Bewitching

The night is deep, as if thick ink is splashed on the sky, it is endless black at a glance, occasionally there are stars shining faintly, and they are gradually swallowed by the twilight. .

The wind blows on the leaves, making a 'rustling' sound.In the village, the solitary lights reflect each other, and the night is lonely.On the contrary, in the unremarkable corner of the small courtyard of the Wei family, there was a bright fire.

Meng Qian squatted on a short wooden pier, holding a small wooden stick in his hand, watching Ji Xingchen burn something.

Most of the things in several large boxes are pasted with paper, which will catch fire if the ignition point is high.Ji Xingchen was impatient, seeing that the time was almost up, he threw most of the things into the fire.Those things glowed fiery red in the darkness, and ashes swirled and fell all around.

Holding a wooden stick, Meng Qian occasionally turned over the unburned things in the fire.The temperature difference between morning and night in this place is indeed quite large, but fortunately, he is close to the fire source so that it will not be too cold.

He was boredly watching the fire, when he suddenly sensed a cloud approaching, he squinted his eyes and looked into the house.

The door of Wei's house is a glass sliding door, and the outside of the yard is an iron gate.The place where they burn things is in the middle of the yard, some distance away from the doors on both sides, and the furnishings of the living room can be vaguely seen.

Ji Xingchen seemed to have a sense of it, threw away the set of dragon and phoenix coats he was about to burn, and looked up at the main entrance.

The living room was very dark, the lights were not turned on, and there was a faint figure shaking.Someone came down the stairs slowly, with slow steps, and if you didn't listen carefully, you couldn't hear the sound at all.

The glass sliding door was pulled open from the inside, and the pulleys rolled and made a harsh friction sound.A person came out slowly from the inside, his head was lowered, his figure was hidden in the night, and his appearance could not be seen clearly.

Meng Xi stared at the blurred figure of the man intently, and murmured: "Liu Chengren? No..."

'Yoo Seung In' wore an extraordinarily simple outfit, which was completely different from the hip-hop outfit in the morning.He took small steps, raised his feet gracefully, and slowly walked down the stairs at the door of the house.When going downstairs, the fingertips of the little fingers were slightly raised, and the behavior was quite weird.

He stopped in the middle of the flowerbed, about 10 meters away from the two of them, his whole body hidden in the darkness.

He kept his head down, making it hard to see his expression.

The burning flames made a 'beep' sound, and the wind gradually picked up, which was particularly desolate in this silent night, like the sound of a woman crying, miserable and desolate.

Meng Xi sensed that something was wrong, stood up and wanted to pull Ji Xingchen back to the left, but the opponent grabbed his wrist instead.Ji Xingchen's face was heavy, and he led him back quickly.

boom!

The fire pile burning underground made a loud noise, and sparks flew in all directions, and accompanied by the whistling wind, they suddenly exploded to the surrounding area. .

Meng Kui flipped his wrist reflexively, and directly protected Ji Xingchen behind him.The cardboard box and wooden block with sparks hit him hard on the back, he let out a muffled groan, and suddenly felt a burning pain in his back.

The fire was extinguished, and the surroundings fell into darkness for an instant, and I couldn't see my fingers when I stretched out my hands, and it was hazy.

Meng Qian frowned, lamenting again the fragility of this physical body, with both hands abruptly covering his back that was hit by the box, moving slowly, rubbing his wound cautiously and tentatively.

"You're stupid, don't hide back and rush in front of me!" The familiar tone was heard in the ear, trembling imperceptibly in this silent night.

"Yeah, I was frightened and stupid. I was in a daze for a while, so I didn't know the direction." Meng Xi had long been used to his aggressive tone. Rubbing his shoulder, he coaxed carefully, "It's okay, it's all paper, it doesn't hurt very much."

The shoulder on the right was slightly sunken, Ji Xingchen put his chin on his shoulder, and rubbed the place with his fingers unwillingly.

Meng Qian couldn't see the other person's expression clearly, and could only continue to coax him like a child as he could hear the man's shallow breathing.

"It doesn't hurt! Hey, pay attention to the time and place, there is a difficult guy behind!"

As soon as he finished speaking, "hee hee ha ha" laughter suddenly sounded in the distance, accompanied by sparse footsteps coming from all directions, absurd and weird.A gust of cold wind blew by, bitingly cold.

Ji Xingchen's face was gloomy, and the low temperature in the surrounding area instantly fell to the bottom of the ice.Meng Xi couldn't help shivering, a coat suddenly fell from the sky and covered his head, with Ji Xingchen's faint body temperature on the clothes.

Meng Qian glanced at him, saw that his expression was not good, and timidly swallowed the words in his mouth.According to his understanding of the brat, this guy is in a rage now, and he must not be messed with!

There are ghosts all around, as if someone is coming from all directions, trying to surround them.An unusual atmosphere flowed in the dead air, and the weird laughter stopped abruptly.

Suddenly, the sound of single drums, odd numbers, and suona came from outside the iron gate, playing the preface.

Drums and music are everywhere, like sorrow and joy.

Meng Xi was guarded by Ji Xingchen, and he leaned over to look outside while rubbing his back.I saw a red sedan chair floating on the dark path, followed by a group of people with strange expressions, walking towards Wei's house with frivolous steps. br

Ji Xingchen squinted his eyes, staring at the slowly approaching team with a murderous expression.

