Taoist priest Chong Xu held the peach wood stiffly, the little monk had long slipped away somewhere, even his shadow could not be seen. He was originally a bogus master, how could he chop demons and exorcise evils. He came today to deceive, who would have known that evil spirits would really be attracted. This made Taoist priest Chong Xu grieved endlessly. He held the peach wood sword, but no matter what, he did not dare to come closer. He only said, “This evil thing is too powerful, this poor Taoist….. This poor Taoist may not be able to subdue it.”“But she’s here to mislead the people with lies!” Ji Shuran couldn’t help shrieking, her palm was clammy from sweat. She was afraid, no one could find out about what had happened that year, the people who knew were dead already. It’s impossible….. Someone must have known and used this method to cause trouble to her!
The little girl’s voice suddenly transformed into the voice of a young lady. Compared to Jiang Yue’s young and tender voice, it seemed much older. She said, “Madam is so ruthless. Back then, the eldest miss was permitted to accompany the third miss to play, yet because the third miss cried, Madam immediately took her anger out on the eldest miss and fiercely kicked the eldest miss. The eldest miss knocked her head on the threshold and lost her life but Madam still wanted people to pretend that she fell from the garden’s rockery….. Siqi was in a rush to report to the Master, but was killed to keep silent!”
“Siqi…..” A servant girl standing beside Aunt Hu suddenly spoke in a daze. “This is Siqi’s voice…..”
Actually, after many years, who would remember the voices of a dead miss and a servant girl? Very few could even recognize it. But Aunt Hu and Bao Qin were the closest people to Jiang Yue and Siqi, therefore nobody doubted them when they said so.
Jiang Yuan Bai turned to look at Ji Shuran.
“No,” Ji Shuran shook her head, within a short while, tears fell down. She pulled the corner of Jiang Yuan Bai’s clothes, “Master….. It’s not me, it’s really not me. I did not do this kind of thing…..”
Jiang You Yao also cried as she spoke, “Dad, would you rather believe the false words of an evil spirit and not willing to believe mother?”
“This is not certain.” Lu-shi heard Ji Shuran was about to run out of luck and did not care of being afraid anymore. She naturally wanted to hit the person when she’s down and said, “The words of a person that’s about to die is true, moreover, it’s the person of a dead person. In this world, people’s hearts are more terrible than ghosts. On the outside looks amiable, who knows what kind of vicious heart is contained inside?”
Old madam Jiang’s expression changed greatly. For her, making the Jiang family flourish and the children grow was her responsibility. Therefore, when Jiang Li pushed Ji Shuran, caused her to miscarry and caused Ji Shuran to lose her son, it made old madam Jiang especially furious. She opened one eye and closed one eye, acquiescing to Ji Shuran’s conduct in the Jiang family. But this did not mean that she could tolerate some people to injure the Jiang family’s descendants!
Ji Shuran saw Jiang Yuan Bai and old madam Jiang’s cold gazes and her heart sank. She was extremely afraid, but she didn’t know whether she was afraid of the evil spirit coming to claim her life or afraid of facing Jiang Yuan Bai and old madam Jiang’s punishment later.
She could only shook her head with all her might and said, “No, this is nonsense from the evil spirit, it cannot be trusted. Master, for no reason whatsoever, why would this concubine harm the eldest young lady?”
At this time, Jiang Li was seen staggering two steps forward. When she walked, all the servants in the Jiang residence moved sideways to escape far away. After all, Jiang Li looked like a malicious spirit, and now that she’s occupied by a ghost, it was extremely scary. Jiang Li walked forwards, her walking posture was very strange. Black smoke came out from the sole of her feet, which made her seem as if she was not stepping on the ground.
Jiang Li walked to the locust tree in the garden, crouched down and started to dig. The things were buried shallowly and they were soon dug out by her.
“Heavens.” Aunt Hu covered her mouth, tears falling like rain. “These….. These are Yue-er’s things…..”
Jiang Yue’s things were buried deep on the ground along with her coffin following her accident. That time, to prevent Jiang Yuan Bai from recalling past events, none of Jiang Yue’s things were left in the residence. Therefore, after so many years, she was just like a stranger, no trace of her was left in the Jiang residence.
However, the rattle drum and cloth dug out by Jiang Li were things once used to play by Jiang Yue. There was even a swaddling cloth. Aunt Hu sank to her knees and sobbed quietly. She said, “Yue-er, Yue-er…..” in a mournful voice.
This strange and scary moment, only this woman did not show fear, only sorrow. Hence, the pitch-black garden was also imbued with a bit of mourning. The loud sound of her weeping made people shed tears.
No one would believe that Aunt Hu was faking it.
Ji Shuran became even more afraid when she saw the situation. She knelt down, holding the corner of Jiang Yuan Bai’s clothes and said, “Master, this evil spirit is really powerful, good at stirring up people with its lies. You see, even Taoist priest Chong Xu is subdued by her. Master….. Master, you must not believe her words. Taoist priest, what are you doing!”
Taoist priest Chong Xu moved, looking at Jiang Li, not daring to use the demon tying rope in his hands. He was complaining in his heart, what’s the matter with this Jiang family, he was supposed to be performing a drama only, why didn’t Concubine Li tell him in advance that there are real ghosts in this residence?
What should he do next?
Shortly after, Ji Shuran saw Jiang Li raise her head once again.
Her features had become more delicate and pretty, but due to the blood, it turned more sinister. She looked gloomily at Ji Shuran then abruptly laughed strangely. Her laughter stopped, then she lowered her head again.
“Yue Ru, you are so heartless!”
This sentence astonished Ji Shuran, and made the people in the garden dumbfounded.
This was clearly the voice of a man!
Jiang Yuan Bai couldn’t help walking forward to see whether the words came from Jiang Li’s mouth. But after taking two steps, he stopped, unsure whether he was afraid in his heart.
“Yue Ru…. Yue Ru, do you miss me after my death these years?” His words were gentle, causing goosebumps to raise on the people hearing. It was like the distant sound coming through the underground.
