Chapter 1: Traveling and pretending to be a ghost

In the silent night of late autumn, a thunder exploded, the clouds began to roll, and a heavy downpour fell without any warning. In an instant, the only sound that could be heard was the sound of rain hitting the ceramic tiles, mixed with the strong wind.

The sound of blowing against the windows that could not be closed tightly.

At this time, a bolt of lightning pierced the night sky, and the dazzling light illuminated the entire sky, and then there was another thunder. The white silk that was blown everywhere by the wind finally showed her graceful dancing posture through the bright light. I don’t know if it was because of the strong wind or the

The white silk ribbon was too long, and the plates of fruits enshrined on the table were swept to the ground.

At the same time, the man on the bed sat up suddenly, and the white cloth that did not reach his head slid down, revealing a face that was so pale that there was no blood at all. The wind and rain everywhere were mixed with lightning and thunder, plus the flickering lights everywhere.

The bed with its white curtains blown away by the wind looked particularly scary.

Chu Xiaomeng felt a strong sense of powerlessness all over her body, as if she had used up all her strength when she stood up just now. She even stayed in bed for a long time in a daze before realizing that she was in a strange and strange environment.

middle.

She couldn't tell whether she was awakened by thunder or by the tributes falling on the table. In short, her mind was blank now and she couldn't care less about being afraid.

Fortunately, she is used to being very nervous. No matter how important things are, they are not as important as sleep in her eyes. Are you afraid? Let's wait until she wakes up.

So, with a heart as big as Chu Xiaomeng's, she blinked her eyes and prepared to go back to sleep. But before she lay back down, someone was so strong that she opened the wooden door and threw it heavily.

There was a piercing scream on the wall, which finally made her whole body energetic.

"Ghost...ghost!"

...

Chu Xiaomeng pulled her eyelids hard and looked hard at the source of the sound. She wanted to curse that it was so noisy, but no sound came out. This feeling was like something was blocked in her throat.

It was extremely uncomfortable. But unfortunately, the person who was screaming had no intention of stopping. She was helpless and it was impossible to have a good sleep.

Chu Xiaomeng held the edge of the bed to sit up, used the remaining strength in her body to push herself up, and walked towards the screaming person. Unexpectedly, the person simply sat on the ground and backed away desperately, as if he had seen a ghost.

.

Chu Xiaomeng couldn't help but think that even if she had been unkempt for several days, she wouldn't be at the point where people would hide at the first sight, right?

Before she could get closer, she heard the man kneeling on the ground and muttering: "Miss, you...if you don't want to live in peace, you should go find the second young lady. Even if the maidservant is not doing her best for you, she still has a lot to do with you."

I have been working by your side for more than ten years. There is no credit but hard work...maid, please, please spare my life..."

This paragraph finally made the half-asleep Chu Xiaomeng completely wake up!

What the hell? Isn’t this a dream?

Chu Xiaomeng, who has been troubled by dream demons since she was a child, naturally regards all this as a more ordinary dream among her many nightmares, so she does not feel strange even if she suddenly finds herself in an inexplicable place. It is just a dream.

Forget it, the worst case scenario is that if she goes back to sleep, she will still be an office worker earning a fixed monthly salary when she wakes up.

But obviously, this time it didn't seem to be what she thought, she failed to sleep back successfully, and all of this was terrifyingly real.

Chu Xiaomeng subconsciously made a gesture of pinching herself. Sure enough, it almost hurt her to death.

She is a patient with severe sleep paralysis, also known as "ghost on the bed". Basically, as long as she falls asleep, she will never have a dreamless night. This symptom has been with her for more than ten years, and she has long been used to it.

This kind of life, but she never thought that one day she would travel through this way!

Did she die? She separated from her body and came here. Just like what was written in the novel, she came to a different world?

Chu Xiaomeng sighed softly. Fortunately, she had long been accustomed to bad luck in her previous life. Nothing good would happen to her anyway. Now, maybe God gave her a second chance to be reborn.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiaomeng, who was as big as Chu Xiaomeng, immediately accepted the fact that she had traveled through time, and was ready to conquer the world with a lollipop in her mouth in this strange world.

Chu Xiaomeng knelt down, stretched out an index finger and poked the person who had been talking about it for a long time, and shouted at the top of her lungs: "Sisters, please stop, if you keep shouting, I will scream to you.

broken."

Unexpectedly, it was a good thing that she did not touch the other person, but this touch frightened the person to death. Fortunately, with the lightning and thunder, her voice blended with the sound of the rain, so she was not afraid of disturbing anyone sleeping late at night.

Seeing that the woman was about to get up and run away, Chu Xiaomeng quickly stopped her and lowered her voice and said: "Stop! I will ask you a few questions and let you go after I ask them. Otherwise, where will you go to me?"

I can catch you."

