Li Yingzhu stopped paying attention and kept up with Shen Rongzhao's pace.

"I'm very satisfied here, thank you Mr. Shen."

Li Yingzhu sat on the soft bed and bounced excitedly, her eyes full of novelty.

As expected of the Shen family, one of the four most wealthy families in Beijing, even the beds they sleep on are so luxurious. This mattress is much more comfortable than the one in the Taoist temple. It's worth at least two million, right?

"Daochang Li, you are the person grandpa asked me to find. I will try my best to satisfy any request you have. But -" Shen Rongzhao's eyes suddenly turned sharp, "I hope you can really cure grandpa. If you really tell your elder brother, He is just a charlatan who deceives the elderly. With my methods, Shen Rongzhao, you will not be able to escape from the capital easily."

Li Yingzhu waved her hand delicately , "It's easy to talk. Oh, Mr. Shen, why do you always call me 'Daozhang Li'? It sounds like an old man who is arrogant, so just call me 'Yingzhu' or 'Yingying'" ."

Shen Rongzhao's stern face was unsmiling.

"Daozhang Li, have a good rest. When the matter is over, I will give you the remaining one million."

Li Yingzhu pouted at Shen Rongzhao's retreating back, "Humph, big pig's hooves are not as cute as before."

After saying that, her smart eyes were filled with loneliness.

"sleep!"

Li Yingzhu irritably opened the quilt, covered her head and fell asleep.

23:45.

Shen Rongzhao sat up from the bed, feeling depressed.

Li Yingzhu said that something would happen tonight and told him to fall asleep before twelve o'clock. It sounded like he was being asked to hide in the room all night without knowing it. How could he, a grown man, be more timid than Li Yingzhu, a little girl?

Shen Rongzhao stood up and went out of the bedroom door, and saw that the lights in the room of his eldest brother and sister-in-law were still on.

Shen Rongzhao knocked on the door.

"Brother, sister-in-law, are you still awake?"

Shen Zhongliang's slightly trembling voice came from the room, "Rong Zhao, come in, we're not sleeping."

Opening the door, Shen Rongzhao saw his brother and sister-in-law dressed neatly and sitting upright on the bed, with uneasy expressions on their faces.

"Brother, you don't believe her, why are you so afraid?" Shen Rongzhao raised his eyebrows.

"Of course I'm not afraid!" Shen Zhong had a guilty conscience and pretended to be fearless, "It's just that that girl may still be a little capable. She knows that Qin Zhi has been having miscarriages, so I am more or less afraid of what she said. "

Wang Qinzhi said anxiously, "Husband, how about... we should sleep in separate rooms? I'm scared to stay with you."

"How about that! You have to stay by my side so I can protect you."

Shen Rongzhao watched Shen Zhongliang shaking like chaff, but did not expose his words.

"It's still so early, what are you arguing about?"

Li Yingzhu yawned and squeezed into the room.

Li Yingzhu raised her hand to look at her watch, and said with some dissatisfaction, "I could have slept for ten minutes, but you guys woke me up."

She rubbed her face full of collagen with both hands, and her tired face immediately became energetic.

"Mr. Shen, Mrs. Shen, don't blame me for not reminding you. If you don't leave Young Master Shen now, don't be frightened by what you see later."

Before his brother and wife could express their stance, Shen Zhongliang immediately shouted, "We stay together as a family and no one leaves. It's safer this way!"

"Dong——dong——dong——"

The bell in the living room rang.

It's twelve o'clock.

"Squeak-squeak"

Clear and slow footsteps came from the wooden stairs, and the sound of the collision and friction of bones and joints hit the fragile hearts of Shen Zhongliang and his wife.

Li Yingzhu pursed her lips and smiled, "Here we come."

She took out three amulets made of folded paper from her arms and handed them to several people.

"I'll go out for a moment. Hold on to the amulet and don't go out easily."

Li Yingzhu left the room, bit her finger, drew a charm on the door, and walked downstairs with the peach wood sword.

The three people in the room were just about to breathe a sigh of relief when Li Yingzhu's voice came from outside the door, "Mr. Shen, please come out."

