This moment coincides with the Chen hour, when the sun is in the sky and the sky and the earth are bright.
However, as the "God Dance" ceremony progressed, amidst the chaotic and disorderly drumming, the area near Xunliu Street unconsciously rose into gray-black mist, becoming dim and hazy. .
It seems as if night has fallen early.
After a while, the fainted young woman suddenly reached out to hold the incense table and slowly got up from the ground.
Her movements were extremely stiff, like a patient who had been paralyzed in bed for many years and struggled to get out of bed and walk after recovering from a serious illness.
Her face was bloodless, like a cold corpse.
And her eyes, both the eyeballs and the whites of her eyes, turned into a dull black, like two deeply sunken holes in pale marble.
"Is this what the deceased ancestors look like when they are possessed by their dead souls?"
Seeing this strange scene, everyone around them felt a little nervous and their heartstrings tightened involuntarily.
The purpose of their "divine dance" ceremony is to bring back the souls of their ancestors.
But the young woman looked more like a man-eating evil ghost at this time.
One child couldn't help but ask: "Daddy, aunt looks so scary..."
The man called "Daddy" was also frightened Breaking out in a cold sweat.
But he took a deep breath and still pretended to be calm to comfort his son: "Good boy, don't be afraid, it's just the ancestors using your aunt's body to return to the world and meet us descendants. ."
"But, daddy, my ancestor's eyes are so scary, I feel like she wants to eat me..." The child's face was still pale and he hid behind his father, not daring to look at the table next to the incense table. young woman.
"Don't be disrespectful to your ancestors." The man held his son's hand tightly.
At this time, the young woman possessed by the undead raised her head and looked around.
"Goudan, are you there?" She asked in a cold tone.
Goudan?
Who is Goudan?
Everyone present looked confused.
But they soon knew the answer to this question.
I saw an old man with gray hair and wearing a cotton robe stepped forward and said respectfully in front of the young woman: "Ancestor, I am a dog egg."
The white-haired old man's name is Bai Qingyu, and he is the patriarch of this family. He is a very senior and prestigious person. He always speaks the truth in the family, and no one dares to offend him.
But no one expected that the patriarch actually had a nickname called "Goudan"!
At this moment, in the minds of everyone, the majestic persona of the patriarch collapsed.
"Is Nannan here too?" the young woman asked again in an indifferent tone.
A dignified old lady wearing a crane cloak also took a step forward, lowered her head and said, "Nanny has met our ancestors.”
The old lady is the matron of this family and the mother-in-law of the possessed young woman.
Although she usually has a kind and kind smile, her family status is very high. , not only controls the financial power of the family, but sometimes even the patriarch Bai Qingyu is afraid of her.
However, at this moment, facing the summoned souls of her ancestors, she has also become. A humble junior.
…………
In this way, in the next period of time, the young woman called out the names of all the elders in the clan.
p>
The elderly people who were usually respected by Reed all treated themselves as juniors in front of her and behaved respectfully.
At the same time, the fear in everyone's hearts gradually dissipated——
Since the "young woman" can easily call out the little-known nicknames of the elders in the clan, this obviously proves that what is possessing the young woman is indeed the soul of the ancestor, not some evil spirit. .
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after thinking of this.
They walked up to the "young woman" one after another, bowed to her, and asked her questions.
p>
The "young woman" answered one by one with a hoarse and cold voice.
What a scene of harmony and joy between grandparents and grandchildren.
At the same time, everyone was surprised to find that, Even when faced with difficult questions, the “young woman” can easily answer them and tell them the answer they want to know most.
“Is this the wisdom of our ancestors? "They couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Only the pale child was still huddled behind his father and did not dare to go forward to see the "ancestor".
He always felt that the "ancestor" looked at everyone as if he were looking at a table full of delicious food.
…………
A few minutes later, something happened. It happened.
The "young woman" suddenly noticed the fear and suspicion in the little boy's eyes.
So she pointed at the boy and said in a hoarse voice: "He is disrespectful to me. . "
The little boy's father immediately lowered his head and said respectfully: "The kid is ignorant, I hope my ancestors will forgive me. ”
“Let him come to me. "The young woman" said expressionlessly.
The little boy shivered and took a few steps back.
There was finally a hint of anger on the "young woman's" face.
She raised her hands stiffly.
From this moment on, her arms began to grow longer, turning from flesh and blood into plant branches. Layers of green leaves grew out, like two dark green snakes, extending towards the little boy's neck.
Under her feet, criss-crossing roots and thorns quickly grew. The broken solid bluestone pavement was like countless wriggling earthworms, trying to wrap around the little boy's feet.
On her pale cheeks, the tip of her nose, her eyes, and her ears., then grow pieces of white petals, and clusters of delicate light yellow stamens grow in the middle of the petals.
Each little white flower is like a small mouth.
The petals are lips, the stamens are teeth, and the nectar is saliva.
Vaguely, everyone seemed to be able to hear these open little mouths whining in unison.
"Hungry..."
"She is not an ancestor!" Someone shouted in horror, "She is a monster!"
But only now did she realize that Abnormal, it was obviously too late.
The little boy was completely entangled in the branches, and was immediately lifted into the air. He was about to become the meal of the tree demon.
The boy's father stumbled forward, trying to stop the tree demon from eating his son, but a branch penetrated his shoulder directly, and blood flowed down.
There is no resistance.
Everyone present instantly fell into despair.
This is the current situation of mortals in front of monsters and monsters.
It’s like a fish confronting a knife, a lamb encountering a wolf.
…………
At the same time.
At the moment when the prototype of the tree demon appeared, Gu Xu relied on his powerful spiritual perception to capture a sudden burst of sinister aura in the distance.
As if in the dark night, a guiding light suddenly lit up.
"I know where the ghost is," he said to Shi Xiaohan beside him, "come with me."
After that, he used the "Meteor" he had recently learned The "Walking Moon" movement technique disappeared instantly.
Shi Xiaohan looked at the afterimage he left and was stunned for a second.
“Gu Xu, when did he become so fast?”
