After walking for a while, one person and one ghost came across a forked road. It was said to be a forked road, but it was only slightly separated. Both roads were heading east, but one was to the southeast and the other to the northeast.
Zuo Xiangqing stopped at the intersection, hesitant.
He glanced at her interestingly, stretched out his little hand, and pointed to the one on the right.
Zuo Xiangqing was a little surprised, and took out the paper again and wrote: - Which way do you want to go?
The little girl nodded.
Zuo Xiangqing felt that she couldn't tell the difference between the two paths anyway, so it would be better to take what the little girl wanted. Maybe the child's intuition would be more accurate.
So she nodded and walked on that road with Fun.
After walking up, Zuo Xiangqing was a little hesitant when she looked at the ghost standing upright on the roadside, but after thinking about it for a moment, she still extended her hand towards the interesting person. The little girl was stunned, a little confused and hesitant.
Seeing that she didn't reject her, Zuo Xiangqing reached out and took the little girl's hand.
Funny's hands froze and he raised his eyes to look at her.
Sure enough, Zuo Xiangqing frowned.
Why is this child's hands as cold as ice? Is she always afraid? That's right, even she is a little scared in such a terrifying environment, let alone a child.
If she hadn't cast a mute spell on herself before coming in, she would have been so frightened that she would have screamed loudly when she saw a ghost in front of her.
This is what Master taught me. Master said that the rules of some ghost realms are easy to forget, and some resentful ghosts are highly intelligent and good at taking advantage of human weaknesses. Therefore, if you know the rules in advance, you can cast spells on yourself.
Zuo Xiangqing knew that he was not a very calm person, so he decided to do so after reading the rules of the blood candle.
Thinking of this, she felt sad again. The master was the most reliable person she had ever met. His teachings were always helping her, even saving her own life. However, the master was already dead and was killed by Li Ting and his party.
Got killed.
She felt uncomfortable in her heart, glanced at the little girl next to her, and controlled herself to remain calm towards the innocent people.
It was interesting to see that she had no intention of letting go, so she didn't say anything.
The two of them had a smooth journey. Except for the scary red-eyed ghost on the roadside and the darkness of the forest, it could almost be called a smooth journey.
Looking at the faint light source in front of her, Zuo Xiangqing was a little dazed.
She took the little girl and walked quickly for two steps, and finally stepped on a bright spot.
Even in Beizhou like this, even the faint light coming through behind the clouds made Zuo Xiangqing feel friendly.
She was about to be driven crazy by this dark forest, but luckily she came out!
She looked around, but didn't see anyone else. It was strange that this forest was on a hillside. The farther east and higher, the narrower it became. It was not very wide here, and the monk's eyesight was very good.
.
Why don't you see senior brothers and the others?
Just when Zuo Xiangqing was wondering whether to go back to respond, he felt the little hand in his hand move and he broke free.
She was about to ask, but found that she couldn't make a sound.
Ah, the gag.
Zuo Xiangqing made a final decision and removed the speech-blocking spell for herself, and then she said, "Who is your elder and how did you get brought in?"
"Li Ting, it's my brother." Qingqu blew out the red candle in his hand and said...
A trace of anger flashed in Zuo Xiangqing's eyes, but she tried to suppress it, "He is not a good person. Hey, do you have any other relatives?"
Fun shook his head seriously, "Brother is not a bad person."
Zuo Xiangqing sighed, not knowing what to say for a moment. If she didn't see her senior brothers and the others after a while, she would have to go back and would have no choice but to leave the child here.
Let's chat a few more words and find her a safer place to stay.
After all, this can be regarded as the relative of the enemy, so this is considered to be the most benevolent and righteous.
So she said: "My name is Zuo Xiangqing, you can call me sister, what is your name?"
"interesting."
"What's interesting, my name?" Zuo Xiangqing said with a smile.
, trying to follow the little girl's train of thought.
"My name is interesting."
Zuo Xiangqing:……
The atmosphere became silent again, and Zuo Xiangqing was a little embarrassed.
"...Hmm, interesting sister." Who would give their child such a weird name?
"What's wrong?" The little girl seemed to want to tilt her head, but she controlled herself.
"It's nothing, it's pretty good." Zuo Xiangqing said when she had nothing to say.
"Is Funny a good boy?" the little girl asked as if she was sensitive to a certain word in her words.
"Ah, yes." Zuo Xiangqing was a little confused.
The corners of his mouth curved interestingly and he nodded.
"Let's stand over here. You can find a safer place later." Even though it was her enemy's sister, Zuo Xiangqing couldn't be angry and even touched the little girl's head.
They stood in an open area again, and Zuo Xiangqing realized at this time that the little girl's skin color was paler than most people, and she seemed to be unhealthy, and her eyes were big and black.
She subconsciously adjusted her clothes, but her hands stopped.
"What's this?"
When she was arranging her clothes, she could see more of her neck. She saw a little bit of black stuff, which seemed to be on her neck.
Zuo Xiangqing's expression became serious. Did Li Ting abuse this little girl?
She immediately stretched out her hand to pull down the girl's skirt.
But the little girl stretched out her hand and pressed Zuo Xiangqing's hand.
Her hands were cold, and she pressed Zuo Xiangqing's hand firmly. She looked directly at her with a pair of dark eyes and shook her head.
"Aren't you a good boy? Be obedient, my sister is doing this for your own good." As soon as these words came out, Funny stiffened visibly, and his hands, which had always been cool and steady, even trembled a little.
But Zuo Xiangqing was in a hurry and naturally didn't notice.
She was eager to find out whether the child had been abused.
The interesting black eyes were stiff, sometimes dull, sometimes flashing with a little resentment, as if he was in a state of being unable to control himself.
Her hand no longer pressed Zuo Xiangqing's hand hard.
Zuo Xiangqing pulled down some of her clothes as she wished, exposing her neck and a little bit of her collarbone.
There was a clear strangulation mark on the neck, and there were some wounds. The flesh in the wounds turned out a little, but there was no bleeding.
Like white meat soaked in wine.
Moreover, the strangulation mark was not only on her neck, but also slightly downward. Looking at it, you could tell that there were such marks elsewhere on her body.
The most important thing is that the skin on this little girl's body is different from that on her face, more like...
Zuo Xiangqing's eyes suddenly widened.
…
It's not that easy for ghosts to transform into human beings, otherwise those ghosts wouldn't let their dead appearance appear.
The lonely ghosts in the underworld can take the form of humans for a long time, but it requires a certain amount of ghost energy, so even if they are black and white, they always maintain a pure ghost body.
That's what it looks like when you die, such as a long, droopy tongue.
What's interesting is that she's only half a ghost. She's better at keeping her ghost body floating than turning into a human form.
So even if she turned into a human form due to Li Ting's orders, most of the time she would just keep the outer parts of her clothes like a human being, which was easier and less ghostly.
Zuo Xiangqing suddenly opened her clothes, and she had no time to perform the complicated transformation. Moreover, some of Zuo Xiangqing's words also touched a certain nerve in Wangui, making her state a little wrong.
