I played the world alone

Chapter 471 Acting? (-in-)

Immediately afterwards, the second and third screams came.

And getting closer.

Yu Hongyan, who was concentrating on watching these experts cast spells but was interrupted, looked unhappy. He stood up and looked in the direction of the sound.

I happened to see a few maids running over in a hurry, looking frightened, as if they had seen something terrible.

The butler on the side couldn't help seeing the chaos, especially Mr. Yu's face, which was a bit ugly, which shocked him. Didn't he fail to manage it well when Mr. Yu saw it?

Without waiting for instructions, he rushed forward to block the escaping maids. He looked so fierce that he almost kicked them.

"What are you doing! Didn't you see the master here? How can you run and jump like this..."

Only then did the maids see Yu Hongyan standing behind the housekeeper. They quickly stopped and greeted him carefully and respectfully, but they still looked back from time to time, with a bit of unconcealable fear on their faces.

"Go back to the housekeeper, we just saw a ghost over there... over there!"

"ghost?!"

Yu Hongyan's face suddenly became even more ugly, and there was a bit of fear in his eyes.

He has not forgotten the horrific scene yesterday, and he may even never forget it in this life!

"Where? Where is the ghost?!"

Before the housekeeper could ask any more questions, Mr. Yu shouted as if he was greatly irritated, which frightened him.

"Master, please don't worry. Maybe these maids are dazzled and saw the wrong thing. I'll have someone go take a look..."

The housekeeper wanted to give some advice, but Yu Hongyan waved him away with a stern face: "Don't talk nonsense. I don't know if there is a ghost?"

"Hurry up and call all the guards, as well as these experts. Today I am going to slay the demons!"

As he spoke, he suddenly recalled the appearance of his wife's ghost he had seen before, but he soon felt cruel in his heart.

"So what if it's really her dead soul? I'm going to kill her relatives today and beat her soul to pieces!"

After all, the housekeeper has never seen a ghost with his own eyes. Based on past experience, he always feels that someone is deliberately pretending to be a ghost, so he feels somewhat confident. He feels that Master Yu's reaction is too exaggerated, but he can't say it directly. He just laughs secretly in his heart. After a while, he called the Master to go and have a look together.

Although it was the middle of the night, there were still people patrolling the night. In a short time, a dozen strong servants and three guards with swords had gathered.

This power is enough to defeat a real gangster.

Of course, the most important thing is the six experts who applied.

The butler smiled and stepped forward to tell these experts not to continue.

"There happens to be a ghost appearing right now. It's a good opportunity for you to show off your skills! Whoever can be the first to capture the ghost later will be our guest in the house!"

He drew the pie without hesitation, but at this time Yu Hongyan said in a deep voice from behind: "As long as you can take it with your own hands, I will reward you with a hundred taels of gold!"

"hiss!"

Everyone present took a breath, and those who knew each other looked at each other, and could see the shock in each other's eyes.

The governor is really willing to spend a lot of money. This much money is enough for them to live a stable and wealthy life for the rest of their lives!

Even the maids who were scared and ran away just now couldn't help but feel a little excited, and even felt that it would be great if they could muster up the courage to deal with the ghosts.

Of course, they were just thinking about it. Recalling what they had just seen, they were so frightened that their legs weakened. They dared to stand here just because they were afraid of making the master angry and punished, otherwise they would have run away long ago.

The butler promptly gave the Taoist priest he arranged a look, and the other party nodded slightly, full of confidence.

They had been fully prepared before coming here, and they were guaranteed to frighten the Lord into a daze, and they would worship him as a god!

Of course, he won't stay here for a long time. After making money, he will quickly find an excuse to escape. Otherwise, those small tricks will only be used once or twice. If you see too much, they will be exposed soon.

After all, it is impossible for Yu Hongyan to be a fool for such a big official.

But similarly, several other experts who had the courage to come here also had similar thoughts.

Now they were harboring evil intentions, and they looked at each other disapprovingly, planning to see who could make the governor believe that he was the most powerful "living god" later.

