C12 Third Uncle Is Unreliable

"Uh. Have you heard of Thousand Souls Road? " I asked doubtfully.

The girl trembled again. Obviously, she had heard of this before, and she was very afraid of this place.

"You said this is the Thousand Souls Path?" After the girl calmed down, she suddenly frowned at me.

I nodded. "Yes, this is the Thousand Souls Road."

"I'm Yu Mengxuan, what's your name?" The girl's expression was calm, even to the point that it was difficult for her to look at him properly.

I replied, "My name is Zhao Lianfaan. You were probably kidnapped by someone. However, I can't send you home now. I still have something to do."

Yu Mengxuan said blandly, "Shouldn't you say that I am your savior and send you back?"

I looked at her doubtfully. "I really do want to send you back, but I really don't have the time right now."

"After you send me back home, you want some benefits from my dad. Isn't that what a script should be like?" Yu Mengxuan interrupted me.

"What script?"

Yu Mengxuan sneered, "Don't think that I don't know. You just want to get close to me on purpose. If I'm not mistaken, those two people are your accomplices, right? Using ghosts to fool others, your methods are just too despicable. Do you think that just because you're a hero saving the beauty, I will be grateful to you? Even with you? "

It was only after she said that did I completely understand. No wonder her attitude changed so quickly.

I helplessly shook my head. "If you think so, then I can't do anything about it. The coffin shop is outside and those two people haven't gone far. You'd better wait until daybreak before leaving. I'll be leaving first."

"Hey!" When Yu Mengxuan saw me turn around to leave, she immediately stood up. She randomly tidied up her clothes and quickly came to my side. She extended her hand to grab my arm.

"What?" I asked doubtfully.

"What will I do if you leave?" Yu Mengxuan said.

I replied speechlessly, "Are you saying that I'm in cahoots with them? I'll take you to the den of thieves and see what you do. "

"Didn't you want the benefits? As long as you send me home, I'll ask my dad to give you a hundred thousand." Obviously, it's not because she trusts me, but because she's afraid to stay here.

"I won't send you home, I still have to find me, Third Uncle, so I don't have time." I shook off Yu Mengxuan's hands and walked out.

Yu Mengxuan also quickly followed me out. When she saw the messy coffins and those paper pegs outside, she cried out and hugged me tightly from behind.

"What are you doing?" I simply stopped there, feeling extremely helpless in my heart. I have a wife, and Zhao Yixian is in my jade pendant, it isn't proper for me to cuddle with her like this.

"Me. I want to go out with you! " Yu Mengxuan whispered as she buried her head in my back, not daring to look around.

I opened her hands and said, "It's fine as long as you follow me. How am I supposed to walk while you're hugging me?"

"No, I'm scared!" Yu Mengxuan almost yelled out those words.

I said in a low voice, "If you continue shouting, those two people will be back. They pulled on my clothes and followed with their eyes closed!"

Yu Mengxuan finally lost her confidence and whispered, "Ok, don't go too fast."

I nodded and looked at the box in the other corner. There was a ghost sitting on top of this box, I knew it very well. I thought to myself that I should just leave it here and retrieve it after I find Third Uncle.

However, after walking a few steps forward, the box suddenly tilted and moved towards me. I felt a little helpless. It seems that this ghost had hardened his heart and wanted me to bring him away.

With this situation, how could I dare not take the box? Anyway, Grandfather said that Third Uncle learned the real Profound Gate Spell, and he should be able to help me deal with it.

Seeing that I was walking back, the box didn't move. I walked over and pulled the box towards the door. The weight of the box is still the same as sitting on top of the box with the weight of a ghost.

"What is that sound?" Yu Mengxuan asked, afraid to open her eyes.

I replied, "It's my luggage. I just came from outside the city."

"Oh, then I might have misunderstood you." Yu Mengxuan replied without uttering a single word.

When we reached the main street, Yu Mengxuan still didn't open her eyes. She only timidly followed behind me.

I didn't care that much either. If she knew that there was such a disgusting and terrifying Cracked Head Ghost sitting on top of my box, she would definitely be scared to death.

It was safe when we got to store No. 40. I heaved a sigh of relief. Yu Mengxuan suddenly asked, "How long since you last took a bath?"

"Why?"

"I smell a strange smell. It's very smelly." Yu Mengxuan whispered.

I could only helplessly say, "Alright! I haven't taken a bath for many days."

"Have you walked out of the Thousand Chance Road?"

"What are you going out for? "I said that I'm going to find me, Third Uncle."

"You, Third Uncle, live on Thousand Hun Road?" Yu Mengxuan asked in surprise.

"Yes, 44 Thousand Hun Road, we'll be there soon."

