Chapter 18 He

pretended with a smiling face that nothing had happened.

But even if he covered himself with the quilt, he would think of the shadow as soon as he closed his eyes.

It was impossible to get rid of it. He

could even imagine more terrifying scenes out of thin air.

He turned on his phone and wanted to watch some videos.

But he found that

the phone flashed and then the screen went black.

Gao Mingxuan:!!!

Then no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open it.

The noise outside continued.

The curtains in front of the window were blown open by the wind, and even with the quilt covered, he felt the cold air coming in through the gap.

He felt cold and his palms were sweating.

Gao Mingxuan thought of himself.

He is a man, and he is already 27 years old this year!

Now an unknown creature appeared at the door of his house and he actually hid in the quilt. He

is really disappointing!

Gao Mingxuan:...

No,

he has to go out and take a look.

Not for himself, but also for his elderly grandmother, he must go out and see what is going on.

Don't let him pat his butt and go back to work without doing anything. His grandmother is alone at home, what should he do if that thing comes again! ! !

Gao Mingxuan found a flashlight and quietly went downstairs.

His house is a two-story house.

The house is built at a relatively high position, and there are few neighbors around.

Usually his grandmother lives on the first floor, and he lives on the second floor when he comes back.

The house

was so quiet in the middle of the night that it was really weird.

Gao Mingxuan turned off the flashlight when he reached the door.

He was afraid of attracting the attention of the thing outside.

The closer he got, the louder the sound of the axe chopping the tree, and the faster his heart beat.

Until he walked to the door.

The thing outside seemed to have discovered him.

At the moment when the thing slowly turned back to look at him, he turned on the flashlight to shine on the face of the thing.

A pale face, looking straight at him.

"It's a ghost face, the facial features seem to be drawn, and when I look at it, it also looks at me, and it is smiling at me."

He could see that the corners of its mouth were grinning to the back of its ears.

The axe in its hand seemed to be about to chop him in the next second.

Gao Mingxuan was directly frightened and fainted.

At this point,

a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

The fingers gripping the steering wheel turned white.

"Master, do you know what my grandma said the next day?"

Bai Lingyan asked,

"What did she say?"

Gao Mingxuan said,

"My grandma said it was her who chopped down the trees at night."

"She said that if I didn't let her chop during the day, she would chop at night, and I couldn't hear it."

"But I don't think so. I saw clearly that it was a ghost face, and it smiled at me."

"It can't be my grandma."

"Master, do you think that was my grandma?"

Gao Mingxuan looked at Bai Lingyan.

Expecting him to say that it was his grandma.

Because in this case, perhaps things would be much simpler.

If it wasn't...

Bai Lingyan shook his head.

"No."

Gao Mingxuan: !!!

It's over,

it's a big deal.

Gao Mingxuan didn't ask who it was if it wasn't his grandma.

He felt that even the most powerful master had to go to the scene to see the specific situation.

After working outside for so many years, dealing with people is a compulsory course he has to learn every day.

He suppressed this topic first.

Because he knew that

everything would be clear when he got to his house.

It's been so many days, and it doesn't matter now.

Now he just needs to tell everything he knows without hiding anything.

This is the most important thing at the moment.

Gao Mingxuan continued,

"The old lady is old and has a bad memory. I guess she may have forgotten what she did. I didn't argue with her for fear of making her angry."

"I thought, when it's night, I will go under the tree and watch for myself to see what's going on."

In fact,

he did so.

Mobile phone, power bank, flashlight, electric baton, kitchen knife...

Any tools that can be handy were brought by him.

Before it got dark,

he moved a small stool and sat under the osmanthus tree.

The osmanthus flowers this year are particularly fragrant.

Especially at night, the fragrance is like perfume.

He took a deep breath.

Then he sat under the tree and played with his mobile phone.

It was getting darker and darker.

Gao Mingxuan looked around vigilantly to avoid missing anything important.

He just stared outside.

Suddenly,

the light in his room on the second floor came on.

Gao Mingxuan: !!!

He called his grandmother, but he only heard the phone ringing but no one answered.

In order to find out if the light in his room was turned on by his grandmother, he took his mobile phone and went directly to the old lady's room.

After entering,

he found that the old lady had fallen asleep at some point.

Gao Mingxuan covered her with a thin blanket gently, slowly went out and closed the door.

He went upstairs with a solemn face.

The light in the room was very bright, and he did not find anything after searching for a long time.

However,

he was sure of one thing.

That is, the light in his room was not turned on by his grandmother.

Because the old lady had fallen asleep.

So,

there really is a ghost!

After reaching this conclusion, Gao Mingxuan walked to the window as if possessed by a ghost.

He saw

that the figure appeared again under the osmanthus tree.

This time Gao Mingxuan rushed out with a stick without hesitation.

The ghost was the same as yesterday.

When she noticed him coming, she slowly turned her head.

Her face was still smiling.

But the smile on his face was even bigger.

Just as he raised the stick and swung it over, he heard someone calling him.

"Mingxuan?"

"Mingxuan?" "

Gao Mingxuan, why don't you go home yet?"

"Playing around again, aren't you?"

The last sentence was what made his scalp tingle.

"Come here quickly."

"Mom is taking you home..."

These words and this voice were exactly the same as what his mother said when she was still alive.

It can be said that they were exactly the same.

But

his mother was dead.

Who was taking him home now...

"I didn't dare to agree."

"When I looked at the ghost again, it turned out to be my grandma."

"She asked me why I didn't go back to the room to sleep."

"I..."

At this time,

he was still holding the stick. He

almost hurt his grandma by mistake.

After this experience, he didn't dare to bring these dangerous items again.

The old lady was still looking at him, asking him to go back to the room to sleep.

He had no choice but to go back. He

thought about coming out when the old lady fell asleep.

But every time he fell asleep in the room first.

And he had the same dream.

"Mingxuan, your parents are here to take you home!"

When he woke up,

it was almost noon the next day.

The sweet-scented osmanthus tree at the gate of the yard was in full bloom.

It was a bit dazzling at first glance.

Bai Lingyan asked,

"Is this the first time that the sweet-scented osmanthus tree at the gate of your house bloomed this year?"

Gao Mingxuan was stunned.

"It seems so."

It has been planted for at least twenty-seven years.

Normally,

this kind of tree can bloom in three to five years.

Even if it is a little later,

ten years is almost enough.

But now,

it has been at least twenty-seven years!!!
