After the captain finished speaking, he turned around and extended his arm as he continued introducing the place, “There are a total of four rooms downstairs. The bedsheets in each room are new and your names are pasted on the door. If everyone is tired from the discussion, you can also go in and take a rest. Anyway, it’s raining outside, and there are a lot of shrubs nearby, so it’s inevitable that there will be danger. If the masters want to go out, let the soldiers follow you out. I’m afraid that my presence here will also affect the discussions of the masters, so I’ll take my leave first.”

After he spoke, the captain straightened his back and gave a military salute. Then, he drove the military Hummer out and disappeared into the distance.

Other than the servants who stayed in the villa, there was no one else in the hall.

The few of them sat in their respective seats. On the coffee table in front of them were beautiful fruits and desserts.

A pot of delicious English black tea was still steaming when it was poured out.

Because it had suddenly rained, the temperature had dropped as well. It was not as hot as before, and actually started to get a little chilly.

Drinking black tea was undoubtedly a good choice. It could warm one’s stomach and also calm one’s mind.

However, under such an atmosphere, no matter how wonderful the black tea was, it wasn’t able to eliminate the depressing atmosphere in the villa.

Master Zhang could not help but ask, “What are your thoughts?”

The monk chanted Amitabha and his eyes seemed to be in a trance.

“I keep having a very uneasy feeling.” As if she really sensed something, Li Ya reached out and clutched her chest.

The rain outside was still falling, and the sound of the rain was loud. It was so heavy that it almost made them wonder if it was actually hailing.

Master Zhang seemed to be shocked. He looked out of the window and asked, “Is there anyone outside the villa? ”

“The soldiers are standing guard. It should be fine.” As soon as the monk finished his sentence, he realized that the soldiers who had sent them here had gone back. After all, they could not stay here 24 hours a day.

Master Zhang touched his chin and said, “I heard about the incident half a year ago that the general mentioned earlier. It was not that simple. Some people said that the girl who drowned in the sea was not an accident at all. However, the students were really frightened and everyone was scared at that time. If Miss Song hadn’t called the police, they would have had a nervous breakdown a long time ago.”

“I’ve heard about it too,” Jing Zifeng said. However, his tone was very calm, which was completely different from Master Zhang’s and he summarized the whole thing in just a few sentences. “When the police arrived, they found that they were all hiding in their rooms and didn’t dare to come out. That night, they played a game. The content of the game was to temporarily pawn their souls in exchange for whatever they wanted. In the end, on the night after the game was over, the girl who suggested playing the game was drowned. The strange thing was that even though the police said she drowned, her face had been completely cut open and the jewelry on her hand was gone. If it weren’t for the fact that there were only a few students around, they wouldn’t even have been able to determine who the dead person was. At that time, they actually did hire a fengshui master but the master didn’t see anything. He just kept saying that it was strange and couldn’t find the cause or any ghost. Eventually the matter was put to rest, and now it’s being brought up again.”

“So there’s really a ghost involved?” Master Zhang asked nervously.

Jing Zifeng glanced in his direction and looked handsome indeed. “Master Zhang has killed demons and spirits for so many years, what do you think?”

“Me? Well...” Master Zhang realized that he was about to be exposed, so he immediately tried to smooth things over. “Even if there’s a ghost, it’s not a big deal. I’m just worried that a younger one like you will be afraid when the time comes. After all, it seems to be a pretty fierce one this time. Ghosts that die in the water usually have a lot of resentment, so some people still have to be careful. Don’t be like the two before us who came here and never returned.”

Helian Weiwei had heard enough of the story and her voice was very indifferent as she said, “Even if we might never return, the possibility of Master Zhang staying is probably the highest, isn’t it?”

At that moment, Master Zhang felt that this girl in front of him seemed to be able to see through his disguise.

From the beginning, he didn’t like Helian Weiwei, and now his heart was very troubled, so he didn’t even want to see her. He immediately stood up and was very angry, “I will go to my room to think about what to do tonight, do you want to come with me, Master Wufan?”

The monk seemed to have been preoccupied from the very beginning. After Master Zhang called out to him, he came back to his senses and stood up tiredly as he rubbed the space between his eyebrows. “I’m also a little tired. I’m going to rest first. I won’t discuss this with the rest of you and I’ll come out when it’s time for dinner.”

“Okay, then I’ll go in and rest too. It’ll save me the trouble of seeing these people who don’t know the rules.” Master Zhang was the first to lock his door.

Next was the monk. The two people’s rooms were next to each other and were on the other side of the hall. There was a back door that directly led to the courtyard of the villa.

The layout of this villa was really well done. It was open from left to right and was very suitable for living. But similarly, it also attracted a lot of yin energy.

Because a swimming pool was built so close to the house, Helian Weiwei’s intuition told her that this wasn’t a good thing.

After all, it was not a hotel, and not everyone was like a certain highness who could withstand any kind of yin energy.

Li Ya saw that Master Zhang and the monk had left, so she also carried her crystal ball back to her room.

At this time, only Jing Zifeng and Helian Weiwei were left in the living room. Of course, there was also a certain highness who was sitting on his long legs and drinking tea. He sensed something, and the corner of his mouth curled up with a devilish mischief unique to demons. “I smell the scent of crime.”

Helian Weiwei stopped texting on her phone, and moved closer to Baili Jiajue’s side. She whispered to him, “I remember that there are many ways to sign a contract between demons and humans.”

“That’s right.” Baili Jiajue put Helian Weiwei’s hand in his palm and played with it, and his tone carried a smile. “My respected master is becoming more and more intelligent.”

Helian Weiwei was speechless.

Why did he use such a mocking tone when it was clearly a compliment?!

Helian Weiwei grabbed his hand and bit down on it gently. Her hair was still fluffy. “So there really is such a thing as pawning your soul.”

“Yes.” Baili Jiajue didn’t like the fact that there was someone else around when he was with Helian Weiwei. How could he put his master on his lap and hug her like this? Indeed, the youth sitting opposite him was really a bit of an eyesore.

Jing Zifeng saw Baili Jiajue looking at him and also understood that he seemed to be a bit redundant around here, so he carried a cup of black tea and walked into his room.
