I tell fortunes for NPCs in a horror game

"Hey, why is it so cold?"

"I mean, it might rain."

There were voices outside the study, and at the same time, all the light outside the study disappeared.

"What's going on?" Lu Yuan, who was handling official business, raised his head and asked.

However, there was silence outside.

In shock and suspicion, Lu Yuan opened the door, but the boys on duty and the patrolling guards outside the house were all gone, and all the lighted lanterns were extinguished.

The evening wind howled, and the cool air hit my face, making my scalp numb.

"Come here!" Lu Yuan shouted again, but still no one answered.

Lu Yuan's hand immediately locked the door. Although there were rumors in the house that strange things would happen, he had never encountered them, so he only treated them as rumors. This was the first time he faced the supernatural events at night.

Lu Yuan slapped himself on the face, thinking, if this was a dream, it would be better to wake up quickly.

But the pain on his face was felt, but the scene in front of him remained unchanged.

There was no time to wonder what was going on, as a light seemed to be approaching at the entrance of the small courtyard.

"Who is where?" Lu Yuan held the door with one hand and his tone was a bit colder.

The visitor did not speak, but Lin Xiangwan, who was standing behind Lu Yuan, had prepared the talisman in his hand, ready to defend and attack at any time.

When they got closer, they could see clearly that it was a long-haired woman in white. Her face was unclear, but she looked very young.

"Who are you? You don't even know what this is..."

Before Lu Yuan finished speaking, the woman suddenly raised her head. She had a Jiangnan softness about her, her eyes were filled with tears and sorrow, and her temperament was weak and endearing. Her long hair is as smooth as silk and hangs naturally on her shoulders.

Before Lin Xiangwan could admire the other party's unique charm, he was almost bumped into by Lu Yuan who took half a step back.

He gripped the doorframe harder: "Who asked you to come here?"

The woman's eyes were full of resentment, with the determination to see through the chaos of the world: "Master Lu, what do you mean by this?"

"I don't care who found you, stop pretending to be a ghost here!"

Lu Yuan emphasized several times that the woman in front of him was ordered to come here, but Lin Xiangwan knew that was not the case. After all, the woman in front of him was a ghost.

When she carefully distinguished the woman's appearance, she discovered that this person was the same person as the horoscope provided by the eldest princess, that is, the legendary Nian'er.

The female ghost's lips were filled with melancholy, like the mist in the distant mountains: "How can Mr. Lu be so forgetful? That's right, you are a high-ranking prince-in-law, how can you be so fond of a little girl?"

After saying that, the female ghost rolled the hair that was blown by the wind behind her ears, and her eyes gradually fell from Lu Yuan's face to his body, and then to his toes.

Lu Yuan felt like his whole body was being seen through, but what made him even more intolerable was that familiar face.

Just when Lu Yuan wanted to continue to drive him away, the female ghost's face suddenly lifted up. The young and pitiful look she had just now was gone, replaced by an aging look full of vicissitudes and wrinkles. On her cheeks, there were red blood marks. It was clearly visible, just like the horrific state the man was in before his death.

After all, Lu Yuan couldn't hold it back. While screaming, he subconsciously wanted to close the door, but found that his body was too stiff to move.

"Why is the dignified eldest son of the General's Mansion so imprudent?" The female ghost muttered as she slowly approached with a lantern. She suddenly raised the lantern to Lu Yuan's cheek and admired the other man's shock. With a fearful and slightly ferocious expression, he laughed playfully, "Look, is this still the young man who is on the top of the minds of thousands of women?"

As the female ghost spoke, she gently stroked Lu Yuan's cheek with her other hand. It was at this time that Lin Xiangwan noticed that all her fingernails had fallen off.

Was he tortured? Lin Xiangwan frowned, unconsciously feeling unbearable pain for this female ghost.

The corners of the female ghost's mouth were bleeding, and blood was dripping from her fingertips. The red color contrasted sharply with her plain white clothes, which was really dazzling.

"Ning... Ning Xi? You are Ning Xi!" Lu Yuan swallowed. Under the influence of the lantern, he saw that there was no shadow of the person coming. It was this detail that made him truly believe the rumors about the house being haunted.

"Ning Xi?" The female ghost tilted her head, as if to reflect who this name was.

But as time passed, a few seconds later, her beautiful eyes began to become bloodshot, and sharp nails suddenly grew on her bare fingertips, directly scratching Lu Yuan's cheek.

Lin Xiangwan waited patiently at first because he realized early on that Lu Yuan was not a good person, and wanted to use the female ghost to scare him into telling him the true news.

But seeing that the female ghost was about to kill her, she couldn't continue to sit idly by and quickly threw out a spirit-sealing talisman.

What Lin Xiangwan didn't expect was that the female ghost ducked very quickly and hid a few meters away. She did a ground escape on the spot without any hesitation and disappeared without a trace.

The moment the female ghost disappeared, the lanterns outside the study lit up one by one. Lu Yuan's hands and feet were still trembling when he heard the boy beside him exclaim: "Consort, your face..."

Lu Yuan reached out and wiped it on his right cheek, and immediately felt a burning pain. Just now, he was so frightened that he even lost the pain on his face.

Lu Yuan angrily yelled: "Why don't you go find the doctor yet!"

The boy panicked and responded: "But...but at this time...I'm afraid the medical clinics are all closed."

Lu Yuan slapped the young man on the face, his eyes full of anger: "Useless thing!"

The boy seemed to want to resist for a moment, but in the end he made no move and just tried to comfort Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan always maintained a gentleman's demeanor on weekdays. He was capable of both literary and military skills and was humble and polite to others. This was the first time that the servants saw him get so angry. After venting his emotions, he immediately realized his gaffe, held his forehead and ordered: "Invite the doctor into the house early tomorrow morning."

After saying that, he subconsciously pressed his hand on the door frame to close the door. But, perhaps because of the thrilling scene just now, he still didn't have the courage to close the door. Even the sound of people coming and going outside made him feel at ease.

Lin Xiangwan did not remove the invisibility charm, so people in the study could not see her. Seeing that the ghostly energy dissipated in the house, she simply went back to sleep.

But the doubts in her heart deepened. Nian'er, oh no, it should be Ning Xi. What kind of conflict does this woman have with the eldest princess and the consort? Listening to the conversation between Ning Xi and Lu Yuan, it can be said that it is completely nutritious. Moreover, Ning Xi's ghost power is extraordinary, and the whole thing is far more complicated than she imagined.
