The cluster of log houses came to an end.
The river flows down from a pond, forming a small waterfall about two meters high.
The waterfall above the pond has a ponytail shape, rushing down from a location on the waist of the Juzhu Mountain, and the sound is not very loud, without the roar of waterfalls I have seen before.
Qiyaoyao walked to the right side of the pond, where there was a spacious clearing, one side facing the mountain wall, and the other looking towards the town.
The sobbing grew louder, piercing the night sky!
Originally, Qiyao's body had turned green before, and the dominant soul in her nightmare also turned green. However, after that, she was sealed and had never demonstrated her strength.
A thick mist of green enveloped Qiyao around, completely shrouding her!
At that moment, in the center of the clearing, a symbol suddenly appeared!
The symbol was astonishingly large, covering the entire surface of the clearing, dense and intricate like a spider web.
Qiyao just happened to be in front of the clearing before, and the instant the symbols appeared, the green mist was burned by them, dispersing like melting ice!
Exposed Qiyao's body without a head, become terrifying beyond all compare, she was covered with fine wounds, the neck position has been broken by force, and also exposed a half-length of bone!
"Give it back to me!"
"Give it back to me!"
The scream echoed through the night sky!
"Come back!" Old Gong shouted in alarm!
However, it was too late. Qiyao suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the center of the symbol!
Bang! A dull thud!
Qiyao's headless body slammed into the center of the symbol, causing the runes to become dazzlingly bright instantly.
In the next instant, white smoke surged wildly.
Qiyao was gone.
I only felt a heavy weight on my shoulder. With a brief glance over my shoulder, I saw a twisted backbone and an uneven neck.
Qiyao landed on my back, then disappeared without a trace...
My parents naturally saw this scene as well, and they looked frightened.
I didn't have any unusual movements, and I didn't find anything strange. After all, Qiyao is living on me, so in a sense, I am a living host for her. It is normal for her to return after suffering injuries.
Old Gong was constantly licking his lips, his eyes darting around, and he was muttering something incoherently.
After a moment, when the runes settled down, everything seemed as if it had never happened.
"Her family is here," I shook my head, with a somewhat complex expression.
"it's been plowed over and sealed. There's something beneath this symbol." Old Gong finally managed to articulate his thoughts clearly.
"Is it a head?" my mother murmured.
"Yes," my father nodded, but then his face suddenly tightened, and he said, "Let's go!"
Taking a step, he immediately started walking towards the base of Juzhu Mountain.
The clearing itself is adjacent to the foot of the mountain, and the pond is even closer to the base.
I also realized the oddity and followed him immediately, while my mother's reaction was even faster.
The three of us arrived at the foot of the mountain in an instant. There were many trees here, with extensive root systems. Some had grown directly on the mountain wall, and several large banyan trees were very lush, with their roots hanging down very long, just enough to obscure our view.
Just as we hid our figures, we saw three people running in a hurry from the direction of the path.
Under the moonlight, we could clearly recognize that these were three Taoists, their robes blown by the wind with a stern look on their faces.
The wind was blowing in our direction, allowing us to hear one of them speak in a deep voice: "The rune array is moving abnormally, and the grievance rises to the sky. Is something wrong here?"
The other two were extremely vigilant and immediately entered the clearing to inspect carefully.
"Quel Master, the rune array itself has no signs of being attacked, but the external negative energy is very strong. It should be a ghost. We rashly entered here to trigger it. Its soul should be scattered, even if it gathered in some place, it should be in disarray and not dare to get close again." A Taoist voice is slightly clear.
The other Taoist beside him also nodded.
Outside the clearing, the one who spoke first, known as Master Que, said in a deep voice, "No matter what, we must report this to the elders. This rune array is not ordinary; it cannot be treated lightly. You should check it again carefully."
The two in the clearing immediately crouched down, as if they were feeling the ground.
After a considerable amount of time, they finally left the clearing. The three stood in one place, whispered a few words, and then walked back towards the path they came from.
"Without a head, the young woman died here. It's possible that her head is suppressed here."
"Those Taoists at Juzhu Mountain have done a bad thing," Old Gong shouted, stretching his neck.
I also see the possibility.
But why would people from Juzhu Mountain kill Qiyao?
The Taoists here are not those corrupt and evil sects from Tian Shou Taoist Temple. It's not very likely that they would commit the crime of wanton killing of the innocent.
Killing people and destroying land, placing runes to seal the area, and there is only Qiyao's head buried underground?
No, that's not right.
Qiyao's main soul is here in me, and the thread separated by Lao Qin's head is under the control of Epidemic Hell.
Even if a remnant of the soul in the head were to regenerate, there would be no need to resort to such grand measures to deal with it...
That means there are even more fierce corpse ghosts below!
Qiyao was innocent, but she was caught in the crossfire?
Or, is there some connection between their family and the corpse ghost?
I instantly analyzed these things in my mind.
Just then, I felt a lightness on my body, and Qiyao appeared again, dashing towards the clearing!
"Come back!" I exclaimed in alarm, shouting immediately.
But Qiyao didn't pay any attention to me.
Suddenly, my father shot out like an arrow, his aura changing abruptly. He grabbed Qiyao's shoulder and tried to pull her back.
For me, this is very difficult.
My skills are all about suppression, which is harmful to corpse ghosts, and it's hard for me to act.
Thankfully, my father responded in time, and his methods were much better.
However, a sudden change occurred, and a mist of green spread out from Qiyao's body...
My father disappeared...
"Muye!" My mother's face changed dramatically.
"The Infernal Court has opened. The angry young woman without a head!" Old Gong shouted in fear.
As I saw my mother was going to rush in, I immediately grabbed her and whispered: "It's okay!"
The nightmare infernal prison is indeed terrifying.
However, Qiyao is not capable of harming my father. After her main soul merged with the remnant soul of the corpse immortal, her attitude towards me became very clear.
She doesn't want anyone to interfere with what she's doing right now!
My mother struggled to stop, her eyes especially restless.
I didn't have time to stop her, Qiyao rushed onto the clearing once again!
A loud, painful and wailing scream echoed across the clearing, followed by the sudden burst of rune light!
She suddenly dispersed and vanished. This time, when she returned to me, in addition to the wounds on her body, she kept bleeding continuously.
Of course, this blood is generated by negative energy and does not stain my clothes, and it disappears quickly.
At the same time, Qiyao disappeared as well.
My father appeared, standing in the position where he had previously vanished. For a moment, he seemed confused, as if he had just woken up from a dream.
In the next moment, my father snapped out of it and was about to walk towards us.
At this moment, three figures, as if streams of light, rushed quickly from their previous positions!
They encircled my father instantly!
At that moment, Lao Gong disappeared without a trace!
The three surrounded my father, their gazes alternating between alertly watching him and vigilantly looking in our direction.
My father's actions, combined with the fact that neither I nor my mother had deliberately hidden ourselves, led them to directly face the position we were in.
