Cold sweat suddenly covered my body, and I stared at them.
How did these two ghosts keep up with me?
When I left the Chenghuang Temple with Chuying, I was always cautious and didn't feel like I was being followed.
There is a saying that goes well, if you don’t do bad things, don’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door.
Even though I didn’t do anything wrong, I was still destined to suffer.
Being stared at by them like this, it's hard not to feel guilty...
When my body became more and more tense and I couldn't suppress the sweat on my forehead, suddenly, they floated higher and wandered farther away. The more gray air lingered, they gradually disappeared. In the dark night.
Coincidence?
Were they going out to do other things and happened to bump into me?
Or did they find something wrong with me?
I stood frozen for a long time before I regained my composure.
Just as I was about to continue walking forward, in the distance, the double flashing lights came on twice, and a white sedan roared towards me and stopped beside me.
The car window was lowered, but Chuying's pretty face was still tense.
"boarding."
"Why are you back again?" I calmed down a little.
"Seeing that you are going to die, you have to walk into the city to die. I want to give you a ride so that you can go faster and avoid making me feel depressed." Chu Yingfeng rolled her eyes at me.
I smiled and got in the passenger seat.
"Can you still laugh?" Chuying's face was filled with speechlessness.
"No, I think you are more real. Before, no matter your temperament, demeanor, or words, there was a deliberately seductive attitude, but now it is different." I answered truthfully.
"Real? Deliberate?" The way Chuying looked at me changed slightly, as if she didn't expect that I could tell the difference so clearly.
Chaoying did not drive immediately. She was silent for a few seconds, with a slightly complicated look in her eyes, and said:
"I have to admit that you have mastered several nine-level arts at a young age, and you have a very vicious vision. I thought you were just a blank slate, so you didn't understand."
"I didn't expect that you understood something."
"It's just that you are really too impatient and blindly confident. The danger of plague ghosts is completely different from blood resentment. The reason why you didn't die in the villa that day was because she was your mother. Maybe you have some trump cards in your hand. But they are definitely no match for the plague ghost."
"Don't you still have a deep grudge against Sun Dahai and Sun Zhuo? According to my investigation, your father's body was never found. The Luo family also has great secrets. You lost your life for a housekeeper's daughter. Who will avenge you?! "
Chuying's persuasion became more and more intense. She was not very young yet, and she seemed to be speaking sincerely.
Her performance actually gave me a little bit of trust and warmth.
Logically speaking, this kind of emotion should not appear in people who have only met two or three times.
But she responded to those two words, sincerity.
Chuying may have some plan to use me, but in front of me, she is absolutely sincere and unadulterated.
"Thank you." My tone was less stiff than before, and I thanked you sincerely.
Chuying was stunned for a moment, her face looked a little better, and then she said, "So, do you understand what you can do and what you can't do?"
"I understand, but the two things do not conflict." I answered truthfully.
"Luo Xianshen, I really want to throw you out of the car..." Chuying clenched her teeth and her face turned red.
Immediately, I added another sentence: "I feel that if I am not a plague ghost, I will not die foolishly."
Chuying'e frowned slightly and said, "Uncle Huang has said it conclusively..."
I interrupted her and said: "That's just his judgment. The earth energy has indeed appeared, which means that things that happened ten years ago were omitted. But the plague ghost really wants to attack the Chenghuang Temple. As for waiting ten years? We still have to let him go first. The earth's energy trembled once, and the City God's Temple noticed it, and then something happened?"
"I think these are two different things. The leakage of the City God Temple was caused by others."
"Also, if the plague ghost eats ghost energy, does it make sense to choose a more ferocious ghost to eat?"
I speak very fast.
Chuying then nodded. The doubts in her eyes gradually grew. It was obvious that she thought what I said made sense.
"This is the crux of the matter. Since Sweeping has taken away so many ghosts, why don't we leave those two evil ghosts alone?" I asked Chuying.
Chuying immediately explained, "That's not a simple evil ghost. You don't even know Si Ye?"
I shook my head.
Chu Ying pursed her lips again before saying: "Si Ye, the Erba God, is the patrolling ghost of the City God's Temple. Every night, he will wander around and appear next to any injustice, and then inform the City God and record it in the book."
My pupils shrank, Si Ye, is this weird? My understanding of the Chenghuang Temple is just a place across the border. It seems that this is just the tip of the iceberg.
However, my thoughts were very clear, and I said again: "You mean, the plague ghost is not Si Ye's opponent? Since Si Ye can smell the earth's atmosphere, it is impossible not to detect it. On the contrary, if the plague ghost can If you swallow Si Ye's ghost energy, you won't leave it behind!"
The words I spoke were ringing.
Tsubaki was completely shocked.
"It seems... does it really make sense? Let's go back and talk to Uncle Huang." Chuying immediately replied and was about to start the car.
"Don't look for him now. There's no point. Let's figure out what's going on first." I motioned for Chuying to drive into the city.
At this moment, Tsubaki's attitude toward me was completely different.
There was no anger as before, but more curiosity.
As we got deeper into the city, there were cars on the road. I asked Tsubaki to stop the car and I wanted to get out.
Chuying was a little puzzled and asked me what I was doing down there.
I told her truthfully that I had to go back and make preparations to figure out the matter, which was not that simple.
But once I figure it out, I'll contact her anytime.
Chu Yingcai nodded and said, "I'll give it to you, isn't that enough?"
"No need." I declined.
Although my trust in Chuying has reached a new level, I don’t want any third party to know where I live in the city village except Tang Quan and me.
Chuying was thoughtful before she parked the car on the side of the road. After I got out of the car, Chuying drove away.
By the time I returned to the Tang family's old house, the moon had long been hidden in the clouds.
Tang Quan stood blankly in front of Tang Qianqian's mourning hall in the house. White smoke was lingering, and even the yard was a little foggy.
There was a dirty wooden box on the table, tightly sealed, as if it had been dug out of the earth.
The woman is no longer in the yard, and there is still a pit under the roots of the peach tree.
Tang Quan turned around unsteadily, saw me, and called out "Master" tremblingly.
I quickly walked into the main room and spoke first: "Uncle Tang, Qianqian is fine for now."
It can be seen that he was almost physically and mentally exhausted after I left the night.
"Master, have you found her?" Tang Quan asked cautiously.
"When it gets dark tomorrow, don't worry, Uncle Tang, I will definitely be able to get her back." My words were sonorous.
Tang Quan's expression became much more stable now.
Immediately, he turned to look at the wooden box on the table.