It was also the first time for Meng Xi to encounter this kind of 'custom'. He was a little bit tongue-tied watching the battle, and reminded, "They are all paper people."

The iron door opened automatically, and lifelike paper figurines poured in from the outside. They lined up in two rows, standing neatly at both ends of the stairs, slightly bent their knees, and saluted 'Liu Chengren' in unison.

The dark wind blows everywhere, blowing the big red car curtain.Meng Kui had sharp eyes and found a jade pendant in the sedan chair.Small and exquisite, the size of a palm.

On one side, there was a girl who looked like a paper figurine, supporting 'Liu Chengren', walking towards the two of them lightly.

'Liu Chengren' finally raised his head at this moment, his brows painted red.Meng Qian simply suspected that he had smeared two catties of flour on his face. When he walked, because of his swaying posture, the powder slag fell down with his movements.

"Walk on each side of the road facing the sky, everyone's well water does not violate the river water, how dare you destroy my Na Zheng!"

His tone was bad, his eyes were ferocious, and he spoke sinisterly as if pinching his throat, and his voice lingered in the empty surroundings.

Ji Xingchen's long and narrow phoenix eyes contained a seemingly murderous look, and he said sarcastically, "Nazheng? Have you asked the person for consent? If you are willing to marry, they may not be willing to marry!"

Wrapped in Ji Xingchen's clothes, Meng Qian poked his head out from behind, looked at Liu Chengren's grotesque appearance, and burst out laughing.After laughing, he found that the atmosphere was not right, he coughed lightly, and said solemnly: "It's not good for Liu Chengren if you pester him like this. He can't stand the erosion of the yin energy on your body, and he will die sooner or later. You are hurting him."

"Wouldn't it be better if he died, so he can come down to accompany me sooner!"

'Liu Chengren' had a green light in his eyes, and after finishing speaking with disdain, he narrowed his eyes and looked at their appearance.After a while, he frowned, raised his fingers and nodded towards Ji Xingchen, staring at him greedily like hooks.

"Oh, look carefully at the two young gentlemen, they are both handsome and extraordinary. I am the most easy-going person, and you can talk to me if you want me to let Liu Chengren go, why don't you marry me?"

After he finished speaking, he cast a wink at Ji Xingchen pretending to be coquettish, and said with a smile: "Little man, lady, I will count your fingers and watch your red luan star move. Let's choose a good day today, and we can get married in the hall." good?"

The surrounding paper figurines trembled sporadically, covering their mouths and giggling.

Meng Xi took a deep breath, and lit the candle for the courage of this female ghost to die.

Ji Xingchen's jaw was tense, he squinted his eyes, and looked condescendingly at Liu Chengren opposite, "Auntie, your proposal, I have to say, is really bad..."

Meng Xi only saw the illusory figure in front of him, and before he could react, he saw Ji Xingchen kicked up and kicked Liu Chengren hard on the crook of his leg.Liu Chengren knelt on the ground with a 'plop'.

He was stunned by the fall, raised his head and was about to speak with a ferocious face, when Ji Xingchen took out a pair of red chopsticks from his pocket, and clamped them on the middle finger of his left hand rudely.

The surrounding paper figurines screamed, and rushed towards Ji Xingchen with outstretched arms.Before he touched him, he was knocked aside by a body, and was crushed to the ground in a mess.

An ear-piercing scream came from the ground, and Meng Kui covered his ears and looked at the ghost underground with pity.I saw the female ghost who was originally possessed by Liu Chengren, now being pinned to the ground by a paper talisman, with black air bubbling from her body, like gossamer.

The demonic aura on Ji Xingchen's body gradually receded, and that mysterious power flourished, born wantonly.He blinked his thick eyelashes, stared coldly at the surrounding paper figurines, and the paper talisman in his hand ignited spontaneously.

"There are not many ways of Taoism. Nanshan manages this river and draws it into a single character to drive away all the demons in the world!"

As soon as the voice fell, golden lights suddenly burst out near Wei's house.The talismans that had been hidden in various places in the courtyard suddenly appeared in real form, breaking through the ghostly aura around them.

Before the countless paper figurines could howl, they instantly turned into ashes and dissipated in mid-air.

Meng Xi was startled by the aura, and took a step back quietly.Later, realizing that he is a human being now, he was relieved, but he was still far away from Ji Xingchen and did not dare to approach him.

It was also the first time he saw this guy showing off his power, and he rubbed his back with lingering fear. At this moment, the scene of him crossing the tribulation suddenly appeared in his mind, and he shrunk his neck in embarrassment.

Don't mess with it, absolutely don't mess with it!

The aura receded, and Ji Xingchen looked down at the female ghost at his feet.

The woman huddled into a ball, she didn't look like she was so proud just now, her whole body was shaking like sifting chaff.

Ji Xingchen lowered his eyes, and there was no warmth in his pale pupils.

"Nonsense."

"My lord, please spare me! The little girl didn't intend to harm anyone, she was just tempted, please forgive me!"

"Besides, I really didn't force him, he said he wanted to marry me!" The female ghost lay on the ground with tears in her eyes.She was crushed by Ji Xingchen's aura, and couldn't help crying loudly, half of her body gradually became transparent.
