Barrage: [……? ]
Qiao Xi finished drawing the talisman paper, put it away, and pushed the door open to go out.
There were a few timid girls standing at the door; their head veils had fallen off long ago, and they were huddled together in fear.
Qiao Xi looked at them in confusion: "What are you doing?"
"There's... there's a ghost in the room!" The girl huddled beside her companion in fear and looked at her again: "Is there no ghost in your room?"
Qiao Xi raised the talisman in his hand and said, "Yes, but they were scared away by this. I put two of them at the door. I guess they won't dare to come over anymore."
"What is this? You have this thing in your room?" When the girls heard that the talisman in her hand could scare away ghosts, they couldn't help but look at the thing in her hand, with a bit of eagerness in their eyes.
Qiao Xi raised what he was holding in his hand: "No, I just drew it."
"You can draw talismans?" A girl looked at her in disbelief. She was the girl who had talked to Lulu before.
Lulu stood beside her, a little hesitant: "Zhuang Ran, how about we ask her for one and try?"
Zhuang Ran nodded and walked over: "Well, can you give us one?"
Josh smiled and said, "Sure."
The two of them lit up with joy and reached out to take it.
Qiao Xi took a step back and looked at them with a smile: "But, it's 10,000 points per ticket."
"Ten thousand points?! Why don't you go and grab it!"
Barrage: [Am I crazy or is Qiao Xi crazy? She just took a few minutes to draw a bunch of things with a pen, and she dares to ask for 10,000 points per picture? ]
【This world has gone mad.】
[Someone in the dungeon spent points to buy this thing, I'll stand upside down and eat shit! ]
[I also think, how is this possible? They are simply treating people like idiots. ]
Josh was not in a hurry to sell it to them right away.
She just shook the thing in her hand and said, "There are 30 tickets in total. While supplies last."
Anyway, this copy is full of resentment and there are many scary things.
After a period of chaos, no one dared to go back into the house.
The commotion here attracted people outside.
Some college students who were traveling here heard the noise and came over with their cell phones.
Seeing so many girls in strange costumes, I couldn't help but take pictures with my phone: "Is this a performance?"
"Go back to the house!" A scolding voice came from not far away.
The woman in charge's face instantly darkened when she saw that many priestesses had taken off their veils and were seen by outsiders.
She strode over, followed by several girls.
Several young boys were holding up their cell phones and were startled.
The person in charge walked up to one of the boys and stood in front of him. His eyes were so cold that they made people feel creepy: "Did I ever tell you not to come to the boathouse at the back?"
The boy was a little embarrassed. He was embarrassed to be criticized in public. He stiffened his neck and said unconvincedly: "I spent money to travel here, why can't I enter? Didn't you let us in here in the name of selecting a saint?"
The woman in charge had a face so gloomy that it looked like she was about to tear the boy to pieces at any moment.
She raised her hand and asked the two women beside her to drag the boy out and into a thatched hut not far away.
The boy struggled hard, even lifting his feet off the ground, but he couldn't break free from the shackles. After being dragged into the house, he became silent after a while.
This action scared everyone, and the few remaining tourists nearby were also frightened and quickly put away their phones.
All tourists were driven away.
"Aunt Yuexi, all the outsiders have left." The little girl next to her walked to the woman in charge.
Yuexi nodded slightly, and looked at the people present expressionlessly, and pointed: "She, she, and her, their faces were seen by men, they are not clean, drag them away."
"Yes!" The women dragged out several priestesses without veils on their heads, including a player, with expressionless faces.
There were 30 priestesses in total, and four of them were dragged away.
Qiao Xi watched calmly as the priestesses were also dragged into a thatched hut not far away, from which screams and cries were soon heard.
After a moment, everything returned to calm.
The player didn't know what happened to him either.
Yuexi looked at them expressionlessly: "If you want to be elected as a saint, the most important thing is holiness. I hope you understand this. An unclean body is not worthy of living."
Qiao Xi didn't say anything. It seemed that one of the strong rules of this copy was that their faces could not be seen by men.
These people are weird too...
She looked at the women around Yuexi calmly. They moved stiffly and had no expression on their faces, which was really weird.
If blinking infrequently is a habit for a person, then it is very problematic since almost all the Moon Clan members she saw were like that.
Unless... they don't need to blink, or they have forgotten the normal blinking frequency.
Blinking once every 30 seconds to 1 minute is not normal behavior.
In the afternoon, all the priestesses must go to the ancestral temple to meet the old saint and receive their practice tasks from her.
Everyone gathered at the door and was led to the ancestral hall by Yuexi.
Josh mingled in the team, looking around calmly.
They didn't meet any men along the way, and almost all they saw were women.
It is women who do the dirty and tiring work outside, women who work in the fields, and even women who manage things.
But there are children playing everywhere, which means there are still men in this place.
I don’t know where Yuzawa and the others were sent.
We originally came here to improve our tacit understanding, but now it’s difficult for us to meet.
Qiao Xi looked around calmly. This small village was clearly in the mountains, but there were boathouse structures everywhere, and fishing nets, shells, and fish head-shaped tools were placed in front of the doors.
It's more like a fishing village by the sea.
But this place is surrounded by mountains, what’s the use of these things?
This fishing village seems to have been forgotten by time, stagnant in some distant era.
There are pebbles everywhere, which have been polished to be extremely round.
Even weirder.
Where do the pebbles come from in such a dense forest?
The atmosphere around was eerie and terrifying, as if an unknown terror would strike from the darkness at any time.
Although it is a forest surrounded by mountains on three sides, the gloomy environment is filled with cold sea breeze and a faint fishy smell, which makes people shudder.
Whether it was the woman who led them to the ancestral hall, or the other villagers passing by, they were all like puppets being pulled by invisible strings. Not only were their movements stiff, but their faces were also expressionless, making it impossible to detect any life in them.
Josh couldn't help but think of the human-shaped lantern that rolled out of Lulu's room before.
To be honest, it doesn't make sense for a human-shaped lantern to appear in such a place.
Qiao Xi looked up at the tree canopy, and vaguely saw various white strips hanging down from the canopy, like things used in funerals.
This small village is full of weirdness.
