Chapter 133: Full Moon Night
A sense of unease crept up my spine.
Sheng Ran lifted the black cloak covering her body, stood up and walked out of the cave.
Yun Ling hadn't realized what she was going to do yet, so he couldn't help but ask, "Wife, what's wrong?"
"Where is Pei Xiaoxing?" Sheng Ran's voice was still a little trembling.
Yun Ling was stunned for a moment and looked outside: "Just now he said he would go to guard outside, and then he left through the cave entrance. He should be nearby."
There was also a hint of uncertainty in his tone.
Because he suddenly recalled that Pei Xiaoxing's expression looked a little strange when he said these two sentences.
He looked noticeably paler than usual, and his expression was restrained, as if he was enduring something.
Yun Ling frowned: "I'll go take a look."
"I'll go with you." Sheng Ran said immediately.
The fear in the dream has not yet dissipated, and she is now particularly afraid that something might happen to the people around her.
The rain outside the cave has stopped, and a full moon hangs in the sky, its bright light filling the mountains and forests.
not good--
"Full moon night!"
How could she forget about this!
Seeing the two of them about to leave, Zhu Jiuyin briefly inquired about the situation and then stood up. "Wife, we'll go look for them. You stay in the cave first."
How could Sheng Ran feel at ease?
"It will be more efficient if we act separately." She said this quickly and started to look outside the cave.
The two beastly husbands wanted to accompany her, but Sheng Ran rejected them in an anxious tone.
"No need to follow me, the most urgent thing is to find him!"
The system's voice sounded at the right time, giving Sheng Ran a sense of peace of mind, [Host, I will always be here! ]
Sheng Ran remained calm and rational, raised his hand to divide the area into three areas, and directed them to go in different directions.
As soon as she turned a ridge, she heard a suppressed groan.
After recognizing this familiar voice, Sheng Ran didn't even breathe a sigh of relief before her heart skipped a beat due to the painful emotion in the voice.
"Pei Xiaoxing!" Sheng Ran's face changed and he quickened his pace.
Exploring deeper into the forest, after passing an old locust tree, Sheng Ran saw a scene that chilled her whole body.
Pei Xiaoxing curled up on the ground, his whole body shaking violently, his silver-white wolf ears popping out uncontrollably, and bright red blood oozing from between his fingers.
His eyes were tightly closed, his brows were twisted into a "川" shape, as if he was in great pain, and he kept making meaningless growls from his mouth, with the ferocity unique to the wolf clan.
Sheng Ran rushed over to help him, but was stopped by the system's voice.
[Don't go over there!] The mechanical voice in my mind was terrifyingly solemn. [His curse has taken effect!]
"Of course I know, but how can I just ignore it!"
Sheng Ran ignored the system's dissuasion and ran towards the man struggling in pain on the ground, feeling extremely heartbroken.
He must have sensed something was wrong, which was why he ran here alone, afraid of hurting her.
Pei Xiaoxing fell to the ground in a mess before he noticed her approaching, his hair soaked with cold sweat.
Seeing this scene up close, Sheng Ran's heart skipped a beat. Before she could think of a solution, something even worse happened -
A burst of wolf howls came from a distance, followed by responses one after another, so dense that it seemed as if dozens of wolves were gathering here.
The system's tone became panicked. [Oh no! The cursed aura has attracted the wolves!]
Sheng Ran looked around in confusion. She had never heard Pei Xiaoxing mention it before.
Does he get through every full moon night like this?
Just let the wild wolves in the mountains bully you?
[Host, please return to the cave first! Those wolves probably don't dare to harm Pei Xiaoxing, they must be coming for you!]
"No!" Sheng Ran looked at Pei Xiaoxing lying on the ground, then looked at the countless pairs of green eyes that lit up in the darkness in the distance, gritted her teeth, and said, "Let's go together!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Pei Xiaoxing on the ground suddenly opened his eyes.
His hair stood up and became even stiffer, and then he looked up.
Those usually gentle silver pupils were now bloodshot, having lost all rationality, leaving only the ferocious gleam of a wild beast.
He stared at Sheng Ran, showing his sharp teeth, growling threateningly from his throat, and slowly arched his body like a beast ready to pounce.
"Pei Xiaoxing?" Sheng Ran called out tentatively, trying to awaken her reason, feeling both scared and painful in her heart.
The male beast didn't respond, but just pounced on her!
[Host, be careful!] The system wanted to stop it but had no way to do so. It could only watch as Pei Xiaoxing's sharp claws were about to fall on Sheng Ran.
Sheng Ran subconsciously closed her eyes, but the expected pain didn't come. She opened her eyes and found that Pei Xiaoxing's movements had stopped in mid-air, his pupils contracted violently, as if he was struggling.
The copper bell on her waist began to shake violently at some point, making a rapid "ding-ling-ling" sound.
That was the bell Tu Shanyi left for her before he left.
——"It can put people into a temporary mental predicament, and at a critical moment, they can use it to escape."
When he said this, Sheng Ran never thought that he was guarding against Pei Xiaoxing.
He actually protected her at this moment.
At this moment, the bell sounded like it had some kind of magic power, not only slowing down Pei Xiaoxing's movements, but also causing the wolves in the distance to stop, with a trace of confusion flashing in their green eyes.
"It works!" Without time to sigh, Sheng Ran was surprised and happy by the changes she saw. She tightly grasped the bell, trying to make it ring louder.
But Pei Xiaoxing's struggle was only temporary. He was soon controlled by the curse again. He let out a more ferocious growl from his throat and pounced on her again.
This time, there was no hesitation in his eyes, only pure murderous intent.
Sheng Ran knew in her heart that ordinary obstruction was useless.
She suddenly remembered that in the inn in Beining City, Zhu Jiuyin suffered the pain of his soul being torn apart. In desperation, she kissed him and fed him medicine to stop Zhu Jiuyin's pain.
Perhaps, it wasn't the medicine that generated the power, but her?
Although Pei Xiaoxing's curse is different, it is essentially the loss of control of energy...
A crazy idea formed in her mind.
Sheng Ran suddenly stood on tiptoe towards the direction where Pei Xiaoxing was rushing towards, and kissed him.
The moment their lips touched, time seemed to stand still.
Pei Xiaoxing's body suddenly stiffened, as if he was under a spell.
Sheng Ran could clearly feel his body trembling, the suppressed growl in his throat, and the remaining struggle in his eyes that belonged to "Pei Xiaoxing".
She didn't pull back, instead she deepened the kiss.
She could feel a warm power surging from her body, flowing along the place where her lips and teeth met, and continuously injected into Pei Xiaoxing's body.
It was a wonderful feeling, like the melting snow in spring, gently soaking the dry land.
The hostility in Pei Xiaoxing's body faded at a speed visible to the naked eye. His swollen muscles slowly calmed down, the bloodshot in his silver pupils gradually dissipated, and his wolf ears and sharp claws also slowly disappeared.
He looked at Sheng Ran who was so close to him, his eyes changed from confusion to shock, and finally to deep disbelief.
"Wife, I..."
Sheng Ran didn't let go of Pei Xiaoxing until she felt he had completely calmed down.
Their foreheads touched, their breaths intertwined, and they could see the turmoil in each other's eyes.
