The Exorcist

what to do?

Something strange came in, but it seemed like she was the only one in the world who knew about it, while the Miao girl was still blocking the door, neither speaking nor moving, just staring at Xiaoxia and not letting her leave!

"Ruan Zhan! Wanli!" She bravely called out again, but there was still no response.

Boom--Boom--Boom--

The chaotic but regular sound of jumping footsteps came, indicating that the strange group of people was entering the store.

You have to rely on yourself!

This realization gave Xiaoxia the courage to slowly sit on the edge of the bed. She timidly glanced in the direction of the door, trying to find an opportunity to squeeze past the young girl, but other than that, she couldn't think of any other way!

She clutched the amulet on her chest and groped unconsciously on the ground with her feet, looking for her shoes.

She touched her shoes, but they were kicked aside, so she used her feet to hook them, still looking in the direction of Miao Nu. Once, twice, three times, why are they getting farther and farther away? It's reached the point where she can't reach it!

"Are you looking for this? Guest!" A voice suddenly came from her feet.

Xiaoxia took a breath and saw a black figure squatting on both sides of her, each holding one of her shoes! I don’t know when it appeared.

"Ami, Ah Dong, she sleeps in my bed!" Miao Nu, who had been standing still, suddenly screamed and flew over angrily.

Xiaoxia was so horrified that she quickly shrank back to the corner of the bed, looking at the three uninvited guests in horror.

The two squatting black figures stood up under Xiaoxiadi's gaze, as if they were arching out of the soil underground. They slowly moved in front of Xiaoxia, lined up with the Miao girl, and looked down at Xiaoxia.

Two middle-aged men, one male and one female, both dressed as Miao people, dark, thin, old and ugly, were smiling at Xiao Xia with stiff and strange expressions. His eyes were fixed on Xiao Xia, but his eyes drifted behind Xiao Xia, making Xiao Xia feel that her whole back was numb.

Is there something behind her?

"Ah Hua, don't talk to the guests like that!" the man said, "you have to entertain the guests. She Ami——"

Before he could finish his instructions, the woman on the left took out a tray from nowhere and handed it to Xiao Xia like a force. There is a dark thing on the tray, which looks like a rice cake, but it has already become moldy and smelly. The big black ants unique to the mountains and forests are shuttled back and forth on the rice cake!

"Eat!" she said, the tray almost hitting Xiaoxia's nose.

Instinctively, Xiaoxia waved her hand, and the tray fell out with a bang, hitting the corner of the room with an earth-shattering sound! It turned out to be tangible and qualitative, and so was the hand Xiao Xia touched without comment!

And with this sound, Xiaoxia and the three Miao ghosts suddenly became silent. Xiao Xia was frightened, but the three Miao ghosts looked offended and stared at Xiao Xia fiercely!

"Spoil the food, sinners! Sinners!" The three men shouted in unison and lowered their heads!

Xiaoxia felt a deep-seated coldness rushing towards her face, along with the dampness of the earth, making her unable to breathe! I could only lean against the bamboo wall, hold the amulet tightly, and just when I was about to shout, "Namo Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva," I heard two voices sounding at the same time.

Squeak - jingle bell -

Then came the sound of footsteps, steadily oppressing people's hearing. It was the weird man in the hat leading the bunch of weird things up the stairs! And gradually walked through to the door of the small summer room.

Step by step--

The door opened silently, and the weird man stood at the door. The three Miao ghosts automatically opened a gap so that the man could see Xiaoxia.

The moonlight shines brightly on that person. Only then did Xiaoxia realize that the clothes he was wearing were not white cloth, but coir raincoats. The coir raincoat was covered with water drops, but they did not fall down. It looked silvery white in the moonlight.

The bamboo hat on his head was pressed very low. Xiaoxia's eyes widened and she tried desperately to see his face, but she felt that there was nothing under the bamboo hat, just darkness that could not be solved.

He walked over, not forgetting to shake the copper bell in his hand. The "person" behind him, who looked like a string of crabs, also jumped in. For a moment, the small room was crowded, but there was only Xiaoxia. The sound of people breathing in terror!

"She sleeps in my bed!" Miao Nu shouted again, repeating the same sentence over and over again, but this time it sounded like she was complaining.

The man came over and leaned over to look at Xiaoxia. So close, Xiaoxia still didn't see his face!

He didn't say anything, just faced Xiao Xia face to face, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Xiao Xia's neck, and threw her out of the window before she could struggle!

Xiaoxia fell heavily to the ground, but she didn't feel much pain, just a shock, and the surrounding environment was not right. She heard footsteps coming from her confusion, and then a pair of men's feet appeared in front of her. Then the man picked her up and put her back on the bed.

"What nightmare did you have? Did you fall off the bed?" Ruan Zhan's gentle voice came.

how? Is it a dream? No wonder Ruan Zhan didn't come to save her, it turned out to be a dream! But is it really a dream? !

