Josh nodded: “I remember it.”
The old saint signaled to Yuexi and asked her to take the person back to the boathouse.
Only then was Qiao Xi freed and left with Yuexi.
Before going out, she suddenly felt something cold entering her body.
Qiao Xi subconsciously touched the area of his dantian and felt an indescribable strange feeling.
She turned her head to look at the statue, shook her head, and followed Yuexi's footsteps.
"Aunt Yuexi, what did the Saint mean just now?"
Yuexi bowed her head respectfully and said, "Replying to the priestess, it means exactly what it says."
Qiao Xi thought for a moment and held Yuexi's hand: "Aunt Yuexi, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you off in front of the Saint just now. Because you always dislike me, I wanted to get your attention."
Yuexi frowned slightly and tried to struggle out: "You are too kind, I don't dislike you."
Qiao Xi looked at her and said, "Aunt, you look like my aunt. She also has a beautiful face like you, with high cheekbones and a very three-dimensional look. She dotes on me very much, so every time I see you look expressionless to me, I can't help but want to do something to attract your attention. Please forgive me."
Yuexi lowered his head, and his attitude softened a lot: “Yuexi dare not.”
Qiao Xi curled his lips slightly, and she knew that one should not hit a smiling person.
She took Yuexi's arm affectionately and said, "Aunt Yuexi, I will have to rely on you to take care of me in the future. You don't know that I had a high fever before I came here. My brain is confused and I can't remember many things about the Yue Clan. I don't know the rules and I always offend you."
A hint of understanding flashed across Yuexi's eyes: "Don't worry, priestess, you have to learn the rules every morning, and you will get it slowly."
Qiao Xi smiled and nodded: "I don't know why, but when I see my aunt, I always feel very close to her, as if I saw my mother."
[Ding, gain monthly interest favorability 10. ]
Yuexi's expression froze slightly. "Let's stop here. Priestess, please go in. Don't go out at night. It's not safe outside."
Qiao Xi nodded, watched Yuexi leave, then turned back to the room.
In the middle of the night, Josh vaguely heard the sound of water dripping, drop by drop, as if carrying his fantasy, and the room gradually became cooler.
Josh turned over and tried to pull the quilt over to cover himself, but he grabbed a handful of something furry that looked like hair.
She suddenly opened her eyes and sat up in bed.
With the moonlight seeping in from outside, the quilt is still a quilt.
She noticed that the cold atmosphere in the room was getting thicker and thicker, so she became alert, pulled the quilt over her and continued to lie down to sleep.
The sound of dripping water rang in my ears again. A strong wind gradually blew up outside, and it sounded like a woman's screaming.
Josh turned over and continued to sleep.
Suddenly, I felt a cool breeze at the back of my neck, as if a refrigerator had opened at my back.
Josh slowly opened his eyes and suddenly saw a long-haired figure standing beside the bed.
With a loud "boom", thunder sounded outside and lightning flashed across the room.
A female ghost with long black hair and white clothes appeared with lightning and disappeared in an instant.
Qiao Xi sat up and reached under the pillow to get the talisman paper, but suddenly felt a cold and stiff hand.
She suddenly retracted her hand and lifted the pillow. There was nothing under the pillow, including the talisman paper.
"Heh..." A woman's sharp laughter sounded in the room.
Qiao Xi frowned slightly, watching the blood gradually seeping out from the bamboo cracks on the four walls of the room and flowing down along the bamboo cracks.
I don’t know where the talisman paper went.
She frowned slightly and tried to mobilize her spiritual power to draw talismans in the air, but inexplicably there was nothing at her fingertips.
It was as if I suddenly became an ordinary person and lost contact with my inner elixir and spiritual power.
Josh's heart sank and he tried again.
Still no use.
The talisman was drawn in the void, but nothing came out and the illusion was not broken.
She suddenly recalled the moment before she stepped out of the ancestral hall, when something cold entered her body.
Could it be the statue of Poseidon?
Damn it!
Calm down, calm down, calm down!
She summoned her weapon calmly, her slender hands covered with white gloves.
Suddenly, the sound of a woman singing could be heard in the room.
Human figures were reflected outside the window, two shadows entangled back and forth in front of the window, and it sounded like they were singing some folk song about love, but the pronunciation was strange.
Qiao Xi frowned slightly and listened attentively to barely make out some of the meaning.
The folk song seems to be about a story about a holy priestess and a love-struck boy.
The priestess was originally a wealthy woman in the clan and lived a comfortable life. During a sea god ceremony, she met a man who worked as a handyman in the clan temple. They fell in love at first sight and agreed to elope.
The babbling sound gradually faded away.
Qiao Xi thought this was a clue and quickly got up to chase it.
As soon as I opened the window, I was faced with two stiffly stitched, bloody faces.
She was startled and subconsciously took a step back. Only then did she see clearly that they were two human-shaped lanterns.
The lanterns looked like a man and a woman, their faces looked like they were made of some kind of human skin stitched together, with the facial features crudely painted on.
It is precisely because of the poor painting skills and the blood seeping down the face that it looks even more grotesque, weird, hideous and terrifying.
Just as Qiao Xi was about to go out, she saw two lanterns with red eyes flashing and rushing towards her.
She quickly closed the window and stepped back, and the two lanterns hit the window.
Lantern was restricted in its limbs and could not move flexibly, so it could only keep hitting the window with its body, trying to break in.
Qiao Xi frowned slightly. Despite such a big commotion, the people in other rooms didn't react at all.
Even the vigilant women patrolling seemed to have suddenly disappeared.
She turned and walked towards the door.
A loud thunder sounded.
Lightning flashed, and a female ghost in white clothes with her head down appeared at the door. Through the gaps in her thick hair, a pair of the woman's eyes, staring intently, were revealed. Those eyes were actually empty, without any eyeballs at all!
Only blood kept seeping out.
Josh pulled the spider silk in his hand cautiously.
No matter what, there is still Yu Ze's spider silk. As long as she tries hard to retract the spider silk, she can escape to Yu Ze.
But now, how to get out is a problem.
The doors and windows were blocked.
Josh slowly backed away calmly.
Suddenly, a hand emerged from the ground and grabbed her ankle tightly.
Josh quickly raised his other foot and stomped hard.
The hand quickly retracted.
When she looked up again, she was face to face with the female ghost in white, their noses touching.
A strong fishy smell mixed with some kind of sea smell hit my nose.
The female ghost opened her mouth and roared at her like some kind of beast.
It revealed a mouthful of black, pus-oozing teeth, and there were various parasitic shellfish and mollusks in its mouth.
