I followed Wu Ji and walked around the whole villa, but didn't find anything special.

Furthermore, Wu Ji said that the villa's location and layout were pretty normal, it couldn't be considered as top grade feng shui, but it shouldn't be so bad.

When we got back to the living room, the driver was still waiting at the door. When he saw us going downstairs, he immediately came over and asked, "Mage, did you find anything?"

Wu Ji shook his head: "No."

"That's strange." After the driver heard Wu Ji's words, he could not help but have a doubtful look in his eyes.

They probably thought that we didn't have any real ability, so they didn't see anything wrong with this house.

Although Wu Ji didn't say anything, I was still a little unhappy.

"All the things you said just now happened at night? Did something strange happen during the day? " I asked coldly.

The driver tilted his head and thought for a while. "During the day, I don't think so, but the family of three said that they found something and it disappeared without a reason. They didn't know when it suddenly popped up again, so it seemed like it happened during the day or at night."

Wu Ji said as he gave a shallow nod of his head, "I will stay here for the night."

Wu Ji was probably talking to the driver, but when he spoke, he looked at me.

Before the driver could say anything, Wu Ji said to me: "Someone will send you back first."

"That won't do, I just happened to be resting tomorrow, so I'll stay here with you tonight to see what exactly is causing the ruckus." Although I know that Wu Ji is capable, I clearly knew that there was a ghost here that kept him here by himself for the entire night. Not only was I worried, I felt that it wasn't loyal enough.

Furthermore, since he has come to look for me, perhaps it is because he needs me, but perhaps it is just because he is too embarrassed to speak of it.

And when I said I would stay with him, he did not object to my presence, as if he had expected me to say so.

But when the driver heard that we were going to stay here tonight, he asked in surprise, "Are you two really going to stay here tonight? Are you not afraid that there really is something here? "

When I heard this, I couldn't help but laugh. "Aren't you looking for us to catch ghosts? If such a small matter scared us away, then you can invite someone else."

When the driver heard this, he smiled in embarrassment, "That's not what I meant. It's just that I'm a bit worried seeing that the two of you are so young."

"Then you stay too." I smiled as I looked at him.

"No, no, no, I have something to do tonight. I really don't know about this, but I will tell the butler that he might send someone else over. Look at my thin limbs, they won't be of much help if I stay." Saying that, he smiled in embarrassment.

We were clearly afraid of ghosts, yet he still spoke in such a dignified manner. Our hearts were as clear as a mirror, but we didn't expose him.

Afterwards, the driver told the old master that we would be staying at the mansion, and when he said that he would send someone over, Wu Ji emphasized that it would be better if it was a boy.

The driver's mouth twitched as he heard the two words, "This year, finding a child seems to be even harder than finding a three-legged toad."

"It's fine even if he isn't a boy, as long as he has a good physique." I know in my heart why Wu Ji asked for this, so I added on the side.

Only then did the driver nod and say, "There are plenty of men with good physiques, this is easy to find!"

"By the way, bring me some food as well. It's fine as long as I have some pizza and cola for the fried chicken burger." I felt a little hungry after tossing and turning all the way without eating, so I added immediately.

An hour or so later, the owner of the house sent five burly men in black suits, one of whom was carrying some fried chicken and hamburgers and chips or something, which he said was arranged by the butler.

Later on, I found out that these people were all bodyguards of the owner of the house. They usually follow the owner of the house, and they were sent here because of special circumstances today. Each of them were practitioners, and one of them even had a ten centimeter wound on his left cheek.

"What do the mages need us to do?" Knife-scarred Man asked, it seemed like the leader was one of them.

"No need for now. You can stay on the first floor as you wish." Wu Ji only glanced at a few people before replying a little coldly and politely.

I can roughly guess the reason why Wu Ji called these few people here, it was only to make use of their yang energy to deal with or suppress the thing when he was sure that the mansion was truly dangerous.

It was still early in the night when I sat at the side eating. Wu Ji was resting on the sofa at the side while the Knife-scarred Man sat beside me. From time to time, he would look at the time and vigilantly watch the surroundings, giving me the feeling that he was a cautious hawk who was constantly paying attention to the movements of his surroundings.

In the entire room, there was only the sound of me eating and the sounds of the four playing poker. Wu Ji and Knife-scarred Man were so quiet that it seemed like they were melting into the air.

Because I was already used to Wu Ji's quietness, I didn't feel anything. Sometimes, when we were alone, when he didn't speak, I wouldn't speak either. It wasn't awkward for the two of us to think about their own things.

But the Knife-scarred Man was sitting right next to me, with a straight face, like a tower standing at one side, which made me feel a little awkward, so I found a topic to talk to him about.

"Do you want to have some too? I haven't touched this before." I pushed the untouched hamburger fried chicken toward him.

"No, thank you." He turned his head and glanced at me. His words were the same as they sounded, with a straight and cold look.

However, Wu Ji was cold and proud, and was unwilling to care about it. He was also a bit lazy and cold, but this Knife-scarred Man's cold was really cold, and it was difficult for people to continue after he finished speaking.

"Ugh …" You know what's wrong with this house? " I asked tentatively, thinking that if there really was a ghost at night and scared these few people, Wu Ji and I would have to split our focus to take care of them.

"Understood, haunted." Knife-scarred Man said very directly.

"Then aren't you afraid?" I asked curiously.

I feel that even if one has extraordinary skills, once they meet with an unknown domain, especially when these are things that everyone has heard about but not seen personally, they would feel fear or awe for them.

"Even if there really are ghosts in this world, they should be the ones who are afraid of people, not people who are afraid of them!" Knife-scarred Man paused for a moment before speaking.

When I heard this, I couldn't help but laugh. It really did look like this, because the scariest thing in this world would always be the humans themselves. No matter what kind of ferocious beast or god it was, in the end, it wasn't as scary as humans.

Therefore, humans were the rulers of this world, and not the other beasts and ghosts.

"May I ask where the wound on your face came from?" I asked thoughtfully.

Hearing that, he raised his hand to touch the scar. "I was injured by a drug dealer."

"A drug dealer?" I started.

After talking for a while more, I found out that Knife-scarred Man had been a soldier before. Once, when he was cooperating with the police to destroy the old nest of the drug dealers, he was accidentally injured by a drug dealers who jumped off the wall due to the anxiety of one of the dogs.

Later on, he was seriously injured due to an accident. Although he looked fine on the surface after he recovered, in order to not cause any trouble for the organization, he voluntarily applied to be discharged from the army. After leaving the army, a friend introduced him to his current job as a personal bodyguard.

When I learned of his deeds, I immediately felt some admiration for him.

Later, after I had eaten and drunk my fill, I lay down on the sofa to rest. I thought that once it was night and I didn't know what was going to happen, maybe I wouldn't be able to sleep at all, so I took the opportunity to rest.

Because they were in a strange place, it was hard to sleep soundly. Even when they were asleep, they would always feel half asleep and half awake, a muddleheaded feeling.

Then I suddenly heard a woman scream and was startled awake.

I suddenly sat up, my eyes opened wide as I asked what had happened. Knife-scarred Man, Wu Ji and the other four all looked at me strangely.

Wu Ji immediately walked over, and touched my forehead: "Nightmare dream? It's all sweat. "

When I looked at his palm, it was full of water stains. I touched my head and even my hair was a little sticky.

"I just heard a woman scream. She woke me up." I looked at Wu Ji and said.
