"The old man is back!"

Before Mr. Li could say anything, a maid ran out from inside.

The maid shouted, and several doors in the courtyard opened. A few heads stuck out and looked over. There was a little boy of seven or eight years old who wanted to run out, but was hugged back by the woman behind him.

Mr. Li hurriedly ran forward a few steps: "Don't be afraid! I brought a powerful Taoist priest back! He will definitely save us this time!"

He said and smiled flatteringly at the three of them.

Faced with the expectant looks of so many people and the bright eyes of a child, Fang Qingya couldn't get angry even if he was angry, so he could only look at Fatty Fang angrily.

A graceful woman walked out of the yard: "Thank you three Taoist priests, but it is very dangerous here. If there is nothing you can do... just leave! To avoid being trapped like us."

Mr. Li groaned: "Sister-in-law, don't say that. You recognize nephew Fang Shi, he is now a disciple of the Sword Sect! There must be a way!"

Chu Jinsui and Chengfeng looked at each other without speaking.

Fang Qingya really wanted to say that they were trapped now, but saying this now would only cause fear, so he had to swallow it: "Let's take a look around here, you don't need to worry about us, just do your own thing."

That's what they say, but wherever the three of them go, other people's eyes are glued to them.

Chengfeng asked softly: "Sui Sui, is there anything strange here?"

Chu Jinsui hummed: "With the ghost cultivator I met before, I feel like I came from the same sect, with a familiar ghost-killing aura."

Things like breath are quite mysterious.

Some people with sharp five senses can distinguish, while others with dull senses cannot.

She happens to be the former.

"Ah!" the little boy suddenly screamed.

The woman quickly asked: "What's wrong?"

"I...I saw a white shadow running over there!" the child cried.

As soon as he said this, the faces of the group of people suddenly turned pale.

The woman almost couldn't stand still, so she had to squat down and hug the boy: "It's okay, you saw it wrong, don't be afraid, go back to sleep with your mother."

With that said, he took the child back to the room.

Chu Jinsui glanced at the direction the boy pointed: "I'll go take a look."

Chengfeng said, "I'll go with you."

"You should stay." Chu Jinsui shook his head and whispered, "Otherwise I think Fang Qingya might beat up Mr. Li later."

"Okay, then be careful and call us if you have any questions."

"it is good."

In that direction is the garden, but now the flowers inside have long withered, leaving only a dry grassland.

Chu Jinsui walked forward along the bluestone path and unknowingly came to an uninhabited courtyard.

This yard has not been cleaned for who knows how long, and the ground is covered with dead leaves.

There was a house in front of her, and she frowned in confusion.

It felt like... someone was guiding her.

Why bring her to this yard?

She raised her hand and pushed the door open.

The dust accumulated on the door was disturbed and scattered in the air.

There was a thick layer of dust on the tabletop and floor in the room, and it didn't look like it had been occupied for just two months.

This courtyard has been abandoned for at least several years.

"Giggle..."

A burst of laughter suddenly sounded in my ears, which seemed particularly scary in the dark night.

Chu Jinsui turned around, but there was nothing behind her, as if the laughter just now was just her illusion.The moment she turned back, something white seemed to flash across the room.

However, when I looked back again, I still saw a dusty room with nothing out of the ordinary.

Chu Jinsui thought for a while and walked into the room. The door opened behind him and closed with a creak.

Now she was sure that someone was indeed guiding her here.

But what about the purpose?

She felt no ill will, which was the strangest thing.

When she was outside, she could still feel the malicious ghost aura, but when she entered this seemingly scary room, the more powerful ghost aura was isolated, and she just felt that the room was a bit cold.

It’s weird.

"Giggle..."

The laughter started again, echoing in the empty room.

Chu Jinsui carefully determined the direction. The sound... came from above her head!
She raised her head suddenly and faced a pale face.

"Ghost baby..." She was stunned.

I saw a chubby baby wearing a red bellyband lying on the rafter. It looked quite cute, but it was colorless and leaking out for no reason.

The ghost baby chuckled twice and ran away along the beam.

Chu Jinsui wanted to chase after him, but he lost sight in the blink of an eye.

The red color in front of her caught her attention - there was a pair of bright red embroidered shoes on the windowsill.

Everything in this room was covered with dust, except for this pair of embroidered shoes, which were clean, as if they had been cherished and wiped every day.

She picked up the embroidered shoes, opened the door and walked out.

Return to the previous courtyard.

"You're back!" Chengfeng came over, "If you don't come back, I'm going to look for you with Fang Qingya."

Fang Qingya asked: "Did you find anything...what is this?" He saw the embroidered shoes in Chu Jinsui's hand at a glance.

Mr. Li also came out to welcome her. The moment he saw the embroidered shoes in her hand, he rolled his eyes and fainted.

Chu Jinsui glanced at Mr. Li who was lying on the ground: "It seems that there is indeed something hidden."

Chengfeng had a bad impression of this fat man, and immediately snorted: "This guy looks like he's guilty of committing a crime, I'll wake him up."

After saying that, he walked into the room, walked out with a teapot, and poured the tea on Fatty Li who was lying on the ground.

"Ouch, ouch! It's burning me to death!" Mr. Li jumped up from the ground with a start.

Chu Jinsui handed the pair of embroidered shoes to him: "Tell me, what's going on?"

As soon as Mr. Li saw the embroidered shoes, his face turned pale again, but this time he did not faint again. Instead, he lowered his head and sat on the ground not knowing what he was thinking.

Fang Qingya's patience was almost exhausted by him and he kicked him: "Speak quickly!"

Finally, Mr. Li sighed: "This started a long time ago."

The fear on his face has not dissipated: "Before I say anything, can I ask a question?"

Chengfeng rolled his eyes: "You are the only one who has many things to do."

Master Li asked: "So the reason why our house is like this is because of...the owner of these embroidered shoes?"

Chu Jinsui shook his head: "Not necessarily, but the owner of these shoes should be dead."

Her tone was certain because the shoes had the smell of death on them.

"Yes." Mr. Li said, "She is dead."

"These are my last wife's shoes. She died of illness a few years ago. These shoes were worn by her when I got married."

Chu Jinsui asked: "Did you have a child who died in infancy?"
