Zhen Shan had been a marionette once, and he couldn't bear the feeling of being played as a chess piece again.

Mr. Nian walked beside her, his eyes lowered, his trembling eyelashes seemed a little fragile, and his lost back made the audience want to shake Zhen Shan's shoulders to wake her up and see how good the man beside her was!

Of course, no one dares to go, not to mention that they are all adults and understand the principle of not meddling in other people's feelings. Even if they do, they may not be thanked by Mr. Nian, and they may even be disliked.

Ahem, but the most important thing now is to go to the villa first!

Everyone followed the two people and walked in. Unknowingly, everyone regarded the two of them as the leaders.

In the night, Lu Yi glanced at Zhen Shan's back, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

Mr. Nian paused slightly, glanced behind her without leaving any trace, and then continued to follow her as if nothing had happened.

A group of people walked through the courtyard and walked towards the hall. Suddenly, a rickety figure holding a lantern appeared under the eaves in front. The dim light reflected on 'his' wrinkled face, which looked eerie and strange, and his eyes were staring straight into the sky.

Staring at them, everyone turned pale with fright, and the office woman couldn't help but scream.

Lin Rong, who was next to her, quickly reached out and covered her mouth. The blood lesson taught her that she must not scream when she encounters supernatural ghosts, otherwise the louder she screams, the faster she will die!

Just when Lu Yi and the others were about to turn around and run away, Zhen Shan stepped forward and politely greeted the rickety figure, "Old man, are you from this villa?"

Everyone looked horrified, thinking that this beauty was truly a warrior!

The rickety figure moved, and the office woman rolled her eyes in fright. She suddenly pushed Lin Rong away and ran wildly outside the villa.

The others also wanted to run away, but when they saw Zhen Shan standing there with a normal expression, refusing to hide or dodge, they managed to hold on to their legs.

If Zhen Shan had not led them out of the endless stone steps, no one would have dared to believe her at this time. In addition, there was a veterinary warrior beside her who could easily run up the endless stone steps with a person in his arms. They subconsciously placed their bets on her.

.

The rickety figure slowly walked out of the eaves. He seemed to have difficulty with his legs and feet, walking very slowly. The lantern shook, and Zhen Shan was worried that the candle inside might fall over at any time and burn the lantern.

"Welcome to our guests!"

He spoke word by word, his hoarse voice was like an embroidery machine, a bit unpleasant and harsh.

Zhen Shan smiled and nodded to him, "I'm bothering you late at night."

The old man rolled his cloudy eyes, looked at Zhen Shan, and said humbly, "I don't dare."

"It's late. I have arranged accommodation for all our guests. Please come with me."

"Trouble."

Zhen Shan and Mr. Nian followed the old man. Brother Lu, Xiao Feng and Lin Rong did not hesitate and followed.

"Brother Lu?"

Wang Shuai and the grim-faced man Lao Yu looked at Lu Yi.

"Walk!"

Lu Yi only paused for a moment before deciding.

As for working women, everyone seems to have forgotten it. What can we do if we don't forget it? If you can't save your own life, how can you have the leisure to save someone who is seeking death?

The group of people followed the old man through a long corridor. On one side of the corridor was the courtyard wall and on the other side was a lotus pond. Under the light, the lotus leaves were verdant, and pale pink and white lotus flowers bloomed beautifully on it, shining brightly.

The scenery is breathtaking.

Even Zhen Shan, the daughter of the richest man in the gold market, had to admire the luxury and beauty of this villa.

However, her eyes suddenly fell on the lantern in the hands of the old man in front of them. As they walked along, the lights in the villa were very bright, and they could see the road clearly without holding a lantern. Why did the old man need a lantern?

Thinking so, she also asked.

The old man replied slowly: "The lantern shines on its own path."

Zhen Shan's eyes changed slightly. The lantern was shining on his own road, but what about the lights in the villa? What kind of road was it shining on?

Before she could say anything, Wang Shuai asked.

The old man twisted his neck stiffly and looked at him steadily, "Does the guest want to know?"

Wang Shuai's face turned pale and he couldn't help but take a step back, "No... no!"

"That's it!"

The old man turned his head back with regret and continued to walk forward slowly. No one dared to ask this strange old man any questions, not even Zhen Shan. Asking such questions involving the answer to a riddle was in vain.

But after walking for a while, he spoke on his own.

"There have been some guests here before."

Everyone's breathing was slightly suffocated, and they wanted to ask, "Where are those guests?"

However, they dare not, who knows whether this problem is a condition of death.

Zhen Warrior Shan seems to be fearless and does not care about encountering the conditions of death. After all, some things cannot be avoided by hiding. Lu Zhong taught her this truth completely with the lives of her parents.

"Old man, have they all gone back?"

While the others heaved a sigh of relief, they pricked up their ears, wanting to hear what the weird old man had to say.

The old man didn't seem to hear Zhen Shan's question clearly and smiled hoarsely, "The maple leaves in the back mountain are very beautiful. Miss, you can go and have a look."

Everyone's faces turned pale. The maple leaves are red. Why are they beautiful? In this supernatural world, they are nothing more than stained with blood.

Could this old man mean that all the previous pioneers who entered the villa died and became nourishment for the maple trees?

No, maybe, the previous tattooed men, Achang and Lao Gao are already there nourishing the maple trees now!

Xiaofeng's eyes were so red that he almost couldn't help but want to rush to the back mountain now.

Lin Rong held her shoulders tightly and shook her head. Xiaofeng closed her eyes in pain, and tears fell silently.
Chapter completed!
