At this moment, he finally saw clearly the words on the plaque hanging on the house.
"Washington Palace" is right here, Li Tian secretly thought.
There are two majestic huge stone lions placed at the door of the house, and two red pillars stand in front of the door behind them, supporting the entire door eaves.
This is also an old house, with a completely black structure and a white seal on the door. It is obvious that no ordinary people are allowed to set foot in this place at this time.
There is a tall tree in front of the wall next to the gate. A small part of its branches and leaves have grown into the courtyard wall. The green leaves are lush and stand quietly in the corner where light cannot reach.
As he got closer, the strange crying sound disappeared without a trace, as if the sound he just heard was just an auditory hallucination.
The sky overhead suddenly flickered for a moment, followed by a crisp thunder, and the bright moon in the sky was completely obscured by dark clouds in just this short period of time.
There was another flash of lightning, and the sky lit up again for a moment.
A strong wind blew from nowhere, making him almost unsteady. The branches of the big tree in front of the courtyard wall were blown left and right, making constant friction sounds.
Li Tian looked blankly at the strange mansion in front of him and murmured, "It can't be so evil..."
He thought it was the lightning, thunder and strong wind caused by Washington, and his heart couldn't stop trembling at this moment. This thing seemed a bit scary...
He grabbed his coat and walked towards the wall beside the mansion.
"Just take a look, just take a look!" He encouraged himself as he walked. He didn't dare to go in directly from the front door, and thought of climbing up the wall to see what was going on inside first.
Not long after, he came to the big tree. The courtyard wall was nearly three meters high. He would definitely not be able to climb it by himself. He had to use the big tree for help.
The branches on the tree were lush and it didn't take much trouble to climb. He grabbed a branch that was about the same thickness as his arm and quickly climbed up the tree.
Climbing all the way up, he found a relatively thick branch in the direction of the courtyard wall. He carefully leaned towards it.
The moonlight has been obscured by dark clouds, and now I can only rely on the faint light of the street lamp in the distance to vaguely distinguish things.
He grabbed the branch in his hand to stabilize his body, and then jumped right onto the courtyard wall in one step.
Then he pushed aside the leaves blocking his view and looked into the yard.
If the full moonlight was still there at this time, it would definitely be possible to see the entire courtyard clearly. However, the weather was not kind and all that could be seen was pitch black.
Li Tian moved his eyes, and could only use the corner of his eyes to vaguely discern the situation inside. He did not dare to make too much noise, for fear that the practitioner inside would find him, if that person was there.
After looking at it for a long time, he couldn't see anything clearly. He could only distinguish objects with large color differences. The wind made his eyes a little dry.
He blinked his eyes from time to time and moistened his eyes. At this moment, the strange cry sounded again. This time, because he was close, he heard it clearly.
The weird atmosphere came again, and his heart was in his throat

, he squatted there cautiously, not daring to move at all, and turned his ears to carefully search for the source of the crying, but the wind was not quiet at this time, and he could only hear a general direction.
He originally thought which room the crying would come from, but the fact turned out to be completely different from what he thought. The crying was coming from the yard!
Although he didn't listen very carefully, he was already sure. He slowly turned his head and looked in that direction. That was the center of the courtyard. In theory, there should be stone tables and benches there for worship.
The host sits and rests during leisure time.
He held his breath unconsciously and opened his eyes wide to see what was there. Is it a human? Or a ghost?
"Huh?" Li Tian was confused. For a moment, he seemed to see a white shadow shaking there, but because it was too dark, he didn't know if it was his own illusion, and the cry was faintly visible at the moment.
He glanced at the dark sky complainingly. It was bright when it shouldn't be bright, and there was no movement at all when it was supposed to be bright. He complained in his heart that the lightning didn't come on time.
As if God heard his complaints, the next moment, a bolt of thunder flashed across the sky, directly illuminating the entire yard as bright as day.
Li Tian took advantage of the light and hurriedly looked towards the courtyard, but what he didn't expect to see was a scene he would never forget. The hairs on his body stood up in an instant, and his face was filled with blood. It was obvious that he had no trace of anything.
Prepare to be shocked.
He saw a woman in white plain clothes with long hair sitting on a stone bench in the yard. Her thick black hair covered her entire face. Isn't this the female ghost in white?
