Chapter 213 Yin Yang Hairpin

It is said that some dead things have obsessions. This old lady has been dead for many years and became a mountain spirit by relying on the hairpin on her head. Maybe she is really a concubine of that dynasty.

It's just that the memory still stays in the living time! ?

Seeing that I didn't speak, the old lady said again: "What's your name?"

This can make me a little embarrassed.

If I had said my real name, I would probably have revealed my secrets. Afraid of being chased away by her, a flash of inspiration flashed in my head, and I said, "Hui Niangniang, my name is Mingyue!"

The old lady said in a lukewarm voice: "Concubine Hui is still in Scarlet Rouge recently?"

"Go back to your mother, Concubine Hui has been thrown into limbo by the emperor."

"It deserves it!" The old lady laughed coldly twice, "Just because she still wants to compete with me in front of the emperor, she is beyond her power."

... There are so many dramas, with your inhuman appearance now, who are you competing for favor with?

The old lady sat on a broken stool and said impatiently, "Come here, comb my hair."

The old lady sat upright with her hands on her knees, and the ring finger and little finger of her right hand were wearing a concubine's armor, which was terrifyingly long.

There was a chopping board on the wall in front of her, and on it was a pair of blackened horn combs. I mustered up the courage to go over and pick it up, and went around behind her to grab her hair.

The old lady's hair was as messy as a hen's coop, each strand was twisted into a mess, it was so long and hard that even a horn comb couldn't scratch it.

My eyes locked onto the hairpin, which was as long as a chopstick, covered with silver patterns, one end was sharp as a thorn, and the other end was shaped like a skull.The skull was the size of a palm, and its eye sockets were inlaid with turquoise.

Apart from the somewhat evil appearance, the hairpin is nothing special.

"What are you doing sneakily? Are you sent by that bastard Concubine Hui to murder my concubine?" The old lady turned her head and cast her pale eyes on me.

I endured the stinky smell from her hair and pretended to take care of it with my hands. While she was not paying attention, I gently removed the hairpin with my hands.

The old lady tilted her neck, but she didn't notice my small movements. I took a deep breath, kept my hands from shaking too much, and put the hairpin into my pocket.

After tidying with a horn comb for a long time, the old lady seemed very satisfied, but she couldn't see it, but she took out a bronze mirror from her bosom, and sat there blindly to take a picture.

Taking advantage of her looking in the mirror, I quietly backed out, and as soon as I got to the corridor, the old lady suddenly yelled in a shrill voice: "How dare you steal my concubine's things!?"

My mind was blank at the time, and I was just about to run for my life, when I saw the old lady sprinting over from the straw mat like a big bird, at a weirdly fast speed!

I immediately realized that this mountain spirit was much faster than me, and it was almost impossible to run past her.

There was a table next to me, and I saw the old lady screaming and rushing towards me. I didn't have time to think about it, so I immediately got under the table.

The old lady flinched, froze for a moment, and grabbed it horizontally!
Her nails were as long and sharp as razor blades, and she grabbed onto the stone wall, leaving five scratches.

This power is too terrifying, if she grabs the forehead, my head will fly out!

At that time, I was clenching my teeth and hiding under the table, not daring to move. The old lady went completely crazy, scratching and scratching at the air with both hands, and started talking nonsense:

"Witch, little maidservant, come out! You're just a lowly brat, how dare you plot against my concubine?"

Suddenly, the cave was filled with gloomy winds, and the strange force of the old lady's arms was deafening.The candle was swept down by the wind and ignited the straw on the ground, and the flames suddenly flew.

The fire started to spread, and her shroud was burned, but she didn't seem to feel it at all.

I thought, the yang fire in the world cannot burn through the mountain spirit, the old lady soon turned into a burning man, and the madman waving his hands and shouting was even more sinister.

I squatted under the table, looking for a chance to escape, but the old lady was always guarding the entrance of the corridor. When a person is about to die, his potential will explode.

At that time, I was quick to wit, and quietly reached out to the table, touched two empty bowls, and threw them away.

Attracted by the noise, the old lady rushed over, and I immediately mustered up all my strength and rushed into the corridor.

I ran all the way, afraid of being heard panting, I had to cover my mouth and run, and I was about to leave the cave, when I suddenly felt a chill on my back, I glanced from the corner of my eye, and the old lady was haunting follow me.

She looked hideous and terrifying now, and the face she rushed over was so scary that I ran out with my scalp numb.

The old lady followed closely behind, screaming like a snake: "Little maidservant! I will let Mr. Xu arrest you and send you to the cold palace! Cut off your limbs and make you into a human pig!"

I lost my strength, slipped, and fell to the ground. I saw the old lady and rushed over.

At this time, a cloud of black air came instantly, and a slender long hand stretched out from the thick fog, pulling me away violently.

The moment I pulled it away, the old lady pounced on where I was just now, waved her hand, and directly drew a clearly visible mark on the stone wall.But the hand that pulled me was amazingly strong, and I backed away about ten meters in a blink of an eye. When I was still in shock, I couldn't help but turn my head and take a look.

After the fog and dust cleared, a dark and majestic figure appeared in front of me.

My face was covered with dust and dirt, and I was in a terrible state of distress. When I saw clearly that it was him, I was a little excited besides being surprised.

"You dare to annoy this kind of thing, do you think you have a long life?" He reprimanded in a low voice.

"Chu...Chu Yuan?"

I muttered in a low voice, a little unbelievable that he would appear here at this time.

Chu Yuan just nodded slightly, and then said to me, "You go out first!"

While speaking, he raised his hand and drew a dharma pattern in the air, his fingertips were covered with a white cold glow, and the dharma rune in the void floated to the old lady's body, smoldering smoke.

The old lady seemed to be frozen in place, babbling.

"You...why are you here?" I asked in a low voice.

He tilted his head slightly and smiled, "What do you think?"

He is... come to save me! ?

"Don't talk, you get out of here first."

Chu Yuan turned his face towards the old lady, and his voice was calm.

This is not the time to ask him something, because I think the next scene will be a bit bloody, so I'd better leave here.

I stumbled out of the cave and ran out of it. After I got out, I stopped.

Turning his head to look at the bottomless cave again, there was no sound from inside, but about five or six minutes later, wisps of white smoke drifted out from the cave.

"Have you got the things?" Grandma Yin asked after looking at the cave to make sure that the mountain spirit would not come after her.

I took out the hairpin from my pocket, and Grandma Yin took it over to look at it, and praised: "That's it! I didn't expect you, a girl, to be able to take it out."

I was a little shocked, but fortunately, this trip was not in vain. The fright and sweat I received along the way was worth it.

"Go back!" Grandma Yin greeted me when she saw that the matter had been settled.

I turned around and glanced at the cave, but I didn't tell Grandma Yin about Chu Yuan. Instead, I changed the subject and said, "My brother is still waiting for me to go back to save his life, so I won't go back with grandma now. I will definitely do it next time." Come to grandma's house to thank you!"
