Listening to Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Ru's quarrel in the distance, Jiang Chen couldn't help but take a breath and admire the late Mr.
These two ladies are ruthless characters! Hundreds of lives can be lost over a trivial matter of jealousy!
Ordinary people can't afford to mess with one of them, but Mr. Xue actually dares to marry two. What a commendable courage!
Of course, Mr. Xue died under the peony flowers, kicked off his legs, and passed away, but he was simply free and easy. It's a pity that hundreds of lives in the Xue Mansion, as well as the unlucky ghosts in the nearby area who were cursed by nightmares, all became victims of the jealousy of the two ladies.
At this time, a burst of weird laughter suddenly sounded from deep in the dark clouds in the sky.
"Jie Jie Jie Jie Jie... Stop arguing, both of you! Let me tell you the truth, that evil baby is actually my son!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
After a brief silence, Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Ru screamed almost at the same time: "Ghost Master, what did you say?" "Fuck you!"
The huge skull formed by the gathering of dark clouds in mid-air opened its mouth and let out a triumphant laugh: "That bad old man Xue Yufeng has died a long time ago. Do you think he can still survive? Even if you squeeze him dry, it's impossible! Jie Jie Jie Jie! It was the rain and dew that I personally gave to Liu Ruolan, a little girl like you! Do you think it was just a dream? Do you still remember the poem I read in the dream? "
Mrs. Ru was stunned for a moment, then said in a trembling voice: "You...are you that 'Hua Fei Hua'?"
"Yes, yes, it seems you still remember it! The flowers are not flowers, and the mist is not mist. It comes in the middle of the night and goes at dawn. How long does it take to come like a spring dream? It goes like a morning cloud with nowhere to find. After all, the kindness of that night was not in vain! Jie Jie Jiejie, everyone was kept in the dark by us!”
Mrs. Ru angrily cursed a series of unpleasant words: "You dirty, inhuman thing, you must be dreaming and haven't woken up..."
The black cloud skull laughed: "Little girl, you have to be grateful to me! Without me, you will never experience the joy of being a mother! And I have paved the way for our children long ago. I deliberately instigated Xue Daiyun to treat you The purpose of casting the curse is to make our child bear the Nine Yin Jue Veins as soon as he is born, and become the strongest evil baby in the world! As long as we collect one hundred and twenty-nine sacrifices, our child will be done in no time!"
"You, you evil ghost..." Mrs. Ru was so angry that her voice turned into a trembling sound like crying.
Mrs. Xue also had a weird look on her face, she seemed to be crying and laughing at the same time, and murmured: "It turns out that he is an evil seed, hahahaha, he is not the father's seed..."
The laughter of the dark cloud skull became more and more proud, sharper, and more unscrupulous, as if it resounded throughout the night sky: "Just wait and see! When I take these last three sacrifices, our child will be born soon. !Jiejiejiejiejie..."
The laughter was magical, like a sharp spine. Even if I covered my ears, it still kept getting into my head.
Jiang Chen felt like his brain was being turned into a paste.
It was even difficult for him to organize normal thoughts. He was like a monkey under a curse. He had a splitting headache and wanted to faint immediately.
With only the last bit of clarity left in his heart, he chanted the "Exorcist Curse" with difficulty.
"Dharma book...vacuum...xingyuan...chengzhan..."
It was just eight words, but it took a lot of effort to read it out intermittently.
However, the effect was immediate. As soon as the eight characters came out, Jiang Chen immediately regained some of his consciousness, felt much better, and smoothly recited the subsequent incantation.
"The five thunders of heaven and earth are all present in human beings..."
He took the time to look up and found that the dark skull cloud in the sky was very close at hand, and the silver light shield protecting his head flickered like a candle in the wind, as if it would be extinguished at any time.
"No! This magic weapon can't withstand it anymore!"
Jiang Chen turned his head hurriedly and said to Lin Xi: "Miss Lin, you should stay with me. Let's narrow the circle a little so that it is stronger..."
"Shut up..." Lin Xi's voice trembled slightly.
"Hurry! It will be too late in a moment..."
"I told you to shut up!" Lin Xi suddenly raised her tone, her voice filled with long-suppressed anger, "You all bully others too much, why don't you die!"
The girl's screams were distorted by fear and anger, and spread in all directions, overwhelming the howls of ghosts and wolves around her.
All of a sudden, the world seemed to be a lot cleaner.