Everyone is bound to win this huge reward!

After all the people were gathered, the housekeeper immediately led the people in the direction where the maids said the ghosts were. Yu Hongyan hesitated for a moment and looked at the dark surroundings. Even though there were a few lanterns and a few maids, Accompanying me, I was still very panicked, and finally followed along.

The place where the maids ran just now was in the direction of the kitchen. They were probably preparing a late-night snack for several senior men as ordered.

But when a group of people arrived, they found that although the lights were bright, no one was seen.

If you look closely, you can see a lot of blood stains on the ground and chicken and duck feathers that have not been cleaned up. There is a burnt smell coming from the pot that is being boiled over a high fire. It is probably because no one has taken care of it and it is no longer edible.

"Where are the people? Have they all run away?" The housekeeper looked around with a cold face.

Don't talk about ghosts, I didn't even see anyone!

The maids who followed behind said aggrievedly: "The cooks responsible for cooking have already run away, and they don't know where they are hiding now."

"A bunch of cowards!" The housekeeper felt that this group of people had made him even more embarrassed in front of the master, and he became even more angry.

If the master hadn't been watching from behind, he would have wanted to go up and slap each of them.

But at this moment, he could only suppress his temper and send people to search everywhere.

Then he put on a flattering expression and approached Yu Hongyan.

"Master, I guess the ghost was frightened away when he saw so many of us coming. He was so energetic."

Yu Hongyan frowned and was about to speak when he suddenly heard a questioning voice coming from the side.

"No! According to me, the ghost should still be here..."

"It's just that you can't see it with your naked eyes. Maybe if we don't pay attention, we will start harming people again."

Hearing that someone was disrupting the situation, the housekeeper cursed in his heart. When he turned around, he saw the woman dressed as a goddess holding a strange gesture in front of her forehead and mumbling something.

As expected of a veteran, this drama was really well performed!

Seeing that Yu Hongyan's attention had been attracted, he was anxious and immediately hinted at his person with his eyes.

The Taoist priest immediately said: "But there is no need to worry. I will set up a formation here when the path is reached to attract the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire. I will definitely burn his soul to ashes and prevent him from reincarnation forever!"

This is quite harsh, and may not be bearable in other people's ears, but it suits Yu Hongyan's taste.

This is indeed something that the housekeeper has studied before.

Sure enough, Mr. Yu immediately showed a somewhat satisfied smile and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay! This is what we should do! Since that ghost dares to come to my house to cause trouble, she must know the consequences!" "The rest of you, too. We must learn a lesson and never treat these harmful beasts lightly!"

When the governor spoke, others naturally could only agree and dare not talk back, but it was a pity that they missed the opportunity.

Sure enough, the next opportunity to "kill ghosts" was given to the Taoist Priest.

Other experts secretly said that it was terrible.

If this guy really has the means to satisfy Master Yu, they won't even have the chance to perform in the future.

Just when I was thinking about finding a way to trip him up, the Taoist priest had already started his performance.

The approximate number of steps is actually the same as before, except that the location has been changed from the reception hall to the kitchen.

But at this moment, the Taoist priest actually pinched a decisive treasure.

When he throws these mysterious powders out, heavenly fire will automatically rain down. The colors are so gorgeous that it will definitely make people dizzy and convinced on the spot!

This trick has been tried many times before, and everyone who sees him will call him "immortal master". This time, he will do it again, and run away as soon as he gets a vote.

Just when he was shaking his hand, intending to attract the sky fire, his eyes suddenly flashed, and he accidentally saw a long-haired woman wearing a shabby white dress standing in the corner of the kitchen that was supposed to be empty.

His whole body was wet, his hair mixed with a few water plants was still dripping, and a large puddle of water had accumulated under his feet, as if he had just climbed out of the river.

She just stood there with her head lowered, motionless, looking particularly psychedelic in the dim yellow candlelight, as if she was covered with a layer of mist.

The Taoist priest couldn't help but pause. His head that he had just turned around suddenly turned back. He subconsciously took a closer look to make sure that he had seen it correctly.

