Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Sister doesn’t want to take responsibility?

Jiang Li opened his eyes and the scene in the ancestral hall remained the same.

The clothes were worn neatly, almost deliberately.

Fragments flashed through her mind.

Cloud Four.

It was like a very real dream, and the soreness and fatigue in the dream were still there.

Noticing something strange in her palm, she opened her hand.

Seeing a silver bell lying quietly in her palm, her heart trembled suddenly.

No...it wasn't a dream.

A male voice came from behind her: "Sister, are you awake?"

Jiang Li's body trembled and he slowly turned around.

The young man was a little blinded by the light. The silver ornaments hanging on his dark blue Miao uniform shone, and he seemed to be shrouded in a halo.

Jiang Li swallowed his saliva, feeling a little guilty...

It was him last night.

It was her coaxing and seduction that led to that sexual encounter.

Her witchcraft only lasted for a few hours and has long lost its effect.

Now that he has regained consciousness, what will happen...

Jiang Li was at a loss and prepared to be punished later.

As the young man approached, Jiang Li noticed that he had a smile on his face, but he still subconsciously took two steps back.

It was dark last night and she couldn't see the boy's face clearly, but as he got closer, his face became clearer.

A refreshing feeling.

Her first impression was of youth, purity, and a clarity untainted by the world. Between her delicate brows were a pair of doe-like eyes, innocent and harmless.

The sixteen-year-old boy was half a head taller than her.

Staring at her.

Jiang Li lowered his head to avoid it and saw Yun Si holding food in his hands, which was chicken and water.

Wait, where's the chicken?

Yun Si seemed to see through her confusion and said, "Sister, you must be hungry. Eat it while it's hot."

There was concern and kindness in his tone.

Coupled with the boy's gentle smile, he is so innocent, kind and harmless.

Jiang Li looked around in his heart with a look of doubt on his face.

The love poison had temporarily disturbed his mind, but shouldn't he have been furious when it wore off? Wasn't he angry that his innocence had been taken away for no reason? Or did the love poison have an additional effect, capable of causing a person to fall in love overnight?

Or perhaps the love poison hasn't lost its effect yet?

She had been prepared for the boy to quarrel with her, but his reaction today surprised her.

Noticing Jiang Li's expression, her bright eyes dimmed, revealing her disappointment: "Sister, why are you distancing yourself from me? You clearly did that last night... Don't you want to take responsibility..."

He actually asked her to take responsibility...

Jiang Li had read in a book that some people would develop special feelings for new things they tried for the first time. Is Yun Si the same?

Jiang Li still had a cold expression and looked suspicious.

Yun Si seemed to know nothing and pulled a chicken leg and handed it to her.

She didn't answer and deliberately turned her face away to test him.

Yun Si smiled and took the chicken leg back, took a bite, and then handed it over again: "I didn't poison it, you can eat it without worry."

His words were so sincere that Jiang Li felt ashamed. She even felt a little sorry for him...

Jiang Li no longer had the desire to test the waters, so he took the chicken leg and started eating.

"Sister didn't lie to me. I was really happy last night..." Jiang Li was eating happily when Yun Si suddenly said this.

Jiang Li nearly choked to death after failing to swallow a mouthful of chicken, and she coughed until tears streamed down her face.

Yun Si, however, was not at all shy or embarrassed. He handed her the water and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Li shook his head and quickly drank some water.

He was not interrupted and continued to speak: "I want to say, I like my sister..."

The water that didn't make it down into her stomach almost choked her to death...

Are you really in love with her?

Jiang Li didn't mean to ignore him, but every word he said made her wish she were dumb.

Jiang Li put down the chicken leg in her hand. Before she choked to death, she made sure she would not starve to death.

"Not to your taste?"

Finally, he could answer, and Jiang Li blurted out, "I'm full, you can eat the rest."

"But my sister ate a lot last night." He seemed to be hinting at something.

Jiang Li's face darkened. Why hadn't she noticed this guy was so... clingy last night? She glanced at the sky. It was almost noon, so she should get rid of him first.

"Someone from the village will be coming soon, so you should leave this place first."

"But I don't want you to die..." Yun Si remembered what Jiang Li said yesterday, "Please don't chase me away, okay? I can also help my sister leave."

