The Witch of Xiangxi

Chapter 166 Meeting the Old Ones
Xia Xiangxi sighed and said to Shi Wei: "It seems that we can only come at night!"

Shi Wei's eye circles have been red for a long time, her father died tragically, she can't come to collect the body now, no one will feel better.

But there is no way to be anxious and sad.Shi Wei is an open-minded girl who knows how to turn grief into strength.Although it is as easy to say as the upper lip touches the lower lip, only Shi Wei knows how hard it is to do it.

The four of them continued to track down the fifth master who was driving the corpse.

Before going far, Xia Xiangxi and the others found the fifth master.

Rather than saying that Xia Xiangxi and the others were looking for clues, Xia Xiangxi felt that the fifth master had no intention of escaping at all, and even deliberately left clues for them.

It was already noon now, and Fifth Master was sitting outside a dilapidated thatched house, guarding the door.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he slowly and slightly raised his closed eyelids, without really looking at them seriously, he closed them again.It looked like they had expected these people to come.

When Shi Wei saw that fifth master, she hated and was conflicted in her heart.The hatred of her grandfather's generation, after all, is too old, and she has never met her own grandfather, and knows that her grandfather was pissed to death by the fifth master. That kind of hatred is actually instilled in her by her father Shi Guoguang. It's not emotional, so I don't hate it in my heart.Now it's different from before, she saw her father's tragic death with her own eyes, the pain of losing a loved one forever, only she can understand clearly.Even if her father was not killed by Master Wu himself, but because of him, this hatred cannot be erased.That's why Shi Wei really started to have a feeling of jealousy towards Fifth Master now, this is emanating from the bottom of her heart, and she will never forget it even after she dies.

However, what troubled Shi Wei at this time was that her life was actually saved by Fifth Master.He is not worthy of the name of killing his father and enemy, but he is indeed her savior!

Shi Wei didn't know whether she should keep her conscience and be grateful to the person who indirectly killed the two lives of their family, or should she ignore his life-saving grace and kill what should be done?

Xia Xiangxi has been paying attention to Shi Wei, so Shi Wei's emotions completely fall into her eyes.Xia Xiangxi was always worried that Shi Wei would be blinded by hatred, if she really tried to kill that fifth master, she would stop her no matter what.Although the old saying goes, "Killer pays life and pays debts." But even if the fifth master carried the Shi family's life on his back, Shi Wei couldn't kill him.Now it is a society ruled by law!
Grandpa was not in good health, and walked very slowly along the way. Because of his mood at the moment, he took the lead to go to the front, in front of the fifth master.

Xia Xiangxi knew that Grandpa really wanted to know whether this fifth master was the fifth master he was thinking about?
At this time, the fifth master was sitting cross-legged on a rock, the brim of his big straw hat was very low, casting his entire face in the shadow.

"Fifth Master? Is your hometown in the north? Did you ever worship a Fengshui master named Xia as your teacher when you were young..." Grandpa asked three questions in one breath.He recognized people's eagerness, and his tone of speech was a little anxious, and even started to shake his body and cough because he choked his saliva into his throat.Xia Xiangxi walked over in a hurry, and said to grandpa, the person is already here, just ask slowly, don't worry, while helping grandpa gently run his hands along the back.

When Grandpa finally regained his breath, Xia Xiangxi glanced sideways at Fifth Master, then her hand trembled uncontrollably as if she had been frightened by something, and she even lifted it to her chest .

At this time, noon had passed, and the shortest hour of human shadow had passed. Xia Xiangxi happened to be standing on the east side of the fifth master. Ordinarily, the shadow of the fifth master should also be facing northeast. Who knew, Xia Xiangxi did not Seeing Wu Ye's shadow, he directly saw the shadow of a small piece of the rock sitting under Wu Ye's buttocks on the ground.It was as if no one was sitting on the rock at all.

Xia Xiangxi already felt bad in her heart, and began to pay attention to the fifth master, she sniffed lightly with her nose again, to her surprise, she didn't smell the smell she expected.In addition, although the fifth master has a very dark spirit, compared to a person who deals with zombies all day long, this is not unusual.Under that heavy layer of yin qi, there is actually some weak yang qi.Xia Xiangxi could feel that the fifth master was not a dead person or a zombie, but there was no shadow, which was too scary.It is impossible for a human being, even any living animal or plant in this world, to be without a shadow.There are only ghosts and no shadows!
At this time, the fifth master slowly raised his head. It seemed that he hadn't heard his grandfather's words at all. He turned his head slightly to Xia Xiangxi's side, and his slightly hoarse voice contained a lot of tiredness. He said slowly: "After waiting for many years, I finally got the person I was waiting for."

What he was talking about was Xia Xiangxi, a woman whose birth date was completely negative.The person he told Shi Wei that he could open the door of hell for him!

Xia Xiangxi still wanted his grandfather to know if this fifth master was the "fifth brother" back then, so he repeated his grandfather's words and introduced his identity clearly.

After saying this, the fifth master still didn't have much reaction, it seemed that what Xia Xiangxi said was all irrelevant to him.Knowing that Xia Xiangxi repeated it repeatedly, he said indifferently, "Oh, old friend!"

With just a few short words like this, even though the meaning has been expressed, Xia Xiangxi still wants to stare angrily at the fifth master's indifference.

Grandpa also calmed down at this time.In fact, old people are different from young people.If water is used to describe young people, young people are jumping and jingling springs all the way, while old people are the sea, which tolerates a lot, tolerates a lot, and drowns the temperament that should be there.

"Since you are an old friend, sit down and have a word! Other people, don't get in the way!" Fifth Master still spoke slowly, stretching out his hand that was carved out of the ugliest tree root, slightly facing Make gestures with a stone next to it.That is to greet grandpa to sit down.

Xia Xiangxi, Shi Wei, and Ma Po got out of the way together.Leave a place for two long-lost old people.

It was also at this time that Xia Xiangxi began to count the fifth master's age.Grandpa is already in his 70s, so if you count it, this fifth master is also in his 90s. This is considered to be the age of an old birthday. If you look at his body and walking posture last night, he does not look like such an old man. .

Grandpa said that those who know witchcraft and alchemy will suffer backlash in old age, and few of them will be strong.But it's different after seeing this fifth master!Is it because of his extraordinarily advanced morality?
At this time, Shi Wei's mood is also much better, her eyes are not so entangled, but a kind of cruel eyes that have gritted her teeth.Xia Xiangxi's heart trembled when he saw it, was that the look in his eyes that wanted to kill someone?
