Xie Liuyi looked back and saw a little boy standing in the dark corridor outside the open wooden door of the kitchen.

He is only five or six years old, wearing an unseasonable short-sleeved white shirt and shorts. The pale face stood out in the dark.

Suddenly, the little boy disappeared in place, and when he reappeared, he was already standing by the dining car on the long kitchen table, as if he had teleported from the corridor.

Xie Liuyi saw his appearance clearly. Most of his eyes were white, with a slight yellow tint. I don't know if it was because of the fire or the original yellow. There was only a small black dot in the middle, which should be the pupil.

Not like a human eye, but more like a bird's eye.

His hair was brown, much like the bearded host at the dinner table.

He disappeared again, and the next second, appeared in front of Xie Liuyi, those bird-like eyes stared straight at Xie Liuyi, and then... Xie Liuyi covered his head, and his spirit He swallowed hard and formed a barrier, covering his entire body inside.

"You can't run away." Xie Liuyi's tone was cold, like a witch who eats children in fairy tales.

The boy showed a panicked look and tried to dash against the barrier. The moment he touched the barrier, white smoke appeared on the skin, and the part in contact with the barrier was instantly charred. He let out a sharp shout, clasped his arms, did not dare to move any more, and looked at Xie Liuyi with hatred with a pair of bird eyes.

Xie Liuyi raised his hand and tapped the wooden hairpin on his head, "You are the same kind."

The white lotus came out of the wooden hairpin, her feet floated in the air without touching the ground, and she approached the barrier. The little boy seemed to be very afraid of her, so he stopped grinning at Xie Liuyi, and squatted on the ground with his head in his arms.

Seeing this, Xie Liuyi understood that the little boy was scared away by Bailian in the corridor before. When Bai Lian returned to the wooden hairpin just now, the little boy couldn't see her, and only saw Xie Liuyi alone, so he dared to appear in front of her.

"Hey, kid, what's your name? How did you die? What's wrong with your eyes?" Bai Lian asked three times. The little boy shrank even more.

"He doesn't understand." Xie Liuyi said helplessly.

"Then why did you call me out?"

Xie Liuyi pulled out the hairpin and handed it over, pouted at the little boy, "Put him away."

"I prepared this hairpin for myself. I have kept it for many years. Why should I put a ghost child I don't know?" Did I eat him?"

She stroked her dog-like hair, "In order to help you, I have lost a lot of cultivation, and I can make up for it after eating him."

The dungeon has just started, and I don't know the prompts. If this little boy is a key NPC, it must not be eaten casually.

Xie Liuyi could only make a bad check, "I'll find you something to eat in the future."

The two were wrangling, when a shrill cry suddenly came from outside the door, one after another.

.

She immediately condensed a fireball and threw it at it.

It was a black cat. The whole body is pure black, without a trace of variegation, completely integrated into the darkness. The meat pad fell to the ground silently, and while running to the kitchen, it made a cry like a cry.

Bai Lian calmly floated further away from the ground, as if she did not want to be in contact with this black cat.

It stands to reason that wild cats are afraid of people. They should not come in when they see someone in the kitchen. But the black cat with the strange sound rushed straight at Xie Liuyi, scratching and biting at the little boy's ghost, but all attacks were blocked by the spiritual barrier.

Xie Liuyi raised his hand and grabbed it in the air, the black cat seemed to be grabbed by the back of the neck by an invisible hand, and mentioned it in front of Xie Liuyi. It howled and struggled in the air, its limbs fluttering, its sharp claws gleaming coldly against the firelight.

The white lotus head floating above her head looked down at this crazy struggling cat, "People say that Xuan cats can catch ghosts, so it's true... Xie Liuyi, I'm coming out with you this time, I I gained a lot of knowledge."

Xie Liuyi frowned.

This black cat has a strange energy fluctuation, which is not within Xie Liuyi's cognition.

And it didn't even look at Bailian, just stared at the little ghost on the ground, indicating that it has no obsession with ghosts, but has something to do with the little boy.

"Bai Lian," Xie Liuyi let go of the black cat, and after the black cat landed, it flew out of the kitchen like lightning, "Follow it."

Bai Lian also knew that the matter was urgent, so she didn't argue with Xie Liuyi anymore, and followed directly through the wall.

After Bai Lian left, the little boy ghost in the spiritual barrier was no longer afraid, stood up and looked in the direction of the kitchen door.

Xie Liuyi has some headaches, except for this gloomy wooden hairpin, there is nothing on her body that can hold a ghost.

Or... find someone who speaks English to try him?

Xie Liuyi reinforced the spiritual barrier again to make sure that he couldn't run away and nothing happened, so he left the kitchen.

Back to the floor where the player lived, Xie Liuyi knocked on the door of the long-haired royal sister. There is no sound inside.

"It's me." Xie Liuyi opened his mouth.

Very light footsteps came to the door, accompanied by deliberately slowed breathing.

