After the hero goes crazy

Chapter 146 He is here

Yao Shouning was holding the notebook that Wen Xianrong returned that day, and he didn't turn over a few pages all afternoon.

After a while, the sky became darker again, the words on the scripture book were a bit blurred, and the mist in mid-air distorted. She took a deep breath, and put down the scriptbook in agitation:
"Forget it, don't order, let's go directly to Mother's side."

She was a little anxious. Lu Zhi, who had promised her to come, hadn't shown up yet. She wondered if she was caught up in something and couldn't get out.

Mallow didn't know, but she also felt that she was in a bad mood tonight, so she nodded and said:
"That's right, it's getting dark early tonight, why don't you go back early, wash up, go to bed and go to bed earlier."

She didn't feel the weirdness of the atmosphere tonight at all, but felt that the weather this year was really strange. After saying this, she said:
"But I have to get the lantern first, Miss, wait for me for a while."

It seemed to be getting dark early again tonight, and when I came back from eating in Liu's room, it might already be late at night.

Now that the fog is so thick, if you don’t prepare a lantern, you may not be able to see your fingers when you come back. The lantern last night was wet and couldn’t be ignited. During the day, she asked her aunt who was doing odd jobs at home to help prepare another one, but she hadn’t gone to pick it up yet. .

At this moment, Yao Shouning was thinking that Lu Zhi hadn't come yet, so he didn't have the heart to take care of these trivial matters. Hearing this, he nodded indiscriminately, and Dong Kui went out with some joy.

She heard the music humming in Mallow's mouth, and stepped briskly out of the courtyard, feeling a little envious.

Ever since her bloodline awakened and met Yaoxie, the innocent and happy life in the past seemed to be gone forever. She hadn't been so purely happy for a long time.

She sighed, and before she put down the book in her hand, there was an 'aggressive' knocking sound from the wall beside her.

Yao Shouning was stunned for a moment, and saw a pitch-black object inserted into the corner of the window, vaguely familiar, she took a closer look and recognized that it was Lu Zhi's scabbard.

"Sir!"

Overjoyed, Yao Shouning immediately stood up and called out in a brisk tone.

The window was raised, exposing Lu Zhi's body standing by the window.

After a long while, he lowered his head and took a look inside, just in time to see Yao Shouning sitting by the window.

She held up a book and was reading it. There were villains drawn on it. He glanced at it casually. It should be a fantasy storybook.

The moment his eyes met Lu Zhi's, Yao Shouning's eyes burst into radiance, and the surprise in his eyes almost turned into reality, making Lu Zhi stunned for a moment.

"You came!"

"Yeah." Lu Zhi has been used to this look since he was a child, and after a brief moment of stupefaction, he quickly returned to his original expression:
"come out."

His eyes fell on Yao Shouning, and he didn't take advantage of the opportunity of opening the window to peek around her boudoir, but he could still see a small amount of decoration through a corner.

The long kang is built by the window, and thick mattresses are spread on it.

A low table with a waist was placed on the kang, and there were some snacks and refreshments on the table. Other than that, the table was clean and there was nothing else on it.

Hearing his call, Yao Shouning put the book on the table without saying a word, and turned over from the open window.

Her action made Lu Zhi's eyelids twitch, and he knocked on the window:

"Go through the door."

"That's right." Yao Shouning also came to his senses, patted his forehead, and seemed to suddenly think of something, and hurriedly turned around to serve the snacks on the table:

"Has the prince eaten?"

The dessert was the yam and jujube paste cake made by the kitchen. No matter in appearance or taste, it should not be comparable to the chef in the general's mansion.

He didn't speak, but turned his head away, showing half of his indifferent side face.

Such a gesture is that he does not eat.

Yao Shouning didn't mind, so he put down the snack plate and quickly put on his shoes and went out.

At this time, Lu Zhi was wearing a black dress, with his hair tied behind him, looking heroic, with a small and delicate face, and his skin seemed to be glowing white in the night.

"When did the prince come?" Yao Shouning was a little happy. He was still worried before, but the moment he saw Lu Zhi, he felt his heart drop back to the original place.

Lu Zhi didn't make a sound.

In fact, he has been here for a while, but the girl next to her has been with her all the time, so it is inconvenient for him to show up.

He didn't speak, and Yao Shouning didn't care. He looked around and felt that something was wrong:

"Where are the others? Hiding?"

"It's just me." After he said this, the girl was shocked:
"what?"

"I'm enough alone." Lu Zhi's face showed pride:
"Tell me about the origin of that demon."