Xiao Xia choked up and recounted everything that happened just now.

Ruan Zhan frowned upon hearing this.

This dream is too weird. If it is really a dream, Xiaoxia needs to see a psychiatrist, because if you always have nightmares like this, there must be something wrong with your psychology. However, if there is some capable person plotting behind the scenes, it is not impossible to involve Xiao Xia in some illusion. He has already seen the dream killing technique.

They are in the light, and the other side is in the dark. Every time they have to stand up from the disadvantage, it is difficult, but they must do it. Like this time, he knew that approaching the truth was equivalent to treating himself as a rake, but he had to do it. He didn't care about Guan Zheng's death, but Guan Zheng's death also implicated 'Yang Muyou' and Huang Boheng. He just wanted to find out the origin of 'Yang Muyou', and he felt strongly that it must be related to Na Man, and this Related to deep mountains and river valleys.

"Have you ever inquired about the situation in this store?" Xiao Xia had completely woken up from the nightmare, but she still pretended to be scared and did not come out of Ruan Zhan's arms. She kept leaning on him, "Is there a couple with a couple?" girl?"

She accidentally heard at the foot of the mountain that the language in this area has the legacy of ancient Vietnamese, and she calls Abba and Amma 'Aben and Ami'.

"No, he's just an old man." Ruan Zhan lied casually.

This store is indeed run by a couple and their sixteen-year-old daughter.

"That's good. The little girl in the dream always said that I slept in her bed! She was very angry and kept telling me to leave!" Speaking of this, Xiaoxia couldn't help but shudder. "I thought the shop owner's family was being killed. But you can’t figure it out and you have to come to me to claim your life!”

Ruan Zhan stroked Xiaoxia's soft hair, and before he could answer, the sound of footsteps came from thousands of miles away.

"Is there anything going on?" He said as he walked in, Xiaoxia quickly stood up straight.

"Ruan Dasheng, why didn't you call me? Aren't you afraid that I would be matched by a female ghost?" Wan Li was still barefoot, obviously coming here in a hurry, but he was holding a blood wood sword in his hand.

Ruan Zhan put it beside him in a hurry to protect someone who was sleeping deeply.

"Get away, I'll be safe."

"If I leave you, you will definitely miss me. If I die -"

As he spoke, he sat on the edge of the bed. Xiaoxia quickly jumped up and covered Wanli's mouth, "It's so late at night, don't talk nonsense!"

"Are you afraid that I will die?" Wan Li asked with bright eyes.

"If you say this word again, I swear not to talk to you for three days." Xiaoxia was a little angry. In fact, she felt that it was very ominous to say this in this weird wild shop.

"Okay, okay, I won't tell you because I'm afraid of you, but -"

Before he finished speaking, a "dang-dang-dang" knocking sound suddenly came from downstairs.

This unexpected voice seemed to suddenly interrupt, causing the three people to silence themselves on the spot.

Xiaoxia's heart tightened and she looked at Ruan Zhan. Seeing him stand up with a solemn expression, he walked quickly to the door, but his feet were very light.

She looked at Wan Li again, who smiled reassuringly and lowered his voice and said, "It's not an illusion, we all heard it."

Xiaoxia put on her shoes without saying anything, thinking about the dream just now, her heart felt a little numb.

"I should go down and take a look, it's so annoying!" Wan Li asked in a very low voice.

"It's better to be still than to move." Ruan Zhan snorted.

"But if they play tricks, the first plan may fail, and the second plan may lead to a child. Shouldn't we be more proactive and not always be passive and beaten!"

His words touched the most uncomfortable part of Ruan Zhan's heart. He has been on the defensive since the fight with 'Yang Muyou'. Although he kept reminding himself not to act rashly, it still made him impatient without knowing it.

"Stay upstairs and don't move!" He decided to go down and take a look himself.

"No, wait, listen to me." Wan Li objected again, "The situation is unclear. We cannot disperse at this time. It is safer to gather together. What do you think?"

Ruan Zhan pondered for a while, a little undecided for a moment, but the knocking sound sounded again at this moment, as if urging him to make a decision, which made him finally nod.

"Okay, you take the Bloodwood Sword, Xiaoxia stands in the middle! Come on!"

Ruan Zhan walked out of the room first, Xiaoxia and Wan Li followed him silently.

At this time, the sky became overcast again, blocking out the only moonlight. The small shop was dark with only a slight light.

When-when-when-when-

The sound came out again, sometimes tight and sometimes slow, irregular, and the source of the sound was also uncertain, making it impossible to tell which direction it came from.

Ruan Zhan stepped onto the stairs, as if on purpose, making the floor creak, and walked downstairs recklessly. He is usually a steady person, but now he does something like a demonstration. I thought that since the other party wanted to lure them out, it would be useless for them to be careful. They might as well be generous and generous.

