Shen Ningning scolded: "What do you do!"

Those people turned around and saw a little milk baby with a delicate appearance, accompanied by a young lady. Both of them looked uneasy.

When he looked around again, he saw a huge black wolf standing next to the little girl.

The Black Wolf King is a movable type sign. When you see it, you will know that Princess Funing is here even if you don't recognize Shen Ningning.

The head shopkeeper quickly calmed down his anger and ran to Shen Ningning, greeting and apologizing.

"Your Highness Princess, please don't get me wrong. We are not bullying this family, but their old man Xu promised me to help me with work. When it was time to work, he ran away."

Shen Ningning frowned, took away the so-called drawing paper certificate from the shopkeeper with her little hand, and looked at it twice.

It turned out that the shopkeeper was a carpentry owner in the nearby town of Guangyang.

After Xu Jingxi injured his arm, the Xu family temporarily had no source of income.

Grandpa Xu deposited all the money sent by Lu Shaoyuan in a bank account, intending to use it as money for Xu Jingxi to marry and build a house in the future.

Therefore, the life of the grandfather and grandson is still as poor as before.

In order to take care of Xu Jingxi, Grandpa Xu was introduced by the villagers and took a carpentry job from Guangyang Town that others did not dare to take.

The job was to go to a house and remove some unnecessary wooden beams.

No one among the carpenters in the town dared to take the job. Only Grandpa Xu saw the high remuneration offered by the shopkeeper and accepted it on a whim.

The carpentry shop owner held hands with Shen Ningning and complained: "Your Highness, this old man went there once, but then he came back and said he didn't want to go."

"But my construction period is already ready to be handed over. I was waiting for the wood to be demolished in this house so that the people who entrusted me could hand over the work. As a result, old man Xu hid from me for three days. Your Highness, please tell me, this Is it okay if I don’t work?”

Shen Ningning has always been fair, but after hearing this, she felt that what Grandpa Xu did was wrong.

However, Grandpa Xu is not such an irresponsible person.

Ye Changyi glanced at the address of the house on the deed.

Suddenly he was surprised: "Ah! It's actually the red-tiled mansion on Sheliang Mountain?"

Shen Ningning looked at her: "Do you know where it is?"

"I've heard that it's a haunted house!"

After Ye Changyi said that, she put her hands on her hips and glared at the carpentry shopkeeper: "No wonder others don't dare to pick him up. How dare you urge Grandpa Xu to go to a place like that where people will die?"

The carpenter shopkeeper coughed slightly and said with a troubled expression: "It is said that a brave man will be rewarded with a big reward. I have already offered the price, and Old Man Xu has accepted it again. He can't help but go, right?"

At this moment, Xu Jingxi's cold voice came from the yard.

"My grandpa can't go. When he came back last time, he was so frightened that he had a high fever. So, I went for him."

Shen Ningning saw Xu Jingxi's handsome and slender figure walking out of the house.

The carpenter shopkeeper was afraid that he would regret it: "This is what you said! I settled the banknote for you in advance, you can't regret it again!"

With that said, he hurriedly put the banknote into Xu Jingxi's hand.

However, he ran away with the people, and did not forget to turn around and shout all the way: "You must go! You will come back after demolishing the wooden beams in three days!"

Ye Changyi stamped her feet angrily when she saw them running so fast.

"I've made it clear that I'm bullying people, but what can I do if I don't go?"

However, when she turned around, she saw that Xu Jingxi had already gone to the yard to get tools.

Like getting ready to go now.

Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes: "Are you really going?"

Ye Changyi was also surprised: "Xu Jingxi, you are crazy. Many people died in that place. It used to be a mass grave, but later it was bought and a house was built, but the whole family was seriously injured."

"After they moved away, they invited many carpenters and craftsmen to go in and dig the foundation, but they all died! You should know why your grandfather was so frightened."

Shen Ningning didn't listen and still didn't know, was there such a terrifying place in this world?

Is there really a ghost?

If so, why hasn't her mother visited her? The little guy didn't believe it.

Xu Jingxi was loading up his tools, and he said in a calm tone: "It doesn't matter, I am determined."

He said such words seriously, which made people laugh.

Shen Ningning looked at him: "Well, then let's go with you! More people, more people to take care of you, so you won't be afraid."

"Us?!" Ye Changyi raised her voice and pointed at herself: "You don't include me, do you?"

