C17 Third Eye

The leopard was stunned for a moment. Without saying a word, it entered the house and closed the door.

It was obvious that the leopard knew her name, because his first reaction was to ask, "Why are you asking this?" not to say, "I don't know." But why wouldn't he? The first time I came, he was able to explain so much about Mrs. Zhao, including her family. How the hell did he know? At the beginning, I thought that the flower leopard cat would be able to calculate, but he calculated all of these. This is because the flower leopard cat's abilities have long been deified by humans, so it's natural for me to think this way. But last time, the leopard cat's words revealed her pity for Old Madame Zhao. How could she explain this?

Now that my mind was in a dead end, a single word from the leopard blocked my path. There was nothing I could do now, but the glass was still tangled.

No, I still have one way out, and that is to remove the Soul-Nailing Spike, but this path is a bit risky. And the question I've been worrying about, what kind of credibility did that dream have? Could they really bring him down? From the looks of the current situation, he could only fight with his back against the wall.

I called Uncle Fu and met him again on the way. He was always jumping up and down behind me. No matter how I chased him away, he refused to leave. He followed me all the way to Uncle Fu's yard.

It was almost noon, and the sun was very hot outside. However, because Uncle Fu's yard was covered by the poplar trees, it was not that hot as the entire courtyard was immersed in darkness. I told Uncle Fu about the situation. In the beginning, he didn't want me to remove the Soul Nail because he was afraid that they wouldn't be able to clean it up after they came out.

I helped him analyze his interests in the long run, then bragged to him about the power of the town gossip on the door before he agreed to what I was doing.

Because I didn't know what the consequences of this decision would be, I didn't dare let them stay in the yard. Laifu and Laifu were both hiding behind the main house door to prevent anything from happening to me. Although Tap was also hiding behind the door, he would look into the yard from time to time. When I looked at the time, it was already noon.

It's time for our appointment.

I walked slowly to the poplar tree and found three Soul-Nailing Nails. I didn't know which one to pull out first. Starting from the nail in the southeast direction, because that angle is closest to the town's gossip. Even if something were to happen, that town gossip might be able to block it.

The southeast direction should be the place where the gossip flows, which is the wind.

I used the shovel I had prepared to remove the dirt from around the nails, because the glass had only been two inches high when I first buried the nails, and it had been hammered into the hard soil, so it was impossible to pull it out by hand.

The soil was quickly removed and a large section of the Soul-Nail was revealed. It seemed that he could pull it out with his bare hands. I turned my head to look at Uncle Fu and the others. They were also staring at me, as if they were worried about me.

I raised my head to look at the poplar tree. The poplar tree was exceptionally calm without a trace of wind. The dense foliage blocked all of the sunlight. I wiped my hands on my pants because my palms were sweaty, maybe because of the weather, but mostly because of the tension.

I leaned over and swallowed, trying to calm myself. With both hands tightly holding the wooden wedge, he exerted all his strength and pulled out the wooden wedge with a sudden force from his waist.

I pulled out the Soul-Nailing Nail. After pulling it out, I quickly took two steps back to the front of the door. I intentionally retreated to the front of the town gossip, hoping to get the protection of it, but nothing happened next. Uncle Lai Li stuck his head out and asked, "How was it?"

I said it was all right.

Just when I said that I was fine, my forehead suddenly started to itch. I hurriedly used my hands to scratch it, but I didn't understand or feel itchy at all. I really wanted to slash my forehead in hatred.

"Something's going to happen, hide —" Before I could even utter the word "good", two loud "bang" sounds could be heard, as if thunder had exploded on the ground, causing my ears to buzz. Following these two loud sounds, I could faintly hear a burst of laughter. It was the kind of laughter that comes from the whispers. I don't know if it was due to the ringing in my ears. I looked at the poplars and saw a cloud of dust rising from beneath them. It was misty and there were two holes in the ground, southwest of the tree and north of it, where the other two nails were. From the looks of it, the fifth brother and the little boy had been hiding inside for too long. After one Soul Nail came out, the remaining two did not seem to be in formation, which was why they rushed out.

I was very nervous at first, but I didn't expect such a big commotion to occur, which immediately confused my mind and left me at a loss.

At this moment, two whirlwinds suddenly appeared in the middle of the courtyard. The two whirlwinds turned towards the same direction, both of them rotating counterclockwise. In other words, they turned left. The whirlwind spun around in the yard and slowly rose upwards, stirring up the branches of the poplar. Judging from the current situation, it was only a matter of time before the branches were cut off.

In the past, he had heard from the old man that the whirlwind was formed by Yin people, which meant that ghosts appeared. The left side became the male, while the right side became the female. According to the legend, when Liu Mu was on patrol in Shandong Province, he was found guilty of the murder of his husband by a whirlwind obstructing his carriage. Today, there were two left turns. Could it be the fifth brother and the little boy?

The two gales grew stronger and stronger, sucking in all the dust on the ground and mixing it with the leaves on the poplar. That was nothing. The two tornadoes were nearing me slowly. That's not right, I thought to myself, once Cao Lao Wu leaves the Soul-Nailing Spike he will enter the Yin and Yang category. If that's the case, he should have been captured by that man in black, how can he still act so arrogantly here? Could it be that the dream was simply a dream? Everything in the dream was fake, then why did I have to voluntarily wade through this muddy water?

