Chapter 20: The Medium

"Brother Xuan, you see that you use your soul power indiscriminately, and it is difficult to even form."

The little girl complained cautiously, but it was clear that she was very concerned about her brother Xuan, and her voice fell, and then the frost on the path receded, and the fog gradually dissipated, revealing a relatively flat path.

And the black fog in front of me slowly dissipated, Luo Hongxuan, he left!

The little paper figure sat down on my shoulder again, and the blue flames began to gather again. After what happened, I was even more determined to go in.

Luo Hongxuan didn't let me in, there must be something he didn't let me know, and the more this happened, the more it aroused my curiosity. I raised my feet and continued to walk inside, and there were more and more fires around me, illuminating the entire mountain forest.

After walking for another half an hour, I finally saw a clearing in the depths of the dense forest, surrounded by a fence to form a circle, and a small bamboo building in the middle appeared abruptly in the dense forest.

I stood outside the fence and looked inside, thinking that this was where the owner of the little paper figure was.

At this moment, a door in the small bamboo building creaked open, and a little girl of eleven or twelve years old walked out.

I saw the little girl, dressed in black cloth and with black hair, only loosely tied behind her, covered with green veil, revealing a pair of bright and bright eyes.

She soon came to the small gate of the fence, smiled at me, and said, "Sister Hua, you are here, come in, my mother-in-law has been waiting for you for a long time!" ”

This voice was the little girl who stopped Luo Hongxuan in the woods, and I asked, "Are you?" ”

"I'm Luo Qiaoyu!"

She stretched out a small white hand, and when she saw the little paper figure fall into her hand, it reverted to the appearance of an ordinary piece of paper, and she turned sideways and invited me in.

Seeing this, I saluted her and bowed in.

The little girl took me up to the small bamboo building, only to see that there were three rooms in a row on the second floor of the small bamboo building, she took me to the middle room, knocked on the bamboo door gently, and said, "Mother-in-law, she is here." ”

"Let her in."

An old, hoarse voice came from inside the room.

The little girl pushed open the bamboo door, turned around and made a gesture of invitation to me.

I looked down at myself, and I was a wolf all the way. The clothes on his body were already a little wet, and his feet were sticky with some mud, and his face was suddenly very embarrassed.

Seeing this, the little girl chuckled lightly: "Sister Hua, it's okay, let's go in first!" Then he whispered in my ear, "Speak respectfully, and don't make your mother-in-law angry." ”

I nodded my head in gratitude and walked in very respectfully.

In the room, the green veil moves with the wind, and a dim oil lamp on a low table reflects a dim light, making the whole space appear even darker.

Behind the low table, a rickety figure loomed, showing a mysterious appearance.

I looked up slightly, and when I looked, I saw an old woman sitting there, the figure wrapped in black, the clothes were loose and seemed to hang on the body, and her head was covered with a black veil, and the black veil was very long, covering her whole body in the black veil.

The old and wrinkled face was like the bark of an old tree, layered on top of each other, and looked a little eerie under the dim oil lamp.

Rao was prepared for a long time, but I was also frightened and took a step back. But I quickly withdrew my gaze, for fear of showing a little disrespect.

I hurriedly bowed and said respectfully: "The little girl Hua Banlei has seen her mother-in-law!" I wonder why my mother-in-law brought me here? ”

"Well, get up, no need to be polite!"

She didn't answer my questions first, but told me to get up. The hoarse voice carried a hint of kindness, which made me feel more cordial, and I also retracted the fear I had just had.

At this moment, a familiar cat meow sounded, and a black figure jumped onto the desk, walked a few steps, and lay down meekly in front of the figure.

It's my little black, I looked at its lazy body, and couldn't help but be surprised, how could little black be here?

A thin hand like a withered branch stretched out and gently touched the little black cat, looking extremely affectionate.

"You take good care of this little black cat!"

"Uh, mother-in-law, the little girl doesn't know that Xiao Hei is yours?" I asked, genuinely apprehensive.

The little black cat is in my house for three years, has been my good companion, when it appeared in my yard I thought it was an ownerless little wild cat, so carefully raised it.

Although, it often disappears for a while, but it always returns. I'm used to it being so elusive, and it's a little strange to me that the little black cat has always been like this, and has never grown up since it appeared three years ago, but I definitely didn't expect it to be this pet.

"You call her Blackie? It's kind of like that. ”

The old woman looked at Hei who was squinting comfortably under her hands, and Hei whimpered comfortably, raised her head and winked at me.

Uh, is this my little black, how does it make me feel like a little boy.

I stood a little nervous, a little worried that she would be angry, and that this seemingly powerful person, I had taken her pet, and would offend people.

"Don't panic, child, the old body is the witch mother-in-law of Luojia Village, and she is also a medium, specializing in communicating yin and yang. You call me mother-in-law as the juniors. Since this little guy likes you, you can take it with you. ”

I was overjoyed to hear this, the little black cat has been with me for three years, and if I leave, I really won't get used to it. However, Xiao Hei is so spiritual, I believe that it has often disappeared before and returned to this small bamboo building, since the old woman agrees with me to continue to raise it, of course I am happy.

I remembered the purpose of the shrine maiden mother-in-law who brought me here, and with some hesitation, I said, "Mother-in-law......"

The witch mother-in-law nodded and said, "The old body invited you here for the sake of Hongxuan's child." ”

She finally spoke her purpose.

"Mother-in-law, Hongxuan he...... He didn't seem to want to see me...... "I hesitated.

The shrine maiden nodded, "Well, just now he tried his best to dissipate and stop you, do you know why?" ”

I shook my head, and that's where I wondered.

"He doesn't want to see you because he wants you to leave. He's making a fuss with you these days for that. ”

"Leave? Where to leave? I asked curiously.

"Wherever you go, as long as you leave Luojia Village!"

"Why?" I was so excited, why should I leave!

"When Hongxuan returned to Luojia Village, he was already just a wisp of remnant soul, and it was difficult to maintain even a simple human form, only in this forest, his soul power would be strengthened. There are formations here, which can maintain their soul form and nourish their soul bodies. When you see the ghosts outside, they're all souls. ”

But his situation is different, his remnant soul is too weak, and even this forest can't make him recover. Not to mention forming, he is not even in the form of a ghostly fire. ”

"How so?"