Jiang Li sighed and decided to pull him out of his own world to make him sober up: "It's just a one-night stand, you don't have to take it to heart."

She answered calmly, and Yun Si's eyes turned red and his eyes gradually became moist.

Jiang Li looked at him, his tone still cold: "If you must ask why, I can only answer that you are not worthy of it."

I am not worthy of it.

This time, Yun Si seemed to have been hit in a sore spot. His eyes immediately darkened and the corners of his mouth couldn't hold back.

What Jiang Li meant by "not being able to enjoy it" was that he was unable to respond to Yun Si's kindness. What Yun Si heard was Jiang Li's dissatisfaction, accusations, and disgust towards him last night.

There was a commotion outside the door. Jiang Li pulled Yun Si to the window and said, "Someone's coming. Leave first or hide."

This time, Yun Si was the cold one.

Jiang Li was anxious. If she was discovered doing things in the ancestral hall, she would be beaten to death without any reason.

"A Si, please!" Jiang Li's voice softened and he pleaded quickly.

Yun Si's eyes flickered with emotion: "Then promise me that you will come find me when it's over."

Jiang Li quickly responded: "Okay, I promise you!"

"What if I break my promise?"

"Then I will..." Jiang Li started to speak but didn't finish his words.

Yun Si covered her mouth with his hand and whispered in her ear: "I will definitely find you and collect the debt from you, Sister Ali..."

It sounded like a threat and a warning.

When the people from the village pushed the door open and entered, Yun Si had already been sent away by her.

They took out the key and untied the chains on Jiang Li, but at the same time put on new shackles.

Jiang Li was chained and watched like a prisoner.

Jiang Li noticed that the person who came was holding a bowl of red liquid, which looked like blood...

"What is this?" Jiang Li looked at the bowl of red, and a bad memory emerged in his mind.

The man laughed sarcastically: "Black dog blood, used to remove your bad luck!"

Jiang Li stared at him and felt that he looked more and more familiar, until she caught a glimpse of the scar on his chin and then she remembered him.

She had been enemies with him since childhood.

After Tu Niang died, Jiang Li lived alone in the courtyard she left behind. But every time she went up the mountain, she would always run into a group of boring children.

Jiang Li's reputation as a disaster star is known to everyone in the village.

At first, the group just mocked her with words, laughing as she passed by. Later, the mockery turned into a sarcastic nursery rhyme, "Jiang Li is a calamity star, bringing misfortune to her mother and relatives..."

Jiang Li's disregard was met with them becoming more and more aggressive. They even let snakes bite her and even wanted to kill her at one point.

After being bitten when he followed Tu Niang into the cave, Jiang Li had always had a shadow on snakes. He couldn't say he was afraid of them, but every time he saw one, his scalp tingled.

She first disappeared for several days to let them relax their vigilance. Then she hid on the road they had to take to get home, and cast Gu underground one by one.

While taking revenge, he practiced the newly learned witchcraft.

Her witchcraft was very successful.

A strange thing happened in Cangshui Village.

Many children would start crying and screaming late at night, as if possessed by an evil spirit, and no matter what they did, they would not stop. But once daytime came, they would return to normal.

When Jiang Li met them again, their voices were hoarse and they could not speak because they had been yelling all night long.

She remembered clearly that one of them was disfigured as a result.

Later, the villagers invited several Taoist priests to perform rituals, but the condition did not improve.

In the end, the situation got so bad that it affected Jiang Li's sleep at night that she stepped in to resolve it.

If he offended Jiang Li, he would be the one who would be in trouble.

The man held a bowl full of blood and gave her a malicious smile.

He wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge.

According to the method of getting rid of bad luck, the direction of splashing blood should be the door, but he accumulated strength in the direction of Jiang Li.

Jiang Li saw the right moment and hooked his foot on the iron chain he was stepping on. The chain rolled suddenly, causing his foot to slip.

The moment the man fell backwards, the bowl in his hand flew into the air due to inertia.

Then he was hit hard from behind, and the whole bowl of dog blood poured out on his face.

Jiang Li made no secret of it and gloated, "It seems that if you were a little more unlucky, it wouldn't be a waste."

"You!" The man on the ground reached out to wipe the blood plasma off his face, his face flushed with anger.

