During the day, Shen Beizhu only ordered people to hang red silk in the mansion. He had not taken a closer look inside the mansion and did not know where the bedrooms were.
Picking up Yan Yu, he went to the backyard, found the nearest bedroom and put her on the bed, and then went back to move Qing Yu.
Yan Yan was not sleeping well. As soon as Shen Beizhu put her on the bed and covered her with the brocade quilt, she turned over and only she and the pillow mat were left on the bed.
The brocade quilt has fallen to the ground.
Xiao Baizhu struggled to hold the brocade quilt, "I'm here, you'd better take Priest Qingyu back to the room first, the wind is blowing outside."
If you get a stroke, if you have a crooked mouth or slanted eyes, you will lose more than you gain.
Shen Beizhu thought for a while and felt that this was the truth, so he prepared to go back to the dining hall first.
As soon as he walked out of the wing, he heard some noises behind him.
It sounded like the sound of something moving on the ground, the sound of knocking on wood, and the sound of "crunching".
Shen Beizhu turned his head and looked back. There was only Yan Yu's yard behind him, but the sound did not come from this yard.
He walked around Yan Yan's courtyard. There were several side courtyards behind it, but Yan Yan lived in the main courtyard, which was much larger than the courtyards at the back, and blocked the courtyards at the back.
When he looked into the back yards, the sound was gone again.
"Have you heard hallucinations?"
Shen Beizhu shook his head, feeling that he was still drunk.
Qingyu was much heavier than Yan Yan, he didn't drink much, he slept very hard, and his body was like a huge stone.
It took a lot of effort for Shen Beizhu to send Qingyu back to the house.
What's more worry-free than Yanji is that Qingyu sleeps very honestly, motionless and doesn't snore.
Shen Beizhu originally wanted to spend the night in the same courtyard with Qingyu, but as soon as he lay down in the side room, he heard the strange sound again.
When he listened carefully, the sound was gone again.
He got up and took a sip of herbal tea to calm down the alcohol. He thought he wouldn't be able to sleep after drinking the tea, but as he lay on the couch, he became confused.
Shen Beizhu pulled up the brocade quilt, turned over and continued to sleep.
"Crunch, crunch -"
In confusion, Shen Beizhu opened his eyes and closed them again.
The strange sound should have come from the bed when he turned over.
Just when he suddenly fell asleep, his body suddenly felt cold and chilly.
——He clearly didn’t turn over just now.
Shen Beizhu was half asleep, turned around, wrapped himself in a brocade quilt into a silkworm chrysalis, and covered his head with it.
It was not cold as summer was about to begin, and he was still wrapped in a brocade quilt. He should have been sweating early in the morning, but he still felt cold.
It was as if the cold in an ice cellar was creeping up on me.
Even without the brocade quilt, he is warmer than with him covered.
As soon as he had this idea, Shen Beizhu couldn't help but peel off the brocade quilt from his body.
Surprisingly, it was much warmer outside than inside the brocade quilt, and Shen Beizhu immediately felt comfortable.
At the same time, he also felt a strange gaze staring at him.
After looking around the side room, there was nothing else except tables, chairs and scrolls. Shen Beizhu breathed a sigh of relief.
But before he could breathe out, Shen Beizhu casually glanced at the beams and his breathing suddenly stopped.
A thing with limbs as thin as a spider hangs from the beam. There is no hair on the smooth head, not even eyebrows. There are only a pair of slender, crooked smiling eyes that occupy the entire face. The eyes are empty and have no whites.
Between the two corners of the eyes is an abnormally high bridge of the nose. There is no mouth under the bridge of the nose, and there is a terrifyingly pointed chin.
Shen Beizhu's Adam's apple slid up and down, and he slowly stood up to find Qingyu, quietly for fear of disturbing something in the rafters.
There is one step left from the door.
His hand is already on the door handle, just pull it gently——
Shen Beizhu looked at his hands in shock.
After putting his hands on the door, he couldn't feel the existence of his hands. Looking at the hands on the door was like looking at someone else's hands.
Then his legs, mouth, and finally he couldn't even blink, only his eyes could move.
At the same time, he felt something fall from the beam behind him, but did not hear the sound of it falling to the ground.
"Crunch——"
The sound of movement was getting closer and closer behind him.
Until a strand of hair fell on his face, his eyes flashed, and he subconsciously turned his eyes to look up.
The head that looked like a giant pine nut appeared above his head.
The moonlight shines in from the window, and countless transparent threads reflect the dazzling light.
The threads were not only wrapped around that thing, but also wrapped around his whole body.
A thread was tightened, and the head on top of Shen Beizhu's head was raised, and on the neck blocked by his chin was a bloody mouth like a lamprey eel.
"ah--"
With a "pop" sound, Yan Yan slapped Shen Beizhu on the face.
There was a very obvious red palm print on Shen Beizhu's face, and he stared blankly at Yan Yu in front of him, with fear in his eyes.
He was lying in the yard at this time, not sleeping in the side room at all. Yan Yan woke him up and felt that he was covered in cold sweat.
"You moved us back into the house, but you slept in the yard." Yan Yan handed him a handkerchief and asked him, "Did you have a nightmare?"
Shen Beizhu wiped the cold sweat from his head, "Maybe."
