Shocking! The master of metaphysics is actually the ancestor of ghosts and monsters!

"What! We have to go back again!" Nangong Qian was utterly dejected. Why did they have to go back so soon after arriving here? She was exhausted. Qiao Feng had been carrying this bag for her, and it was filled with all sorts of random things.

Girls' things are just heavy!

"Yes." Jing Li sighed, looking at her feet, which were red from being rubbed raw, with a troubled expression. The original owner was really poor... She needed to make money after leaving this world, because in her memories, one couldn't survive without money.

After Nangong Qian let out a wail, she attracted the attention of many villagers.

Fearing Jing Li's strangeness, no one dared to step forward.

Nangong Qian's forehead was covered in fine sweat. Her windbreaker was tied around her waist. She opened her backpack, took out a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Jing Li. Then she took out another bottle and gulped it down. She didn't even have time to ask Jing Li why.

Jingli was somewhat surprised as she held the bottled water, recalling the water tank from her memory.

After finishing her water, Nangong Qian rummaged through her things again, found her shoes, and handed them to Jing Li, saying, "Here! These are shoes that are exclusively for me."

Jingli was puzzled and stared at the shoe.

"What do you mean? You're looking down on my shoes? These are brand new! If it weren't for your red toes, I wouldn't have given them to you." She had finally begged her older brother to buy them for her; they cost 300,000 yuan...

We've lost out, we've really lost a lot of money.

"What is this?" Jing Li pointed to the chibi-style figure, which was inlaid with diamonds.

"What else could it be! Diamonds!" Nangong Qian thought she was referring to diamonds.

Jing Li shook her head. "No, it's this!"

Her fair and smooth fingers pointed to the pattern.

"What's wrong, Mi?"

"It's alright, it's quite cute, thank you. I won't let you die!" Jing Li said gently, putting on her shoes and fastening her shoelaces as she remembered. Having taken someone else's things, she had to do her job well.

The original owner's karmic connection with her wasn't actually that deep, so she could have ignored it, but she just found the little girl quite pleasing to the eye.

"Hmph~" Nangong Qian watched as Jing Li put on her shoes, looking like she had gotten a great deal, and then heard what Jing Li said.

Her face flushed red, she clutched her heart, trying to calm herself and reassure herself that it was okay, she was just a young girl who spoke without thinking, and she shouldn't take it to heart.

"Let's go, they'll come looking for us tonight." Jing Li had already put on her shoes and glanced around at the villagers who were observing them from a distance.

"Who is it?" Nangong Qian's brain cells were about to explode from keeping her in suspense every time.

Jing Li said softly, "The answer will be revealed tonight. Let's go somewhere."

......

......

At Shenshi (3-5 PM), the sun had already set in the west.

"Are you sure it's over there?"

"Yes, Old Wang saw her enter the Qin family's ancestral home. He asked several people, and they all saw it too."

"Then let's go now."

Several people were sneaking around the village, each carrying a machete.

"Gao Lin, are we really going?" the shifty-eyed man asked cautiously.

"Wu Gang, this is the village chief's order. Do you dare disobey?" Gao Lin threatened him by invoking the village chief's name.

The others didn't dare to speak either.

Wu Gang still wanted to protest, "What if she really is possessed by the Qin family's daughter? What about us..."

His tone carried a hint of fear, and the others' expressions changed.

"What are you afraid of! Don't we have a bronze mirror? The bronze god will protect us." Gao Lin took out a bronze mirror. The mirror was blurry and couldn't reflect any specific image, but it was unusually cold.

Mentioning the Bronze God, the group felt quite confident.

Wu Gang opened and closed his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately closed it again, cursing Gao Lin inwardly as a selfish bastard who wouldn't let them use the bronze mirror since it was only in his possession.

In the evening, only a few houses in Hehuan Village still had their lights on, with old-fashioned pear-shaped light bulbs emitting a pale yellow light. Most villagers had already turned off their lights and gone to sleep.

Darkness fell unusually quickly today. During their conversation, the corners of the house could only be seen by the moonlight, and the surroundings were shrouded in mist. An invisible fear seemed to be quietly spreading in the shadows of the house.

Suddenly, a light, airy voice entered Gao Lin's ears.

"Gao Lin."

"Gao Lin."

"Who the hell called me?" Gao Lin looked suspiciously at the people beside him.

The others were startled by Gao Lin's shout.

"No, no, Brother Gao Lin, we didn't call you." One of them shrank back and looked around.

They exchanged a glance and both noticed the doubt in each other's eyes.

“No…” Wu Gang’s fear was stirred up again.

Gao Lin pinched his forehead. Could it be that he was hallucinating because of what happened yesterday?

"Hurry up and go." Gao Lin tightened his grip on the bronze mirror in his arms and urged.

Wu Gang didn't want to go looking for that strange woman anymore. They had already gone more than halfway, and Gao Lin would never allow them to turn back now.

As the group moved around, Gao Lin heard a woman's voice behind him again.

"Gao Lin..."

The sound was getting closer and closer to him.

"Gao Lin..."

Getting closer.

Meanwhile, others also heard someone calling them.

They all looked at each other.

Did you hear that?

"Um......"

Without prior arrangement, everyone's eyes were filled with fear, and a chill ran down their spines.

"Whoever's playing tricks, I'll kill them!" Gao Lin wandered around aimlessly, holding a bronze mirror and looking at himself indiscriminately.

After he left the crowd.

The next second, the others fell to the ground, their chests riddled with dark, bowl-sized holes, but no blood flowed out; their hearts had vanished, and blood was streaming from their faces, leaving them with unseeing eyes.

Upon noticing his companion, Wu Gang was clearly terrified, and he tried his best to suppress the urge to turn around.

"Wu Gang..." As soon as these words were spoken, Wu Gang felt someone pat his shoulder, and a chill instantly spread from the top of his head to his entire body.

"what!!!"

Wu Gang ran towards Gao Lin without paying any attention, his eyes fixed on the bronze mirror. He couldn't see what was behind him, only a red hem emitting black energy.

Taking advantage of Gao Lin's inattention, he snatched the bronze mirror and, without pausing, returned the way he came.

"Wu Gang!!!" Gao Lin shouted, his anger and panic at losing the bronze mirror. "Give me back the bronze mirror," he stammered.

The surrounding air instantly became suffocating.

"Gao Lin..." The voice seemed to ring in his ears.

"Gao Lin...why did you lie to me...?"

"Don't turn around. Someone is telling you not to turn around in the middle of the night," Gao Lin muttered with his eyes closed.

"Why did you betray me..." The mournful words echoed around Gao Lin, his back felt cold, and something was pressing against him.

He lowered his head and slowly moved his gaze downwards, his pupils suddenly contracting as the red wedding dress came into view.

He knelt down abruptly, clasped his hands together, and begged, "Xiao Lan, please let me go! I was forced into this. It's that old man's fault. If you want to find someone, find him. Don't come after me..."

He looked up and was suddenly met with a pale face, green eyes, and a sinister, eerie gaze fixed on him.
