The creaking sound sounded like an animal biting something, and my scalp tingled when I heard it.

Hearing the movement, Wei Lili and Mingyuan also walked out of their respective rooms and stared at the gate of the courtyard.

Aunt Li frowned and said to me, "There is a big corpse outside the courtyard, I'm afraid they have already discovered you." ”

Half-section!

I didn't expect the mystery man to actually do something to me tonight, and I found it.

"Don't worry, they won't be able to break through the Seven Stars Yin Array." Seeing that my face was nervous, Aunt Li comforted me.

I nodded, I had heard the principal say before that even Yin Si couldn't break through this formation, and the half of the tank would definitely not be able to enter, but I still felt very uneasy.

I asked her in confusion: "Aunt Li, do you know why these half-cylinders are looking for me?" ”

Aunt Li shook her head, "I don't know about this. ”

"Mom, it seems that there are only four half-cylinders out there, we can destroy them." Wei Lili said.

"No, with your deeds, you can't destroy them, and I can't make a move, and besides, these things are just here to tempt, don't pay attention to them." Aunt Li stopped Wei Lili and said.

"But—" Wei Lili stopped talking, and looked at me.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but from Wei Lili's eyes, I seem to see a hint of worry.

As soon as Aunt Li's words fell, the creaking sound outside stopped.

Seeing this, Aunt Li waved her hand and asked us all to go back to the room to rest, half of the tank could not appear during the day, and wait for dawn to go outside to see the situation.

When I went back to the room, Aunt Li called out to me and Xiaoyu, and said to me apologetically: "Qiao Jue, it seems that I am a little anxious, and the jade girl can't have sex with you for the time being, but you have to remember that from now on, she will be your wife, no matter what happens in the future, you can't let her down." ”

I heard that Aunt Li's words had a deep meaning, but I had long regarded Xiaoyu as my wife, glanced at Xiaoyu who was blushing next to me, and nodded seriously immediately: "Don't worry, Aunt Li, I won't lose Xiaoyu." ”

Aunt Li nodded at me with satisfaction after listening to my words, "Okay, just wait for your master to come in peace for the next two days, don't think about other things, here, don't talk about half a cylinder, even if the mysterious person comes in person, it won't hurt you." ”

To be honest, I wanted to face the mysterious man more than I was afraid, and ask him what he wanted to do to me, why he was eyeing me, and whether he had taken my mother away.

After finishing speaking, Aunt Li asked Xiaoyu to push her to the wing room so that I could rest in peace.

Back in the back room of the new house, I didn't feel sleepy, and simply walked back and forth in the room.

Looking at the familiar red gauze tent and dresser in the room, I always felt that I knew Xiao Xia who was enshrined.

"Qiao Jue, did you sleep?"

At this time, Mingyuan knocked on the door.

The knock on the door interrupted my thoughts, and when I heard that it was Mingyuan, it just so happened that I wanted to ask him about Xiao Xia.

I hurriedly went and opened the door, "What, you can't sleep either?" ”

Mingyuan nodded, and then said to me, "Qiao Jue, I'm worried about Xiao Yan. ”

I sighed, I didn't want to hurry to the depths of the tomb to find clues to my mother.

"By the way, I heard the principal call Aunt Li earlier, what's going on with them?" I suddenly thought of Aunt Li's strange attitude towards the principal during the day, and asked Mingyuan.

Mingyuan was stunned, "I don't know very well, it's the first time I've seen Aunt Li." ”

I was puzzled to think that the principal called Aunt Li Senior Sister, it is very likely that they are from the same family, and Wei Lili and Mingyuan don't know the identity of each other's parents, why do they hide it from their juniors?

Needless to say, Mingyuan definitely didn't know about Xiao Xia either.

Also, I remember the principal once said that the grievances of the previous generation have affected the younger generations.

Faintly, I seemed to have grasped something, but I couldn't find the key point.

Maybe this point is the connection between me, Mingyuan, Wei Lili, Xiaoyu and Xiao Xia in the portrait.

Afterwards, Mingyuan chatted with me for a while, and when he saw that it was not early, he went back to his room to sleep.

After Mingyuan left, I also lay down on the bed, thinking about the relationship between the five of us over and over again, and finally, I focused on Xiao Xia.

During the day, Aunt Li said that she would tell me about Xiao Xia later, and after I entered the door, Aunt Li asked me to incense Xiao Xia's portrait first, and said that it should be.

This shows that Xiao Xia and I must have known each other, otherwise I wouldn't have felt that way.

It's just that I don't understand how I can suddenly feel sad.

Thinking about this, I fell asleep unconsciously.

In the middle of the night, I was awakened by a burst of urine, and I hurriedly lifted the quilt and went to the thatched house in the courtyard.

When I came back, I was about to go back to sleep, when I suddenly realized that something was wrong.

If I'm not mistaken, before I went to bed, I didn't cover the quilt at all, but just now, I lifted the quilt and went out.

