The head fell and was caught by Xi Yu.
"Disobedient children need discipline."
Having learned his lesson, Xi Yu sealed his head into the box again, and also bundled the body into three layers inside and three outside.
If there is no external help, I will not be able to break free even if the king of heaven comes.
With no hope of escape, the boy suddenly returned to his old ways and began to curse, trying to overwhelm Xi Yu with his momentum so that she would be frightened and open the box obediently.
Of course this is impossible.
After falling asleep to the yelling and cursing again, Xi Yu was surprised to find that she didn't feel noisy and slept very soundly.
A dreamless night.
People's ability to adapt is truly terrifying.
After eating two buns and a pack of spicy strips under the boy's eager eyes, Xi Yu put the packaging bag in the box with evil intentions before leaving.
There was still a roar of gongs and drums outside.
Only this time the villagers did not rehearse the dance.
The crowd was divided into two rows, one on the left and the other on the right, just like the bodyguards who had been on both sides of the chaebol lady in the TV series when she returned to the villa.
At the end of the line of bodyguards, Xi Yu observed the big bamboo cage in front of him in boredom.
It's square and square, and it won't be a problem to fit a tiger in depending on the size.
There was a lock left on it.
Xi Yu's right eyelid twitched, and just when she was thinking about the purpose of this, Chen Guxue appeared in front of her.
"Welcome to the goddess!"
Everyone shouted in unison and were so pious that they almost knelt down and kowtowed twice.
The goddess in their mouths was forcefully held by the two of them, with something blocked in her mouth.
Even so, these devout believers did not make any move.
When Chen Guxue was put in front of the cage and one of the villagers stepped forward to unlock it, Xi Yu finally found an opportunity, raised her knife and kicked the other villager away.
These believers moved.
They finally regained their sight and rushed towards Xi Yu with a clamor to capture her as a traitor.
Gu Qiao stood opposite Xi Yu.
As soon as the accident happened, he stood in front of the two of them, summoned his long sword and said sternly:
"You go first!"
Xi Yu did not move and summoned a long sword.
Under Gu Qiao's confused eyes, Xi Yu raised her head and motioned for him to look at Qin He, who was waving his hands not far away and trying to blend in with the villagers.
Noticing the gazes of the two people, as if he was afraid of being discovered by the people around him, Qin He roared even louder, almost becoming the leader of these villagers.
"..."
"What a waste." Gu Qiao commented.
Xi Yu has never seen such a difficult monster.
He is not afraid of knives or swords. Even if a big hole is poked in his chest and blood spurts out like a fountain, he can still get up and keep rushing forward.
The situation is not optimistic, so Xi Yu summons Li Yue and other ghosts to help.
Several fierce ghosts stood in front of them, and the people were so overwhelmed that they couldn't breathe.
The villagers began to hesitate in their movements, even hesitantly retreating.
Just when Xi Yu thought everything was over and was about to take the two of them to the mountain with Gu Qiao to take refuge, the high priest from before was helped to the stage again.
He holds a traditional whistle in his hand and blows it.
The sharp whistle sounded throughout the village, and the villagers became restless again and continued to rush forward desperately.
With Li Yue and other ghosts resisting, delaying them until they go up the mountain is not a problem.
Xi Yu turned to leave, but before taking two steps, he retreated back to the village.
The whistle just now served not only as a charge horn, but also as a summons like a beacon fire.
The black heads were all summoned by the whistle.
A rough estimate is that even without weapons, it is enough to crush several people to death.
"Wocao..." Gu Qiao couldn't help but marvel.
There was another whistle, and the dark crowd moved in response, swarming forward crazily.
Now neither the long sword nor the dagger can be used.
The small village was packed to the brim.
In the chaos, Xi Yu suffered several wounds on his head and face.
Under Li Guang's ability, he returned to normal.
Just when Xi Yu was helpless, the clear sky suddenly became dark.
Countless black shadows hovered in the sky, and then swooped down.
Xi Yu's vision went dark, and then he floated in the air dragged by the black mist.
Not one of them was left behind, and they all went up the mountain under the support of the black mist, and then returned to the familiar cave.
When he saw Li Rusong again, his thick eyebrows seemed to be knotted.
"you……"
"Mother Ye saved her. There was a riot at the foot of the mountain." Gu Qiao answered briefly, then turned back to see Chen Guxue.
Chen Guxue's face was horribly pale, as if she was extremely frightened, and she leaned into Xi Yu's arms, trembling all over.
"What's wrong?" Xi Yu reached out and hugged Chen Guxue, and then asked cautiously:
"Shouldn't the goddess appear before the celebration? Did they change their minds temporarily?"
This is the first time they have met since entering the village.
Chen Guxue shook her head fiercely, and then murmured about everything since entering the village:
"On the first night after entering the village, the priest found me, grabbed me, and said that I was the goddess of this celebration and needed to serve the river god."
"And the so-called serving the river god means being locked in a bamboo cage and then thrown into the river and drowned alive."
Chen Guxue stopped talking, and Xi Yu stopped asking, and kept patting each other on the back to express comfort.
"But why did Mrs. Ye save us? Doesn't she show up late at night?"
Xi Yu shook his head with a heavy expression:
"Maybe it was wrong from the beginning."
"Mother Ye never only appears at night. In the eyes of the villagers, she only appears at night. As for why she saves people..."
Xi Yu didn't say the second half of the guess, so he stood up and left the cave.
Not far outside the cave, stood a little girl dressed in black.
Xi Yu's eyes darkened, and he stood next to the girl and looked down the mountain.
The dark crowd eventually dispersed as the prey was captured.
And the black mist representing Ye Pozi is still hovering over the village.
"What are you looking at?" Xi Yu raised the corner of her mouth and took the initiative to talk.
The girl was stunned for a long time, and was pleasantly surprised when she realized that she was talking to herself.
"I'm looking at my house." The girl smiled, looking cute and happy. She raised her hand and pointed blankly: "Well, that's my house."
Xi Yu couldn't see clearly and didn't understand:
"Why are you watching here and not going home?"
"Of course I have to go home," the girl said seriously, "but not now."
"Why?"
"Because when I get home, I will be caught, put in a cage and thrown into the river!"
"..."
Seeing that Xi Yu didn't speak, the girl was bored and chatted with herself:
"The river is very dark, cold, and smelly. I don't like it there," she added at the end, "It's also very uncomfortable there."
Hearing this, Xi Yu's eyes moved slightly and he moved calmly:
"How do you know? Have you been in the river?"
"Of course!" the little girl said without thinking, "Those adults were very bad. They said they would give me sweets when I entered the cage, but they threw me into the river."
"I am angry."
The girl said, but she smiled, and her smile was particularly bright:
"So I killed them all."
