Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Mysterious Woman

There was a sense of unease in Chang'an, where the moon in the sky was obscured by dark clouds, and there were only a few stars.

In a sycamore forest on the outskirts of Chang'an, the birds seemed to be frightened, squeaking and squeaking and hurriedly fleeing. In winter, all the leaves on the trees fall, leaving only the red trunks.

Suddenly there was an eerie humming sound from the woods, where they should have been silent, and the lyrics were vague and somewhat unclear. But the melody is inexplicable and terrifying.

On one of the tallest and strongest plane trees sat a woman, who covered the lower half of her face with a strangely colored veil, revealing only a pair of dark and shining eyes.

The tall sycamore had lost its leaves, but she sat inconspicuously, covered in a black cloak, and the long green silk was unrestrained, fluttering smoothly in the wind.

"Someone in the government has noticed you, go back to Miaojiang!" A neutral male voice suddenly sounded in the woods, and only the sound was heard, but no figure was seen.

The corners of the woman's mouth covered under the veil had already been raised, a chill flashed in her eyes, and she replied in a calm tone: "So what? Find a substitute for the dead. ”

"You!" The man didn't seem to expect the woman to reply like this, and he was angry for a while, and he slowed down for a while before continuing: "You must know that being targeted is a dead end!"

This was already very serious, and the man's voice gritted his teeth contained a warning, but the woman did not panic at all, her bare feet dangled in mid-air, and a crisp bell sounded.

Look closely, the woman's white and tender ankle is tied with a red rope, and a few silver bells are hung on it, and the bell is a small one, but it is engraved with complex patterns.

"Chang'an is so fun, I haven't played enough." The woman smiled as she spoke, but her eyes were cold.

The man didn't know what to do when he heard this, and he was silent for a long time before he said helplessly: "Okay, I'll find a substitute ghost who can do Gu magic for you as soon as possible, you play and play, don't let people find out."

A small figure huddled under a large tree, her eyes full of fear as she listened to these words. folded his hands and covered his mouth tightly, for fear that the strange woman would see his existence.

This person is Jiao'er who was driven out by the Lu family, not long after she left the Lu family, the money bag was snatched away by the thief, but fortunately, she looked good, and her hands and feet were also smart, so she was able to fill her stomach.

Now that I have figured it out, what kind of character is Qin Gongzi, where would he look down on his mediocre self. But it's all a trick, a trick to force her away.

It's just that she doesn't understand, what kind of person is it, what kind of resentment? Do you have to force her to do this?

It took a lot of effort for her to earn enough silver taels, rent an ox cart, and want to go back.

When she arrived at the sycamore forest, the driver suddenly said that the sycamore forest was not easy to walk at night, and refused to move forward.

Jiao'er is a girl who grew up in the countryside, and when she was a child, she spent the night in the woods, so she could only scold her for being unlucky. The clothes on the body are thick, and they are not cold, but the cold wind blows on the face, and it hurts.

When I thought of the ox cart, I hated it so much that I used all the vulgar words to lose my temper.

The man's voice was no longer heard in the woods, and Jiao'er held her breath and listened with her ears pricked up.

Something squirmed and climbed onto her snow-white wrist, maybe the nerves were too tight, and Jiao'er didn't feel it at all.

It wasn't until there was a heart-piercing pain in her left wrist that she realized the existence of the insect, a gray-brown insect that looked a little like a leech in a field.

The insect had already burrowed half of its body into Jiao'er's skin, and the skin bulged into a bag the size of a thumb cap, still blue and purple. The worm was still wriggling violently, trying to shove itself in.

"Ahh With the pain in her heart, Jiao'er screamed, she wanted to raise her right hand to pull out the worm, but for some reason, she didn't have any strength in her body, so she could only watch the worm burrow into her skin.

"Heh, little girl, didn't anyone tell you that there was a price to pay for eavesdropping?" The woman who was sitting on the trunk of the tree appeared in front of her at some point, stepping on the endless night and dead leaves, and slowly walked in the direction of Jiao'er.

Those eyes are deep, like a bottomless abyss, and there is no end in sight.

At this moment, Jiao'er regretted it very much, she knew that this was the case, so she honestly nested in the Lu family. At least they don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and the two old men of the Lu family are also very good to themselves.

She shuddered, fear enveloped her whole body like a dark cloud, her lips tingled a little, and a few words came out of her throat: "I didn't hear anything......"

Hearing this, the woman raised her eyebrows, she tilted her head suspiciously, and whispered: "If you lie, I will cut your tongue~"

She deliberately dragged out the last word, and looked at Jiao'er with interest like a fish on the meat, trembling and afraid.

Strange to say, not long after the worm entered Jiao'er's body, the bag that rose out of her wrist disappeared, and there was no trace at all, and her whole body gradually gained strength.

There was an inexplicable aura on the woman's body, which made Jiao'er tremble and didn't dare to move, she had a feeling in the dark that as long as she dared to resist, she would definitely die.

"Since you heard my words, then you can't decide your life." The woman squatted down, her nails were painted with red Kodan, she pinched Jiao'er's chin, and there was some pity in her eyes, "If you want to blame it, blame your life, be a man in the next life, don't eavesdrop anymore." ”

As he spoke, his skinny hand slowly moved down. The cold hand touched Jiao'er's warm neck, and she gently rubbed it for a moment, and then began to exert force.

The suffocating despair made Jiao'er's eyes red, and she still had the strength to grab the woman's hand and want to struggle at first, but there was only a faint inhalation sound behind her, and the tears in her eyes rolled down.

Her face turned the color of pig liver because of lack of oxygen, and when Jiao'er's eyes were almost closed, the woman let go in vain.

Jiao'er, who escaped death, didn't have time to think about why, her throat was hot and painful, but she still breathed in the fresh air, like a fish starved of water.

"Since you eavesdropped, it's cheap for you to let you die like this," the woman changed her mind, she squinted her eyes and looked Jiao'er up and down, "You do things for me, and I'll let you live well." ”

"Good!" Although Jiao'er didn't understand what she was going to do for this woman, it was better than death.

She was very frightened and covered her neck with her hands, for fear that the woman in front of her would rebel.
