C18 Ancient Mansion Soulshake

Under the dim light, I slowly groped my way forward. The house was empty all year round, its walls already covered in cobwebs, dust, and ruins. There were a few ghost-like scenes on TV, and the place I walked should have been the garden at the back of the house.

The trees in the yard were thick, probably hundreds of years old, and the leaves blocked the moonlight. In short, the atmosphere was very strange, and I could feel many pairs of eyes watching from within the invisible branches, and a chill ran down my spine. At this moment, a house appeared in front of me, and it seemed that the people who lived in this house before had a certain status, because the house was very large.

I reached out to push open the wooden house, and with a creak, the wooden door was pushed open. Countless dust rushed out, and I choked and coughed a few times, and just as I stepped into the door, a sound came from the side, and a figure flew over. I subconsciously dodged, and reached out to stop the sound.

"What are you doing here? You scared me to death." I pushed him, causing Chen Ran to stagger and stagger. He was also frightened, clutching his heart, "Aren't you here too?"

"How can that be the same? I'm here for official business, I'm here to capture ghosts." I shot him a glance. "What a coincidence, I'm here to capture ghosts too." Chen Ran patted his chest and said.

I looked at him doubtfully. Looking at his battered appearance, I became even more suspicious, "If it's like that for you, you should go back and wash up." I turned around to leave, planning to familiarize myself with the ancient residence. Chen Ran suddenly grabbed my hand, "I am born with the Yin Yang Eyes."

I turned around in shock. His expression was solemn, and he didn't seem to be joking, so I quietly waited for him to continue. Chen Ran looked at me in the eyes, and I saw sadness in his eyes. When I was born, my mother died because of a difficult birth, and everyone thought that I was the bane of the heavens, because my mother went to the hospital to check up on me when she was six months pregnant with me, and the doctors said that I had no signs of life, that I was probably dead, that my mother could not accept the bad news and did not listen to the doctor, and a few days later she suddenly felt something in her stomach, and after going to the hospital, I actually showed signs of life, and people in the hospital were very surprised, and then a goddess in the village said that I was born a ghost, an ominous symbol. "

Chen Ran's eyes were filled with bitterness and unwillingness, "I took my mother away when I was born, and then I grew up slowly. Since childhood, I didn't have any friends, and everyone was afraid that I would bring them bad luck, so the best person to face me at home was my grandfather, but when I was still in junior high school, my grandfather also died. At that time, I was guarding my grandfather's corpse as I cried my heart out.

Chen Ran was lost in his memories. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he held his head helplessly, like a child who couldn't find his own home. I didn't know how to comfort him, so I could only silently pat his back to ease his pain. He continued in a tearful tone, "No one believed me, but then I gradually realized that I was different from normal people, I could see a lot of things that they couldn't, during that time, my day was dark, I saw countless strange ghosts pass by me, at night I could almost hear their whispers and weeping, I was tortured to the point of collapsing, then I slowly adapted, pretended that I couldn't see them, after leaving my hometown I slowly got together, I heard that masculinity could resist ghosts, so I went to the army, but I didn't think it would be useful. Now that I've retired from the army for two years already, I know why I want to catch ghosts." In the end, Chen Ran's eyes became clear and shone.

I knocked his head. "I didn't expect you to be so miserable. I am also born with the Yin Yang Eyes, but my luck is better than yours. I only recently activated this special ability." I smiled and pointed to my eyes.

Chen Ran looked at me and said indifferently, "When I first met you, I already felt that you had a ghostly aura on you, but you could walk under the sun and everyone could see you. At that time, I was wondering if you were like me, so I decided to follow you." "So you're following me."

Chen Ran shook his head, "I was going to come to this place anyway, but I coincidentally bumped into you." I looked at him incredulously. Chen Ran looked at me, "Then what about you, what kind of person are you, for a girl to come to this kind of sinister place alone, you must have a lot of guts, aren't you afraid?"

I shook the peach wood sword in my hand and said proudly: "The ghost was my nightmare before, now I am the ghost's nightmare." Chen Ran looked at me with doubt in his eyes, "You really came here to catch a ghost, can you do it?" I can't be bothered with him. I'll scare you to death when I catch a ghost.

I took out a red rope and prepared to set up the array. Chen Ran looked at the rope in my hand curiously, I didn't want to bother with him, so I just ignored him, forget it, I'll just take it as a show of courage, although it is just a small oil bottle, I wrapped the red rope around the four corners of the house, and hung a bell on it. This is a spirit sealing array, once the ghosts appear, the rope will move, and once the bell rings, I'll know his direction.

I once again set up the same formation in every room in the house, and then pulled Chen Ran to sit on a stool in the house. Chen Ran looked at the red ropes, "Is it alright like this?" I looked at him, calculated, grabbed his hand and punctured a hole, dripping a few drops of blood on the ground. Then I took out the fire curse and burned it, and the blood evaporated into the air.

Chen Ran held his own finger, feeling indignant. I patted his shoulder and said, "Don't you see that the ghosts on TV all like to absorb the essence from men? When I spread your scent, those ghosts came over themselves." Chen Ran continued to use his gaze to denounce me, I ignored him and just sat down by the side of the table, quietly waiting.

Roughly two hours later, Chen Ran and I yawned countless times, but Chen Ran was a little impatient. "Let's go back. As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a bell suddenly came from afar. I covered Chen Ran's chattering mouth and perked up my ears to listen, but when I focused my mind, there was no sound at all.

I vexedly let go of the hand that was covering Chen Ran and shot a glance at Chen Ran. He's actually blushing, no way, I couldn't help but find it funny, and was just about to tease him for a while, when suddenly, a dark wind blew and the sound of bells came from all directions. The red rope in the room we were in also shook violently, and the sound of the bells reached my ears like they were crying.
