"Third Prince!" Heili was shocked when he saw the strange behavior of the Third Prince, and hurried forward to check the situation.
"Wait... vomit..." Before the third prince could finish his words, he suddenly retched, and there was a sour taste in his mouth.
Although the door of the house was banging at this time, fortunately, those things outside the house could not break in for the time being, and the few people turned their attention to the third prince.
"Third Prince, what's wrong with you? Is this fruit poisonous?" Pei Hu looked very worried.
"It's not that it's poisonous, it's just that this fruit...why is it so sour?" The third prince was already thirsty, and after the tossing just now, he felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.
"It's okay... Third Prince, can you see those things now?" Jin Zhuer saw Heili picking up the fruit and was about to open his mouth, so she quickly stopped him and then looked at the Third Prince.
"I...I'll try first..." The third prince kept his head down and didn't dare to look towards the door. At this time, he closed his eyes and took a long breath, then slowly raised his head and opened his eyes slightly. .
The moment he opened his eyes, he stared at the door in disbelief, his mouth slightly open, but he didn't make any sound.
"Third Prince?" When Pei Hu saw the appearance of the Third Prince, he felt a little nervous and took a few steps away from the door.
The third prince was stunned when he heard this. He looked around and rubbed his eyes before saying, "That's wrong! Why didn't I see anything?"
"Ah?" Several people were stunned when they heard this. They originally thought that the third prince had seen something extraordinary, but they did not expect such a reply.
But just now several people touched the package and saw vague shadows. But at this time, the third prince who had eaten the fruit and the black raccoon holding the fruit did not see anything strange anymore. A cloud of doubt enveloped them. over their heads.
"It's really strange... After working for a long time, it's not the problem with the fruit, but this package looks like ordinary cloth. What's the problem?" Jin Zhuer pulled the package, then balled it up and threw it on Pei Hu, who was shocked. The latter staggered and sat down on the yellow paper on which the fruit was wrapped. Then he groaned and pointed at the door, speechless.
"Huh?" Hei Li's eyes lit up when he saw this, he picked up Pei Hu and picked up the yellow paper from under his butt.
Just now, everyone's attention was focused on the fruits in the package, and no one paid attention to the yellow paper used to wrap the fruits. After Pei Hu's mistake, Heili finally discovered the "culprit".
"Look!" Heili spread out the yellow paper, and several talismans suddenly appeared in his hand.
"This talisman...could it be because of this talisman just now?" The third prince was slightly stunned.
"That's right!" Heili nodded and said thoughtfully: "I remember seeing a similar charm before, called the 'life-shielding charm'!"
"The life-shielding talisman? I seem to have heard of such a thing!" Jin Zhuer became more energetic, took the life-shielding talisman and chirped: "I remember someone said that there is a ball of fire above the head of a living person, and the more vitality he has, the more vitality he has. The stronger the fire is, the stronger it will be. Once you die and the fire goes out, you will see things that you can't usually see! And this life-shielding talisman is used to cover the fire above your head so that living people can see those things. The spell!"
"I understand the truth, but who is it? Why do you want to torture yourself by studying this thing?" Shouhou scratched his head and asked in confusion.
"It is said that once a person dies, he will see a road leading to the underworld, but there are also people who are unwilling to leave early and can only turn into lonely souls wandering in the mortal world. The Ghost Palace uses this life-shielding talisman to find those wandering lonely souls. Soul, send them to where they should go." Heili explained.
"Tsk, tsk, that's it..." Shou Hou suddenly realized, and then his face suddenly became nervous and he said uneasily: "Crazy woman...Jin Zhuer, I suddenly remembered something! Just now you said that the stronger the vitality, the stronger the fire... But I always feel a chill on the top of my head! And I remember that when I was in the Immortal Mansion, the handsome man always stared at the top of my head... Am I going to die? "
Jin Zhuer was stunned when he heard this, and then said seriously: "Shou Hou! Don't worry! I can see that among the few of us, the fire on your head is the strongest!"
"Really? How did you tell?" Shouhou was delighted when he heard this.
"Look! Your fire has burned all the hair on the top of your head. It must be quite strong!" Jin Zhuer couldn't hold back and burst out laughing, which made Shou Hou feel ashamed and angry.
"You...you go too far!" Shou Hou was very concerned about his baldness, and his face turned red with embarrassment.
"Jin Zhuer! Stop making trouble! Business is important!" The third prince couldn't help but laugh a little, coughed a few times to cover up, and then reprimanded.
"Pei Hu? Pei Hu!" Jin Zhuer shouted several times but no one answered. Seeing Pei Hu's lost look, she felt a little confused, "Forget it! Hei Li, the third prince, Shouhou happens to be one of us. One piece, stuff the life-shielding talisman first and solve the situation at hand!"
"I..." Shou Hou moved quickly and folded the life-preserving talisman in just a few clicks. Only then did he realize that he had nowhere to place the talisman.
"Shouhou!" Jin Zhuer was about to fix the birth-shielding talisman with a hairpin. When she saw Shouhou's look, she was a bit dumbfounded, so she stopped what she was doing.
