I am a god in the secret world

Chapter 286: [Until Death] Two-pronged Advance

Bai Cha walked through the side door and looked around.

The corridor here is ventilated on all sides. When the wind blows in, it swirls and makes it seem even colder here.

It might be better in summer.

There are rockery and water not far away, but the water has frozen.

Walking all the way from the room she was in, although there were some supernatural incidents, there was nothing dangerous so far.

Bai Cha was also unable to judge what had happened in this ancient house based on some of the current supernatural events.

And what role did she play in this that was worthy of the female ghost sending her here to die, or to say that her life would be worse than death.

She didn't walk very fast.

As she turned the corner, she heard footsteps behind her.

The footsteps did not sound uniform, as if there were two people.

Baicha stopped and looked back.

Behind him was a dark corridor without a single person in sight.

But the footsteps were getting closer and closer.

When it was almost in front of him, it suddenly stopped.

Then, there was the sound of footsteps going away.

But another footstep continued.

strangeness……

While Bai Cha was thinking, the footsteps had already arrived in front of him.

Then, she felt someone pulling the hem of her clothes.

Or rather, it seemed like a slight hook.

She looked around her thoughtfully.

The light in her hand flickered, casting her shadow on the ground.

Bai Cha looked down at his own shadow.

There are two.

One is your own, and the other is by your side.

The shadow beside him was not very clear, he could just barely make out that it was a human figure.

Bai Cha stood there and watched for a while, when he suddenly heard footsteps again.

It's the one who left before and now comes back.

The footsteps also stopped beside him, and then the two footsteps moved forward together.

Bai Cha followed.

She thought the sound was quite interesting.

This seems to be different from ordinary hauntings.

Generally speaking, ghosts display these sounds to scare people.

They will gradually grow from small movements to big movements, and then appear.

However, it seemed more like two people were communicating with each other, or something had been recorded in this corridor.

It's similar to the effect of a mirage, but this one may be a little more supernatural.

The footsteps moved forward and disappeared completely when they reached a courtyard.

Bai Cha looked at the yard, which seemed to be the main yard.

When I got closer, I found that the yard was locked and the lock was quite heavy.

Bai Cha pushed the door and it creaked. Through the crack in the door, she could see a little bit of the scene inside.

But it's just an outline, it's very dark here.

Suddenly, a pale, old face appeared in the crack of the door.

It was a man wearing dark clothes.

Bai Cha was silent for a moment, and then he saw that the lock in front of him suddenly fell off, and the door opened.

Several people appeared in front of her.

Leading the group was an elderly man with a pale complexion, followed by a young child and two women behind him.

Each of them had a dead look on their faces and moved towards Bai Cha.

Bai Cha stepped aside.

As expected, as if everything was just a recorded scene, they were still moving forward, and their target was not Bai Cha.

The light flickered and the person disappeared.

Bai Cha secretly wondered who those people were just now?
Since the old man was walking in front, he seemed to be of a very high status. Could he be Xu Taotao's father?

But the clothes don't seem to be similar.

The main reason was that it was too dark. Basically, apart from a face glowing green, I couldn't see anything else.

Baicha avoided the main road and walked inside. Just as she reached the door, she heard a scream from inside.

The voice sounded very broken.

Then there was crying, several people were crying.

Bai Cha stood at the door, and the light in her hand flickered again.

Then, a figure stood beside him.

It's a girl.

Bai Cha pretended not to see it, moved a little, and then knocked on the door.

The crying inside stopped abruptly.

The wind blew through the courtyard and the door opened.

……

Xu Taotao stubbornly shook off Li's hand.

"I don't kneel!"

Li was very angry with her.

"You unfilial daughter, look at what you have done. You are not even willing to apologize to your father?"

Xu Taotao felt the frustration and anger rising up again.

This is worse than before.

She opened her mouth and trembled for a long time, unable to utter a word, as if she had lost the ability to speak.

And the Li family is still exporting.

"I work so hard every day to run this household, and I keep looking for matchmakers for your marriage. Why? Isn't it because I hope you can marry into a good family? I feel bad that you will eventually get married, so I can't help but spoil you a little more. And this is how you repay me, right? I really spoiled you!"

"You are the only daughter of your father and I, and I don't expect you to take care of us in our old age, but what are you doing? Ah? Xu Taotao, let me ask you, are you worthy of your father and me?"

Xu Taotao shook her head, she didn’t understand.

She didn't understand how these words were related.

She didn't do anything, she just said what she wanted to say, why did it turn out like this?
Her whole body was shaking, and the tightness in her chest made her breathing stutter.

Li had already started crying.

Xu Taotao screamed out of unbearable pain.

She was screaming with almost all her strength, and her voice broke.

But I can't vent my emotions at all, not at all.

She collapsed, covered her chest, fell to the ground and started crying.

Seeing this, Li cried even more sadly.

Unlike Xu Taotao who lost her ability to speak, Li could still scold Xu Taotao while crying.

"You're still going crazy here. I've taught you for so many years and you're still like this? Are you blaming me? Or your father?"

"Are you blaming us for not finding you a good marriage, for not finding you a marriage you're satisfied with?"

"Or are you blaming us for not teaching you well? I regret giving birth to you!"

Xu Taotao was so excited that her whole body was twitching.

She wanted to say, "Then you don't have to give birth to me, it's not my choice," but she couldn't say anything, as if someone had cut off her tongue.

I had a thousand words to say in rebuttal, but I couldn't even pronounce a complete word.

At this moment, Xu Taotao heard three knocks on the door.

knock knock --

The sound was not loud, and even seemed so slight amidst Li's accusations.

But she caught it in an instant.

Xu Taotao was slumped on the ground, looking towards the door.

Someone is standing there.

Standing outside the door, a human shadow was cast on the oil-paper door.

Xu Taotao couldn't describe how she felt. She suddenly stood up, walked to the door and pulled it open.

nobody.

There was only a maid on duty outside.

"What are you doing? Do you want to leave again? If you don't apologize today, don't come back!" Li shouted behind her and threw a cup at her.

The sound of the cup breaking was so clear.

Xu Taotao came to her senses, turned sideways, looked back, and looked at the broken cup on the ground.

She suddenly became surprisingly calm, even though those emotions were still hitting her.

She looked at Li deeply.
