Su Muyue wanted to erect a monument for her and personally carve the inscription, but the tip of the knife stopped on the stone slab. He looked up, annoyed and confused, "I forgot to ask her name..."
"Zhao Di." A clear and ethereal voice came from behind, "My name is Zhao Di."
The little girl's spirit appeared at some unknown time, and no one noticed.
Su Muye's eyes lit up, "You're here!"
At this moment, she seemed unafraid of the crowd. She walked to her grave and whispered, "No one has ever liked me, loved me..."
She looked at Su Muye and smiled, "Although you are also a boy, I don't dislike you. You are the only one who gives me food and treats me as a friend."
Su Muyue nodded emphatically, "I will always consider you a friend! You are my only friend!"
“However…” he frowned, “the name Zhao Di is not good.”
He asked the little girl for her opinion, "How about I change it for you?"
The little girl nodded and squatted down beside him. "I want something nice to hear."
Su Muyue glanced at Su Deng and the others, but ultimately didn't ask them for help. She racked her brains for a long time, and then her eyes lit up. "How about calling me Bai Xingxing? Look at you wearing a white dress, and your eyes are as beautiful as stars."
Qin Xian muttered to himself, "I thought he was going to come up with some shocking name..."
"Shut up." Qiao Zhi glared at him, telling him not to interrupt the two children.
"And Mom said that after people die, they all become stars in the sky. I hope you will be reincarnated and have a loving family and many good friends, shining like a star!" Su Muye's little face was full of sincerity and earnestness.
“White Star…” the little girl smiled, her eyes crinkling, “I like this name.”
Su Muyue became happy and began to carve several words on the stone tablet with force, stroke by stroke, using the dagger.
[The Tomb of the White Star]
The two children, one of whom is a ghost, are innocent and carefree, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
"You played with me before, and I promised to tell you a secret, but I haven't told you yet. Now I'll tell you," the little girl said with a smile. "The secret is that this village is cursed by infant spirits. As long as a kind person finds the ghost's body and buries it, they can be reincarnated."
Her words stunned Su Deng and the others.
"Your body is becoming transparent..." Su Muye exclaimed in surprise.
After the tombstone was erected and the grave was completed, the little girl's spirit became increasingly faint.
She smiled, her eyes sparkling like a galaxy, "I'm going to be reincarnated. Thank you for being my friend. I really like the name White Star..."
As she finished speaking, her figure completely disappeared into the night wind.
The treetops swayed, and a few withered yellow leaves fell from above.
A golden light appeared where the little girl had disappeared.
After seeing it clearly, Qin Xian's eyes widened, "The key?!"
It is indeed a key, no different from a regular key.
However, it is golden.
So, did they unintentionally achieve this result?
Without any prior warning, who would have guessed that the key would appear like this if it weren't for Su Muye?!
Su Deng and the others exchanged glances, secretly cursing the Divine Court in their hearts.
"Xiao Ye." Qiao Zhi rubbed his face and praised him happily, "You are such a kind little lucky star."
"Does that evil spirit in the shadows serve no purpose other than to scare people?" Qin Xian wondered.
"ah!"
"Quick...look!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a terrified scream came from the other side of the river.
There was no need to walk over; the group simply turned around and saw the water surging and churning in the air. The ghostly infants drowning at the bottom of the water all floated to the surface, converging together with piercing laughter and cries, forming a giant infant spirit composed of countless tiny infant spirits...
It was densely packed with eyes and mouths, a truly chilling sight.
Every eye was moving, and every mouth was either crying or laughing.
The giant hand, formed from countless other things, grabbed a player, tore him in half, threw him into its mouth, and swallowed him whole…
"My God..." Qin Xian's skin crawled all over his body again, his hair stood on end, and his legs went weak as he collapsed to the ground.
Qiao Zhi was also getting agitated.
Su Deng's pupils suddenly contracted.
Liu Sangua shielded the group behind him, saying, "These infant spirits are children who were drowned in the lake shortly after birth. They must have become evil spirits and killed and cursed everyone in the village. Now, living people have angered them..."
They were able to influence even one person, which was entirely due to Su Muye's luck.
Such a huge and terrifying evil spirit, let whoever wants to convert it convert it!
Qin Xian grabbed Liu Sangua, trembling slightly, and said, "Didn't we get the key? Let's go! Let's go!"
Without hesitation, Liu Sangua used the golden key from before, and in a flash, a golden door appeared out of thin air.
"Walk!"
He pulled Su Deng aside, letting the four of them go in first while he stayed behind.
"Door!"
"There's a chance!"
Players running this way saw it and went crazy, rushing towards it.
But one key can only be used by one team. As Liu Sangua stepped inside, the door disappeared, and they all found nothing.