Dangdangdang——

Walking to the dining hall downstairs, I finally felt that the sound was a little closer. It sounded like fingers tapping on something like porcelain, and it didn't sound like a knock on the door. But when they listened carefully and tried to identify the direction, the voice disappeared and became maliciously silent.

Who is pretending? What is the purpose? Should we go upstairs or find out?

Ruan Zhan had no choice but to make a third judgment.

As soon as he entered the store, he could clearly see the environment - the kitchen was on the left side of the dining hall and the utility room was on the right side. There are many pots and pans in the kitchen, so the sound of knocking porcelain is more likely to come from there.

In a few seconds, he decided to check the kitchen himself and waved his hand to let the other two people stay.

He has night vision and can see clearly in the dark. But he forgot that the other two people did not have night vision. Xiao Xia and Wan Li only saw him wave his hand in the darkness, thinking that he was asking them to check the utility room opposite, so after Ruan Zhan left, they walked into that room. A dark room.

With a 'pop' sound, a cluster of flames flashed in the darkness, so dazzling that Xiaoxia couldn't open her eyes for a moment. When she looked sideways, she realized that Wanli had lit a lighter.

The flames flickered, illuminating Wanli's face, which looked a little ferocious, and it didn't look like him anymore!

"Take this." Wan Li put the bloodwood sword into Xiaoxia's hand, and stood in front of her, holding her with one hand and using the other hand to inspect the entire utility room with the faint light of the lighter.

During the day, only Ruan Zhan came in here. They didn't know that this place was quite big. With the light in Wanli's hand, they couldn't see the opposite wall.

Xiaoxia stumbled and let Wan Li pull her away passively before she could react. But she always felt that there was something behind the piled up debris in the darkness. When the light passed by, it became quiet. As soon as the light passed, she was in the darkness. Bare teeth and show claws. They walked closer and closer, making her feel like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.

She walked forward in small steps, looking back in the darkness, fearing that something was following her, but suddenly she felt something soft under her feet. The thing was alive, and she couldn't help but be frightened. He screamed and jumped up.

A scream of "meow" sounded at the same time, and the thing under Xiaoxia's feet suddenly jumped onto the pile of debris next to it, staring at her with green eyes in the dimness, arching his back, and making a threatening sound in his mouth. . Although she couldn't see clearly, Xiaoxia still felt that the black hairs all over the cat's body were standing on end, and it looked like it was about to kill someone!

"The cat Guan Zheng is about to catch!" Xiaoxia blurted out as she immediately recognized the cat with oversized eyes.

When Wan Li heard this, he quickly moved the lighter over, grabbed an empty pocket at hand, and put a hood over the cat! The black cat nimbly dodged and dropped its bag. It jumped out of the half-open bamboo window and disappeared into the darkness.

"Cats are not as easy to catch as dogs!" Wan Li muttered.

At this time, they had reached the end of the room, and they found no porcelain at all, only various sacks and large plant leaves that they didn't know what they were used for.

"Then let's go back!" Xiaoxia hugged her shoulders, feeling a little cold for no reason.

However, they had only taken a few steps when there was a sudden roar behind them. Looking back, I saw that the side of the sack that had been stepped on by the black cat had fallen down. Under the sack, a small porcelain altar was exposed.

The porcelain altar is black, with uneven tops, as if it were engraved with some text. It is about a foot high and is suddenly surrounded by a large pile of sacks.

Dangdang——

The sudden sound startled both of them.

This sound is so close that it feels like it is at your own feet, but if you listen carefully, it comes from the magnetic altar!

Dangdangdang——

There was another chaotic noise, as if something inside was eager to come out, and the knocking became more and more urgent, making people feel that even the jar was shaking!

Wanli looked around and got a bamboo stick in his hand. He wanted to go over and have a look, but Xiaoxia held him back.

"No, wait until Ruan Zhan comes!" She was very nervous and felt something was wrong.

What can be put in such a small jar? Why is there a knocking sound? ghost? Demon? then what?

"It's okay, I won't break it, just take a look!" Wan Li comforted Xiaoxia.

He was also nervous, but couldn't help but be curious.

He walked over slowly, holding the lighter high.

At this time, the black porcelain altar became quiet, but this silence had an indescribable temptation, as if to say: Come on, open me! bring it on! bring it on!

Wan Li stretched out the bamboo stick in his hand, pretending to knock the outside of the porcelain altar -

"don't want!"

"stop!"

Xiaoxia and Ruan Zhan, who suddenly ran in from behind, shouted almost at the same time!

Wan Li was stunned, and the bamboo stick in his hand gently fell on the porcelain altar. This weight is not enough to break a piece of paper, but the porcelain altar suddenly shattered!
