After reading through the book, I found out that I am the prototype of the protagonist

Jiang Xiusi had quickly reached out to grab the little beast, and the old man was so frightened that he hurriedly said, "Be merciful!"

That hand was as fast as lightning, but it was also extremely quick to move. It just held it by the back of the neck and backed away to prevent it from biting Xi Ye.

Strangely, the beast whimpered and didn't struggle very much. His two bright black eyes were fixed on Xi Ye, with tears flickering faintly.

Xi Ye herself was quite frightened, but seeing this little thing in such a state, her heart softened unconsciously.Thinking of the way it was so intimate with him just now, he pleaded aloud: "It should be playing with me."

Even though it opened its mouth just now, the way it bared its fangs is really frightening.

Jiang Xiusi's face was calm, and after hearing what he said, he put the gadget on the ground.The white and soft ball immediately swayed its short tail, rushed towards Xi Ye, kissed his ankle flatteringly, and licked that piece of skin until it was dripping wet.

Xi Ye was both itchy and helpless, couldn't help laughing, squatted down and rubbed its head, and said, "It doesn't mean anything malicious."

The rest of the people stared at the little beast intently, and were a little relieved after hearing what he said.Jiang Xiusi and Lin Xi both set their sights on the old man.

The old man sighed softly when he saw the puppy's playfulness, and said with emotion: "This little guy, I haven't been this happy for a long time."

After saying that, he continued: "Who are you guys? Forgive me, but I haven't seen anyone in this village for a long time."

Jiang Xiusi explained why he came here, but he didn't reveal his identity as the suzerain, he only said that he was from the Tianyuan sect.There was some respect in the eyes of the old man, but he was not too surprised. Obviously, the disciples who came here before could not bring the village back to peace. Let’s move to the humble house first. I’m old and incapable, it’s Wu Ling, the village head of Four Nights Village.”

Jiang Xiusi nodded and asked him to lead the way.

At this time, Xi Ye screamed again.It turned out that the little dog was unwilling to be lonely, and bit his ankle again.

Lin Qi frowned, and hurriedly asked, "Are you okay?"

The puppy withdrew its mouth after biting it, and instead of running away, it just stared at the place blankly.Lin Xi also glanced at that place, where the skin was smooth and clean, not even a tooth mark was left, let alone bleeding.

He couldn't help laughing, and said to Village Chief Wu: "This little dog is so naughty, but he still knows how to behave."

As soon as the words fell, the little thing rushed towards Xi Ye again, bit the place just now, and then went to another place, biting the skin here, biting the skin there, making Xi Ye uneasy, but there was nothing left scars.

Seeing them having fun, Lin Qi envied them, but Village Chief Wu frowned tightly.He yelled "Come back!" several times, but the puppy remained indifferent.Even when the village head approached, it jumped on Xi Ye desperately.

Xi Ye had no choice but to hug it, but when he hugged it, his wrist was bitten again.The little thing kept biting the skin on his wrist, and his movements looked very fierce.

Village head Wu was worried, and said: "This guy is usually depressed, and he never has much contact with outsiders, and he doesn't know why he is crazy today. Young master, can you still bear it?"

Xi Ye shook his head, he felt very strange, although he was a little surprised, this puppy made him feel very close.He laps it indulgently with one hand, letting it bite, while stroking its head with the other, hoping to calm it down. "It doesn't hurt very much. I just don't know if it is like this, is it trying to tell me something?"

Village Chief Wu pondered for a moment, then said: "Four Nights Beast is loyal, and usually stays with its master all its life. Seeing that the young master is similar in age to its previous master, it must have brought back memories of it."

It turned out that this puppy with four spots of black ink on its forehead was called Siye Beast.

The four of them walked to Village Chief Wu's house, getting to know the village better along the way.Four Nights Village has a tradition of raising Four Nights Beasts since ancient times. Whenever a child is born in the village, the elders in the family will choose a young Four Nights Beast for the child to grow up with.

The lifespan of the Four Night Beasts is about 20 years, that is, when the children grow up, they will soon leave the world.Often the first test of the adult world that teenagers face is sending away their closest and most beloved companions.

Hearing this, Xi Ye couldn't help gently stroking the little thing that was still lying on his shoulder.It had just had a good time, gnawing and biting at him, but it was exhausted after a while.Although it doesn't look old on the outside, it is already considered a very old four-night beast.

Being touched by Xi Ye, it slightly raised its eyes, which were wet and pitch black.There was a faint snort in its nasal cavity, it closed its eyes again, and gently rubbed its head against him.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xi felt a little sad.

They also knew about the series of strange things that happened to Four Nights Village.

At first, there were a few children who were always crying in the middle of the night for some reason, and the crying sound was particularly shrill and strange. Gradually, all the children started crying, and the whole village was restless in the middle of the night.

Later, the mental state of young people began to deteriorate.Maybe it's because of lack of sleep. In short, they often fall into a daze halfway through work, not understanding the importance of what they are doing, tears streaming down, and suddenly waking up without knowing why they are crying.

