I looked at the girl and wanted to rush over, but Tian Tian stopped me, shook his head, and said, "Don't go over there."

The Old Master Zeng, on the other hand, was scared stiff. He quickly ordered some people to save her and ran inside.

Ceng Xiaoqiang hugged the old man tightly and shouted to the workers beside him: "The roses are full of thorns, if we go in like this, we won't be able to get out. Take out a bamboo pole and let him drag us out or let us pull him out."

The workers who hadn't left immediately took a wooden stick from the side and handed it to the workers who were rolling in the roses.

From start to finish, no one paid any attention to the girl who was standing amidst the roses. I knew that they wouldn't be able to see her, but the girl acted as if she was watching a joke and watched as the workers pulled out the girl who had fallen among the roses.

The worker seemed to be scared silly, after coming out from the rose bush, he was in a daze.

However, he did not seem to be severely injured. There were only a lot of stabs on his body. However, the thorns were not big and he did not bleed.

Seeing that everyone was fine, Old Master Zeng immediately heaved a sigh of relief and arranged for the workers to send him back, not caring about us anymore.

After the others had left, the crushed roses in the rose bush slowly grew back to normal, just like they did during the day.

I held Tian Tian's hand tightly, and watched as the girl in the lotus color dress walked slowly among the roses. As she walked, those roses seemed to be extremely excited, and kept trembling uncontrollably.

But she ignored us, as if there were only roses in her eyes, and none of us dared to approach her, as we had seen the man fall inside.

"Is she a female ghost? The ghost lady who was raped and then killed by someone, who was buried under a rose, who was stained with blood and became one with the rose? " I lowered my head and looked at Tian Tian. I felt that it was inconvenient to ask this little girl about such a dark matter, so I turned to look at Ceng Xiaoqiang.

He looked at me with a surprised expression before shaking his head. "Why don't we dig for a corpse tomorrow?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman in the long dress immediately looked over. Her originally calm eyes flashed with mockery, then she collapsed into a clump of roses and disappeared.

"Alas —" I was confused, and tried to reach for the girl, but to no avail.

"I can't see what she is either, but she's not a ghost." Tian Tian took a deep breath and laid on the ground again, letting out two bugs.

But the insect would never be able to crawl inside the rose bush. Tian Tian kept on urging the insect with creaking noises, and the rose branch beside the flower bush seemed to come to life as he pierced the thorns on his body with the two worms.

Tian Tian immediately summoned back the bugs and shook his head: "That is her territory, not even the bugs can enter."

"It doesn't seem to be malicious." Ceng Xiaoqiang looked at the rose bushes, and said to me in a deep voice: "This flower bush has been planted for many years, and was managed by Uncle Chen, even if others fell in, he would not fall in, this is a little strange, but she did not take my life, so it shouldn't be a big deal."

According to Ceng Xiaoqiang, he had been working here for many years.

"Could it be that he is blaming himself for not being very diligent in watering and fertilizer recently?" Liu San immediately thought of the most likely reason.

Ceng Xiaoqiang just stared at him, and helplessly turned to leave.

Due to what happened tonight, the Old Master Zeng couple didn't have the mood to check on my account. Originally, I was curious about the young lady in the long dress, but even Tian Tian couldn't tell what she was, I could only wait for the two with good eyesight to come.

As Liu San sent us back, he kept asking Li Xiaoyan where he had been recently and why didn't he let it out to play. In the future, it would probably be difficult for us to eat such delicious roasted chicken.

I randomly replied a few times, but my mind was filled with the girl standing in the middle of the rose bush.

After returning home, he was scolded by my parents. He just ran around the house with a little doll all day and never called back when he wasn't at home. It would be better if Ceng Xiaoqiang sent them a message to report his safety.

Only now did I know that Ceng Xiaoqiang had also sent a message to my parents saying that he was safe. However, I was very concerned about Yang Wei at the time, and was afraid that I wouldn't be able to hide the matter once I made a phone call, so I was scolded repeatedly.

After giving Tian Tian a bath, she decided to sleep on the same bed as me since Hu Guyue isn't here.