"Xiaoyu, is that you?"

I took the candle and lit it in the room and asked in a whisper.

"It's me, I just saw that you didn't cover the quilt, so I helped you pull it up."

Xiaoyu's voice came from outside.

I breathed a sigh of relief and asked her what she was doing outside, let's come to the back room.

Xiao Yu hurriedly replied: "No... No, I came here secretly, and it was bad if Lily found out, so I went to find Lily. ”

I'm a little speechless, since Xiaoyu came here, she has returned to her previous delicate and shy personality.

I don't want that naughty ghost to play tricks on me and let me carry her back at all.

Xiao Yu seemed to be very nervous, and after saying this, she left with a gust of wind, and the outhouse was quiet again.

I had to lie back in bed and continue to sleep.

After dawn, I got up early, and I was still thinking about the half-cut tank last night, and I had to go outside to take a look.

When I went out of the room, I found that Aunt Li and they happened to come out of the room.

Mingyuan and I opened the gate in the yard, looked outside, there was nothing abnormal, I was not at ease, and looked around again, but still did not find any traces left.

Aunt Li smiled lightly and said, "Okay, go back and prepare for breakfast, it's okay." ”

After breakfast, I quietly found Xiaoyu: "How is it?" You didn't come out last night when Wei Lili found out. ”

Xiaoyu was stunned, "Brother Qiao Jue, what are you talking about?" ”

I said, didn't you help me cover the quilt in the middle of the night last night?

Xiaoyu said strangely: "Last night, Lily and I talked until dawn before resting, and I didn't help you cover the quilt." ”

I smiled and said, "Okay, do you want to joke with me again?" ”

However, Xiaoyu said very seriously: "Brother Qiao Jue, what I said is true, I don't believe you to ask Lily." ”

My smile immediately froze, wasn't the person last night Xiaoyu?!

Seeing that my expression was wrong, Xiaoyu asked me what was wrong, and I immediately told me what happened last night.

"The voice you heard is really Xiaoyu?" At this time, Wei Lili pushed Aunt Li over, and after hearing my words, Aunt Li asked.

I nodded, I can't get Xiaoyu's voice wrong, in the courtyard, there are other ghosts?

Aunt Li said that it was impossible, it was impossible for a ghost to break through the Seven Stars Absolute Yin Array.

I believe it, too, but someone really covered me with a quilt last night!

Aunt Li waved her hand and said to me, "Okay, you just take it as a dream, don't think about it anymore." ”

"I..." I opened my mouth, but before the words could be spoken, Wei Lili pushed Aunt Li away.

It's definitely not a dream, and I wouldn't have heard it wrong.

Could it be that Xiaoyu was embarrassed to admit it in front of them?

However, after Wei Lili's mother and daughter left, I asked Xiaoyu again, and she still told me seriously that she really didn't look for me.

I felt a sigh in my heart, and it wasn't until this time that I thought that that person was really not Xiaoyu!

Suddenly!

I think about when I was in our village, there was a guy who pretended to be a mother and deceived me that night!

Last night's events were exactly the same as that time!

But there is a seven-star Yin Array in the courtyard, and it is impossible for ghosts and monsters to come in.

Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment, and then whispered: "Brother Qiao Jue, don't be nervous, it may be that Lily is secretly using a spell to trick you, don't worry." ”

I nodded, there is also this possibility, but who was the guy who pretended to be a mother in the first place? Besides, Wei Lili doesn't seem to be the kind of person who can joke.

"Didi!"

However, at this moment, the horn of a car horn suddenly sounded outside the door.

It's the principal.

I saw the principal enter the courtyard in a panic, still holding a newspaper in his hand.

Aunt Li and the others heard the movement, came out of the house, and asked, "Why are you here again?" ”

The principal was sweating, and he didn't care about wiping it, so he said, "Senior sister, something is wrong!" ”

Aunt Li frowned, "What's the matter?" ”

The principal handed the newspaper in his hand to Aunt Li, who took it and looked at it, and her face changed suddenly: "Twenty people died overnight!" Don't...? ”

The headmaster nodded solemnly.

I hurriedly asked what was wrong? Even Aunt Li's face changed.

Aunt Li handed me the newspaper, and I took it and read it, and the headline on it was: Last night, a total of 20 people in the city were mysteriously murdered, all the heads were missing, and the bodies also mysteriously disappeared shortly after.

I was shocked and asked Aunt Li, "Is this also related to the half-cylinder?" ”

Aunt Li nodded at me, and then asked, "Did you find eleven half-jars in the tomb?" ”

I nodded.

Aunt Li and the principal glanced at each other, and then said, "He wants to refine that kind of thing!" ”

The principal nodded and said nervously, "Yes, he must have found a way to harm Qiao Jue because of this." ”

I was puzzled, I couldn't understand what Aunt Li and the principal said, but I subconsciously felt that something big was going to happen.
