Chapter 16: The Shadow Outside the Window
I know what he means?
He asked me to cut off the root of my relationship with Pei Xinyun, not only did I not do this, but I got closer to Pei Xinyun.
The meaning of the ancient style tells me that if I anger Cuigu, the consequences will be very serious.
Gu Feng said again: "Aside from everything else, you and Cuigu are already husband and wife, husband and wife should be responsible for each other, stay and love each other, and if they go the other way, the end must be miserable." ”
I'm a little upset, warn me? Threaten me? I don't believe this fool could have killed me?
What kind of couple? What is a blind date and love? If my grandfather hadn't forced me, could I have married her?
But I still didn't say it, after all, the ancient style is also well-intentioned.
Seeing that there was displeasure on my face, Gu Feng sighed.
"That's it, there are some things that you only know the seriousness of the consequences when you have experienced them, I won't say more, I just hope that you will do it yourself, don't disappoint Aunt Cui, and don't disappoint your grandfather."
"If you want me to say...... You'd better have a round house with Cuigu as soon as possible, so that nothing goes wrong. ”
I didn't answer, Roundhouse? To put it lightly, this fool is not your daughter-in-law, let you try to have a round room with her? Can you get your mouth shut?
"Also, I tell you one more thing, the drum on your body must not be seen by anyone, otherwise your identity will be revealed and you will be killed."
I asked, "Grandpa Gu, my grandfather said that this is the Soul Suppression Drum, but what is the Soul Suppression Drum?" Isn't it amazing? I only knocked it last night, and it shook the heavens and the earth, directly shaking the evil in the haunted mansion and those kobolds. ”
Gu Feng was taken aback.
"Have you beaten this drum? How many knocks? ”
"Twice, once in my hometown, my grandfather asked me to knock it, and once last night, in the haunted house."
"Although the drum is powerful, you must not beat it unless it is absolutely necessary, because if you beat the drum more than three times, you must become a soul calmer, and your grandfather's efforts will be in vain."
Yes? And this one?
"Okay, you guys go back, you'd better stay in the haunted house these days, don't go out, and I'll have someone deliver food to your door when it's time for dinner."
Gu Feng's face was a little unsightly, as if he was worried about something?
I had no choice but to lead Aunt Cui back to the haunted mansion.
When the sun shines during the day, the haunted house is not as gloomy as last night, it is an ordinary deserted house.
I turned around twice in it, it was really big enough, a row of more than a dozen houses, two large courtyards in front and back, and the backyard was obviously a garden, and you could see the traces of pavilions and rockeries.
There is also an abandoned ancient well, and next to the ancient well is a dry artificial lake.
In Jinling, a place where every inch of land is valuable, if this house is not haunted, it is estimated that it is worth a lot.
Cui Gu has been following me, and she follows me wherever I go, which makes me very annoying.
I asked her not to follow me, but she pouted aggrievedly.
"Little husband, bad, bad ......"
"Yes, I'm bad, so why are you still marrying me? Hey, come on, tell me, are you a fool or not? Will a fool still be jealous? Strange thing, also, your eyes will sparkle, and when you shine, you can make the ghosts of lonely souls and wild ghosts fly away. ”
"Who are you? Why did my grandfather have to let me marry you? The old head also said, one day you will show your true face, come and come, you show me your true face. ”
Cui Gu rolled her eyelids and looked at me, her mouth was humming, and she didn't know what she was muttering.
Although grandpa and Gu Feng hinted at me in and out of their words, Cuigu's identity is not simple, but how is it not simple, you can explain it to me clearly, it is really unpleasant to be so confused.
I don't know if it was because of the beating of the soul drum last night, the yin qi in the entire ghost house dispersed a lot, and until the evening, I didn't see anything dirty.
The kobolds didn't reappear after two o'clock in the morning.
In the evening, Gu Feng had people bring food, and after eating, Cuigu fell asleep.
I couldn't sleep, thinking about things all the time.
Suddenly there was a ringing bell, and the phone rang.
When I saw it, it turned out to be a message from Pei Xinyun.
"Did you sleep?"
Just three words immediately made my heart boil.
This is the charm of the goddess, this is the charm of love.
I hurriedly replied: "No, haven't you slept yet?" ”
"I'm with my mom." Pei Xinyun replied.
"Li Tianqi, I'm going to officially go to the ghost house for live broadcast tomorrow night, I'm a little nervous."
I was stunned.
"Isn't it three days later?"
"After the live broadcast preview was issued, tens of thousands of people made reservations for the live broadcast, and the company said that it would strike while the iron was hot and start live broadcasting tomorrow night."
"Also...... My mother's side can't be delayed any longer, and the live broadcast will get the money for my mother's treatment as soon as possible. ”
I hurriedly asked, "What kind of illness does Auntie have?" ”
Pei Xinyun didn't answer me, but sent a voice message.
"Li Tianqi, you must help me tomorrow."
"Don't worry, I'm here." I replied.
Pei Xinyun was in trouble, I decided to help her without thinking about it, who made her my goddess?
"Then I'll be relieved, thank you, rest early."
I said goodnight to each other with the goddess, and my heart was sweet, damn, this is what it feels like to be in love.
Love is beautiful and sacred, and it is pleasant.
If you have to marry someone you don't love in order to resolve the disaster, it is a waste of the two sacred words of love.
I glanced at Aunt Cui, who was sleeping soundly, and sighed, what should I do?
What kind of calamity is it? Can't I resolve it myself? Why do you have to ruin my life's happiness and marry a fool to resolve it?
No, I need to figure out what this catastrophe is.
Isn't it just that if you take this drum, you have to be a soul calmer? But what the hell is a soul towner?
I didn't feel sleepy at all, and took out the drum from the small bag around my waist to take a closer look.
Twelve animals such as foxes, weasels, hedgehogs, snakes, rats, dogs, etc., are engraved on it.
Isn't this the animal fairy family of folklore? What kind of yellow and white willow gray, and out of the horse fairy or something, I've heard of some of them.
But what does this animal fairy family mean when engraved on this drum?
There are also those big-headed dolls with goldfish carved on the bottom of the valley.
Those animal fairies are nothing, it's just the big-headed dolls, the more I look at them, the more terrifying I feel, I always feel that they are smiling at me, which makes my heart tremble.
Tomorrow the goddess will go to the house to broadcast live, although the soul drum is beaten, the dirty things here should not dare to come out, but what if there are other powerful things? This drum is my only hope.
But the old head said that the drum should not be beaten more than three times, otherwise it will ......
As soon as I thought about it, I suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at me.
I jerked my head up at the window, and there seemed to be a dark shadow flashing outside.
"Who?" I was startled and quickly put the drum back into my baggage.
