C77 (1/2)
Silence.
In the huge courtyard, chants rose and fell as the air seemed to freeze.
As the sun set in the west, the setting sun illuminated half of Midsummer's sky. Red light rose from hundreds of thousands of feet away from the ground, rolling across half of the House of Ye like flames. Ye Jinsu opened her eyes and saw that the color of the sky had changed.
Dark clouds were rolling up again in the east.
Clouds rolled and moved, and the sky rose and fell.
A series of small exclamations came from all directions. The old lady opened her quivering eyelids and looked up at the blood-red sky. Her eyes were filled with tears.
What a sight this was.
How many evenings like this could there be? The setting sun was as red as blood.
This was the manifestation of the incense stick.
Ye Jinsu raised her head to look at the half of the dark cloud and lowered her head in silence. Ye Jingru had long since stopped looking at her, and just like the others, she raised her head to look at the sky. Occasionally, they would look at the Xie Clan with shocked and slightly flustered expressions.
At this time, it was definitely not a good thing.
Lady Xie lowered her head.
On the other hand, Lil 'Red was very excited as it looked at Ye Jinsu with its eyes glowing. However, Ye Jinshu could not smile and looked at Xiao Hong without a change in his expression.
The smile on Little Red's face fell at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye. There was a trace of heaviness between Ye Jinsu's brows, causing Little Red to not understand what was happening.
Ye Jinxiu sighed and turned her head to look ahead.
After the first part of the scripture was finished, several high monks were also attracted by this extremely coincidental phenomenon, and they all raised their heads to look. Ye Zhenzi also stood up in shock and stuck his head out to look.
The east wind began to blow.
From the east, the dark clouds were approaching menacingly. A sudden gust of cold wind on a summer evening was unusual.
The wind swept up the Spirit Flag, the remaining incense on the table, and the paper money that was half burnt on the ground.
The one who burned the paper money was a little girl. The paper money was still on fire, so it was rolled up and directly pounced onto her. The firelight almost touched her hair. Luckily, she was able to dodge quickly.
But a scream was inevitable.
It frightened most people, including Ye Jinsu.
The scream was too sharp, too shrill. It pierced through the clouds and went straight for everyone's ears. The Xie Clan's heart was already in their throats, they were so frightened that their legs went limp.
The atmosphere instantly became tense and then relaxed.
The paper money burned up in the air and slowly fell down.
Ye Zheng's face darkened as he slammed the table. He was obviously frightened as well. ”Get out!”
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Ye Jinsu looked at the ashes with an expressionless face, but the wind had not stopped.
Ye Jinsu didn't even hear a word of Ye Jin Su as he tried to ease the awkward situation. He could only see the dark clouds drifting by in the sky. The candles were lit, and the pale tears were on the verge of falling.
”Bang ~ ~ ~”
With a loud sound, the incense fell down and fell onto the table. The offered fruits and chickens were smashed to the table and the censer was smashed to the ground. It lost its balance and fell to the ground.
White candle tears spilled over the table, just as they were about to light up the banner.
The servant girl at the side was quite quick-witted, quickly picking up the candle with her sleeve.
The white candle along with the candlestick was thrown to the ground, extinguishing the flame.
Everyone's hearts, which had just been set down, suddenly rose again.
The old lady was even more so.
