After being scared to cry by me, she confessed to me

Xu Lan put her hand on her chin, lowered her eyes slightly, and her long eyelashes covered the panic that was almost exposed.

She thought for a while, and finally smiled and raised her head to look at the boy, and nodded calmly.

"Okay, let's talk then."

The boy's name is Jiang Shao, and he claims to be a celestial master. Although he is young, he is said to have rich experience in eliminating ghosts.

Xu Lan listened to his bragging very seriously, and nodded in praise from time to time, with a somewhat respectful look on his face, he almost gave Jiang Shao a direct applause or two thumbs up.

Because Xu Lan's reaction was so flattering that a bit of falsehood was inexplicably revealed in the sincerity.

Jiang Shao stopped chattering, and looked at Xu Lan silently, "Miss Xu, I'm talking to you about this very seriously."

Xu Lan also nodded, with a dignified expression, "Mr. Jiang, I also listened very sincerely."

Jiang Shao sized her up for two seconds, but couldn't find anything suspicious, so he continued: "I have always lived in the next door, City A. Under the leadership and management of my master and I, our city A has always been well-organized and very organized. There are very few incidents of evil spirits hurting people. My goal is to eliminate all evil spirits and give all of us human beings safety! Happiness! A beautiful life!"

Xu Lan: "..."

It is simply crazy to preach to a ghost how to take down demons and eliminate demons as one's own responsibility.

She has never seen a person who can talk so much nonsense, and can't get to the point after rambling for a long time.If it wasn't for the consideration that his status as a celestial master might be detrimental to her, Xu Lan would have kicked him out a long time ago.

And Jiang Shao boasted for a long time, and finally, when Xu Lan's patience reached the limit, he started to talk about the main points.

"But in our place, there is an evil spirit. She often turns into a charming and beautiful woman to seduce some lecherous men and women. When people take the bait, they will endanger their lives. Now, according to my position finder observation, She should have come to this city."

When hearing this, Xu Lan's hand unconsciously tightened his grip on the pen he was playing with.

Listening to Jiang Shao's description, it is obvious that he is talking about Cen Ruo.

But Jiang Shao didn't know that there was more than one ghost in this city.

Jiang Shao continued: "Where the black mist passed is where the female ghost went. My ability is still lacking, and I haven't been able to directly detect where she is now, but she has been to you."

Xu Lan nodded, followed Jiang Shao's words and asked nervously: "What is she going to do?"

Jiang Shao replied seriously, "She is a female ghost, of course she wants to kill people! Evil ghosts often like to hide in hospitals and other places where there are many human souls, so as to interfere with our judgment. The secret room you opened To a certain extent, it is true, because there are too many human fears gathered here, so it can cover up the ghost's breath to a certain extent."

Xu Lan let go of the pen she was holding, and lowered her head to take a sip of the coffee in front of her.

What Jiang Shao said happened to be the reason why she chose to open the secret room to escape.

True or false, it is easier to confuse the line of sight and hide your own existence.

But now it is clear that Jiang Shao's goal is Cen Ruo.

Cen Ruo agreed to stay away from Yan Shu, but Xu Lan couldn't rest assured after all.

After all, what ghosts say are all lies, and they have never been credible.

If she can make good use of this opportunity, she can use Jiang Shao's hand to get rid of Cen Ruo.

Of course, in this process, she may also expose her identity, and become one of Jiang Shao's targets to get rid of.

But it seems that it would be easier to fool him away than to help Jiang Shao deal with Cen Ruo together.

This is a gamble, and it is still difficult for Xu Lan to make a decision.

Based on the relationship between her and Yan Shu, it was natural to protect Yan Shu, but it seemed that it was not enough to bet her own life.

But Xu Lan couldn't ignore the wooden sign that appeared countless times in her dreams.

People have a strong thirst for knowledge, and so do ghosts. It seems that only Jiang Shao can help her find the answer to the cause of her previous death and her lost memory.

Xu Lan thought, she couldn't have been wandering for so long and didn't know how she died until her soul dissipated. That would be too unfair.

In fact, she has been dead for a long time, and she doesn't want to stay in this world that much.

If this bet fails, it's just bad luck for her.

Hmm... She didn't want to protect Yan Shu, but just by the way.

She looked up at the young man in front of her, her eyes were clear and clean.

Such a person should have nothing to do with her death.

So Xu Lan asked directly: "Is there anything I can do to help?"

