Lin Xixue could not help but feel agitated again when she heard the noise outside the house.
She released her consciousness, followed the sound of the suona, and saw the long dragon-like team marching on the street.
There is a vast water, and the number of people is unknown.
The people in the team, both men and women, were all dressed in white and wearing extremely exaggerated makeup.
The powder on her face was so thick that it seemed as if it had fallen into a flour bag, and the blush spread all the way from her cheeks to behind her ears. The lips were not rouged, but as dark as if they had just eaten a charcoal stick.
At the head of the procession was a pair of boys and girls, each holding a square plaque. However, the plaque seemed to have been splashed with black paint and the writing could not be seen clearly.
Behind the plaque are coffin-bearers on the front, back, left and right. The coffin-bearers wear a strange mask. The mask's mouth is crying, but its eyes are smiling. The nose is slightly wrinkled, and it seems to be sulky.
It was as if facial features with different expressions were roughly stacked and spliced together to create an expression that was completely unlike what a human should have.
Four coffin bearers worked together to carry a huge coffin and swayed forward.
A man on stilts followed closely behind, but the stilts were not an ordinary inch tall, but more than ten feet tall.
What's even more exaggerated is that even though the stilts have reached such a height, the sleeves of the person walking on the stilts have been dragged to the ground. Occasionally, when the night wind blows, you can see two big sleeves flying.
People walking on stilts span several feet in one step. In order to match the marching speed of the team, they walk very slowly and shake three times with every step.
It was not the first time Lin Xixue had seen someone walking on stilts, but she felt that the person walking on stilts this time gave people an uncoordinated feeling.
Moreover, the suona was playing so loudly that no one from the surrounding residents came out to yell and curse. It was really weird.
She noticed the strangeness of this team, and naturally she didn't want to cause more trouble. Although the sound of the suona annoyed her, she could only turn a deaf ear.
She was about to withdraw her consciousness when the man on stilts suddenly turned his head and looked into her consciousness.
This feeling was very strange. Obviously, the consciousness had no entity, so there was no way of looking at each other, but Lin Xixue was very sure that the two of them were looking at each other.
Then, the entire team stopped marching, the sound of suonas and gongs and drums also stopped abruptly, and they all tilted their heads to look at her.
Lin Xixue knew that she had been discovered, and thought something was wrong in her heart.
She looked at the pairs of dark eyes on the street, feeling horrified and quickly withdrew her consciousness.
She offered up the jade book, drew out the magic sword, became alert, and began to think about whether to fight or run away.
If he wanted to escape, he would have to carry such a large box of silver and Bai Qing, and he was afraid that he would get a nosebleed before he could fly far.
The details of the enemy are not yet clear, nor is the pursuit speed fast. If by then I am exhausted and have a nosebleed, but I haven't run away yet, wouldn't it be completely doomed if this weird team catches up?
Rather than being passive when the time comes, it is better to take advantage now.
Although those empty eyes made her very uncomfortable, when she thought of this, she had no choice but to suppress her fear, jump out of the window, and head straight for the weird team.
However, when she arrived here, she found that the streets were deserted, and there was no trace of the suona and the team.
Although the streets were empty, Lin Xixue felt like there was a whistling wind, and some goosebumps appeared inexplicably on her hands.
Lin Xixue's eyes were slightly closed, her thoughts changing rapidly.
Just now, I used my spiritual sense to detect this strange team, but now I use my naked eyes to detect it.
Is it possible that these things cannot be seen using ordinary means and can only be detected with spiritual sense?
She held the magic sword tightly, took a deep breath, and then released her consciousness again. She saw the boy and girl leaning against her face, staring at her with a smile.
"I......"
Lin Xixue was so frightened that she almost cursed and swung her sword to stab, but the magic sword passed through the bodies of the boy and girl without any hindrance, as if these things had no entity.
But what exactly is it?
hope? Yi?
But this is not right. If these things, like the owner, are the products after death, why does the owner need a great witch blessing to manifest in the world, but these things seem to be able to walk and move independently in the world?
The problems are piling up. She has not solved any of the problems left before. Now new confusions are emerging. The world is really unpredictable.
However, although the magic sword did not strike the entity, the shadow of the boy and girl seemed to be more transparent.
The entire team seemed to be frightened by the sword, and they all turned around and fled north of the city.
The coffin bearer in the team was running in a hurry because he was carrying a heavy load.
One of them accidentally dropped the mask on the ground while carrying the coffin, but did not bother to pick it up. It disappeared from the detection range of her consciousness like flying.
Lin Xixue looked at the mask that fell on the ground, feeling even more confused.
Just now, the magic sword passed directly through the bodies of boys and girls. She originally thought that these things were incorporeal. But if these things have no form, why can this mask fall to the ground?
You must know that the black feather coat on her body can pass directly through the ground.
It seems that besides her black feather coat, there are other things in this world that are in a state between reality and fiction?
But why did this mask turn from virtual to real when it fell to the ground? What is the transformation law between the two?
She couldn't figure it out for a moment, so she decided to try to see if she could pick up the mask first.
A delicate and flexible feeling came from the fingertips. This mask seemed to be made of some kind of leather.
Hiss, could it be human skin...
"You just tore off the faces of those five refugees, and now you are scared when you see a mask made of human skin?" The auditory hallucination appeared at the right time and was sarcastic.
"..."
Lin Xixue ignored the auditory hallucinations and rubbed the mask repeatedly in her hands. She felt that the mask might indeed be made of human skin, so she carefully restored the pores on the skin's surface.
However, after studying for a long time, she couldn't figure out the reason for the other functions except for the special material. What is so special about this mask can only be found out if you put it on yourself.
But Lin Xixue would not be so reckless as to put it on her face immediately. The origin of this mask was quite ominous, so she had to at least find someone to try it on first. If there was indeed no danger, then it would not be too late to use it herself.
Lin Xixue put away her mask and looked north of the city.
Just now, this team fled to the north of the city uniformly. Why was this?
Could it be that there is something else strange in the north of the city?
Lin Xixue had a headache. The memory of her previous body showed that since she was a child, whether she was praying to Buddha for wishes or worshiping her ancestors during the Qingming Festival, she had never encountered anything weird.
Why do I feel that everything in this world is weird after I traveled through time?
There is such a thing happening in a town that was thought to be relatively safe. This is contradictory to the memory of the predecessor.
what on earth is it?
Lin Xixue was trying to sort out the contradictions between various information, but another scream came from not far away. Judging from the direction of the sound, it was the Xu Mansion before...
