You said you could kill the evil spirits without me, why are you crying now?

Chapter 356: Her usual image is just a disguise
Among this group of young men and women,

Lai Yuyao's personality is like a well-read book, and many people know her well.

Her willful, arrogant and domineering character,

Like a blazing and uncontrolled flame, it bared its teeth and claws wantonly in front of everyone,

Wherever it goes, it leaves burn marks of varying depths.

He always speaks directly, like a double-edged sword with a cold gleam.
There is no euphemism at all, and those words often hurt others inadvertently.
Not only does it hurt others, but sometimes it can also backfire on yourself.

The strange looks from the people around me were like dense needles, and the whispered discussions were like...
It was like a buzzing fly, lingering around Lai Yuyao.

How could she not notice it?
She felt like she had a little deer in her heart, feeling very nervous.

An awkward feeling quietly spread in my heart.
It was as if I was a fox who thought himself to be smart but whose tricks were seen through by others at a glance.

That feeling was so uncomfortable.

However, her face seemed to be wearing a well-crafted perfect mask.

There is no flaw at all, and the expression is just right.

No one could detect even the slightest emotional fluctuation in it.

In fact, Lai Yuyao's mind is as clear as a mirror.

When faced with those trivial matters,
She deliberately disguised herself as a willful and capricious young lady.
It's like carefully putting on a layer of armor covered with spikes.

This layer of armor seems to keep people away from it.
But it also cleverly helped her avoid a lot of unnecessary troubles.
Keep away those who have bad intentions or want to take advantage of her.

In fact, she is not the kind of rich second generation who is arrogant and ignorant.

That was just a protective color and a disguise for her to show to the outside world.

Sun Canxing stood quietly aside, his brows slightly furrowed, a thoughtful gleam in his eyes.

She seemed to have understood the reason why Lai Yuyao's attitude had changed so drastically.
Presumably, she knew the true identity of this mysterious figure Chu He.

Sun Canxing pondered secretly, and a barely perceptible bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It turns out that Lai Yuyao, who is usually arrogant and as proud as a queen, is a top second-generation rich man.

In the face of a position and power as strong as a towering mountain,
It will also be like a docile little lamb, lowering its head obediently and putting away its edge.

This dramatic scene is like a stone thrown into a calm lake.

A thousand waves were stirred in Sun Canxing's heart.

It was as if a blazing flame was burning deep in her pupils.

The temperature of the flames was like a prairie fire, with an unstoppable momentum.

It slowly burned in her eyes and spread, as if it was going to consume her entire soul.

In her opinion, this was the future he had always dreamed of.

Possess awesome power and status, become a figure like Chu He, for everyone to look up to.

"can."

Chu He's answer was concise and straightforward, without any hesitation.

It was as if he had already expected Lai Yuyao to make this request.

He nodded slightly and directly agreed to Lai Yuyao's request to sneak into the village together.

"Miss, no!"

Yu Yingjie's voice suddenly sounded, and his voice became a little hoarse due to anxiety.

His brows were tightly knitted together, his eyes full of worry and anxiety: "The village must be full of dangers. It's too early to go in now.

Even I can't guarantee that I can protect you!"

Yu Yingjie was carefully selected by Lai Yuyao's father.
The responsibility he shoulders is heavier than Mount Tai.

There is only one mission, which is to protect a rare treasure like
Protect Lai Yuyao's safety in all aspects.

In his world, Lai Yuyao's safety is his top priority.

Once there is any disturbance, even the slightest abnormality,

Or there is a danger approaching quietly that he cannot resist.
Yu Yingjie has the power to directly mobilize the local defense forces in Haitong City.

Moreover, this is only the first line of defense.
If the situation becomes critical, Lai Yuyao's father will immediately send other experts.

They came to reinforce like heavenly soldiers and generals.

Yu Yingjie's mind was as clear as a mirror.

He knew very well that the reason why he had such great power was because

There is only one reason, that is, Lai Yuyao is a rich girl.
She is like a delicate flower that cannot tolerate the slightest damage.

Her safety is of great importance and must not be threatened in any way.
Not even a strand of hair!

"It's okay, I'll go with him, he'll protect me."

Lai Yuyao pointed at Chu He as she spoke, her eyes revealing confidence.

