"My husband left me, my company fired me, and my child just won't listen no matter how I discipline him. What should I do..."

Under the candlelight, Wu Xiaoguang's mother was wearing a black robe, kneeling in front of a statue of the goddess, talking sadly.

This is the study room of the villa, and the statue is just a plaster decoration and will not respond.

However, Wu Xiaoguang's mother didn't seem to ask for anything. After talking for a while, her excited mood gradually calmed down.

She knelt down three times devoutly, then stood up and left.

"What is mom doing..."

After she left, Wu Xiaoguang appeared from behind the bookshelf.

He walked tremblingly to the place where his mother had been kneeling, and looked guiltily in the direction his mother had left, with a somewhat frightened expression.

There was a circle of candles on the ground here, and in the middle was a stone table altar with thorn runes painted on it. There were a few fruits and a book with a black cover on it.

Wu Xiaoguang hesitated for a while and picked up the book...

click!

The crisp sound disrupted my thoughts and made the hazy picture fade quickly.

"what!!!"

The tailless cat screamed in pain.

At this time, her body had almost been twisted into a ball, and her leg bones finally couldn't support it and one of them broke.

"Useless things!"

Just like what was seen in a fantasy, the mother looked at the tailless cat angrily and finally stopped the punishment.

"Huh...huchi..."

The tailless cat turned over with difficulty, all the strength in his body having been drained.

Mom stared at her for two seconds, then turned and left without saying a word.

"have they gone?"

Sensing her mother's departure, Li Tianxiu also opened her eyes.

The scene just now revealed part of the world view.

Perhaps Wu Xiaoguang's ghost is not caused by resentment as commonly believed, but is related to the book.

Wu Xiaoguang's mother may have believed in some kind of cult.

Thinking of this, Li Tianxiu took out a pen and paper from his space belt and drew the rune on the cover of the black book according to his memory, a hexagram pattern surrounded by thorns.

"You were awake the whole time?"

Seeing Li Tianxiu stand up, the tailless cat was startled.

"Ah."

Li Tianxiu picked up the painting, looked at it, and put it into the space.

"But why are you just watching?" The tailless cat felt aggrieved.

"Nothing happened if you didn't say anything, so don't blame me."

Li Tianxiu turned around and shrugged, "And you're not dead, are you?"

"But...if someone else had been tortured like this, they would have died long ago, right? Those notes are all misleading, they are killing me!" The tailless cat was devastated.

The cabinet was said to be safe, but it turns out there is a ghost hiding in it!

Then mom will open the cabinet door!

If her bones weren't so soft and her lumbar vertebrae were not broken, she would not have survived.

"Normal human bones wouldn't last that long before breaking."

Li Tianxiu glanced at her, stood up and asked, "Do you want me to help you check your wound?"

Although the tailless cat's performance was not very active, it helped him trigger an information point after all, and he was not stingy with such a small favor.

"Come quickly!"

The tailless cat had no strength left at this time, and subconsciously sought help, but when he looked at his injured area, his face suddenly turned red, and he shook his head repeatedly, saying, "Wait, let's not do it for now."

Wounds in that place are not nice to look at.

"Then take some medicine yourself."

After saying that, Li Tianxiu walked to the window and pulled up a corner of the curtain.

This direction is on the side of the villa, and it is not easy to observe the situation in the courtyard.

However, judging from the dazzling red light emanating from below, Bluebird and Admiral Wushuang should have successfully escaped and set a fire in the courtyard.

"Did you succeed?"

Li Tianxiu sighed lightly, then turned to look at the tailless cat who was drinking the healing potion, and said, "It seems that I have to sleep here tonight."

"what?"

The tailless cat shuddered all over, looked at Li Tianxiu in disbelief, and said: "Hiccup~~~~~~~~~~"

Chapter 84: Courage

"Out!"

While the tailless cat was experiencing his punishment time, Admiral Wushuang had already returned to the main entrance of the villa under the cover of the blue bird.

"Are things arranged?" asked Bluebird.

"Of course, I've wanted to kill these little beasts for a long time."

Admiral Wushuang showed a vengeful grin on his face, but he quickly restrained it and asked, "Where is Mom?"

"He should be on the second floor, being held back by Fran. Let's ignite the fire." Bluebird replied.

"I'm just waiting for your words!"

Admiral Wushuang turned around and pressed a detonator.