The ghostly cries of ghosts all around, Mrs. Xue's sad smile in the pavilion, Mrs. Ru's wailing in the distance, and the whining wind all stopped abruptly, as if they were frightened into silence by Lin Xi's roar.
Jiang Chen was secretly speechless, thinking that the roar of the Hedong lion was really scary, even ghosts were afraid of it. Anyone who marries Miss Lin will suffer a lot in the future.
The deafening grin on the dark cloud dome suddenly became hoarse, and then turned into a heart-rending roar: "You... you... you are actually a saint..."
The roar contained many emotions such as fear, panic, regret, etc. However, before the sentence was finished, it seemed to be cut off by some force.
It was completely quiet now.
Jiang Chen and Chi Yang looked at each other and looked at Lin Xi in unison.
Isn't the power of Miss Lin's roar too exaggerated?
The air was eerily still, and the dull, decaying smell made people restless.
Jiang Chen noticed the changes around him, looked up at the sky again, and let out a light sigh.
"The dark clouds are rising!"
Chi Yang's perception is sharper than Jiang Chen's, and he can also see changes further away.
He straightened up, looked at the pavilion, and took two steps outside.
Jiang Chen reminded: "Lao Chi, don't go too far."
Chiyang waved his hand and called in the direction of the pavilion: "Mrs. Xue?"
No one answered.
Mrs. Xue, who had been laughing loudly just now and gloating over the tragic experience of the three people, seemed to have evaporated from the world without making any sound.
Chiyang turned his head again and shouted in the direction of the well in the distance: "Mrs. Ru?"
Mrs. Ru was also silent.
Chi Yang raised his head and glanced at the sky, only to see that the dark skull-shaped dark clouds that covered the sky and the moon were rising slowly, not only getting further and further away from the ground, but also seemed to be gradually disintegrating.
He walked a few steps quickly, stepped into the pavilion, and saw that where Mrs. Xue had been standing, there was only a pool of blood, covered with a shabby dress.
Really scared to death?
Chiyang turned his head and looked at Lin Xi's figure, unable to suppress the surprise and suspicion on his face.
Jiang Chen was also speechless.
"Miss Lin, what kind of magic weapon is this? Isn't it too powerful?"
With just one voice, many ghosts and monsters were wiped out, and even the "ghost master" in the sky who was at least the sixth level of the God Refiner, "Royal Weapon", had no power to resist. Such power was simply unimaginable and unheard of!
Jiang Chen even had some doubts, was this Miss Lin a real seventh-level "Yin Shen" powerhouse? The pretentiousness just now was just pretending to be a pig, eating a tiger, playing with ghosts, to satisfy some of her bad tastes?
Lin Xi looked around, with a somewhat surprised expression on his face, as if he couldn't believe that his words could lead to such spectacular results.
After a while, she breathed out gently, straightened her face, glanced sideways at Jiang Chen, and said calmly: "If you dare to be rude to me again, they will be your role model."
Jiang Chen's eyes immediately narrowed into thin lines, he tried his best to show a friendly smile, shook his head and said: "Miss Lin misunderstood, Lao Chi and I are very grateful for your help, how can we be rude to you? Please don't be impulsive. , so as not to accidentally hurt good people, thank you!"
Lin Xi snorted and said, "If it weren't for Chi Yang's sake..."
She put her hands behind her hands and walked forward a few steps, looking at the few stars peeking out from behind the dark clouds in the distant night sky, her tone became soothing: "The Three Yin Jue Formation has been broken, you can leave now."
Jiang Chen said happily: "That's great, I'll take my leave."
He had long wished to stay as far away from this mysterious and strange girl as possible. Now in Jiang Chen's eyes, this Miss Lin was much scarier than Mrs. Xue or Mrs. Ru!
After all, the two ladies had been arguing for a long time, but nothing could compare to Miss Lin's roar like a lion from the east of the river.
Jiang Chen immediately walked a few steps quickly and waved to Chiyang: "Old Chi, let's go back!"
Chiyang was squatting outside the pavilion, carefully lifting up Song Qi's body and carrying it behind his back. Hearing this, he raised his head and asked, "Where is Miss Lin?"
"Her? She probably wants to go home and sleep..."
Lin Xi said: "I'm going to take a look at the dry well in the backyard. There should be something there. Do you want to come with me, Hero Chiyang?"
Just when Chi Yang was about to nod, Jiang Chen had already taken the lead and said, "Oh, what a coincidence. The group leader told us to go back as soon as we find Song Qi. We have to leave for the Netherworld Forest early tomorrow morning!"
