They then saw Gu Wuji quickly rushing in front of the white shadowed female ghost.
This female ghost could only be vaguely seen as a female figure wearing a skirt, and her face was completely pale, with only two dark holes hanging on its face, which looked very strange.
Gu Wuji looked at the other person with steady eyes and spoke softly, “Although I know you may be sad and angry, I still ask you to calm down. Doing such a thing must be very burdensome for you. I believe you are not such a person, and more importantly, such behavior is illegal…”
Everyone was stunned for a while, they never thought that Gu Wuji would be rushing up to try to persuade the female ghost! How could this be done!
Only Ning Yang was moved when he saw it, feeling that this was indeed the one he liked, so kind and beautiful.
After listening to Gu Wuji’s words, the female ghost was obviously irritated by him. So, she stretched out her clawed hands to kill him.
Gu Wuji looked at the female ghost in surprise and stretched out his hand to hold the other person’s hand. He held his hand and said happily, “It seems that you are also a peace-loving person.”
Speaking of why these ghosts liked shaking hands with people so much, this was also what made Gu Wuji very confused even after entering these dungeons for so long.
Even if everyone couldn’t see the female ghost’s face, they could feel that there was anger suppressed in her body. She almost wanted to strangle the ungrateful living person in front of her to death.
Xia Xi, who was looking at the scene below, looked very appreciative, “It’s quite interesting, where did this person come from. It would be a pity if he died like this…” He narrowed his eyes slightly and said something softly.
The female ghost’s face changed. She seemed to be hesitating at first, but she suddenly realized the strength of Gu Wuji’s grip on her hand. Was this still a human being?
If this continued, it may not be her wanting to let the other party go, but the other party having to let her go…
At this moment, the female ghost was frightened, and suddenly threw away Gu Wuji’s hand, and her body immediately moved and dissipated in the air.
Gu Wuji: “?”
Everyone had fallen into silence. From their perspective, Gu Wuji said a few words, and the female ghost actually disappeared! How on earth was this done? Was this female ghost so reasonable?
Gu Wuji frowned. Without this female ghost, he would not be able to find the so-called prop at all. It seemed that now he could only think about where the female ghost could have gone.
He immediately came down and said to the housekeeper, “I have something to ask you…”
Before, the housekeeper and the others thought that Gu Wuji was just Xia Yangshuo’s female companion, but now they felt that she was really capable. This matter indeed seemed inappropriate to talk about next to Mr. Xia. The housekeeper nodded immediately and was about to walk to the other side with Gu Wuji.
“If you have anything to do, just ask me.” Mr. Xia over there was silent for a moment and then said, “I know her affairs better than anyone else.”
Several people around him looked surprised, before this in this home, they were absolutely not allowed to mention the lady’s affairs. After all, considering what happened back then and the fact that the lady’s ghost may still be lingering in this house, it was normal to have such a taboo.
But the old man actually took the initiative to speak at this time, which they couldn’t believe.
If it was someone from the Xia family, he would definitely be a little wary of speaking, but it didn’t matter to Gu Wuji since he didn’t care. Since the other party said that, he went directly to ask, “I want to ask which room did the lady’s accident happen in. Only after I know the detailed location can I solve this matter.”
Mr. Xia said with pain in his eyes, “Take this master with you.” Then he looked at Gu Wuji, “Please be sure not to hurt her… It’s best to bring her to me.”
This request could be said to be cunning. Let people solve the haunted matter without hurting the ghost. Who could do it!
Gu Wuji nodded lightly, and as the housekeeper walked upstairs, Ning Yang followed behind him without caring about his appearance.
Others down below were still very worried. At this time, the people who had been rescued by Gu Wuji in the bar immediately began to praise Gu Wuji, saying that he was a master of the world. With such a powerful person, there must be no problem this time.
When Xia Xi in the crowd heard this, the smile in his eyes deepened.
….
The housekeeper was about to face the terrifying female ghost. His face was covered with cold sweat and his steps were a little sloppy. However, with Gu Wuji and Ning Yang around, he felt a lot more relieved.
“Steward, I have also heard about what happened that year.” Gu Wuji said: “But is there any misunderstanding… After all, Mr. Xia’s attitude towards the lady does not seem to be what is known -“
Halfway through his words, the housekeeper looked at the black shadow that suddenly appeared next to him, “Then, there!”
Gu Wuji suddenly pushed away the ghost who came to him as if nothing had happened and pushed it in front of Ning Yang.
Of course, Ning Yang wanted to seize this opportunity to perform well in front of Gu Wuji. He took out a talisman from his arms and stuck it on the ghost’s head. The ghost immediately let out a wailing sound and ran away.
The movements of the two were so fast that Gu Wuji only paused for a moment before continuing: “I don’t think he hates and fears that lady as much as the legend says.”
The housekeeper was still in shock, he felt that he had really hired someone reliable this time! Taking a step back, even if these two people were not masters, their calm attitude in the face of scary ghosts was already far more powerful than the ghost exorcists they had invited before.
The butler’s attitude towards Gu Wuji and Ning Yang also improved, and he immediately said: “It’s very complicated to say this. I can only say that the master did something wrong at the beginning. After all, he was too young and the wife also had a strong temper. Who could guess the extent of her being like that…”
Gu Wuji added, “Then how did you confirm that the ghost in this room is hers? Has anyone seen it before?”
“The only person who has seen it is me, and the new Madam after that. Although a lot of strange things happened at that time, and everyone was rumoring that it was the Madam’s ghost that was causing trouble, no one had actually seen her before that.” The housekeeper wiped the cold sweat from his face, as if he remembered something terrible. “But that time, when I was patrolling at night, I passed by the corridor and suddenly saw a fleeting black shadow in the mirror, heading in the direction of the master’s room. After that, I heard the new lady scream.”
Gu Wuji glanced around, but he didn’t see any mirrors hanging on the wall. It was estimated that no one would dare to let them hang after such an incident.
The housekeeper couldn’t help but sigh, “It was also after that that the new lady disappeared. When we saw her again, there was only one body… This incident caused a great blow to the master, and he was unwilling to deal with anyone again.”
“But the ghost of the lady has not disappeared, and strange things happen in the house from time to time. Although no one gets in trouble, traces of blood still appear in the villa from time to time, which makes many servants exhausted. If it hadn’t been for the master’s insistence, and the expert’s suggestion to suppress the madam’s ghost, this place would probably be in ruins now.”
Gu Wuji said, “That’s it.”
Ning Yang shook his head, “It’s really hard to imagine. Ah, what’s the difference between continuing to live here and seeking death? It’s a shame that Mr. Xia still looks so healthy… He looks better than ordinary old people.”
Gu Wuji listened to his words and suddenly something flashed in my mind.
While talking, the three of them had already walked to the corner in the corridor.
Many ghosts appeared along the way, but these low-level ghosts did not pose much threat to these few people. They were probably lonely ghosts that were attracted to the house because of the gloomy atmosphere. If there wasn’t Ning Yang, a member of the Ning family, following behind, Gu Wuji would have purified them all.
The housekeeper was already breaking out in a cold sweat. He had never seen so many ghosts in his life!