A gloomy atmosphere gradually enveloped the entire village.Older people have also become more lazy, they no longer want to go out and stay indoors all day.

Walking, they have completely entered the village.The sun had also risen, and the red light poured straight down, the treetops were lit up, and the ravines on the houses were clearly discernible.Still no smoke.

Lin Xi felt a little cold, and subconsciously moved behind Jiang Xiusi.But it seems that there is no wind again.

In a few words, no one can guess the reason why this village has become like this.When Wu Ling finished speaking and didn't get an answer, he just smiled slightly, and the few wrinkles under his eyes looked very calm.When he told all this, he didn't seem very worried. He nodded at Jiang Xiusi understandingly, and invited the elders to enter the room.

Lin Xi noticed that there was not much dirt on the road they walked along, but after a storm last night, the ground was covered with dead branches and leaves.Village head Wu's front door is very clean.

The room was very quiet, with simple and unadorned furnishings. There was a small wooden niche in the center near the wall, and there was an unknown tablet.In addition to the incense burner, there is also a plate of strange-looking... probably pastries on the table.

Wu Ling asked them to sit down, and she approached there slowly.With a smile on his face, he said: "Look, the house is a little lively today."

After speaking, he seemed to feel Lin Qi's doubts, and pointed to the pastry and explained: "This is the favorite food of the deceased wife. I made it into a peach blossom shape with glutinous rice. I made it out of shape." With a smile With a little self-deprecation.

Lin Xi shook his head lightly, looked at the glutinous rice cake that worked so hard and said, "Your Madam will like it."

There were a few jumping lights in Wu Ling's old eyes. He stared at the pastry for a moment, and then stretched out his hand to gently stroke the edge of the tablet.The incense should have been lit before going out, but now it was burned to the point where there was only a little smoke left, which slowly rose to around his eyes.

"I will make it beautiful on your next birthday." He said to the memorial tablet, narrowing his eyes mildly smoky.

Naturally, Jiang Xiusi couldn't sit still. He came to Four Nights Village to clear up the chaos, and asked some more questions before getting up to investigate the situation.Of course Lin Xi wanted to follow him.

And because Xi Ye was entangled by the four-night beast and was a little tired, he temporarily stayed at the village chief's house to rest.

Most people in the village stay behind closed doors. Occasionally, there are shops that are open, and the owners are just doing their unchanging work with tired eyes, and they don't even pay attention to strangers.The two walked and watched, but found nothing special, and walked along the outer circle of the village again.

There is a winding river near here, and the sound of the water is very soft.The trees on the bank are dense, and there are many leaves floating on the river, which can be called beautiful.

Lin Xi sighed silently, casually picked up a stone on the ground and threw it out.Whether as a modern person or a tiny monk, he couldn't see what caused the vision here.And the weird atmosphere in the village made him feel suffocated.

The sound of the stones on the water made him feel a little relieved.Just as he was about to pick up another one and throw it out, he heard a rhythmic "da——da" sound on the water surface. He saw a small bouncing pebble playfully wading across the river. Yang Qing threw more gracefully before.

Lin Qi tilted his head and looked at Jiang Xiusi.He was still playing with a thin stone in his hand, he also looked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

For a moment, Lin Xi regarded him as Jiang Xiusi in reality again.

Lin Qi coughed lightly, and asked, "Master, do you like... to be in vain?"

Jiang Xiusi said nothing, but looked away from him, and threw the stone in his hand again.This time, Lin Xi saw that the stone landed on the leaves of the river with every step, but bounced up again, crossed the river by stepping on the leaves, but did not sink the leaves.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Xi heard a low, muffled crash.

Then, from the opposite bank, a crack suddenly appeared, and then it exploded, and the gap grew wider and faster, splitting the river directly, dividing the water on both sides, until the dark river bed was exposed.

Lin Xi: "..."

Although he didn't know what the reason for this move was, he knew that Jiang Xiusi was not in vain.He just did a trick to split the river.

But if you split the river, you split the river, why are you so pretentious.Lin Xi was finally like himself in reality again, he loved to complain again, and he didn't realize that there was a layer of belated shame in his eyes.

Because the stone he threw at the beginning was simply an ironclad proof of embarrassment.Lin Xi stood up a little straighter, looked at Jiang Xiusi, determined to start over.

He is an actor, so what's the difficulty in acting with the surprise and surprise that should be there?His eyes were raised slightly, revealing a natural look, and he looked at Jiang Xiusi and said, "I knew that Master must be the same as I thought, and of course it couldn't be for nothing."

The teacher in the previous acting class said that there is a performance method related to occultism and psychology. When an actor bursts out with strong performance potential, everything about him, including language and movements, will make people confident.Even if the other party suspects himself, he will never have the slightest idea that "there is something wrong with this person in front of him".

But Jiang Xiusi smiled slightly, and didn't even let him go down the steps: "Well. Then what is my intention?"
