Chapter 48: Trapped

After entering the village

Lu Jian and Shen Ci walked side by side towards the village.

The village was quiet, except for the rustling of the wind and the footsteps of the two men.

But it's because it's so quiet, so it's very weird.

"Shen Gongzi, do you know where the antique you are looking for is?" Lu Jian wanted to break the deathly silence, turned his head to look at Shen Ci and asked.

"In the far southeast," Shen said.

Lu Jian pursed his lips, they came in from the entrance to the west of the village, and if they wanted to get something, they had to pass through the entire village.

As the two were talking, a cool breeze suddenly blew in front of them, which made people shiver.

"It's a cold wind"

Shen Ci frowned slightly, and his good-looking peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly.

"Be careful" After speaking, Lu Jian took out the compass from his bag and began to recite the formula.

The compass can locate the yin qi of nearby ghosts, and they can save a lot of trouble as long as they try to avoid the direction the compass is pointing.

After reciting the formula, the compass hands began to rotate rapidly, and the speed was extremely fast.

Lu Jian couldn't help frowning when he looked at the red pointer on the compass that didn't stop turning at all.

The compass rotates to indicate that there is a yin evil nearby, and it does not keep turning to indicate that it cannot determine the specific location of the yin and evil.

This compass is made of special materials and is very precise.

I can't even tell it, so I can see how powerful this evil is.

The compass was invalid, so Lu Jian had no choice but to put it away, and then she took out a wooden talisman from her bag and handed it to Shen Ci.

"This one can defend yourself, you take it with you"

"Good"

Shen Ci took the wooden talisman and pinned it to his waist.

"What did Miss Lu see just now?" Shen Ci saw that Lu Jian frowned just now, and felt that the situation might not be good.

Lu Jian shook his head: "The location of the evil can't be determined, let's try to be as fast as possible, it's best to come out before dark" Lu Jian paused after saying and added: "Call me Lu Jian"

It's okay for Miss Lu to call one or two sentences, but it's too awkward to keep calling.

"Okay, you can also call me Shen Ci"

After Shen Ci finished speaking, he smiled at Lu Jian, and his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, which was very good-looking.

Lu Jian was indifferent, and complained in his heart about 'squinting monsters'

If it weren't for the fact that she had seen too many good-looking goblins, she might have really been stunned by the smile she had just faced.

The two continued to walk towards the village, and after walking for a while, they saw the houses.

The surroundings are still very quiet, but compared to just now, Lu Jian always has a feeling of being stared at by many pairs of eyes.

Her instincts had always been accurate, and it was better to be more careful.

After walking for a long time, I finally came to the southeasternmost part of the village.

There is no danger or anything strange happening at the moment.

It's just that the feeling of being stared at is getting stronger and stronger.

The two stopped, and Lu Jian pulled out the rune short sword pinned to his waist, held it in his hand, and watched the surroundings vigilantly.

She always felt that the current atmosphere was like the eve of a storm, very depressing.

Shen Ci kept walking around, holding a red thing in his hand, looking down from time to time.

Lu Jian couldn't see what he was holding because he was far away, but she speculated that she should be able to find the antique thing.

A moment later

Shen Ci finally stopped in front of a house, with a little joy on his face.

Shen Ci beckoned to Lu Jian and motioned for her to come over.

"Found it?" Lu Jian walked over, looked at Shen Ci and asked.

"Well, it should be in this house" Shen Ci nodded, his expression very affirmative.

"Let's go" Lu Jian said, then walked to the door and gently pushed.

Then, the door creaked open a crack.

Lu Jian was a little surprised, she thought that this door was plugged in, but she didn't expect it to open with a light push.

Lu Jian walked in first, followed by Shen Ci.

This house is not big, there are only three houses, if the antiques are here, it should be easy to find.

Lu Jian was in the courtyard, she didn't know what the antique looked like, and Shen Ci also had his own way to find the antique, so she didn't help find it.

Her mission this time is equivalent to a bodyguard, responsible for protecting Shen Ci's safety.

As for the antique, she also knows a little, as long as it is not a murderous thing, then it has nothing to do with her.

After a long while, Shen Ci came out of the house.

Lu Jian stood in the courtyard, saw his calm expression, and thought that something had been found.

"Something has been found, let's go," Shen Ci said.

"Hmm" Lu Jian nodded, it was still a while before it got dark, enough for them to leave here.

From the moment she came in, she didn't feel a trace of yin qi, which should have been good, but she always felt that something was wrong.

With so many people dying in this village overnight, there is no reason why there is no trace of yin qi.

The two did not dare to delay, and quickly rushed in the direction they came.

After walking for nearly half an hour, Lu Jian suddenly stopped, his face cold.

They obviously walked back the way they came, and under normal circumstances, they could already see the main street of Huangyang Village.

But now they still have all kinds of winding streets in front of them.

Lu Jian's face was a little cold, she didn't realize that something was wrong now.

Then, Lu Jian took out the formation talisman from his bag, wanting to break the maze that trapped them.

Shen Ci also noticed that something was wrong, his expression became serious, and he held the red thing tightly in his hand, which was similar to the one who was smiling before.
