Chapter 331: The Wave Slashes the Demon
The rain pattered.
The candlelight is dim.
In the basement of the main house of the He Mansion, an old man with white hair and beard walked to the three statues with a cane.
This old man is He Kui, the head of the He family.
He Kui picked up four incense sticks and respectfully inserted them into the incense burner in front of him. Then he knelt on the cushion and kowtowed four times to the statue. There was a shallow depression on the ground in front of the cushion. He kowtowed while muttering something.
"I wish the Paper Fairy Master good health."
"I wish the Paper Fairy Master to achieve his goal soon."
"Three wishes..."
After bowing.
He Kui stood up with great effort and did the same thing to another statue.
He worshipped three statues.
A statue of a strong man who is completely white and has a soft texture, but looks ferocious, with a hideous expression and eyes that are almost popping out.
This is the Porcelain Fairy.
One is a wooden statue, depicting a charming and graceful ancient woman holding a bouquet of flowers. The woman looks at the bouquet with an obsessed look, as if she is completely immersed in the flowers.
This is the flower fairy.
The last one is almost lifelike, wearing a wide robe with big sleeves. It is impossible to tell whether it is a man or a woman. His eyes are greedy, and his hands are open as if he wants to grab everything in his hands.
This is a paper fairy.
He Kui came to pay his respects to the Three Immortals every day, and this continued for forty years. In front of each statue, there was a tablet and a burning candle.
The old man slowly stepped back, and more tablets began to appear in his sight, there were dozens of them. These tablets had not been taken care of for a long time and were covered with dust and cobwebs.
It’s all written on the tablet.
Paper fairy! Porcelain fairy! Flower fairy!
He Kui sighed.
"It seems that the time has come for these three to leave the Undead City. I wonder if Little Fourteen is ready."
Whenever the statues of the Three Immortals became complete, they would leave the Undying City, take away one of He Kui's male descendants, and leave behind three crude small statues.
That crude little statue is the new Three Immortals.
If the new three immortals eat enough longevity peaches, they will turn into what they are today.
Those sons who left would build the Three Immortals Hall in the new city, and would only come back in a strange manner every once in a while to consummate the marriage with those young ladies in the hope of leaving behind an heir...
Over and over again, never ending.
The Three Immortals have been expanding in this strange way. Forty years ago, only the Undead City had the Three Immortals Hall, but now... it is said that even in the distant country across the ocean, there are legends of the Three Immortals.
He Kui sighed.
"When the Three Immortals Temples cover the entire world, I can die!"
He Kui is the person who knows the true identities of the Three Immortals best.
Burning incense and kowtowing requires one god, three ghosts and four ghosts. Gods are worshipped with odd numbers such as one and three, while ghosts are worshipped with even numbers such as two and four. Offering sacrifices to the three immortals is a real process of worshipping ghosts, which shows that under the sacred skin of the three immortals, there are terrifying evil ghosts...
suddenly.
He Kui heard some restless noises coming from outside, which meant something was happening.
But He Kui did not pay attention to the outside world. Instead, he looked at the three statues first. The candles in front of the statues were all extinguished, which meant that the three immortals had been attracted by the movement outside.
"It's over, it's over..."
"If the three immortals are disturbed, someone will die."
……
In the rain.
Wei Hengbo anxiously searched for his sister's whereabouts.
The two of them are orphans who were adopted by violent groups since childhood. In order to survive, they had to fight and kill all day long. After many years, they really became famous.
But this kind of life is not what they want, they just want to live a good life. So the brother and sister retired and were about to live a normal life.
It is easy to say "return to the old ways", but only the brother and sister know the bitterness and danger involved. However, normal life has just begun when the brother and sister are drawn into the blessed land.
When introducing yourself.
Wei Hengbo once said that the two brothers and sisters would definitely get out alive.
But what he actually wanted to say was that his sister would definitely get out alive, but his sister would definitely be unhappy if he said that, so he emphasized the brother and sister.
to him.
His sister's life was more important than his own.
Therefore, once he was separated from his sister, he was filled with fear, fearing that his sister would die in a dark corner...
Searching and searching.
Wei Hengbo found an open door.
He went to the door and looked inside carefully, and saw several maids busying themselves inside, some were cutting paper, and some were making rice paste.
Their movements were very skillful, obviously they had done it many times.
"What are they doing?"
Wei Hengbo became suspicious and walked to the window, tearing the oil paper and looking inside. He saw a wooden bed in the back of the room, on which lay an unconscious woman with her back to him.
The woman had no clothes on, but most of her skin was covered with red paper. Her breathing was steady and painful, as if she was going through some kind of torture. Even her hair was stained with paper pulp...
"Those maids, are they making paper figures?"
"That's true..."
"Let's not talk about the paper figures without wisdom. The servants and maids of the He Mansion, as well as the talking paper figures carrying the coffin, all seem to have been living people."
"By sticking stickers on people, we can turn living people into paper figures!"
While thinking.
Wei Hengbo suddenly glanced at a corner of the room.
The woman who was being made into a paper figure had her back to Wei Hengbo, so he could not determine her identity, but he saw a tattered paper umbrella in the corner.
It’s Wei Qinglan’s six-pattern magic umbrella!
So that woman is Wei Qinglan!
Wei Hengbo's eyes turned red instantly, and the Blood-Drinking Goose Feather Knife was suddenly unsheathed. He kicked the door open and rushed into the room, quickly chopping all the maids down with his knife.
Then he lifted up the woman on the table and shook her vigorously.
"Qinglan, wake up, are you okay? Open your eyes and tell me..."
Wei Hengbo's words stopped abruptly and his whole body began to tremble.
He was horrified to find that the woman's face was covered in blood and flesh, with blood and paper mixed together. Her eyeballs had been dug out and filled with spherical paper balls.
"Qinglan, I, I..."
Wei Hengbo's heart was torn as if by a knife, and his mind was in a mess. He didn't notice that the woman opened one of her arms and sharp nails grew out...
puff!
The knife stabbed into Wei Hengbo's abdomen, and a hideous smile appeared on the woman's bloody face.
The severe pain woke Wei Hengbo up.
Only then did he notice that there was no scar below the left collarbone of the woman, where Wei Qinglan had been stabbed by a dagger. He subconsciously avoided his sister's body and did not notice anything unusual about her!
Wow!
The arm was pulled out and a large amount of blood spurted out.
The maids who were chopped down on the ground also stood up and walked towards Wei Hengbo, holding papers coated with rice paste.
Wei Hengbo chopped down the woman in front of him with a knife, and smeared his blood on the knife while panting. The Blood-Drinking Goose Feather Knife instantly absorbed the blood, and the long knife emitted a strange light.
"what……"
"Even if I'm injured, you can't leave me here!"
