The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

Chapter 175: Strange Things in the Theater (23)

The evil spirits in this city were just playing a game with them in order to increase the difficulty and satisfy some evil taste.

If they walked about one street further in, they would be near the stage. Being so close would probably be considered as "uninvited" and it was possible that the whole army would be wiped out. However, she had to complete the mission this time.

"That location..." Lin Yifeng looked around and thought for a moment, "I remember passing by here a few days ago when we were hunting ghosts. Although we thought the people on the street were very strange, we still asked a few people. It seems that this person has been standing here and has not moved."

Cui Ren glanced at the "traitor" and continued, "If it was him, we asked him. At that time, we asked if there was anything strange in the city, and he answered 'nothing unusual'. Then we asked him again 'why is there no sound in the city', and he still answered 'nothing unusual'."

"However, as to whether we can go to the theater, we didn't ask. We asked during the day. Now it's night time, so it's hard to say how he would answer," Lin Yifeng added.

"Where are the others? Are there any other clues?" Mu Hanxing took one last look at everyone.

Everyone shook their heads slightly and said everything they could think of.

Jingchen stroked his chin and thought for a while with a gloomy face. The information was still too little. Finally, he asked Mu Hanxing: "Shall I ask for you?"

"No, don't move, I'll go." Once she made a decision, she wouldn't regret it.

Although Jingchen trusted her, he still frowned and sighed: "Then you should be careful."

"Then I'll go with you." Feng Xiao still held her sleeve and refused to let go. His eyes were full of affection, which made her feel numb.

"Just take me with you." Su Miaoying said rationally, "If you can really ask, isn't it useless if you don't have anyone from Ning Country with you? Then how can you prove your identity that you can go?"

After weighing the pros and cons, perhaps it is really useless to let Jingchen and Fengxiao follow, and what Su Miaoying said is right.

This girl is really smart.

She took Su Miaoying's hand again and asked carefully, "You are right. It will be useful to take you with me. Have you thought about it? I am not sure if I can save you in the first time if you are in danger. There are too many emergencies here."

Su Miaoying's eyes were as calm as a cold pond. She nodded: "I have already decided to help. Take me with you."

"Okay, then the rest of you stay and take care of the people."

After deciding, Mu Hanxing took her and flew to the light source near the "White Belt". She asked the guard, "Excuse me, how do we get to the stage? We were invited here. She is from Ning Country."

After saying that, he pointed at Su Miaoying next to him.

The two held their breath, their bodies tensed, staring at the guard intently, only to hear the guard say in a calm voice: "Ning people? You can watch the show."

After saying that, the guard pointed in the direction of the stage.

Then he stopped talking and just stood there motionless.

Is this... the end? Mu Hanxing even had his sword ready, and had gathered a lot of spiritual energy, just waiting for him to jump up and stab someone, but unexpectedly, the guard was strangely calm and normal, which made people feel terrified.

"Shall we go over there?" Su Miaoying looked forward and saw that the stage was not far away.

Mu Hanxing was afraid that the wrong number of people might trigger danger, so he stood at a distance and gestured to Jingchen and the others, asking them to stay where they were, while he and Su Miaoying went to the stage.

Jingchen and the others received the signal and gestured back to her.

Then, she carried Su Miaoying on her back and started running towards the remaining light sources.

During this short walk, Su Miaoying on her back suddenly whispered to her, "Perhaps, all this is because I, a Ning countryman, came here uninvited... I came to the theater and provoked the fierce ghosts here. If I hadn't accidentally entered this place, none of this would have happened."

She was silent, and her heart was in turmoil.

Su Miaoying continued to speculate in a low voice, then smiled sadly: "Do you think this is possible? In the game rules set by the ghost, the Lan family can go to the opera because shadow puppetry is their thing, and they have this right, and the people of Ning can also go... The ghost deliberately lured all the people of Ning to the stage, making them think that it was a way to crack the problem, but in fact it was to annihilate all the people of Ning in one fell swoop."

Mu Hanxing was a little confused and asked her, "Do you know who the female ghost was that came into Xiaoli's dream in the middle of the night and wanted to kill you?"

Su Miaoying had already understood, she said: "It's Princess Lanqin."

Mu Hanxing had almost guessed it, and seeing that she was willing to talk, he continued to ask: "Can you tell me what the grudge is between you two?"

"Before that, can you listen to a few stories I want to tell you?" Su Miaoying said in a low voice.

She said patiently: "Okay, you tell me, I won't tell anyone else."

Perhaps because they were both women, or perhaps because she knew she was an immortal, Su Miaoying opened her heart and chatted with her.

She told her story.

The first maid who stayed with her was called Yue'er. When she was only six or seven years old, her parents took her to visit relatives in the countryside. Unexpectedly, they encountered robbers on the way. The robbers had been lying in wait for many days and knew that this was a wealthy family, so they chose a good opportunity to take out their swords and prepare to rob the car.

The Su family naturally brought thugs and guards with them. When the two groups met, they started fighting without saying a word.

There were flashes of swords and sabers outside the carriage. Yue'er held Su Miaoying in her arms. She was also terrified. The two girls, who were less than ten years old, hugged each other. When they heard the sound of a servant outside the carriage being pierced through the heart by a sword, they couldn't help crying.

Although Yue'er is still young, she knows her mission. She was lucky enough to be adopted by the Su family and no longer be a wandering beggar because of the young lady of the Su family, so she still mustered up the courage to hold Su Miaoying in her arms all the time to prevent her from getting hurt.

There was a fierce fight outside the carriage, with countless casualties among the robbers and servants. At this time, someone took advantage of the situation and tried to hijack the people in the carriage.

After a knife was inserted into the carriage, Su Miaoying screamed in fear when she heard the sound of the blade cutting through the carriage. Yue'er held back her tears, and withstood the fear and pushed Su Miaoying to the bottom, spreading her arms to protect the person under her. The robber saw that the little girl in front of him was obviously not a daughter of the Su family because of her tattered clothes, so he hacked Yue'er to death with one knife.

Yue'er's blood splattered on the inner wall of the carriage. Su Miaoying looked up and saw a strong smell of blood in the carriage. Yue'er fell in front of her with her eyes open.

……

"She was obviously the same age as me, such a small child, but she trembled and overcame her fear to save my life. If it weren't for her... I probably wouldn't have lived long. The robber killed Yue'er and then took me away. It happened that at that time, someone from the Su family's escort agency happened to pass by and saw the Su family's car being robbed, so they hurried over. The escorts rescued me in time... But Yue'er never survived. In fact, I always treated her as my sister." Su Miaoying said, and a tear flowed out and fell on Mu Hanxing's shoulder.
