Chapter 254 Portrait
Chapter 254 Portrait

Xu Zhifei is an ominous person.

Unlike most people in the world, she knew there were ghosts in this world since she was very young.

Bai Yanliang previously thought that predictive dreams was her innate ability, but later discovered that it was the ability of Xu Zhifei's key.

But Xu Zhifei... is indeed different.

Her eyes were similar to Song Que's, yet completely different.

She was born with the ability to see some strange existences.

So...she is indeed an outlier.

……

"Miss Xu?"

Although he was questioning, there was not much surprise in Bai Yanliang's voice.

But... based on Bai Yanliang's understanding of Xu Zhifei, she would never take the initiative to hold his hand.

Sure enough, after shaking hands, the hand quickly loosened.

Is this her way of saying she's there for me?
Bai Yanliang glanced at the air and said:

"If you are in a state where you cannot speak, just touch my hand."

Soon, the back of Bai Yanliang's hand touched a cold hand, but it separated immediately.

The smell of decay on her body disappeared, but she couldn't speak anymore. What happened?

Bai Yanliang was a little confused.

But he didn't hesitate for long. Instead, he came up with a good idea, an idea that would allow him to get the answer without having to enter the ancestral hall.

Xu Zhifei happens to be invisible. Wouldn't it be convenient and quick to let her go into the ancestral hall and take a look?
But... I don’t know if the ghost can see Xu Zhifei’s existence. If it can see Xu Zhifei in invisible state, then she will be in danger.

So, Bai Yanliang explained his ideas to Xu Zhifei.

The response I got was a gentle touch on the back of my hand.

She agreed.

Although she didn't say anything, Bai Yanliang somehow understood what she meant.

After thinking about it, Bai Yanliang once again confirmed that under the current circumstances, it would be safest for Xu Zhifei to enter the ancestral hall to confirm the information.

He did not have the idea of ​​taking extra care of Xu Zhifei because she was a woman. If he was the invisible one now, he would also take the initiative to enter the ancestral hall.

This has nothing to do with gender, it’s just the best choice.

Then, under Bai Yanliang's gaze, the door of the ancestral hall was pushed open a little, and Xu Zhifei went in.

Waiting is a very boring thing, especially when you have to worry about the other person all the time while waiting for her.

Two minutes later, Xu Zhifei still hadn't come out, but another person appeared.

Yu Wenxuan.

He rushed to the entrance of the ancestral hall in the heavy rain, brushed off the water droplets on his body, and greeted Bai Yanliang.

"You are not a ghost, are you, Mr. Bai?"

He still has the mind to make jokes, it seems that he is in a good mental state.

But...what about Jiang Li?

Bai Yanliang glanced into the depths of the rain and asked, "Did you see any other traces on the way here?"

Yu Wenxuan shook his head: "It rained so hard that all traces were wiped out, but... there was a strange house on the way here. It looked like no one lived in it, but the door had signs of being opened."

"Jiang Li might be hiding inside."

"I hope so..." Bai Yanliang didn't say much, but looked at Yu Wenxuan, "What are you doing here?"

Yu Wenxuan glanced at Bai Yanliang and said, "Of course, we are looking for clues. It is said that there must be poisonous beasts accompanying natural treasures to protect them. From another perspective, where there are evil spirits, there must be key clues hidden, right?"

"you?"

"Of course I will. How about I recommend one or two books to you?"

"Forget it..." Bai Yanliang stopped the topic in time.

Although Yu Wenxuan's idea of ​​coming to the ancestral hall was a bit strange, it must be said that he was right.

The key clue is indeed hidden inside the ancestral hall.

Suddenly, Bai Yanliang felt a chill on the back of his hand.

Xu Zhifei is back.

"Did you see it? The portraits on the wall." Bai Yanliang asked immediately, "The one who looks like Village Chief Kang touched my left hand. The one who looks like... Kang Kang, touched my right hand."

Yu Wenxuan looked at the strange scene in front of him in surprise, and it took him two seconds to realize that Xu Zhifei had returned.

At this moment, Bai Yanliang felt his right hand... being touched lightly.

The right hand...is it Kang Kang after all.

And... you have been following us... Xu Zhifei.

"Mr. Yu, would you hit an old man?"

Bai Yanliang suddenly looked at Yu Wenxuan and asked a very strange question.

For the first time, Yu Wenxuan showed a conflicted look, "It depends on the situation..."

"What about... the child?"

"beat."

This time Yu Wenxuan answered without hesitation.

"That's good..." Bai Yanliang smiled, "Let's go."

……

When they met for the first time, Village Chief Kang and Kang Kang gave Bai Yanliang a very strange feeling.

After what happened in the well, he was even more certain of the weirdness of the two of them.

The relationship between these two people is definitely not that of father and son, or grandfather and grandson.

Especially Kang Kang’s identity, he is very likely... the child who fell into the well in the death scene.

On the way, Bai Yanliang explained his guess in detail.

"The problem lies with them, but 'it' should be very weak now and unable to use its strange power. This means we can bully the elderly and children to our heart's content."

"Weak? How did you come to this conclusion?" Yu Wenxuan asked.

"If he wasn't weak, would we have been able to leave so smoothly when we first went to see Village Chief Kang?" Bai Yanliang glanced ahead and saw that Village Chief Kang's house was almost there.

"I don't think the ghost will show mercy to us. It's not that it doesn't want to kill us on the spot, but it can't do it. I think... it hasn't been out of the well long enough."

Yu Wenxuan nodded, this was indeed the truth.

Bai Yanliang still had something to tell them, and that was about the key.

He has selfish motives.

This time the mission was caused by the Abyss, not the Mist. In other words, that person used the power of his key, combined with a strange village somewhere in the real world, to construct a nightmare world. Now the dream has been broken, but the village is still there, but... what that guy doesn't know is that all the weirdness of this village comes from a key.

A key... fastened to the baby's wrist.

Since it has been confirmed that it was not the Wu Ji mission, that is to say, the key was not left behind by Wei Xiu and his group, then... the appearance of the key is very suspicious.

This was the first key Bai Yanliang had seen that was not the one condensed in the fog. He wanted to get it and study it carefully. What were the similarities and differences between it and the key in the fog?
After all, its shape and aura are very similar to Wu Ji's key.

While thinking, the two of them and an invisible man came to the gate of the village chief's house.

Bai Yanliang and Yu Wenxuan exchanged glances and were about to go in.

At this moment, a faint baby cry sounded unusually abruptly and reached the ears of the three people.

Following the sound, I found that the crying sound came from the village chief's old house...
