C19 Blue
I didn't know what was going on either. I just felt the constant sound of babies wailing in my ears, and fear hit me in the blink of an eye.
It was dark and I was struggling to get up when I heard a rustling sound beside me. I quickly turned my head in the direction of the sound, but what greeted me was a heavy blow, hitting me squarely in the face.
I was knocked to the ground, but this time, I felt something unusual, because my hands seemed to have touched a long, thin object … Was that the door frame?
It was not an illusion. My eyes were only blinded by something. I should still be at the door.
Suddenly, I realized that I wasn't hallucinating. The unease and fear in my heart gradually disappeared. At this moment, I thought I was blind. As long as there was a sound, I would punch towards that direction.
"Not bad, not bad at all." A voice entered his ears. It was the middle-aged man.
"But that's all."
Following my words, I once again felt a kick on my stomach. Tears were streaming down my face from the pain. My entire body curled up on the floor as my abdomen spasmed.
"I don't want to kill anyone, I only want that thing." In the darkness, I felt that person squat down in front of me. "Now …" "Can you tell me where it is?"
"Get lost!" I opened my mouth to scold him, but what I got in return was another kick.
"Listen up, if you don't give me that thing, I'll take this brat's life." After a while, the middle-aged man spoke again.
"Don't even think about it!"
I heard the little man's voice, and he was right beside me, accompanied by a series of footsteps and crawling sounds.
"Forget about condensing the Five Elements Curses, you still want my things?" The small mustached man's voice sounded again, "If you don't release it, I'll destroy it!"
"As expected, the item is on you, right?" The middle-aged man's voice seemed to be deep in thought, and then I suddenly felt that the world was filled with light.
I can see again! However, the dazzling light hurt my eyes and made me cry.
At this moment, I noticed that Huang Daxian and the other two were standing in front of me. Beside me was that middle-aged man.
A dozen! Just who was he, to actually raise so much!
"Hand him over, then we'll do the same." The middle-aged man lightly said and immediately picked me up.
"It's fine if I give it to you, but I need to ask you a few questions." Big Beard wanted to say something, but was overpowered by Yellow Great Immortal.
"Go ahead and ask, there's quite a bit of time."
After a moment of silence, Yellow Great Immortal opened his mouth and asked, "Why did you condense the Five Elements Curse? This thing is extremely sinister. What is your motive?"
"Puchi …"
I saw the middle-aged man suddenly smile and shake his head. "Do you still think that I'm the one who's locking my soul? Although I am not a good person, I will not touch anything that I should not! "
"But I can tell you one thing, I know who's doing it!"
"What!"
Everyone was shocked. This guy actually knew who was refining the Five Elements Curse? Could it be that they were in the same group?
"Who is it?"
The corner of the middle-aged man's mouth curled up. He didn't say anything, but his eyes were fixed on the piece of porcelain in the bearded man's hand.
"We will give it to you, but can you tell us what its use is?" Huang Daxian snorted coldly.
The middle-aged man went silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and said slowly, "This thing is a fragment from the Ghost Tomb. As you know, I'm interested in raising imps."
"I've collected this for a long time, I'm only missing this piece. This item is useless to you, and I don't want to kill anyone either …"
At this point, I finally understood a little why this fellow didn't have any killing intent. It was only because of that piece of porcelain.
"Here you go!"
The bearded man didn't hesitate and directly threw the piece of porcelain towards the middle-aged man. A ghost infant jumped up from the ground and held the piece of porcelain in its arms, then ran over to the middle-aged man and handed it over to him.
"The cooperation is quite good. I have always been a person of integrity." After saying that, the middle-aged man kicked me in the back and I was sent flying.
I hit the ground hard, a sweet taste in my throat and a mouthful of blood.
"Although I really want to leave now, it's still early, so I might as well have a chat with you guys." Suddenly, the middle-aged man laughed and said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Xu Lan, and I have a nickname from the outside world, Ghost Mountain Man."
"What, you're a ghost of a mountain?!"
When I raised my head and saw the shocked expression on Yellow Great Immortal's face, I was shocked. What kind of background does this fellow have?
"Don't worry, I don't like killing people. You should know that …" Xu Lan smiled, "Actually, I was the one who put the buttons in those rooms."
The moment he said this, the entire audience went into an uproar.
"His goal is very simple, framing him …" Xu Lan pointed at the mustache man with her chin. "Wouldn't that be the only way to get the chance to rummage through his house?"
"Now, can you tell us who is condensing the Five Elements Curses?" The bearded man frowned as he looked at Xu Lan.
Xu Lan didn't say anything. Instead, he sized me up with his gaze, "I find this kid rather pleasing to the eye. So what if I help you guys?"
"At eleven o'clock at night, he will kill again. My little one will help you find him." Xu Lan turned around and said while walking, "But let me say this first, this guy is a bit difficult to deal with …"
Then Xu Lan left just like that, leaving the four of us in a daze for a long time.
"You're letting him go just like that? Are you crazy to just give him my stuff for no reason? " The bearded man looked at Yellow Great Immortal and said unhappily.
"Do you know who he is? Otherwise, if he doesn't kill you, there will be plenty of people coming to kill you! " Yellow Great Immortal gave his mustache and thought for a moment before narrowing his eyes. "It's time to make some preparations. Otherwise, it really wouldn't be easy to deal with tonight."
On the way back, I really wanted to find out Xu Lan's identity, but since Yellow Great Immortal didn't say anything, I shut my mouth and didn't ask.
I'm only in charge of some scraps, like live chicken, goat's blood, and gourd water. This was not the water from the gourd, but an unknown plant. If he cut the vines open, drops of clear water would come out.
Rumors sprinkled it over one's eyes and made it possible to see ghosts.
Time flew by and the four of us were already prepared, waiting for Xu Lan to tell us the news.
"Is this person reliable? He looks very sickly …" The man with the mustache curled his lips in dissatisfaction.
"He can still believe what he says. However, his actions are quite temperamental. This time, it's a bit strange." As I said that, I noticed that Huang Daxian was looking at me.
At that moment, the sound of a baby's laughter suddenly rang out. We looked outside the door and saw a ghost baby sitting on the ground.
After glancing at us, it turned around and ran. We did not hesitate to rush out as well.
