Yuxiu really wanted to lie and say that he didn't hide anything, but under Huaishan's uninterrupted gaze, it seemed that a ball of cotton was stuck in his throat, making him unable to utter a word.

"Master..." Yuxiu opened her mouth, "I..."

At this moment, Jiang Fuci, who didn't know when to leave, hurried over, his expression was startled and frightened, and he said in a trembling voice, "Master, come quickly and have a look."

Huai Shan responded, took another deep look at Yu Xiu, then withdrew his gaze, turned around and followed Jiang Fuci away.

The coercion suddenly disappeared, and Yuxiu, who was tense, gradually relaxed. He let out a sigh of relief, and raised his hand to wipe his forehead, wiping the sweat from his hand.

Seeing this, the second senior brother who was not far away came over and said, "What were you and Master talking about just now? Look, you're scared."

Yuxiu shook her head, did not answer the second senior brother's question, but instead asked: "Second senior brother, will I come back to live here in the future? If I encounter monsters again, I can't handle it alone."

Second Senior Brother sighed: "It depends on Master's arrangement."

Yuxiu asked again: "Then if I meet a monster again, what should I do?"

"Just like what Master taught us, meditate on the spot and chant scriptures. Although we can't deal with monsters with our current abilities, we can protect ourselves." The second senior brother patted Yuxiu on the shoulder and comforted him, "You Don't be idle here, meditate and practice well, otherwise you will have to run away no matter how many times you encounter monsters."

Yuxiu suddenly realized, no wonder his two senior brothers often took him to meditate together when he was on the mountain, it turned out that meditating still had such an effect.

It's a pity that he didn't know the reason, and he became lazy from the day he went down the mountain.

The second senior brother seemed to see the embarrassment in Yuxiu's heart, and said softly, "Tell me the truth, since you moved here, have you neglected to meditate and practiced, lying in bed all day long?"

Yuxiu touched her nose: "..."

I have to say that the second senior brother guessed right, except for eating and bathing and offering incense to the evil god once a day, he would lie on the bed unmoved.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gained weight under such circumstances.

But it wasn't because he was afraid of disturbing the evil god by walking around!

"You..." The second senior brother shook his head helplessly, and said, "If you don't work hard, be careful that the master will criticize you again, and the lesson from the night before yesterday is not enough?"

Speaking of what happened the night before, the second senior brother felt fortunate more than once that he almost never saw this little junior brother.

Yuxiu lowered her head and whispered a word of apology.

"Okay, master is busy, ask me more about things you don't understand in the future, after all, life and death are at stake, so give me more snacks." The second senior brother gave some instructions, and then pulled Yuxiu towards the crowded place .

Originally, Jiang Fuci said to fill in the hole in the corner, but he wanted to see what was behind the wall on a whim, so he ordered the servants to make the hole bigger before doing it.

They squatted at the entrance of the cave and looked out, and saw a pair of feet lying quietly on the ground.

Originally, the outside was also part of the Jiang Mansion, but later this courtyard was used to worship evil gods, and the people who lived around it gradually moved out.

Until now, everyone has moved to the west side of the courtyard. As for the north side of the courtyard, it is all empty and reduced to wasteland.

People from Jiangfu dare not even come to this remote courtyard, let alone bypass this courtyard to go further north.

But what about those feet?

Several people, including Jiang Fuci, were terrified and looked back at Huaishan anxiously.

Although no one spoke, they all understood that those feet definitely did not belong to a living person, and no living person dared to lie silently near the evil god's courtyard.

Huaishan bowed his waist, stared at those feet for a while, and said to the elder brother: "Yujie, drag that person in to have a look."

"Okay." The elder brother raised his sleeves, passed through Jiang Fuci and several servants, then got through the hole and grabbed the person's feet and dragged the person in.

As the man was dragged in from the cave by the elder brother, an unpleasant rancid smell floated in the air.

After seeing clearly the person dragged in by the elder brother, everyone present gasped, and the younger servant turned around abruptly, leaning on the wall and retching in pain.

Even Yuxiu, who was standing at the edge of the crowd, felt extremely uncomfortable seeing this scene.

It turned out to be a corpse with no upper body.

It is now a hot summer, and the whitened wounds of the corpse are covered with maggots, and flies are hovering around the corpse.

This scene is so disgusting...

More importantly, there was a corpse without upper body lying just across the wall from the house where he lived. Thinking that she had lived here for almost a month, Yuxiu suddenly shuddered.

Only Huaishan remained unchanged, and took a closer look, frowning and said: "The wound is uneven, and there are mostly bite marks on it. This person's upper body should have been eaten."

As for what was eaten, Huaishan didn't say in detail.

Hearing this, the complexions of Jiang Fuci and several servants turned pale again.

Soon, a servant seemed to recognize the identity of the corpse: "Master, master, this person seems to be Ah Zhu who is serving by the fourth master's side!"

"Yes, it's Ah Zhu!" Another servant also said, "Five or six days ago, Ah Zhu was tormenting the fourth master in the kitchen. I saw that Ah Zhu was wearing the same clothes. Afterwards, Ah Zhu cooked the medicine and left. , it was that afternoon that everyone around Fourth Master was looking for Ah Zhu."

Hearing the words "Fourth Master" and "Ah Zhu", Jiang Fuci's face even started to twitch, he clenched his fists suddenly, but said in a weak tone: "Go and invite the people around Fourth Master, confirm Let’s take a look at this person’s identity, if it’s really A’Zhu, find a place to bury him outside the residence.”

