Chapter 291 Two women
The woman's cry was not loud, but it was not small either.Not only Pei Zimo, who has amazing hearing, heard it, but even Qingzhu heard it.

The two looked at each other, both extremely surprised.

Those who appeared in the abandoned garden of Zhenxihou Mansion at this time could not have come to play.The Zhenxihou Mansion, which has been abandoned for many years, is already a bit gloomy. In addition, too many people have died. The mansion used to be filled with blood. Even beggars from the city would not come here during the day, let alone at night?
So at this moment, those who appeared here and cried aloud, most of them came to comfort the souls of the dead.

But, besides Pei Zimo, who else would come to pay homage to the souls of the Pei family who died so violently?
Could it be that besides Pei Zimo, there are other survivors in Zhenxihou Mansion?
However, when Pei Zimo fled to Ningzhou, there were still people chasing and killing him. There was no reason why He Shidao would let the 'survivors' in Shangjing go.

What's more, when Zhenxihou's mansion was destroyed, apart from the mother, aunt, and aunt, there were only two young cousins ​​under the age of three among the female family members of the Hou's mansion, and this voice did not match.

For a moment, both of them remembered what they had heard when they walked over.

Every [-]th day of the lunar new year in this mansion, there is the sound of a female ghost crying...

Could it be that this cry is from the legendary 'female ghost'?

Pei Zimo was puzzled, and mouthed "go and see" towards Qing Zhu.

Qingzhu nodded to Pei Zimo, expressing her agreement.

As soon as he turned around, Qingzhu didn't know whether it was because the night wind was too cold or what, he suddenly shuddered, and felt a little scared in his heart, so he put his hand directly into Pei Zimo's palm and asked him to hold it Own.

After Qingzhu put her palm into Pei Zimo's, Pei Zimo was a little dazed. Earlier, Qingzhu held his hand to comfort him, but now?Does it mean to rely on it?

This kind of cognition slightly diluted the sadness in Pei Zimo's heart. If it wasn't for the wrong time and wrong place, he would almost laugh out loud.

Pei Zimo wrapped Qingzhu's slightly cold hand into his own, opened his mouth towards her, and made a mouth shape of "Don't be afraid, I'm here", then led Qingzhu, walked lightly, and walked towards her. Go where the crying came from.

It was only a wall away from the courtyard where the burnt Pei family's ancestral hall was located. If Pei Zimo came from another door instead of the main entrance with green bamboo wrinkle today, he might bump into it directly.

There is a faint fire on the other side of the wall, and the smell of burning incense and money paper.

Walking to the wall, the crying had stopped, and then, a woman's trembling voice was heard: "Miss, this courtyard is really crowded, let's go back quickly."

"I don't say strange powers and chaotic spirits. This is what my grandfather often said. You have been by my side all day, have you forgotten? What's more, Uncle Pei and Aunt Pei are good people. If you really have a spirit, you won't harm me." Another woman with a much nicer voice spoke, with a strong nasal tone in her words.

Hearing this woman's voice, Pei Zimo's eyes suddenly became very complicated.

Of course, the night was dark, and even though Qingzhu was holding a lantern, he still couldn't see Pei Zimo's face clearly, so it was even more impossible to see the complex look in Pei Zimo's eyes.

Qingzhu dragged the hand in Pei Zimo's hand, and after Pei Zimo looked at her, he nodded his chin towards the outside of the wall, and silently asked Pei Zimo if he wanted to go over.

Pei Zimo already knew who was on the other side of the wall, so he didn't want to see the person on the other side of the wall, so he shook his head lightly.

Qingzhu didn't know why Pei Zimo shook his head, but he thought that if he was alone in this kind of place, if a person suddenly appeared, he might scare two out of three souls.

What's more, this is Pei Zimo's business, she doesn't want to interfere too much.It's not that he doesn't care, it's just that Qingzhu feels that if he can't even show the most basic respect, he really doesn't deserve to talk about liking.

And this respect naturally includes respecting each other's ideas.

Therefore, seeing that Pei Zimo didn't want to see the person on the other side of the wall, Qingzhu naturally let it go.

The two turned their heads together, ready to go back to the ancestral hall.

Who knows that the snow here is too thin, Qingzhu accidentally stepped on a broken brick that had just been covered with snow, and tilted her body, she was about to fall to the ground.

Although Pei Zimo was holding Qingzhu, he was afraid that if he pulled her up directly, it would hurt her arm, so he didn't care about making a sound to scare the people outside the wall, so he held Qingzhu's hand skillfully, turned his body slightly, With a stretch of his arms, he directly brought Qingzhu up and hugged him in his arms.

Being hugged by Pei Zimo like this, the lantern in Qingzhu's hand fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and went out.

The people outside the wall naturally heard the voice inside the wall, and the girl who was already a little scared screamed: "Ghost!"

Then with a bang, he fell straight down.

And because of the maid's scream, the woman who was not afraid at first panicked a little. In addition, when the maid fell down, she tripped her. She was unstable, hit the wall with her head, and passed out.

So, there was another bang.

"It seems that something has happened! Let's go and have a look." Qingzhu was in Ah Mo's arms, when she heard the sound from the other side of the courtyard wall, she suddenly raised her head, looked at Pei Zimomo with a worried face and said.

"Yeah." Pei Zimo nodded with his mouth pursed, and leapt forward with the green bamboo in his arms, lightly tapped his toes on the courtyard wall, and jumped over the courtyard wall that was nearly two people high.

Outside the courtyard wall, a pair of pewter offering sacrifices to the souls of the dead were still burning. Next to the pewter was a pile of not-so-small piles of ashes after the burning of money paper. Burn out completely.

And not far from Ashes, lay two women about the same size as green bamboos, one of them had a dark red blood stain on his forehead, and beside the other, who was obviously dressed as a maid, was a lantern that was also extinguished.

Qingzhu quickly figured out that the girl was knocked unconscious by fright, while the other woman was knocked unconscious by knocking her head on the wall.

It's easy to deal with people who are stunned. A silver needle pierces the person, but after a few twists, the maid faintly wakes up.

Before the maid said yes and opened her eyes, Qing Zhu took the silver needle and turned to look at the woman who was knocked unconscious.

"Ghost!" The girl just woke up, saw the shadow in front of her, and screamed again, just said these two words, saw the woman lying on the ground, screamed and shouted: "Ah Miss, what's the matter with you, miss?"

Then, he shouted at Qingzhu: "You, what are you going to do, let go of my young lady."

"Shut up!" Qingzhu couldn't help shouting, her eardrums ached from the screams.

The maid obviously didn't realize that Qingzhu was a real person, after being scolded by Qingzhu, she jumped again, her voice was much lower, and she said tremblingly: "Please don't hurt my lady, she is a good person, If you want, if you want to find a substitute, you can find me...I can do it too..."
