Chapter 129: People are cunning
The sun sets.
Only a hint of yellow remains.
The cold evening wind blew the weeds and broken leaves, making the mass grave even more desolate.
The circular open space was empty. Everyone, who had recovered their spirits, had already lined up in front of the grave mound in the cold wind.
The people entering the room this time are different from before, and the distribution of numbers is much more extreme.
Just in front of the clothing store tomb, there were nine people gathered in a long line, making the number of people going to other tombs seem pitifully small.
As usual, no one wanted to go to the mourning hall grave, but today's banquet hall grave was treated the same as the mourning hall grave, which meant that no one would be able to bring out food tomorrow and everyone would go hungry.
The two people who went to the guest room grave were Aunt He and Su Mi.
Su Mi has recovered from the blow of losing his potential girlfriend, but Aunt He looks pale and shivers from time to time. Wu Xian has a good impression of Su Mi, so he hopes that Su Mi will not be implicated by this aunt.
The only person who wants to go to the study tomb is Sister Qing.
She was wearing mourning clothes and had wounds on her body. She stood alone in the cold wind, shivering slightly and muttering scriptures of the Three Officials Sect. She looked somewhat pitiful.
Wu Xian shook his head.
"Hey... I hope the Three Officials Emperor can bless you more because you are a believer."
"Well, let's not give her preferential treatment. It's better to bless everyone equally so that we can all get some protection."
Wu Xian looked back at the nine people in his team.
Among them, he, Du E, Wei Dian, Liang Fang and other four people all went to the study and guest room and got the birthday gifts and the evil spirit skin.
The information they obtained in the room should have been consistent, so they all made the same choice, first going to the clothing store to get mourning clothes, and then taking risks in the mourning hall and banquet hall.
Hu Yunkuan and Guan Daorong had been to Yipu Tomb once before, but although they managed to survive that time, they did not get the mourning clothes because they did not have the evil spirit skin.
So after they survived the guest room, they returned to the clothing store again.
Although this choice would cause them to waste a day, it was better than dying miserably in another room due to lack of mourning clothes.
As for the rest, Xu Fenglan, teacher Luan Jing, and Boss Yu...
They lined up happily at the front of the line without any fear on their faces. Last time they went into a clothing store, it was not surprising that they went into the store together this time.
pat!
The doors of all the graves opened at the same time.
The three people who chose the study and guest room entered without hesitation, but Hu Yunkuan, who was at the front of the clothing shop, stopped and even took a step back.
A little head popped out of the grave.
This is a young woman.
She was less than 1.2 meters tall, with a spiky haircut and a prickly robe draped over her back. She held a white lantern in her hand and walked out nonchalantly, shining the lantern.
"ah!"
"Why are there so many people? We are six or seven people over capacity!"
"You guys wait here for a while, we need to prepare before opening the store!"
After saying this, the little woman put the lantern on the ground, turned around and ran back to the clothing store. The door of the store closed suddenly, leaving all nine people queuing outside in the cold wind.
The sun had already set by this time.
All the demons and monsters in the surrounding mass graves crawled out, vaguely surrounding the circular open space. All kinds of strange shapes and sizes, staring with eyes wide open and drooling, were spying on the flesh and blood of everyone.
"How can there be such a thing as overcrowding? How long do we have to wait?"
"Evil spirits are evil spirits. They don't know how to cherish time!"
Boss Yu and the other three who were wearing mourning clothes were instantly terrified. They were unable to enter the clothing store, which made them feel uneasy.
"It's all your fault. If you hadn't insisted on coming to the clothing store, we would have gone in long ago!" Xu Fenglan took out a makeup mirror to touch up her makeup, and complained to Wu Xian and the others in a sarcastic tone.
Everyone except the three of them was also a little panicked. After all, it was the first time that they couldn't enter the room at night.
Wu Xian thought for two seconds, then walked forward, picked up the lantern from the ground, and returned to the center of the team. As the lantern light moved, all the evil spirits outside retreated a distance.
Seeing this scene, everyone realized the effect of the lights. They immediately stopped lining up and gathered around Wu Xian.
Previously, Butler Hu from the Liu Mansion also used a lantern to scare away the evil spirits. Although the light of this white lantern is a little weaker, it has the same ability as that lantern.
With this lantern, they shouldn't be in too much danger even if they enter the clothing store a little later.
After confirming the lantern's capabilities.
Wu Xian touched his chin.
"in addition……"
He raised the lantern and stretched it towards Guan Daorong in front of him, almost touching his face.
Guan Daorong replied dissatisfiedly: "What are you going to do?"
Wu Xian did not stop and continued to send the lantern out. When the lantern jumped over Guan Daorong's face, something appeared behind the light.
A strange man with layers of flesh and blood, almost two people tall, and covered with hundreds of horizontal wounds on his body, suddenly appeared behind Guan Daorong.
"Mom!"
Except for Wu Xian, Du E and Wei Dian who were mentally prepared, everyone else screamed. No matter when, the sudden appearance of a monster would be very shocking to people.
The weirdo smiled creepily and waved to everyone.
Everyone swallowed their saliva; his face was too dignified to look at.
The evil spirit that suddenly appeared and stuck to Wu Xian and others was actually the combination of Huo Gai and Sha Xiuwen that was formed in the guest room this morning!
Then Wu Xian used the same trick again.
Shining the lantern outward, two more figures were revealed.
One was Jiang Xianglan, who had gone to Shufang Tomb with Wu Xian and others. There were large areas of burns on her face and body, with faint steam coming out of them, and her face was expressionless.
The other was Qi Peiye. He was pale, as if he had lost too much blood. There was a blood line in the middle of his waist, and the clothes below the blood line were all stained red.
These three evil spirits also surrounded Wu Xian and others, hiding within the range of the light.
Wu Xian shrugged: "It seems that these three will also go to the clothing store with us tonight."
When the little woman turned back.
Wu Xian knew that there were more than just three people queuing.
Because she said there were six or seven people over capacity.
However, the maximum number of people that could enter the Yipu Tomb at one time was only five, and there were nine living people, so how did the number exceed the capacity by six or seven?
It's very simple, there are evil spirits waiting in line...
This is already an old routine in this blessed land.
People's reactions to this were very different.
Wu Xian, Guan Daorong, Du E, Wei Dian and Hu Yunkuan did not react much, as they were already used to evil spirits trying to blend into the crowd.
It was also because of this that Wu Xian was able to quickly discover these three evil spirits.
Xu Fenglan and the other three people who were wearing mourning clothes relaxed when they saw the three evil spirits trying to enter the clothing store. Apart from being frightened, they were not averse to entering the room with the evil spirits.
Liang Fang wanted to attack the evil spirit, but Wei Dian held her hand and shook his head slightly.
Now is not the time to take action. If the lantern is broken during a fight, the evil spirits outside will eat them alive in an instant...
So she could only put down her hand angrily.
Wei Dian didn't take his hand away from hers...
Well, let me talk about the update issue. I used to update at 5 pm, but since it was launched, I have only updated three times a day. I have run out of drafts, and I can’t keep up with it every day. Instead of explaining the reasons for the late update every day, I might as well update at a more casual time in the future. I will try to update at 5 o'clock, but if I don’t update at 5 o'clock, don’t worry, I will definitely finish the three updates before 12 o'clock. If I can’t finish it, I will explain it separately...