Chu Xiaomeng had an idea, and sure enough, the man stopped moving and stayed in place with his head lowered. He was trembling all over and did not dare to speak. She could faintly hear the sobs she suppressed.

"Let me ask you, where is this place?"

The man was obviously stunned for a moment, and then answered truthfully: "Bianjing Hanlin Academy repaired Chu, Rong repaired Chu Mansion."

After hearing this, Chu Xiaomeng's mind went blank. What is this? But at least she knew it was an official title.

"Then who am I? Who am I here?" Chu Xiaomeng then asked.

The woman did not dare to lie, so she replied: "You...you are the eldest lady of the Chu family, Chu Qianqian, and you are the master who is served by the maidservant."

As she had guessed, she was quite satisfied with this status. At least she should have enough food and clothing.

"Last question, you just said I was dead, then how did I die?" This woman was so panicked. When she just saw her, she said she would never die in peace. She could tell with her toes what her original master was.

Death was definitely not an accident.

She doesn't have any deep righteousness to avenge the original owner of this body. After all, she can't save herself and is alone. Surviving in this strange world is her only wish. Her life is also hard-earned.

, she doesn’t want to be taken away easily. But if she wants to survive, she must know what kind of environment she is in.

The woman hesitated for a long time, holding back tears in her eyes, but she didn't say a word.

It's really interesting. At this time, you still have to hide it for others?

"If you don't tell me, who will I look for if I die?" Chu Xiaomeng lowered her voice and pretended to be serious, sounding like a female ghost looking for someone to kill her.

If a female ghost threatens you in front of you, everyone will be scared to death, okay?

"I...I said...I said, miss, I beg you, don't take me away. I still have old people to care for. Miss is kind-hearted. Please have mercy on me."

..." The woman was so frightened that she became incoherent and kowtowed directly on the ground.

Chu Xiaomeng couldn't help but rolled her eyes in her heart, pity you? I'm dead, who will pity me? I'm dead, and you want me to be a ghost to pity you? She really didn't expect that women in ancient times were so verbose.

So shameless?

"Then tell me, who is it? Who killed this young lady?" According to Chu Xiaomeng's bad temper, she should have jumped off her feet long ago, but as a "ghost", she seems to have to pay attention to her image.

"Yes... it's the second young lady. She poisoned the young lady's medicine. The poison was colorless and odorless. After drinking the young lady, she vomited a lot of blood. When the doctor arrived, she had already passed away. Miss, it's really not me.

I also heard what the cook in the kitchen said." The woman was obviously frightened, her whole face turned pale, and there was faint sweat on her forehead.

Chu Xiaomeng almost knew what was going on. The owner of the original body was obviously poisoned to death by her sister. As for the deep hatred between the two people, she didn't care. The soul that had passed through this body would have no regard for her.

In itself, it is a matter that is not under her control, but now that she is here, she will take care of herself. She just wants to live well, but if anyone wants to take her life away, she will definitely not let it.

People are treated like soft persimmons.

Chu Xiaomeng stood up in disgust, with a tired look on her face. She was already a little angry when she got up. After being woken up, she couldn't go back to sleep directly and had to get up in the middle of the night to pretend to be a ghost and chat with people. Now she should talk.

It was over, and she accepted the fact with a big heart. The bed seemed to have a hand that wanted to pull her back. She couldn't help but yawned lazily when the lightning was thundering and the white silk was fluttering.

.

"Okay, you can go out. I'm going to bed. Let's talk about anything else tomorrow." Chu Xiaomeng closed her eyes directly, groping for the idea of ​​just going back to bed.

The woman didn't know if she had misunderstood something, and immediately said in panic: "Miss, please let this slave go. Even if you have any grievances, you should go to the underworld to talk to the King of Hell. I am afraid that my slave status is low... I'm afraid..."

I can’t help you redress your injustice!”

Chu Xiaomeng laughed angrily. This woman must have been frightened because she thought she said she would come to see her tomorrow.

"What's your name?" Chu Xiaomeng asked nonchalantly.

The woman obviously did not expect that Chu Xiaomeng would suddenly ask her name. Even if she had doubts in her heart, she did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately replied: "Slave Danqing, the name was given by the young lady herself."

After hearing this, Chu Xiaomeng nodded, regardless of whether the person saw it or not, and said to herself: "Danqing, right? You can see clearly. There is a shadow under my feet. See if I am a ghost.

"

After hearing this, Danqing didn't dare to look up. She only dared to take a peek at Chu Xiaomeng's feet. At this time, there happened to be a flash of lightning, and Chu Xiaomeng's figure was stretched very long. The place where her sight could reach was Chu Xiaomeng's feet.

There was an area under Xiaomeng's feet, and beyond her elongated figure was Chu Xiaomeng's white clothes that were blown up by the wind. This sight not only did not reduce her fear, but made her even more frightened.
