Fatal Game Syndrome

"not comfortable?"

Seeing Ruan Lanzhu sitting on the bed with a bad look on his face, Ling Jiushi raised his hand and touched his forehead, then took it back and touched his own forehead.

"fine!"

Ruan Lanzhu fell on the bed and closed his eyes. "That room stinks. My nose is still full of that smell. I feel a little dizzy."

Ling Jiushi paused. He was standing a little outside at that time, while Ruan Lanzhu was leaning against the wall, closer to the window gap. It was obvious that he was seriously poisoned, and it was really difficult for him to run all the way out of the yard.

Reaching into his pocket, he took out a few candies. Ling Jiushi picked out a mint-flavored one, peeled it, and stuffed it into Ruan Lanzhu's mouth. Then he stuffed one into his own mouth. Immediately, his mind became clear.

"The room stinks so bad, yet Young Master Li doesn't even feel uncomfortable staying in there!"

Ling Jiushi lay down beside Ruan Lanzhu and looked at the ceiling of the tent. The small courtyard had a great impact on him.

There must be quite a few people who died there, and it is absolutely impossible that no one had noticed the abnormality of the young master of the Li family for such a long time. However, the people in the Li Mansion kept silent about it. Whether they really didn't know or pretended not to know, it was obvious that they were covering up.

"In the first room, there are 23 intact kites hanging on the wall. All of them are female. There are no new human skins in the other room."

Ruan Lanzhu turned over and faced Ling Jiushi, "So, guess what their purpose was in hiring someone to exorcise the ghosts at the Li Mansion this time?"

Ling Jiushi was stunned. There were very few maids in the Li Mansion. If he wanted to take action, there was a high probability that he would choose outsiders, and the outsiders were either people outside the Li Mansion or this group of outsiders.

And the only female among their guests on this trip was Tan Zaozao!

"The master of the Li family has a good plan!" Ling Jiushi snorted and invited a lot of people back. Those who were capable could help him exorcise ghosts in the Li Mansion. If there were women, his son would not have to harm the maids in his own mansion.

Ling Jiushi raised his hand to cover his eyes, "But Tan Zaozao is so unlucky that she always runs into this kind of drama. Should I remind them?"

"Need not!"

Ruan Lanzhu sucked the mint in his mouth hard, "Li Dongyuan is also the boss of a family organization. He can think of everything we can think of. Besides, there shouldn't be any problem as long as we don't touch the taboo conditions."

The only problem now is that they haven't found the taboo conditions yet.

"You can't enter the room where kites are made. Could this be the taboo condition this time?"

"possible!"

Ruan Lanzhu said, "But have you forgotten about the female ghost? The door god is most likely the deceased eldest lady of the Li family. The room where the kite is made may be one of the taboo conditions, but whether it is limited to this remains to be verified."

"Then we won't go out this afternoon, but go out for a walk at night?"

Ling Jiushi turned his head and blinked at him. He heard from the servant that all the people who encountered ghosts in Li Mansion happened at night, so if they wanted to see the door god, they had to wait until night to act.

"also!"

Ruan Lanzhu took his hand and squeezed it in her own. "Nothing happened last night. The door gods shouldn't take the initiative to attack. We should be careful when we go out. There shouldn't be any problem!"

At lunch time, several other visitors came back. When they passed the center of the courtyard, they glanced at Ruan Lanzhu and the others' room. However, these people looked indifferent and did not seem to have found any useful clues.

"You're not going out this afternoon? Then shall we continue playing cards?"

Cheng Qianli took out the poker cards from his backpack and put them on the table. He had an entire afternoon to play with. This was ancient times and there was nothing to play with. Fortunately, he was smart this time.

With Ruan Lanzhu's permission, after dinner Cheng Qianli quickly spread a large blanket on the floor of their bedroom and moved all the fruits, melon seeds, snacks, etc. on the table over there.

Seeing how excited he was, Ruan Lanzhu gave him some courtesy and played two rounds with him. Then he went to bed with a lack of interest and didn't get up until dinner time.

"You two stay in the room and don't go out. Don't look at the door or the window. Lock the door from the inside. Don't open the door no matter who comes. We can get in by ourselves. Got it?"

Seeing that both of them nodded obediently, Ruan Lanzhu and the other three turned around and left with peace of mind.

It was already past eleven o'clock at night. There was no sound in the Li Mansion. Not even the chirping of insects or birds could be heard. The only sound was the sound of one's footsteps on the grass. It was so quiet that it was a little surprising.

The three of them walked to the outside of the courtyard of the eldest young master of the Li family with ease. After turning around the corridor and before reaching the door, Ling Jiushi, who was walking in the middle, grabbed the arm of Ruan Lanzhu in front of him, and stopped, causing Li Dongyuan behind him to bump into him.

The two didn't know what was going on, but they just kept silent. Instead, they looked at Ling Jiu in confusion, only to see that his lips were pursed into a straight line, his eyes were wide open looking to the left, and his throat involuntarily slid up and down twice.

This expression was clearly visible to the two of them in the moonlight. What did he see? He was so scared!

Following Ling Jiushi's gaze, the two of them felt nervous. A translucent figure was floating in front of the rockery, looking at them. Why was it floating? Because the translucent figure became more and more transparent as it went down, and it was completely gone when it reached the knees!

