I already felt that the tip of the knife was about to pierce the back of Long Xiaoman's hand, but Long Xiaoman didn't say a word, and didn't move at all.

At this time, I suddenly heard a sharp roar from the old woman, "What are you going to do!" ”

When I looked up, I saw the little mute smiling at me, and then his whole body suddenly dispersed like ashes, enveloping him in a thin layer of red mist.

At the same time, Long Xiaoman snatched the dagger from my hand with a lightning backhand, and threw the dagger out with a whoosh while the old woman was panicking.

Burst!

The old woman's throat was cut open, leaving behind a dark green liquid, and then her whole body was like a mist, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a cloud of ashes.

"Little dumb!" I cried out the name of the little mute, and waved my hands in a frenzy in the thin red mist, but all I could catch was air.

"Your little mute has lost his soul on his own in order to save you." Long Xiaoman stood next to him and whispered.

"Little mute, little mute!" I cried, and Long Xiaoman walked up to me and sighed softly, "You sit down." ”

"Get out!" I was so sad in my heart that I pushed Long Xiaoman away, but I heard her shout, "If you want to save the little mute, just do as I say, sit cross-legged and close your eyes!" ”

I was stunned, and hurriedly did what she said, at this time, as long as I could save the little mute, I could do anything.

"Close your eyes, don't open them!" I felt Long Xiaoman pull off one of my hairs, and then I heard her chant a string of incantations that I didn't understand, and then there was a very strange movement.

A gust of wind blew around for no reason, the leaves shook and rattled, and Long Xiaoman's spell became faster and faster, and then a fighting sound was heard.

I closed my eyes and didn't dare to open them, my mind was full of the safety of the little mute, and it took about ten minutes before the surroundings were quiet again.

"Alright, open your eyes." I heard Long Xiaoman say.

When I opened my eyes, I saw Long Xiaoman holding on to a big tree, his face was pale, and a few strands of hair on his forehead were wet with sweat, looking very haggard.

She took out a translucent red bead and handed it to me, and said weakly, "I did my best, this is the last trace of the little mute's spirit, as long as this trace of spirit is there, the little mute will not be lost for the time being." ”

I took the bead and shouted, "Little mute, little mute, come out!" ”

"Stop shouting!" Long Xiaoman wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, his face was very pale, and his lips were a little chapped, "I only keep the last trace of her spirit, she is unconscious, and she can't hear you." ”

I anxiously asked what to do, is it forever?

Long Xiaoman shook his head, "As long as the spirit is there, there is still hope, but this is difficult, my Taoism is far from enough, she is your ghost wife, only you can save her." ”

I said, "Then what am I going to do, you tell me, even if it kills me, I'm willing!" ”

"You need to be strong." Long Xiaoman looked like his complexion was slowly recovering, "If you are strong enough, not only can you resurrect the soul of the little mute, but if you find a suitable host, you can even make her reborn as a human!" ”

I looked at Long Xiaoman, "Long Xiaoman, I hate you very much!" ”

When I had said that, I continued, "But now, I beg you to help me, to make me strong, to resurrect the little mute, don't you want my life?" I promise you, when the little mute is resurrected, I will give you my life! ”

Long Xiaoman looked at me in a daze, "You also heard it just now, your little mute was not a human from the beginning, her purpose in entering your village was even to harm people, but now you have to pay such a big price for her, I want to know why." ”

I looked at her and said word by word, "Okay, you answer me a question first, the little mute came into my house, no matter what her purpose was, but the fact I know is that not only did she not harm anyone, but she saved me again and again, do you know why?" ”

Long Xiaoman thought for a while and said, "I don't understand this either, the Holy Lord in the mouth of the old monster just now should be a very powerful character." Since the little mute was at its will, I don't know why he openly confronted it later. ”

I sneered, "Let me tell you, in this world, there is a thing called love, which cannot be seen or touched, but when it comes, it is unstoppable." The little mute can disobey the powerful holy will for me, and I can pay any price for the sake of the little mute. ”

After finishing speaking, I turned around and left, as if I heard Long Xiaoman muttering to himself behind me, "Love? Is that really the case? ”

On the way back, I didn't say a word, and my mind was full of thoughts about the little mute.

Long Xiaoman didn't speak all the time, and he didn't drive the car very fast, as if he was thinking about something.

After a few moments, she suddenly asked me, "What does it feel like to love someone?" ”

I closed my eyes and didn't speak.

After a moment of silence, I heard her take a soft breath, "Let's get down to business, there must be some secret behind this matter." I think it should have something to do with the Holy Lord that the old monster said, the Zhang Ya you mentioned, and your second uncle, including the little mute, may all have something to do with the mysterious Holy Lord. ”

"But have you ever thought that since that Holy Lord is so powerful, with his ability, it will be easy to destroy your village, but why should he go to such great lengths?"