He was so frightened that he couldn't help but exclaimed "I am Cao". Then he realized something was wrong and quickly covered his mouth with his hands, his heart beating faster.
The light of lightning disappeared in an instant, and the yard returned to darkness again. Li Tian didn't know if his scream just now was heard, but he was so frightened and frightened at this moment that he almost peed twice.
The white figure did not move. Although he could not see his fingers now, if there was any movement from such an obvious target, he would definitely be able to feel it.
God obviously wanted to make up for the lightning that was owed to Li Tian before. Immediately after the previous one, the next one came again in an instant.
Li Tian stared at the position just now, not daring to move his eyes away for fear of missing something. He was prepared this time and would not lose his composure like before.
The yard lit up again, and the female ghost was still sitting in the same position without moving, which made him slowly breathe a sigh of relief.
It's good that he wasn't discovered, Li Tianzheng thought, but suddenly he noticed something was wrong.
The head of the female ghost seemed to be facing the main gate just now, but now...
Because her hair covered her entire face, Li Tian didn't notice anything wrong at the first time.
A creepy feeling spread all over his body instantly, and he knew he was being watched.
Without even thinking about it, he subconsciously wanted to jump off the courtyard wall and run away. How could he care about Wan Xiaoqing now? His own life was the most important thing!
But the female ghost seemed to know his intention, and her movements were faster than his. She raised her hand in the direction of Li Tian, and something escaped her.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Her hand quickly shot toward Li Tian.
Li Tianzheng turned around and felt something hit his right foot. His body became unstable and he fell directly towards the yard.
"It's over, it's over." Li Tian was extremely frightened at this time, and started to grab around randomly with both hands, but it was of no use, he just grabbed a handful of leaves.
With a pop, the whole person fell to the ground.
He leaned against the wall behind him in panic. At this time, he could no longer care about the pain in his body, because he didn't know what he was about to face. He still clearly remembered the whole story of Washington D.C. that the rickshaw man told him.
The tragic situation.
The sound of footsteps faintly reached his ears amid the sound of the wind. The clearer the footsteps in front of him became, the more panicked he stepped back.
The compass under his butt was like his only life-saving straw at the moment. He quickly took it out while retreating. He wanted to escape into the void world. This was his only way to solve the predicament at hand.
The sound of footsteps was very close in the blink of an eye. He turned the compass in a panic. As a result, he became nervous and turned an extra circle, but the compass showed no response at all...
"Okay, I'd better die..." Such a mistake could still happen when he was racing against time. He just felt that he was destined to die.
He didn't give up and planned to spin it again. At this time, he couldn't wait to pull the man who made the compass over and flick the penis a hundred times. Why did he have to set it to manual if it could be controlled with thoughts?
The footsteps in front of him stopped, and the female ghost in white did not directly kill him as expected, but stood in front of him.
The female ghost in white, ah no, it must be the woman in white. Her lips were slightly opened, and a moving voice directly reached Li Tian's ears, causing him to stop turning the compass in his hand for a moment.
"Who are you?" The pleasant voice was accompanied by some questions. It sounded like she might be twenty years old, not much older than him.
It turned out to be a human being. Li Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Why did he do this in the middle of the night? He was scared to death!
He secretly put the compass back under his buttocks and replied softly, "I am a student of Lingtian Academy, and I am here to save my classmates."
He didn't dare to speak too loudly, and his tone was as gentle as possible, just in case he didn't say anything right and the other party would suddenly attack him.
Although he is not a ghost, this person is probably the murderer of all the people in Washington. Otherwise, he would not stay here in the middle of the night and cry while pretending to be a ghost.
Li Tian did not dare to let down his guard at all. He was still lying on the ground and did not dare to get up, for fear that the opposite party would suddenly give him a fatal blow.
"Oh, are they with the two little girls this afternoon?" The questioning voice came again. The two little girls mentioned by the woman in white were most likely Wan Xiaoqing and the others.
Li Tian couldn't help but his eyes lit up. He finally heard the news about Wan Xiaoqing. He quickly replied, "Yes, yes, how are they now?"
The woman in white did not answer immediately after hearing his question. Instead, she pondered for a moment before slowly continuing, "Let me think about it..." and then with a hint of smile in her tone, "It seems like she was killed by me."