"Long March, it's me." Xie Liuyi called out the name of the loli face player.

The figure inside finally determined that the door was not a monster and opened the door. However, she was very cautious and only opened a gap. Through the gap, she could clearly see Xie Liuyi's cold face of being owed money, and then she opened the door wider.

It was the long-haired royal sister who opened the door, "What happened just now? Long March said you told us not to come out first."

This matter is a long story, Xie Liuyi did not answer, only said: "Do me a favor."

"What's up?"

"Examine the ghost."

A big question mark appeared on Xiao Chuman's forehead, looked Xie Liuyi up and down for a long time, "You caught a ghost?"

…

In the corridor on the first floor of the castle, four faint green night pearls appeared.

Xiao Chuman didn't know whether it was because of his vigilance against Xie Liuyi or other reasons, he called the other three players together.

Originally, going to knock on the door of a strange player at night has already made Xie Liuyi very embarrassed. As a result, one stranger became four, and Xie Liuyi's face was so tensed as if the money owed to her had risen from one million to ten million.

Xie Liuyi walked into the kitchen first, pointed in the direction of the kid, and let him go to the side to stop talking.

Several players looked at each other and did not enter.

Xiao Chuman took out a willow leaf and a small bottle from the portable warehouse, dripped the liquid in the bottle on the willow leaf, wiped it on his eyelids twice, and handed the leaf to Long March.

The four players wiped their eyes with willow leaves dripping with liquid before entering the kitchen and slowly groping in the direction of Xie Liuyi's finger.

Xie Liuyi looked at this scene and lowered his eyes.

There are two explanations for their behavior. One is that they cannot see ghosts without props; If they were not at the location of the kid, they were afraid that there would be a trap set up by Xie Liuyi in the dark.

Be cautious. You can't live platinum without being careful.

After a few people approached the kid, the first thing the young man saw was the corpse behind the kid, inside the door of the open storage room.

He almost ate the meat at the dinner table in the evening. Now that he saw the corpse, he realized the reason why Xie Liuyi stopped him from eating meat, and immediately bent down and retched.

Several other players didn't eat, the reaction was not as big as his, but the expressions on their faces were also ugly.

Xiao Chuman squatted down and chatted with the kid. I don't know how she did it, but the little ghost was gradually calmed down by her and began to answer questions.

After asking, she stood up and walked to Xie Liuyi.

" This little boy was called Karl, he said this castle was his home, he used to live with his parents and sister. He was too young to remember when he died already."

When she spoke, Xie Liuyi's consciousness was always on several players, paying attention to Xiao Chuman's heartbeat, blood flow, and expressions of other players.

She is telling the truth. Xie Liuyi confirmed this.

Xiao Chuman took out another puppet, and Xie Liuyi saw that it was also carved from gloomy wood.

She said: "This kind of child ghost wanders outside for a long time, and its brain will be damaged. I want to put it in this puppet and raise it. When he recovers, maybe he can ask Come up with something else. Can you… unravel the means of imprisoning him?"

"He won't run?" Xie Liuyi asked.

"No." Xiao Chuman is very confident.

Xie Liuyi waved his hand to retract the spiritual barrier, and the little boy stood there obediently without trying to escape. Xiao Chuman walked over, put the gloomy wooden doll in front of the little boy, made a gesture, and the little boy got into the doll.

Xie Liuyi learned her movements and simulated her energy fluctuations...nothing happened.

She frowned, and she couldn't ask what Xiao Chuman was doing just now, so she could only hold it down.

The little boy's problem was solved, and several returned to the room.

Long March shivered as soon as he entered the door, "It's so cold, why is our room so cold."

The white lotus is suspended in the window. Xie Liuyi is now certain, they can't really see ghosts without the props, and the effect of the props they use doesn't last long, so the effort will be ineffective after a while.

Xie Liuyi raised his hand and tapped the hairpin lightly, Bai Lian knowingly got in. Without the ghost of Bai Lian, the temperature in the house gradually rose.

Long March is relieved. After tossing for most of the night, she was so sleepy that she yawned, said good night to Xie Liuyi, and fell asleep.

Xie Liuyi breathed a sigh of relief, she was nervous for a long time because she was afraid that this girl would have a bedtime meeting.

She raised her hand, placed a soundproof barrier around her body, turned around and lay down on the wall, asking, "Where's the black cat?"

"The black cat lives in the castle, you can never guess who raised it." Bai Lian's voice came from the hairpin.

Xie Liuyi thought for a moment, "Maid Laura?"

"How did you guess?" Bai Lian was surprised.

Xie Liuyi did not answer. Bai Lian continued: "I followed the black cat to the maid's room, but I found that she seemed to be able to see me, and there was something in her room that made me uncomfortable, so I quickly came out."

Hearing this, Xie Liuyi frowned slightly. The players couldn't see Bai Lian, but the maid Laura could see it, and there was something in her room that even a ghost of Bai Lian's level felt uncomfortable.

She is no ordinary maid.
