The wind was blowing fiercely in the wilderness.
The night wind blew away the dark clouds that covered the sky and the moon. Through the flying sleeves, Zhan Zhao could clearly see that the covered face of Chu Qi was different from the usual smoothness at this moment.
The surface was now covered with ugly and ferocious red marks, and there were drops of blood between the flesh and skin that seemed to be dripping down uncontrollably.
Horrible, pitiful.
Again, it’s heartbreaking.
There were dense forests, and the cold moonlight reflected on Chu Qi's body, making her look so lonely, with a strange feeling that did not belong to this world all over her body.
Zhan Zhao couldn't help but reach out to her, he wanted to dispel this loneliness for her.
However, he failed to succeed. Seeing him walking towards him, Chu Qi subconsciously took a step back.
"Master Zhan..."
She reminded her again, but her tone was trembling for some reason.
"...Please don't look at me, I'll scare you."
"Won't."
What responded to her was Zhan Zhao's gentle but unyielding hand that carefully held up her ghostly face.
For a moment, Chu Qi still wanted to pull away and retreat, but in the end, she compromised because of the distressed look in her eyes.
That's weird, are the special effects not working? Why doesn't Zhan Zhao feel scared?
"People have their appearance, and ghosts have their appearance. Mr. Zhan, this is my true appearance as a ghost. Don't you... don't you find it scary?"
"If you say you are not scared at all... then you would definitely be lying. However, as long as I think of the way Miss Chuqi struggled to save me just now, Zhan will no longer be scared."
Zhan Zhao spoke so seriously. Chu Qi looked at him for a long time, and two lines of blood and tears suddenly fell from his eyes.
How could you not be afraid?
In fact, the person who was most afraid of this face was Chu Qi himself.
When modifying the makeup component Yi Di Mi Di, according to the rules, in order to achieve maximum effectiveness, the production of the ghost face must be modified based on the thing that scares Chu Qi the most.
And what frightened her the most was this bloody face with twisted muscles.
Speaking of which, that was something she encountered when she first entered the industry.
I had bad luck on the seventh day of the lunar month. I was chosen to go on a business trip to a high-risk plane on the second ticket.
It was a world full of blood and violence. As a result, even if the work was not completed, he was captured and skinned alive. The auxiliary system at that time was not as perfect as it is now, and there was no automatic escape function. If it hadn't been for the person who had been paying attention When her seniors discovered something was wrong and forcibly brought her back, she might have had a mental breakdown and was lost in a place called Meteor Street, becoming a piece of garbage.
Even her body will most likely fall into a complete sleep, or even become a vegetative state.
After that, even though he stopped working for a long time and received countless psychological counseling sessions, Chuqi still didn't dare to go to the high-risk plane again. He just counted on picking up some small orders and fishing every day, just to have enough food and clothing.
until now.
"Little Chu Qi, just cry if it hurts."
The gentle voice of comfort in my memory suddenly sounded again that night. The voices of my sister and Zhan Zhao overlapped, and Chu Qi suddenly felt a sore nose.
"Miss Chuqi, just cry if it hurts."
--"I am here."
The moon was hidden and the stars were setting. Chu Qi couldn't hold it back and sobbed in Zhan Zhao's arms.
After crying for a while, Chu Qi finally calmed down. She looked at Zhan Zhao's wet clothes on his chest, wiped her tears in embarrassment, and said in a hoarse voice: "Mr. Zhan, I'm sorry. I'll pay you one more thing later." Clothes."
Hearing this, Zhan Zhao laughed and said:
"It doesn't matter. Zhan can wash it himself. Miss Chu Qi doesn't have to worry about it. The most important thing right now is to go back to the inn to check on Master Bao and Mr. Gongsun."
As he spoke, he sighed softly and added: "Although Mr. Bao previously assured Chen Jing that he would not dare to kill him, I look at today's changes. Although there is no danger of death, I may not be safe. "
Chu Qi nodded and agreed: "Indeed, that Master Xuanji is so suspicious. I don't know what means he used to affect our five senses one after another."
Hearing this, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but frown and began to think deeply. After a long time, he said:
"I once heard that there is a method in Tantric Buddhism in the Western Regions called Huantian. It can weave dreams and create landscapes for people, making their wishes come true. In the end, they are willing to become the puppet of the person who casts the spell. I wonder if that Master Xuanji is I also practiced this technique.”
After pondering for a moment, Zhan Zhao could only let out a rare sigh due to the fact that he was currently passive and had few clues.
"...Anyway, we still have to go back first, and we must inform Master Yubao of this as soon as possible. Miss Chuqi, are you ready?"
He held out his hand to her again.
This time, without hesitation, Chu Qi took hold of it.
