Chapter 4: An Ancient Curse

What is this sound? Long Yang concentrated on watching the changes in the cave entrance.

Four or five humanoid objects landed from the sky and flew down from the sky. Long Yang vaguely saw that there were bird-like wings behind them. What kind of monster is this? How can there be such a thing in the world?

The current situation did not allow Long Yang to think too much, and he used all his eyesight to carefully identify and confirm that it was a five-humanoid monster.

They stood still at the mouth of the cave, squeaking and talking to each other, and the cacophony gave goosebumps to their voices.

One of them seemed to be the leader, squeaking and giving orders to the other four. After that, the four monsters rushed to the coffin of the old patriarch. Lifting the corpse of the old patriarch, he soared into the dark night sky.

Long Yang couldn't help but gasp, what were they going to do? There are no treasures in the coffin of the old patriarch, so what they want is the corpse of the old patriarch.

Thinking of this, Long Yang's body was unstable, he took a step back, stepped on a piece of sand, and the small stone rolled along the cliff.

"Huh! Huh! ”

The monster led by the monster watched vigilantly at Long Yang's hidden position, and let out a call of incomprehension.

Long Yang felt a splitting headache, and the whistling sound seemed to burrow into his head, stimulating his mind and fiddling with his nerves.

Long Yang hurriedly held his head in his hands and hid deeply under the boulder, not daring to make any more sounds, nor making any movements.

In a moment, the stinging sensation disappeared, Long Yang held his breath, and when he heard that there was no more suspicious sound outside, he dared to poke his head out secretly and observe the situation at the entrance of the cave outside.

The monsters outside all disappeared, and of course, along with the coffin of the old patriarch.

It's not that Long Yang is afraid, it's true that because he's too young, an eight-year-old child encounters something that can't be explained and can't take action, he can only be at a loss.

Rubbing his eyes that were already astringent, and beating his legs that were numb, Long Yang cautiously retreated away from the hiding place, and after reaching a certain distance, he immediately spread his legs and ran, as if the monster was still behind him, looking at his back.

Long Yang stumbled home, and when he arrived at the door, he didn't dare to enter the door immediately. A loud gasp would reveal his whereabouts, and he could not face his mother's face, already haggard from exertion. This was the first time Long Yang had lied to his mother, although this lie was only an excuse for himself to act alone.

After the gasp calmed down, Long Yang smiled and pushed open the door.

"Mom, I'm back!"

"It's good to come back, come! Drink some hot water and rest early, I have to go to school tomorrow. Jin Qin put down the work in her hand and poured a bowl of water for Long Yang.

"Mom, you forgot, we have a holiday." Long Yang said mischievously to his mother.

"Look at my memory! Hey, old man! ”

"Mom is never old!" Long Yang hugged his mother's arm and shook it gently.

"Mom, have you forgotten what I told you before? In fact, our family of three has never been separated, and I can be with my father at night, can't you see him? Long Yang looked at his mother, his immature face was full of seriousness.

"Okay, you can see it, my little dragon is amazing, mom believes in you." In fact, Jin Qin didn't believe Long Yang's words, she only regarded it as the content of the child's dreams at night.

He didn't want Long Shaoyun, why didn't he want to see Long Shaoyun, she was willing to believe it, but because she knew that it was unrealistic, she couldn't believe it.

The house of the Longyang family is a stone house made of three rooms, the middle is a place to eat and entertain guests, and the east and west houses are a place to sleep. Now his mother sleeps in the West House, Long Yang sleeps in the East House, and Long Yang sleeps alone when he was six years old.

Long Yang was lying on the bed tossing and turning, he didn't understand what happened tonight, what were those monsters? Why did they carry away the coffin of the old patriarch? These questions lingered in Long Yang's mind and lingered for a long time.

If you think about problems, you can't sleep, and if you can't sleep, you still have to think about problems.