"You, hello!"

Ling Jiushi swallowed and greeted them dryly. Ruan Lanzhu and Li Dongyuan both turned around and looked at him silently. They were quite polite!

The translucent figure also paused. She did not expect that someone would take the initiative to greet her. If it were anyone else, they would either have screamed and ran away, or their bodies would have gone limp and fainted on the spot. This was the first time she had seen someone so polite.

Seeing that the figure was actually floating towards him, Ling Jiushi's feet involuntarily moved back, but then he stopped and just leaned towards Ruan Lanzhu.

"you are?"

Ruan Lanzhu looked up and down at the figure that floated towards him. Apart from being shocked by this figure that suddenly appeared, neither he nor Li Dongyuan felt any wave of emotion. Ruan Lanzhu was fearless to begin with. As for Li Dongyuan, Ruan Lanzhu felt that he was just being foolish and bold.

"My slave, Li Muwan!"

The woman's voice was soft and ethereal, very pleasant to the ear.

"Li? The eldest young lady of the Li family?"

Li Dongyuan tilted his head to look at her. She was a very beautiful girl. Her dress and appearance did not look like that of a young lady from a wealthy family. Instead, she looked like an unmarried girl from the countryside. She looked very simple, yet clean and fresh.

"It's my slave family!"

Li nodded slightly.

"Why are you here?"

Ling Jiushi was not afraid anymore. She was a fair and clean girl, and apart from looking a little transparent, there was nothing wrong with her.

"I am waiting here for you guys!"

As she spoke, Li glanced at Ruan Lanzhu inconspicuously. She knew this big shot as soon as he came in. She was waiting for him here last night, but he didn't go out at all. Fortunately, he came out today!

"Wait for us?"

Ling Jiushi was surprised. Why were they waiting for them? Waiting for him to help her get revenge? "Help you kill the eldest young master of the Li family?"

Unexpectedly, Li actually shook her head and said, "I will wipe out the entire Li family!"

Ah? ? ?

Ling Jiushi and Li Dongyuan were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground. How deep was this hatred? They actually wanted to kill his entire family?

"Talk about it!"

Ruan Lanzhu was as calm as ever, and even sat down in the corridor with his arms folded.

"My maiden name is Yuan, and my family lives in a village outside the county..."

It turned out that Li's name was Yuan Muwan. Although she was a farmer, her family was well off. She had three older brothers, so her family doted on her as the youngest girl.

A few months ago, after the family harvested the crops, her mother wanted to take her to the city for a stroll and buy some cloth to make her new clothes. Unexpectedly, after happily arriving in the city, she ran into the eldest son of the Li family who had not been out for several months.

Although the later plot is familiar, it did happen to Yuan Muwan. The eldest master of the Li family tried every means to force Yuan Muwan to marry into the Li family.

In the beginning, the young master was indeed gentle and considerate, and Yuan Muwan thought it was fine this way. Unexpectedly, the young master of the Li family changed his temperament overnight, and tortured Yuan Muwan terribly, not hiding it even in front of others. Both the masters and servants of the Li family turned a blind eye to this, until she was tied to the wooden board, her skin was peeled off, and she died of pain!

At this point, Yuan Muwan's eyes were filled with hatred, and her body became bloody. Her skinless body was covered with red veins, and the blood flowed down like a stream and disappeared on the stone slab.

The thick black air surrounding him drowned out the moonlight that was originally shining in the yard, making it pitch dark.

The three of them frowned as they listened. They had thought that the wife of the eldest son of the Li family must be a well-matched lady from a wealthy family, but they didn't expect that she was actually a peasant girl who was forcibly married!

He risked his life to marry her, but she died so miserably.

The master of the Li family also knew what kind of person his son was. He even dared to find someone to exorcise ghosts. Did so many girls who died with their eyes open die in vain?

"Why don't you do it yourself? Judging from your condition, you must be a ghost, right? Not to mention killing the entire Li family, you should be able to massacre the entire county."

Ruan Lanzhu's voice made Yuan Muwan slowly calm down, and the moonlight fell on their heads again.

"I have limitations. I can only use my full strength in my room. Other than that, I can't kill anyone!"

Ruan Lanzhu glanced at Ling Jiushi. It was that bastard Gao Dawei who made the restriction again. Even killing for revenge was not allowed...

"At first, the people in Li's house were afraid that I would take revenge, but when they saw that I hadn't taken action yet, they guessed something."

"Later, they came to you guys under the guise of exorcising ghosts. First, they really wanted to get rid of us. Second, there was no maid left in the mansion, and his son could no longer hold it in!"

us?

Ling Jiushi asked, "Besides you, are all the other women he killed still in the mansion?"

"Here I am!"

Yuan Muwan nodded slightly, "They are timid, and their resentment is not as strong as mine, so they have been hiding in the bamboo bushes and dare not come out. Later, after I died, they took them to wander around the mansion to scare people!"

As she spoke, Yuan Muwan puffed out her chest with pride. She was not the kind of ghost who would not dare to resist even if she was killed. If she couldn't defeat them when she was alive, would she have to be a frustrated ghost after she died?

Thank you for the gifts, love you~
