Chapter 52 Dead

"what!"

Granny Sun shouted, opening her mouth so wide that her tonsils could be seen at a glance.

She slammed the door, turned her back, and pressed her butt against the door.

There's...there's a tree monster!
  "I know how to yell nonsense all day long." The old man turned over, "If you keep making noises, go out and sleep by yourself!"

Mrs. Sun's back felt so cold that she didn't say a word.

After a moment of silence, she trembled with her mouth and pretended to be calm, turning her head and opening the door.

She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, but this time she saw nothing.

Outside the courtyard, there was thunder and lightning, heavy wind and light rain. Except for the row of trees in front of Wang Daying's house, which rustled in the wind, there was nothing.

Could it be that I saw it wrong?

Grandma Sun breathed a sigh of relief. She closed the door and climbed into bed with cold hands and feet.

At this moment, her inner thoughts were rarely consistent with the old man's.

The family should not be separated.

With this separation, everything will go wrong!
  Outside the hospital.

Susheng casually walked from behind the tree to the front.

Sure enough, rather than letting Granny Sun die peacefully, she still wanted to see her old and helpless and frightened.

Su Sheng climbed over the yard and jumped up to the brick house where Uncle Su and his wife lived.

Taking away the two tiles, you can have a panoramic view of the situation inside the house.

Su Zifeng was lying on the bed sickly, and Su Ziqing was sleeping on the recliner next to his bed.

It’s so lucky that you don’t even die.

Su Sheng frowned, took off the knife from the sandwich of her shoe, tied the handle of the knife with one end of the vine strip, and pointed the tip of the knife at the person on the bed.

"Um..."

Su Zifeng turned sideways, hugged the quilt next to him and rolled inside.

The tip of the knife, glowing with cold light, was inserted into the air.


  Susheng did not believe in evil and came several times, but the chain was broken every time.

In a fit of anger, she aimed at Su Ziqing who was sleeping on the chair.

"what!"

This time, she hit it right.

The vines stretched and contracted at extremely fast speeds. When Su Ziqing woke up, he could only vaguely see a phantom.

He lowered his head, bewilderedly covering his bleeding chest.

He didn't dare to move, he just cried out for help over and over again: "Third brother, wake up, save me... Third brother..."

On the bed, Su Zifeng only moved his eyelashes, showing no intention of waking up.

Out of survival instinct, Su Ziqing could only move a little bit from the chair.

He stumbled to the door and went to open it.

"Dad...Mom..."

Along with a roar, all his cries for help were muffled.

The door opened, and what came into view was the strange figure at the door.

Su Ziqing's pupils dilated unconsciously. Under the dim light, he couldn't see clearly the face under the ivy mask, but the vines inserted directly into his chest made him unable to make a sound.

"Pfft..."

The chaotic vines seemed to be stirred into the pool, making a muffled popping sound.

Su Sheng closed her eyes, and she seemed to hear Lin Yang's voice again: If you ask me, your second cousin is really cruel. In this cold day, he didn't give you food or drink, and he killed your brother alive. Starved to death in that little dark room.

The smiling face of the younger brother and the figure curled up and dying in the cold winter overlapped at this moment.

Su Sheng moved her fingers and quickly retracted the vines that had penetrated Su Ziqing's chest.

There was a muffled "bang" sound, Su Ziqing opened his eyes wide and completely lost his breath.

Scarlet blood flowed silently in the room, and Su Sheng walked slowly past him.

She came to Su Zifeng's bed, and several vines shot out from the red awning behind her. It's really useless, I have to take action. ]
  The cold machine sound of the system sounded.

At the same time, Su Zifeng's body began to be filled with black energy.

"Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!"

Thick black mist surrounded them, and all the vines were broken, making a harsh sound.

Susheng's pupils shrank and she staggered back.

She activated her powers and tried to control the ivy to resist the mist.

Realizing that the black mist could pass through the vines and was still trying to erode her eyes, Su Sheng did not dare to linger any longer and stepped out of the door stepping on the corpse on the ground.

As she left, the strange black mist gradually dissipated and returned to Su Zifeng's body little by little.

……

The end of the village.

After Susheng ran away, she didn't dare to stay longer. After walking a certain distance, she slowed down, took off her disguise, and walked slowly home.

She lowered her head and looked at the black mark on her palm, her heart already sinking to the bottom.

She did not see the system appear twice, and she thought the system was just a charade and had no effect.

Unexpectedly, the damage caused by that thing was quite large. She used up the remaining powers to treat it but could only dilute part of the black mark.

Feeling the stinging pain on her palms, Susheng couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

That black energy was definitely not something Su Zifeng could control. Otherwise, when she attacked him at the gate of the courtyard, how could Su Zifeng let her do it?
  Does this mean that the system will only take action if there is a real threat to Su Zifeng's life?
  Or maybe the system cannot take action frequently?

Susheng squinted her eyes, stood on the small slope, and looked back at the village.

Looking around, there were dark houses, and the whole village was silent.

At this time, it was still raining lightly in the sky, there were no stars, and the surroundings seemed extremely dark.

The vines can't block the black air, she should try purifying it.

I don’t know if the system has any trump cards, and what is its true strength?

After exploring the energy stone in her body, Su Sheng frowned slightly.

The energy of this weed is used up too quickly.

Although she could automatically recover some of her energy after sleeping, she felt a little uneasy when she looked at the black marks on her palms.

After thinking for a while, Su Sheng quickly ran up the mountain along the winding dirt road.

Under the night, her figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.

When she appeared again, she was in front of the thatched house at the foot of the mountain.

Looking up, the lights in Sumo's room had been turned off.

The things in the courtyard were neatly stacked in the thatched shed. It looked like my brother and the others had come out to clean them up when they saw it raining.

The fence in the courtyard would make a creaking sound when it was pulled. For fear of waking them up, Susheng did not go through the main entrance, but directly supported the wooden stake next to it with her hands and climbed in.

She returned to her room, opened the window, slowly took off her shawl, wrung out the water, and hung it on the window rail next to her to dry.

After putting on clean clothes, she sat on the edge of the bed and stared at the wet shoes next to her, thoughtfully.

Do you want to get rid of these shoes?
  If nothing else, Su Zifeng had already recognized her.

And she seemed to be looking forward to it.

Susheng lay down and covered herself with the quilt. She turned her hand over, looked at the palm of her hand with the black mark gone, and slowly closed her eyes.

……

Early the next morning, a carriage staggered into Daxing Village.

As soon as I arrived at the village, I heard someone crying.

When he discovered that the crying was coming from Miss Susheng's hometown, Yuan Qi couldn't help but take another look.

"Master, there seems to be a death in that house."

On the carriage, Qi Shuheng raised his eyelids and a hint of gloom appeared between his brows, "If a dead person is reported to the official, we don't need to take care of this kind of thing."

Yuan Qi responded and drove toward the foot of the mountain.
