Sick beauty loses horse in thriller game

Ailian walked towards home. Just as she reached the door, she heard bursts of weak coughing coming from the house.

Ailian was startled and immediately opened the gate and ran in, shouting as she ran, "Grandma..."

When the panicked Ailian ran into the house, she found that the old woman who was lying on the bed had fallen into a coma.

Half of her body was hanging on the side of the bed. If Ailian had not run into the house in time, grabbed her and carried her back to the bed, this pale and thin woman, who was obviously on the verge of death, would have fallen off the bed.

Ailian ran over and helped the woman lie back on the bed. Only then did she discover that there were a lot of spurted bloodstains on the quilt covering the woman and on the floor beside the bed. There was also bloodstains at the corners of the woman's mouth that had not yet dried.

"Mother-in-law!" Ailian called out again, her voice full of grief.

Taking one look at the haggard old woman lying on the sickbed, Ailian suddenly felt a great sense of panic in her heart.

If she lost the protection of her mother-in-law, she would not be able to survive alone in a place like Pingguling Village.

She...will die!

She doesn't want to die!

She suddenly thought of something, and a glimmer of hope began to flash in her unfocused eyes.

She wants to live! But...prospering them may not let her get what she wants.

Thinking of Xingwang and the others, the fire of hope that had originally risen in Ailian's eyes once again died down.

Just when she was feeling desperate, a figure suddenly flashed through her mind.

If it was that person, maybe...

While the others were still in the trial and had not come out, Jiang Lai had already searched the entire ancestral hall.

Apart from the weirdly drawn stone tablet behind the altar, she didn't find any valuable clues.

Jiang Lai did not recognize the twisted, maggot-like words carved on the stone tablet.

When asking Xiao Ai, the system warned her that Xiao Ai did not have the authority to reveal key information to players.

Jiang Lai:......

The broken system itself is not capable, and it won’t allow capable people to get in.

Typical of a person who is both incompetent and nosy.

system:……

Jiang Lai had no choice but to take out a camera from the prop bar and prepare to take pictures of the words on the stone tablet. Then he would look for something like a dictionary in the village. When he returned, he would translate the contents of the inscriptions while looking at the dictionary.

She took out her camera, turned on the flash, and was about to take a picture of the inscriptions, but was surprised to see that blood was flowing from the strange words on the stone tablet that were twisted like maggots!

Tsk, the uncle of the stone tablet has come?

When she moved the camera away and looked at the stone tablet, she found that the top of the stone tablet was still clean and there was nothing on it.

She raised her eyebrows, then suddenly curled the corners of her lips, revealing a mischievous smile. She began to pick up and put down her camera, watching the stone tablet oozing blood and then becoming clean again...

She was having a great time when Yan Yurong and seven other young ladies returned to the ancestral hall to report the situation to Jiang Lai.

They did not find Niu Lingling's whereabouts in the village. There seemed to be no other people in the village except the children.

There was only one family, and there was an unconscious old woman lying on the hospital bed.

That is Ailian's home.

The old woman lying on the bed should be the Grandma Xiufen mentioned by the old man who led them in the village and sent them to the village chief's house.

After hearing the results of the seven young ladies' investigation, Lu Zhou and the others also showed signs of waking up.

Jiang Lai walked over, took out his camera, and started taking pictures of the stone tablet.

Perhaps because more people woke up, the phenomenon of bleeding on the stone tablet when being photographed by a camera mysteriously disappeared.

Even the instant photos that Jiang Lai took with his camera did not show anything unusual.

After the others passed the test, she put away her camera and prepared to leave with the others.

At this moment, the sky outside became darker.

Raindrops as big as beans fell down with crackling sound.

Everyone took out rain gear from the prop bar and went home in the rain.

At this time, Lu Zhou suddenly said in surprise: "Hey, where is Niu Lingling? Why... is she gone?"

Jiang Lai twitched his lips, "Maybe it's because you said before that you would torture her severely, and she heard it and scared her away."

Lu Zhou:......

Everyone ran in the rain towards the yard where they were temporarily living.

Dark clouds loomed, thunder rumbled, and lightning streaked through the dull night sky, illuminating the outline of the small village.

The rain was pouring down, and the bluestone slabs on the street were washed by the rain, emitting a faint light.

Those old stone houses were blurred in the pouring rain and looked even older, as if telling stories of an unknown past.

Under the eaves, raindrops dripped onto the bluestone slabs, splashing water.

Blisters soon appeared where water accumulated.

In the entire village, there was only the sound of wind and rain and the occasional cry of wild birds, which made people feel an eerie silence.

Occasionally, a flickering light shone through a window of a house facing the street, casting a vague shadow on the window, as if something was spying on Jiang Lai and his friends who were running in the heavy rain.

The rain was getting heavier, and the atmosphere in the small village was getting more terrifying, as if something was hiding in the wet rain, spying, following, and waiting for an opportunity to strike...

Walking on such a street, everyone couldn't help but quicken their pace, hoping to escape from this ancient land soaked by rain as soon as possible.

Along the way, heavy rain blurred their vision and hearing.

All they could see was the heavy rain curtains falling layer by layer, and hear the sound of the rain splashing...

Pingguling Village is not very large.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Jiang Lai and his friends ran back to the narrow street where the courtyard where they temporarily lived was located.

The street was only about one meter wide and had a long and narrow shape.

Everyone filed in.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, making a loud noise in their ears, and they ran faster and faster.

Jiang Lai, who was following behind Lu Zhou, frowned.

Obviously, the alley is only two or three hundred meters long, but at this moment it gives people a weird feeling... as if it will never end!

What's even weirder is...

The yard where they lived before was obviously different from other yards in the surrounding area. It had a wall that was twice or even three times higher than other yards.

But at this moment...
