Chapter 232: Chapter 232: Thought it was Haunted

Furthermore, since there was an underground river, it meant that on their way back, they could avoid the dangerous jungle and retreat directly through the underground river.

All they needed to do now was to find the map of Fubo City within the City Lord’s Mansion, and everything would fall into place.

This discovery allowed the two of them to reassess their goals; their taut nerves finally began to relax.

What Bai Sasa saw when she came out with a stack of bowls and plates was a man and a woman smiling at each other by the well under the moonlight.

In the past, such a scene would have indeed been poetic and charming, making one blush and feel embarrassed.

However, their current location was an ancient mansion of a thousand years, and these two people smiling at each other beside the eerie well looked odd no matter how one saw it, making Bai Sasa’s hairs stand on end immediately.

Could they... be possessed?

The children’s first reaction was to hide behind the Mosquito-eating Plant, who feared neither heaven nor earth.

"?" Mosquito-eating Plant.

When Bai Junjun and Li Wenli heard the noise and turned around, they saw several children with expressions of terror on their faces.

They first thought there was an intruder in the courtyard, but after scanning the surroundings, they found nothing out of the ordinary.

"What’s wrong?" Bai Junjun asked, puzzled.

Li Wenli also walked over and patted the children’s heads, "Do you need help?"

"Uh?" Feeling the warmth of Li Wenli’s palm, Bai Sasa tried to stay calm and shook her head.

Bai Junjun thought that the children were scared of the dry well in the courtyard.

After all, ancient wells in courtyards have always been associated with drownings and wronged spirits, especially in this ancient mansion of a thousand years. It was inevitable for the children to be afraid, so she explained reassuringly, "Don’t worry, although the well looks scary, there’s really nothing in it, and the water is drinkable."

Bai Sasa, seeing that her older sister and Brother Wenli were both as usual with no differences, mustered the courage to bring out the plates for washing.

Yet, as she walked, she couldn’t help but inwardly criticize her sister and Brother Wenli to stop behaving like that. Didn’t they know it was terrifyng?

At that moment, Xiao Shan and Bai Lingyu were also feeling guilty and dared not speak.

Seeing the children act strangely, Li Wenli guessed they were scared of ghosts and smilingly said, "If you do nothing wrong, you don’t fear the knock at the door. As long as you live with integrity, you will never have to fear those superstitious beliefs."

The people from The Apocalypse assert their toughness just like that.

However, the local children didn’t think the same way, but they also realized they had made a blunder. Once Bai Junjun and Li Wenli reassured them, everyone nodded vaguely to indicate their understanding.

Once the matter was glossed over, the group of five split into two teams.

The Bai sisters took turns drawing water and washing dishes, while the three gentlemen started making a fire in the corridor for cooking.

They dared not use anything other than wood from the old stuff inside, so they simply cooked in the corridor, which also had better ventilation.

As Bai Sasa washed the dishes, she stealthily watched Bai Junjun.

Becoming uncomfortable under the gaze, Bai Junjun finally put down what she was doing, "I say, Miss Bai Sasa, what exactly do you want to ask?"

"Ahem..." Bai Sasa shook her head.

She was just startled by the image of her older sister and Brother Wenli smiling at each other earlier, which was something that could never have happened in the past.

She had only ever seen her sister give Brother Wenli the cold shoulder, a stern face, or a scowl, but never a smile.

Could this be true affection born from shared hardships?

Bai Sasa silently glanced at her older sister, "Sister Jun, what do you think about Brother Wenli?"

"What do you mean ’what do I think’?" Bai Junjun was clueless.

"Ahem, I mean, what do you think of his character?"

"He’s a formidable opponent," Bai Junjun responded succinctly.
