Chapter 35: Christmas Eve
It was late at night.
Ye Wuwu stood quietly in front of the window, and the dripping moonlight reflected on the already somewhat torn window paper, giving this dim hut a bit of brilliance.
Despite the thick wall, Ye Wuwu could still clearly perceive everything in the small courtyard.
The woman and the old woman on the sickbed were already asleep at the moment, and the old woman brought her food and medicine halfway, but Ye Wuwu did not meet the other party.
Although the old village chief was staying, he still sighed from time to time, as if he was still worried about things.
Ye Wuwu promised the other party to stay here for one night to see if the witch would appear again.
To build the foundation realm, there is already divine consciousness.
But the scope of the divine consciousness is not large, when Ye Wuwu built the foundation last time, the scope of the divine consciousness was only more than ten meters around his body.
But this time when the foundation was built, the scope of the divine consciousness was several times larger than before, and only in the early stage of the foundation building, there was a divine consciousness with a range of 100 meters.
The village of Daohua is very small.
Most of Daohua Village was shrouded in Ye Wuwu's divine consciousness at this moment.
Ye Wuwu was like this, quietly observing every move in Daohua Village.
There was nothing to do all night, and everything was peaceful.
On the second day, the sun rose as usual, and the old village chief found Ye Wuwu and asked him what he had found.
Ye Wuwu shook his head.
Yesterday was Christmas Eve, and there was nothing unusual except for a small snake that had sneaked into a house to frighten people.
The old village chief's face was a little puzzled, although the witch did not appear last night, and there was nothing in the village, but what he had some slander in his heart was why Ye Wuwu didn't go out all night.
The old village chief didn't sleep well, and he naturally knew that Ye Wuwu hadn't left the room all night.
I didn't even get out of the door, how could I find out?
Isn't this eating for nothing?
But the old village chief quickly denied this idea, as he said before, come to Daohua Village to eat and live for nothing, what do you want?
In the end, the old village chief didn't say anything on the surface, but in his heart, he had already classified Ye Wuwu as the kind of boy who had an empty posture and came to the rivers and lakes for recreation.
Of course, Ye Wuwu would not know what the old village chief was thinking, and even if he knew, at most he would just laugh it off.
He just secretly calculated in his heart that he would have a few days left.
Three days.
Remove the first day and leave a maximum of two days.
It had already taken me a month on the road alone, and according to my estimates, it would take about a month and a half to get to that cave.
After two and a half months, Ye Wuwu even felt that the cave had been opened up, and everything had settled.
It's just that the middle-aged scribe cares, and his junior sister and master are all in that cave, so Ye Wuwu has to go and see what he says.
I haven't traveled far away from the sect for fifteen years, this time is a great opportunity, how could Ye Wuwu let it go.
On the second day and night, the old village chief brought gongs and drums, but every other hour he would go to the village to inspect the village.
Although he didn't know that his actions like this could have a certain effect when he really met a witch.
Ye Wuwu's appearance appeared in his mind, and after a sigh, the old village chief shook his head helplessly.
That guy didn't even get out of the door......
All this was seen by Ye Wuwu, and he also vaguely understood what the old village chief was thinking, but he didn't explain anything.
The next day, it was still Christmas Eve.
On the evening of the third day, Ye Wuwu took the initiative to find the old village chief.
"If it's okay tonight, I'll leave tomorrow morning."
The old village chief's face was not frightened, he nodded slightly, and then said hoarsely.
"Cui Shaoxia, what, how can it be so fast, you are gone, what should you do if the witch comes later."
The old village chief didn't have the slightest fluctuation in his heart, and he didn't have much touch about what Ye Wuwu said about leaving.
Even if the witch really comes, it is estimated that the boy in front of him, who has nothing to do, will not be able to defeat him......
But I thought about it in my heart, but the old village chief said a lot of words.
Ye Wuwu just shook his head and explained that he had a busy schedule and it was inconvenient to stay for a long time.
After Ye Wuwu returned to the room, the white-haired old village chief had a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes, and then walked straight to a room in the courtyard.
"Squeak......
The wooden door was slowly pushed open, and the room was filled with a somewhat dull smell of medicine, and the old village chief had just walked a few steps when a violent cough came from the bed.
It was a woman lying on a sickbed.
The woman was about twenty years old, and her whole body showed a sense of weakness, and it seemed that she had been ill for a long time.
But even so, it is not difficult to see that the facial features are very delicate, and at this moment, the woman saw the old village chief come in, called Abo, and wanted to stand up, but in exchange for a cough.
The old village chief hurriedly helped the woman up, leaned on the head of the bed, and then put the quilt on the other party before sighing softly.
"Xiaoqing, I have seen the foreign man, but he is a son-in-law who is ruined on the outside, and he is not worthy of you, and he can't help you."
The woman who was called Xiaoqing did not change her expression at the moment, but only comforted.
"Uncle, it's okay, Qing'er's disease will get better soon, don't worry about Qing'er anymore."
At this, the woman paused, and after coughing a few times, her face suddenly flushed.
I just don't know if this flush is caused by pathology, or something else?
"Besides...... Qing'er doesn't like that kind of treatment. ”
However, it was obvious that the old village chief did not listen to Xiaoqing's words, but his expression was complicated, and then he couldn't stop sighing again and again.
……
When the sun sets, the evening time passes in the blink of an eye, and the night comes.
The old village chief has already contacted two young men in their prime of life, and the three of them cooperate with each other to patrol the night, and if there is any abnormal movement, they will beat the gongs and drums to inform everyone as soon as possible.
I don't know if the witch will pick the night to attack, but right now, it's the only thing they can do.
The starry night is shrouded, and in the dark night, a small light is lit on the street of Daohua Village.
But it was the old village chief who patrolled the night with the two men.
After tomorrow, the foreign knight will leave, and after the old village chief told the two of them the news, they immediately aroused their dissatisfaction.
"What kind of young man is this, in my opinion, he is as timid as a mouse, what is the matter of staying in the room every day?"
"It's good to come out and patrol the night and make a show, these outsiders are really unreliable."
Listening to the constant complaints in his ears, the old village chief snorted lightly and said hoarsely.
"What are you talking about so much nonsense now, instead of counting on others, it's better to count on yourself, stop arguing, and watch the night seriously, otherwise the witch won't know if she appears."
There was a night breeze blowing, and the sound of mountains and forests was heard.
As soon as the old village chief finished speaking, a word came from his ears.
"Oh~ Are you looking for me?"
The voice is crisp and melodious, and it is faintly a little coquettish.
The old village chief was stunned for a moment, and then looked back a little stiffly.
The eyes are facing each other.
Immediately, the old man's slightly trembling shout was heard.
"Demons, demons, witches!"
