Funerary Lady Jin Xiu 35070K 2022-07-20

There were many kinds of people who lived in vain. There were countless carpenters, coffinmakers, mourners, and coffin bearers.

Actually, as long as one lived in vain, no matter what they did, there would be a certain amount of risk. After all, they were not just eating in the mortal world.

The adoptive father had once said that doing useless things was like walking around in the Yin-Yang world and eating food from the living and eating food from the dead.

Thus, most experienced old masters would learn one or two life-saving skills. After all, they were not afraid of ten thousand, but only afraid of one.

Liu Songxian had carried a coffin for so many years, it was not strange for him to have such a consummate skill.

However, the surrounding sounds had become restless. Waves of whistling wind were resounding in my ears …

I felt a genuine fear that I might lose my life at any moment.

The sound of thunder and the sound of wind mixed together. At this moment, I suddenly saw a figure quickly shuttling through the forest, bringing with it a wave of strange laughter …

My breathing became heavier and heavier, and at that moment, I could almost hear the sound of my own heart beating. I looked at Liu Songxian who was at the side.

At this moment, his eyes were filled with nervousness as he looked at his surroundings in panic.

It wasn't the first time that I wanted to stand up and continue escaping, but Liu Songxian had already suppressed me.

From the looks of it, he seemed to have some confidence in this move.

Suddenly, I felt as if something was slowly approaching my ear.

He couldn't see it with his eyes, but he could clearly feel it. Perhaps, this was also a woman's intuition …

At the same time, I felt a chill spreading in my surroundings and my ears... It was as if someone was breathing heavily …

I could even smell a rotten smell around me, as if at this moment... Something is right in front of me, but I... But he couldn't see it!

My body uncontrollably trembled. At this moment, the fear in my heart had already reached its limit, and at this moment, Liu Songxian's grip on my wrist tightened.

It was as though I was worried that I would suddenly jump out of fear. However, I calmed myself down and took a deep breath.

Right now, I have no other choice but to trust this person in front of me.

After around fifteen minutes, the surrounding sound gradually calmed down. At this time, I saw that the black mud on Liu Songxian's forehead had actually turned slightly purple, as if it was mixed with the color of blood …

After which, I realized that the mud on my forehead had the same color.

It seems like what happened just now wasn't an illusion. In that instant, beside us … There really is something...

After knowing this, my entire body turned cold. I took in a deep breath as I felt everything around me.

It seemed like … After he truly calmed down, Liu Songxian, who was beside him, also let out a sigh of relief and said:

”It's finally over, but it scared me.”

At this time, I had also escaped Liu Songxian's grasp, and asked coldly:

”Why are you here? At this time, shouldn't you be at the Old Bull Village? ”

At this time, Liu Songxian also dragged me and ran down the mountain.

”I'll explain all of this later. It's better to leave the mountain as soon as possible!”

At this moment, I can already be said to have broken Funerary Lady's rules. I didn't complete the night watch, but … There seemed to be no other way.

After Liu Songxian arrived at the foot of the mountain, just as I was about to speak, I heard a series of bell sounds coming from the village.

The sound of the bell was melodious, and it seemed to be coming from the very center of the village, resounding throughout the entire village.

At the same time, amidst the melodious ringing of the bell, crisp ringing of bells could be heard. Although the sound wasn't loud, it sounded as if it was ringing in my ears, and was extremely distinct.

When I heard such a voice, I couldn't help but furrow my brows again. At this time, Liu Songxian turned around and asked in a strange voice:

”What's the matter with you?”

At this moment, my face was extremely unsightly, with a hint of strangeness and rigidity.

It should be around three in the morning by now. What kind of bell would ring at this time?

Moreover, with such a loud and clear bell, it must be an extremely large bell. However, there was no such large bell in the village …

In other words, where did this sound come from? Why did it suddenly ring?