Long Yang got up from the bed and sat cross-legged on the bed, slowly slowing down his breathing, relaxing his body, and entering a state of silence. This is what Long Shaoyun taught him, saying that he can calm his mind and abandon his troubles. Long Yang is too young to understand troubles, but this method can really calm his mind.

It really had an effect, and Long Yang calmed down his state of mind.

"Who are you!" The heart, which had just calmed down, was suddenly replaced by a tingling sensation that quickly rose from the heart to the scalp and then spread throughout the body.

The cold moonlight shone through the window on the wooden table used for Long Yang's writing, and at this time there was a pale figure sitting on the wooden table, looking straight at Long Yang on the bed.

The two looked at each other, one with a fried scalp and the other gloating.

"Grandpa, you're trying to scare me to death! How did you get to my house? Long Yang jumped down from the bed and asked in a deep voice.

"Long Yang, what's wrong with you?" Mother's inquiry came from Westinghouse.

"Oh, Mom, it's okay! A bobcat passed by the window and had been beaten away by me. ”

"Then you go to bed early!"

"Oh!" finally dealt with his mother's side, and Long Yang also broke out in a cold sweat.

"Grandpa, say it quickly!"

"I was anxious about your safety, so I had to come to your house to see you, and I was relieved to see that you were okay. Now that you've come, tell me what you saw tonight. The old patriarch said.

"Grandpa, no wonder you're looking for a body everywhere, five monsters carried your body away tonight. No, it should have been carried and flown away. Long Yang truthfully told the old patriarch what he saw.

"Carried and flew away? Could that old curse be real? The old patriarch had a shocked expression, it turned out that he was also thundered.

"Tell me what kind of monster it is. By the way, why do you say they're monsters? ”

"For though they were in human form, they had wings, like the wings of a great bird. Because it was dark, I couldn't see what it looked like. Long Yang said.

The old patriarch listened carefully to Xiao Longyang's narration, immersed in silent thought.

"Grandpa, what kind of curse are you talking about?" Long Yang thought to himself, what ancient curse does the monster have to do with the monster carrying away Grandpa's body?

"It doesn't hurt to tell you. Our village has been around for a long, long time, and even I don't know its secrets. Our surname is Jin, but in fact, our surname is Jin. It is a group of fallen royalty, descendants of a cursed royal family. There is no peace in life, and there is no corpse in death. These eight words are curses. ”

"Now I'm telling you, you can't understand it, hey! Death without leaving a corpse has really been fulfilled. The old patriarch couldn't help but sigh secretly, not knowing whether to sigh at the ancient curse or sigh at the fulfillment of the curse on him.

"Grandpa, how did you know that something like this would happen on the night of the fifteenth? Why are you looking for me to go there? Long Yang was full of questions, although he had always been ignorant.

"Because I was told. The man told me that only you can see them, and you must be able to see those monsters! You've been different since you were a child, and maybe you can feel it yourself. For example, if you can see me, it means that you were born with ghost eyes, which are often referred to as yin and yang eyes. People with this ability can see the wronged in the yang, the ghosts in the underworld, and even more so can shuttle between yin and yang. The old patriarch's explanation let Long Yang know that he had abilities that were different from ordinary people. This ability is only manifested in seeing the old patriarch now, and it may be more effective in the future.

"Grandpa, is the other person in danger?" Long Yang suddenly thought of the words "life without peace", and he was worried for a while.

"Haha, it's okay. I'm the last person with royal blood, and the others are not in danger. Well, you're good, don't say anything about careful observation, don't panic when you encounter problems, calmly analyze, and have your father's genetics. The old patriarch seemed to think of something pleasing to him, and his expression was happy.

"What is my father's genetics?"

"When it comes to Long Shaoyun, you have a lot of problems, and you will understand in the future, I'm leaving." Without waiting for Long Yang to reply, the old patriarch had disappeared.

It's really suffocating, and tonight is destined to be sleepless.
