Chapter 220 Signs of the Living Dead
Chapter 220 Signs of the Living Dead
"Brother Zhao, what's the situation at your villa?"
As soon as they entered the farm, they asked Zhao Laoxie about the situation. After all, they had only heard the general outline of the incident, but they had to ask in person for the detailed inside story.
They have a good relationship with Zhao Laoxie, so they are all brothers.
Zhao Laoxie then told them the story of the villa again, and also asked Liu Laodao and Wang Congdao to tell them in detail about the situation in the villa.
After hearing the whole story, the five of them were surprised. They didn't expect that the cause of the incident was a little servant stealing something, which led to a bloody incident and turned the entire villa into this state.
Zhao Laoxie only told them that the little servant stole his master's things and ran away, but was happened to be seen by his younger brother Zhao Gaoyang, who brought him back to the villa. In a moment of carelessness, he opened the spiritual weapon that suppressed powerful ghosts, and thus suffered a tragic disaster.
Of course it is impossible to say that the younger brother coveted other people's things. After all, they also have to save face. Anyway, the matter was done in secret and outsiders could not find out anything.
"Brother Zhao, do you know who the master of that servant is?" The slightly older Taoist Zuo Gong asked curiously.
Zhao Lao Xie's expression was grim. He said, "You know that person too. They're the man and woman surnamed Ding. They've been to Zhuangjia Town before."
Taoist Zuo narrowed his eyes slightly, "So it's them."
"They used fake identities in Beisha Country, and those two were wanted criminals who escaped from Dayan Country." Zhao Laoxie added.
"Oh? A wanted criminal?" Taoist Zuo Gong raised his eyebrows and became more curious. After all, the man did have some skills and could suppress such a powerful ghost, so he naturally wanted to know more about his background.
So did everyone else.
Zhao Laoxie glanced at Si Rong not far away and let her speak.
Si Rong cursed in her heart, but she had to hold it in and could only say it again honestly.
After they understood clearly, their expressions became somewhat complicated.
At this time, there was another sound of horse hooves outside. It turned out that Zhao Laoxie's men brought a few Taoists over.
This was Zhao Laoxie's order, to hire more people to prevent any further accidents.
Taoist Zuo Gong and his men had no objection to this. Having more people was good, after all, several Taoists had died in the villa before, and it was obviously a very tricky situation. At the same time, they were also a little puzzled as to how Ning Ji had suppressed that thing at that time?
At this time, the sun had already set and the sky had darkened.
They walked to the front of the farm and looked at Zhaojiazhuang in the distance with frowns slightly.
The gray fog extended a lot further outward, the cold air became heavier, and there was silence and death everywhere.
The evil spirit there is very strong now!
For safety reasons, they first set up defensive measures for the farm. It is impossible to enter the farm tonight and they can only wait until tomorrow.
……
Inside the city, Si He took a medicinal bath and had acupuncture, and her complexion looked better.
However, after falling asleep, a faint cold air emanated from his body, and his originally rosy complexion gradually turned pale.
The room was quiet, with only the sound of shallow breathing.
Ning Ji sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her sleeping face, frowning slightly.
After a while, he took her pulse again, very gently for fear of waking her.
Her pulse condition was very strange now. The deeper she slept, the weaker her pulse became. After a while, she couldn't even feel her pulse, and her breathing was so weak that it seemed as if she had no breath.
"He He." Ning Ji called her and patted her arm gently.
Soon, Si He drowsily opened her eyes and looked at Ning Ji sleepily, "Husband, what's wrong?"
Seeing her open her eyes and wake up, Ning Ji held her wrist and felt her pulse beating again and becoming more normal. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he didn't show anything on his face. He reached out and gently stroked her face, which was a little cold. Looking into her hazy eyes, he asked softly, "Are you feeling unwell?"
She shook her head and said, "I'm sleepy."
"Well, then go to sleep."
"it is good."
She closed her eyes and fell asleep again, breathing shallowly.
Ning Ji was still sitting by the bed, watching quietly, his fingertips on her wrist, carefully feeling the changes in her pulse.
After a while, she fell asleep and her pulse gradually subsided, making it almost undetectable for him.
Her breathing became very weak, almost inaudible, and her face was extremely pale. If you didn't look closely, you might think she was dead.
Is this a sign of becoming the living dead?
Ning Ji gently put her hand back into the thin quilt, looked at her sleeping face, and his emotions surged in his heart.
After a long time, his mood finally calmed down, and he suddenly smiled silently. The smile was very gentle and contained a unique doting look.
On the table not far away, the candlelight flickered, and the warm yellow candlelight shone on his handsome profile, giving him an inexplicable feeling of peace and tranquility.
Suddenly, a slight noise outside broke the silence.
Ning Ji turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice. The tenderness in his eyes faded and a hint of coldness emerged.
Call ~
The next moment, the candle on the table went out and an invisible cold wind blew out.
The moment the lights went out, Si He, who was originally sleeping soundly, was suddenly awakened and opened her eyes vigilantly. She turned her head and saw Ning Ji still sitting by the bed, and she relaxed a little.
At this time, the room was plunged into darkness, with only the moonlight shining in from the window, adding a little light.
"what!!!"
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from outside, and no one knew what had happened. Immediately afterwards, several hurried footsteps were heard, as if going to check on the person who was screaming.
Ning Ji noticed that Si He had woken up, so he turned to look at her. The room was dim and he could only vaguely see her figure. "Go to sleep, it's okay, I'll go check on her."
His cold voice was gentle and soothing, which made her feel much more at ease. "Yeah."
Ning Ji then stood up, but did not light the lamp. He walked towards the door in the darkness at a leisurely pace.
Si He looked at his back quietly, vaguely feeling the faint murderous aura emanating from him.
Outside the house, the screams were intermittent, and there were also sounds of fighting, but the sounds seemed to be getting farther and farther away, going downstairs.
After a while, a lot of noises were heard around. It should be that the people in the inn were disturbed and came out to check the situation.
Ning Ji opened the door and walked out of the room. The lantern outside illuminated the corridor, and the light also shone on his face.
At this moment, the coldness on his face became even heavier, and a hint of cold hostility flashed in his eyes.
He closed the door gently and walked downstairs.
Si He sat up, resisting the strong sleepiness, sat up, pricked up her ears, and listened carefully to the movement outside.
After a while, I heard a loud noise coming from the street outside.
She put on her shoes, walked to the window facing the street and looked out.
It was just after nightfall, and there were still some people strolling around the night market, so there were still quite a few people on the street. At this moment, many people retreated to both sides of the street, looking at the group of people in the middle of the road in shock.
