At this moment, it is the time when the sun is in the sky and the sky is bright.

However, with the progress of the "Dancing God" ceremony, in the midst of this messy and disorderly drum, the area near Xunliu Street unconsciously rose gray-black mist, becoming dim and hazy.

It was as if night had fallen early.

After a while, the fainting young woman suddenly reached out to hold the incense case and slowly got up from the ground.

Her movements were extraordinarily stiff, like a patient who had been paralyzed in bed for many years, struggling to get out of bed and walk after recovering from a serious illness.

Her face was bloodless, like a cold corpse.

And her eyes, both the balls and the whites of them, were a dull black, like two deeply sunken holes in pale marble.

"Is this what the old ancestor's soul looks like?"

Seeing this strange scene, the people around him felt a little nervous, and their heartstrings couldn't help but tighten.

The purpose of their "dancing gods" ceremony is to invite back the spirits of their ancestors.

But the young woman's appearance at this time looked more like a man-eating demon.

One child couldn't help but ask, "Daddy, aunt looks so scary......

The man known as "Daddy" was also scared into a cold sweat.

But he took a deep breath, and still pretended to comfort his son calmly: "Well, don't be afraid, it's just that the ancestor re-entered the world with the help of your aunt's body and met with our children and grandchildren." ”

"But, Daddy, the eyes of the old ancestor are so scary, I feel that she wants to eat me......" The child's face was still pale, and he hid behind his father, not daring to look at the young woman next to the incense case.

"Don't be disrespectful to your ancestors." The man held his son's hand tightly.

At this moment, the young woman, possessed by the undead, raised her head and looked around.

"Dog, are you there?" She asked in a cold tone.

Dogs?

Who is Dog?

Everyone present was at a loss.

But they soon learned the answer to that question.

I saw a gray-haired old man in a cotton robe take a step forward and said respectfully in front of the young woman: "Ancestor, I am a dog." ”

The white-haired old man's name is Bai Qingyu, and he is the patriarch of this family - he is extremely senior and prestigious, and no one dares to offend him when he says everything in the clan on weekdays.

But everyone never expected that the patriarch would have a milk name called "Dog Egg"!

So at this moment, in everyone's minds, the patriarch's majestic personality collapsed.

"Is Nan Nan here too?" The young woman asked again in an indifferent tone.

An old lady with a dignified face dressed in a crane also took a step forward, bowed her head and said, "Nan Nan has seen the old ancestor. ”

The old lady is the head mother of the family and the mother-in-law of the possessed young woman.

Don't look at her kind smile and amiable temperament on weekdays, but her family status is very high, not only is she in charge of the family's finances, but sometimes even the patriarch Bai Qingyu is afraid of her.

However, at this moment, in the face of the ancestral soul who was summoned back, she also became a junior with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes.

…………

In this way, in the following period of time, the young woman called out all the names of the old people in the clan.

The old people who are respected on weekdays all regard themselves as juniors in front of her, and they behave respectfully.

At the same time, the fear in everyone's hearts gradually dissipated—

Since the "young woman" can easily call out the little-known milk names of the old people in the clan, this obviously proves that what is possessed by the young woman is indeed the soul of the old ancestor, not some evil spirit.

Thinking of this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

One after another, they walked up to the "young woman", bowed to her, and asked her questions.

The "young woman" replied one by one in a hoarse and indifferent voice.

What a scene of harmony and happiness between grandparents and grandchildren!

At the same time, everyone was surprised to find that even if they were faced with the most difficult questions, the "young woman" could easily answer them and say the answers they wanted to know most.

"Is this the wisdom of the ancestors?" They couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Only the pale child, still curled up behind his father, did not dare to step forward to meet the "old ancestor".

He always felt that the "old ancestor" looked at everyone's eyes, as if he was looking at a table full of delicacies.

…………

A few minutes later, something changed.

The "young woman" suddenly noticed the little boy's eyes full of fear and suspicion.

So she stretched out her hand to the boy and said in a hoarse voice, "He is disrespectful to me." ”

The little boy's father immediately lowered his head and said respectfully: "The child is not sensible, I hope the ancestors will understand." ”

"Let him come to me." "The young woman" said with a blank face.

The little boy shuddered, and took a few steps back.

The "young woman" finally had a faint anger on her face.

She stiffened her hands up.

From this moment on, her arms began to grow longer, from flesh and blood to plant branches, and on the branches grew layers of green leaves, like two dark green vipers, extending towards the little boy's neck.

At her feet, staggered roots quickly grew, piercing the solid bluestone pavement, like countless wriggling earthworms, trying to entangle the little boy's feet.

And on her pale cheeks, on the tip of her nose, in her eyes, and in her ears, white petals grew, and clusters of delicate pale yellow stamens grew in the middle of the petals.

Each little white flower is like a small mouth.

The petals are the lips, the stamens are the teeth, and the nectar is salivation.

Faintly, everyone seemed to be able to hear these open little mouths wailing in unison.

"Hungry ......"

"She's not an ancestor!" Someone shouted in horror, "She's a youkai!" ”

But now that I have discovered the abnormality, it is obviously too late.

The little boy had been completely entangled in the branches, and was immediately carried into the air, and it seemed that he was about to become a meal in the belly of the dryad.

The boy's father staggered forward, trying to stop the dryad from eating his son, but a branch pierced through his shoulder, and blood gushed down.

There is no power to resist.

Everyone present instantly fell into despair.

This is the current situation of mortals in front of demons and monsters.

It's like a fish facing a sword, and a lamb meets a wolf.

…………

Meanwhile.

At the moment when the dryad appeared as the prototype, Gu Xu used his powerful divine sense perception to catch a sudden burst of gloomy aura in the distance.

It was as if in the dark night when I couldn't see my fingers, and suddenly a light was lit up to guide the way.

"I know where the ghost is," he said to Shi Xiaohan beside him, "Come with me." ”

After saying that, he used the "Meteor Walking the Moon" body method he had just learned recently, and disappeared in an instant.

Shi Xiaohan looked at the afterimage he left behind and was stunned for a second.

"Gu Xu, when did he become so fast?"