Immediately he looked back at the housekeeper, as if he wanted to ask this man what was going on.

Didn't someone check it just now? There should be no one here!

Others didn't notice the strange woman in the corner at first. After all, the light here was not very good, and there were a lot of firewood and cupboards stacked in the corner, so it was easy for people to ignore her.

It wasn't until the Taoist priest turned his head and looked at him with his eyes that they noticed him one after another.

Then, a question mark appeared in their minds.

"Who is this?"

Why are you here at this time?

But the governor standing behind everyone suddenly screamed, his voice trembling: "Ghost! That's a ghost! Taoist priest, she is still here! Cast a spell to kill her!"

Although the appearance of this female ghost at this time was completely different from that of his real wife that he saw last night, the feeling she gave him was almost the same.

It was cold and cold, even more terrifying than seeing a nest of hundreds of venomous snakes gathered together. Even the heart seemed to be grasped by a cold hand, making people breathless!

The moment he saw the other person, goosebumps stood up on his skin.

No need to even guess, this must be a ghost!

As soon as these words came out, other people's expressions changed instantly.

"ghost?!"

Everyone looked in that direction with horror on their faces.

Looking again, the maids who were following him just now had already escaped without knowing when.

The Taoist priest was also confused. He stared at the wet figure with wide eyes. He froze for a moment, not knowing how to react.

"Is this...real or fake?"

Or is it actually a fake ghost arranged by the butler in advance, and is standing here to match his performance?

And there were other experts who had similar doubts to him.

They were really startled when they first heard Mr. Yu's shout, but when they thought about it carefully, they felt something was wrong.

Such a coincidence?

Did they just run into each other when they arrived?

I can't help but start to guess that this might be this person's back-up plan!

"What a great trick! And I think this person must have someone inside the house, so he can arrange for someone to be hidden here in advance, so that Master Yu can trust his abilities even more..."

They couldn't help but feel a little jealous. It seemed that the reward this time had nothing to do with them.

But the strange thing is that the Taoist priest's reaction was a bit stiff, a bit like the actors on the stage who suddenly forgot what the next line was in the middle of the performance and got stuck.

After being stunned for a while, he stammered and shouted: "You are so bold and sneaky, why don't you hurry up..."

The sound suddenly stopped. His eyes focused on the shadowless wall behind the woman, and his pupils trembled violently.

The others were confused, and Yu Hongyan was dissatisfied and loudly urged him to take action. The next second, he heard the Taoist leader scream in agony.

Before anyone could react, the Taoist priest dropped everything in his hands and ran out the door with fear on his face.

"Ghost!"

The housekeeper reacted quickly and quickly tried to stop him with his hand. He was angry in his heart but still pretended to be confused on his face: "Taoist Priest, we invited you to get rid of ghosts..."

"That's a real ghost!"

The Taoist priest directly kicked the housekeeper away, knocking him to the ground and screaming in pain. By the time he got up, the Taoist priest had already run away.

"Damn bastard!" He yelled, but the next second, he felt cold and wet on his back, as if there was rain dripping in from the gap in his collar above his head.

He was stunned for a moment and saw everyone around him looking behind him in horror. Then he vaguely realized something and turned his head little by little like a puppet.

Sure enough, he saw the woman covered in water who should have been in the corner of the kitchen now standing behind him, her scattered hair falling on his shoulders as she lowered her head, and she could clearly smell the water-soaked woman. There is no fishy smell that has not been dried.

His constricted and trembling pupils slowly moved upward, just enough to see the face of the woman who was almost sticking to his back.

It was pale and swollen, and at the same time it looked like it had been swollen and deformed by water. The whole body was obviously abnormally enlarged. At the same time, streams of yellowish-brown disgusting liquid mixed with a few strands of blood were constantly flowing out of various facial holes.

When he looked over, he happened to meet a pair of protruding white-white eyes that seemed ready to fall off at any time, staring straight at him.

"what!"

The housekeeper screamed, and a foul smell came from his lower body. Then he rolled his eyes and fainted to the ground.
