Chapter 136: Bamboo Ferry

"Not here yet?"

Chang Ying couldn't help asking as she walked in the bamboo forest.

Everyone had already passed the seventh bamboo village, but the courtyard of the Hao family’s sister was still nowhere to be seen.

"It's just around the corner." Hao Tian quickened his pace.

Soon, everyone saw a fork in the road.

There is a road sign here that says "Private property, no trespassing."

"Wow~"

A rustling sound of bamboo leaves rubbing against each other came from the forest, as if a predator was lurking in the dark.

Lu Ran frowned slightly and pulled down the red scarf covering his eyes.

He saw the road sign and also saw a camouflaged figure in the bamboo forest to the right front.

Military soldier?

The residence of Hao's sister is actually guarded by special soldiers?

This mysterious believer of the Forgotten Spring.
I'm afraid there's something.

"Let's go, it's in this forest." Hao Tian turned into the bamboo forest path and walked deeper.

"By the way, what is Brother Hao's sister's name?" Lu Ran asked.

"Li Rouyin." When mentioning his sister, Hao Tian's tone softened a lot, "Rou is as gentle as water, Yin is as fragrant as grass."

Chang Ying asked curiously, "Last name: Li? Aren't you siblings?"

Hao Tian: "We are siblings, twins, and she takes her mother's surname."

"Twins, boy and girl~" Chang Ying was a little envious, "What a blessing! I want one too in the future."

Hao Tian: “.”

In this special world, Daxia needs population and gods need believers, and the government especially encourages early childbirth.

People can get a marriage certificate when they are 18 years old, and this is only the official regulation. When it comes to the actual practice among the people, the marriage age may be even earlier.

It is normal for Chang Ying to say such things at the age of 17.

But Hao Tian always feels that he is being taken advantage of?
"Huh?"

"Wow!" Deng Yutang and Tian Tian looked up with surprise on their faces.

Walking along the path in the bamboo forest, there are tall bamboo trees everywhere and the view is not very wide.

However, a huge mansion broke through the blockade of bamboo and wood and came into the eyes of everyone.

"So grand." Chang Ying muttered softly.

Everyone thought that my sister would live in a small bamboo house with a small yard at most.

The result is this.
Such a big house looks like the mansion of a wealthy family in ancient times.

The only difference is that both the huge house and the high courtyard walls are made of bamboo and wood.

Above the gate, there is a huge plaque with the words "Youhuangdu".

"Hmm?" Lu Ran's expression stiffened.

It was not because of the size of the house, but because he smelled an increasingly strong "ghostly aura"!
Yes, that damp, moldy smell in a dark basement.

The closer we get, the stronger the ghostly aura in the air becomes.

By the time everyone walked out of the bamboo forest and stood in a relatively open area, facing the gate of the mansion, Lu Ran already felt a chill down his spine!

This. This this?

"Brother Lu?" Hao Tian turned around and found that Lu Ran had already stopped and was more than ten meters away from the others.

"Master?"

"Ran Bao?" Several people also came to their senses and turned to look at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran hesitated for a moment and confirmed: "My sister lives here?"

"Yeah." Hao Tian didn't understand, "What's wrong?"

what happened?
Lu Ran pursed his lips, feeling extremely uneasy.

In the eyes of others, this is just a magnificent mansion.

Hidden in the woods, quiet and elegant.

But in Lu Ran's eyes, there are only two words to describe this house - evil nest!
Apart from the fact that there is no black air rising into the sky and no black fog swinging around like black silk, what is the difference between this and the evil nest?
Gusts of sinister wind!

It's even more lifeless!

Lu Ran calmed down and asked, "Does your sister live alone?"

Hao Tian nodded and said, "Rou Yin lives alone, but she carries a deity with her, which is also located here."

Lu Ran's heart trembled!
No wonder it smells so ghostly!
Damn, isn't this a solved case?

Lord Wangquan is actually an evil god? !

Wait, that's not right either.

Lu Ran looked around, and with the help of evil magic and evil consciousness, he easily found the soldiers stationed in the forest.

The Demonic Cave and Bamboo Sea is under the official control of Daxia, and the degree of control is very high.

How could the god that Li Rouyin worships be an evil god?

How could she and her evil god live in peace? They should have been destroyed long ago!

"Brother Lu." Hao Tian seemed to realize something. "You really have sharp senses, right?"

"What's going on?" Deng Yutang frowned and returned to Lu Ran with his two teammates.

Hao Tian said, "After entering the house, you will also notice it. I thought that we can explain it together then.

But now it seems that Brother Lu has discovered it?"

Lu Ran nodded slightly: "I am more sensitive to the existence of evil spirits."

"what?"

"Evil demon? In the house?" Upon hearing this, several people were shocked.

When they looked at the mansion again, everyone's expressions changed.

The original tranquility turned into deathly silence.

"Brother Lu, don't worry. Lady Wangquan is not an evil god." Hao Tian explained, "She is just a little special."

The soldiers in the forest became Hao Tian's strongest guarantor: "There are military personnel everywhere here, Brother Lu, don't worry."

"Hmm." Lu Ran hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, "Okay."

Lu Ran was really curious about this mysterious god.

He was also quite certain that there was no statue of the god Wangquan in his own sculpture garden of gods and demons.

With the support of the Daxia military, we can indeed investigate a little.

Led by Hao Tian, ​​everyone walked into the mansion.

There are several huge clusters of evil bamboo in the courtyard, standing in the center of the courtyard.

There were east and west wing rooms on the left and right sides, all with their doors tightly closed. Passing by the evil bamboo in the middle, not far in front of everyone, was a larger main room, and it was a two-story building.

