seek immortality

Chapter 377 Phantom Appears
The road has an end, and the ancestral house of the Li family has arrived.

"It's here." Seeing it from a distance, Li Shengming pointed there.

Tang Chengnian looked in the direction his finger was pointing at, and saw a very magnificent house, and the walls of the house were painted with bright red paint in a coquettish manner.The entire house occupies a rather large area, and traces of exquisite carvings can be seen on the eaves and lanai buildings. Thinking about it, this Li family can be regarded as a big family in Fengdu City.It's a pity that no matter how big the family is, all the members of the family will still move out of here.

It can be seen that this house has not smelled of human smoke for a long time, and it has a somewhat desolate artistic conception, very desolate.

Li Shengming also sighed deeply as he looked at the almost deserted ancestral house.

"Please." He said sincerely.

A dead horse has the right to be a living horse doctor. He really has no choice. He can't just watch the family's ancestral house being destroyed in his own hands.

Therefore, even if the person opposite him was just an eight-year-old girl from top to bottom, he had to pin his hope of solving the problem on this child.After all, so many things have happened, so many people have been invited, but nothing has been achieved. Even because of those people he invited, the things in his own backyard have been spread... Now, no one dares to come again.

Even if it is a liar, the liar will die.

Li Shengming, there is really no way out.

"Master Li, don't worry." Tang Chengnian had nothing else to say, so he could only comfort him like this.

Although she is not completely sure, she can still protect herself.

Besides, even if she really encountered some trouble in the Li family's backyard, she is not alone... There is always someone who can figure out what's going on for her.

……

After Li Shengming sent Tang Chengnian to the Li residence, he planned to leave.

After all, Tang Chengnian wanted to stay here until the day it rained.

Fortunately, Fengdu City is in the rainy season, and it has been raining continuously recently, so I don't worry about waiting too long.

According to Li Shengming, during this period, the backyard of the Li Mansion was temporarily occupied by her. However, there are still gatekeepers guarding several gates of the Li Mansion. If Tang Chengnian wants to eat something, these gatekeepers can be let Send it off, but she can't leave easily, if she wants to leave, she must get Li Shengming's consent.

Naturally, Tang Chengnian would not refuse. She was not originally interested in things in Li's house.

"No problem, if I need anything, I will tell them." Tang Chengnian asked again, "During this period of time, have you been staying in the mansion there?"

She was referring to the room Xu Yanling had seen when she passed by.

"Yes." Li Shengming was still a little uneasy, but since Tang Chengnian boasted, he had no choice but to believe it.

"Please." After Li Shengming finished speaking, he turned and left.

The moment he turned around, Tang Chengnian suddenly remembered a long-lost system notification sound.

[Mission "Phantom on a Rainy Night": In the backyard of Li's family in the south of Fengdu City, every rainy night, a phantom will appear. You want to investigate the truth of the matter. 】

【Are you accepting the mission? 】

【whether】

task?

Tang Chengnian naturally confirmed without hesitation.

It's just that she didn't expect that this could be regarded as a task.However, after thinking about it, she was right, although this was something she found out by herself, it was indeed a commission.At that time, she took part in the exam at the outer gate of Mingyue Cliff, didn't she also complete a challenge?From the looks of it, the portable game system is still working fine.

Since Tang Chengnian had already entrusted him, the concierge only stayed in his own territory and did not come out.

Tang Chengnian released Jin Langyan and Xiao Hei with confidence.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

As soon as Xiao Hei was born, he was in the main interface of the portable game system, and he had never come out.

Now, seeing the scenery outside, Xiao Hei was very excited and kept running around.

"Hush!" Tang Chengnian held up Xiao Hei with one finger, and although Xiao Hei still couldn't express himself, she finally understood what she said, so she admonished, "Xiao Hei, you can talk to me later. You can't scream too loudly, I let you out without telling others, if you scream too loudly and attract people, I will leave you alone."

For a beast like Xiao Hei, it is best to use simple and rude intimidation methods.

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking and put Xiao Hei back, Xiao Hei stopped shouting loudly.

She also had no choice, if the barking of the dog attracted the concierge, how would she explain her behavior of "turning into a living dog"?

Just hide it for now.

The reason why Xiao Hei was released was because he looked too much like a dog.What if it had the same senses as a dog?After all, what Tang Chengnian was facing now was a completely unfamiliar "creature". In the ignorant situation, it was natural to prepare all the trump cards first. Whether to use it or not was another matter.

Tang Chengnian was lucky.

Before long, the sky became overcast.

Come to think of it, tonight is a rainy night.

The backyard of the Li Mansion was very large, and Tang Chengnian was guarding the gate of the westernmost courtyard of the mansion.After nightfall, she will walk from here to the gate of the courtyard on the east side of the mansion, and walk all the way to see if she can bump into the phantom.After all, the phantom was elusive, if she stayed in the same place, maybe she might not be able to see it.

