[BL, MTL] He is coveted by monsters (Unlimited Flow)

Chapter 9: Encountering a Ghost (9)

　　Chu Xiyu quickly climbed down carefully while holding on to the coffin door, and looked around in panic. It looked like a huge ancient tomb, with dark and gloomy light, and strange yellow talismans hung on the surrounding walls, pulled by crimson threads. Ringed with bells.

　　From time to time, an unknown red liquid slowly flows down the wall.

　　There are many red sandalwood boxes around, and the mouths of the boxes are all wide open. They are filled with jewelry, gold and silver. The layout of the tomb is intricate, and there should be many inner chambers. It is enough to see from the exquisite walls and extremely luxurious layout. It shows the respect and attention paid by the tomb builders to the funeral of the deceased.

　　Why is he here?

　　He clearly remembered that he was in the woods.

　　Chu Xiyu's eyes trembled with fear. He took a few steps carefully in the dark light and shadow, and took a red candle on the wall to barely illuminate it.

　　He tried to find a way out and found that there were many stone doors in the inner room, but only one stone door was wide open, like a passage specially opened for Chu Xiyu to guide him out.

　　Chu Xiyu nervously walked into the narrow passage. The passage outside the stone door was lit with red candles. The candlelight swayed, and the light and shadow were strangely red.

　　He glanced at the red candles placed on the gold lamps on both sides, and felt more and more strange that these red candles were actually in pairs.

　　How come there are red candles everywhere in the cemetery of the dead.

　　Chu Xiyu couldn't help but quicken his pace. Only his footsteps could be heard in the silent passage. The further he walked out, the colder he felt.

　　Finally, he found the large outer door of the stone tomb. The pale moonlight outside the door shone on the ground through the door. As if he saw hope, he quickly ran out of the outer door with a rush of energy.

　　As he ran, a cold gust of wind blew the bell hanging on the wall with a red rope. The bell then swayed and made a cool sound.

　　"Jingle Bell."

　　...

　　Chu Xiyu's way back was actually easier than the way he came. He successfully walked out of the forest in less than five minutes.

　　As soon as we reached the roadside next to the woods, there was a taxi approaching.

　　He got out of the taxi and arrived at the trail near his home. He was scared and strange that it took him less than half an hour to get back home, and that was under the premise that something weird like that had happened.

　　Too strange.

　　Chu Xiyu quickened his pace. When passing by the reed marsh, the woman in red dress who had been looking forward to him timidly waved to him.

　　"How are you, beautiful brother? Have you found any clues?"

　　Chu Xiyu shook his head, frowning and looking a little worried.

　　No clues found.

　　I encountered a lot of strange things.

　　"Uuuuuuuuuuuuu It's okay, I know it's hard to find." The woman in the red dress said, "You're already great. Keep working hard tomorrow, okay."

　　Chu Xiyu nodded and returned home dejectedly.

　　There was still no one downstairs, and by this time grandma had gone upstairs to sleep.
