Funerary Lady - C55
I was particularly sensitive to all that had happened, but I thought about it.
After all, if he really wanted to do something to me, he wouldn’t have to wait until now.
I also remembered that on my leg, I was grabbed by the coffin that night, leaving a few bruises on it.
At first I thought the tracks would go down soon, but they haven’t changed much.
Liu Qing was probably staring at those marks.
The journey down the mountain had taken such a long time?
I frowned in disbelief. At the same time, I felt a little upset.
At this time, I saw that Liu Qing had already stopped moving and sat beside me with his shirt off.
I had some medicine at home, but he didn’t use it. He took something out of his pocket and applied it to the wound.
Not only his abdomen, but there was also a handprint on his back, as if it was deeply embedded in his flesh. It was a shocking sight to behold.
It seemed like another hand had touched his back at that time. He was actually able to endure such a wound and return.
Not only that, I could see that his back was scarred, as if he had been whipped and cut with a sharp weapon.
Looking at these scars, it was hard to imagine what Liu Qing had experienced before.
However, after seeing this, I fell into a deep sleep. In my dreams, I seemed to see streams of thick black fog wrap around me, making it impossible for me to escape …
Faintly, I saw people kneeling around me, their backs to me, as if in confession.
As for the person that they were kneeling to, it was a figure hidden within the black aura.
I couldn’t see what the figure looked like, but I could feel the stinging pain in my eyes.
I sucked in a breath of cold air. I don’t know why, but at this moment, a sense of reverence suddenly arose in my heart. I couldn’t resist the urge to kneel down and kowtow to him as though I was worshipping him.
This kind of feeling had never happened before. Very quickly, I felt as though there was an aura rising from my body. It was as though there was a pair of hands tightly grabbing onto my throat …
I could feel the figure in the layers of black air, as if it was watching me, its eyes so cold that it made me shiver.
It was only a vague shadow, but even though he could feel the gaze, he still felt a chill coming from the bottom of his heart.
That figure didn’t seem to be a ghost, but … What exactly was it?
I don’t know, I don’t know…
Furthermore, this feeling of respect, what was going on …
At this moment, a ray of light pierced my eyes. I opened my eyes and looked at my body.
I lay on the brick bed, while Liu Qing sat beside me, leaning against the wall, also in a deep slumber.
His upper body was naked, and there were strips of cloth wrapped around his body. Although he looked thin, his muscles were quite well-proportioned.
Looking at the time, my face turned slightly red. Looking at the time, it was already 6 in the afternoon.
We were supposed to be home by four or five in the morning, and by then I was too tired to look at the time.
Looking at the sky, he could roughly guess what was going on.
I tried to move. My whole body was twitching in pain, and my fingers from last night were bandaged.
At this time, Lingling also entered the room. Seeing that I had woken up, she was pleasantly surprised.
“Big sister, you’re finally awake. Are you hungry?”
I shook my head. My entire body was sore and I felt a wave of nausea. Under this state, I didn’t feel hungry at all.
Even though the voice was soft, Liu Qing was still woken up. He slowly came over, stared at me for a while and said:
“Clothes unbuttoned.”
Startled, I looked down and saw that one of the buttons had been undone while I was sleeping, but it was harmless.
And my nervous expression made Liu Qing start laughing.
“Be serious, I have a lot of questions to ask you.”
I stared at Liu Qing and said. Facing his smile and roguish attitude, I had no choice but to look from another angle.
This guy has saved me three times, every time it was related to my life, and this time he even sustained such heavy injuries.
However, this fellow carried a life on his back. How could he dare to wander around the village like that?
“I know you have a lot of questions you want to ask me, but I’m single right now and I’m not in a hurry to get married.
We can try to get along. ”
“Who wants to ask you that?”
I couldn’t hold back my laughter. I was surprised that I was amused by his silly joke.
Just as I finished speaking, Liu Qing suddenly turned and looked out the window, smiling bitterly:
“Actually, I had a lot of questions I wanted to ask you a few days ago, but I found out later that you don’t know anything that I want to know.
What you want to know, I don’t think I know anything.
Right now, I’m only doing what my father told me before he died. As for my father’s motive, he said that I will find out in the future.
I know a lot about this village, but… I’m sorry.
“I’m also investigating the clues right now. I can’t help you.”
After saying this and seeing me fall silent, Liu Qing continued to speak:
“There are some things I know, but I can’t tell you.
It won’t do you any good to know it too early. That’s what my father told me.
“The two of us are the same, we are both in the dark. You don’t know if our father is a friend or an enemy, and neither do I.”
As he said that, Liu Qing took another glance at the window, then asked me:
“Last night, you cast a mystical technique that was truly evil. Do you know what those symbols mean?”
I shook my head.
“At the beginning, I drew those symbols myself, but later on, it was as if there was some sort of special power driving me.”
Liu Qing also saw my situation last night, so he wasn’t surprised to hear me say this, he only sighed:
“What happened last night might leave behind a large hidden danger.
The Yin Yang Art already has Qian Tianhe. With your ability, you shouldn’t be able to control so much Yin Qi.
He must have paid some sort of price … Pay attention to yourself…
“If you hadn’t practiced this kind of demonic technique to perfection, you wouldn’t have been able to use it.”
Liu Qing said to me with a hint of worry in his voice.
Now I know that although Liu Qing was sloppy when he talked to me, he was still wary of me.
I was suspicious of him, and he of me.
But despite my suspicions, she still saved me time and time again …
“It’s dark. I’m going to leave.
Let me tell you one more thing, my father told me before about the death of Aunt Zhang.
The recent deaths in the village were all caused by the ghosts of the Aunt Zhang.
The few people who were involved in her death all died.
Of course, other than you, your luck is better. ”
“Will the Aunt Zhang continue looking for me?”
I asked after a moment.
I had suspected long ago that from the moment I was in Funerary Lady, those people who died might have had something to do with Aunt Zhang’s death.
Or slander, or spread, and I should be the culprit.
But who would have thought that I would be the only one left after Aunt Zhang killed so many people.
And what did this adoptive father have to do with it?
“No, I don’t think so. It has been over since last night.”
“Aunt Zhang… Have you lost your soul? ”
I asked.
“Aunt Zhang’s soul is fine, the problem is you, your body has undergone some kind of change, I won’t let Aunt Zhang get involved to you anymore.”
“Then, has this matter come to an end?”
I asked.
“Aunt Zhang’s matter has come to an end, but it has ended … But it’s not the end. My father told me to do something else, but there should be more things that will happen. ”
Thinking about it, there were still many doubts that he had yet to clarify. How could it end so easily?
When it was dark, Liu Qing left. After all, the village knew him, he could not stay in the village for long, and he could not be seen by others.
It was only after he had gone that I remembered that he had looked at the handprint on my calf while I was asleep.
How did he know of the existence of these handprints? And after I woke up, he didn’t mention the handprint, did he forget it, didn’t want to talk about it, or didn’t care?
That night, I stood outside the big gate and looked at the thin moonlight in the sky. Suddenly, I saw a person standing at the entrance of Aunt Zhang’s house.
