Chapter 132

The two maids helped Yao Wanning wipe her face and hands, and she didn't wake up even after such a toss.

It wasn't until Yao Wanning was served and lay down on the bed that Yao Shouning heaved a sigh of relief.

Qing Yuan and the others poured out the washing water, and then poured hot water for Yao Shouning to wipe her body again. Since she was not in her own room, she only did a simple scrub, changed her clothes, and sat on the side of the bed.

The two maids also went to clean up and wash themselves. Before Dong Kui came back, Yao Shouning moved the calligraphy and paintings of Liu Bingzhou sent by Fengchun to the bedside, and took them apart to read one by one.

What made her feel a little disappointed was that after dismantling five or six volumes, these calligraphy and paintings did not contain any magic, they were just ordinary calligraphy and paintings.

There are still a few volumes left, but Yao Shouning always feels that there may not be what he wants in these remaining calligraphy and paintings.

As Liu Shi said, Liu Bingzhou made it clear back then that there was probably only that one scroll that she wanted to hang up high, and that was the only one that could deter evil spirits.

"Ugh……"

She sighed, and at this moment, Mallow finally came back.

The room was deserted. When she came in, she looked around curiously. Seeing Yao Wanning who was sleeping soundly on the bed, she asked:
"Where are Qing Yuan and Sister Bai Yu?"

"They cleaned up and washed, and they probably won't come over later."

Yao Shouning replied to her.

The rooms of the two maids are not far from Yao Wanning, so it is convenient to take care of her daily life.

Most of the time, her room would not be separated from others, and one of them would always sleep with her. Because Yao Shouning stayed here tonight, the two of them had a moment of free time, probably to go to wash themselves.

Yao Shouning didn't take it seriously, and asked her:

"Have you got it?"

"got it."

Mallow nodded, and took out a short knife from her cuff:

"When I was going to look for Uncle Zheng, I found that he had already wrapped the quilt and was guarding the gate of the inner courtyard. He said that he would not sleep tonight and had to guard it himself."

It seemed that Zheng Shi also felt that something was wrong tonight. Although he couldn't see evil spirits, his military career had given him a premonition that was different from ordinary people, so he didn't need any extra instructions, and he had already made plans to watch the night tonight. .

Yao Shouning nodded, motioned for her to put the knife at the end of the bed, and urged her to wash up quickly.

It was foggy outside, and she ran back and forth. At this time, her hair and eyebrows were all wet, and there was water at the end of her skirt.

The rain is about to come, Yao Wanning's room is very dangerous, the more people stay, the more likely something will happen.

But Mong Kui was not in a hurry. Seeing the paintings and calligraphy scattered on the ground, she knelt down to clean them up and asked:
"Is this from my wife?"

Yao Shouning gave a soft 'hmm'.

She was busy dismantling the painting, anxious to find something useful to ward off the evil, and had no time to clean it up.

At this time, when Mallow came, she helped to roll up the paintings. She moved swiftly, and quickly finished the two scrolls and tied the silk rope again. There was a soft popping sound from the wick of the lamp.

The light flickered for a moment, fell into a brief darkness at first, and then turned on again.

'Whoo--'

The outside wind blew across the courtyard, lifting the hanging heavy curtains, and a strong night wind mixed with moist mist poured in, and the two rolled picture scrolls thrown at Mallow's feet couldn't help being blown several times.

The cold wind made Yao Shouning shiver.

'Ah. '

On the contrary, Mallow suddenly opened his mouth and yawned, rubbed his eyes, and murmured involuntarily:

"Why do you suddenly feel sleepy?"

Yao Shouning tightened her shoulders, her attention was all on tearing down the painting, when she heard what Dong Kui said, she instinctively replied:
"If you feel sleepy, go to wash up and go to bed earlier, and I will clean up the paintings on the floor later."

After saying this, she picked up another picture scroll and opened it, and was a little disappointed to find that there was only an ink lotus painting on it. There was a vivid drop of water on the lotus leaf, and there were two vivid koi below.

The painting is simple and elegant, but it's a pity that it doesn't have the slightest aura, and there is no golden light bursting out, so it doesn't have the power to suppress demons.

But at the moment of her disappointment, she seemed to realize that something was wrong. With a chill, she moved the picture scroll in front of her, and looked in the direction of Mallow——

After she finished talking with Mong Kui, Mong Kui did not respond. She looked intently at this moment, but saw Mong Kui sleeping on the ground at some point, holding a half-rolled painting in her hand, and she was so sleepy that she couldn't wake up.

