Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 231: Miserable Situation

Zhao Laoxie and the others looked even more gloomy. Although they had anticipated the danger, they were still shocked that no one had come out alive.

Zhao Laoxie looked at the foggy villa and thought for a while. He could only wait and see the situation. What if those people were fine, but just encountered a critical situation and could not get away for the time being?

If he waited for another day, and if those people still hadn't come out by this time tomorrow, he would have no choice but to burn down the villa!

After all, this matter won't be delayed for long, and the government in the city will intervene, and the result will be the same.

He didn't expect that this villa was as difficult to deal with as Zhuangjia Town.

……

On the mountain, Si He watched the villa slowly return to peace and asked, "Are they dead?"

"Maybe." Ning Ji's handsome eyes revealed a hint of indifference as he looked at the villa.

She then asked, "When do you want to get your things back?"

Although the villa at the foot of the mountain had become a "man-eating" haunted place with no way out and was extremely dangerous, seeing Ning Ji's calm look, we knew that he was confident of getting his things back. After all, he had entered the dangerous Qian family haunted house before and successfully suppressed the things inside. Naturally, he had a deep understanding of those things.

"Wait a little longer, it's not the right time yet," he said.

"Oh." She listened to her and let him do whatever he wanted.

The two of them watched silently for a while, and then Ning Ji took her hand and walked down the mountain, saying as they walked, "Let's go to a nearby town and find an inn to stay in. As for the things in the villa, I'll come back later to get them."

"it is good."

The mountain road was rugged and overgrown with weeds, making it difficult to walk, especially going down the mountain. After only two steps, Ning Ji put his arm around her waist, jumped with his feet, and easily crossed the steep mountain road. His movements were light and agile, and soon they arrived at the foot of the mountain where the carriage was parked.

After Si He got on the carriage, Ning Ji drove away.

The simple carriage slowly drove out of the forest and headed along the path towards the official road in the distance. This direction was away from the farm where Zhao Laoxie and the others were.

Because the road here was uneven, the carriage swayed slightly and was a bit bumpy all the way, but Ning Ji did not urge the horses, but just drove slowly.

Occasionally, we met some passers-by along the way, and they were all discussing the affairs of Zhaojiazhuang with fear and excitement.

After all, it was broad daylight and the whole villa was filled with a spooky atmosphere. How could one not be scared and curious?

While sitting in the carriage, Si He could hear the loud voices of passers-by outside.

The carriage moved slowly along the way, and there was no one following behind. Perhaps it was because they stopped after realizing that so many people had died?

But that's a good thing.

After traveling about seven or eight miles, the carriage arrived at a small town. The town was not big, but it had a large population.

When we entered the town, there were quite a few people on the street and many vendors selling things. It was quite lively. Maybe today was market day.

Ning Ji found the best inn in town to stay at.

At this moment, the sky became increasingly gloomy, as if a heavy rain was about to come.

Ning Ji originally planned to take her out to find food after putting her luggage away, but seeing the weather, he gave up the idea.

"Are you hungry? Should I go get some food?"

He was always worried that she was hungry, so after entering the guest room, he asked her what she wanted to eat.

Si He wasn't too hungry at the moment, but looking at the weather, it was likely to rain heavily soon, and it would be inconvenient to go out later. "Just buy some food at the food store across the street."

"it is good."

Ning Ji didn't let her go out, so she sat on a chair by the window and looked at the street downstairs. The location of this guest room was similar to the inn she had stayed in before in the city, and she could see the bustling streets.

At this time, a storm was about to come, pedestrians on the street walked hurriedly, vendors began to pack up their stalls, and occasionally there were a few complaints.

Ning Ji went into the food store across the street and quickly bought some food. It was a few simple dishes and stews, but the food box was full.

Not long after he came back, it started raining heavily outside.

At this moment, the sky became darker, as if night had fallen, and there was a cool feeling.

Candles were lit in the room, and the dim candlelight illuminated the room. The light was gentle and warm, in sharp contrast to the cold rain outside.

After the food was served, the house was filled with the aroma of food.

The two of them sat opposite each other while having their meal. The candlelight on the table flickered, casting light and shadow on the wall, like a moving painting, full of warmth and beauty.

Compared with the warm atmosphere here, there is another miserable situation in Zhaojiazhuang at this time.

Of the eight Taoists who entered the villa, three have died. Although the whole clan is not extinct, their situation is miserable.

They were trapped in a ghost wall before. After some discussion, they decided to burn down the villa in order to survive.

They burned the front yard hall, thinking that it would affect the ghost wall and allow them to find a loophole and escape, but they underestimated the ability of these ghosts.

After the fire started, thick smoke billowed and the entire front yard was filled with the smell of smoke, which choked them.

At the same time, the ghosts in the front hall came out again. They dealt with them while fleeing, but what made people despair was that they could not escape from the villa no matter what they did. The ghost wall was still there, trapping them tightly.

Due to the thick smoke and fog everywhere, their vision was obstructed and they were injured one after another by those ghost things. Three of them died on the spot.

The remaining five people tried their best and relied on the spiritual weapons in their hands to save their lives.

The five of them sat in the yard, exhausted.

Fortunately, the ghosts retreated after attacking for a while, giving them a chance to catch their breath.

However, the fire in the front room also slowly died out, but they didn't understand how it went out.

The flame suddenly became smaller and then went out, just like what happened when it burned the evil Taoist boy's corpse.

The front hall was in a mess, the doors and windows were burned, the walls were blackened by smoke, the roof had not collapsed yet, but it looked precarious, and there was a pungent burnt smell everywhere.

After the fire, the cold and gloomy atmosphere here became even stronger.

But since they were all injured, they could only sit together, treat their injuries, and then find a way out.

But soon they encountered heavy rain and had to hide at the gate of the villa to take shelter from the rain. Their situation was miserable.

Outside the villa, Zhao Laoxie and others were trapped in the farm because of the rain. Apart from sending people to invite some Taoist priests over, there was nothing they could do.

Si Rong's body was lying in a simple hut on the farm.

The body was originally intended to be cremated because it had died of corpse poison and was prone to abnormal changes. However, before they could burn it, it started to rain heavily. They could only place the body in an unused empty house and deal with it later.

At the window outside the house, a dark shadow looked at the corpse in the house. After thinking for a while, he quietly slipped into the house.
