Inside the small western-style building.
Chu Qingya and the other seven had been driving for the entire day, and since they couldn't drive on the mountain road, they finally walked in the dark. They were already exhausted, and of course they fell into a deep sleep after touching the bed and pillow.
They had no idea that someone was leaving or coming after they fell asleep.
The person who came over was the old man, who was also the village chief of Liuhun Village.
He was holding a strange-looking red lantern in his hand. After he came over, he did not go into the room immediately, but instead stuck to the windows one by one to listen to the sounds inside.
After making sure that everyone inside was asleep, he squatted down tremblingly and lifted a corner of the red lantern in his hand to reveal the wick inside.
If someone came out at this time, they would definitely see——
There was a human face with a strange smile growing on the wick!
As soon as the human face wick was revealed, the old man quickly stood up tremblingly, and then pointed the human face wick towards the window.
After the aim was right, the old man showed a flattering smile on his face: "Madam, I have prepared a sumptuous dinner for you, please enjoy it."
But after he finished speaking, he did not hear any response from the human-faced wick, nor did he see any living person's soul being sucked out of the window.
The old man was stunned when he saw it, but he didn't think much about it. Instead, he raised the red lantern again and aimed it more accurately at the window.
And repeated what he had just said.
But after repeating it, there was still no movement in the red lanterns or the window!
Upon seeing this, the old man frowned, and a look of doubt appeared on his wrinkled face.
He rolled his eyes.
Then he simply put the red lantern on the ground, walked to the door quietly, and reached out to push it open to take a look.
But as soon as his hand touched the door handle, it felt like he had touched a red-hot iron pan, and he screamed "Ah"!
"My hand--!" The old man quickly shook his hand, but no matter how he shook it, the burning sensation on his hand continued and became more and more intense!
Soon, the old man's face became distorted with pain, and a sharp and unpleasant sound came from his mouth, which sounded very much like... a ghost's cry.
Jiang also felt a little disgusted after hearing this.
She raised her hand and threw Ji Sheng and the man to the old man's feet. After scaring the old man, she flew down from the branch and looked at him with cold eyes: "You are a living person, but in order to gain immortality, you are willing to become a slave to a fierce ghost, becoming half human, half ghost, and can never leave the Soul-Liu Village."
“Is it worth it?”
What?
The old man was already frightened, and when he lowered his head to look at Ji Sheng and the other two, he suddenly heard Jiang Ye speak, and he immediately raised his head in surprise!
But after seeing that Jiang Ye was just a beautiful little girl, he felt relieved, and his gaze towards Jiang Ye became vicious.
He sneered, "Worth it? Of course it's worth it! Although I can't leave Soul Village, I can live forever!"
"As for you, a little girl who hasn't even grown all her hair yet, you actually dared to come to my place in the middle of the night. I think you don't want to live anymore!"
After he finished speaking, he wanted to attack Jiang Ye.
But when he reached out his hand, he found...
"What's going on? Why don't my magic spells work?" The old man looked terrified!
The next second, he continued to try as if he couldn't believe it but didn't want to give up, but no matter how he tried, there was still no response.
In fact, because he moved too forcefully, the hand that was previously burned now felt even more severe pain!
"Ah--!" The old man could no longer bear it, and his whole body fell directly to his knees on the ground, his old face full of pain and panic.
At this moment, no matter how stupid he was, he realized that the little girl in front of him was not an ordinary person, and it was her who did it just now!
Thinking of this, the old man quickly and with difficulty got up and tried to run to the other side.
But as soon as he turned around, he was blocked by an invisible barrier.
With a "bang", the old man saw stars and his whole body flew backwards!
With another "bang", the old man fell heavily to the ground, and a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out from the corner of his mouth!
"You--!" He covered his heart with his hands, gasping for breath, and stared at Jiang Ye with fear and anger.
What kind of monster is this?
He looks so young, but his methods are so powerful!
He has been practicing with the Empress for more than a hundred years. No ordinary Taoist priest could have injured him so badly!
Jiang didn't answer. Instead, he looked down at him and said, "Although you are a living person, you have been colluding with the evil spirit Su Xi for one hundred and four years. In these one hundred and four years, you have killed three hundred and fifty-seven people for Su Xi. Your crimes are truly heinous."
"Since you think it's worth it, then take this worthiness with you and die together."
After saying that, she snapped her fingers lightly at the old man.
Almost instantly, the old man began to tremble violently, and his entire body seemed to be thrown into a vacuum environment, becoming more and more suffocated and narrow.
In just a few seconds, the old man turned from a half-human, half-ghost state into a piece of paper.
With a "bang", it exploded!
After dealing with the old man, Jiang Ye raised his hand to remove the barriers around several houses and—
With a wave of his hand, he wrapped up the seven people who were still sleeping.
The seven people were still having sweet dreams when they were suddenly forcibly wrapped up and made to sit on the ground with a "click". They were stunned for a moment.