Shen Rongzhao glanced at his brother and sister-in-law who were huddled on the bed, turned the door handle and walked out.

"Daozhang Li, what's going on?"

The corridor in front of him was dark and quiet, and the only response to him was silence.

Suddenly, the world was spinning. Shen Rongzhao came back to his senses and found that he had returned to his room.

Shen Rongzhao wanted to open the door and go out, but the door handle seemed to be welded and could not be turned open.

Shen Rongzhao clenched the amulet in his hand, feeling anxious inside.

"Hubby, why hasn't my brother-in-law come back yet?" Wang Qinzhi huddled in Shen Zhongliang's arms, feeling uneasy.

Shen Zhongliang's teeth were chattering and his eyes were looking around.

"Don't be afraid, I should be discussing something with that girl."

"Giggle--"

A burst of laughter from a little girl suddenly sounded, startling the couple to their wits' end.

"Dad, Mom, I'm here for you." The childlike voice wandered in the room, and the owner of the voice seemed to be in his ears.

"Bang-bang-bang-"

Someone was banging on the door with their fists outside. The two people on the bed had their hearts leaping into their throats, and they didn't dare to let out a sigh of relief.

"Dad, Mom, why don't you open the door? It's so cold outside. You must be very warm in the room, right?"

The "thing" outside the door started crying, and the sound was no longer scary and ethereal, just like the cry of an ordinary little girl.

"Uh-huh, mom, why don't you open the door? Don't you want to see me? We've never spoken before, and you haven't even hugged me properly. It's so cold underground and there are bugs everywhere. They are eating my skin. Flesh and blood, it hurts so much. Mom, you are so cruel."

Wang Qinzhi covered her mouth and shed tears.

Every word from the voice outside the door seemed to pierce her heart.

If it was really her daughter out there, whether human or ghost, she would want to see her daughter.

From the joy of being pregnant for ten months to the grief of giving birth, she never stopped missing her daughter. Even though the fate between mother and daughter was short-lived, they were just a piece of meat that fell from their stomachs. How could they not miss her at all?

"Mom, open the door and let's meet. That Taoist priest will take me in tonight and we will never see each other again. Mom, I miss you so much."

Wang Qinzhi couldn't bear it anymore. She jumped out of bed and quickly opened the door.

"Qin Zhi!" Shen Zhongliang shouted behind him, but it was already too late.

Outside the door, a little girl about ten years old stood there.

The girl is wearing a beautiful white gauze skirt, with a pink and lovely face like a little princess.

The girl smiled sweetly at Wang Qinzhi, "Mom."

Wang Qinzhi laughed and cried, "It turns out you are so beautiful when you grow up."

"Mom, there is a charm on the door. I can't come in. Please wipe the blood on the door and let us have a good talk as a family. After tonight, I will be completely gone."

Wang Qinzhi shook his head sadly, "No, child, it's enough for me to just look at you like this. You go, you shouldn't stay here any longer, my great-grandfather fell ill because of you. My child, mom and dad are sorry for you."

The little girl's innocent face suddenly turned cold.

"Indeed, you are sorry for me. Especially...you!" Her deer-like clear eyes were dripping with black blood, staring in the direction of Shen Zhongliang.

Wang Qinzhi screamed and fell to the ground.

"As long as the door is opened, can this charm still stop me?"

The little girl smiled sinisterly, her face turned pale, and a big hole appeared on the top of her head, and blood was gushing out.

The girl sprinkled her blood on the talisman on the door. The talisman emitted sizzling black smoke, gradually dissolved and dripped to the ground.

The girl showed her strong white teeth and walked into the room step by step. Ignoring Wang Qinzhi who was shaking on the ground, she stepped on the creaking bones of her feet and approached Shen Zhongliang.

"Dad, why are you doing this to me? I'm going to crush your bones, open your belly, and let your intestines flow all over the floor. Hey hey hey."

Shen Zhongliang was breathing heavily and was so tense that he couldn't even faint even if he wanted to.

"I mean, little girl, you went to find your parents before even saying hello to your sister. Isn't it a bit rude?"
