The hands, the darkness, and his own face blended into a chaotic light and shadow.
Colorful lines rotate in front of your eyes, and life and breath gradually drift away.
"Crack!"
The left side of my face hurts.
The soreness and numbness on the left side of my face and the stinging pain on the tip of my tongue hit me at the same time.
Open your eyes.
Jasmine's face.
Jasmine is crying.
"What are you going to do! What are you going to do!"
Jasmine was grabbing her arms, and her arms were...
It's strangled tightly around his neck.
"Liao Yilan!"
The moment she heard her name, Xiaolan's whole body went limp as if all her strength had been taken away by a needle.
The neck relaxed.
You can breathe.
Xiaolan took a deep breath of air.
My throat is still sore.
Being hugged tightly by something again.
Jasmine buried her head in Xiaolan's arms, her shoulders trembling, and she clutched Xiaolan's coat tightly with both hands. Her clothes quickly became wet with tears.
Xiaolan was a little embarrassed.
this……
Is your relationship with Jasmine so close?
She patted Jasmine on the shoulder in confusion.
"Be good, stop crying, don't be afraid, I... uh!"
Before she finished speaking, Jasmine wiped away her tears and pushed Xiao Lan away and punched her in the face.
Xiaolan suddenly dodged back and hit her head directly on the tree trunk.
"Molly, calm down! Are you crazy?"
"You are crazy!" Jasmine gritted her teeth and wiped away the tears on her face, "I was not careful and you almost strangled yourself to death. Liao Yilan, why are you so crazy?!"
Almost strangled himself?
It was still dark all around, and he was sitting in a patch of dense grass. Not far away was the quiet courtyard of Huo Simao's house.
"We...didn't we follow Huo Simao to the village chief's house? Why now..."
"You must be dreaming," Jasmine saw that Xiaolan didn't seem to be lying, and her tone softened, "We were waiting here not long ago, and I saw you dozing off, so I asked you to take a rest behind me. If it weren't for me
I heard you struggling, you... you are dead now!"
Is it a dream?
Why would I have such a dream at such a time? I almost strangled myself to death.
"Moli," Xiaolan grabbed one of Jasmine's hands, "I'm sorry for making you worry."
Jasmine's pale face turned red instantly, and she shook Xiaolan's hand away, "What are you worried about? I'm not worried!"
"You're crying, isn't it because you're afraid that I'll die?"
"I'm not crying!" Jasmine turned away angrily and stared at the yard again, "You are dreaming."
"Ah? No, I was already awake at that time, and I saw..."
"Shut up."
Xiaolan was afraid of being beaten, so she hugged her curled-up knees aggrievedly, sat on the grass and looked towards the yard.
According to the time in the dream, it will not be long before the sky starts to turn white.
Xiaolan stared at the door of the courtyard. The scene in front of her eyes suddenly blurred for a second, and then returned to normal.
This blur was accompanied by a sudden stinging pain in the back of the neck.
The burning pain came and went even faster. Xiaolan even noticed the pain coming from the back of her neck after a moment of identification.
I caressed the back of my neck unconsciously, but there was nothing unusual. The burning heat that penetrated my bone marrow did not appear on my skin.
Xiaolan shook his head twice.
There is a strange feeling of fighting for control of the body.
"Jasmine..." Xiaolan put her hand on Jasmine's shoulder and just called out softly, but was interrupted.
"Shh-"
The sky is getting white.
"squeak--"
The door opened.
"Just leave..."
Huo Si Mao's limbs were twisted and he moved out of the courtyard tremblingly.
"Let's follow." Jasmine grabbed Xiaolan's collar and lifted her up.
Another person appeared.
"We can get closer, they won't seem to notice us," Jasmine said without looking back.
Are the thoughts the same as in the dream?
"This direction..." Jasmine paused and looked at Xiaolan in shock, "You..."
Xiaolan nodded, "So far, everything is the same as in my dream. I dreamed that they would enter the village chief's house. After we followed in, a man rushed out of the corridor and strangled me."
Jasmine seemed to believe Xiaolan's words, "Then shall we still go in?"
"We must go in," Xiaolan said, "How about we climb in through the window?"
Not a good idea.
When the two were hesitating, the light in the village chief's house suddenly turned on.
Not caring so much, the two of them pushed open the door and rushed into the corridor.
Xiaolan's heart twitched, but no shadow appeared and no one attacked her.
Jasmine made a silent gesture and pointed forward with her other hand.
There was a faint sound of conversation coming from that room.
"Are they one of yours?" the lady's voice said.
After a long while, a cold and stiff voice said word by word, "No."
was discovered.
Want to run?
"Then can I go out and take a look?"
"Can't."
"Let me think about it again, okay?"
"today."
"I know, before tonight, I knew..."
"Let her come out."
"Who's coming out?" Madam's voice was trembling.
"You know."
"Now...it's me."
"lie."
"I...I didn't..."
"lie."
Got it.
The person currently communicating with the abnormal Huo Simao and others is the lady who is asking for help.
He tried to pretend to be someone else, but failed.
It must be very scary.
The two of them rushed straight to the door of the east wing and pushed open the door.
The lady looked over with shocked and helpless eyes.
The three walking corpses didn't even look at the two of them, as if they only had eyes for the lady.
The two quickly got into a fighting stance.
"It's fine……"
Even though the lady said this, her voice was trembling, "It's already dawn, they can't hurt anyone."
Can only black sky hurt people?
Then they are indeed the ones attacking me.
"Today." One of them repeated stiffly.
"I'll let you know." Madam sighed.
After finishing speaking, Huo Simao and the others filed out of the east wing as if their mission had been completed. Xiaolan wanted to follow them to take a look, but was stopped by the madam.
"You two," the lady forced a smile, "Isn't this the first time we have met."
On the surface, this sounds very strange. Of course, this is not the first time I have met people from the same village, and not long ago...
But both Xiaolan and Jasmine guessed what the lady meant.
Although very surprising, it is good news.
"What the lady means is..."
"If I guess correctly, the identities used by the two of you last time were Master Fengmu and Master Qiuyuan."
Madam knows about things outside this timeline!
Is this the reason why the lady was killed?
"The same goes for Madam. She is Madam's secret."
The lady shook her head lightly and said, "It's unspeakable. Last time I guessed that Fengmu Qiuyuan's identity was replaced, so I took a dangerous move. Unexpectedly, I still lost my life due to the curse. Thank you for your hard work."
The truth seems to be close at hand.
"What do you know, Madam," Jasmine asked hurriedly, "Who is going to harm you?"
The madam was a little stunned, "Ah... don't you two know yet?"
"Their masters are exactly who you were last time, Master Fengmu and Master Qiuyuan."
