C63

"Consort Fei, should we go back?" Zhong Min looked around in fear, afraid that an evil being like the Yin Coffin would appear.

Since Yan Tan Mo took away my soul, there was no point for me to be here.

"Let's go back!" I pulled Zhong Min along. My head was still in a daze. That coffin was truly strange.

He Shuyi opened his mouth and said, "Let's go back now?"

Zhong Min patted his shoulder and said nonchalantly, "Then you can stay. There's nothing to do here for the corpses. We can chat."

He Zhiyi shivered, "We still haven't figured out who ate Liu Eternal's soul, so why did he go back?"

"There's no need to look for him. Liu Eternal's soul was eaten by that coffin!"

"How do you know?" Why did he ask?

"If you get sucked into a coffin and a bunch of ghosts talk in your ear, don't you think you'll understand?"

To be honest, aside from the voices of the ghosts, there was one other voice that always sounded cold and desolate in the coffin.

This morgue's entrance isn't a good place to think. The three of us took advantage of the night to head to the suburbs. When we arrive, it is already 2 in the morning.

He spent the night at the He family's house. Their house was also a small courtyard, but he lived alone. Both his parents had left the country.

Last night, Zhong Min and I fell asleep after not sleeping well, until the next day at noon when there was a knock on the door.

"Wake up, you two hurry up and eat. After dinner, we still need to go to another place."

"Hey!" Get up! " Why are you shouting so loudly outside the door?

Zhong Min grabbed her pillow and tossed it aside. She got up from the bed angrily and opened the door with a "peng". "What are you shouting for so early in the morning for?" Can't you let me have a good night's sleep? "

After being yelled at by Zhong Min, I woke up completely. I was also stunned to see Zhong Min standing at the entrance in full fury.

Seeing Zhong Min rush out, He Zunyi innocently pointed to the sky. "Big Sis, it's already noon. If you don't get up, the sky will be dark."

"It's already noon?" I immediately jumped out of bed, grabbed Zhong Min's jacket and passed it to her. "I still have something to do today, why would you take us to a sinister place? So we'll take advantage of the noon sun, otherwise, who would dare to go in the dark afternoon."

"Is that so?" Zhong Min took the clothes. "Hehe, Fei Fei, go eat dinner!"

"Aren't you guys washing your faces!" He Yi looked at Zhong Min, who changed her expression so quickly, and mumbled.

The lunch was cooked by He Yi. He put on an apron and carried the dishes to the table in the yard.

"There's no meat in the house, only vegetables. There are a few dishes that have been cooked, you guys can eat." He Zunyi scratched his head in embarrassment.

"It doesn't matter. We can't normally eat such delicious vegetables even if we wanted to!" I took a mouthful of green vegetables, crisp and tender.

Zhong Min also mimicked me by scooping up a mouthful of food. "Look like Consort Fei and I are giving you more face!"

"I don't care if you starve to death, the main thing is you can't starve my partner!" He Zhiyi smiled mischievously at me.

"Tch!"

It was unknown whether it was because he had expended his strength last night or because his culinary skills were better.

I ate two bowls of rice and drank one bowl of vegetable soup until I was full. My mouth still wanted to eat, but my stomach was no longer able to eat anymore.

"This is the most fragrant meal I've ever had!" I gave He Zaiyi a thumbs up. "It's rare to see a man who can cook!"

He Zuyi's answer was unclear, "That's right! You must cherish me! "

Hearing this, Zhong Min cast a glance at him but didn't say anything.

Zhong Min was still eating.

I was also frightened by Zhong Min's appetite today.

"You've already eaten three bowls, do you still want more?"

Seeing the way Zhong Min was eating, He Wenyi stopped eating and looked at her dumbfoundedly. "Is she still a girl?" he asked me. Eat so much? "

I replied very clearly, "Yes!"

Zhong Min stared at the bowl of rice in front of He Sanyi and asked weakly, "Are you still eating? "Give me if you don't want to eat."

Maybe it was because Zhong Min's appetite had scared him, but he pushed the bowl of food in front of her. "Eat first, then we can go."

Actually, it felt good if he went to the place that He Yi described as' that place of evilness'.

"This is the evil place that I told you about!" He Zhiyi stood in front of a yard door and looked up at the red toon tree sticking out of the yard.

"Why can't I feel any Yin Qi at all? This place is a little different from the places we normally go to." I looked at this quaint old courtyard and felt an inexplicable fondness for it.

"Let's go in and take a look first." He Yi pushed open the door. The first thing that came into his view was the red toon tree. The big red toon tree covered almost half of the yard.

Zhong Min touched the red toon tree, which could only be lowered by the arms of two people, and said happily, "It's a great place to enjoy the shade."

He Yi explained the origins of the red toon tree, "That's right. This red toon tree has been growing for more than 200 years. It was planted when the family head had a daughter. I want to wait for my daughter to grow up and make her a dowry."

"Then why isn't it made into a dowry?" Zhong Min turned around and asked.

"I don't know!"

I looked at the red toon tree. "If it was before, every family would plant a red toon tree for their daughter, and when she grew up, the red toon tree would become a dowry. So the red toon tree is also called the wedding tree."