Yao Shouning was so shocked that he flicked the scroll in his hand out of the corner of his eye, but saw that the drops of water on the lotus ink were not only lifelike, but they had clearly come to life, and began to roll back and forth on the canvas.

At first Yao Shouning thought it was because of his nervousness, but after he took a deep breath and took a closer look, he found that it was not a hallucination.

The drop of water on the lotus leaf is indeed 'alive', rolling on the leaf, and it is about to flow into the water.

This kind of "movement" is different from the "movement" of Liu Bingzhou's chaotic strokes seen on the carriage that day. Although the painting was chaotic, the handwriting was reorganized and the golden light shone. suppress evil spirits;

At this time, the 'movement' of this painting has a strange and mysterious feeling. While the picture is vivid, a sense of fear arises from the bottom of my heart.

Strange things happen, evil spirits come!
The sound of water flowing 'crashing la la' rang in Yao Shouning's ears, and the sound became louder and louder.

Without saying a word, she threw away the scroll in her hand, and picked up the last unopened painting on the ground.

"I'm sorry, grandfather!"

With this thought in her heart, she violently tore off the silk rope that bundled the painting, opened the scroll, and still had no spiritual power.

On the contrary, the water droplets on the painting she threw to the ground earlier rolled a few times, and finally fell into the water with a 'tick' sound!
The moment he fell into the water, the clear sound of splashing water rang in Yao Shouning's ears. The two fish in the painting came to life, and the sound of the water flow became louder and louder, and then turned into a turbulent wave hitting the shore——

'boom! '

The sound of huge waves hitting the river bank made Yao Shouning dizzy, and his whole body seemed to lose weight quickly and fell into the icy river.

At this time, the night was quiet, and many people in Shendu City had already fallen into a deep sleep. Ripples began to appear on the surface of the Bailing River outside the city.

The vortex sank straight down, at first it was one foot, one foot, then ten feet, twenty feet, until it was bottomless, and finally fell to the bottom of the river with a "boom".

It's just that the moment the vortex sank to the bottom of the river, the entire city of God heard the shock, and then the ground trembled endlessly.

In the general's mansion, Lu Wuji and his wife hadn't fallen asleep yet.

Zhu Hengrui was cleaning her silver gun, while the general was soaking his feet, the moment something happened in Bailingjiang, the couple were talking, but at the same time, they sensed an unusual and strange aura.

It was very foggy tonight, and with years of experience in guarding the southwest and dealing with evil spirits, they sensed this terrible crisis.

The two couples stopped their movements at the same time, and when they were about to listen, they heard a muffled 'boom'.

Then the ground shook, and the water basin under Lu Wuji's feet flew up.

When he saw that the basin almost fell into the water, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he stepped on his bare feet hard.

The big foot stepped on the bouncing water basin, and the basin fell to the ground with a loud clang, but the hot water inside spilled out and flowed around.

The water flow tonight is extraordinarily bewitching, with a silvery luster shining under the lights, like living 'snakes', meandering and crawling around at high speed.

Zhu Hengrui, who had a lazy look before, lowered his gaze, and stabbed heavily with the silver spear in his hand, piercing a surging 'water snake'.

The terrifying power broke through the shadows surging under the water, and penetrated into the floor tiles.

The black air in the water flow dissipated, and those 'living' water flows suddenly seemed to have lost their backbone. The water splashed in all directions, and finally turned into an ordinary trickle, stopping the rapid parade.

The tail of the gun swayed violently due to the force, and the aftershocks from the ground had disappeared.

The two couples looked at each other, and the eldest princess frowned and sighed:
"There are evil spirits in this world."

And this time the evil spirit appeared so violently that it almost caused the effect of an earthquake, which shows that it is different from ordinary evil spirits.

The Sky Demon Clan has been suppressed for many years, and they have been secretly forbearance to preserve their strength, and now they are finally making a comeback. I am afraid that catastrophe will happen to the world!
Finally, Lu Wuji couldn't sit still anymore, and hastily stuffed his wet feet into the leather boots:

"I have to order a team of black armor and patrol the town."

Zhu Hengrui looked serious, nodded, got up and walked to the silver gun, pulled it hard, and lifted the gun.

Her tall figure cast a long shadow under the light, like an invincible goddess of war.

"You go, I will guard the house!"

Lu Wuji nodded, and hastily summoned his servants to fetch him a cloak, and the figure quickly left the eldest princess' sight.

And at this time, on the other side, in the Yao family——

In the picture drawn by Liu Bingzhou, the moment the water drop falls into the water, it suddenly stirs up a thousand waves like a stone, and the chill passes through the curtain and spreads into the house.

