Refuse to trample on the pride of heaven

The red candle shed tears, casting a layer of warm light on Xu Yunrao's face in front of it, but combined with the scene, it seemed a little strange and dim.

"The orchid dew is like crying eyes. Nothing can bind our hearts together, and fireworks cannot be cut.

The grass is like a carpet, the pines are like a canopy. The wind is the skirt, the water is the ornament. The oil-painted carriage awaits us in the evening. The cold green candles shine brightly. Under the Xiling Mountains, the wind blows the rain... "

Xu Yunrao was standing in front of the dressing table, wearing a red gauze skirt, with her long black hair hanging down in front of her chest. A mahogany comb was gently combing her waterfall-like black hair. She had a fair face, blood-red lips, and a pair of resentful eyes. It was unclear whether she was looking at herself in the bronze mirror, or looking through the mirror at Lu Wensheng behind her.

Xu Yunrao's singing voice became more hoarse and low. Although it was pleasant to the ear, it contained a strong sense of weirdness and unresolvable resentment.

The candlelight flickers, the gauze curtains dance, and the window paper emits a faint light. Under the crescent moon, in front of the stars, the ballad as light as a cicada's wing seems to flow like the Milky Way.

The room was silent for a moment, and Lu Wensheng wanted to die - he wanted to make a sharp explosion, and he wished he could die here on the spot, rather than experience the probability of a female ghost getting close to him and attacking him.

Lu Wensheng took a deep breath and said, "Sorry to bother you." Then he turned around and ran away very calmly. Even though the system was surprised and called him frantically in his mind, he did not respond.

[Wen Sheng, what are you afraid of?! Can't you just stick the talisman paper on her?!]

"I can't, I really can't! If I get close to her, her face will be rotten and I will have nightmares! Entering the door has used up all my courage, I really can't do it now!" Someone who was really afraid of ghosts was about to cry.

The system has a new understanding of the extent of Lu Wensheng's fear of ghosts - the ghost hasn't even revealed its true face, and it's just possessed his body, but he's so scared?

Lu Wensheng ran out of the yard at the speed of a 100-meter sprint. As soon as he opened the door, he bumped into Liu Jiqian's arms with a bang.

Liu Jiqian was caught off guard and hit by a cannonball. He almost fell to the ground with everyone else. He took a few steps back to steady himself. After seeing who it was, he looked a little surprised.

"Brother Lu?"

Lu Wensheng's legs went limp and he shrank behind the crowd, completely collapsing. He sat on the ground in a utterly ungraceful manner, gasping for breath. His face turned pale with fear. When he heard someone calling him, his expression was still a little dazed, as if he had lost his soul. He looked like a completely different person from his usual self.

"Damn it, there's a ghost in there!"

The first thing he said was hilarious.

[Wen Sheng, you're so scared that you're OOC!] The system felt helpless when it saw someone swearing.

Seeing that Lu Wensheng was frightened like a cat with its fur standing on end, with his eyes wide open, Liu Jiqian didn't know whether to laugh or cry - he didn't expect that Junior Brother Lu, who usually looked so serious and fearless, was actually afraid of ghosts.

Gu Jinzhi didn't dare to laugh at Lu Wensheng, because he was actually afraid too. When he inspected the Wang family, he was with Ning Rongrong. Seeing that Lu Wensheng was scared, he swallowed his saliva.

"Did you see a ghost? What did it look like?"

Lu Wensheng also calmed down at this time. When he heard Gu Jinzhi's question, he was silent for a moment.

"did not see it."

The other three people had almost question marks on their faces - were they scared and ran away because they didn’t see you?

"Ahem, I heard someone singing in the yard so I came over to see, and then I found Mrs. Xu sitting in front of the dressing table, wearing a red dress. She was singing and looking at me resentfully through the mirror..." Then, using the routines of many horror movies, he responded.

Ning Rongrong and Liu Jiqian were silent for a moment, but Gu Jinzhi seemed to empathize with them and spoke with a look of fear on his face.

"So scary?! If it were me, I would run faster, and I might not even dare to enter the yard. Brother Lu, you are much braver than me——"

He even looked at Lu Wensheng with admiration.

[Very good, it seems there is another person like you, Wen Sheng, who seems to be even worse than you.] The system felt that this team of four suddenly became unreliable.

Liu Jiqian sighed: "Junior brother and Fellow Daoist Gu, please wait here, we will go in and take a look."

"Let's go together!" Gu Jinzhi felt that it was too gloomy outside, so it would be better for them to go together.

Lu Wensheng was about to agree, but he swallowed the words and nodded. Then he quickly stuck to Liu Jiqian, who had the highest cultivation level. He looked around with an alert look, as if he was wary of something coming out from some corner.

Gu Jinzhi also chose a good position, sandwiched between Lu Wensheng and Ning Rongrong, with almost the same expression as Lu Wensheng.

Liu Jiqian was amused by these two funny guys. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He held back and led Little Tail to knock on the door.

"Why are the immortal masters here?"

Before Liu Jiqian's hand touched the door, Xu Yunrao suddenly opened it from the inside. The wooden door made a rather harsh creaking sound, which was particularly obvious in the silent night.

Lu Wensheng's body stiffened and he subconsciously hid behind Liu Jiqian. Gu Jinzhi was much more exaggerated than him. He screamed in fear and actually hung directly on Ning Rongrong.

Ning Rongrong was stunned for a moment, then she held Gu Jinzhi, who had jumped into her arms, in a princess hug and held him steadily, without even shaking, and her expression remained normal.

Lu Wensheng was so frightened by Gu Jinzhi's sudden scream that he almost hung on Liu Jiqian. After he came to his senses, he rolled his eyes at Gu Jinzhi.

"No, what are you yelling for? You scared me."

After Gu Jinzhi came to his senses, he felt a little embarrassed. At the same time, he felt his face turn red instantly because of his current posture. He hurriedly got out of Ning Rongrong's arms, feeling so embarrassed that he wanted to crawl into the ground on the spot.

Xu Yunrao: "...Um, what's the matter with the sudden visit from the immortal masters?"

Lu Wensheng was observing her from behind and found that she came out with her clothes draped over her body. Although her hair was still loose, the color of the vaguely exposed corners of her clothes was not the red dress he had seen her wearing by the dressing table.

Liu Jiqian gave a brief explanation. After listening to it, Xu Yunrao's face turned pale. He took a few steps back, holding his forehead, as if he was about to fall.

"Is he possessed again? But I didn't feel anything this time, and when I woke up I felt my body was normal—"

"Mrs. Xu, do you mind if we go in and check?"

Xu Yunrao shook his head, took a step back and made way.

Lu Wensheng had someone accompanying him, so he felt bolder. He walked to the dressing table next to him first. The red candle was still warm and seemed to have been extinguished not long ago. He looked around, trying to find the red dress.

Liu Jiqian was feeling the yin energy, which was indeed very strong in the room. He looked at Xu Yunrao, and there was indeed ghost energy surrounding the other person. His intuition as a cultivator told him that things were not that simple.

"Where did this clothes come from?" Lu Wensheng checked inside and found the red clothes he had seen before in a more secret changing area.

"Ah, I remember putting the clothes at the bottom of the box. How come they are here?" Xu Yunrao looked surprised.