The servant closest to Jiang Fuci responded repeatedly, and ran away scrambling.

Not long after, the servant brought a young man over, and the young man endured his nausea to confirm the identity of the corpse, it was A'Zhu.

Throughout the day, people came and went in and out of the courtyard, first they were busy disposing of A'Zhu's body, then they were busy checking whether there were other things behind the wall, and finally they filled the hole in the corner.

Now, the news of the accident in the courtyard could no longer be suppressed.

Everyone didn't know that a monster appeared the night before, but they thought that the evil god had started killing people again, and even ate the upper body of the corpse cruelly.

It seemed that the evil god was really angry. The bloody smell that filled the yard yesterday was a warning from the evil god.

Although they don't know why the evil god is angry...

As the sun went down, the servants packed up their things and prepared to leave without caring about reinforcing and thickening the wall after filling the hole in the corner.

Seeing this, Yuxiu hurriedly followed behind.

Unexpectedly, he was suddenly stopped by Jiang Fuci before he reached the gate.

"Little Master, I will trouble you here from now on." Jiang Fuci's face was bloodless, and his pale face was reflected a little strangely by the light of Huo Shaoyun. Although he said it politely, he did not block Yuxiu's way Not polite.

Yuxiu was a little dazed, looked at the servant in front of him who was running out without turning his head, and then at Jiang Fuci, he asked, "Is this my master's order?"

Jiang Fuci smiled with the corners of his mouth pulled: "This is my order."

"Where's my master?" Yuxiu frowned, and couldn't help feeling a little wary, "What did my master say?"

I knew that he should have left with Huaishan and his two senior brothers in the afternoon. At that time, Mr. Jiang told him to stay and told him that he had something to tell him, so he stayed until now.

Jiang Fuci obviously saw what Yuxiu was upset about, and he suddenly took a step closer.

Yuxiu was startled, and reflexively took a step back.

Jiang Fuci stared at Yuxiu, and said in a low voice: "Little master, now we are all grasshoppers tied to a rope, my decision is naturally your master's decision, instead of thinking about how to move out, you should think about it." How can you appease the evil god, if the evil god gets angry, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, you will not be able to escape his anger."

Jiang Fuci's ravine-covered face was immersed in the light and shadow of the setting sun, his eyes were slightly stared, and his expression looked particularly ferocious at this moment.

It was the first time for Yuxiu to see Jiang Fuci with this appearance, he was surprised, but inevitably frightened, he opened his mouth in a daze: "But there are monsters here, it's not safe."

"That wall has been repaired, and I will send someone over to reinforce it in the next few days." Having said that, Jiang Fuchi paused, and his tone suddenly became strange, "Besides, the evil god will protect you, won't it?"

Yuxiu was dumbfounded.

In fact, he has not figured out why the evil god let him go the night before yesterday.

But Jiang Fu gave him the answer: "Perhaps to the evil god, you are very special."

After Jiang Fuci left, he did not forget to ask the servant to close the heavy wooden door.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Yuxiu had no choice but to go back to the hut where he lived before even though he was reluctant in his heart. When he was walking back, he passed by the house with the red lanterns hanging on it.

The house was bathed in the fiery red light, and the shadows falling on the ground were stretched very long. It looked lonely and lonely, as if it had been frozen in time, only the incense candles on the tribute platform in front of it were wafting wisps of smoke.

Yuxiu lowered her head, and wanted to run forward quickly, but suddenly he remembered what Jiang Fuci said just now, and by some coincidence, he changed direction.

He walked to the tribute platform, carefully burned three sticks of incense, and bowed in the direction of the hut.

"Master Xie, thank you for saving me the night before yesterday." Yuxiu closed her eyes and said reverently, "I can't repay you, I just hope that I can help you when you are in trouble."

Regardless of the evil spirit's intentions, he did kill the monster and let Yuxiu go.

Even if the evil god killed so many people before, even if the evil god ate that monster in such a terrifying way, even that Azhu might have been killed by the evil god... At least at this moment, Yuxiu is sincerely thanking the other party .

Thank you for saving your life.

After he finished chanting in his heart, he opened his eyes and was caught off guard by a snow-white face.

Yuxiu's shoulders trembled violently, almost screaming, but fortunately he held back in time.

Taking a closer look, it wasn't a snow-white face at all, but a snow-white mask, on which the facial features were outlined with a few strokes of black ink.

I don't know if it was Yuxiu's illusion, but he could see the aura of indifference from the stick figure's facial features.

Yuxiu swallowed with difficulty, only then belatedly realized that the evil spirit had not only appeared again, but had also quietly come before him when he was burning incense.

He froze in place, with his palms clasped together. If he was a cat, all the fur on his body would explode.

After a long while, he survived the panic state that was almost fainting, and barely squeezed out two words from his throat: "My lord."

Hearing the words, the evil god nodded slightly.

"..." Yuxiu was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out, he even thought that he had misread it, that the evil god actually nodded to him?

omg...

He always thought that the evil god was incapable of human reason, so he didn't know that the evil god could still respond to his greetings.

Seeing that the evil god didn't react further, Yuxiu stuck in place like a log.

The weather was still hot and unbearably hot at night, but in front of the evil god, Yuxiu could only feel the chill seep into her bones.

He suspected that if this stalemate continued, he would really faint.

Fortunately, before he fainted, the evil god spoke: "Who are you?"