There was a muffled "puff" sound, and a ball of sparks burst out in the courtyard, quickly spreading in all directions.

That was the compressed fuel that Admiral Wushuang had scattered along the way. It was flammable, easy to spread, and had a long effective time. It was much more useful than any sword technique to deal with these monsters that were susceptible to fire damage.

The reason why it didn't work before was mainly because of the monster called "Mom", which made them afraid to let go.

Now, it's time to settle the accounts!

"Ahhh!!"

A shrill scream was heard from the lush courtyard. The green-skinned little tree spirit jumped up and down in the flames like a monkey, and finally broke the vines behind it, turning into pieces of dead wood and becoming new fuel.

"It's time to go before that thing finds us."

Bluebird opened the rear window and motioned for Admiral Wushuang to climb in.

That thing was naturally referring to my mother. With such a big commotion, she would definitely try her best to find the culprit who set the fire tonight.

"Let's turn off the surveillance. I'm afraid that guy will be able to sense our surveillance."

Admiral Wushuang swiftly climbed over the wall and the two of them ran towards the utility room on the first floor.

They had already scouted the villa during the day, where there were two large boxes that could accommodate human bodies. They planned to spend their last night there.

……

"The incident [Noisy Dryad] has been resolved."

"The achievement [Greening Enemy] has been completed, and 200 reincarnation points have been obtained."

"You get a [Chapter of Courage]."

"Ok?"

The sudden reminder made Li Tianxiu lower his head, and there was a medal with cartoon graffiti in his hand.

"Item Name: Chapter of Courage"

"Features: Not tradable."

"Explanation: You have proven your courage and earned a medal."

“Tip: Collect all three medals to unlock special effects and corresponding achievements.”

"I see."

Li Tianxiu raised the corner of his mouth.

Because he participated in the command, planning and pulling of monsters, he naturally had a share of the credit for burning down the courtyard.

They searched many places during the day but couldn't find any trace of Tang Tian, ​​which means that he was very likely trapped in another space like the Hidden Killer.

The way to enter is either to be actively pulled in by some monsters; or to defeat the ghost stories and collect medals to enter in a more active way.

"You...what do you want to..."

Looking at the mysterious smile on Li Tianxiu's face, the tailless cat felt a little panicked.

Although Li Tianxiu is good-looking and his reasons for not taking action are understandable, some awkwardness cannot be let go just like that.

The more important question is...

She hurts.

"Ah, don't worry, I'm not interested in you."

Li Tianxiu then realized that there was another person here and explained, "We solved a strange story, and it caused quite a stir.

Mom must be furious right now, and she might even come back to investigate the real culprit. If she finds out I'm not here, I'll definitely be dead."

"Will you come back?"

The tailless cat stood up in fear, then immediately pulled his hips and squatted down in pain.

Seeing that she didn't seem willing to help, Li Tianxiu returned to his seat and took out the collection of stories from the day.

"Ahh..."

The tailless cat climbed onto the bed with difficulty and slept on the other side.

Although there was only one quilt, the bed in the guest room was very large, so if we didn't move around, we wouldn't bump into each other.

But after getting into the quilt, looking at Li Tianxiu, who was less than 40 centimeters away from her, she couldn't help but start to have wild thoughts.

What if he really pounces on me?

Can I refuse him?

or……

Take the initiative and help him solve the problem fundamentally?

"You'd better fall asleep. The mother ghost will observe your condition closely. It will be difficult to deceive her with your psychological condition." Li Tianxiu said without turning his head.

"what?!"

The tailless cat shuddered all over, and his legs suddenly began to hurt again.

Being observed closely by my mother...

The scene is terrifying just thinking about it.

For a moment, she abandoned all distracting thoughts, lay down with her back to Li Tianxiu, and closed her eyes tightly.

However, those who have suffered internal injuries know that when the pain accumulates, you have no control over whether you can sleep or not, not to mention that you have just experienced such a horrible stimulation.

She tossed and turned for a long time, and became more and more energetic. Her mind was full of the scene of the joint attack by her mother and Li Tianxiu.

She was terribly frightened.

"Let me help you."

Seeing her in so much pain, Li Tianxiu turned his head away.

"You help..."

The tailless cat looked at him in confusion, and then was cut on the artery in its neck by a knife, and fell into a peaceful sleep like a baby.
