Of the four immortals, three are highly intelligent, and the only one who only has instincts is the Immortal Origin True Spirit of Destiny. Because of the rules of Destiny, she is also very good at playing chess. These days, she has lost more than she won when playing chess with two immortals, and now there are two more.
I'm having a headache.
"Help me prepare something to eat."
Zhao Mu sat in front of four chessboards and quickly made moves.
Playing chess with four immortals, he still had the upper hand. Gu Yu, who was not good at playing chess, quickly lost the first game.
At the moment of losing the chess game, Gu Yu's body moved forward uncontrollably.
After walking sixty-two blocks, Gu Yu was randomly sucked into the vortex emerging from the building door on the left side of the street.
Seeing this scene, the Immortal Insect Mother shuddered all over.
The world was spinning, and Gu Yu had been thrown outside an ancient house. The entire ancient house looked like it had been abandoned for countless years. There were cracks and scratches everywhere on the walls. Gu Yu, who got up from the ground, felt her weakness.
The body walked away from the ancient house.
He already knew that he had arrived at a ghost realm of some strange spirit.
Fortunately, this ghost realm has lost the control of the alien spirits. Without the control of the alien spirits, the ghost realm will be very rigid and will only operate on its own according to its unique twisted rules. Even though he has lost all his power now, as long as he finds the core of the ghost realm,
You can also escape.
Gu Yu didn't run, he just walked slowly.
As they walked, Gu Yu looked at the ancient house that appeared in front of her, shaking her head and smiling bitterly.
A limited ghost realm, a ghost realm where you cannot leave a specific location.
He could see the mountains and rivers near the ancient house, but in fact they did not exist. He just walked back to the ancient house after his eyes were covered by the ghost realm. Now he observed the ancient house carefully along the outer wall of the ancient house.
Observe every plant, tree or even stone around the old house.
For things like foreign spirits, their ghost realms all follow a specific core formation.
At first glance, this ancient house is a human intelligent building. The alien spirit that formed this ghost realm must have been a human being during his lifetime, and it is very likely that the ghost realm was created due to obsession, which is usually related to the cause of death or the murder weapon before death.
.
If it was a murder weapon, someone must have killed someone.
If the deceased's obsession is connected to the Black Sea Ghost Realm and turns into a supernatural spirit, then the murder weapon may be outside the ancient house.
If he doesn't search carefully, he may not have a chance to come out again after entering the old house.
If he missed the core of the ghost realm, he would have no choice but to wait for death in the ancient house.
After searching for most of the day, it suddenly turned dark.
The outside of the ancient house suddenly fell into boundless darkness. Feeling the terror in the darkness, Gu Yu almost desperately fled to the ancient house. The moment he passed through the gate of the ancient house, the dilapidated and decayed old house took on a new look as if time had flowed backwards.
Gu Yu turned around and looked outside the door. The two black lanterns on the door were emitting red light.
When he turned around again, his body was no longer under control.
Suddenly a middle-aged man appeared in front of him and smiled kindly at him.
"Gu Yu, you came at the right time."
The middle-aged man whispered, "If there is a problem with the business over at Longhe, I will handle it. In addition to the young lady, I am the housekeeper in charge of the entire Li Mansion. Otherwise, I won't be able to let you move in rashly. I estimate that it will take more than a month."
Come back and study hard these days to prepare for the exam."
"Will others find out and implicate my uncle?"
Gu Yu whispered uncontrollably.
"It's okay, just don't leave the east yard."
The middle-aged housekeeper smiled nonchalantly.
Gu Yu watched as she followed the middle-aged housekeeper talking and laughing to a secluded courtyard to the east of the Li Mansion. She listened to the middle-aged housekeeper talking non-stop. There was something strange about this courtyard. Mr. Li of the Li Mansion closed it after his wife died.
He moved all the surrounding servants away from the courtyard.
Everyone said this place was haunted, and Gu Yu was so frightened when she heard that it looked pale.
The middle-aged housekeeper said that this was just a rumor. Scholars have great righteousness. As long as they recite articles loudly, they will not be afraid of ghosts and gods. Gu Yu is still a little scared, but she is short of money and has nowhere to go, so she can only live in this courtyard that is rumored to be haunted.
.
The middle-aged housekeeper stayed for a while and left. After a while, he brought some food and left again.
Only then did Gu Yu regain control of her body.
He tried to leave the yard, but as soon as he opened the door, the dilapidated house that day was immediately outside. After closing the door and looking out through the crack in the door, the outside looked completely new again. Gu Yu immediately understood that he was restricted to this yard.
Carefully recalling the middle-aged housekeeper's words and deeds, Gu Yu found something strange.
He seemed to have been reminding himself to recite the article loudly, and it was strange to arrange him here. He was the nephew of the housekeeper. Although he didn't know what the housekeeper's position was, but he listened to his words in the Li Mansion.
That is, only under Mr. Li and Miss Li.
For such a third-ranked housekeeper, does he need to be sneaky to take in a relative?
Puzzled, Gu Yu began to search the entire yard.
Finally, he set his sights on the only well.
In the house where he lived, the window opened and there was a well. There was no drop of water in the well and there was a ladder ready.
Just as she was about to go down the ladder to take a look, Gu Yu suddenly lost control of her body and walked back to the only bedroom that had been cleaned up by the middle-aged housekeeper in advance. She sat in front of the window and lit a candle and started reading.
In the past few days, every time Gu Yu wanted to look into the well, she would turn around and run away to study.
He was even more convinced that there was a secret in the well.
Until this day, Gu Yu continued to read as usual. As she read, she was startled uncontrollably. It turned out that a young girl crawled out of the well outside the window. Her eyes were clear and her face was beautiful. Gu Yu's heart was beating fast after just one glance.
stand up.
Although her body was completely looking at the girl, Gu Yu's consciousness was observing everything through her eyes.
People can see a lot, but they only pay attention to the target they are focused on.
Gu Yu, however, mainly observed the edges of the picture that normal people would see but would not pay attention to. Therefore, he clearly saw an eye at the crack of the courtyard door staring at him and the girl at this moment. He recognized the owner of this eye to be a middle-aged man.
Butler Li Fulu.
Gu Yu walked out uncontrollably, walked towards the girl and started talking to her.
After chatting, we found out that the girl was actually the young lady of the Li Mansion. She had only been in contact with servants in the boudoir since she was a child, and the only ones she was close to were the two maids. She didn’t know why her father had not allowed her to step into the house since she was a child.
Take a step out of Li Mansion.
It seems that a fortune teller told her that she must not leave home before she is eighteen years old.
The well in the abandoned garden was originally connected by a tunnel to a well in the back house of Li Mansion.
If you speak loudly here, you will hear a very faint sound of reading at the wellhead on the other side.
Miss Li overheard the sound of reading in the well. Out of curiosity, Miss Li secretly found a ladder and climbed down the well mouth, walked through the tunnel to this side, and climbed along the holes dug in the well wall one by one.
Come up.
Miss Li was very happy to meet Gu Yu.
He comes almost every night, Gu Yu is waiting every night, and every day there are people peeking through the cracks in the door.
As time passed, Gu Yu's sense of crisis became stronger and stronger.
Although he is a semi-immortal, he is still immortal after all. Even though his power is completely sealed by the ghost realm, he still has some sense of dangerous power, and his intuition tells him that the safe stage in front of the entire ghost realm is about to pass.