"Of course." Jiang Shao nodded, moved his head forward again, and started talking about his plan with Xu Lan.

He wants to put a charm on the front door of the haunted house, so that if the female ghost comes, he can catch her.

Xu Lan said: "Oh, just wait for the rabbit."

Approved on the surface, but actually with a touch of sarcasm.

Just five words, but Jiang Shao suddenly fell silent.

Yes, when will I wait here.

If the female ghost didn't come back here and hurt someone outside, it would be too late.

Xu Lan looked at the pensive boy in front of her with a complicated mood. She always felt that her previous fear seemed to have overestimated him.

Because he doesn't look very reliable, he seems to have no ability and nothing to be afraid of.

Xu Lan asked him, "Hasn't she been to other places besides my place?"

Jiang Shao thought for a while, and replied: "She has also been to No. [-] Middle School."

The polite smile on Xu Lan's face faded.

No. [-] Middle School, Yan Shu's school.

Suddenly, the bell on Jiang Shao's right wrist shook violently, making a piercing sound.

Jiang Shao put the bell on his left hand, and murmured a series of words that Xu Lan couldn't understand, but it should be some kind of spell.

In the next second, Jiang Shao stood up, confident, "She appeared again. It should be because I have arrived in the imperial capital, and the detection range has been narrowed so that it is more accurate. Now I am going to find that female ghost."

After Jiang Shao finished speaking, he was ready to leave.

And Xu Lan stopped him, "Leave a contact information, in case something happens to me in the future, I will call you."

Jiang Shao nodded, feeling that what Xu Lan said was necessary, so he took out a piece of talisman paper, wrote the address and contact information on the back, and handed it to Xu Lan.

Xu Lan took it with a smile.

And Jiang Shao didn't stay too long, and left in a hurry.

The moment the door was closed, Xu Lan let go of her hand, her face full of pain and forbearance.

The talisman paper fell to the ground, and the corners were blackened from scorching.

As for Xu Lan's right hand, the pads of his index finger and thumb all suddenly showed signs of decay, which even looked a little scary.

After all, the talisman paper is what those Taoist priests have learned all their lives and passed down from generation to generation, so it is still somewhat useful.

It was she who neglected.

Xu Lan took out a roll of bandages expressionlessly and wrapped her hands tightly.

And at this moment, Song Mo knocked on the door again.

Xu Lan put the remaining bandages back into the drawer, sat back at the table, and said softly, "Come in."

As soon as Song Mo entered the door, he put a plate of baked cakes on Xu Lan's table, and asked curiously, "Shopkeeper, how did you drive away that psychopath just now?"

Naturally, Xu Lan would not explain the reason to her, so she said: "Didn't you just find a reason to perfunctory him, this kind of person doesn't need to be serious with him, just follow along."

Song Mo nodded vigorously, his eyes full of admiration, "I understand! The best way to deal with an idiot is to follow him and turn him into a big idiot!"

Xu Lan frowned slightly.

Did she mean that?

Forget it, it doesn't matter.

Xu Lan pointed to the paper talisman that fell on the ground before, and said to Song Mo, "Pick it up for me."

"it is good."

Song Mo immediately bent down to pick up the talisman paper and put it on Xu Lan's table.

Sure enough, human beings will not feel anything when they touch these talisman papers.

After Song Mo left, Xu Lan recorded all the contact information on this talisman paper on his mobile phone.

Xu Lan's intuition told her that this contact method is likely to be useful.

But if Jiang Shao can solve the female ghost directly, it will be the easiest.

Just looking at Jiang Shaona's appearance, the possibility should not be great.

But these two days, she can't sit still, she still has to spend some time and energy to understand the situation clearly.

So Xu Lan called Yan Shu with apologetic voice, "I have some things to do these two days, so I won't pick you up from school, and the tutoring will also be suspended for two days."

Yan Shu was stunned for a moment, and asked worriedly, "Did something happen in the shop?"

"No." Xu Lan denied. In order to dispel Yan Shu's doubts, she did not forget to tell her, "You still have to do your exercises, and I will check them together the day after tomorrow."

"Okay." Yan Shu responded obediently, but she was obviously still worried, "If there is anything I can help, you must tell me, and you can't hide it from me."

Xu Lan could imagine the serious look on the little girl's face when she said this, even though it was impossible for her to tell Yan Shu many things, she still agreed.

Xu Lan hesitated for a moment, but still told her, "Go home early after school these two days, don't stay outside, and don't talk to strangers."