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows and stood there silently, looking down with his head tilted, full of provocation.

"You, you, you..." The man pointed at Jiang Liyou for a long time, unable to utter a complete sentence.

"I'll tell you a secret, it was me who possessed you when you were a child." The gentle voice, but the words uttered made people feel a chill down their spine.

After the incident, several children who were possessed by evil spirits unanimously suspected that Jiang Li was responsible and told their parents. However, no one believed him. Everyone thought that Jiang Li, a child under ten years old, could not have such great abilities, so the matter was left unresolved.

Only he was still feeling resentful.

Because his face was disfigured, he lost the face he was most proud of. But he didn't dare to provoke Jiang Li again, for fear of bringing more trouble upon himself.

Jiang Li's admission today only increased his fear. The fear he had in his youth was magnified a hundredfold at this moment, and he was trembling all over, a mess.

"You are indeed a monster..." Even his voice was shaking.

Jiang Li thought, it would be great if everyone was as afraid of him as he was.

Boom——

The bell on the top of the mountain rang, and Jiang Li looked towards the source of the sound.

The sacrificial ceremony is about to begin, and there will be some fun to watch...

The man beside him felt his scalp tingle as he saw the corners of Jiang Li's mouth gradually rise. What a lunatic! She's absolutely crazy!

A woman came in from the doorway, holding a dress in her hands, and spoke timidly: "This is a wedding dress, please change into it..."

After saying that, the man placed the clothes in front of Jiang Li and quickly retreated.

She is scared.

Jiang Li didn't recognize most of the people in the village, but the woman's eyes and eyebrows looked very familiar to her.

"What is your relationship with Ximen Qiu?"

Ximen Qiu is the elder of Cangshui Village. After Jiang Li learned about his behavior, she usually called him an old fox.

The woman replied, "He is my grandfather."

As soon as the woman finished speaking, the silent man beside her spoke up: "Yueyao, don't talk to her, she, she is a monster!"

The woman glanced at Jiang Li, and perhaps influenced by those words, she said, "Remember to change your clothes" and turned around and left.

Seeing this, the man hurriedly chased after him.

Ximen Yueyao, what a nice name.

Jiang Li turned his gaze to the dress that was delivered. It was red, a wedding dress style...

Now she was only wearing a pair of shackles, and her movements were not restricted. She picked up her clothes and walked towards the side room.

Jiang Li took off his coat, spread out his clothes and was about to change.

"Are you really going to follow them to the altar? Didn't you say you would die?"

The sudden sound startled her and she hurriedly grabbed a piece of clothing to cover her chest.

Jiang Li turned around and saw Yun Si: "Why are you still here?"

Every time he appears, he can really be described as elusive.

"You can leave now, why do you still follow them to the sacrifice..." Yun Si was a little anxious, glancing at the red dress on the table, "This dress is ugly."

He was full of resentment.

"I have my own ideas and plans." Jiang Li didn't want to explain any more to him. "Since I promised you before, I will naturally do what I said."

"But!" Yun Si looked at her, but his eyes were uncontrollably attracted by the whiteness, moving down and landing on her collarbone.

The red marks on the delicate skin are unnecessary and glaring.

When Yun Si realized what he was doing, a blush instantly spread to his ears. He quickly averted his gaze and glanced away.

Suddenly, the scene of last night appeared in my mind...

Was he so crazy last night?

Jiang Li noticed his gaze and quickly pulled his clothes up, glaring at him: "Get out, I need to change clothes."

"I..." Yun Si closed his eyes and turned away, "I don't want to look. I'll turn around after you change."

There was a commotion.

Yun Si waited for a long time and couldn't wait any longer: "Is it done?"

"Wait a moment."

Yun Si heard the voice and responded obediently: "Okay."

The noise behind him disappeared for a long time, and Yun Si asked again: "Is it done?"

No response.

Yun Si suddenly realized something was wrong and quickly turned around, but what he saw was the door being closed.

Jiang Li locked him in the house.

Yun Si knocked on the door to try to get her to open it, but she responded with a firm voice: "You stay here obediently. The door will open after the sacrifice ceremony is over."

There was no response from the other side of the room, so Jiang Li assumed that he agreed.

She was about to leave when he suddenly asked through the crack of the door: "Sister, are you lying to me..."
