Fragrant willow catkins

Mo Xi looked at Ning Xu's calm face and thought to himself that he must not be outdone by her. He had to save face even if he died! "If you are not afraid, what should I be afraid of? Stop!"

Flocculation: ...

With so many stubborn people around, the group finally settled down in this inn. In order to prevent Ningxu and the other girls from getting scared when they saw the dyed cloth in the yard when they got up at night, the third master specifically ordered the guards to patrol and stand in the yard with lanterns to light up the yard.

The inn's toilet was on the other side of the courtyard, divided into the front yard and the back yard. Whenever I wanted to go to bed at night, I had to go through the front yard and the layers of dyed cloth in the yard...

Who dares to do this?

But the more scared people are, the more they want to go to the toilet. Look, Ningxu is tossing and turning in bed. The candles in the room are lit, but she has no desire to sleep at all.

Ningxu hasn't gone to the toilet since dark. It has been five or six hours. She really can't bear it anymore.

Ningxu pushed the door open carefully, and it creaked open. There was no one in the basement hall, only candles burning silently. She walked along the wall, looking back and forth, and finally reached the steps.

As soon as I took a step, a creaking sound suddenly appeared in the silent environment.

Ning Xu's heart skipped a beat. She turned around and saw that Mo Xi's door was open.

Mo Xi poked his head out of the room and whispered, "Where are you going?"

Ningxu didn't dare to speak loudly, "Toilet."

"I want to go too~" Mo Xi also walked out of the room and quietly walked to Ningxu's side, sticking a little close to Ningxu. The two of them walked down the stairs like thieves, and they watched on one side tacitly, for fear that they would really encounter any ghost.

The two finally got down to the first floor, and somehow their arms were linked together. Now they had to go through the back door of the lobby, across the yard, and walk to the toilet on the other side.

This is a huge challenge for them.

The two of them walked out of the door together, to the corridor in the courtyard, looking around. The guards naturally noticed them, and one of them was about to come over with a lantern to light it for them.

But they saw that the guard, who was about to step towards them, suddenly stopped moving and stared at them. A look of fear appeared on his face, and his hands couldn't help shaking, shaking along with the light of the lantern.

Ningxu and Moxi stood there trembling. They had seen the guards' reactions. Ningxu stammered, "Is he, he, he, looking behind us..."

Mo Xi: "Yeah. I don't know what these are... Can you look back?"

Ningxu: "I don't, look."

Mo Xi: “You…look!”

The two little girls huddled closer and closer, and their voices became smaller and smaller. They even felt something approaching them from behind. They were so scared that they dared not move. They put their heads together and closed their eyes.

Don't look, don't be afraid...

Don't look, don't be afraid...

Not afraid...

"What are you doing?"

As the shadow behind them got closer, their bodies were completely covered by the shadow of the person behind them, and a steady voice sounded in their ears.

“Ah!” “Ahhhhhhhh!”

The two were so frightened by the sound that their souls left their bodies. They wanted to scream but didn't dare to, and they reached out to cover each other's mouths in panic.

The guard heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the person behind them. He calmed himself down and continued to walk towards them, bowing to the person, "Your Majesty."

?

Ningxu and Moxi raised their heads uncertainly when they heard the name, and turned to look at the people behind them.

Ningxu: “Hu…”

Mo Xi: "Brother..."

Ningxu: "You know how scary it is? Why don't you make any noise when you walk?"

Ningxu and Moxi let go of each other. Now there were two grown men present, so who would be afraid of ghosts?

Mo Xi also turned to look at the guard, "Why are you afraid of even my brother?"

The guard scratched his head as if he had just survived a disaster. "There is no light in there. There is only a black shadow..."

Third Master: "What are you doing here? Aren't you sleeping?"

"We are going to the toilet. Can you come with me?" Ning Xu saw San Ye as if she had seen a savior. She ran to San Ye's left side and took his arm.

Mo Xi was afraid that they would abandon her. After all, these two were so obsessed with love that they would indeed do such a thing. Mo Xi quickly ran to Ning Xu's left side and held Ning Xu's left arm tightly.

Since the emperor brother has already secretly decided to spend his life with Rumeng, she will not interfere. It is more reliable to hold Rumeng's arm.

Just like that, the guards lit the lights for the three of them, and Ningxu hugged two people on her left and right, feeling really safe being sandwiched in the middle.

The four of them walked towards the yard together, and the Third Master then observed that all the guards he sent to keep watch were concentrated on the side without dyed cloth, causing the dyed cloth side to be completely dark.

The front yard was surrounded by guest rooms with stairs in the yard. The guest rooms were connected to the corridor of the front hall, which also had three floors. The building was so tall that even the moonlight could not penetrate. The four of them walked slowly in the yard. Ningxu wanted to beat Mo Xun up. It was all his fault. He told some ghost stories that made even the guards in the group scared.

The door leading to the backyard was on the side of the front yard, which was on the right hand side of Ningxu and his companions, and the dyed cloth was drying right in front of the gate.

When the four of them were facing the backyard through the door, it was like facing layers of dyed cloth...

Ningxu and Moxi stopped in tacit understanding and looked directly at the white cloth fluttering in the darkness with their own eyes. The shock was quite great...

Mo Xi: "Let's go, let's go, let's go?"

Mo Xi spoke haltingly, holding Ningxu's hand tighter and tighter. Ningxu secretly complained in her heart that this innkeeper really didn't know how to do business. Who would have so many dyed cloths hanging in front of their yard?

Boss: I didn’t expect that some people would be afraid of dyeing cloth…

As the cold wind blew, the four of them could clearly see that behind the white dyed cloth, the outline of a human figure gradually emerged...

Guard: "What is that?!"

The guard who was holding the lamp for the three men couldn't help but scream in fear. Everyone in the courtyard was startled and looked up at Ranbu one after another. They all stopped where they were and didn't dare to make any big movements.

People could clearly see a figure standing there in a daze on the dyed cloth.

Mo Xi said with a trembling voice, "What is that? Who, who is playing tricks?"

Ningxu: "Could it be Mo Xun?"

With his wicked character, he would indeed act like a ghost in the middle of the night when people are not paying attention.

Hearing Ningxu's guess, the Third Master gave a look to the guard beside him. The guard understood, looked up and exchanged glances with his colleagues on the third floor, occasionally turning his head towards the ghost.

Because there were corridors on the upper floors, the guards on the third floor held lanterns and went in pairs on both sides towards the direction of dyeing the cloth.

Several guards came to the top of the dyed cloth, but the expected horrific scene did not appear, and there was nothing behind the dyed cloth.

They looked at the Third Master and shook their heads, "No one!"