Yan Shu laughed "puchi" and asked her back, "Are you still treating me like a child?"

Xu Lan didn't joke with her as usual, but her voice was more serious, "Promise me, you will do it."

Yan Shu was stunned for two seconds. She didn't expect Xu Lan to be so serious, so she repeated obediently, "I promise, I will go home immediately after school, and I will not stay outside or talk to strangers."

The next night after school, Yan Shu followed what Xu Lan said, and walked out of the school with her schoolbag on her back.

But unexpectedly, she saw a familiar person, Mucher.

The boy was the same as before, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, wearing a white shirt, and standing there with a blank expression, which attracted the attention of many girls passing by.

Yan Shu's biggest impression of Mu Che is——

Love to pretend. Force.

At this moment, he must think that he is very handsome, every day he looks like a serious person, but in fact he has never done any human affairs.

If the two burly boys behind him could stand a little farther away, his image might be more realistic.

But to a certain extent, Mucher and she are the same kind of person.

She plays the soft girl here every day, while Mu Che is pretending to be gentle. It's a pity that they don't form a group to participate in "The Birth of an Actor".

Yan Shu immediately withdrew her eyes, complaining secretly in her heart, but on the surface she acted as if she hadn't seen it, and walked forward without looking sideways.

Except for the last time they met in a haunted house, the two of them hadn't been in contact for so many years. It was impossible for Mu Che to come looking for her.

Yan Shu was thinking in her heart, but a hand suddenly stopped in front of her.

Blocked her way and slapped her in the face at the same time.

Yan Shu reluctantly looked at him, her eyes almost rolled into the sky, "I'll give you a minute, if you have something to say, don't delay me going home."

Mu Che stood in front of her with his arms folded, his chin raised high, and in a commanding tone, "Give me your cousin's WeChat."

Yan Shu: "?"

Neuropathy.

So she stopped looking at Mu Che, turned around and continued walking forward.

Unexpectedly, a person ran up to him suddenly.

The man ran so fast that he almost bumped into Yan Shu.

Yan Shu staggered back a few steps before she managed to stand firm. At the same time, she also recognized the person in front of her. It was Mu Jiang who had skipped school all afternoon.

Mu Jiang kept saying sorry, and was stunned when he looked up and saw Yan Shu, "Sister Shu? Where are you going in such a hurry?"

Yan Shu felt that she should ask him this question.

But now Yan Shu is too lazy to argue with him, she still remembers Xu Lan's advice to go home early.

And the next second, Mu Jiang looked behind Yan Shu again, and shouted in disbelief, "Cousin!"

cousin?who?

The moment Yan Shu asked this question in her heart, she actually had the answer.

She turned around slowly, and the person standing behind her was of course not someone else, but Mu Che.

Oh, this scene looks familiar, and Mu Jiang's expression is as awkward as that day when she and Qi Zhi met in the haunted house.

In the next second, something even more incredible happened.

Wearing gold-rimmed glasses and wearing a white shirt, Mu Che looked at Mu Jiang with a half-smile and looked at Mu Jiang, "Isn't this just after school? Why did you walk in from outside the school? You skipped class again?"

Mu Jiang stammered and said, "Cousin, listen to my explanation. In fact, it's because of..."

Mu Jiang paused for a moment, then turned around and ran away.

And Mu Che took an iron rod from the younger brother behind him, and chased after Mu Jiang, destroying his avatar in a second.

After witnessing such a farce, Yan Shu said, "?"

What are these two doing here?

Mu Che doesn't study by himself, but still cares about Mu Jiang, it's a double standard.

But she hasn't come home after school today, is it just to waste time watching this farce?

Yan Shu shook her head with a complicated expression. After all, she had no interest in other people's affairs.

After such a long delay, it might be a little late to take the bus back home. In order to fulfill the agreement with Xu Lan, she decided to take a taxi home.

However, when Yan Shu reached out to stop the car, suddenly a person jumped out from an unknown corner, rushed to Yan Shu with lightning speed, and grabbed her wrist that was outstretched in the air.

Standing in front of her was a teenager wearing a baseball cap, staring at the necklace in her hand with a serious expression, as if she had seen a ghost.

Yan Shu broke free and gave the young man a crazy look.

She was about to leave when the boy blocked her with his arms open again, shouting, "Please wait!"

Yan Shu was silent.

Who is this again:

Today, one or two came to her and went crazy, when will she go home?

The boy hurriedly asked: "Where did this bracelet on your hand come from?"

