Chapter 42: Guard
The next day, an uninvited guest was ushered in in my yard. Black dress, green gauze mask, black hair, casually tied with a hairband behind him, eyebrows and eyes crooked, smiling, holding the fragrant tea I brewed with his own hands, staring at me with a smile.
I hugged Xiao Hei, who had just jumped from her shoulder into her arms, the corners of my mouth twitched, and I said to the girl opposite: "So you sue me, after the death of the previous shrine maiden, you have succeeded to the position of the shrine maid?" ”
"Yes, Sister Hua." The girl lifted the corner of the green veil, took a sip of tea, and continued to stare at me with those big smart eyes.
"Why didn't I see you sad at all?"
If I hadn't seen her cry for her former shrine maiden, I would have wondered if she had been looking forward to the death of her former shrine maiden for a long time, so that she could succeed to the throne.
"Hee-hee, this starts with my succession last night!" Luo Qiaoyu took another sip of tea slowly, and then said: "After I took over, I knew that I could rule all the yin ghosts in this mountain and forest, and my mother-in-law did not leave, but stayed in the forest and continued to guard Luojia Village with me!" ”
"Didn't leave?" When I heard this, I stood up,
"yes, so of course I don't have to be sad!" She winked playfully and finally happily announced.
"So with the protection of the former shrine maiden, you can leave the forest at will, and you still have to live in my house?"
My left eyelid jumped, and I could see that if the current shrine maiden lived in my house, it would be fine.
"Yes! I was invited by the village elder to catch ghosts for the four Luo families. As she spoke, her smart eyes glanced under the old locust tree, and then continued: "I don't want to live in the village chief's house, I know you best in this village, of course I want to live in your house!" ”
When she looked at the old locust tree, I was shocked, this new witch should not be able to see the second girl under the old locust tree, right? No wonder since she came in, Erya has stood timidly, not daring to leave or move.
"You ......", I hesitated, "Sister Xiaoyu, don't you really want to accept Erya?" ”
"Hehe," Luo Qiaoyu grinned, "she made a bit of a fuss, and the village chief begged us." ”
"Can you not accept it?" I want to ask Luo Qiaoyu for a favor.
"Hehe, Sister Hua promised me to stay for a while, okay?" Luo Qiaoyu did not answer positively, but changed the topic slyly.
"Uh, well, you can live if you want!"
I compromised, for the sake of poor little Erya! It's just that I think she is not only familiar with me, but also with Luo Hongyan and Luo Wantian!
But forget it, it looks like they're male. Well, I can only reluctantly accept her reason, and I can't drive this shrine maiden away.
"yes, I know that Sister Hua is the best!" Luo Qiaoyu stood up excitedly, completely lacking the majesty of the first witch.
"I'm going to open the altar tonight, Sister Hua has to tell that little sister, don't go out and walk around at will, stay where she should be!"
My eyes lit up, "You mean ......"
"Shh Luo Qiaoyu raised her index finger and winked at her, "Don't sue the village chief!" ”
The corners of my mouth twitched, was she planning to hide it? But as long as she is willing to let Erya go, I am happy to cooperate.
Luo Qiaoyu suddenly stretched out her hand towards me, her palm spread, and an inky black box appeared in her palm.
It's the Purple Jade Box!
I was shocked!
I subconsciously wanted to reach out and take it back, but was stopped by Luo Qiaoyu's look.
"I didn't expect the dark spots to be covered so soon," Luo Qiaoyu put away her smile and looked at me sternly, "It seems that Sister Hua has been feeding me carefully!" ”
Seeing this, I had to nod my head and say yes, I have been carefully feeding with my own essence and blood these days. I only hoped to see Luo Hongxuan again, but he didn't appear again since I saw it that day. Maybe his ghost power hasn't been able to keep him in shape.
However, I could feel his aura, and as long as I had the purple jade box by my side, his aura could linger around me. That's enough, I don't have much craving, and I'm already satisfied with his company.
I unconsciously lost my mind again until Luo Qiaoyu's voice caught my attention.
"Sister Hua, you have to think clearly, when this box turns completely black, it means that his soul has been successfully shaped, and then your essence blood will not be able to meet his needs."
"That'...... He's not going to hurt anyone! ”
I was a little worried that if I had harmed the people of the village for my own selfishness, then I would have been guilty of a great sin.
"It's up to you, he and Sister Hua will have a life and death contract, and he will recognize you as the master, listen to your orders, and when Sister Hua holds the principle, don't hurt anyone, otherwise Xiaoyu will be difficult to do!"
I nodded hurriedly.
Luo Qiaoyu gave me a helpless look, and then said, "At that time, my sister needs to be fed with live chickens and fragrant incense every day, and when he grows stronger and can forage independently, he can slowly break off." ”
"I don't need him to confess the Lord, he is my husband, I just need to be with him." I said eagerly.
Luo Qiaoyu just looked at me and smiled, but didn't answer. She moved the jade box in front of me, and my eyes looked at the jade box.
Perhaps it is more appropriate to call it the ink jade box now, but I saw that the jade box, which was originally glowing with purple luster all over, has now become as black as ink, shiny, shiny and flowing.
Is what Luo Qiaoyu said coming true soon, I'm looking forward to it!
"Is my sister-in-law at home?" A loud male voice rang out.
Luo Qiaoyu and I both turned our eyes to the outside of the courtyard, only to see Luo Wantian and Luo Hongyan pushing the door in one after another.
I hurriedly got up to greet him, "It turns out that the two brothers are here, is there something wrong?" ”
"Hmph, what can they do!" Luo Qiaoyu picked up the tea and drank it slowly.
"Sister-in-law, let's come to her!" Luo Wantian said and pointed at Luo Qiaoyu.
Luo Hongyan still didn't open his mouth, and smiled at me honestly.
"What are you looking for me to do?" Luo Qiaoyu didn't even raise her head.
"I heard that you've succeeded you as a shrine maiden?"
Luo Wantian pulled Luo Hongyan to sit down in front of Luo Qiaoyu, and I hurriedly went into the house to prepare tea.
"Sister-in-law, don't be busy, we'll sit for a while and leave!" Luo Wantian shouted behind me.
But where could I snub the guest, and before he could speak, he had already gone into the house. There was the sound of Luo Qiaoyu and Luo Wantian arguing behind him, it seems that the two of them will quarrel as long as they meet!
When I came out, they had already stopped, and I looked at the three of them with different expressions and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong, what's wrong?" ”
"Let's talk about this after tonight!" Luo Qiaoyu obviously didn't want me to know, and said it decisively.
