Chapter 100: Forbidden Nightmare 7 (Strange Mermaid Statue)
At that time, she didn't understand her senior sister's feeling of homesickness, because she didn't miss the Federation Planet.
Thinking about it now, maybe my senior sister's nostalgia for her hometown at that time is the same as her nostalgia for her teacher now.
Josh looked at the food on the table, sighed faintly, and was about to lift the chopsticks, when the corner of his eye suddenly swept to the bottom of the table, and a hideous and terrifying hand quietly stretched out.
She paused with the chopsticks, and when she looked at them again, the thing was gone again.
Josh wasn't in the mood to eat, so he scribbled two bites and lay back on the bed.
Just as she was drowsy, she suddenly felt someone tap her on the foot.
Josh snorted in displeasure, retracted his feet, rolled over and continued to sleep.
There was a ticking sound in my ears.
The strong smell of blood came.
Josh frowned slightly, opened his eyes suddenly, and met a pair of bloody eyes.
When the other party saw her suddenly open her eyes, he was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened angrily and he pounced.
Josh quickly rolled over and got out of bed.
The female ghost chased after her.
Josh took out a talisman from his pocket and pressed it hard against the female ghost who pounced on her, and the female ghost instantly did not move, turning into a lifeless humanoid lantern.
It's not very smart, either.
She originally thought that she had provoked her during the day, and knew that she was not an easy person to deal with, and these things should be evasive.
In the system, Yu Ze sent a message: [Did you find anything? γ
Josh took a picture of a paper lantern and sent it over: [Only one lantern that doesn't look very smart. What about you? γ
Yu Ze: [I didn't find anything, but I think the statue of the ancestral hall is strange.] γ
Josh thought for a moment: [Go and see it at night? γ
Yu Ze: [Okay, I have the key.] γ
Josh avoided the crowd and pushed open the window at the back of the room and jumped out.
The moment she stepped out of the room, countless ghosts poured out of the ground and pounced on her.
Josh had an exorcism charm in her hand, and those things looked at her with fear, not daring to pounce.
She bypassed the streetlights in the front yard and passed the side path.
The ghosts followed, as if trying to stop her from moving on.
The path was pitch black, and the ghosts on both sides were flowing mire, rushing forward and onto her feet.
Countless blood-drenched ghost hands tried to grab her ankles, and the creepy touch drilled into her feet in bursts.
Josh ignored the stuff and kept walking.
In order to avoid the women patrolling outside, she had to huddle in the grass and wait for them to leave.
Suddenly, the ghost behind her pushed her hard.
Josh hurriedly grabbed the branch next to him to stabilize his body.
But the branches inevitably swayed.
"Who's there!" The nearest woman shouted warily and came this way.
Josh turned his head to glare at the ghost behind him.
The ghost covered his mouth and snorted sharply, with a bit of empty weirdness, which made people's hairs stand on end.
Seeing that people not far away were approaching.
Josh grabbed the nearby ghost and cast a spell.
The ghost screamed and turned into a humanoid lantern.
She threw the lantern out.
As soon as the woman approached, she saw a lantern rolling out of the grass.
A smiling saint was painted on the lantern's face, and blood flowed out slowly.
The woman screamed, as if she had seen a ghost, fell to the ground in fright, and hurriedly retreated.
When the woman who followed saw this, her face changed instantly, and she hurriedly pulled her companion away.
The two of them were frightened for a while, and after seeing that the humanoid lantern did not move, they calmed down a little.
"Maybe the wind is blowing, let's not scare ourselves."
"It's really...... Behold, this lantern is the face of a saint! You say, could the rumors be true that the saint has come back for revenge? β
"Shhhh Don't talk nonsense, how is it possible? Let's not scare ourselves, this lantern will be picked up by someone later, and handed it to Aunt Yuexi. β
"Good ......"
Josh in the grass frowned slightly, what does it mean that the holy woman came back to take revenge?
It is estimated that it is related to the main quest.
It's not that simple.
She placed a strand of spider silk on one of the women.
I saw a woman in the distance worried: "Sister, the candidate priestesses of the last session are all dead, this is a bad omen in itself, I'm afraid ......"
"Don't be afraid, these things have nothing to do with us, even if they are here to take revenge, then there is a debtor and a debtor......" She lowered her voice: "If you want to take revenge, you are looking for our current saint, and it is not us who robbed her of the position of saint." β
"That's what I said, but I'm still scared ......"
"Don't be afraid, it's really fine, if you're really scared, go and talk to Aunt Yuexi, and see if she can stop your night shift in the future."
Josh glanced at the time, and saw that it was almost there, and no matter how much he listened, he couldn't hear anything famous, so he turned around and walked in the direction of the ancestral hall.
Yu Ze happened to have just arrived.
The two exchanged messages.
Yu Ze narrowed his eyes: "Could it be a clichΓ© bloody copy of the dog vying for the position of the Holy Maiden?" β
Josh: "I think this side quest of the tide crisis must have something to do with the main story, and the key to solving the tide problem is this sea god, and maybe there is also a connection between the saint and the sea god." β
Yu Ze nodded, "Let's go in and have a look." β
There are no people living in the ancestral hall at night.
Yu Ze took the key and opened the door on the side of the ancestral hall, and the two sneaked in.
I don't know why, as soon as Josh entered the door, he inexplicably felt a chill, and there was a yin qi on his back that went straight to his head.
She shook the goosebumps off her body.
"You're finally here." An empty voice sounded in the ancestral hall.
Josh inexplicably heard some cold killing intent from it.
She tensed her body instantly: "Who! β
Yu Ze looked at her inexplicably: "What?" β
Josh glanced around vigilantly, "Didn't you hear the voice just now?" β
Yu Ze listened carefully, "I heard it, your heart is beating so fast, are you so nervous with me?" Don't be in early love. β
Josh: "......"
The eerie feeling of horror is swept away.
She just wanted to punch this man twice.
The two entered the ancestral hall.
The ancestral hall is divided into three parts: left, middle and right.
On the right is the place where the saint conducts daily affairs and presides over the affairs of the clan.
In the middle is a statue of the mermaid and the god of the sea.
On the left are various miscellaneous items for offering incense, as well as some props used for sacrifices.
The two touched the mermaid statue in the middle.
I don't know if it's Josh's delusion, but I always feel that the idol is staring at her.
But when she looked up at the idol, the mermaid on the idol just lowered her eyebrows quietly, with a quiet and peaceful expression.
Both of them have good eyesight, and they can barely see the situation inside the ancestral hall by relying on the moonlight refracted from the outside.
Josh stared at the idol and suddenly felt a little dizzy, as if he was about to be sucked into it.
She shook her head and looked at Yu Ze: "Do you feel that something is wrong with the statue?" β