"I'm really asking for trouble. I've only seen people hiding from ghosts, but I haven't seen people who heard about ghosts and bumped into them..."

Tang Chengnian sighed.

When I used to watch movies and novels, I always couldn't understand the various "death" behaviors of the protagonists in ghost movies and horror stories.Now, she knows that she is trying to die, but she has to do it... Fortunately, there is a floating "wild fire" and a clever "puppy" beside her, so she is not alone.Coupled with the noisy wooden man, the atmosphere of terror is seventy percent, and it's all scattered.

"Hahaha... You are so scared, can you still leave later?" Shang Liujia on the other side kept nagging, not only did not comfort her, but also kept mocking her.

Tang Chengnian became anxious, and said, "I'm not afraid. If I was afraid, I wouldn't agree to the master of the Li family."

"Don't be afraid, what are you shaking?"

"I'm not shaking!"

"That whimpering sound, aren't you holding back your tears?" Shang Liujia asked in surprise.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo what is that sound?" Tang Chengnian was sitting on a stone bench by the yard, but now he jumped up resolutely.

She swallowed nervously and couldn't help but look around.

"Where is there any cry?"

Tang Chengnian listened carefully for a while before realizing that he had been tricked by Shang Liujia.

"Shang Liujia!"

But don't mention it, with Shang Liujia's gag, the last trace of nervousness she had was gone.

"Why do I hear a dog barking at your place?" Shang Liujia asked suspiciously.

Just now when Tang Chengnian jumped up in shock, he frightened Xiao Hei on the side, and Xiao Hei couldn't hold back, barking several times.

Tang Chengnian muttered guiltily: "It's not like a wilderness... Is it surprising that there are dogs barking?"

"Oh." Shang Liujia heard that Tang Chengnian didn't really want to talk about this issue, so he said helplessly, "Then you should be careful, if you feel something is wrong, it's better to withdraw as soon as possible."

Sarcasm is sarcasm, he still doesn't want Tang Chengnian to have an accident.

"I know, don't worry." Tang Chengnian persuaded him in turn.

Shang Liujia smiled wryly: "Why did you come to comfort me?"

After talking with Shang Liujia for a while, Tang Chengnian felt that his courage became more abundant.

[Mission "Phantom on a Rainy Night": In the backyard of Li's family in the south of Fengdu City, every rainy night, a phantom will appear. You want to investigate the truth of the matter. 】

Tang Chengnian called up the task description and looked at it. These simple words always give some clues.

Every rainy night, midnight... rainy night, midnight, the meaning of this sentence should be to affirm that the phantom only appeared during the rainy night.

Well, now is not the time.

Tang Chengnian waited patiently, waiting for the time to come.

late at night.

Tang Chengnian was not sleepy, and when the time came, she set off.

Walking in the backyard of the Li Mansion, Tang Chengnian fully unfolded his spiritual consciousness.

Although there is no light in the backyard, only the occasional lightning will bring brightness, but Tang Chengnian only uses his spiritual sense to check, and he doesn't care if there is any light. Walking among the long corridors in the backyard, he doesn't feel stagnant.It's just that there are too many corridors in the backyard of the Li Mansion... Tang Chengnian muttered as he walked.

"Wang! Wang Wang Wang!"

Xiao Hei suddenly yelled frantically.

"Xiao Hei? What's the matter?" Tang Chengnian was taken aback, and asked subconsciously, but soon she came back to her senses, and immediately looked in the direction Xiao Hei was looking at——

There is a colorful phantom floating in midair like a flying scarf.

Chase!
Tang Chengnian immediately rushed towards the phantom.

However, the phantom did not escape, but came towards Tang Chengnian.

Tang Chengnian was vigilant, and when he was about to collide with the phantom, he stopped ahead of time.

Whispering words!

Tang Chengnian launched an attack, and an invisible spiritual power hit the phantom.That's the entity!
Come to think of it, the phantom never thought that not only would Tang Chengnian not run away, but he would immediately think of attacking it, so he didn't react.The dreaming words hit the phantom, and it fell from the midair without a sound.

The phantom fell to the ground, actually like a folded square scarf.

It really looks like a piece of cloth.

Tang Chengnian took a step forward.

Just when she was about to bend down to pick up the square scarf, she suddenly found that her steps became a little staggering.

My mind suddenly became confused.

what's the situation?
"Wow, woof, woof, woof!" Xiao Hei was terribly anxious.

But Tang Chengnian found that she seemed to have no way to control herself, she just felt that everything in front of her eyes had become extremely hazy, and she was about to - faint - faint -

"thump"

Tang Chengnian fell to the ground.
