Chapter Seventy-One: The Favor of the Blood Moon

"This wooden comb...... This is my first harvest when I recently moved to Linyang, and I made a good deal with an old acquaintance in exchange, does it have a connection with you? Tianyi walked behind Yuan Xi silently, holding a half-lit cigarette butt in his hand, I don't know what kind of cigarette it is, Yuan Xi didn't smell the slightest pungent feeling, on the contrary, his body and mind were comfortable and refreshed.

"There was once a dangerous ghost attached to it!" Yuan Xi looked at the motionless black shadow, and the shadow was also watching her silently, as if she saw the hideous girl who walked towards her from the sea of fire that night.

"Really?" Tianyi said commonplacely, and he gently stroked the glass cover of the isolation wooden comb: "This is not unusual, everything here is inseparable from the spirit world, no matter what they were in the past?" What's the story? Now they can only sleep here silently as part of my collection, waiting for the arrival of the person who receives their message. ”

With the movement of Tianyi's hand on the glass cover, the wooden comb began to tremble slightly, and the face of the black shadow standing next to the broken wooden comb gradually became clearer, gradually turning into the same face as Yuan Xi, and the eyes also changed from dead black to bright blue......

"If it's calling you, then I'll uncover it." Tianyi said softly, threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground and stepped on it, carefully lifted the glass cover that sealed the wooden comb with both hands, and then gently placed it on the ground, as the glass cover was uncovered, a black aura that Yuan Xi could clearly see spread on the wooden comb.

"What am I going to do? I don't have a good impression of this wooden comb, is it dangerous? Although the vague girl shadow did not mean to attack Yuan Xi, and it could even be said that there was no malicious aura at all, Yuan Xi still had to hesitate when he thought of the experience a few days ago.

"The collections here are all specially processed, the so-called evil ghosts, their essence will not be evil, their attacks on ordinary people are only because of the control and guidance of the spirit world and the drive of inner obsession, and in my post office, neither the spirit world nor reality can interfere here, so you can safely see the essence of the ghost under the dangerous surface, if there are still complete ghosts in the connection, you may even communicate with them normally. As for what you need to do? Just reach out and touch it with peace of mind. Tianyi patiently explained to Yuan Xi.

"I can sense that you are also a person with a unique connection to the spirit world, you only need to touch it, you can read everything hidden in this wooden comb, this is your unique ability, called Spiritual Vision." Tianyi's dark eyes were as deep as the starry sky of the universe, and Yuan Xi only felt that he seemed to see through everything about himself with just one glance.

Just need to be touched? Yuan Xi hesitated for a moment, and slowly stretched out her hand to the broken wooden comb, she felt that Tianyi had no need to deceive herself at all, although Tianyi was mysterious, but it was inexplicably reassuring, completely different from Yang Yinnian, if Yang Yinnian was like a volcano that did not erupt, there was devastating tyranny and cruelty hidden under the calm appearance, and Tianyi was like a quiet and endless starry sky, shining silently in the world under the brightness, not dangerous, but alienated and mysterious.

Under Tianyi's encouraging gaze and the girl's dark shadow's gaze, Yuan Xi touched the wooden comb.

Just the moment he touched the wooden comb, a cold chill flowed through his body, and Yuan Xi seemed to sink into another world, and countless sounds and pictures surged, staggered and combined into countless fragmented shots......

He was lying in a small boat with another maiden who looked exactly like her, and he was paddling, and looking at the hands of the oars, he was a man in this memory, and the maiden was lying lazily in the stern, singing carelessly, and the clear song drifted on the quiet sea:

"Her pupils bloom like the River Styx, and her breath is like the other side......"

The lone boat floated on the dark sea, the huge lighthouse on the cliff behind them striking the beam on the sea, illuminating the way ahead, and they rowed the boat towards a blood-colored moon at the end of the sea, while behind them, a black sun slowly sank into the end of the horizon.

"Where are we going?" Yuan Xi looked at the countless black shadows swimming like mermaids in the pitch-black sea on both sides of the boat, and asked with some palpitations, and then she felt strange about her current voice, she made the voice of another young boy who did not belong to her, and it seemed that she was still in the stage of voice change, a little hoarse.

"We're going home, I miss Dad, Mom should have made us dinner and waited for us at home......" The girl replied in the same clear voice as Yuan Xi, she got up from the stern of the boat, and touched Yuan Xi's forehead with her soft little hand, and those innocent eyes swelled with pure blue.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Uncomfortable? ”

"I'm fine, just something else popped into the pop of mind." I don't know why, seeing that flawless and pure little face, Yuan Xi only felt that there was something distorted and dark in his heart jumping and shouting to jump out, he twisted his head to the side uneasily, and his face was slightly red.