As he spoke, a middle-aged man came out from the house. Upon closer inspection, it was Uncle Li.

He Zhiyi smiled and went up to greet him, "Uncle Li, you didn't go down to the ground today?"

"This afternoon, you have to let me, an old man, rest!"

Uncle Li saw me and Zhong Min. "So it was these two girls."

"Mm, you've met these two before. Bring them to your house and have a look."

Uncle Li was surprised for a moment, then he rubbed his hands in embarrassment, "Do as you please. I'm going to the garden to pick some vegetables. We'll stay here for the night."

He Zhiyi hurriedly replied, "Hey, tell me, do you have more? The two of them ate a lot."

Uncle Li looked at me and hurriedly replied, "Okay!"

"Who said we ate too much? We obviously ate less than you." A slight blush appeared on Zhong Min's face, but her tone remained as fierce as ever.

I laughed. Zhong Min had finally found someone to bicker with.

For some reason, I liked this red toon tree, and the more I looked at it, the more I liked it. I thought that if I gave birth to my daughter in the future, I would also plant a red toon tree for her.

He looked at the Red Toad Tree and then at his surroundings. He didn't know what was so strange about it.

He Yi and Zhong Min were talking about who would eat more during lunch.

I am also very helpless towards this pair of enemies!

"Let's not talk about eating. Let's talk about proper business first."

Zhong Min tilted her head. "What important matter?"

"He Yi was talking about a place that was so strange, but I couldn't see it for a long time."

He Shuyi stopped smiling and said, "Come with me."

He took us around the yard and led us to the door of another room.

"Every night, women's laughter and crying could be heard from this room. Sometimes, I could even see a figure. The weirdest thing is that I've been guarding here for a long time, but I can't feel any ghosts' auras."

"Isn't that all you can do?!"

Although Zhong Min was angry at him, how could she be angry at him?

I was already used to their bickering. "Can I go in?"

"I can enter!"

Pushing the door open and entering, he found that the interior was also very simple and unadorned …

A bed, two cabinets, a dressing table, a table, everything.

I casually said, "Uncle Li is quite diligent. Every day, he would clean this place up so clean. If I had a ghost inside, I wouldn't dare to enter."

He Wenyi looked like he had seen a ghost, "I locked the door before you and I came. No one was cleaning it at all. This is weird. No one is here to bother me. I'm always spotless."

So strange, I used my mind to feel if there was any Yin Qi in the surroundings, including on the table.

"That's strange, I can't feel the presence of ghosts here either."

Could it be another yin coffin?

He Yi suggested, "Then let's stay for the night and watch, because weird things usually happen at night."

"Then we'll stay here. Anyway, the leader wants us to listen to you." I don't care.

Zhong Min didn't mind. "The food is delicious anyway. You can stay for as long as you want!"

Uncle Li was overjoyed to hear that we were going to stay, so he hurried to help us tidy up the house.

Looking at the busy Uncle Li, I whispered, "Could it be that Uncle Li is usually the only one living in this courtyard?"

He Wenyi lowered his voice. "Previously, this courtyard was occupied by Uncle Li's family, but later on Aunt Li passed away due to illness. Only Uncle Li is left, and Uncle Li's children haven't come back for all these years."

"Oh, the pitiful one can be considered a loner."

"Then do you think Uncle Li isn't afraid to live here by himself?" Zhong Min asked, thinking: If she was alone, he would definitely be scared. Even if he was beaten to death, he wouldn't stay in this haunted place.

I also didn't understand. "Since you're causing trouble, why don't you move away?"

"When people get old, there will always be some who love the old. Uncle Li is the same. His children grew up. "He can't bear to part with this place. Besides, he's just a man, there's nothing to be afraid of."

"I really admire Uncle Li's courage."

Back then when Yan Tan Mo inexplicably appeared from the side of the mirror, she scared me half to death. I'm still a Yin Yang Master, I'm afraid, Uncle Li is actually not afraid by himself.

In the evening, Uncle Li went to cook dinner while Zhong Min helped him. We circled the yard a few times, looking for the source of the ghosts.

Dinner was still going on in the yard. It wasn't dark yet, so Uncle Li prepared food and happily brought out a pot of chicken soup from the kitchen. "There's nothing much for you guys to eat. This chicken is raised by your own family. Eat more!"

"Uncle Li, you're too polite!" I'm a little embarrassed.

Uncle Li took out a bottle of wine that he made himself and He Yi started drinking.

This meal was also a happy meal. As he ate, he chatted with Uncle Li.

Uncle Li replied in a single breath, "This courtyard has never been so lively since my wife left."

"I come every day!" He Yi said with a smile.

Uncle Li tilted his head and looked at He Yi. "You brat, if you have something on, just come to my house. Don't think I don't know. You're just greedy, wanting me to cook for you."

"Then can we come here every day from now on?" I chuckled.

"Good!" You two little girls are very pleasing. " Uncle Li took a sip of wine.

He Wen became anxious. "Uncle Li, you can't do this. Before they came, I came every day. You can't treat me like this!"

I looked at the teasing duo and didn't say anything. I raised my head to look at the sky and saw a crescent moon slowly rising from the trunk of the red toon tree. The night scene looked really beautiful.