I was holding my old storybook and telling her a truly beautiful story. Just when I wanted to try my best to pull her back from Gu Zu's lethargy, I received a call from Ceng Xiaoqiang.

He spoke anxiously on the phone: "I told Liu San to pick you up. You come over immediately, something happened to Uncle Chen."

The moment I heard that something had happened to Uncle Chen, the rose bush that flashed past my eyes, my heart tightened, I immediately donned my clothes, greeted my parents, and helped Tian Tian put on his jacket, then anxiously walked out.

He knew things wouldn't be this simple. It couldn't be that he was going to get stabbed in a flower bush because he wasn't watering enough? This was definitely not something that a quiet girl like the Lotus Root Starlight Dress could do.

Not long after I left the house, Liu San's car drove over quickly. With a quick brake, the car came to a stop and said to me: "Hurry!"

On the way, I found out that Liu San was worried about Li Xiaoyan, and asked if I had any results, so I went back to ask Ceng Xiaoqiang, wanting to get some information from him.

In the end, before Ceng Xiaoqiang could even finish blowing a bottle of alcohol, he heard a scream coming from the dorm. Liu San said that he would know when he had heard that voice after going in, and was extremely happy like a cat whose tail has been stepped on. Just listening to that sound caused people to feel pain.

When Ceng Xiaoqiang heard that voice, he knew that something was wrong. He immediately brought Liu San to the dorm room, but when they got there, they saw that Uncle Chen was rolling on the floor of the dorm, yelling non-stop.

Ceng Xiaoqiang could be considered to have seen the world, he immediately took out his phone and called for an ambulance, but just as he dialed the number, he saw that there was something moving inside Uncle Chen's body, especially the small wound that had been pricked by the flower thorns, it seemed that there were countless of worms wriggling within.

He immediately hung up the phone, knowing that this matter cannot be resolved by going to the hospital, he quickly asked Liu San to come and fetch me, then went to the rose bushes.

When I heard that Ceng Xiaoqiang had gone to the rose bushes alone, I thought about how calm and quiet she was and immediately called for the four little girls to bring me to the rose bushes. I couldn't care less about sitting in Liu San's car.

I originally thought that it would at most be a small wound or something like that. Otherwise, Ceng Xiaoqiang wouldn't have let Liu San come and pick me up.

But he never thought that Ceng Xiaoqiang would actually go to the rose grove by himself. That girl didn't even know what it was and he still dared to look for her.

"Don't be afraid, even if you don't know what she is, I'll release the beetle and eat that flower bush to see where she's hiding." Seeing me so nervous, Tian Tian smiled as he held my arm.

Touching her face, I smiled, knowing she was trying to comfort me.

By the rose bush, Little Four was exhausted, and they knew I was in a hurry, so they walked quickly and consumed a lot.

When I took them back, I realised that Ceng Xiaoqiang was already in the middle of the rose grove. Even after hearing that I had come, I was still walking in, and following him in, the rose garden parted to give way to him.

The girl dressed in the lotus color dress was standing under the back of the bamboo, smiling at Ceng Xiaoqiang. She extended a hand towards him, waiting for him to come closer.

I told Tian Tian to stand by the side of the road without moving, took out his peach wood sword and ran over, while shouting his name.

But no matter how much I shouted, Ceng Xiaoqiang seemed to be unable to hear anything as he walked step by step towards the rosebush.

I walked over to the rosebushes. The roses were like a group of awaking snakes, waving their flowers at me with a swishing sound.

I took in a deep breath and stepped on the rose. The rose pricked my body and an endless pain came from it. In the blink of an eye, the rose in front of me had grown to the height of a person. I was instantly submerged in the middle of the rose.

"You can go." A light voice came from the rose bush.

"Ceng Xiaoqiang!" I know it was that girl, but I didn't have the heart to care about her as I loudly shouted Ceng Xiaoqiang's name.

I was too careless with this matter. I had always thought that not all ghosts and all spirits in this world were bad, just like how Li Xiaoyan and the rest were all warm and gentle, like the tree spirits.

But I didn't expect that such a beautiful thing like this rose would be so fierce.

Stepping on the rose branch, I felt the thickened thorns pierce through the soles of my shoes. I continued to wave my peachwood sword as I walked deeper.