"Brother, look over there!" As if she hadn't noticed Yuan Xi's strangeness, the girl pointed to the distance of the sea in horror, Yuan Xi followed the direction of her finger and saw a scene that could only be seen in the most terrible nightmares-

Countless corpses floated from the surface of the sea. The blistered corpses poured towards them along the flow of the sea, accompanied by countless pieces of wood, garbage and debris, and the clothes on the bodies of many corpses were tattered, most of them were difficult to cover their bodies, and they seemed to have sunk to the bottom of the sea not long ago, densely packed, at least hundreds of corpses floated towards them, and soon some of the corpses flowed down to the side of the brother and sister's boat, and they could clearly see the disgusting and rotting faces looming on the sea, and some of the corpses were disemboweled, and their internal organs were floating in the sea, seeing this terrible scene, The girl cried out in horror.

"Don't look," he said, trying to make his voice calm, holding the girl in his arms and covering her eyes with his hands.

However, he soon saw a scene that he would never forget in his life.

The corpse of a middle-aged man in a shabby suit slammed into the side of the ship, his neat hair messy in the water, his once ruddy face now sickly bruised, and a shocking burning wound on his right eye, as if someone had brutally stabbed him in the right eye with something hot.

"Daddy......" he cried out in horror.

Another woman's face, which had lost its beauty because of her bloating, floated in the sea, with her long, wavy burgundy hair, and her blue eyes, which were mostly rotten, and she was left with only half of her rotten head floating in the ocean.

"Mom?!" He cried out in a near-breakdown.

"What's wrong with Mom and Dad?" The girl in his arms asked, confused.

He opened his mouth, stopped talking, and a few tears unconsciously welled up in the corners of his eyes.

"They're still at home waiting for us to go back......" he hugged the girl in his arms tighter, and he whispered:

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, the night will soon pass, and we are almost home."

However, the long night on the sea never ends, only the light of the lighthouse, which rotates and moves endlessly.

He took out the dark red wooden comb from his bosom, and gently combed the somewhat messy black hair of the girl in his arms over and over again, and he muttered in his mouth:

"The hair is messy again, little Yuan Xi wants to go home beautifully, when my mother sees you, if I don't take good care of you, I will be unhappy."

"When will I see my mother?" The girl in her arms asked suspiciously and sadly.

"Soon, soon." He whispered his face to the girl's ear, and the dark sea was scarlet with the blood-colored moonlight.

He could see in the distance under the moonlight, an island gradually emerging from the distance, and on the beach of the island, countless black stone statues as tall as giants stood silently watching them......

The next moment, everything in front of her suddenly shattered into nothing, Yuan Xi realized that she had never been boating on the sea, had never entered any "Blood Moon Post Office" at all, and there was no Tianyi whispering around her, she just kept standing on the streets of the city in a daze, pedestrians rushing back and forth, her empty eyes had no center, as if she had never seen anything.

She raised her right hand, only to see that there was an extra symbol on her hand at some point, indicating what kind of place she had just entered......

A blood-red crescent.

It's better to go back as soon as possible, she thought, there are so many dangerous and unpredictable things in this city, and God knows what else she will encounter if she continues to wander around......

And somewhere where Yuan Xi was invisible at this time, the Blood Moon Post Office had sunk into the edge realm between the spiritual world and reality, Tianyi sat lazily on his desk, picked up a cup of black tea and took a sip, Tianyi excitedly watched Yuan Xi's back gradually disappearing into the crowd, as if he saw some fresh toy.

Tianyi casually threw it behind him, and two pieces of broken mahogany comb, which had completely devoid of any resentment, drew two graceful parabolas in mid-air, and fell into a trash can placed in the corner of the room at the same time.

"It's interesting, it's so interesting, such a large scale of the spiritual realm, so many hidden mysteries, so many resentful breaths." Tianyi took a deep breath, looking intoxicated, he lowered his head and opened the first page of a blood-colored "Grimm's Fairy Tales", and his eyes were a blood-colored moon, and someone wrote a few crooked small words under the moon symbol:

"It's a snowy world."

He gently rubbed the rough cover of the heavy fairy tale, and turned the pages of the so-called "Grimm's Fairy Tales", which seemed to be very old, and it was actually made of parchment, and there was not a single Chinese character in the main text, but all of it was uneven dot matrix braille for the blind to read.

"Can you give me an answer, O great Lord of the Blood Moon? Why do you care so much about this ordinary city? Tianyi whispered as he stroked the Braille and was reading the "fairy tale" word by word.

A cold wind rose out of thin air in the Blood Moon Post Office, blowing out all the flickering candlelight in the post office at the same time, burying everything in the darkness.
