C13 The Divination of the Ghost in the Rain of the Night

Just as they were at the foot of the mountain, they heard a burst of anxious shouts from behind. He Ziyuan stumbled and chased after them.

She walked up to me and panted heavily. Tears flowed from her eyes as she anxiously said, "Not good, my father has found out."

I was stunned for a moment, thinking that the magic charm I just let out hadn't been exposed, how could I have discovered it?

"How could this be …" I murmured.

"As soon as he entered the room, he rushed straight into the room, picked up that thing, and tore the talisman into small pieces." She paused, and the tears in her eyes became even more intense. She choked and said, "If I hadn't run so fast, he would have killed me with a knife."

I opened my mouth wide and was so surprised that I couldn't say anything. I could only stare blankly at her face that was filled with tears.

He Ziyuan held onto my hand, and begged: "I beg you, please save my family, please save my family."

With a cold expression, I said loudly, "Let's go and catch a ghost!" After saying that, he pulled her back.

At this moment, the sky was filled with muffled thunder and lightning. A mountain breeze blew, causing the trees on the mountain to sway violently. A loud rustling sound could be heard. As I walked, I looked up at the sky, which had once been dark and gray.

Seeing that the rain was about to fall, he quickened his steps. Just as the rain was about to hit the ground, he had already arrived at the entrance of their house.

At this moment, her house was brightly lit. Almost all the rooms had their lights on, illuminating the outside as well.

However, he heard loud noises coming from inside the house, and the sound of things falling could be heard incessantly.

Unconsciously, I reached behind my back and was stunned. When I realized that I wasn't carrying a sword, I remembered that I hadn't returned to the monastery since I came to the library.

I took out a handful of glutinous rice from my backpack and held it in my hand, and followed He Ziyuan through the door. At this time, it was raining heavily, so we hastily ran towards the door.

He Ziyuan lightly twisted the handle of the door, opening up a crack, a clear smashing sound came from inside. I stood outside the door, and looked through the crack, but didn't see anyone.

I opened the door and walked in. He Ziyuan stood behind me and shivered.

There was the sound of someone coming down the stairs. I focused my attention on the staircase and the middle-aged man who was carrying a kitchen knife rushed down.

Under the light of the lamp, I could clearly see his face. A pair of deep-set eye sockets were surrounded by a thick black color, although it was a square face, it didn't contain a trace of light, it was a little grey. The hair that was originally combed back was now a head full of hair, and his eyes were filled with evil as he glared at me.

He picked up the kitchen knife and said in a weird tone, "It's you …" Give My Home Treasure... Did Bei place a curse on him?! "

I was shaken by the aura to the point that I became a little timid. I nodded and whispered, "It's, it's me."

He grinds his teeth as he stares at me, his face twitching slightly. At this moment, another person walked down the stairs behind him. It was a woman. Her hair was also disheveled and her face was gloomy. She was holding a doll with a face covered in blood.

As she walked, she muttered something to herself. From time to time, she would let out a creepy chuckle.

A layer of white perspiration appeared on my back as I thought to myself: How did this He Ziyuan manage to spend every day living in such a weird atmosphere?

The man turned around and looked at the woman who had just walked down. He pointed the kitchen knife at me and fiercely said, "It was this little bastard who laid the curse on my family's precious item!"

The woman raised her face and looked at me. She stopped on the stairs and glared at me with her grayish eyes, as if she wanted to tear out my heart.

I couldn't help but shiver. My eyes never left the two of them and the glutinous rice in my hand had almost turned into powder.

He Ziyuan walked forward and softly called out for her parents, then stood by my side and praised me on my arms. I felt that even though the one in front of me was her biological parents, they were still trembling slightly and their hands were drenched in sweat.

Her father shouted and looked at me with his knife. His body was bloated, but he moved so fast that before I could react, he was right in front of me.

I pulled He Ziyuan and dodged to the side to avoid the slash, but leaned on the door and retreated without any way out.

Just as he was about to cut again, I raised my right hand, and a handful of glutinous rice smashed onto his face. He blocked with his hand, and let out a muffled grunt, in the midst of it, I pushed He Ziyuan to the side of a wall.

The man straightened up and spat out a few grains of glutinous rice. With another roar, he raised his knife and chopped forward. I dodged the knife and arrived at his side. I sent a kick towards his chest. With a thump, the man fell to the ground. The kitchen knife also flew to the side.

I took out a few magic charm s from my backpack, bit my finger and drew a few lines on them using blood. Just as I was about to activate the runes, a shocking and terrifying scene appeared in front of me.

The child in the woman's hand actually rose into the air and flew to my front with a strange chuckle.

The doll's face was covered in blood, and its clothes were filthy to the point where their original color was almost indistinguishable. Its blue eyes kept blinking as it looked at me.

I raised the sigil and started the incantation. Suddenly, I threw the magic charm towards the figurine, causing the sigil to turn into a fireball and smash onto the figurine's body.

The doll fell onto the ground, emitting a pungent smell of burning plastic. Accompanied by a wuwu sound, it turned into a ball of charred coal.

I patted my hands, feeling that the matter had been resolved. Just as I was about to go and support He Ziyuan who was hiding in the corner, I suddenly felt that my body was extremely heavy, as though someone had tied me up.

Looks like being naive means me. I thought everything would be fine after burning that doll, but I didn't know that it was just a small puppet.

I stood there, unable to move, and could only look around. The man got up from the ground, clutching his chest and stooping over to pick up the kitchen knife.

He straightened up, grinned, let out a babyish laugh, and brought the knife down on my head where it stood still.

I gritted my teeth and my heart stopped for a second. I closed my eyes and didn't dare to look again.

With a dang sound, the man screamed and fell to the ground, his blade also flying out.

I opened my eyes and saw a white mass blocking my view. I saw that the thing was slowly moving forward. I then realized that it was a big white snake. It had transformed into the human form of a snake and was rushing towards the man.

At this moment, my body was still tightly bound by something, making me unable to move an inch.

The white snake lifted its tail without looking back. The tip of its tail brushed past my body, causing a strong gust of wind to slide down and crash into the ground.

In that instant, my body returned to normal. Just as I was about to rush forward with the runes, I heard the white snake shout: "Li Yu, bring that girl to the door."

I just stood there, not knowing what to do. The white snake tilted its head, stared at me, and yelled, "Get out!"

He Ziyuan's eyes were filled with fear. Looking at the white snake, it was obvious that she could not believe what was happening in front of him.

I followed her instructions and walked to her side. I helped her up from the corner of the wall and supported her as she staggered towards the entrance. I turned my head to look at the white snake and said, "You must be careful." After which, he walked out.

Just as I stepped out of the doorstep, I heard the door close tightly with a "bang". I hugged the shivering He Ziyuan and said softly, "It's fine, it's fine.

She looked at me with a pair of terrified eyes and squeezed out a few words with a trembling voice, "... My parents... "It won't …" As he spoke, he began to cry.

I held onto her hair and firmly said, "It's fine. They will be fine."
