Chapter 13: Is It a Dream?

There were no demons or monsters jumping out, and the magnetic altar was filled with a black liquid like crude oil. As the magnetic altar shattered, the black liquid quickly drained away. Because there were sacks all around, it was impossible to see if it had seeped under the bamboo floor in the dim light.

After waiting for a while, there was no movement, Wan Li breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and smiled: "You two scared me, I thought there was something terrible!" ”

Xiao Xia was still in a stunned state, seeing his boyish appearance of tilting his head and smiling, he suddenly felt that his whole heart softened, and he was about to say something, but when he looked down, he saw a black liquid flowing out from under the sack, it was the thing in the jar, it did not leak down the gap in the sparse bamboo floor, but flowed towards them!

Meandering, like a black snake, quietly sneaking up to Wanli's feet, and Wanli is still barefoot!

"Be careful!" Natsu almost screamed, subconsciously feeling inexplicably terrified, like the panic and uneasiness of losing something important.

She still had the bloodwood sword in her hand, but she was a few steps away from Wanli, and she didn't have time to go over to pull him, so she instinctively threw the bloodwood sword towards the black liquid that was about to approach Wanli's toes.

At the moment when the black water touched Wanli's toes, the bloodwood sword fell to the ground with a 'bang', but because there were sacks scattered all over the ground on one side, only the tip of the sword touched the ground, and most of the sword body was on a pocket next to it.

But the tip of the sword also happened to fall in front of Heishui, not only blocking its sneak attack, but also with an 'ah' sound, Wan Li subconsciously jumped back and dodged it temporarily.

'Hiss' sound, the black water was divided into two like life, as if it had been hit hard and twisted painfully, scattered, from a thick black snake into two small bends, although the flow plummeted, but still did not give up to the feet of Wanli, and very quickly, before Wanli realized it, one of them drilled under the soles of his feet, and the other shot towards Xiao Xia's side.

Xiao Xia's whole energy was focused on Wanli, looking at his feet in shock, she didn't see that there was another stream of black water attacking her, and when she realized it, it was too late to hide.

Am I going to die?

Such a thought flashed through her mind, but she felt a tightness around her waist, and was thrown onto the pile of sacks by an external force, and then saw a fire mark directly pressed against the black water, making the black water twist and coil like a very small snake, and then dissipate into a foul smell of gas in the air!

"How are you?" Ruan Zhan held Wanli, whose body was a little shaky.

Wan Li was still holding a lighter in his hand, but his face was uncertain in the firelight. He smiled weakly, "Looks like I've fallen into the trap again, and this time you have something to say!" ”

"What do you mean?"

"Meaning I might have to take a break!" After speaking, the lighter in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.

In the moments before the light disappeared, Xiao Xia saw Wan Li fall backwards, but Ruan Zhan hugged him behind him.

"Ten thousand miles!" Natsu screamed and wanted to jump off the sack.

But Ruan Zhan in the dark hurriedly stopped her, "Stay there and don't move!" Wait for me! ”

As he spoke, he carried Wanli to the dining hall and gently placed it on the ground, then came in and carried Xiao Xia out, not letting her feet fall to the ground, and then quickly applied a few handprints, evaporating the last remaining black liquid, before hurrying back to the other two.

In the dining hall, Xiao Xia was caressing Wanli's face at a loss, trying to wake him up, but Wanli was motionless, and even his breathing was extremely weak, as if he would die at any time.

"Listen, Natsu-chan." He held Xiao Xia's chin with one hand, allowing her to focus her attention on his words, "Wanli may be a Gu poison, and the person who has a Gu must be found." I want you to guard him here, alone! ”

When Xiao Xia heard that he was leaving, she panicked, but when she knew that this was not her mother-in-law, she immediately strengthened her weak heart.

"I can count on you, can I?"

"Absolutely."

"You have to know that there will be no peace here, so be careful, don't get into trouble."

"I'll wait for you to come back!" Xiao Xia gritted her teeth and said.

Looking at her fragile but forced herself to be strong, Ruan Zhan couldn't bear it at all, but he had to leave, and he had to let her face the uncertain things in the night alone.

When he was in the stove, he heard Natsu's screams and cat meows. He felt that something was wrong, and before he was about to leave to take a look, he was entangled in weeds under his feet. Originally, he thought that it was just firewood for burning, but he didn't expect that this grass was like life, so entangled that he couldn't leave, dragging his legs.

This grass is controlled, and although the strength is weak, it is extremely difficult to get rid of, which also leads to a step too late and does not stop Wanli.

He didn't know Gu arts, he only judged by his feelings, and he didn't know if the fire mudra he had refined could subdue that strange black liquid, so he was just in a hurry to give it a try. And inadvertently, he saw the bushes behind the wild shop moving through the window, and although he only saw a vague figure, he felt that the person must have been there for a long time, and after he noticed it, he ran to the left fork in the road in a panic.

