Legend of Xianghuang

Chapter 52 Ghost walk (5)

"Wanwan, come in!" Xianghuang immediately grabbed Wanwan's hand, pulled her into the room, and closed the door.

She wasn't the only one. The sound of closing doors on the street one after another, and the sound of knocking on wood hit everyone's heart, making people even more flustered.

The people of Zailai Town have lived here for generations, and they have long been accustomed to this cruel three-day sacrifice, but they also wait and see with indifference in their numbness.

As long as one or two people are sacrificed, the entire town can be prosperous and happy for a year.

Who wouldn't?They were lucky that it would not be their own family's turn to sacrifice, and they rejoiced at the death of others.

Even when it was my turn, even though I was sad, I didn't struggle much.

They are used to the three-day sacrifice every year, and they go home early and close the doors and windows, waiting for the night of the ghosts to pass.

They never thought that there would be a day, even before the preparations were completed, a sudden change would occur, day and night.

There is no day, and a hundred ghosts will go.

The wind in the town is getting stronger and stronger, and the temperature seems to drop a lot all of a sudden.

After closing the doors and windows tightly, Xiang Huang turned to Xu Xiu'er and said, "I didn't bolt the door. If old man Xu rushes back, he can come in. Now let's go to the back room first."

She also felt the danger outside, the suppressed violent breath, as if she was only waiting for the last moment to be released.

"Before I come here, I want to hear about Zailai Town's real past." Wanwan suddenly added.

Xianghuang glanced at Wanwan in surprise, only to see that her lips were pursed, and her beautiful phoenix eyes were also stern.

She couldn't help feeling a little puzzled, wondering about Wanwan's unusual feeling at the moment.Since old man Xu wanted them to sacrifice on his behalf, he naturally wouldn't tell everything.

But, is this past important to the current situation?

"Okay." Xu Xiu'er nodded, agreed, suppressed the anxiety in her heart, and walked to the back room.

Xianghuang was brought back to his mind, and temporarily put aside Wanwan's abnormality.

Looking at Xianghuang's back, Wanwan let her lead her in, but a complex look flashed in her eyes.

She must know this question.From the evil and ghostly aura outside the town, she could also distinguish the strong and crazy resentment.This is not something ordinary ghosts can explain.

This activity of the Hundred Ghosts must have some connection with Zai Lai Town.

No matter what, with so many ghosts, if I want to protect Xianghuang, I'm afraid I have to use all my strength.

That's all there is to it.

Even though she was sure that she would rather reveal her identity for the sake of Xianghuang's safety, Wanwan couldn't help but twitch in her heart when she thought of all the possible consequences in the future.

"Wanwan, Wanwan?" Xianghuang's voice came, bringing Wanwan back to her senses, her face was obviously worried, "Wanwan, your complexion is very bad, what's wrong?"

The evil aura carried by the ghosts is getting heavier and heavier, and Xianghuang can't help worrying about Wanwan's physique.

Wanwan smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, I'm just worried." She looked at Xu Xiu'er again, "Go ahead."

Xu Xiuer nodded: "What Grandpa said is the truth, but he concealed some things."

"At the beginning, the reason why that person left Xujia Village was not just because of his breath. He overheard his parents discussing to give up his useless son to support the remaining children, so he simply stole the family's food at night. Leave. And when I came back with the news of the Hundred Ghosts Land, I found that my parents, younger siblings had starved to death, and the house had been turned into a mess."

"At that time, every family had only so much food in storage. No one knew how long the drought would last, and no one was willing to donate even a little food to that family."

"Grandpa said that at that time, the villagers were worried that he would not tell them the method, but he did not expect that he stayed in the empty house for one night, and brought the villagers to the place the next day, and dug it out of the soil. Take out a jug of wine, saying that it was just buried before he left."

"Everyone in the village was stunned. It didn't take long for everyone to agree to move here, and gradually became rich with wine."

"However, one day after a year, the man suddenly seemed to be crazy. He smiled and moved the wine to the center of the town, and scattered several jars of good wine on the ground, as if drinking with others. The next day, He even took all the money in the family to buy livestock, slaughtered them there, and on the third day—"

Xu Xiu'er trembled, her voice trembling: "On the third day, he died there. There were deep knife marks on his wrists and ankles, and the blood flowed all over the place."

Before Xu Xiu'er finished speaking, there was a sudden scream outside, extremely shrill.

The three of them were startled, and Xu Xiu'er even covered her ears and bowed her head into a ball.

Xiang Huang stood up, took out a few Dao Talismans from the Qiankun Pendant and handed them to Wanwan: "Don't use them yet, if you really break into the house, you can stick these on the doors and windows of the back room."

With that said, she wanted to leave the back room and go to the front.

"Little Bamboo!" Wanwan hurriedly stood up, grabbed Xianghuang and wanted to go with her.

But Xianghuang turned around, his eyes were full of refusal.

This is the first time Wanwan has seen Xianghuang's expression that has no room for change. She is no longer so soft that she obeys Wanwan unconditionally. She has made a decision and will never change it.

