Quick Travel: Please hold on to the villain Black Moonlight script
Chapter 703 I became famous for catching ghosts in a variety show 24
But he could not confirm his guess with the people in Mujia Village, so he turned and stared at Zhao Xuan, waiting for him to explain it to him.
Zhao Xuan smiled unchanged, "I was planning to go out, but now there is a landslide and the village chief refuses to clear the road. Why don't we go to my mother-in-law's house tonight and have a meal?"
Yu Zhengqiu frowned slightly, "?"
He didn't understand why Zhao Xuan suddenly changed the subject so quickly?
"My mother-in-law looks older than anyone in the village. I guess she must be a rare elderly person with a long life in the village..." Zhao Xuan muttered to himself, and suddenly stopped.
He smiled at Yu Zhengqiu, then in a good mood he walked into the hall, pulled a chair, went outside, sat down, and then basked in the sun with his eyes closed.
Yu Zhengqiu was stunned for a moment at first, not understanding his behavior, and then thought about what Zhao Xuan said...
He is older than the village.
A very old man?
Free food...
He knew that eating for free was just an excuse. He wanted to take the opportunity to pry open his mother-in-law's mouth and get the truth from her!
We are all from the same village. My mother-in-law is so old, if something really happened, there is no way she would not know about it!
Yu Zhengqiu understood Zhao Xuan's intention and nodded subconsciously, "Okay."
"?"
Zhao Xuan had not expected Yu Zhengqiu to go with him. The greatest progress they had made so far was probably the conversation they had while eating cucumbers together in the morning...
Yu Zhengqiu probably doesn't trust him that much now, so the possibility of him choosing to go to the old woman's house with him is not high.
Unexpectedly, Yu Zhengqiu suddenly agreed when he hadn't expected it.
Zhao Xuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "It seems that we have to go there earlier, otherwise mother-in-law will suddenly have to cook three meals and I'm afraid she will be too busy to handle it."
He was just sitting here doing nothing, and he couldn't fall asleep. He had already taken a nap in the morning, so he was in good spirits now.
Yu Zhengqiu didn't refuse, but just looked at Zhao Xuan for a while longer, "...Okay."
Before leaving, Zhao Xuan specifically told Wang Chenhan to ask the village chief and others to prepare two less meals in the evening as they would not be back for dinner.
Wang Chenhan was stunned, "Then... where are you going to eat?"
In his opinion, the village became more dangerous at night than during the day!
Although it seems that Zhao Xuan is safer than them and has the ability to protect himself, but... he doesn't feel safe when Zhao Xuan is not around!
"Going to a kind mother-in-law's house. By the way, let everyone go back to their rooms tonight before going to bed..." Zhao Xuan told Wang Chenhan about the peach wood branches in his room and asked him to distribute them and make sure they were released on the door of every occupied room.
Wang Chenhan was stunned for a while.
The kind mother-in-law’s house?
When did Brother Zhao meet my mother-in-law?
Many questions were on the tip of his tongue, but he didn't ask them until the end and could only nod in agreement.
Zhao Xuan finished what he had to say, and pulled Yu Zhengqiu's sleeve and walked out together...
He noticed that Yu Zhengqiu frowned slightly when he grabbed his sleeve, but he pretended not to know and continued to walk out holding his sleeve.

"Strange. There was no rain and no earthquake last night. Why did a landslide suddenly occur?" The assistant director looked puzzled.
The person who shared the room with the assistant director was the director's assistant, a boy, only 28 years old, still quite young. However, no matter how young he was, it was useless in front of ghosts.
After all, ghosts float, and it’s not like they’re being chased by people, so being young can be a bit of an advantage.
The director's assistant sighed, "I don't know. Ever since we came to this village, nothing has gone well. People have died, landslides have occurred, and there is no signal on our cell phones. I don't know when people outside will notice that we have lost contact!"
"Stop talking and go to sleep." The assistant director pulled the quilt hard to cover his head.
People used to say that workers don’t deserve to rest and complain that they don’t have time to rest. But now, all they have left is sleep. Apart from sleeping, there are no other activities.
"Director, I... suddenly discovered a problem. There seem to be no children in the village..." The assistant always felt that the village where he lived was too noisy. From time to time, the sound of children playing could be heard from the box downstairs...
Now that I've arrived at this remote mountain village, a series of strange things have happened and I feel that noise is actually quite good...
Noisy means popular, unlike now, where it is so quiet that makes people feel creepy and their backs go cold.
The assistant director didn't understand what the assistant meant for a moment, and said impatiently, "What child? If you're not married, you definitely can't have children!"
He thought the assistants referred to the three siblings of the Mu family.
"No, I couldn't sleep this morning so I went out for a walk and found that except for the village chief's house, there didn't seem to be any children playing in other houses..."
The more the assistant spoke, the colder the back of his neck became. Children in big cities can't even be kept at home with televisions and toys, so how could children in rural areas possibly stay idle?
Even if they were locked up, it's impossible that there wasn't a single child to be seen in the entire village!
The assistant director finally reacted. It was terrifying to think about it. Some things are really... more terrifying the more you think about them.

When Zhao Xuan and Yu Zhengqiu came to the old woman's house again, this time their purpose was clear and they came in a swaggering manner, without deliberately concealing their intention to go to the old woman's house.
The door of the house was closed, and the old house had several obvious cracks. As long as strong winds and heavy rains came, the house would collapse completely in the next second and become a ruin.
It really makes me worry every time I see it.
Yu Zhengqiu was just about to ask Zhao Xuan if he wanted to give up and come later.
Zhao Xuan knocked on the door without saying a word. The knock was quite loud and not polite at all.
Zhao Xuan knocked three times and then stopped, waiting patiently. After a while, he heard the sound of footsteps, one heavy and one light.
The door is an old-fashioned wooden door with a bolt inside. The sound of pulling out the bolt can be heard through the door.
The old woman's expression didn't change obviously, she just gave me a look that said "Why are you here again?" Her heavy and slow movements always made it hard for people to control themselves and look at her twice.
"Mother-in-law, I want to come to your house for dinner, is that okay?" Zhao Xuan smiled and noticed that the hall was a little damp, and there were some firewood piled against the wall...
Some are quite large and need to be split before they can be burned.
The old woman stared at Zhao Xuan for a moment and said, "I don't have any big fish or meat here, only vegetables and plain rice."
The implication is that they won't be able to eat it.
Zhao Xuan curled his lips. If there was no refusal, there would be a chance.
"It's okay, I just like to eat vegetables." He said as he carried the pile of wet firewood out, "Your firewood is all wet. If you don't take it out to dry, you won't be able to burn it later!"
Seeing this, the old woman did not stop it. She just silently picked up the bamboo basket and went to the vegetable garden again to pick the other two vegetables.
Zhao Xuan took out another hatchet and chopped the wood skillfully before asking, "Your place is remote and there is no school. Young people cannot go to school and cannot go out to work. It's normal for them not to want to go out. But how come you can't even see children?"
