Funerary Lady Jin Xiu 34500K 2022-07-20

The frantic and twisted screams echoed throughout the village. It was impossible to tell who the voices belonged to.

I felt a chill run down my spine. What happened? Where did this sound come from?

Beside me, there was a person who didn't even believe in Phase s. The waves of miserable screams made me even more afraid and I didn't dare to continue walking forward.

Fear, despair, and all sorts of emotions were mixed within this scream. Just what kind of pain did it feel to make someone cry out like that?

Actually, if it was before, hearing such a voice, I might have really gone over to take a look.

But now, I don't have this courage anymore. Too many things have happened and it has already stretched my spirit.

”I'm going home.” I said this to Liu Songxian woodenly, and then I was about to leave.

At this time, Liu Songxian asked:

”Girl, you yourself … Can you do it? ”

”Fine, at least it's safer than following you around. However, today's matter …” I still have to thank you. ”

As I spoke, I ran in the direction of my home without looking back. At that time, I had also thought about it, Liu Songxian was a foreigner, if his entire body was wet, how could he live there in the middle of the night.

I do have a few empty houses, but... If they brought him back with them, they would either lure the wolf into the house or cause gossip if someone saw them.

Right now, I am alone and unable to protect myself. How can I care about others?

After a slight hesitation, I ran back home without looking back.

Looking at Liu Songxian's expression, he doesn't intend to tell me what he knows.

Of course, if it all ends like this, it doesn't matter whether I know the truth or not.

However … Can I go over? I can't remember the first time I ever asked such a question.

Very quickly, I returned home. I changed my clothes and directly slipped into the blanket. I didn't know if it was due to the cold or the fear, but my body was trembling.

The hideous appearance of my foster father's corpse continuously echoed in my mind, as well as the sinister face that I saw tonight.

And tonight, I have already violated the Funerary Lady's rules, so before I could finish keeping watch, I ran back.

At that time, because of the fear in his heart, he didn't care too much about it. However, when he recalled it now, he felt some lingering fear.

There were several rules in this life that could not be violated, because all of these were just like a ritual that had been passed down for thousands of years by the ancestors!

No one knew what the consequences would be if they violated the rules.

The adoptive father normally looks crazy, as if he doesn't care about anything, but in terms of rules, I always feel that he sees things more important than his own life.

He curled up within the blanket like a wounded lamb. The wounds on his body were already starting to hurt. This pain was akin to tearing his heart and tearing his lungs apart …

The thunder outside continued to thunder and lightning unceasingly, continuing to thunder, causing my heart to become extremely gloomy.

The rolling thunder, on the other hand, caused the glass to emit a buzzing sound …

It was almost four in the morning, and I was so tired that I fell asleep in a daze.

But I didn't sleep very deeply. I was in a daze, as if I saw my foster father, as if I saw a Aunt Zhang.

It was like he saw his childhood self, carefree and happy …

And the happiness had already passed?

I feel very uncomfortable, there are tears flowing out of the corner of my eyes, not only the heart is very uncomfortable, also the body is very uncomfortable.

He had been in a half-dreaming state, and his mind was in a daze. Strange scenes constantly appeared before his eyes.

My body felt even hotter, and I realized that I must have been sick from the torment of my body and mind.

After an unknown period of time, I suddenly felt that the sky had just brightened when I heard someone knocking on the door. The knocking sound was very loud.

Judging from the voice, the person is definitely here with malicious intent. However, the more it is like this, the more I need to go out and take a look.

Standing up abruptly, I felt waves of dizziness. At this moment, the fever had not subsided yet. My entire body felt cold. My entire body felt weak and drowsy.
