Chapter 298: Chapter 299 Really Feels Like a Ghost
“If you want to know more, you can go look for Old Man Qiao. He had the best relationship with Ah Niu and Gu Lanzhi.
Besides, he goes up the mountain to chop wood every day; who knows, maybe he has seen Gu Lanzi’s ghost and heard sothing from her.
That’s all I know. Go ask him.”
The group exchanged glances, their hearts growing heavier.
This matter seed more complicated than they had thought…
Seeing that it was getting late, they didn’t go to find Old Man Qiao but returned to the Mayor’s house instead.
And they told the Mayor that they hadn’t caught the female ghost today and would try again tomorrow.
The Mayor’s face stiffened for a mont before he smiled again and invited them to share dinner. After a simple al, everyone retreated to their respective rooms.
Su Yan lay in bed that night, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Her mind was full of things about Gu Lanzhi.
For example, how had she died, and how had her husband died?
Why had all four people who found her corpse died?
And that woodcutter, Old Man Qiao, why did he say that so people are beasts in human skin, even scarier than ghosts?
What exactly did he know?
As Su Yan thought and thought, she fell asleep. Just as her eyes were blurrily closing, a white shadow drifted past the window that hadn’t been closed.
She woke up with a start, quickly put on her clothes, and chased after it, but she saw nothing.
“Strange, I’m sure there was soone,” Su Yan muttered, puzzled.
At that mont, the white shadow drifted past her again at a remarkably fast speed, flipping over the wall and running out of the house.
Without a second thought, Su Yan followed it, chasing after it for a long ti until she finally stopped in a deserted place.
Tonight, there was no moon, and under the pitch-black night, a faint mist seed to hover, adding an extra touch of mystery to the night.
Looking at the white figure standing with its back to her, Su Yan suddenly shivered.
In such an atmosphere, the figure really did seem like a ghost.
“Who are you?” Su Yan asked, trying to muster her courage.
She regretted it; she shouldn’t have run out alone. She should have inford Master Mo Chen first.