Shen Ningning blinked and looked at her: "You said you liked playing with me, are you going to back down now?"

Ye Changyi was about to cry but had no tears: "But, but, that is a big red-tiled mansion! I heard that I went to the eminent monk before and wanted to be saved, but when I came back, I was frightened and went crazy."

Shen Ningning patted the Black Wolf King on the head: "What are you afraid of? We have wolves. No matter what evil heretics there are, they can't hurt us!"

The little guy's face was filled with innocence and excitement. The Black Wolf King sat up straight and puffed out his chest slightly.

Ye Changyi had no choice but to sigh: "Okay, then I'll go with you, but I have to bring ten guards with me!"

It's always good to have something just in case.

Xu Jingxi wanted to persuade the two of them to stay, but when he saw Shen Ningning's curious face, he simply stopped.

Before leaving, Xu Jingxi asked her neighbors to take care of Grandpa Xu for half a day and come back at dawn tomorrow.

When the neighbors heard that he was going to spend the night in the red-tiled mansion, they all shook their heads and sighed——

"This poor child may never come back. Life is really forcing him to do that."

Sheliang Mountain is located east of the capital. It was a mass grave a long time ago. Later, the court bulldozed the mass grave in order to acquire land for farming.

But whatever was planted in that land died, so it became barren again.

Until several families pooled their money and built several large houses there together. They originally wanted to live a good life, but then there was internal fighting, and family members killed each other, causing heavy casualties.

After this happened, several craftsmen came to the city to bulldoze the house and rebuild it, but they also died inside.

There are also a few people who escaped from the adventure and they all went crazy. People who have been there and come back alive basically say that there are ghosts inside, or a group of ghosts!

Therefore, I have heard that the craftsmen of the red-tiled mansion will never take orders from them again.

Only Grandpa Xu accepted this commission for the sake of livelihood.

It was almost evening when Shen Ningning and the others arrived at the foot of Sheliang Mountain.

The dusk is tilted, and the setting sun is like blood, splashing across the dark mountains. The autumn wind blows, and the leaves in the mountains make a clear rustling sound.

Ye Changyi rubbed her shoulders and hid behind Shen Ningning with some fear.

"It's getting dark. Are we sure we're going up the mountain now? It's so dark that it's hard to start work, right? Why don't we come back early tomorrow morning?"

Xu Jingxi shook her head and patted the baggage on her back: "I brought a lot of candles with me, so I'm safe."

Ye Changyi complained endlessly: "Then what shall we eat?"

Shen Ningning pointed decisively at the food box held by the guard.

"Look! The food we just brought is just right for use. It's enough for us to eat until tomorrow, hehe!"

Seeing their similar calmness, Ye Changyi screamed in her heart.

Xu Jingxi and Shen Ningning have such a tacit understanding as good brothers and sisters! Aren't they both afraid?

The deeper they walked into the mountains, the more they ran counter to the color of the sunset, until the sky turned gray and blue, and everyone could only see the outlines of shadows, but could not see anything clearly.

"We're here." Xu Jingxi pointed to the large village not far away, located in a flat field.

Shen Ningning and Ye Changyi looked up.

The red tile mansion, as the name suggests, has red bricks and pale walls.

The walls were mottled with marks as if they had been burned.

When I got closer, I saw countless black handprints, as if many people wanted to escape from here, but they couldn't get out of the red-tiled mansion even though they were holding on to the wall.

Ye Changyi was already trembling with fear.

"Ghost, ghost house, it must be a ghost house."

The Black Wolf King sniffed, but felt something was rather pungent.

It had a sensitive sense of smell, so Shen Ningning opened her little hands and cried out, "What a quiet place!"

When she shouted, the big black birds in the surrounding woods flapping their wings and flew up in shock.

Like black ghosts, screaming sharply, passing over the mountains above their heads.

Ye Changyi screamed in fright.

She finally calmed down, but the door of the red-tiled mansion in front of them was half open.

Ye Changyi's scalp suddenly felt numb.

"Wait a minute... wasn't this door still closed when we just came here? Which of you went in?"

She turned around and saw that everyone was there, but no one was near the door.

so……

Shen Ningning's soft voice was full of innocence: "You can open the door by yourself!"

Ye Changyi screamed and rolled her eyes in fear.
