[Xiao Wei here wishes you a happy game and looks forward to your next draw~]
Time began to flow, and the paper man flying into the sky flew toward Wen Ning.
The boy's paper mannequin's head suddenly split apart, and a blue-gray hand jumped out from it, attacking Wen Ning's head with lightning speed, but he retracted the moment he was about to touch Wen Ning.
.
The paper figure that jumped in the air fell to the ground with a clatter and remained motionless, especially the other paper figures that were stuck in the air.
Wen Ning got up from the ground with a serious expression and looked at the people walking towards here.
The man looked to be in his sixties, with a stooped build, a goatee on his face, wearing a navy blue robe and a white lantern in his hand.
He smiled and narrowed his eyes, "I think these are the young master's friends when he was studying abroad, Miss Wen, Miss Li, and young master Zhang. I was delayed by some things and I'm late. It's getting dark soon. Come back home with me."
.”
"I'm not leaving." Zhang San snorted coldly, "I've brought these moving paper figures to welcome guests. Who knows if I can survive if I go back with you. If we hadn't been lucky just now, you wouldn't have been able to see us.
!”
The old man's smile faded and his sharp gaze passed across Zhang San's face. Then he stroked his beard with a smile and said: "Hey, young man, what are you talking about? Where are the paper figures?"
"How could it not be? It's right here!"
Faced with the doubt, Zhang San turned around angrily, but his face turned pale when he saw the empty town entrance.
"No...this is not true. It was just..."
Wen Ning pinched Zhang San's mouth into a duck's mouth and said to him with a smile: "Where did the paper man come from? There has always been only one tree here."
A locust tree tied with red silk and hung with bells.
"Can…"
Zhang San wanted to say something else, but his voice gradually died down under Wen Ning's sharp gaze.
"It was you who suffered from hysteria just now. There were no paper figures, right?"
Zhang San wanted to shake his head and dismiss Wen Ning's words, but his gaze inadvertently met the old man's cloudy and empty eyes. His whole body was agitated, and he nodded crazily with tears in his eyes, for fear that the old man wouldn't believe it.
Wen Ning then smiled apologetically and said, "Can you please take us back home? May I ask what we call you?"
"My surname is Tian, just call me Uncle Tian."
Uncle Tian walked a few steps with the lantern, then turned back casually and said: "Miss Wen, you have to take care of your friend. If this hysterical guy says something he shouldn't say in the Li Mansion, Madam will be unhappy.
.”
"Yes, yes."
Wen Ning responded quickly.
The three of them entered Li's Mansion under the leadership of Uncle Tian. After saying goodbye, Zhang San thanked them.
"Sister Wen Ning, thank you just now."
"No, I'm just saving you because I'm afraid you'll hurt me."
Wen Ning responded lightly and began to look around.
Creaking - the wooden door was pushed open, and a maid wearing apricot-colored clothes and a double bun stood beside the door and made a 'please' gesture to the three of them.
"My name is Qiuxia. The residence of the three of you has been arranged. Please come with me."
Several people walked through the winding corridor and met other maids as they passed by. Several of the maids briefly exchanged sympathy with each other when they saw the three of them.
After passing through the third arch, the three of them finally arrived at the door of the wing.
The wing rooms are connected side by side, and apart from the different copper locks in front of each door, there is no other difference.
"You three, this is the wing room you will live in in the future. Please allocate it yourself."
Qiu Xia said, taking out the key with a sign from her sleeve and handing it to Wen Ning and the others.
Three six zero, seven four eight, zero seven four.
Wen Ning took a quick look and waited until Zhang San and Li Manjue finished choosing before she took the last number, 'Qi Si Ba'.
"The three of you have chosen the wing, Qiu Xia will leave."
The maid bowed to the three of them one by one, and at this moment Wen Ning spoke, "Wait a minute, I'm here for a sudden visit and haven't met the master yet. Madam, I wonder if I could trouble Sister Qiu Xia to take us there now."
After Qiu Xia saluted, she suddenly looked up at Wen Ning, who was smiling lightly. Seeing her sincerity, she turned her eyes to Zhang San and Li Manjue.
Although he didn't know why Wen Ning said this, Zhang San still subconsciously said, "Ah, yes, yes."
"Um."
After receiving the answers from the other two people, Qiu Xia's expression froze for a moment and said: "The three of you are interested. Although I don't know how you learned that there is a lady in Li's house, I will convey this to the master tomorrow and arrange for the three of you to go with her.
See you, sir. It's getting late tonight, so you three can rest."
"It's only the right time now."
Wen Ning looked at the sky and said something.
"The Li Mansion stipulates that no one, male or female, old or young, can leave the house without any reason. This servant must retire."
After Qiu Xia finished speaking, there was wind on her feet and she walked very fast, as if there was a beast chasing her behind her.
Zhang San pointed at Qiu Xia with a corner of his mouth. Just when he was about to complain to Li Manjue, he saw the other party spread his hands to deal with it and then entered the room.
He glanced at Wen Ning's direction again and found that she had already entered the room, so he swallowed his words silently, pushed away San Luling on Wen Ning's right and walked in.
The wing room is either big or small. The first thing you can see when entering is a round table. Looking to the right is the bedroom.
The layout of the three rooms was similar. When Wen Ning walked into the bedroom, she saw a scene that made her heartbroken. The bed was placed opposite the mirror.
The ancients said: A bronze mirror cannot face the bed.
Wen Ning, who was deeply taught by the ancients, thoughtfully modified this layout. He adjusted the position of the table where the bronze mirror was placed and at the same time turned the bronze mirror over to face the half-open window.
After a quick operation, Wen Ning rubbed her shoulders and fell on the bed with peace of mind. Before going to bed, she even pointed the toes of her shoes outward toward the table.
At midnight, white arms stretched out from the mirror and grabbed the window edge, and a man wearing a cheongsam climbed out of the mirror.
She turned her head, her red eyes showing confusion.
According to the previous plot, she should be by the bedside as soon as she comes out, but who can tell her why she is outside the house now!
The female spy angrily climbed into the room through the window, and was about to climb into bed, but found that the people in this room were very cautious about sleeping.
The shoes were not flying around, and the toes of the shoes were not facing the bed.
Looking at the sweet sleeping human being in front of her, tears of dissatisfaction flowed from the corner of the woman's mouth.
But she could see that she couldn't eat it, which made the female spy very angry.
At this moment, Wen Ning, who was sleeping on the bed, was tickled by the female ghost's scattered hair and turned over, giving the female ghost a slap.
The female spy was stunned. She glared at Wen Ning angrily, her hair flying with anger.
She must give the humans in front of her a good look!
Wen Ning woke up because her head was congested and uncomfortable. When she opened her eyes and saw all the upside-down furniture, she thought she had triggered another copy.
It wasn't until she was tied up by the female ghost that she realized that she had been thrown down just now.
Seeing her like this, the female spy gradually smiled wildly and said the line that has long been used to intimidate players: "Jie, Jie, Jie, even if you scream, no one will come to save you."
