Chapter 161 The well smells rancid
"Who actually lives in that courtyard?"

I stared into the eyes of the old woman, "When you described Wu Die before, you described it in great detail. But when you went to the side courtyard, you just mentioned it in one word."

"Old madam, you're already very old, so you don't have to lie." Nanny Li said, "A person whose neck is already buried in the loess, what else can't he say?"

After saying this, Nanny Li paused. "Even if your teeth are still strong enough to bite your tongue, but your descendants don't know if they can withstand the torture."

Nanny Li, this is a threat.

However, it worked.

The old woman is in her dying years and is not afraid of death.

But she couldn't ignore her offspring.

"Presumptuous! How can you talk to the old man like that!" I pretended to be displeased and shouted.

"Princess, please calm down, this old servant is talking too much!" Nanny Li hurriedly bowed.

So, I looked at the old woman gently. "Old man, this matter is really important. So, I hope you can tell everything and say everything."

After thinking for a long time, the old woman sighed heavily.

"That house is the dormitory where the master made his wife. Because of my appearance, the master divorced her and helped me upright. And she died there alone."

The old man's eyes were full of guilt. "Even though I am the main wife now, my past status as a concubine still makes me feel bad. Her death has something to do with me. Therefore, I ordered people to stay away from that courtyard. But Xiaodie came After that, she told me that she saw her dead sister. And, she told me a secret that only my sister and I knew. I was terrified and sold her."

Having said that, the old man got up. "If the concubine doesn't mind, the woman will take you there. After hiding for so many years, a person who is almost dead has nothing to be afraid of."

……

Following the old woman, we came to a deserted yard.

Outside, weeds are already overgrown.

The originally dark red door was so decayed that it couldn't tell its color.

There is still moss growing on it.

"Old lady!"

The maid next to her called out cautiously.

"It's okay! Go and inform the steward to prepare the coffin for me."

After finishing speaking, the old woman threw away her crutches and pushed the door open.

Unlike the overgrown weeds outside, the inside is actually clean.

It looked like it was being cleaned regularly.

But a gust of wind with a moldy smell came directly to his face.

I squinted my eyes because of the blowing, but the old woman's silver thread remained motionless.

As soon as I stepped in, I could smell the rancid smell.

So following the smell, I walked to a well covered with stone slabs.

Working together with Nanny Li, they removed the heavy stone slab above.

In an instant, the stench was overwhelming.

"Princess, what's the matter?"

Nanny Li looked at me and seemed to have no smell.

Grab the mouth of the well, and I attached myself.

The moment his eyes dropped, a scream burst from inside.

With a piercing echo, it directly hurt my eardrums.

When I covered my ears subconsciously, a bloody face suddenly emerged from the bottom of the well.

Straight away, it hit my forehead.

But just as I recognized that it was a woman with a blue birthmark on her left face, she fell down again.

He could only watch helplessly as her outstretched hands struggled to disappear into the darkness.

And, accompanied by the sound of water crashing with a 'boom'.

A drop of cold liquid splashed on my face, causing me to retract my body immediately.

At the same time, the smell of corruption in the nasal cavity disappeared.

"You killed her?"

I looked at the old woman sitting in front of the threshold, and said coldly.