She laughed secretly in her heart, as if she had heard a huge joke.

If even Chuhe can't protect himself, then in this vast world,

Where is there a safe place?

This is like a lonely boat on the sea.

If the Chu River is the incomparably solid harbor,
Everywhere else is just a dangerous shoal amidst the strong winds and huge waves.

However, Lai Yuyao also understood that
Yu Yingjie does not know Chu He's true identity.

That's why I'm so worried, running around like a headless fly.

"How is this possible?"

Yu Yingjie was really anxious now.

Beads of sweat the size of beans instantly appeared on his forehead and slid down his cheeks.

He could see that Lai Yuyao had made up her mind, her eyes were as firm as a rock.
Even nine cows could not be pulled back.

He knew very well that if Lai Yuyao really had an accident in the village,
Then he would be finished. He would definitely be in big trouble and an endless abyss would be waiting for him.

"Otherwise, I'll go with you."

There was a hint of pleading in Yu Yingjie's tone, hoping to change Lai Yuyao's mind.

"You should just sit here and take a rest.
By the way, please protect the safety of these lovely young people."

Chu He said, reaching out and gently patting Yu Yingjie's shoulder.

This blow seemed as light as a feather, but it was like a bolt from the blue.
Yu Yingjie was instantly struck by lightning.

In an instant, he felt a strange force rushing towards him like a surging tide.
It spread throughout the body instantly.

It seemed as if his body no longer belonged to him.

A numb and soft feeling wrapped around him like a vine.
It spreads from the fingertips all the way to the heart.

My legs went limp, like a pillar without support, and I couldn't stand up anymore.
With Chu He's support, he had no choice but to sit on the ground like a puddle of mud.

Yu Yingjie widened his eyes, filled with horror and disbelief.

I tried hard to open my mouth and say something, but my throat seemed to be blocked by something and I couldn't make a sound. Even breathing became difficult.

He felt as if a strong anesthetic had been injected throughout his body and he was completely unable to move.

Yu Yingjie was deeply shaken, as if a raging storm was rolling wildly in his mind.

It was a kind of fear of unknown power and despair of one's own powerlessness. He couldn't figure out how Chu He did it.
The gap in strength was like the distance between heaven and earth. It was so huge that it made him feel suffocated.

Could it be that Chu He has already become a powerful person at the level of an emperor?
Otherwise, the other party would never be able to deprive me of my ability to move so easily.

It's as easy as crushing an ant.

"In other words, when the young man wearing a black cap and a black mask suddenly approached the lady, it was he who caused me to be unable to move?"

Yu Yingjie secretly guessed in his heart,

The thought circled in his mind like a ghost, making him feel that Chu He was even more unfathomable.

"He...he won't be in any trouble, right?"

Lai Yuyao asked with some concern, her eyes showing a hint of concern.
After all, Yu Yingjie was the one who had always protected her.

She didn't want Yu Yingjie to get hurt because of this incident.

“This state will last about ten minutes, and then it will return to normal.

Young man, you better behave yourself. If your rash actions expose us,
Staying in the village might bring your young lady danger that is difficult to resolve.

You should be able to feel that there is something weird about the whole village.

If a powerful person at the King level acts on his own, you might end up getting yourself into trouble."

Although Chu He was wearing a black mask, Yu Yingjie could clearly feel that

The other person was smiling, but there was a hint of threat in that smile.

In his eyes, it was like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, making people shudder.

Yu Yingjie was extremely anxious at this moment, like an ant on a hot pan.

You know, Lai Yuyao's safety is closely linked to his life and property!
If anything happens to Lai Yuyao,

He couldn't imagine what a miserable end he would face.
That would definitely be an ending a million times more terrifying than death.

However, he was like a trapped beast that had been drained of its strength, unable to do anything.
They could only watch as Chu He and Lai Yuyao prepared to leave and sneak into the dangerous Xia Shui Village.

His eyes were full of anxiety and helplessness, and that look seemed to burn two holes in Chu He's back.

"Teacher, I want to go with you too."

Sun Canxing ran over quickly, with a determined light in his eyes: "I want to train myself."

There was a longing in her voice, a yearning for strength and growth.

Lai Yuyao wanted to say something.
For example, rejecting Sun Canxing. After all, this operation is full of dangers, and one more person means one more risk.

