hang Qing's reaction. After saying these words, the look on his face looked much better. Emotions change so fast. Truly a young man.
They went upstairs.
A black shadow came straight out of the corner.
The lights here are relatively dim, and the other party glanced at them and screamed in fright, probably thinking that there were wolves in front of them and tigers in the back.
"Le Tong, it's me." Hang Qing said.
"Mr. Su?!" There was two surprises in Le Tong's voice.
Fu Yunjing: "And me."
"Senior!" Le Tong's voice was even more pleasant, and she walked to the two of them without hesitation. Now that she got closer, she finally confirmed that the people in front of her were indeed Su Lingshui and Fu Yunjing.
However, at this moment, Hang Qing keenly noticed that Le Tong's eyes changed slightly when he looked at him, which seemed a little weird. Le Tong suspects him? No, not possible. If Le Tong suspects that he is a ghost, it will be more obvious.
The ghost who had been chasing after Le Tong from behind also followed, revealing his true colors.
It was a middle-aged man in a gardener's clothes. Half of the man's body was scorched, giving off a bloody and burnt smell. His face also seemed to have been burned, showing twisted purple scars, and the scars around his eyes. The skin was melted, and only two mung bean-like eyes were left, dark...
Hang Qing felt a little scary.
He closed his eyes unconsciously.
Fu Yunjing held his hand tightly: "Don't be afraid."
The male ghost seemed to think that the food was right in front of him, and he was about to get it, so there was nothing to worry about. The male ghost stared at them, laughed savagely, and made a cooing sound in his throat, and he slowly approached them.
"We have to run..." Le Tong swallowed and said.
Hang Qing caught a glimpse of the hostility on Fu Yunjing's face, and at that moment, he had the feeling that Fu Yunjing would pounce on him and shred the male ghost. But Fu Yunjing held back in the end, he dragged Hang Qing and ran downstairs. Le Tong was stunned for a moment, and the tall image of the senior instantly collapsed from her heart.
"Wait for me!" Le Tong chased after crying without tears.
The male ghost didn't expect them to turn around and run off guard, paused for a while before chasing after them.
Several people launched a pursuit battle in the castle again.
Fu Yunjing really wanted to get rid of Le Tong, and Hang Qing also saw this. After all, in the original plot, Fu Yunjing had no pity and love for Le Tong, so it is not surprising that he would do such a move. But there is also something different from the original plot, that is, Yin Jiayan is not with Le Tong! Without the blessing of force value, Le Tong can't stand alone, whether it is out of the task or out of the most basic human empathy, he is very reluctant to watch Le Tong go to death.
Whenever Fu Yunjing walked too fast, Hang Qing would give him a hand, Fu Yunjing had to slow down so that Le Tong could keep up with them.
Le Tong was panting.
"I... I... can't run, can't run..." After just two days of torture, Le Tong's physical strength could no longer support it.
Hang Qing kicked open the door at hand: "come in!"
Le Tong hurriedly followed and got in.
The door was quickly closed tightly.
Just after waiting in, Le Tong was slightly stunned.
This is... this is the room she broke into by mistake.
The house belonged to a man named Herman Dreiser.