Judging from the outside, this house is definitely more than just this size, and it must have a backyard.

"I felt it too. It was chilly." Chang Ying muttered softly, with goose bumps appearing on her arms.

"Yeah." Tian Tian quietly reached out and hugged Chang Ying's arm.

Of course everyone could smell the ghostly aura, but their noses were not as good as Lu Ran's.

"Royin?" Hao Tian stood in front of the main room with the door closed, looking up at the open window on the second floor.

The courtyard was silent, which made Hao Tian's voice seem very abrupt.

"Rou Yin?" Hao Tian waited for a moment and called again, "My training mission is over. This time, I brought you some duck goods."

Finally, a young woman's voice came from inside the window:

"Leave it at the door."

Her voice was cold and a little distant.

Just one sentence made this quiet house seem a little cold and desolate.

Looking at Hao Tian at this moment, where is the arrogance that a Dong Ting follower should have?

He scratched his hair in distress and spoke again: "I met a few outstanding young people on the way and wanted to get to know you."

A light breeze blew, and only the bamboo leaves rustled, but the woman made no response.

Hao Tian refused to give up: "If you stay alone every day, you will get sick sooner or later.

Every time you go out, you have to go through all those things again. Talk to people your age."

Finally, a woman's faint voice was heard from the second-floor window: "No, everyone please go back."

Several people looked at each other.

Wow, he’s even more cool and arrogant than all the followers of Jianyi?

Hao Tian still did not give up: "At least let the guests pay respect to Lord Wangquan. This is the etiquette of believers."

It can be seen that this brother really tried his best.

Suddenly, a slender hand fell on the window sill. Even the lines on the knuckles were very shallow, like a finely crafted work of art.

The only thing that isn't beautiful is that this palm seems too white.

Then, a beautiful figure stood in front of the window.

The woman had an extremely beautiful face, which made everyone secretly admire her.

The flaws are equally obvious, just like her hands, they are too white.

Even like a sickly white.

However, it has not reached the "pale" level of the evil demon Yanzhiren, so it is still within the scope of beauty.

She frowned slightly, somewhat dissatisfied: "Lord Wangquan doesn't like too many people to know her existence, you..."

Before she finished speaking, the woman stopped.

Her eyes were extremely empty, but they were fixed on the figures of Lu Ran and the others.

Strangely enough, her eyes were clearly out of focus and she obviously couldn't see anything.

But everyone felt that the other party was just sizing them up.

Lu Ran never thought that one day he would be stared at by a pair of lifeless eyes to the point of feeling uneasy.

"Nice to meet you." Lu Ran broke the weird atmosphere.

Li Rouyin nodded slightly, and her attitude changed slightly.

She opened her thin lips and said calmly, "Lord Wangquan doesn't like to be disturbed, so just take them to worship outside the temple."

Hao Tian's face lit up, and he picked up the bamboo basket: "Okay, I'll take them there right away!

Come down too, have something to eat and satisfy your craving."

"Bring the things up." Li Rouyin stepped back and her pretty figure disappeared in front of the window.

"No problem!" Hao Tian said immediately.

From inside the window, a cold voice came again: "Ask the one who just spoke to take it."

In an instant, several people looked at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran: “.”

Hao Tian looked embarrassed and walked quickly towards Lu Ran: "Brother, help me!
She has been alone for a long time, so her temper is bound to be a little bit bad. It's rare for her to want to eat, so please help her."

Lu Ran whispered, "Is your sister really blind?"

Hao Tian: "Why would I lie to you about this? I dream that she will be healthy and free from all disasters!"

Lu Ran nodded and reached out to take the bamboo basket.

"Thank you!" Hao Tian patted Lu Ran's shoulder heavily, and then quickly walked to the main door.

As the door opened, everyone realized that this was not the main house, but the main hall, similar to a reception hall.

The house is filled with various bamboo and wooden furniture, which are exquisite and unique.

Going forward, there are two more big doors on the left and right, and there is a different world in the backyard.

The courtyard is not only filled with lush bamboo and trees, but also has stone paths, and is surrounded by rockery, ponds, and exotic flowers and plants.

"Go up from there." Hao Tian pointed to a corner of the main room, "Please, Brother Lu.

If she says anything excessive or offensive, don't bother with her! I'll apologize to you after we get out, and I'll make it up to you in any way I can!

Brother, I owe you this! If you have any questions in the future, just ask me! "

Tian Tian was a little worried and whispered, "Is there any danger?"

Hao Tian was also somewhat helpless: "How could there be any danger? It's just that the temperament of the gods here is a little special.

This is the territory controlled by Da Xia, and I am also a serious believer and student.

Look, this is my student ID from Qiantangjiang University."

"Okay." Lu Ran glanced at his brother who was asking humbly, picked up the bamboo basket, and walked towards the bamboo steps.

"Thank you very much, Brother Lu!" Hao Tian spoke quickly and in a low voice, "Please persuade her to eat more. It's better to eat all the duck wings."

Lu Ran waved his hand and went up to the second floor step by step.

"You have a pair of beautiful eyes." He heard Li Rouyin's soft voice before he went up to the second floor.

Lu Ran:?
He slowed down his pace and was hesitant when the woman's cold voice came again:

“I want to take them off.”

Lu Ran turned around and left without saying a word!
wipe,
This idiot, whoever wants to give nm can give it, but I won’t give it to anyone.

This is too scary!

Hearing the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs, Hao Tian in the hall was completely stunned!
He saw Lu Ran's hurried figure and asked hurriedly, "Brother Lu, hey? Where are you going, Brother Lu?"

Three updates today: 12, 18, and 22.
