The dust particles rubbed against the palm of her hand.
She instantly pulled back her hand and opened her palm in front of her.
A blow of air. It was actually all dust (on her hand). Standing up straight, she looked around her carefully.
If it wasn’t for the sound of laughter coming out from the yard now and then, she would have thought she was lost. “This secluded place, how long since someone has been here?” Not only the place was located in a remote area, there was not a ray of candle light can be seen.
Using moonlight, she can also see weeds growing along the corners of the wall in front of the court. Desolate can be used to describe here. s.h.i.+fty-eyes, WuXin strode inside quietly.
At the front door, there was a big heavy lock hanging in the middle.
Upon touching it, not a bit of dust was found on the lock.
The reason should be because someone came into contact with it quite often. Looking at the uneven texture on the look, it obvious that it has been used for quite some years.
But doesn’t that also mean that the person held inside has been locked for a long time? Zhu WuXin gently pushed open the door a bit, wanting to look inside. In this quiet and eerie night, the door opened under her force and issued a “creak” sound.
The heavy ear-piercing sound was abrupt, and it gave her a fright to the point her back oozed cold sweat. Afraid to alert the people locked inside this courtyard. There was not a slightest movement from inside the courtyard, but like being caught in the throat by the sound of the door, the laughter disappeared in the vast darkness of the night. After a long moment to calm down, Zhu WuXin gathered her courage again and focused her gaze at the narrow s.p.a.ce between the door crack. But she haven’t have the time to clearly see inside when a ‘snap’ sound was heard.
A pair of hands landed heavily on Zhu WuXin’s shoulder. Zhu WuXin’s heart instantly went cold, like the bottom of a valley.
The hair on her body stood up, after frozen stiff for quite some time then did she turned her head back. Upon seeing clearly who was the incoming person, she screamed “AH!” out loud. Another pair of slender hands, forcefully covered her mouth the moment she screamed.
