Dragon King 969
s or getting your clothes. But everything else, you'll have to do yourself.” I said with a slight frown."...Where did you learn to serve people And you even have a look that makes one's heart melt." H...The little wife was taken aback, her expression clearly displeased by the woman's tone. Furthermore, the little wife didn't seem afraid of her at all. She lowered her voice and questioned, "Xi Linzhou, what are you doing here!"
Xi Linzhou was as if she hadn't heard her question, her facial expression didn't change at all, only her eyeballs moved slightly. I thought she was going to say something, but she suddenly closed the door.
The young apprentice wife panicked and immediately pinched her fingers, silently reciting the incantation to summon a minor spirit. But all we heard were two light hissing sounds, and the temperature around us suddenly dropped. Our ears felt as if they were underwater for a moment.
Immediately, a chaotic and icy breath wafted from beneath the door. I grabbed my little wife's hand and ran out.
"There's no way out," the young wife frowned and said, "She sets up her barrier so quickly—let's break it first."
"How do we break this" I lowered my head to rummage through the small crossbody bag Mu Wanchen had given me, my fingers trembling slightly. I wasn't afraid, but rather anxious!
The sound of dry retching came from that room, it was bone-chilling — What was Xi Lingzhou doing!
Mu Xiaoqiao had experienced more things like this than I had. She looked pretty calm as she muttered incantations, but we retreated to the doorway. Instinctively, I looked up at the luxurious corridor we had just walked through —
Gone
The path ahead had turned into a grayish tunnel, leading to an unknown destination.
Is this a trick
After the young wife finished chanting her incantation, I saw the scene in this passage flicker for a moment.
The incantation for shattering walls should work, but it seems to be ineffective at the moment. The retching sounds from the bathroom are getting louder—
"She, what is she doing..." Mu Xiao Qiao looked at me fearfully.
This sound is truly indescribable. It's not like the noises a normal person makes when they have an upset stomach or morning sickness.
It's not like vomiting up the five organs and six bowels, but rather a desperate frenzy, frantically clawing at their own throats to induce vomiting!
The atmosphere in the washroom grew colder and colder. I pulled out a talisman to ward off evil spirits, and it immediately trembled slightly, slowly burning itself up.
The chaotic aura was stirred by the talisman's magic, as if it had awoken something. A tremor sounded from the door of the last cubicle in the restroom.
The young mistress pinched her fingers, forming the seal, but she couldn't help but be curious despite her fear - it was perfectly normal, wanting to see clearly what was causing such terror.
We hid by the door, peering inside. The door to the innermost compartment trembled and rattled, emitting some strange noises.
A thick black mist seeped out from the cracks at the top and bottom of the partition. Within the blackness, grayish shadows gradually emerged, and I saw a pair of arms hooked onto the edge of the door frame.
"...Ghosts Someone in my house was raising a ghost last time, and it chased me wanting to kill me! It used paper figures as its vessel. Was she just performing a ritual a moment ago" I said urgently, "We have to run, little wife, there's more than one vengeful spirit released!"
I've already seen several strange heads squeezing out of the door panels!
“She’s making preparations here, could she be planning to attack the Dragon King” Mu Xiao Qiao questioned in puzzlement.
"I only know that if we don't run, we're going to be attacked!" I anxiously tugged on my little sister-in-law's wrist.
"Don't worry, I can subdue the evil spirits right away—" she just comforted me when a black mist like an arrow rushed towards us!
I swiftly subdued the young mistress, my eyes sharp and hands quick. The black mist, upon hitting the wall, immediately dissipated into a cloud that flitted towards the grayish passage. It vanished quickly into the darkness at the end of the tunnel.
“What on earth is going on” Mu Xia Qiao was also confused: “Isn’t this barrier supposed to protect the caster Why are these things escaping from it”
"Then we should escape too" I watched as more and more ghostly figures crawled out from under the boards in that last compartment, making my scalp tingle.
How to be like a "channel"
The sound of vomiting from inside the door gradually subsided, and with a light "click," the doorknob turned.
Xi Linzhou's terrifying face looked extremely frightening in the black mist—her cheeks and eye sockets were sunken, looking like a drained corpse!
"These ghosts are what she coughed up!" I blurted out.
The little mistress was startled, jumping back in fright: "Don't scare me! How did she become like this! She was annoying before, but at least she was human! How could she become—"
I dragged my little wife towards the gray tunnel, the ghosts from the restroom were crawling over the floor and walls!
“The last time I saw this woman, I thought she was mentally unstable, like she was always sleeping. I overheard a conversation between Master Yunfan and Sister Zhao, it seemed like Sister Zhao did something to her that led to her being neither human nor ghost…” I hastily explained in a sentence.
"Don't run around!" a voice suddenly said in my ear, causing me to freeze.
"What's wrong" Mu Xiaoqiao looked at me curiously.
"Someone was whispering in my ear... Did you hear that, Little Mistress" I asked.
Mu Xiaqiao cocked her ear and listened, shaking her head. "Nope..."
Am I going crazy Why am I always experiencing weird hallucinations!
And the sound made it impossible for me to distinguish between male and female, it was too ethereal and illusory, like an instruction suddenly coming from within my brain, impossible to describe.
"Just now, a voice told me not to run around... What should I do..." I looked at Mu Xia Qiao, somewhat at a loss.
My young wife is soft and cute, just a few years older than me. She looks much more delicate than I do. Although she has more experience dealing with these Yin and Yang affairs than I do, ...she still seems very fragile.
"To break the barrier, once it's broken, there's nothing to fear... Just now a ghost flew out, it must have been a powerful one who rushed out first. These ghosts should all be trying to escape. We just need to seize the opportunity and shatter the barrier!"
The air is thick with an ominous chill now. It's likely we'll be overwhelmed by these lingering spirits before we even get a chance to break the barrier.
I rummaged through my bag, looking for anything else I could use.
My bag contained paper figures, a few red strings, the talisman that Mu Wanchen gave me, and the small box of silver needles from home.
When I was drawing talismans, I knocked over a paper man.
The paper figure was blown by a gust of cold wind as it fell to the ground, swaying back and forth. Then suddenly, it stood up on the ground and began frantically "floating" outward.
The little wife hurried and said, "Throw them all out, throw them all out!"
"Throw it out and let them all run in" I blurted, frantically fumbling with something in my hand.
"Right, right, these ghosts seeing the apparition instinctively want to burrow into it. It's a good thing they're going in, isn't it—"
It can be felled with a single spell.
The little wife winked at me, and I flung the paper figures from my bag. The gloomy winds carrying spirits vanished in an instant.
Not far from us, a little paper figure suddenly collapsed to the ground as if its energy had been drained. It seemed this was the "spot" where the soul escaped.
Mu Xiaqiao immediately pinched the formula and silently recited the spell of breaking and destroying— darkness. He used a white paper lantern to lead the way for us. We hadn't walked far when he laughed and said——"Hehe, we're here."HereThe bluestone path came to an end, and once again a swirling mass...