Seeing Xianghuang's expression, Wanwan finally let go of her hand, smiling a bit ugly.

She stepped forward and hugged Xianghuang: "You...be careful yourself, if you can't do it, run away."

"Don't worry, there may be nothing wrong." Xiang Huang was stunned for a moment, then hugged Wan Wan back with a smile, and returned to the cute and cute little bamboo before, "Maybe, they won't break in. And ah , I still have a baby to protect me."

Letting go of Xianghuang, Wanwan seemed to back away, watching Xianghuang give a soft response, watching her turn away with a smile, and close the door.

Xiao Zhuzi was so dumb, of course she wouldn't know what she was referring to, not just now.

And after that, maybe there will no longer be the experience of her watching over her.The spooky aura outside was getting stronger and stronger, so strong that even Wanwan herself was overwhelmed with shock.

She has been cultivating ghosts for thousands of years, but she is still not sure that she can repel all these ghosts.

However, she will always try her best.

If you survived, we will talk about what happened later.

"That... are you okay?" Xu Xiu'er's trembling voice sounded from behind.

Wanwan turned her head and frowned slightly: "Why do you ask that?" What's wrong with her?

Xu Xiu'er seemed startled by Wanwan's expression, she trembled a bit before saying, "You, you seem to be shaking very badly."

trembling?Wanwan glanced at herself and smiled.

It turned out that she was really trembling, she was afraid.

Xu Xiu'er stared blankly at Wanwan, a strange person.

She suddenly smiled, such a beautiful smile, even the most beautiful unknown red flower outside the town was not as good-looking as her.However, it makes people feel scared.

Before Xu Xiu'er could think of anything to describe, Wanwan suddenly stopped smiling, something strange seemed to flash in her pretty eyes, and then she just walked through the closed door like this.

this!What's this? !Xu Xiu'er was so shocked that her whole body became stiff, and she couldn't stop her chills.

Grandpa, who exactly did you find?

Actually, actually want them to die instead? !

At this moment, the sky outside is completely dark.

There is only a thin halo in the sky, indicating the position of the obscured sun.

It's a pity that the sun can't do anything now.

The streets of Zailai Town are crowded with all kinds of ghosts.

Their expressions are either numb or ferocious, and their eyes are equally bloodthirsty.

They are looking for flesh and blood. This is the exchange made by the humans living in this land with them. They exchange enough flesh and blood and the essence and blood of living people every year.

However, there was no sun in the sky, and they came to the town, but they didn't find what they should have.

If not, find it yourself.

With such a rare vision, the world is more cloudy than before, how can they not have a good carnival.

In this town, there are obviously so many lively people.

Yes, right behind that door.

For a while, the entire Zailai Town was like falling into hell.

From time to time there were screams, the cries of children, and the cries of pain from adults.

When they found that the house could no longer protect them, they began to flee in panic.

However, no matter where you run, inside or outside this house, you can't see a way out.

Taking advantage of the one-eyed ghost chasing one person away, old man Xu escaped from the chicken coop, and ran towards home in a hurry, regardless of the chicken feathers and shit all over his head.

Suddenly there was a sharp whistling sound behind him, and old man Xu didn't dare to look back, he could fully imagine that there was an unknown ghost chasing him at this moment.

He can only run.

Why is this happening?He had obviously prepared a way out for Xiu'er, but how could this happen? !

While distracted, Old Man Xu bumped into a child.

The child fell to the ground, crying.

The howling from behind was approaching.

Uncle Xu passed the child and continued to run forward. It didn't take long for the child's crying to stop abruptly, and even the whistling sound went away, but the sound of gnawing flesh and blood seemed to be heard in his ears.

There is a fork in the road ahead, turn in, and the ghost should not be able to see himself.Old man Xu gasped for breath and ran hard.

He finally rushed across the fork in the road and turned in.

But he found that in front of him was a ghost covered in water.

It laughed, and its sharp nails pierced his body, pulling away to the sides.

He looked desperately at the distance, his own home.His Xiu'er, Xiu'er...

At this moment, a scorching flame flashed across his home.

The two ghosts screamed pitifully, and gradually turned to ashes in the flames.

Xiang Huang stood in the middle of the room, holding onto the Taoist talisman with one hand, and concentrating his energy in the other.

The door in front of her was broken, just like that.

The ghosts and ghosts that were catching humans all sensed the aura coming from here, it was strong and delicious.

They let go of the prey in their hands, threw away the severed limbs, and followed the aura to surround them.

Xiang Huang looked dignified.

She knew that she was already surrounded by dozens of ghosts, and not far away, more ghosts surrounded her.

This is not a scenario she can solve, she...has absolutely no chance of surviving.

Beads of sweat dripped from the corner of her forehead, and she quickly arranged the Dao Talisman separately, only hoping to delay more time.

Drag to - sun recovery.

Procrastinate until—Wanwan can survive.

Hundred ghosts are approaching.
