Chapter 884: Chapter 884 Curse_1

The hall originally had very few pieces of furniture, with a cabinet over one meter tall placed directly opposite the door.

Now this cabinet had been moved behind the door, on top of which sat a cloth doll full of needles. The doll wore a white dress stained with numerous bloodstains, looking particularly sinister.

Pushing open the door to the hall, the first thing to strike the eye was this eerie object.

Qiao Xiaomai was so frightened that goosebumps covered her entire body, her heartbeat suddenly skyrocketed, thumping loudly like a drum.

She raised her hand to pat her chest and took several deep breaths, then slowly began to back away.

When they moved away, not everything from the house had been taken; she glimpsed, in the corner of her eye, a wooden stick as thick as a baby’s arm under the shed. She slowly walked over and picked up the stick.

With the stick in hand, she looked around and saw nothing unusual.

She bit her lip, hesitated for a long while, but still took a slow step toward the hall.

The ten-plus-meter journey took almost as long as burning a stick of incense before she stood at the doorway of the hall again. Prepared this time, she noticed even more.

The puppet, over a foot tall, had been nailed onto the cabinet, and behind the cabinet, a deep pit had appeared.

The once flat ground of the hall had been dug up, just like the time she had dug up the ground, not only exposing the earth but also the foundations beneath.

The top of the secret tunnel was revealed.

The hall originally had three rooms, which now were connected, and the beds inside had vanished without a trace.

The dug-up soil had also disappeared.

The entire hall had become a deep pit, except for a small patch of ground by the door where the cabinet stood; the rest had been excavated, revealing the bare secret tunnel top.

After taking in the situation in the hall, Qiao Xiaomai’s peach blossom eyes were wide open.

To dig such a huge pit in the three-room hall without the neighbors on either side noticing was extraordinary.

Chen Guilan even wanted to ask her to buy the courtyard.

A master, it must have been the work of a master.

And when had this happened?

She examined the pit closely; the earth at its edge was dry, indicating it had been some time.

Biting her lip, she raised the stick in her hand and swept the puppet to the ground with force.

She found two small sticks and carefully examined the puppet by pinching it between them.

Her name and birthdate were written on the back of the puppet, marking it as the source of her curse.

Understanding this, she ground her teeth.

There was no doubt, it had to be the work of Cen Hong and Sun Junyan.

Definitely!

After some thought, she took out a sack from her space and put the doll inside.

She then locked the door to the hall and left the courtyard.

Mounting the ox cart, she hurriedly sped toward the manor; the lethargic ox was whipped into running like a stallion.

Tong Sanlang was still asleep at this time, so she went to find Fan Linong.

Fan Linong and his people lived in a large courtyard next to the manor. She stopped the ox cart and went straight into the courtyard.

Fan Linong was practicing swordplay in the courtyard. Seeing her rush over, he asked, “Miss Qiao, what’s the matter?”

“Uncle Fan, there’s something I need to talk to you about.” She gestured for Fan Linong to follow her to a secluded spot.

Fan Linong could send messages directly to Yang Wenxiao, and she needed to let Yang Wenxiao know about this.

She felt her personal safety was under serious threat; this little doll was truly full of malice.
