Chapter 1130 The pale man

Seeing those two beams of red light, Yang Xiaowu walked quickly in that direction as if he had found a life-saving straw.

But when Yang Xiaowu took a closer look, she realized that the two red lights were actually two big red lanterns, hanging high on both sides of the door.

In front of it is a large house with an antique style and does not feel like a modern building.

And the surroundings are bare, it seems like there is only one house.

After living in Wenshui County for so many years, Yang Xiaowu has walked this road back and forth so many times that Yang Xiaowu can never remember when there was such a large house here.

Yang Xiaowu looked at the big house, a little hesitant and even a little uneasy. She walked to the door and hesitated for a while, not knowing whether to knock on the door or not.

But in this barren mountain, no one else can be found to help.

In the end, Yang Xiaowu gritted her teeth, grabbed the iron ring on the door, and knocked lightly a few times: "Is anyone there?"

After shouting a few times, but no footsteps were heard, the door made a harsh sound and slowly opened. A head poked out from the yard and glanced at Yang Xiaowu warily: "

Who are you looking for?"

Yang Xiaowu glanced at the person who opened the door. He was a middle-aged man with oily hair and a mustache. He looked about fifty years old. His face was pale and there was no trace of blood.

After being stunned for a moment, Yang Xiaowu said with a cry: "Hello, uncle, I was passing by. My car hit a tree on the road ahead and couldn't start. I want to ask you to help me repair it.

Is the car available?"

"I don't know how to repair cars, so you can leave." The man said impatiently.

"Then can you call the police for me? Or if you have a phone at home, I can contact my family." Yang Xiaowu said unwillingly.

"No, there is nothing like what you said." The middle-aged man said and was about to close the door.

Yang Xiaowu quickly reached out to stop the man and said, "Uncle, can you let me stay here for a while? I will leave after dawn. It's too scary outside."

When the middle-aged man was about to speak, a voice suddenly came from behind him: "Who is it?"

"Passing by," the middle-aged man said with some fear.

"Let him come in, the old lady said, the visitor is a guest, you can't drive him away." This was the voice of a middle-aged woman.

The middle-aged man responded and glanced at Yang Xiaowu: "If you don't leave, you will regret it."

With that said, the middle-aged man turned and left.

Yang Xiaowu didn't know what he meant, so she turned around and glanced at the dark behind her, and quickly ducked into the yard.

As soon as you enter, the door creaks shut by itself.

After entering the door, there was a middle-aged woman with her head tied up, looking at Yang Xiaowu with a smile.

This middle-aged woman looked to be in her forties or fifties, and her face was very pale, frighteningly white, without any blood at all.

"Auntie...I was passing by..."

"I know, come in with me."

Just as Yang Xiaowu was about to explain, the woman waved her hand and directly interrupted Yang Xiaowu. Then she turned and walked towards the yard, asking Yang Xiaowu to follow her closely.

As Yang Xiaowu walked, she looked around in the yard.

This courtyard is very big, and it is the kind of large house where several people can enter and exit. In ancient times, those who could live in such a courtyard were either landlords or rich people.

The yard is very elegantly repaired, clean, and planted with many green plants. There is also a pomegranate tree in the second yard. The pomegranates on the tree are large, round, and very attractive.

The middle-aged woman brought Yang Xiaowu into a living room and asked her to sit for a while, saying that she wanted to invite their old lady to come over and meet her.

No matter what he said, he finally saw someone. Although Yang Xiaowu had many doubts in his heart, he was not as scared as before.

Not long after she sat down, a little girl brought over a cup of tea and placed it next to Yang Xiaowu for her to drink tea.

Yang Xiaowu thanked the little girl, glanced at her, and found that the little girl's face was also very pale, and she looked like she was at least ten years old.

After walking such a long way, she felt a little thirsty. Yang Xiaowu picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then spit it out on the ground.

The taste of this tea is a bit strange and not very pleasant.

She had never tasted such awful tea.

Before Yang Xiaowu could put down her tea cup, she looked up and saw seven or eight people standing in front of her, which shocked Yang Xiaowu.

She didn't know when these people appeared, and there was no movement at all when they walked.

The first thing that caught the eye was an old lady with white hair, a cane in her hand, and wrinkles on her face. There were several maids and servants standing beside her, like stars over the moon, surrounding the old lady.

In the middle.

The old lady was wearing very luxurious clothes, bright red and green, which felt a little strange.

However, the old lady looked a bit amiable to the Taoist priest, so Yang Xiaowu immediately relaxed her guard.

"Hello, grandma, I was passing by and my car crashed. I want to stay at your house for one night. I wonder if you would like..." Yang Xiaowu stood up and said very politely.

"Everyone has trouble when they go out. It's okay. You can stay here for one night and leave early tomorrow morning." The old lady smiled, and the wrinkles on her face turned into flowers.

"Thank you, grandma." Yang Xiaowu quickly thanked her.

"Little girl, are you hungry? I'll ask the servants to prepare some food for you. You can take a bath and then have a good sleep. You can leave tomorrow." The old lady said again.

"I'm not hungry. I just had dinner with my friends."

"It's okay. I have some snacks I made here. You can try them..." The old lady waved her hand, and then several maids with pale faces and colorful clothes came forward one by one carrying fruit plates and put them on the table.

On the table next to Yang Xiaowu.

Yang Xiaowu took a look, but saw that the snacks placed in the fruit plate looked very delicate, and they were made with great care.

The old lady kept urging Yang Xiaowu to eat quickly.

Yang Xiaowu picked up a piece of snack, smelled it first, and found that there was no taste at all. Then she bit it and chewed it, but found that there was no taste at all.

So I took two bites and put it down.

At this time, the old lady suddenly smiled and said: "Why, isn't it delicious?"

"It's delicious. I'm so full that I can't eat any more." Yang Xiaowu said awkwardly.

"Good boy, I'll stay here tonight. Grandma has a question to ask you. You have to answer me truthfully." The old lady said with a smile.

"Grandma, you said..."