Yao Shouning opened his eyes bravely after a brief moment of weightlessness.

The feeling of drowning disappeared in an instant, and she was still in Yao Wanning's boudoir, and the Mohe picture she was holding in her hand had fallen to the ground at some point.

She tried to stay calm, and flew to the side of the bed, holding the short knife that Mallow had brought from the kitchen earlier in her hand.

The room was quiet, Yao Wanning's soft snoring before had completely disappeared.

Mallow also lay quietly on the ground, like a corpse.

On the bed, Yao Wanning folded her hands in front of her chest, her expression was serene, the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, and a strange blush appeared on her cheeks, as if she had fallen into a beautiful dream.

"Sister, sister!"

The light beside the bed is getting darker and darker, as if someone is pinching the wick, gradually forcing the light back.

The entire Yao family was very quiet, as if caught in a strange curse.

Everyone fell asleep, and Yao Shouning seemed to be the only one awake in the whole world.

She felt terrified and uneasy, but also extremely regretful.

As early as when Yao Wanning was sleepy and troubled, she should have felt that something was wrong.

She pushed Yao Wanning desperately, but no matter how much she shook, Yao Wanning still didn't wake up.

The light dimmed little by little, and finally the wick made a slight sound and disappeared completely.

The room was plunged into darkness, the light was gone, and the thick fog that lingered in Yao's house began to pour into the room unscrupulously.

In an instant, the entire Yao family was blocked by thick fog, and it was almost impossible to see.

Outside Yao's house, two guards in official robes patrolled around Yao's house, talking in a low voice:
"Yao Tou is in prison this time, and I don't know how long he will be able to get out."

"It's not very peaceful in the city recently, let's go around twice more, in case someone knows that Yaotou is not here, and has malicious intentions."

"Strange, why is the fog so thick today?"

Another person answered:
"Who knows?"

The weather this year is weird. First, there were continuous torrential rains, and then it finally cleared up for a few days. It started to rain again a few nights ago, causing many places in the city to be flooded. It seems that the heavy fog tonight is not a strange thing.

"Why are you so sleepy all of a sudden?"

The other person who was talking yawned, his eyelids became more and more sore as he walked, and he couldn't open them. He immediately grabbed his companion and shook his head vigorously.

Unexpectedly, the companion also felt sleepy, and the two stumbled and walked a few steps, both feeling sleepy, so they simply leaned against a wall to wake up.

As soon as they leaned up, they seemed to lose consciousness, and the two of them fell to the ground crookedly.

In the water of the Bailing River surrounding the capital of God, at this moment, it was as if a huge black hole had been pierced out of the center of the river. Countless mist escaped from it, and the river gradually began to boil.

Under the black mist, there is a shadow wrapped in it, like an incomparably huge black cocoon, being hugged and floating out of the river.

'Hoo hoo—'

Surrounded by the gust of wind, the mist was blown away, revealing the pitch-black figure wrapped in the black mist.

This "river god" hiding at the bottom of the river finally showed his real body.

At the same time, at Si Tianjian's Star Observation Building, a Taoist man wearing a blue Taoist robe and wearing a jade hairpin on his temples was standing on the tall building.

It was windy tonight, and his wide sleeved robe was bulged by the wind, making a 'squeak' sound, as if he wanted to take his slender figure back by the wind.

He has a thin figure and a handsome face. At first he looked like he was in his thirties, but upon closer inspection, he found that his eyes seemed to be full of the brilliance of the years.

The Taoist looked at the thick fog wriggling in the distance, a pair of eyes like starry night seemed to be able to penetrate the fog layer, and saw the strange scene of Bailing River at this time.

In the darkness, the "old friend" who had been buried at the bottom of the river for many years returned, and the Taoist's eyes were bent, revealing a happy smile:
"It seems that the prophesied drop of blood has awakened."

……

In Yao's house, Mrs. Liu was sitting in front of the dressing table after washing up, applying balm.

She had already removed the beading jewelry, and the mirror reflected a plump and strong woman in only unlined clothing.

Mammy Cao was very busy cleaning up the hot water she used after washing.

In the past at this time, Liu Shi should have smeared her face and hands quickly and then went to bed to rest, but today she had something on her mind.

Her eldest daughter was in a good condition, and the younger daughter wanted to sleep with Yao Wanning.

I don't know if the two sisters sleep together, Qing Yuan and Bai Yu will serve them well.

Yao Shouning had always been a heavy sleeper, if she fell asleep, she might snatch Yao Wanning's quilt.
