I lost my strength and lay on the ground clutching my stomach and groaning. Yu Xin glanced at me, and then at the second brother.

"Giggles, are you distressed?" Yu Xin looked at my second brother and took the initiative to put her neck on the blade of the second brother.

I saw her body gradually passing through the blade, and the blade that the ghost should not have been able to pass was actually ineffective against her! The second brother looked at the woman in shock.

"You brothers...... It's fun. ”

"It's so interesting to tease you two, I hook my little thumb, you have to do everything you can to resist......"

"I'm sorry, just now, this copper sword, which was originally a little useful, turned into broken copper."

"Arwen, run!" The second brother looked at the clean and shiny bronze sword in his hand and yelled at me.

"Nope! Elder brother! ”

I don't know when, my brother's blood dripping for sacrifice was actually wiped clean by Yu Xin I don't know how to use it!

At this time, it occurred to me that there was still cinnabar prepared today under the bed!

I rolled to the side of the bed, picked up the cinnabar, and threw it at Yu Xin. Yu Xin was caught off guard and hurriedly dodged cinnabar.

"Brother, let's go together!"

"You go first, twenty miles south of the city, go pick up Dad! If you can't find it, keep going! "The second brother tried to push me out.

I couldn't be moved for a while. No! How can this be! My second brother has protected me for so many years, and I must not abandon him now!

"No, brother, we have to live together, and we have to die together!"

"You're such a fool!"

The second brother looked at me hatefully, and he couldn't care about me anymore.

He kicked Yu Xin in the chest, kicking her flying. The second brother quickly cut the blade through his palm, and the tip of the knife immediately dipped some cinnabar on the ground. With his sword in hand, he stabbed the ground until the woman hit the wall.

The bronze sword pierced through the woman's palm and pinned it to the wall.

"Ahh

I saw her fly out of the room in a flash.

From afar, I heard her laugh maniacally, "It's still you, something!" ”

The second brother withdrew the bronze sword, and his face was a little solemn. After a long time, he covered his stomach, turned to look at me, and said, "Are you okay?" ”

I shook my head and struggled to get up from the ground, and my second brother held me up. I touched my face - there was a sticky wetting sensation.

I brought my hand to my eyes—a bright red patch.

It's blood.

I wiped the blood off my face and said, "Thank you, second brother." ”

"Don't say thank you, I'm your brother."

"Brother...... Your hurt ......"

I looked at his injured abdomen and shoulder, and I saw that my second brother's hand covering his abdomen was also trembling slightly.

"It's fine."

The second brother turned his back and left me with a tall back.

I don't understand my second brother, I haven't understood it since I was a child. He is gentle with everyone, but he is a little unkind, he follows the rules in everything, and even sometimes he is a little mean and cowardly.

I don't understand him, I feel like he's not what he seems.

He didn't have a big brother favoring me. However, he never made me feel helpless when it came to critical matters.

"Don't worry, Arwen, don't you have some ointment in your room? Just take some for me, and the Yin Qi accumulated by these injuries is heavy. I'll give you a transformation in a while, saving you the yang energy of your body. ”

"Eh, okay." The second brother's voice interrupted my thoughts, and I hurriedly took out some ointment from the cabinet and handed it to the second brother.

The second brother bit the gauze, picked out some ointment from the small brown bottle, and said softly: "This matter is too strange. ”

"Brother...... I lied to you, that female ghost was not beaten away by me. "I was stunned, thinking that my brother said that I beat the female ghost to the ground, and the female ghost came back.

"I know...... Know it from the beginning. ”

"Huh? Second brother, how do you know? ”

The second brother smiled and did not speak. He sprinkled the white powder on the wound, then bit his lip and frowned.

"Dad hasn't come back yet. The paperwork has been expedited and there is no response. ”

"Arwen, I'm afraid something is going to happen tonight."

"Second brother, you mean...... She's still there? Will you come again tonight? ”

"Yes, look at her like that, she's here to ask for her life. Will you give up? ”

"This ...... What to do? You just told me to pick up my father twenty miles south of the city, I'll go now, is it too late? ”

"I just called you to distract you, and I held it up alone. When you bring your father back, the ghost who occupies Yu Xin's body will definitely be caught. ”

The second brother glanced at me helplessly and continued: "Now that Yu Xin is out, you go out to die?" “

"Hey...... Hey...... Brother......" I laughed.

The second brother glanced at me, pinched his fingers and said, "Dad should be almost there, but the hexagram shows the little murderer, and it is estimated that something is delayed, but this meeting should have been resolved." ”

"That's great, wait for Daddy to come back! That's it! ”

"You...... Let's think about how to explain it to Dad!"

The second brother wrapped the gauze and patted his side, "Awen, don't turn around, my eyes are all spent." Let's take a break! In case the female ghost comes, you still have the strength to escape. ”

"Brother! How could it be! I'm sure one person can handle both. ”

"......" The second brother glanced at me and didn't speak.

I knew that I was wrong, so I found a corner of the room and sat down slowly against the wall.

I turned my back and closed my eyes, and all that came to my mind was Yu Xin's terrifying face—her hideous expression, her bleeding features, and even her miserable screams hovering in my ears. I shuddered, my head felt dizzy, and I rubbed my temples.

"Second brother?"

"Huh?"

"You say, if Yu Xin returns tonight, will we die tonight?"

The second brother didn't answer me, I opened my eyes and saw the candle wick dancing on the wall.

“…… Elder brother? ”

"What else do you have in your room?"

"A bag of cinnabar, a stack of unpainted yellow rune paper......" I looked at the bronze mirror that fell to the ground, "a copper mirror, a copper coin ......"

"Where's the ghost whip?"

I hesitated for a moment and said, "...... At...... Yes, definitely. ”

"That's fine. Let's rest, wait for the fifth watch, and my father should arrive. ”

I felt a little weak, so I climbed straight into the bed and wrapped the quilt in front of the wall, "Brother, I'm sleeping." ”

"Where's the yellow rune paper?"

"What's wrong, brother?"

"You were beaten stupid, what should I do if Yu Xin comes back?"