Yan Shu looked down unconsciously, the lavender crystal was crystal clear, shining beautifully in the sun.

Thinking that this bracelet was given by Xu Lan, Yan Shu felt that her face suddenly looked better, "I'm sorry, it's a gift from a friend, there is no link."

"I didn't ask you for a link, I meant..."

Before the boy finished speaking, Yan Shu opened his hand and rushed directly into a taxi parked not far away.

The moment she got into the taxi, Yan Shu breathed a sigh of relief. Although she encountered many inexplicable things today, fortunately she can finally go home.

Before the car door closed, the inexplicable boy seemed to shout a few words to her, what is it...

Oh yes, watch out for ghosts!

She didn't see the ghost, but she saw a lot of neuropathy.

Yan Shu shook her head emotionally, then put all these aside, lowered her head and started playing with her phone.

Jiang Shao stood where he was, frowning tightly.

He had seen the bracelet on the girl's hand just now, but only in the book.

The magic of ghosts can be turned into crystals. Wearing them on people's bodies is an oath of sovereignty over this human being, so that other ghosts cannot come close to harm.

However, creatures like ghosts, if they want to kill a human, they usually do it directly, so that it will not be so troublesome, let alone protect human beings sincerely, so this is the first time he has seen such a crystal in reality.

As for the purple crystal just now, its color is extremely pure and clear, which means that it has not killed anyone or turned into a ghost.

The female ghost he was going to chase had at least dozens of victims. If the spell turned into a crystal, the color must be extremely dark or even black, and it cannot be such a pure and transparent purple.

Jiang Shao gripped the wooden sign even tighter.

He suddenly had a reasonable guess.

This city, which has never been haunted, now hides more than one ghost.

He felt that the responsibility on his shoulders became heavier. He wanted to get rid of those two ghosts and protect the safety of all humans in this city!

Suddenly, the bell on his right wrist shook violently again.

Jiang Shao looked down at the bell in astonishment.

Before he left, he set a spell in front of the door of the haunted house in Changshan, and if a ghost tried to enter from here, he would be aware of it.

That ghost went to Changshan Haunted House again?

Thinking of this, he didn't stop at the entrance of No. [-] Middle School, and hurried to Changshan Haunted House.

And at this moment, in front of the Changshan Haunted House.

Xu Lan gritted her teeth and looked at the spell on the door, and cursed the first swear word ever.

"Fuck. Fuck."

This damn celestial master actually put a ghost-blocking talisman on the door of her haunted house?

The current situation is very simple, she can't get in.

Absurd, very absurd!

Xu Lan raised her head and silently looked at the signboard of her haunted house. For the first time, she felt what it means to have a home and not go back.

And at this moment, Jiang Shao's side probably also received some news through this talisman, she can't stay here any longer, or she will be caught right away.

So Xu Lan immediately turned and left.

Of course, she didn't forget to send Song Mo a text message to remind her.

[I'm not here for these two days, so I'll leave it to you in the store, and the bonus will be doubled this month]

Song Mo replied almost instantly.

[Good store manager! 】

At this moment, Xu Lan can only find a hotel to settle down.

After opening a single room, Xu Lan sat at the end of the bed, her expression still ugly.

She sent Song Mo another message.

[The store has not been cleaned for a long time, take some time tomorrow, especially the gate. 】

Song Mo didn't return until 5 minutes later.

【Okay, store manager. 】

Xu Lan threw the phone aside irritably, and reached out to rub her hair.

Her hair was messed up abruptly, and her head hurt even more.

There is always some weird discomfort in her heart, which seems to be heralding the next thing, which may be far more troublesome than she thought.

After school the next afternoon, Yan Shu saw Mu Che again at the school gate.

The temperature has dropped again today, and Mu Che's standard white shirt finally has an extra coat.

of course it doesn't matter

Yan Shu still wanted to ignore him and leave, but Mu Che still shamelessly blocked her way.

Yan Shu took a deep breath, "Although you may not believe it, I really don't have Qi Zhi's WeChat account!"

Yan Shu didn't lie to Mu Che, because after the last time the secret room was over, she was so angry with the plastic bracelet that she couldn't eat for three days, and finally gave Qi Zhi a one-stop service to blackmail and delete.

And Mu Che shook his head, "I didn't come here today because of this matter."

Yan Shu immediately replied, "Mu Jiang didn't skip class today, he slept behind me for a whole day."

Much anger was evident on Mu Che's face.