At this time, the person who is sneaky, even if it is not the person who is under the Gu, may be the person who witnessed it. And although there are many ways to solve the Gu, the black water seems to be too sinister and weird, and it is obviously here to deal with them, even a person as hard-headed as Wanli has been put down, it must not be a simple Gu technique. Therefore, he must chase that person, otherwise there will be more than one bad luck!

Or rather, there is no chance at all!

He didn't have time to waste, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to catch up with that man!

In his anxiety, he looked left and right, quickly pulled out a bamboo table next to the door, cut his finger and drew the most protective charm on the wall, dragged Wanli there and set it up, and then put two tables side by side to block him.

He beckoned Natsu to come over and ran his bloody fingers across her eyelids.

"It will make you see things you shouldn't see, and you may be scared, but you can see the way!" He drew her forehead again, "This will keep you from being noticed, and there is one on Wanli's forehead." ”

"I'm not afraid, I'm not a drag on you, I'm also a partner!"

"Yes, I know." For a moment, he wanted to hug her, but he didn't have time, "If you can't hide it, if you touch this talisman with the bloodwood sword, the wall will be broken." I'm afraid Wanli can't help you, you have to try to protect him! If—"

He was extremely worried, although there was not a trace of bad smell in the store now, but when he left, he didn't know what would happen! This choice made it difficult for him to let go of either end of his heart.

"No if, I'll wait for you to come back. Say no more, let's go! ”

Xiao Xia also got under the table as he spoke, reached out to hug Wan Li's neck, rested his head on his shoulder, made him comatose and comfortable, and never looked at Ruan Zhan again, showing his resoluteness with action.

In fact, she really wanted to see Ruan Zhan, but she was afraid that as soon as she saw him, she would be weak again. She's not a child anymore, she knows how dangerous the situation is! The life of thousands of miles may only be this second.

Ruan Zhan gritted his teeth, drew something in the air, and then stepped out without looking back, and when he landed, he had already reached the fork in the road.

He wants to be fast, not only to take back Wanli's life, but also Xiao Xia's life may be within a millimeter!

Thunder began to roll in the sky, and not very bright lightning streaked over the jungle, as if it were shuttling around him, just chasing him, persecuting him, telling him one word—quick.

He ran forward, trying to look at everything around him, feeling his breath, but nothing! After running for a while, the rain started to fall, and he was so anxious that he was going crazy!

Miles! Natsu-chan! You have to hold on and wait for him to go back! He thought in his heart, his eyes were still searching!

Suddenly, a bright lightning bolt slashed through the air, and more than ten seconds later, an earth-shattering thunder roared overhead, and an old tree was unfortunately killed.

As the old tree was split in two, a scream came from behind the tree, and then the grass behind it began to stagger, and a figure passed through the middle.

Ruan Zhan raised his foot and chased after him, tripped over something behind the tree, and looked down to see that it was a shoe, embroidered shoes, very old and worn, but it could be seen that the upper was embroidered with flowers.

It's a flower shoe.

He didn't hesitate and chased deep into the woods!

At the same time, Xiao Xia spent time in panic.

It's one thing to be mentally prepared, and it's good to have firm faith, but it's not bad to be afraid.

Fortunately, there are thousands of miles by her side, although he is unconscious, she still feels that he is with her, she is not alone.

At this time, the rain began to fall again, and gusts of mountain wind beat against the bamboo gate, as if something was about to squeeze in. It was pitch black all around, but she could see it clearly because Ruan Zhan had a blood charm scratched on her eyelids.

Squeak-

Footsteps sounded on the stairs, and from under the table, Xiao Xia could only see a pair of feet floating down, no stepping on the ground, no stepping, but the footsteps were the same as normal people, step by step, followed by a pair of feet, and then a third pair, all barefoot, wearing ordinary black cloth shoes.

"Ah Tu, Ah Mi, why haven't the guests arrived!" A girl's voice rang out.

Xiao Xia immediately recognized it as the Miao girl who didn't let her sleep in the bed! But wasn't it a dream? If she exists, then the other two must be her parents, so isn't this a ghost shop?

It turned out that they actually entered a ghost shop! But Ruan Zhan is so capable, what made him not find out at all?

She hugged Wanli tightly, for fear that he would be discovered. Although Ruan Zhan drew an invisibility talisman for them, Wan Li was also reclining, but he was too tall, his legs were stretched long, if the three ghosts found that the table had moved its position and floated over and moved, they would not step on it, but they would definitely kick his feet! Then they'll find out!

The Bloodwood Sword was also wrong, it was obviously placed in her hand, but for some reason it didn't emit the beautiful red light that would be emitted when it met with evil!

"Hurry up the ghosts!" The woman who has never made a sound opens her mouth.

After saying this, the three ghosts suddenly fell silent, and stood side by side less than two feet away from Xiao Xia, as if they were waiting for some guest to arrive!

Cloth? Isn't it the weirdo who can't see his face clearly in his dreams?
