Li Taiyuan blew out the candle, and almost at the same time, Chen Bin and others also extinguished the flashlights in their hands.

"Sand-sand-sand"

As the footsteps approached, a vague smell of blood came from the mist.

In the corridor, the four people clung to the wall behind them, their bodies seemed to be frozen.

Although they didn't know what was deep in the fog, everyone could clearly hear intermittent movements coming from the ground in the corridor.

The footsteps were like the sticky friction of some kind of mollusk crawling, and it was dragging an extremely heavy object.

"Coming!"

The movement in his ears became clearer and clearer. Wei Yixi's body trembled suddenly, and a large area of ​​his back was already wet.

A gust of cold wind blew by, mixed with the smell of blood and a faint stench in the air, which made her shiver.

Under the moonlight, a huge black shadow appeared from the south corridor and walked straight into the courtyard. Through the thick fog, everyone finally saw clearly that it was a strange female figure.

With her hair disheveled, she walked slowly along the cobblestone path like a wandering spirit.

Li Taiyuan tiptoed behind the pillar to hide his figure.

He peeked into the courtyard secretly and saw that the woman was wearing a loose red robe. Under the robe, the parts of the woman's legs that should have been piled together as if they had no bones, like a huge snake's tail.

The woman walked very slowly, holding a huge lacquered red wooden box in her right hand.

The box was not completely covered, and at this moment everyone saw a hand hanging limply on the side of the box, bleeding out.

What was contained in that box seemed to be a corpse.

The woman in red has a stooped figure, with long black hair hanging down like a waterfall, exposing half of her shoulders.

Her face was obscured by long hair, and she would breathe heavily with every step she took.

Just when Li Taiyuan wanted to take a closer look at the corpse, he seemed to sense something, and the woman suddenly stopped.

Accompanied by a strange syllable, the woman's head quickly turned to where Li Taiyuan and others were.

Li Taiyuan was so blessed that he quickly retracted his body and hid behind the pillar; Chen Bin and the other three also lay on the ground almost at the same time, using the wall beside the corridor to block their bodies.

Although there was no visual collision, everyone could feel that the woman's malicious eyes were slowly scanning the surroundings.

As a senior backbone, Chen Bin has come into contact with many evil ghosts in the past. But the sense of oppression brought about by this woman's appearance just now was an unprecedented and dangerous aura as dark and terrifying as an abyss.

The extreme chill was like melting ice cubes, gradually spreading throughout everyone's body.

The scalp-numbing shuddering feeling lasted for about two to three minutes.

Fortunately, the woman did not notice the people hiding in the corridor. After stopping for a while, the footsteps sounded again.

Soon, the woman's figure disappeared into the thick fog.

Wei Yixi bravely stood up and looked at the direction the woman was heading, which seemed to be the east.

Several people quickly came to the courtyard and found that the corridor where the woman in red had just passed had left a large black blood stain on the floor. At this time, there was a pool of blood dripping along the steps and slowly dripping on the stairs.

"Isn't that the woman in red just now your wife?"

Li Yonghao saw Li Taiyuan squatting on the ground, thinking deeply about the blood stains, and couldn't help but joke: "Is it possible that she saw you not staying in the house at night, so she got angry and killed someone to vent her anger?"

"No, my wife is not that fierce." Li Taiyuan slowly stood up.

Although he didn't see the woman's face clearly just now, his intuition told him that the woman was not Bai Ruoyan.

"How long has it been and you still want to joke? You all cheer up!" Wei Yixi glared at the two of them fiercely.

Like her, Chen Bin's expression also looked particularly heavy.

Now the information they have is limited, and the White House is full of fog, with unknown murderous intentions hidden everywhere. If they encounter that terrifying woman again, will they be able to escape like they did just now?

"The woman in red is going to the east, and the kitchen is also in the east courtyard. Since we are going to spend the night there, we must be careful next time." Chen Bin said, turned on the flashlight again, and walked alone in the end.

Front.

Wei Yixi followed closely behind, and Li Yonghao followed suit with a smile on his face.

Li Taiyuan walked at the end of the team. Out of habit, he subconsciously used a flashlight to shine around.

While passing a circular arch, he accidentally saw a small foreign object appearing in the gap between the blood-stained white sand and cobblestones after the corpse was dragged around the corner.

He quickly stepped forward to pick it up and found that it was a small piece of blood-stained carved wooden fragment.

Li Taiyuan only felt that this thing looked very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Li Yonghao turned around and saw that he was lagging behind, so he couldn't help but urge him.

"Coming."

Li Taiyuan was too lazy to explain, so he simply stuffed the piece of wood carving into his pocket and followed quickly.

It was late at night in the huge White House, and it was so quiet that no movement could be heard.

The empty courtyard echoed with the footsteps of Chen Bin and others. They followed the bloodstains to the east courtyard and found that the drag marks extended all the way to the edge of the pond. The large bloodstains extended neatly and regularly to the path, almost forming a straight line.

The blood stain pointed in the direction of the huge mulberry tree in the corner of the pavilion on the east side.

"It is said that the mulberry tree, the pear tree, and the pear tree cannot enter the Yin and Yang Mansion. I don't know the origin of that tree. Anyway, when I first entered the White House, I felt that it was quite evil."

Wei Yixi rubbed her arms and couldn't help but speak. As soon as she arrived in the yard, she felt that her whole body was wrapped in a cold air, and she got goosebumps from the cold.

"Brother Bin, should we go there and have a look?" Li Yonghao subconsciously asked Chen Bin.

The latter thought for a moment and shook his head.

Recalling the story Li Taiyuan told about Sanniangzi, he was wary and did not choose to get close.

After all, this is just the first night in the White Mansion. It would be better not to act rashly until the information about the female ghost in red is clear.

Li Taiyuan also agreed with his idea.

The woman in red was by no means an ordinary ghost. Although she had only met her face to face, the strange aura emanating from her body could not be compared to the evil spirit in gray robe that she had encountered before in Yuhe Village.

The kitchen is on the other side of the courtyard, and you need to continue moving forward along the pond. The four people did not stop and speeded up to leave the courtyard.

The cold wind blew by, making the leaves of the mulberry trees rustle. Whether it was an illusion or not, everyone felt that the smell of blood in the air became more obvious.

When passing by the pond, Wei Yixi noticed that there was a circle of shallow ripples in the center of the lake.

Wei Yixi walked onto the bridge and glanced at the lake below. After the wind stopped, the water gradually became calmer. After not seeing anything strange, she breathed a sigh of relief, pushed the broken hair on her forehead behind her ears, and unconsciously sped up.

steps.

The figures of four people holding flashlights passed quickly across the bridge and were reflected in the middle of the lake.

However, just after they left, a string of bubbles suddenly appeared in the middle of the lake.

There was a strong wind in the yard, and many mulberry leaves were blown down and floated to the lake. The moment the leaves came into contact with the water, a large pool of bright red blood mysteriously appeared.
