A Guest in a Ghost House

Chapter 186 Ending and Beginning

A feeling of despair suddenly rose in my mind. I looked up at the huge dark blue eyes at the mouth of the well and listened to the percussive sound behind me. I didn't know what else I could do at this moment.

I looked at my mother and Xueer who fell asleep in phoenix’s arms, the light in the well was very dark and there was only one flashlight, illuminating the passageway behind me, I couldn’t see the face of my mother or Xueer, even though I couldn’t see them clearly, their faces have been deeply imprinted in my mind.

"Quickly, go up quickly." Mom's voice was anxious but firm. I was astonished to see the huge eyes above and could not help saying: "But above?"

Mom said: "Isn't it saying that it will not hurt us? Let’s try it."

I didn’t know whether it was my illusion or not. I felt that my mother’s eyes glowed with persevering light at this moment. I nodded firmly, and then I asked Aunt Li for her help, Aunt Li nodded, cuddling mom and me and then flew up.

Gradually, we got closer and closer to the dark blue eyes, my heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and I could not help praying secretly. I hope that Enmity Dragon Vein could be as good as mom said, he would not hurt us. Not only I was afraid of death, but I hadn't finished too many things. I must save my father and kill the monsters below to take avenge.

when we were less than five meters away from Enmity Dragon Vein’s eyes, he slowly moved away its eyes and I was overjoyed. Aunt Li flew more quickly and we rushed out of the ancient well directly, when we reached on the entrance of it, I heard a huge crash from below.

"Xueer." I could not help screaming, and then looked down, suddenly I breathed a sigh of relief, phoenix with Xueer tightly followed us and were out of the well.

Aunt Li placed us at the edge of the well, when she was preparing to move the huge cyan stone, Enmity Dragon Vein moved around, directly taking the cyan stone with its huge arms and putting it on the ancient well as soon as phoenix left the entrance of the well. Not only covered, but his hands pressed on the cyan stone tightly.

With a fierce clash of “bang”, I could see the cyan stone shook. If it were not for Enmity Dragon Vein's hand, the stone would surely be flying away by clash inside.

The clash continued several times and then stopped, a dull clash came from the well, getting further and further, I thought that the monster had given up.

But I was nervous again, and I looked up to see Enmity Dragon Vein who slowly turned his head to us.

Enmity Dragon Vein looked at us for a long time and stretched out his hand, in my vigilant eyes it pointed to Xueer who was in phoenix’s arms, and said: "Wake up, you are safe."

The sound of Enmity Dragon Vein was so terrible, it just like a person with a wounded throat. It was not just terrible, it seemed to be difficult to speak. I understood that Enmity Dragon Vein wanted us to wake Xueer, but he said it was safe. what did it mean? Was Xueer safe? I thought we hadn’t done anything yet.

"Phoenix, please wake up Xueer." I felt that Enmity Dragon Vein did not seem to be malicious to us. What’s more, if he really wanted to hurt us, there would be no different whether Xue’er was awaken or not.

I did not know how phoenix done it, Xueer woke up soon, rubbing her eyes and lazily stretched,her first words were: "Hey, a big dog."

Enmity Dragon Vein nodded when he saw Xueer woke up, he nodded, drawing a circle at the village entrance with his hands and pointed to Xueer: "I will protect her,"

Then pointed to the old pagoda tree: "People."

Finally pointed to the ancient well: "Catch, you guys."

I slightly nodded, I thought what Enmity Dragon Vein said meant that the location of the village entrance was his, he would protect Xueer. Around the old pagoda tree were people who protected the ancestors of village and the Japanese ghosts, and the ancient well was the nest of the monster who chased us.

I didn't know if I understood what he said correctly, but after seeing me nod, he said directly: "Leave, go, photograph, save, and then save me."

"You mean Xue`er is safe. Now we leave, I'll save the rest people of the photo. And then I can save you. Can I save my dad and my brother?" I heard Enmity Dragon Vein’s words and asked curiously.

Enmity Dragon Vein seemed to encounter something that was difficult to understand. He tilted his head and thought for a long time: "Save the photo, save me, and save everyone."

I stood where I was and never spoke again. I couldn’t control my tears, I have been worried that my father and others had completely died, not before, but when their craniums were thrown out. After hearing Enmity Dragon Vein‘s words, I couldn't help it anymore. I knelt on the ground and cried loudly, and the sound of my weep went far and far in the village.

The villagers and police who were alerted were cautiously approaching here, Enmity Dragon Vein looked at me again: "Photos, save, remember. "Then he slowly fell into the grassy ground at the village entrance.

Maybe seeing people here, the villagers had a lot of courage. Witch Yan came over without hesitation and scolded my mother, it meant we shouldn't come to such a dangerous place.

The mother just smiled in tears even though Witch Yan scolded her, and finally she went forward to embrace her forcefully. Aunt Li helped me up, she made up a lie, and then she went home. Of course, this time she went back with Witch Yan.

Although there were many things in the village that I didn’t get an answer, it was not important, because I have already learned the most important thing: save the people in the photo and rescue my dad, elder brother, sister-in-law and Enmity Dragon Vein.

I didn’t know if there was any necessary connection between save people in the photos and save others. But all people said that. I didn’t think it would be a lie and my future life would change. I didn’t know what kind of danger and horror I would encounter, but I really did not care, now I am full of fighting spirit, I would take a bottle of liquor like my mother did, with a bottle of spirits.

My mother looked at me apologetically. I understood what she meant. But it was what her son should did, wasn't it?

It was already very late, because we were relieved, everyone slept deeply. I was awakened by the ringing telephone, rubbing my eyes mistily, I picked up my cell phone and took a look, okay, all the phone calls were from Wu Jian, with as many as five or six, no wonder it could wake me up.

He should be in a hurry. I picked up the phone and was about to call back, the phone rang again, it was still Wu Jian. I answered: "Hey, I am still sleeping."

On the other end of the phone, Wu Jian said anxiously and excitedly, "I have found Lulu, that day at Shushui University..."
