The thumps suddenly disappeared, and there was some dim light coming from the fifth floor. The wooden stairs looked a little narrow and dilapidated, and there was a faint smell of decay.
There was no movement at all above. The dim light gave off an eerie and cold feeling.
Chi Shuyan didn’t hesitate for long. She took the candle and went up to the fifth floor.
When she reached the fifth floor, Chi Shuyan looked around coldly and saw that there was no one there, and the floor was lit up by some candles on a table.
Because of the drawings downstairs, her attention was all on the walls. Unfortunately, after searching seriously for a long time, she didn’t see any more drawings.
Chi Shuyan didn’t plan to waste time on the fifth floor, and was about to go to the sixth floor. The entire temple was only made up of six floors, and the ‘thing’ that had been making noise just now was probably on the top floor.
Chi Shuyan regretted not recalling the names of everyone in the village back then. Soon, she saw the name ‘Ge Chunhua’ on another memorial tablet, and there was a bright red handprint on it.
Chi Shuyan was stunned when she saw the name. She immediately took out her phone and dialed Wu Haoming’s number. As soon as the call went through, she hurriedly asked in a low voice, “I asked you to investigate the Xu son’s family, right? Do you remember his mother’s name?”
On the other side, Wu Haoming was just about to welcome in Ruan Shenglin and the others, who had rushed over, when he received a call from Master Chi. Seeing Master Chi suddenly call him, Wu Haoming immediately thought of the Invisibility Talisman which his sister-in-law had used before. He was so excited that he had long forgotten that she had gone to the temple. Thinking of the Invisibility Talisman, he couldn’t suppress the excitement in his heart. He said excitedly, “Sister… Sister-in-law, when are you coming back? When you come back, can you give me an Invisibility Talisman?
“By the way, Sister-in-law, Film Emperor Ruan and the others just came; they’re looking for you!”
Wu Haoming chattered on the other end, but Chi Shuyan didn’t have time to talk nonsense with him. If it were any other time, she might still be in the mood, but she was in the temple now, and the Invisibility Talisman only had a half-hour time limit. She had to leave the temple in half an hour. She didn’t reply to Wu Haoming, but repeated her question. “What is the Xu son’s mother’s name? Is it Ge Chunhua? Just answer my question. There’s no time to talk nonsense, I’m still in the temple!”
Only then did Wu Haoming remember that Master Chi had gone to the temple tonight. No matter how much he coveted the Invisibility Talisman, he didn’t dare disturb her official business. He immediately replied, “Yes, Sister-in-law. His mother is indeed called Ge Chunhua. What’s wrong? Sister-in-law, is there anything else? You can ask me.”
In fact, he was quite curious about what Master Chi had seen at the temple and what danger she had encountered. However, when he heard Master Chi’s energetic voice on the phone, Wu Haoming sighed with relief. He could finally reassure Director Feng.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door. Wu Haoming opened the door while he was still on the phone. When he saw that it was Film Emperor Ruan, Yang Kun, and Xu Tong, he was stumped. He pulled the phone away from his ear and hurriedly said, “Film Emperor Ruan, Manager Yang, Sister-in-law isn’t back yet!”
After receiving confirmation from Wu Haoming, Chi Shuyan immediately hung up. She walked over and picked up Xu Jianmin and Ge Chunhua’s memorial tablets one after another for a serious look. Could it be that he and his mother had long died back then, and hadn’t left the village?
But how did the filial son of the Xu family and his terminally ill mother die?
What happened to the Xu family back then?