However, since the situation has become like this, even if I wanted to retreat, I probably wouldn't be able to do so. As the whirlwind got closer, dust began to cover my face, choking me, and I took two more steps back, covering my nose with my clothes.

"Come in, let me close the door." Laifu called to me.

I think I can only do this because the entire yard is covered in dust and I can't even see the gate clearly anymore. If I were to rush out at this moment, I definitely wouldn't be able to get out.

As soon as I turned around, something fell from above and hit me in the head. The blow actually felt a lot better, because my forehead wasn't as itchy as it had been at least.

What fell? I looked down and thought, "Not good, because the thing that fell down was none other than the flower leopard cat's house gossip." This was because the glass that was previously hung up was definitely not very strong. However, after being blown by the wind, it actually fell off.

With the disappearance of the gossip, the wind behind him seemed to have become stronger. I wanted to go into the room, but I couldn't lift my legs up. They were like lead, I couldn't muster any strength, I felt dizzy, and my vision began to blur. However, his back felt the gale's power gradually growing stronger. It was like a knife had been slashed across his back, and it was extremely painful. I tried to escape, but I couldn't.

Laifu suddenly took two steps out of the room, grabbed me, and pulled me inside. Logically speaking, Uncle Laifu should be quite strong, but he didn't pull me. It was fine that he didn't pull me, but from the looks of it, he seemed to be unable to move either. His face gradually revealed an anxious expression. He tried several times to struggle free from me, but to no avail.

What should I do, I thought anxiously. My back hurt more and more, and I felt as if my flesh were being torn apart bit by bit. It was like being whipped by a cane. F * ck you, Cao Lao Wu, I cursed in my heart. You want to put me to death, don't you know that I'm a judge? If you fall into my hands one day, I'll chop you into pieces!

At this moment, the plug suddenly jumped out and shouted at me, "Eye, red eye, third eye!"

I was shocked. There were two reasons for this shock. Initially, I was worried that the embolus would be injured if I jumped out now, so I was terrified. But after listening to the plug, I went from worry to fear, because he kept saying "red eye" and "third eye" and didn't know what exactly he meant. My first thought was that there was a third eye in the whirlwind behind me, and it was red. Who are the other two?

At this moment, Laifu seemed to have heard the sound of a bolt as well. He stared at me in panic, his eyes filled with fear. When I saw his expression, I was even more frightened, because there was something wrong with his mind and he might be talking nonsense, but there was nothing wrong with Uncle Fu's brain and he must have seen something terrifying.

At this point, I was even more anxious to get out of this place. At the same time, I tried to turn my head to see what was behind me.

The wind was so strong that I wanted to turn my head, but there was a great deal of resistance, as if someone were holding my head and not letting me look back. But the more it was like this, the more I wanted to see what was going on behind the scenes.

As I slowly turned my head, the force of the wind became stronger and stronger in my eyes. A lot of dust began to seep into my eyes, until it was almost impossible for my eyes to open. I pushed against the pressure and tried to turn my head, but my eyes were unable to bear the pressure and I closed them reflexively.

Just as I turned my head completely, I heard a long whooshing sound, and suddenly there was silence. The sound of the wind was gone, the sound of the branches swaying was gone, and the feeling of the vines whipping behind him was also gone. It was as if the entire world had disappeared all of a sudden. I rubbed my eyes with my hands, trying to open them as quickly as possible to see what was going on. I hadn't even opened my eyes when I heard a "plop!" sound behind me. Then, I heard Uncle Fu call out, "Big Brother! Big Brother! What's wrong?

Did something happen to Uncle Fu? I was anxious and forced my eyes open. My eyes continuously blinked as if I had a conditioned reflex. Tears flowed out from my head in one go. Due to the washing effect of the tears, his vision also gradually became clearer. I was stunned to see the scene in front of me

The yard was a mess, the floor covered with leaves, the broomsticks and hoes leaning against the side wall of the house were all lying on the ground in a mess. Several tiles had fallen from the eaves of the side house and shattered into pieces. It was as if the entire yard had experienced a mini typhoon.

I suddenly thought of Laifu behind me. I turned around and saw him lying on the threshold of the main house, his left hand wrapped around his right arm, trembling. He looked miserable. His face was covered in sweat, and he had changed his shape, but he gritted his teeth without making a sound.

"Come, Uncle Fu, what happened to you?"

"Big brother's arm seems to be broken." "We need to hurry to the hospital!"

However, Uncle Laifu shook his head, meaning that he didn't want to go. His eyes glanced around the room from time to time. I immediately understood that he was afraid that if he left, there would be no one left to take care of Auntie Gui Hua. However, after experiencing this strange event, if everyone left, Auntie Gui Hua definitely wouldn't be able to cure Ol 'Five by herself.

I pushed Laifu's hand away and looked at it. I was startled because Laifu's arm had twisted 180 degrees from the elbow down, the forearm, which meant that his palm was now facing outwards. This was the complete opposite of what a normal person would do. I tried to pull it off, but I couldn't. With just a bit of force, Laifu's uncle was in so much pain that he grimaced. Strangely, with such a severe sprained wound, his arm should be completely disabled. However, his arm could still move and he could still control it. From the outside, there didn't seem to be any injury. It was as if this forearm was born to be deformed.