"..."

Yao Shouning's smile stiffened, and then he panicked:

"I feel a little dangerous."

"Your feelings are not accurate!" He replied bluntly.

She feels the best!Yao Shouning wanted to refute him, but when he thought that Yao Wanning still had to rely on him for help, he was afraid of offending him, so he let go and left, so he could only hold back the rebuttals that came to his lips.

However, Lu Zhi didn't even know what the evil spirit he was about to face was, so how could he be so confident that he could kill that 'river god' by himself?
But no one in the Yao family can resist the evil spirits now, and her blood can only temporarily suppress it, and it cannot really destroy the "River God" and get rid of Yao Wanning's crisis. Follow Shizi secretly.

"The water my mother brought to boil the medicine is from the Bailing River. I don't know if it's for this reason, but the one who branded my sister is the 'God of the River'."

She guessed that the "River God" first married Yao Wanning in a dream with a demon method, and after the wedding was completed, Yao Wanning would be taken away. Therefore, the ceremony must be interrupted before the ceremony is completed, or the "River God" should be killed later. die.

In the morning, due to time constraints, Yao Shouning only gave an overview of the matter.

Hearing her explain in detail at this time, Lu Zhi already knew about this matter in his heart.

He guessed that this might not be some kind of 'river god', but a water ghost who died in the water, and the corpse was just a mischief caused by the weather.

In the records of Shenwumen, there is also such a water monster, its strength is not very strong, as long as its body is broken and its ghost energy is abolished, its resentment will naturally disappear.

"Lead the way." He pressed the long sword and said:

"Go to your sister's house."

Mong Kui went to get the lantern, if she left now, she might not find anyone when she came back.

But at present, Yao Wanning's safety is naturally more important. As for the "small matter" that Mong Kui can't find anyone when she comes back, it is naturally not worth mentioning.

Yao Shouning nodded and said:

"You come with me."

The two of them walked out of the courtyard, and the light outside seemed to be darker.

The fog became thicker and thicker, and it was impossible to see things a few meters away.

'Clatter——'

In the thick fog, there seemed to be the sound of water flowing. Yao Shouning looked up like a frightened bird and asked Lu Zhi:

"Did you hear it?"

He didn't hear any sound, but with the keen sense of a martial arts practitioner, he noticed the evil spirit surging at this moment.

"There is a sound of water flowing, possibly the 'river god'."

Yao Shouning was a little nervous and subconsciously bit his lip.

There was a lot of fog, and the sky darkened unknowingly.

The two stepped onto the corridor, the corridor was covered with wooden boards, and each foot made a 'creaking' sound, which then turned into an echo.

Yao Shouning has walked this road countless times in the past, but there has never been such a strange time.

Every time a footstep was lifted and fell, no matter how careful Yao Shouning was, the wooden board would always make a slight sound when it was squeezed by force.

I don't know if it was because she was worried, knowing that the 'River God' would come, which made her suspicious. Yao Shouning always felt that this sound seemed like someone was panting sharply.

The more she walked, the more afraid she became, and the more afraid she became, the more careful she became.

'Crack, creak—'

The trampling sound became louder and louder, the wooden plank under his feet seemed to have loosened, and Yao Shouning's heartstrings were tensed.

"Not right."

At this moment, Lu Zhi stopped and his voice broke the silence.

'what--! '

In the dark environment, after he finished speaking, there was a sharp howling sound.

The voice seemed to come from all directions in the dense fog, as if countless 'people' were awakened by his voice.

Yao Shouning wanted to scream out of nowhere, but before he could make a sound, he took a quick step forward and stood firmly beside Lu Zhi.

"Did you hear the sound?"

"What sound?" The situation at this time was different from before, so Lu Zhi asked her.

"It seems that someone is calling." She tried her best to describe the sound she heard before, and then added:
"Scream."

After finishing speaking, she was a little anxious:
"Is the 'River God' already here? Then my mother and the others..."

At the critical moment, Yao Shouning was a little worried about the Liu family and his brothers and sisters.

"Probably not." Lu Zhi shook his head, "Maybe they came at us first."

His words comforted Yao Shouning, but she was still very anxious.

After all, if the 'River God' has already appeared, even if he came to the two of them first, there is no guarantee that he will not separate his spells to deal with Liu's.

Lu Zhi was very skilled, and Yao Shouning was not very worried about him after seeing him kill the snake woman.

But there is no one guarding Liu's side, facing the evil spirits, she is even more afraid that something will happen to her family.

