Chapter 263: The Secret of the Ancestral Hall (Part II)
At one o'clock in the morning, the whole village fell silent, and then the group came to the ancestral hall of the torture family again.
To be honest, I don't know where such a large group of people usually live. In order to avoid some unnecessary trouble, I stayed in the yard all the time.
At this time, I watched as the puppet I had placed in the courtyard suddenly flashed a faint light, and then a dark shadow appeared next to the puppet. The moment the puppet fell, the black shadow ran towards the temple.
Seeing this, I quickly returned to my body, and after a period of vertigo, I slowly opened my eyes.
I saw Rong Rong sitting at the table of the Eight Immortals, holding another doll in her left hand and a yellow-colored paper talisman in her right hand.
There was an incense burner on the table, and the wisps of incense burning in the incense burner floated into the air and then directly into the puppet's body.
Rong Rong stood there, her eyes were white and there were no pupils, and the clothes on her body were windless and automatic, but the whole feeling was very weird.
Soon, the three incense sticks in the censer burned out. Rong Rong suddenly spoke, and said at me in a treacherous and delicate voice, "Continue." ”
I didn't dare to slack off, so I quickly stepped forward and lit three incense offerings and inserted them in the incense burner. And just as I approached the incense burner, I noticed that the table under the incense burner was covered with some strange characters painted with cinnabar, and the surface of those characters floated with a strange light.
About two hours later, Rong Rong suddenly closed her eyes, and when she opened her eyes again, the top of her eyeballs had already recovered their original pupils.
She slowly lowered the doll in her hand and sat down in her chair, gasping for air.
"Figured out ......"
"What?"
"There is a tunnel under the ancestral hall, although I don't know what is in this tunnel, but those people have gone into the tunnel."
It seems that this black witchcraft is not as simple as I imagined, as the so-called self-damage before hurting people, this black witchcraft is also very harmful to the practitioners.
Whatever those people are doing, we need to get some rest today.
After carrying Rong Rong to the bed, I turned around and went to clean up the things on the table. It wasn't until about two o'clock in the morning that I was finally able to lie down in bed and rest.
The bed was huge, so we wouldn't feel cramped when we both lay on it.
"Brother Cui, to be honest, I envy Mengyue."
"Really?"
I smiled wryly.
"Yes, I envy her for having a warm family, and I envy her for having someone who loves her all the time. Actually, I was very happy a long time ago, but for some reason I was mixed up with the current appearance of no one and no ghost. ”
I turned my head to look at Rong Rong lying beside me, and I could feel the negative energy slowly growing on her body, but I didn't know how to comfort her, because I knew that her tragic experiences could not be erased in a few words.
Suddenly, Rong Rong grabbed my hand, and the cold touch immediately spread to my whole body.
At that moment, my breathing became rapid, and my heart began to bump into me. Although I was lying in the same bed with her at this time, I never thought anything wrong about her.
I subconsciously withdrew my hand, but found that her arm was clenched tightly, so I didn't break free for a while.
In this case, as a normal man, I began to feel a slight heat on my face. So I simply turned my head to the side and didn't look at her.
She slowly leaned towards me, and I could feel the chill creeping in. Eventually, her head rested gently on my shoulder.
"This normal human body temperature ...... I haven't felt it in a long time. ”
I didn't speak, and even my breathing began to slow slowly.
"What are you nervous about?"
"I ...... Not...... No, I don't. ”
As I spoke, I suddenly felt a slight bitterness at the corners of my mouth. It felt like something was dripping into my mouth, and then the bitter taste began to slowly spread in my mouth.
And when he spread to the extreme, the taste evolved into a hint of sweetness.
"I'm sorry ......"
My head was starting to get a little messy, and then I felt a little hot all over my body. I don't know why Rong Rong suddenly apologized, but I just felt my lips suddenly cold.
What happened that night, I can't remember much afterwards. Anyway, when I woke up the next day, I saw Rong Rong lying quietly beside me, breathing evenly.
"Are you awake?"
I sat up abruptly and turned to look at the dark shadow standing on the edge of the bed smiling at me.
"What are you laughing at, you...... You ......"
"You know better than me what I'm laughing at, don't pretend to be garlic."
I looked at him blankly.
"Big brother, what happened last night, I really don't know, can you tell me?"
The black shadow waved his hand and said with a smile, "The Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, you are infatuated. Gu, your memories from last night have been eaten away by that Gu worm, so you don't need to recall it anymore. ”
"Then I'm ......"
"You don't have to feel so guilty, her body was too weak last night, and it is also necessary to make up for it with the help of your yang fire."
With that, the shadow went straight into my body. At this time, I heard Rong Rong also wake up, and she opened her eyes and looked at me.
"Inner ......"
I wanted to say something, but it was a little hard to say for a while.
But at this time, Rong Rong's face was much better, her cheeks were flushed, and her lips were a little bloody.
And just when the two of us looked at each other awkwardly, the old grandmother's voice suddenly came from outside the house. When Rong Rong and I walked out of the room, we saw that my grandmother had already made breakfast for me.
"Aren't you going to eat it?"
The old lady waved her hand and said, "Yesterday we entered the ancestral hall of the criminal family. ”
Rong Rong and I looked at each other and asked, "How do you know?" ”
"Someone saw a ladder on the wall of that courtyard this morning, someone must have gone in and made trouble, I have to go and see."
For a family, the status of this ancestral hall can be seen. At this time, Rong Rong and I couldn't sit still, so we hurriedly followed.
When we reached the door, we saw that the ancestral hall was already full of people.
"The ladder was not removed, that is...... That guy didn't come out last night? ”
Rong Rong nodded slightly, and said, "How big is this tunnel, more than a dozen of them can stay down there for a day...... Is it trapped inside? ”
"Where's the entrance to the tunnel?"
"Just under the bookshelves in the back room."