I opened my eyes and took over the conversation, "Do you want to say it again, because my name is Zhang Zhanning." ”

Long Xiaoman nodded, "Yes, this is the only reasonable explanation, the little mute's unexpected betrayal disrupted his plans, but I think he will definitely not stop there, there are more dangerous encounters waiting for us in the future." ”

At this time, I don't bother to ask what secrets are hidden in my body, because I know that asking is in vain, so I just don't care so much, I don't care if the Holy Lord is not the Holy Lord now, I just want to become strong quickly, and then resurrect the little mute.

Long Xiaoman continued, "The most important thing now is to find the person named Zhang Ya first, no matter what she is, finding her will reveal all the secrets." ”

"Don't mention her, I have a headache when I hear the name Zhang Ya now, from his appearance in the village to the school, I feel that this name is following me all the time." When I heard Long Xiaoman mention Zhang Ya, I felt that my head was big.

Long Xiaoman shook his head and said, "Actually, Zhang Ya only appeared in your village, and Zhang Ya in the school did not exist later. The evil ghost who turned into Li Ming knew who you were looking for, so he deliberately made up Zhang Ya's matter, but in fact, there was no such thing at all, the purpose was just to lead you to the grove to break the formation. ”

"What about the new student who suddenly disappeared and was named Zhang Ya?" I asked.

Long Xiaoman thought about it, and suddenly said loudly, "Oh no, we were all deceived, the principal lied to us!" ”

After finishing speaking, he kicked the accelerator and drove the car at a high speed.

I asked her what was going on, and she said nervously, "The old monster said that she took great pains to lure you here, and that she used the little mute's soul as a threat, which means that she had planned all this a long time ago. ”

"Since this is his layout, it proves that the newly transferred Zhang Ya does not exist at all, maybe she herself dressed up, and the purpose is to bring us here. If he can do all this, it will be natural that we will definitely go back to the headmaster......"

"You mean, the headmaster is also one of theirs?" I was shocked when I heard this, but I didn't expect all this to be calculated.

"Yes, now the only way to do this is to find the principal and force him to tell the truth!"

When I returned to school, it was already dawn, and it was the time for the first class to start, Long Xiaoman and I rushed into the principal's office in a hurry, and as soon as we pushed the door open, Long Xiaoman exclaimed, "Suffer, let's be a step late!" ”

I saw the headmaster sitting in a chair in a very strange shape, with a ball of blood on his chest, his eyes wide open, his pupils dilated, and he was out of breath.

His body was still warm, indicating that not long after he died, I opened his clothes and saw that there was a fist-sized blood hole in his chest, and blood was still bubbling out, as if someone had taken out his heart.

My first thought was to call the police, and this was the third person I had come here to die in front of me.

"Don't be busy just yet!" Long Xiaoman stopped me, and then looked at the corpse seriously, and I followed it carefully.

"Look at his hands!" I saw that one of the principal's palms looked a little abnormal, it stands to reason that the palms of people will naturally release after death, but one of the principal's palms was clenched into a fist, and only one index finger was raised, as if pointing at something.

I followed the direction of his index finger and pulled open a drawer, which contained only a plain white sheet of paper with a strange drawing of simple lines.

"It was like a man standing on top of a mountain, holding a bow." Long Xiaoman looked at the painting and said, frowning slightly, "If this is intentional by the principal, it means that he knows that he may be in trouble, so he left a clue." ”

"But what does that mean?" I couldn't figure out what it was, it was just an ordinary graffiti painting.

Long Xiaoman didn't see anything for a long time, and finally had to put the painting away, and carefully observed it in the room again for a while, before he took out his mobile phone and called the police.

I don't know what Long Xiaoman's background is, I didn't even go to the police station this time, I just let him go after being questioned alone for a while.

This day tossed me tired enough, Long Xiaoman asked me to go eat something with her, I ignored her, after knowing the truth, I was very annoyed by her in my heart, if it wasn't for wanting to resurrect the little mute, I would definitely not want to intersect with such a person.

In the next two days, Long Xiaoman came to me and said that I was very unsafe now, and asked me to go to a safe place with her, but I refused directly, and now I don't trust her as much as before.

When I woke up that day, I felt hungry and the money in my pocket had already run out, so I went downstairs and found an ATM to withdraw 500 yuan.

But when the ATM just spit out the money, I suddenly remembered one thing, I saw that there were only seven yuan left on the little fat man's card a few days ago, how could I still take out the money?

With doubts in my head, I checked the balance again, but was surprised to find that there was only one piece left in the balance!

I hurriedly withdrew the card, and suddenly felt that my hand was wet, and at first glance, it was stained with blood, and the card that had been worn out before had also turned bright red, and the blood was oozing out of the card!

"How do you have this thing!"

A voice suddenly came from behind me, I turned my head to look, and saw Long Xiaoman standing behind me for some time, looking at the blood-soaked card in my hand in surprise.