But when she looked at Chu He's expression, she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

When those bright eyes looked at Sun Canxing, they were full of resentment.

She muttered to herself,
I really don't know why Sun Canxing is so lucky.

She was clearly in a desperate situation, but she was extremely lucky and got on board the super ship Chuhe.

With the blessing of Chuhe, let alone a mere Haitong City,
Even if it's the entire Blue Planet, I'm afraid it can be walked sideways.

Humph, that's really enviable.

"Then let's go together."

As Chu He spoke, he placed his hands on Sun Canxing and Lai Yuyao's shoulders, one on the left and one on the right.

In an instant, the three people disappeared into thin air like ghosts.
No trace was left, as if they had never appeared here.

The other young men and women were all dejected at this moment.
Like a puppet with its soul taken away.

Just today, the martial arts exam just ended.

With excitement and joy of graduation,

Came here non-stop for the graduation party.

At that time, they were like a group of happy little birds.

I was looking forward to a wonderful gathering, but I never expected that
What greeted them was such a horrible nightmare.

They ran headlong into the evil spirits, as if they were trapped in an endless swamp.

The more I struggle, the deeper I sink. Now I am in a dilemma.

Every young face is filled with deep fatigue.
It was a combination of physical and mental fatigue.

Many young people don't care whether the ground is dirty or not.

He just lay down and curled up, like a wounded little animal looking for a sense of security.

Some people, at night, in this quiet and terrifying atmosphere, began to miss their families.
They sobbed quietly, trying to suppress their voices.
The suppressed crying sound echoed in the night sky, adding a bit of desolation.

They didn't notice at all that Chu He, Sun Canxing and Lai Yuyao had suddenly disappeared.

Even the young and strong men who were guarding this group of young people did not notice this unusual situation.

……

As the group of young men and women attending the graduation party left Xiashui Village,

In addition, the other villagers were also driven back to their homes by the village chief Chang Baining.
Xia Shui Village returned to peace again.

The solar street lights are still shining, but the light seems so weak.

Like a candle in the wind, it may go out at any time.

I don't know if it's always like this, or if it's affected by some mysterious force.
The dim lights swayed in the night, casting an even more eerie atmosphere on the entire village.

"Can we just walk down the village road in a swaggering manner?"

Sun Canxing asked a little nervously, her eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, as if countless pairs of eyes were spying on them in the darkness.

"The villagers of Xiashui Village probably won't come out to wander around tonight."

Lai Yuyao said nonchalantly,

She walked on the right side of Chu He, her eyes looking around like a smart little deer: "They have to prepare for the very important sacrificial ceremony tomorrow, so they must have a good rest tonight..."

Before she could finish her words, she heard strange noises coming from a house.

The sound seemed particularly abrupt in the silent night, as if someone was carefully moving something.
It also sounded like someone was talking in a low voice, but I couldn't hear what they were saying.

It was obvious that the people in the room were not sleeping, but doing something sneaky.

"There's some movement over there. I suggest going over to check out the situation."

Lai Yuyao said.

She remembered that Chang Baining had said that the villagers should go back to their homes to prepare for tomorrow's sacrificial ceremony.

But this is such a strange village, the sacrificial rituals here must be different from those in other places.
The things prepared must be extraordinary.

"Why do you think so?" Sun Canxing asked, frowning with confusion in his eyes.

"The things that need to be prepared for ordinary sacrificial ceremonies are very common, such as fruits, incense and candles."

Lai Yuyao replied, "But Chang Baining asked them to prepare tonight, and he already knew that something unusual had happened, but he still asked the villagers to prepare. Isn't this enough to explain the problem?"

After hearing this, Chu He nodded in appreciation, thinking to himself that this girl is a promising talent worth cultivating, as she is thoughtful and observant.

Sun Canxing was surprised. He looked at Lai Yuyao as if he met her for the first time.

This is completely different from the willful and capricious young lady she knew.
It seems that her usual image is just a disguise.

"Then let's go over and check it out." Sun Canxing also agreed with Lai Yuyao's suggestion.

Chu He once again placed his hands on the shoulders of Sun Canxing and Lai Yuyao.
The two of them only felt a flash before their eyes, and the next second,
They had disappeared from the spot, as if they were instantly swallowed up by the darkness.
