I am a god in the secret world

A waning moon appeared in the sky at some point.

The moonlight was very faint and cast almost no light, making the entire courtyard dark.

Bai Cha was carrying a lantern and walking through a corridor.

On the left side of the corridor, there is a small patch of bamboo, and on the other side of the bamboo is the wall.

The wind blew and the bamboo leaves rustled.

Bai Cha stopped and looked for a while.

It's quite cold actually.

This seems to be a vent.

Bai Cha took a few glances and then looked away, intending to continue walking around the yard.

Then she thought she heard crying.

The sound was very faint and intermittent, and not very clear.

The wind blew through the lantern in my hand, and the candlelight inside flickered.

Bai Cha turned around and looked at the bamboo forest again.

She approached slowly.

There was indeed crying.

This small bamboo forest is not big, and the opposite wall can be seen at a glance. It only serves a decorative purpose.

Bai Cha picked up the light and shone it around, but didn't see any figure.

Moreover, the wind was quite strong, which affected her ability to judge where the crying sound came from.

Bai Cha frowned, stepped back, stood a little further away, and listened carefully.

But the crying stopped.

It seemed that the wind also stopped.

The candle in my hand went out for a moment, only for a very brief moment.

Bai Cha felt someone walking past him.

Then everything returned to normal.

The courtyard became extremely quiet.

Bai Cha stood there and looked for a while, then slowly turned around. It couldn't be that there was only one problem here.

She walked along the corridor and came to the main hall.

The doors and windows of the main hall were closed at this time. It was not known whether it was because the two main people in the family had passed away and there was no one to keep watch.

Bai Cha tried pushing it and the door creaked open.

She held up the light and shone it slightly inside.

When the light was directed to a certain place, a woman with an innocent face was standing there abruptly.

The dim light outlined the other person's figure, and Bai Cha immediately narrowed his eyes vigilantly.

The candle in his hand flickered again, and the figure disappeared into the darkness.

[Fuck, I’m so scared]

[Anchor, can you please give a little reaction when you see this kind of thing?]

[She seems to have always been very courageous]

The barrage was not turned on, and even if Baicha was turned on, he wouldn’t care about the scared audience.

She slowly put down the lantern and took two steps into the main hall.

When she reached the middle, she suddenly felt a chill behind her and turned her head to look.

A thin man appeared behind her without her knowing.

The distance between the other person and her was so close that they were almost touching.

Bai Cha looked at the other person calmly and didn't move at all.

The man's eyes didn't seem to be looking at her.

Bai Cha slightly turned his body and found that the other party did not move.

He seemed to be looking at the main seat. Bai Cha followed his gaze and saw no one. When she looked back, the man had also disappeared.

The cold wind rushed into the main hall, causing the screen inside the room to shake.

Bai Cha looked over and saw a folding screen with flowers and birds. The screen was relatively transparent, but because the main light was coming from where she was, she couldn't see what was behind it. There was only darkness.

She walked slowly until she was close.

Then she stopped.

Because she cast a shadow on the screen.

It's her shadow.

But the problem was, the light was in her hand, in front of her.

There was no light source behind her, so how could she cast a shadow on the screen in front of her?
She stood there motionless, and her shadow also stood there motionless.

It's like her real shadow.

To make sure it wasn't a shadow, Bai Cha looked at the ground behind her. Yes, her shadow was behind her.

When I looked up again, not surprisingly, the shadow had disappeared.

Bai Cha reached out and slowly pushed the screen open.

There was nothing behind.

However, she found an earring dropped on the ground.

Bai Cha squatted down and picked up the earrings.

The earrings are very simple in style, a teardrop-shaped earring made of ruby ​​​​and agate, with a pearl on it.

She touched her ears.

Then she took off one earring and compared the two earrings in the palm of her hand. They were exactly the same.

No, not exactly the same.

The pearls on the earring in her hand showed signs of wear.

But the one you picked up should be newer.

She doesn't have pierced ears in real life, but the body in the game does have pierced ears.

So what does this earring represent?

She now has three earrings, and the same on her other ear.

After thinking for a while, she suddenly squatted down and gently put the earring she had taken off her ear back to its original place.

Even the angle remains the same as before.

Then she watched for a while and nothing happened.

She shook the newer earrings in her hand and decided to go inside and take another look.

After all, these NPCs that disappear as soon as she turns around may also require her to divert her attention first.

Really, why be shy? Just do it in front of her.

She wouldn't mind that they looked scary.

Then again, the city lord, or his wife, would definitely not let her go.

So why was she thrown back into this yard? What on earth could have killed her?

Before leaving through the side door, Bai Cha took a special look back.

The earring was still lying on the ground.

Tsk.

Let’s go see something else first.

……

Xu Taotao covered her face and ran out, but she was not in good health and could not run very far. In addition, she was very emotional just now and her vision was blacking out.

When she ran to a corridor, her legs suddenly went weak and she fell out of the corridor.

Fortunately, there was a bamboo forest here, and there were a lot of bamboo leaves on the ground, which were relatively soft. She was blocked by the bamboo and did not roll out.

Xu Taotao turned over in a somewhat embarrassed manner. She couldn't get up and felt uncomfortable all over, with a dizzy head.

My face was also burning.

In fact, the slap from Li was not heavy, but Xu Taotao felt it was very painful.

Her heart ached.

Why blame her?
Why should we blame her for the unhappy marriage?
Why should she be blamed for her father's stroke?
Why does everything have to do with marriage?

She felt very uncomfortable and suffocated, which made her even more miserable, so she burst into tears.

But she didn't dare cry out loud, for fear that it would attract other people to watch, even the servants in the house.

She knew that even the servants in the house would inevitably spread these things out.

At that time, she would be accused of being shameful for lying in the bamboo forest and crying.

I’m afraid that if my father wakes up by then, he will faint again after hearing about this.

She couldn't cry freely, which made her cry even more suffocated, and her throat felt blocked, dry and painful.

Suddenly, she realized someone was looking at her.

Xu Taotao tilted her head slightly, somewhat stiffly.

There are railings on both sides of the corridor.

The railings are hollow.

Through the hollow gap, she saw a pair of feet.

Feet wearing a pair of light pink embroidered shoes.

The embroidered shoes were a little worn out, and the patterns on them were auspicious clouds and plum blossoms.

Looks a bit familiar...

Xu Taotao didn't dare to move, she wanted to look at her feet.

Because, why are the pattern and color exactly the same as the shoes on her feet?
