"Is she sick?"

　　The old man who served the food shook his head.

　　"Then I don't know, I didn't ask in detail, it's probably some kind of illness... The medical conditions in the village are not good, and there's a bit of evil spirit, occasional headaches are also normal."

　　Ning heard this and asked the old man for the aunt's address.

　　After getting the information he wanted, he took the plate and went to Bai and Liu's room.

　　"Bro, how is it?"

　　Liu was shoveling rice into his mouth while looking at Ning and asking.

　　"She didn't come, she said she was unwell, but I think things are not that simple. After eating, let's go to her house and see what's going on..."

　　The two nodded.

　　After the meal, they followed the directions given by the old man and entered the village where the villagers lived.

　　To be honest, this was their first time coming to this place.

　　The scenic spots visited in the village and the guesthouse are completely different from the village.

　　The architecture of the first two is very elaborate, while the living environment of the villagers in the village is quite simple, and even has a bit of a remote and impoverished flavor.

　　Judging from the architectural environment of the scenic spots, the three originally thought that the villagers' economy was not bad, and everyone lived a relatively affluent life.

　　However, the current environment is very different from what they expected!

　　The ground is all paved with mud and gravel, and most of the houses where the villagers live are adobe houses, and some don't even have brick walls.

　　Everywhere you look, it's desolate.

　　"Damn... how can it be so dilapidated?"

　　Liu murmured softly,.

　　The three walked along the dirt road, and occasionally villagers passing by, as well as villagers busy in the yard, cast strange glances at the three.

　　It was a strange scrutiny.

　　There was a touch of unspeakable guilt in their eyes, and three points of unclear gloom.

　　But without exception, these villagers looked at them secretly when they looked at them, and no one dared to look them in the eye, let alone talk to them.

　　"These people really have ghosts in their hearts."

The author's narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

　　Ning sneered.

　　Soon, they arrived at the address of the aunt who served the food at noon yesterday.

　　When they pushed open the dilapidated fence gate and entered the courtyard, they happened to bump into a middle-aged man who had just come out of the house.

　　The middle-aged man was holding a basin of water in his hand, and there was a towel next to him.

　　After seeing the three of them, the middle-aged man's eyes changed suddenly.

　　He first showed a sudden panic, but it was quickly suppressed.

　　"Who are you, what are you doing in my house?"

　　The middle-aged man's voice was very flat, as if he was hostile towards the three of them.

　　Ning said:

　　"We're here to find Milana."

　　Milana is the name of the aunt who served the food in the canteen at noon yesterday.

　　The middle-aged man's expression was cold.

　　"You're looking for the wrong person, there's no one named Milana here."

　　After saying that, he wanted to drive everyone out.

　　Just as Ning was considering whether to force his way in, Bai suddenly spoke up:

　　"You better not stop us."

　　"To tell you the truth, it's not us who want to see Milana, but a... someone you can't afford to mess with."

　　The middle-aged man's movements froze slightly.

　　Bai walked towards him unhurriedly, whispering a name in his ear.

　　Hearing that name, the middle-aged man's face turned pale!

　　He took two steps back, and cold sweat had already seeped out of his forehead.

　　"You don't believe it?"

　　Bai smiled faintly.

　　"Do you want us to take out that thing?"

　　"It's in his arms!"

　　This faint voice, like a cold wind blowing from the depths of winter, made the middle-aged man shudder.

　　He hurriedly shook his head.

　　"No... no need to do that."

　　"Milana is my wife, she's not feeling well today, so I don't really want her to see outsiders."

　　Bai smiled gently:

　　"Don't worry, there's a grievance and a debtor, we're not here to seek revenge on her, we just have some things to confirm with her, and we'll leave after asking."

　　The middle-aged man immediately poured out the water in the basin and placed the basin on a stone platform, then led everyone into the room.

　　The room looked even more dilapidated than the outside, as if it hadn't been cleaned for a long time.

　　Many pieces of furniture showed signs of heavy years, giving the impression that the house was built decades ago, and there has been no update since then.

　　And a short and stout middle-aged woman was lying on the bed, wrapped in a quilt, her lips pale.

　　Her eyes were closed, as if she was asleep.

　　Bai stepped forward and reached out to touch the middle-aged woman's forehead.

　　She had a fever.

　　And it was a high fever, probably over 39 degrees.

　　It seemed that the movement of the three people was a bit loud, which woke Milana up.

　　As soon as she opened her eyes, she exclaimed:

　　"You... when did you come to my house?!"

　　Ning gestured to Liu to close the door.

　　With a creak, the door was closed, and the room suddenly darkened.

　　Click!

　　He turned on the light.

　　The dim light shone on the people in the room, adding a bit of strangeness to their figures.

　　"I have a question to ask you, and we'll leave after asking."

　　As if she still remembered Ning's face, Milana's expression softened a little, not as panicked as before.

　　However, as Ning asked the next sentence, Milana's body, which was hidden in the quilt, suddenly tensed up!

　　"Why clean up a haunted house for us outsiders to live in?"

　　Milana stammered, her face pale:

　　"What, what haunted house?"

　　"I don't know what you..."

　　Ning looked into Milana's eyes and suddenly showed a smile:

　　"The building you temporarily cleaned up, it should be the site of the Misty Rain Temple, right?"

　　After hearing this, Milana trembled violently.

　　The middle-aged man next to him saw that something was wrong, and just as he was about to step forward to stop him, he saw Ning suddenly take out something from his arms and put it in front of him.

　　After seeing this thing, the middle-aged man let out a scream, covered his head and knelt on the ground, shivering!

　　He seemed to be possessed, muttering non-stop:

　　"It's none of our business... we didn't do it... don't come to us..."

　　At this moment, what Ning was holding in his hand was Guang's tablet!