Lin Xi originally looked resentful because of the first half of his sentence, but after hearing what he said, her expression turned from resentful to happy and said, "Is the Chiyang Hero also going to the Netherworld Forest? Are you leaving tomorrow morning?"
Jiang Chen secretly thought that something was wrong. Before he could think of how to change his words, he heard Chi Yang reply: "Yes, we are entrusted by others to set off early tomorrow morning to find a temple in the Nether Forest. Miss Lin, do you want to go with us?"
"Temple? It can't be such a coincidence..." Lin Xi's expression seemed to become a little strange, "Is the person who hired you a woman named Gao?"
"Exactly! Miss Lin also recognizes Miss Gao?"
Lin Xi nodded slightly, the curve of the corner of his mouth gradually disappeared, and said in an inexplicable and complicated tone: "Not only do we recognize him, but we also have some friendship."
"That's great! Since Miss Lin and Miss Gao are friends, they just go together and have someone to look after them on the way."
"No, no." Lin Xi waved her hand, looking a little lonely, "It's not convenient for me and her to meet. Besides, I spent a lot of energy tonight, and I have to rest for a few days, so I won't be with you. .”
Both Chi Yang and Jiang Chen could tell that the last sentence was just an excuse. The relationship between Miss Lin and Miss Gao was probably more than just "a bit of friendship".
However, they were not interested in getting to the bottom of other people's affairs, so they stopped asking and said goodbye to Lin Xi.
Before leaving, Jiang Chen reminded Lin Xi: "The origin of the 'ghost master' is probably related to Qingming Palace. They have been rooted in Xiliao City for a long time and have many eyes and ears. Lin may have noticed the movement here. It’s best for the girl to leave early to avoid a head-on conflict with Qingming Palace.”
Lin Xi nodded noncommittally and stood quietly, wondering if he heard it.
After walking out of Xue Mansion, Jiang Chen rolled up his sleeves and saw that the blood marks on his arms had finally begun to scab.
It seems that the curse has indeed been broken.
Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to sleep peacefully tonight.
But he still had some doubts in his heart. What was the relationship between Madam Xue, Madam Ru, Peach Blossom Assassin, Bloodstained Curse, and the Master of the Palace of Ten Thousand Demons?
Why was I also cursed by Mrs. Xue while dreaming about the "Master of the Palace of Ten Thousand Demons"?
Forget it, let’s think about it slowly tomorrow!
When we returned to the hunting group's house, it was already close to the ugly hour, the streets were quiet, and most of the people were asleep.
Only the house of the Two Wolf Hunting Group was still lit with lights, which stood out in the darkness from a distance.
Two nurses stood guard outside the door, dozing listlessly against the wall.
Chi Yang walked past them, and the two men were awakened by the sound of footsteps and quickly saluted Chi Yang.
"Brother Chiyang!"
"Brother Chiyang!"
Chi Yang waved his hand, strode into the courtyard, pointed to a loft in the west and said to Jiang Chen: "There is an empty room at the east end of the second floor. You can go there and rest for the night, and we can make other arrangements later."
Jiang Chen was already very sleepy at this time, so he entered the west wing alone without saying much.
After going upstairs and walking a few steps to the east, I saw a black figure standing outside a room, leaning forward and peering into the crack of the door. His behavior was quite suspicious.
'A thief? '
Jiang Chen's sleepiness disappeared in an instant. He looked intently and saw that the man was wearing a black tights, with his face covered and his waist bent. Although his posture was wretched, his hands and feet were quite slender and he seemed to be very flexible. .
The man in black was concentrating on the crack in the door, unaware that someone was looking at him more than ten steps away.
'Since he is a thief, why don't he enter the house? '
Jiang Chen was not sure about the identity of the man in black for a moment.
He heard that the entire mansion had been set up with a special magic circle by Grand Captain Jing Feng. Anyone who entered from anywhere other than the main entrance would trigger a warning. If they were just ordinary robbers, they shouldn't be able to sneak in, right?
Could it be a traitor?
The corner of Jiang Chen's mouth suddenly moved, and he said in a very slight tone: "I bet that this guy must be spying on women."
Jiang Chen frowned and held down the scroll in his arms with his right hand.
If it were anyone else, they might just think that Jiang Chen was talking to himself. Only he knew that the horse-faced old ghost in the scroll had possessed his body again and used his mouth to speak these words.
However, this time, Jiang Chen, who had mastered the "Exorcist Curse", would no longer be afraid of this ghost.