Just when Yan Shu thought that he was going to rush in and beat Mu Jiang, and she could leave, Mu Che shook his head at her again, "It's not for this matter."

What else can there be between them?

Yan Shu couldn't think of an answer at all.

In the next second, Mu Che smiled provocatively at her, "I visited your school's forum yesterday."

Yan Shu asked warily, "So?"

Mucher said: "I found that you are really a man of the year in No. [-] Middle School. Your arrogance is no less than before. No wonder so many classmates hate you."

"I don't have time or interest to chat with you." Yan Shu felt bored, so she pushed Mu Che away.

But this time, Mu Che put his hand directly on Yan Shu's shoulder, "We met in the secret room last time, and you actually know my cousin, which shows that we are also somewhat destined."

Yan Shu didn't speak, but grabbed Mu Che's hand fiercely and wanted to turn it up.

She said a word coldly, "Get lost."

Mu Che reacted very quickly, and immediately followed Yan Shu's force to break free of his hand, so as not to end up with a broken bone.

But even so, he didn't have the slightest intention of getting out of the way.

Mucher smiled and continued, "It just so happens that I hate you too, just like before."

Yan Shu responded directly, "Crazy."

Hate her and take the initiative to come to her?It's not what being sick is.

And Mu Che was not angry, but moved his golden curly hair to the side a little, and a faint scar appeared on his left eyebrow.

And this scar also brought back Yan Shu's memories.

Well, it should have fallen from the previous fight.

Mu Che raised one corner of his lips and smiled, "I remember, I said at the time that this matter will not end that easily."

Yan Shu rolled her eyes,

She also had a scar on her knee, she didn't even bother to argue with Mu Che, what is Mu Che fussing about here?It's the first time after so many years to turn over old accounts.

But Yan Shu didn't want to care about it, so she asked directly: "So?"

"Fight with me, fight in a dignified way, and let me see the level of the miraculous school bully you boasted on the forum." Mu Che rolled up his sleeves as he spoke, moving slowly and still. With a bit of elegance, the premise is to ignore what he is saying about a fight.

Yan Shu looked at him with a complicated expression.

Does she look really idle?Mu Che is really looking for trouble.

Yan Shu was about to verbally insult Mu Che, but Mu Che's fist swung directly at her face.

Before the brain had time to react, the body's instinct allowed Yan Shu to dodge immediately.

And the commotion between the two of them at the door was not small. For a while, many students stopped in their tracks, their eyes full of curiosity and seven points of watching the excitement.

Yan Shu was also a little annoyed immediately.

Now that Mu Che has already made a move, if she doesn't fight back, she will really look too useless.

Yan Shu looked down at what she was wearing today, the black skirt, which actually limited her performance a bit.

But dealing with Mu Che is still very easy.

So Yan Shu took a step back, raised her head and looked at Mu Che, with a hint of disgust in her eyes, "I didn't expect you to be so narrow-minded, and you could still remember those bad things for so many years, if that's the case, then it will be as you wish."

At this moment, a gust of cold wind blows.

Yan Shu felt that her tone and demeanor when she said this must be very similar to the worldly masters in martial arts novels.

How could the beating of Mu Che be called bullying? It was clearly a way to uphold justice.

only……

Yan Shu was slightly stunned, because she found that Mu Che's gaze had passed her by some time, and looked behind her, with a flash of fear on his face.

Even though Mu Che tried his best to cover it up, Yan Shu could still tell that the fear really existed.

The existence that makes Mucher feel scared?For some reason, Yan Shu suddenly remembered the look in Mu Che's eyes when she woke up after fainting in the haunted house.

Changshan Haunted House, Yan Shu suddenly had a bad guess.

She sniffed her nose vigorously, and there seemed to be a faint fragrance in the air, which was very familiar to Yan Shu.

Ah, this... Yan Shu was immediately able to determine who was standing behind her.

At the same time, her face was also wrinkled like a little bun, and her brain was working rapidly.

In the next second, she came up with a strategy to deal with it.

Yan Shu immediately continued what she had just said, looked up at Mu Che, her voice was extremely sincere, "If that's the case, then I will do as you wish, I...I apologize to you!"

Mucher: "?"

Students around: "???"

The author has something to say: Yan Shu: As long as I react fast enough, I won’t be able to catch up with me if I lose my horse

Mucher:?Did she take the wrong medicine?

Xu Lan: She is so obedient, so cute, and easily arouses the protective desire of ghosts!
