A Guest In A Ghost House

Soon we came to a prairie so large that we could not see the edge of it . In the middle was a small lake . On the edge of the lake was a dead tree that at least ten people could wrap their arms around . Although the tree had died, it was still possible to imagine the spectacular sight of the tree when it was alive from the huge tree trunk and branches .

Under that dead tree was a humble treehouse .

The long s.h.i.+rt person slowed down . Wu Jian and I whispered a few words, then prepared to move forward to check out the treehouse . Yan"er again sent the long s.h.i.+rt person to do the investigating . He crawled to the treehouse, and half of his huge body wriggled and squeezed into the house while the other half waited outside .

"Would the man you mentioned be in there?" Wu Jian asked, unsure .

"I don"t know, I hope so . " I was also uncertain . After all, this place seemed too weird to have a livable house .

The long s.h.i.+rt person stayed in the house for a long time but did not seem to be panicking, which put us at ease .

After a while, Yan"er was worried . "I"ll go and see . " With that, she drifted slowly toward the treehouse . She seemed to care about the long s.h.i.+rt person even if she treated him as her slave .

"Wait," said Lulu . Yan"er looked at Lulu in confusion and she continued, "Let"s go together . I think it"s a little strange and could be unsafe . ”

Wu Jian nodded and agreed with Lulu that we should all stay together .

We all walked toward the treehouse . I seemed to hear the sound of chewing nearby . Looking at Wu Jian and the others, I saw their faces change a little . The noise didn"t seem to be my hallucination .

The closer we got to the treehouse, the louder the noise was . I grew nervous . Wu Jian whispered a few words to Huang Xiaolong, and he went to the monster"s tail, took a sharp knife from his bag, and, to everyone"s astonishment, inserted it directly into the crevice beneath the carapace .

The tail trembled a little and then resumed wiggling as it had been . Huang Xiaolong looked to Wu Jian and said, "Should I do it again?"

Wu Jian shook his head . The tail of the monster was very large, but Huang Xiaolong hadn"t inserted the knife lightly . From the crack in the tail, a little bit of green liquid began to trail out .

Something had happened . I worried about the long s.h.i.+rt person . It was impossible for him to be unharmed by the injury .

Yan"er also understood this . Her facial expression became worried . She tried to enter the treehouse several times, but she was stopped each time by Sister Hua .

"Sister Hua!" Yan"er shouted anxiously .

Sister Hua pressed her palm over Yan"er"s mouth, then she called the mysterious person who had been at the side of the group .

To tell the truth, this mysterious person felt nonexistent . I couldn"t even remember him being with us other than at the beginning of the journey .

I looked carefully at this mysterious man . He was wrapped in black cloth robes that even covered his head, but he was barefoot . I realized, from the figure of the mystery man, that he was actually likely a woman .

Thinking about it, I realized that since she was from the third floor of the Ghost House, she must be a woman . I hadn"t seen a man in the Ghost House except myself .

"Lulu, who is that?" I asked her in a low voice .

Lulu looked at me and said, "Big Sister . "

I did not understand the answer, but when I saw Lulu staring at the treehouse with a complicated expression, I knew she wasn"t in the mood to say anything else and that I should shut up .

Sister Hua and the mystery person spoke in low voices . I could see that they were having a conversation, but I could not hear anything .

The mysterious person went up to the tree house, but the long s.h.i.+rt person had gone through the front entrance and his body now blocked the door .

While I was wondering how the mystery person was going to get in, the long s.h.i.+rt person"s tail almost hit her as it wiggled . The mystery person gently waved her hand like she was waving flies away, and the giant tail of the long s.h.i.+rt person moved to one side with a loud noise .

The loud noise seemed to wake the people in the treehouse and the sound of chewing suddenly stopped . I thought the mystery man was going to throw the long s.h.i.+rt person aside and enter the room, but instead, she stood directly in front of the treehouse, putting her hands together and then slowly separating them .

The treehouse suddenly had a huge crack in the wall . As the mystery person"s hands separated, the crack got bigger and bigger .

The situation inside became more visible and when I saw the scene clearly, I felt speechless .

Lulu"s face grew darker and she looked at the long s.h.i.+rt person in the treehouse with eyes that looked ready to burst into flames .

"Seriously?” Huang Xiaolong cried .

Wu Jian pulled Huang Xiaolong back and then looked at me without a word .

The monster was now bent over a large pot in the middle of the treehouse . His head didn"t fit in, so he stood over the opening of the pot, scooping its contents into his mouth with his little feet .

Yan"er turned into a wisp of smoke and flew in front of the monster, then changed into a person and swiftly kicked over the huge pot .

The monster uttered a shrill cry and then the voice of the long s.h.i.+rt person rang out . "No!"

"No?! I want to kill you!" Yan"er kicked at the monster .

The long s.h.i.+rt person didn"t resist, allowing Yan"er to pummel him while he looked at the food spilled on the ground . I don"t know if it was my imagination, but I swore that the monster actually looked sad .

Chapter 110 Loving You for Ten Lives Since You Pierced My Heart 10. Riding the long s.h.i.+rt person-monster not only gave us the advantage of speed but protection as well . Although strange beasts roared in the forest, we had not been attacked . Soon we came to a prairie so large that we could not see the edge of it . In the middle was a small lake .