"Ah?" Shou Hou responded casually.
Jin Zhuer grabbed the life-preserving talisman, quickly touched it in Shouhou's mouth, and then patted it on the top of his bare head with a snap.
"Done!" Jin Zhuer was very proud, no longer caring about Shou Hou's murderous gaze, and turned around and walked towards Pei Hu.
"Pei Hu! Why are you still standing there?" Jin Zhuer was always impatient. Seeing that Pei Hu was indifferent, she stuffed her life-preserving talisman into Pei Hu's hair.
"Wow!" Pei Hu finally recovered, stood up and hid behind Heili.
"Hmph! What a fuss!" Jin Zhuer felt guilty for a while when she saw this situation. She looked at the last life-shielding talisman in her hand, gritted her teeth and finally pinned it in her hair.
"Ah!" The moment she stuffed the birth-shielding talisman into her hair, her face turned pale and she exclaimed unconsciously.
I saw that the originally empty room was crowded with phantoms. It turned out that the banging on the door did not come from outside, but from inside the house. No wonder Pei Hu was so rude just now!
As the shadow appeared, cries and howls suddenly appeared, and the surroundings became noisy for a while. The sound of banging on the door, the sound of fire, and the cries and howls were endless!
Several phantoms with their backs to the five people were originally unaware of the people behind them, but after they covered the fire above their heads, their figures were also revealed. When these phantoms heard the sound, they slowly turned their heads. , the front of these shadows is actually blurry.
"Move...do it!" Although I was still uneasy, the crisis was imminent, so I had no choice but to bite the bullet.
But the moment they fought, they felt something bad. His attack could not hurt them at all. Instead, when they touched them, they would feel a chill on their bodies.
"Black raccoon! Look outside!" Jin Zhuer's punch missed and punched through half of the window. When she saw the scene outside, her heart suddenly became cold. She saw countless black shadows appearing out of thin air outside the yard, swarming towards them. .
"Pei Hushouhou! Take the third prince with you! Let's go!" Although the attack was ineffective, Heili succeeded in attracting these phantoms and made a way in front of the gate.
"Let's go!" The third prince looked pale, subconsciously picked up the fruit on the ground, and hurriedly escaped with the help of Pei Hushouhou.
The movements of these phantoms are very strange. The faster they go, the faster they follow. Once they slow down a little, the phantoms slow down and follow them like a shadow.
"This is not a solution!" Shou Hou staggered while covering his forehead with the life-shielding talisman, fearing that it would fall off.
"Listen to the bell..." the third prince said weakly.
Hearing this, Heili became light and climbed to the roof in a few steps. He took a deep breath to steady his breath, and finally felt a peaceful voice among the noise.
"This way!" Heili jumped down and pointed to the open space in the distance.
As a few people approached, the sound of the bell gradually became clearer, and the shadow behind him was also very afraid of the sound, and finally did not dare to approach anymore, but just surrounded the few people in the middle.
"It seems that they are very afraid of this thing." Shou Hou broke out in sweat on his forehead, and the charm was firmly attached, so he felt relieved, sat on the ground, and looked at the source of the bell in front of him.
On a stone platform, half a copper bell was hung on two stone pillars. The reason why it was said to be half a bell was because the bell was split into two halves by unknown means, and half of it fell on the stone. On stage.
But although no one was knocking, and there was no movement, the big clock kept ringing, which was very surprising. However, they had experienced too many things today, and they were numb, so they were not surprised.
"Third Prince, please be patient for a little longer. When these things disperse in the morning, we can leave safely." They didn't know how long they rested here. Hei Li suddenly became energetic and quickly opened his eyes, only to see the Third Prince. Holding her stomach in great pain, she quickly comforted her.
"It doesn't matter, it's probably the fruit that caused the trouble. It doesn't matter... uh..." The third prince wiped his sweat and took out the fruit in his arms. As soon as he felt the pain, the fruit fell to the ground again and rolled away a long way, but he covered his head. I didn't rush to pick it up even though my stomach was full.
"No! Hiss...no, no, no..."
"Pei Hu! Are you scared and confused! What are you muttering about?" Jin Zhuer shouted displeasedly when she heard Pei Hu chattering next to him like he was chanting a curse.
"No! It's really wrong!" Pei Hu made a silent gesture, patted his thigh and leaned over, "Normally Shouhou and I take care of the third prince's daily life, so we are naturally very familiar with the third prince's habits! We usually take care of the third prince's daily life. The third prince has a very regular schedule. He goes to bed at sunset and the rooster crows..."
Pei Hu lowered his head and glanced at the third prince secretly. Seeing the latter's eyes slightly narrowed, he continued to whisper: "We worked hard all night yesterday, and we just rested for a while. Although there was no rooster crow, looking at the third prince At this rate, it's probably dawn... but why doesn't the sky show any signs of getting brighter?"
"What do you mean?"
"We must have encountered a ghost and hit a wall!"