"Or, let's go to my mother's side first."

It was getting dark early tonight, Yao Ruoyun and his sister might go to Liu's room for dinner early, she wanted to go to Liu's first to confirm the safety of her family, and if Yao Wanning didn't arrive, then go to her yard.

"Didn't you find it?"

Lu Zhi stopped and turned to look at her.

In the darkness, his face was blurred, but Yao Shouning always felt that he frowned when he spoke.

"Found what?"

She was anxious and panicked, and when she heard his question, she asked subconsciously.

"This road has been going for a long time, don't you feel something is wrong?"

Lu Zhi visited Yao's house during the day, although he didn't run wild, but walking through the gate into the main house and being brought into her yard by Yao Shouning was enough for him to figure out the general layout of Yao's house .

Yao's house is not very big, and it is divided into several residences, and each house is not very far from each other.

It had been at least a quarter of an hour since the two of them came out of Yao Shouning's room and stepped onto the veranda, but they still hadn't seen the shadow of the courtyard in front of them.

He looked back, and under the heavy fog, he couldn't see the way back.

I saw a long corridor stretching back until it was swallowed up by the black mist. I couldn't see the way back, and I couldn't see the exit ahead, as if the two had already embarked on another road of no return.

Yao Shouning was struck by lightning.

Today's fog is particularly heavy, and for some reason, it suppresses her very much.

After being awakened by Lu Zhi at this time, Yao Shouning realized something was wrong.

She was smart at first, but after thinking about it, since she stepped on the veranda, she has been very tense after hearing the sound of water flowing. The soft "creaking" wooden boards and the faint wailing in the dense fog all caused great psychological pressure on her, making her completely unaware of the passage of time until Lu Zhi reminder.

"I..." Panic and shame appeared on her face:
"I didn't find out, sorry."

"It's not your fault." Lu Zhi shook his head, "This place is very evil, and they intend to trap us here."

Lu Zhi looked at her thoughtfully.

The fact that the 'River God' was driven away the night before was obviously not due to the Liu family's credit, but Yao Shouning was most likely responsible.

So this time the water ghost made a comeback and trapped Yao Shouning on purpose, apparently out of fear of her doing something bad.

Hearing what he said, Yao Shouning felt much better, and then he heard Lu Zhi say:
"Playing tricks, I'll just wait here to see what tricks it will play."

His voice was lazy, with a sense of desolation. Facing the strange environment, he was not afraid at all, and he really wanted to stop.

"No!" Yao Shouning's heart tightened, and he stretched out his hand in desperation to pull him:
"I have to go see my mother."

"I only promised to protect your sister and kill Yaoxie." Lu Zhi was unmoved and reminded her.

Yao Shouning panicked immediately.

Under the circumstances at that time, Lu Zhi really only agreed to protect Yao Wanning. She originally thought that Yao Wanning was the only one in danger. After all, her sister was the target of the "River God".

Lu Zhi promised to get rid of the "River God" for her. She thought that as long as this evil spirit died, the crisis of the Yao family would be resolved, but she didn't expect such a twists and turns, and the two were trapped in place.

"I've already called you daddy!" She stomped her feet anxiously, crying in her voice.

"I called you mother too." Lu Zhi didn't soften his heart, and replied to her:
"The two of us just hit a tie."

Seriously speaking, Lu Zhi felt that he was still at a disadvantage. After all, the poison of his demon Gu had not been cured yet, and he had also stirred up the troubled waters of the Yao family, and the conditions that Yao Shouning agreed to him had not yet happened.

But for some reason, his mind recalled what his mother said when he went back today: Mrs. Liu is the most respectful person, and Shouning makes mistakes, but he will be beaten.

He has always been indifferent and acts according to his heart's will. At this time, he thought of the words of the eldest princess and found it quite interesting. He thought for a while:
"Did your mother beat you?"

"what?"

Yao Shouning didn't understand why he would ask such a question at this time.

Lu Zhi asked again:
"Did your mother beat you?"

She realized that he was asking about the situation after the princess and others left during the day.

Although she didn't know why Lu Zhi still asked such a question in such an urgent situation, she still suppressed the anxiety in her heart and said honestly:

"No." She wanted to cry, sobbing:

"But it almost made me kneel down on the ancestral tablet."

"..."

Her words almost made Lu Zhi laugh. In the darkness, he glanced at Yao Shouning, then looked away:

"Let's go."

Although he didn't know why he changed his mind, Yao Shouning breathed a sigh of relief.
