"Brother Wu? Brother Wu, are you okay?" - This was Xia Sanjin's voice.
"Brother Wu, are you okay? My wife...is she okay too?" - This was Xia Degui's voice.
I breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on my face.
very good!
The two guys could talk and were still looking cautiously into the bedroom.
It means that the evil ghost has really been completely killed.
But because he didn’t get my permission, he still didn’t dare to enter the bedroom...
"I'm fine, and so is Aunt Xia Dong."
I replied.
Perhaps because I was in a good mood, although I was starting to feel a little dazzled, I still managed to cheer up and walked out of the bedroom door.
At this time, the incandescent lamps on the top of the main room and corridor, and the kerosene lamps on the table were all on.
Using the light, I saw a thin body wearing a red dress lying face down on the ground not far from the door.
My magic knife is still stuck in its neck!
Xia Degui also followed me to look at the corpse on the ground with a complicated expression.
There were many emotions in his eyes, such as sadness, sorrow, intolerance, etc., but there was also a sense of relief.
It was Xia Sanjin who quickly explained.
"Brother Wu, after you entered just now, Brother Degui and I have been guarding the door vigilantly with big sticks in hand according to what you said."
"It's so dark inside that we can't see anything. The two of us are the anxious ones..."
"After a few minutes, I suddenly heard a terrifying howl. Then this terrifying ghost rushed out. I was so scared that I was shaking all over."
"I originally planned to fight it with all my strength and hit it with a few sticks, but as soon as it rushed out of the door, it fell directly to the ground. It made a howling sound like a wild beast."
"Brother Degui and I thought it was a scam, but after waiting for a while, it was still lying motionless. Black gas continued to emit from its neck. After the black gas emitted, it completely stopped moving."
I looked at the corpse of the red-clothed ghost lying on the ground - it was indeed just an ordinary corpse now!
"Good, things should be resolved."
I said with a smile.
At this time, a strong feeling of dizziness came over.
Maybe it’s because I know it’s over, and I just can’t hold on any longer…
His legs softened and he leaned directly against the door frame, and his whole body slid towards the ground like a puddle of mud.
I know that this is due to excessive consumption and physical exhaustion.
Xia Sanjin and Xia Degui were immediately frightened.
"Brother Wu, what's wrong with you?"
"Brother Wu, are you okay? Don't scare us!"
They came over quickly to help me.
I said with the last bit of my strength before passing out.
"I'm fine, I'm just out of strength. Burn the ghost's body quickly, then mix it with mugwort ashes and scatter them into the river. Then clean up my sword for me, and wait..."
Before I finished speaking, my vision went dark and I fainted.
Of course I don’t know what happened after that.
And maybe it was because his mana and physical strength were exhausted and he was extremely exhausted. In the process of falling asleep, I rarely had any dreams.
When I regained consciousness and woke up, I opened my eyes and saw the window and the dazzling bright sunshine outside.
Look around again.
It should be a bedroom, and the sheets and quilts are all new.
There is also a refreshing scent of washing powder.
"Where am I...? How long have I been asleep?"
Sitting up from the bed, I gently rubbed my temples.
The memory still lingers on the scene where I passed out leaning against the door frame of my bedroom door on the first floor.
But now when I open my eyes, time and space have changed, as if the time in between has been pinched away.
This feeling is very wonderful.
Of course, this is not unique to practitioners. This is actually the case for ordinary people sleeping.
I remembered a sentence I saw when I was reading Yao Nan's extracurricular books during recess when I was studying in school...
What is death? Death is when a person falls asleep, has no dreams, and will never wake up again!
I think it makes perfect sense.
In fact, every time a person sleeps without dreaming, it is like a near-death experience.
The only difference is that you will wake up again.
I rolled out of bed and put on my shoes first. He turned his neck and moved his body.
Then he used his mind to sense the conditions of the meridians and acupoints in his body.
"Very good, the Qi in Dantian has recovered to at least 90%. This means that I shouldn't have been sleeping for a particularly long time. It is estimated that it is the next morning."
At Master's request, I had already tested how long it would take to recharge the Qi in my Dantian after completely consuming it.
If you do not use meditation, meditation, chanting mantras and other blessing methods to allow the energy in your body to recover naturally, it will take about ten hours.
And now it has recovered to 90%... This means that it is estimated that nine hours have passed.
It should be around eleven o'clock in the morning, almost noon?
"Let's go out and take a look first."
I opened the door and walked out.
I found it on the second floor of Xia Degui's house. It seemed that after I passed out last night, he and Xia Sanjin carried me to the second floor to sleep.
I walked downstairs, and sure enough I saw two guys, Xia Sanjin and Xia Degui, sitting in the main room chatting.
He even thought about drinking tea!
At this time, the door was open, and the bright sunshine outside shone in. The whole hall was bright and filled with a warm and comfortable feeling.
The sound of pots and pans could be heard in the kitchen, as if someone was cooking.
Unexpectedly, just nine hours ago, this place was shrouded in gloom, strangers were not allowed to enter, and evil spirits entered the house!
And I had a battle with that red-clothed fierce ghost, and it was full of dangers.
It's like a lifetime ago.
Ahem...
I coughed lightly and walked down the last few stairs.
Xia Sanjin and Xia Degui immediately stopped talking, then turned around and saw me walking over. They immediately stood up with a smile and came towards me.
"Hey, little brother Wu, are you awake? Didn't you sleep a little longer?"
Xia Sanjin had a smile on his face and a sense of relief.
I shook my head.
"I feel like my body has almost recovered, so I woke up naturally. By the way, did you two follow my instructions before I passed out and completely burn the ghost's body to ashes?"
Xia Degui nodded and answered immediately.
"I did everything you asked, Brother Wu. I burned Xiaomi's body and a pile of mugwort to ashes, and as soon as daybreak I went out and scattered it into the river."
When he mentioned "Xiaomi", his face still looked a little sad.
Xia Sanjin also said that this was indeed the case, and they did it together. It was still late at night and I didn't dare to go far, so I burned it in the yard.
I turned to look out.
Sure enough, I found that the ground in the yard was dark, and the soil was burnt black.