"No, I have to get out. You have to send me out." Yu Mengxuan suddenly stopped. 'Rip!' She ripped off a piece of my poor quality clothes. A chill went down her spine.

I turned around and looked at Yu Mengxuan angrily. "There are two paths. Either you come with me to my Third Uncle's home and wait until the next day before leaving. Or you go out by yourself now."

Yu Mengxuan also said seriously, "Take me out. I really told my dad to give you a hundred thousand."

"Boring." I rolled my eyes at her and walked on.

Yu Mengxuan quickly followed and said, "Two hundred thousand." Seeing that I continued to ignore her, she gritted her teeth and said, "500 thousand should be enough, right?"

"Like I said, you only have two options." I said as I walked.

Yu Mengxuan finally gave in and said, "Ok, I will go with you to Third Uncle's house. You have to ensure my safety."

I didn't say anything and silently agreed. Although this Yu Mengxuan might be a little hateful, but if I were to leave her here alone, I wouldn't be able to do it.

Soon, they arrived at number 44. This was not a door, but a three-story villa. The architecture was still from the Republic of China era, but the outside was very shabby. Just like other places, there were no lights when looking in through the iron gate.

I pushed open the metal door and walked in. The metal door creaked, causing Yu Mengxuan, who was behind me, to shudder.

I was also very curious, why is there no one here? Or had Third Uncle already gone to sleep? It couldn't be that Grandpa got the address wrong, right?

I don't think so. I comforted myself and quickly passed through the courtyard outside and arrived at the entrance to the first floor of the villa.

The door was ajar. It opened with a light push. I walked in and took out my phone. I turned on the flashlight and shouted with my mouth wide open: "Third Uncle."

The hall on the first floor of the villa is very large, so my shout caused a few echoes. After a long time, there was still no response, so I turned on the flashlight on my phone and took a look inside. There was indeed someone living inside, as the furniture was very tidy and had been cleaned before.

"Let's go out. You, Third Uncle, isn't home." Yu Mengxuan said.

"He probably went out. Let's wait here." I said as I placed the box by the door and walked directly to the sofa in the middle of the living room and sat down.

Yu Mengxuan also sat down next to me. Her two hands tightly gripped my arm, her nails digging into my flesh. It was extremely painful.

"Relax, my hand is about to break!" I said speechlessly as I leaned back against the sofa. To tell you the truth, I barely had any rest these days, and as soon as I sat down on the sofa, I felt a wave of exhaustion wash over me.

Yu Mengxuan clearly knew that she had used too much strength, so she apologized in a low voice and let go.

"I'm going to sleep for a while." After I said that sentence, I lay down on the sofa. No matter how much Yu Mengxuan made a fuss about it, I was soon confused. In the end, Yu Mengxuan felt helpless and could only tightly lean on me as she slowly fell asleep.

"Yes."

The morning sun shone in through the window, shining on my face. The senses of the light made me wake up from my dream. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a familiar face.

Wasn't this person the motorbike driver with the black car? What's his name, Zhuge Wu?

At this moment, Zhuge Wu was staring at Yu Mengxuan who was beside me, licking her lips. Yu Mengxuan hadn't woken up yet, and was not wearing much, and her clothes were a little damaged.

"Damn!" A black car driver! You still f * cking dare to appear in front of me?! " I sat up abruptly, and Yu Mengxuan woke up.

Zhuge Wu was surprised for a moment, then chuckled and said, "I wanted to ask you, why did you guys come to my house?"

"Your home?" Yu Mengxuan and I asked at the same time. Yu Mengxuan rubbed her eyes and looked at me with a puzzled expression. "Didn't you say that this was Third Uncle's home?"

I turned my head to Zhuge Wu and said, "Isn't this Number 44 Thousand Hun Road my family?"

Zhuge Wu thought for a moment, then looked at me seriously and asked, "Third Uncle? Where did you come from? What's your grandfather's name? "

"I came from Ying Fu Village, my grandfather is called Zhao Xin." I answered directly.

Zhuge Wu's expression changed as he continued asking, "You are the child that this old man adopted?"

"You're me, Third Uncle?" At this moment, I was even more surprised, because this Zhuge Wu didn't look that much older than me.

"En, that's right. I'm you, Third Uncle. Is the old man already dead?" Zhuge Wu asked directly.

My expression darkened again. My grandfather had only died a few days ago, so it was fine if I didn't mention it.

Zhuge Wu chuckled and said, "Life and death will always depend on the heavens. I knew this old man would never be able to escape this calamity. Speak, why did you come find me?"

"Third Uncle, I need your help. It's like this, I have one."

"Wait a moment, I can help, but first you have to tell me, how much money did you bring over?" Zhuge Wu interrupted me.
