After converting to Qingqing Dao, my little junior sister went crazy

Chapter 23

The mother and daughter in the room looked at each other. The woman sighed and said slowly: "Girl, you don't know something. Recently, a man-eating monster appeared in our village. At first, only the man was missing. Later, the old man and the woman slowly disappeared. People also started to disappear. Those people disappeared at night, and now no one in the village dares to go out at night."

The woman paused. In the darkness, Shujue could see that her face was pale. She shivered violently as she spoke. She said, "I don't know if it's because everyone doesn't go out at night, so the monster can't catch anyone." , started knocking on the door and killing people at home, five people have died this month.”

Knock on the door and enter the house to kill someone?Five more killed?Shu Jue had a clear look on her face. No wonder no one answered when she knocked on the door. Only after she made a sound did they dare to open the door.

"My name is Zhenniang, and this is my daughter Ayan. I'm so sorry just now. Now there are only Ayan and I at home, so we have to be more careful." Zhenniang looks 23 or [-] years old, with a thin figure but a high belly High bulge.Shu Jue couldn't tell how many months had passed since she was born. She just felt that she seemed very tired and her speech was weak.

Ayan beside her was as thin as she was, her face was a bit thin and out of shape, she had a pointed chin, and a pair of deeply sunken almond eyes that should have been beautiful, and her eyes were filled with a lifeless look that shouldn't be there at her age.

Zhenniang asked Ayan to clean up a room for Shujue, and also asked her to put some dry straw and cotton wool on the bed, saying that it would be warmer when sleeping.

She herself fumbled to relight the candles in the room.

It was already late autumn, and the night was even colder. There was firewood prepared in the house. Zhenniang lit a fire in the earthen kang in the middle, and then blew out the candles.

Shu Jue was embarrassed to let such a young child make her own bed, so she waved her hands and said that she could sleep anywhere she wanted.

Ever since she lay on the fire stick and wielded the sword, it was like opening the door to a new world. She could lie on any branch outside - although she usually didn't sleep at night.

People who cultivate immortality, especially those who encounter bottlenecks like her, are very energetic at night.

However, she refused, and the mother and daughter still found things for her to make her bed. Shujue thanked her and made the bed herself. "

After tidying up the room, the three of them sat in the main room. The shadows on the wall danced and trembled with the firelight. Ayan leaned closely against her mother, her thin body shaking a little because of the cold.

It was already late autumn, but the mother and daughter were still wearing summer clothes.Even though I had several summer clothes on me, they couldn't protect me from the severe cold.

Shujue thought for a while and searched for a long time in the storage bag before she found a larger plush blanket. She handed it to Zhenniang and her daughter: "You should cover yourself with this blanket first. It's cold at night, so don't catch a cold."

Pulling things out of thin air?Mother Zhen and her son were both shocked, and immediately stood up and kowtowed to Shujue, "Immortal, I don't know that there is nothing to entertain the immortal when he comes to the house. I hope the immortal will not blame you."

"I'm not an immortal." Shu Jue avoided it deftly. "I am a direct disciple of the Qing Hong Sect's leader. My name is Shu Jue. I came here to practice."

Zhenniang refused to listen and insisted on pulling her daughter to kowtow to Shujue. She lay on the ground and refused to get up no matter what she said: "Please save us, immortal!"

Since the monster appeared, the whole village could only spend the night in fear, praying that the monster would not find them.

Who wouldn’t want to have a good night’s sleep if possible?

Now they always feel that monsters will come out of nowhere if they close their eyes. It doesn't matter if ordinary people can't sleep well for a day or two. For a full month or two, Zhenniang has not had a good sleep. Now she sees Shu Jue , it’s like grabbing a life-saving straw.

Shu Jue had no choice but to grab the blanket and force it into the hands of the mother and daughter: "You cover it with this blanket first. Don't worry, I will help you deal with the monster."

She looked young, but the mother and daughter obviously didn't look down on her just because she looked young. After all, in some folk dramas, the appearance of an immortal never changes.So without Shujue's knowledge, she was treated as an old monster pretending to be young by the mother and daughter in front of her.

With the status of "immortal", the mother and daughter were obviously more reserved in front of Shujue, but they were reserved. Before Shujue asked, Zhenniang took the initiative to tell what happened in the village recently.

The village is called Linshui Village, so named because the village is close to the river.

Most of the villagers in Linshui Village make a living by fishing. It is far from the county seat and life is not easy for everyone.

Zhenniang was married to the village next door and came back to visit her relatives. Unexpectedly, she encountered something like this.
The first missing person in the village was an alcoholic who disappeared on an unknown day more than a month ago.

Because he has no family, he has little contact with the villagers on weekdays. He lies around drunk every day and no one cares about him.

It was only after the second person disappeared that everyone discovered that no one had seen the drunkard who used to sleep around after being drunk for a long time.

Then came the second, third...

Zhenniang was scared and wanted to leave with her daughter, but no matter which way she walked, how long or how far she walked, she would end up back at the entrance of the village inexplicably. The same goes for other villagers. No one could get out of the village.

After more than 20 men died in the village, women and the elderly also began to suffer. And because everyone stayed shut up at night, the monster began to knock on the door of every house, and whoever opened the door would suffer.

"The food at home has been eaten up a long time ago. As you can see, I really can't go up the mountain to find food like this. The two of us can only rely on Ayan to go to the mountain during the day to pick some wild vegetables and get some rice. Something to drink.”

Ordinary people can't get enough to eat like this, let alone Zhenniang still has one in her belly, which is when she needs nutrition.

"You guys eat these first." Shujue took out some cooked food and gave them to them.

The storage bag has a freshness-keeping function, so you don’t have to worry about the cooked food going bad if you throw it in.

Zhenniang was flattered and took the food, thanked her and shared it with Ayan.

She was so hungry that she didn't refuse.

Seeing that they had finished eating, Shujue got up and took out the straw and cotton wool that had been laid out in the room, and spread them in the main room under the puzzled eyes of Zhen Niang and her daughter.

"It should be quite cold in the room. There is a fire here. You can rest in the main room tonight and sleep peacefully. I will watch here and the monster will not come in."

In fact, it doesn't matter if there is no firewood. Shujue's fire root can still keep the mother and daughter warm through the night.

Zhenniang was crying and wanted to kowtow to Shujue again. She was so frightened that she immediately put on a straight face and pretended to be angry: "If you do this again, I will leave Linshui Village tomorrow." Zhenniang then gave up.
