Chapter 16: Terrifying Evil
Is this the evil spirit?

Zhao Shi was secretly shocked. He hadn't seen the evil spirit yet, but just the aura it released was enough to make this ancestor spirit feel irritated and a bloodthirsty impulse surged from the bottom of his heart.

eager.

Thirst for blood.

And below, there is fresh blood in the ancestral hall.

“It’s delicious!”

"Eat them!"

"Drain their blood!"

Feeling the presence of these people in the room, thoughts emerged from the bottom of his heart.

Zhao Shi didn't even notice that his feet were already moving downwards unconsciously. There was nothing he could do. Once this bloodthirsty impulse emerged in his heart, he could no longer suppress it.

His eyes gradually turned red, as if stained with blood.

Releasing a bloodthirsty light.

instinct!

At this moment, Zhao Shi only had bloodthirsty instinct left.

confusion!

The whole person's thinking seems to be affected and becomes confused.

Thinking?

Don’t be silly, it seems that even my conscious thinking is overwhelmed by this impulse.

As Zhao Shi was walking down with red eyes, a cool breath appeared in his mind, like a bucket of cold water poured into hot oil.

So cool!
His confused thoughts and bloodthirsty instincts instantly subsided.

hiss.
When Zhao Shi regained consciousness, he saw that he had arrived at the entrance of the ancestral hall and couldn't help but gasp.

He still remembered everything that happened just now.

It is precisely because I remember that I feel terrified.

Just a glance.

This one look made him fall completely.

For a moment at night, Zhao Shi didn't know what the consequences would be.

so horrible.

Is it the weakness of the ancestral spirit?

Zhao Shi could see someone secretly looking over there, but he was not affected at all.

Only for spirits?
Is this the evil spirit?

There are legends about evil spirits out there, saying how scary they are.

But, just hearing about it will never be possible to truly experience it.

Only by experiencing it personally can one know the horror of this evil. He was almost, just almost, trapped in it completely. Once trapped, it would be almost impossible to jump out.

Suddenly, Zhao Shi thought of the blood-red eyes of the butcher’s ancestor.

I don’t know how Butcher Chen’s family is doing.

Of course, Zhao Shi wouldn't care, because Jiang Ling'er had already told him what happened some time ago.

Want to marry her daughter as a concubine?
Ha ha!

It was considered merciful that Zhao Shi did not take any action.

wrong!

Suddenly, Zhao Shi was stunned. Although the ancestor of the butcher family had bloodthirsty impulses and instincts, it seemed that he was holding back? Just like the desire revealed in the eyes just now, even Zhao Shi could clearly feel it.

What about that person? He just stood there without moving.

strength?
This is the only explanation.

The ancestral spirit barrier of the butcher's house is three or four times larger than his, and the yard is completely covered by the ancestral spirit barrier.

Naturally, his strength is much stronger than Zhao Shi.

"By the way, where did that cool breath just now come from?"

Zhao Shi was suddenly startled.

Thinking of the cool breath just now, if it weren't for this cool breath, he would probably have done something that would make him regret for the rest of his life.

"Uh"

When he checked himself thoroughly, he was a little dumbfounded.

The dozens of strands of incense power stored in his body were completely consumed.

"This"

"This"

Zhao Shi was speechless.

I don't know what to say.

These incense and divine powers were what he had saved by living frugally these past few days, and he was going to keep them for upgrading the ancestral spirit barrier tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, it was consumed before it even had time to warm up.

Do you regret coming to the rooftop to take a look?

No. Sooner or later, you will have to come into contact with this world and understand it. Just listening to your wife and daughter talking about it will not give you an intuitive understanding.

After all, both of them heard it from hearsay.

This world is more terrifying than he had imagined. Not only are there evil spirits, but even the ancestral spirits are extremely dangerous.

The slightest carelessness can lead to catastrophic consequences.

He was originally a little arrogant, but now he completely put to rest all those unnecessary thoughts in his mind.

Live honestly.

Low-key development is the way to go.

There was no other way. This world was too dangerous. He hadn't even seen the evil spirit yet, but the aura it released almost made him fall completely. Would he meet the evil spirit? Zhao Shi didn't even dare to think about what the result would be.

He dodged and returned to the ancestral hall.

Zhao Shi doesn’t dare to stay outside for too long now. If something really goes wrong, he won’t have any extra incense and divine power to waste.

I have lingering fears.

Zhao Shi did not return to his own world.

The evil spirit was not far away, and Zhao Shi didn't dare to leave the mother and daughter here alone.

Evil spirits are strange and powerful.

But since the ancestral spirits exist, the evil spirits did not go to those families with ancestral spirits, obviously they were also afraid. Zhao Shi didn't know what would happen if the evil spirits came into the ancestral spirit barrier, nor did he know what means he would have to deal with the evil spirits.

Yes, Zhao Shi didn’t know how to deal with the evil spirits.

I don’t know if he himself doesn’t know, or if all ancestral spirits are like this.

After all, his situation is too special.

He is alive.

Even if it is a soul now, it is the soul of a living person.

"Huh! It's finally over." When the day broke in the other world, Zhao Shi let out a long sigh and muttered a few words to himself with lingering fear.

The night passed safely, and the evil spirit did not spread. After killing the family, it disappeared.

A cock crows!
The children in the ancestral hall woke up one after another.

Zhao Shi had been there all night, so he naturally knew that almost no one was asleep. Yangjiao Hutong, which had been peaceful for more than ten days, was once again visited by evil spirits.

I don't know which family was destroyed today.

But if this continues, sooner or later it will be their turn.

The rabbit dies and the fox is sad.

They hid in Zhao's house, but the men were still in their own homes.

"Thanks for the protection of the ancestors of the Zhao family!" The older women each took out three incense sticks from their cloth bags, respectfully inserted them into the incense burner, and worshiped sincerely in front of Zhao Shi's tablet.

Dare not be insincere.

If not for themselves, then for their grandchildren.

Therefore, even though they knew that the person on the tablet was younger than them, they still kowtowed without any hesitation or force.

"Thank you Uncle Zhao for your protection!"

"Thank you, Grandpa Zhao, for your protection!"

"Grandpa Zhao, Erniu will definitely burn incense for you. I hope you can protect our family from being harassed by evil spirits!"

After the adults finished their worship, the children also began to burn incense and worship.

The older one is called uncle and the younger one is called grandpa.

Ok!

Zhao Shi didn't even think that he was of his grandfather's generation.

When he traveled through time, he had just graduated from college and was already 22 years old. This age is considered a young boy on Blue Star, but it is considered middle-aged in the other world. People of his age have children running around the streets.

What about now?
Those people's grandchildren are already old enough to help with cooking.

In this case, there's nothing wrong with calling him grandpa.

However, when Zhao Shi heard the name "grandpa" being addressed, he felt inexplicably emotional.

In his own world, thirty-eight is still considered a young man, but in this alien world he can be considered old.

Twenty sticks of incense.

Zhao Shi looked at his harvest with some surprise.

There are twice as many incense sticks as usual.

Twice that’s forty strands.

It’s like making up for what was consumed last night.

While Zhao Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was also thinking about the reason.

It doubled out of thin air.

这 是
Is it because the heart is more sincere that there are more incense sticks?

Is it the work of evil spirits?

this.
Dumbfounding.

However, Zhao Shi also understood that it has been like this since ancient times, and this is what cramming means.
