death

Chapter 19 What a Big Conspiracy
When I saw the little bone hand scratching my ankle, I jumped up in fright. I wanted to jump out of the grave, but because the soil below was a little soft, I didn't jump very high and fell back down. up.

But this time, I just stepped on the little white bone hand that scratched my ankle just now.

"It's over, it's over..."

While I was muttering this sentence, I jumped up again. Although I didn't jump very high this time, I controlled the direction of the jump, jumped directly to the side, and then crawled awkwardly by the edge of the grave. out.

From the beginning to the end, Mai Xiaorou didn't reach out to help me, she just stood aside and "smirked". After I crawled out, she said to me: "Others are shocked, but you are shocked twice." !"

I glared at Mai Xiaorou angrily and wanted to get angry, but she quickly leaned towards me, and then kissed my cheek with her cold lips. With such a kiss, the anger in my heart dissipated immediately.

Mai Xiaorou continued: "Okay, Chen Yu, calm down, I will apologize to you, you stand behind me now, and I will meet the things in the grave."

I quickly backed away.

Mai Xiaorou pinched a finger and stood on the edge of the grave. She looked at the little bones still moving in the grave and said: "The injustice has its head, and the debt has its owner. There is a cause and effect in the universe, and there is a certainty." , if you have any grievances, you might as well come up one by one, don't make trouble!"

After Mai Xiaorou finished saying this, the little bony hand suddenly stopped moving, and Mai Xiaorou let out a "Huh", as if a little surprised.

I asked Mai Xiaorou what was wrong, she shook her head and said, "I don't know, I just feel something is wrong."

I looked around a few times and didn't feel that there was anything wrong.

"Giggle cluck..."

The laughter of a little boy like a silver bell suddenly came from the grave, and then began to echo on the top of the mountain.

I took a few steps back subconsciously, and then followed the method Mai Xiaorou taught me to adjust my breath. This way of breath adjustment can at least give me a little peace of mind.

Looking at the grave, Mai Xiaorou frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

The little boy's voice drifted out: "I laugh at the two of you who can't protect yourself, yet you come to ask me what grievances I have. A corpse and an ordinary person whose life was borrowed are really interesting couples."

Mai Xiaorou couldn't help but took a step back and said, "Can you see our identities?"

"Oh!"

There was a muffled sound from the grave, and then a three to four meter high earth wave rose up. After the earth wave receded, a child with white bones wrapped in red silk cloth slowly floated out.

Mai Xiaorou backed away quickly, stepped back to my side, and then tried her best to protect me.

I felt Mai Xiaorou's nervousness, even fear.

Seeing the bone child flying out, I was also quite frightened. After Mai Xiaorou approached her, I asked her in a trembling voice: "Is that bone child very powerful?"

Mai Xiaorou said word by word: "Far above me!"

"Ah!" I didn't know what to say.

However, Mai Xiaorou didn't get flustered because of the panic, but raised her head and asked the skeleton boy floating in the air, "Is your surname Liu?"

The child said: "My surname is not Liu, and the person surnamed Liu is what I hate the most. Is there anyone surnamed Liu between you two?"

Mai Xiaorou shook her head and said, "My surname is Mai, his surname is Chen, none of us is surnamed Liu, are you being murdered by someone surnamed Liu?"

Hearing Mai Xiaorou's question, the child with white bones floating in the air suddenly fell slowly to the edge of the grave, and then the soil in the grave rose again, directly covering the bone, and after a while, the dust drifted away. Look at the bone child who has molded a body for himself with clay.

It moved its hands and feet, and it was clearly a moving clay sculpture.

Mai Xiaorou pulled me back a few steps, and the clay child said: "Want to know my story, I can tell you, but as a price, you two will have to live here, For me to refine!"

I immediately shook my head, and Mai Xiaorou also hummed: "Don't be arrogant, I admit that you are very powerful, but if I confront you in a corpse state, you may not be able to get any benefits, At worst, we will all die together.”

Speaking of which, Mai Xiaorou didn't back away, but left me and took a step forward. When she took this step, I felt her whole body suddenly become icy cold, a bone-chilling chill.

I was so cold that I could only shiver, and subconsciously retreated six or seven meters before I got out of the icy range.

The mud sculpture child raised his eyebrows and said: "It's a strong corpse aura, but with your ability, you should not be able to control this corpse aura. If you use this power, your friends will probably be killed by you too." Kill it."

Mai Xiaorou snorted and said, "I borrowed his life, so why not kill him!"

I couldn't help but "thud" in my heart. Is this Mai Xiaorou's heartfelt expression, or is it her words to deceive the clay sculpture child?
The clay sculpture child let out an "oh", and then flew towards me in a red silk cloth, and said at the same time: "Since you want his life too, why don't we kill him now?" Now, and then I will tell you the story slowly."

Without waiting for the child to get close to me, Mai Xiaorou squeezed a finger and hit the clay sculpture child directly. Although the clay sculpture child was made of clay, his body was as light as a butterfly. His body was flying in the air. After shaking for a few times, he dodged Mai Xiaorou's tricks.

However, his attack was also dispelled by Mai Xiaorou. Mai Xiaorou didn't look back at me, but stared at the clay child and said: "His life is mine, no one is allowed to touch him, if you want to touch him again, I'll kill you first."

Mai Xiaorou's voice was extremely cold.

The clay sculpture child said: "Threatening me, I'm not afraid. The people of the Liu family were so terrible back then. They sealed me and wanted to eliminate the hostility in me, but what happened? They asked me to kill the whole family. It's a pity that they sealed me with the blood of the Liu family, and I've been sleeping for so many years, and I still can't leave this nameless mountaintop!"

Mai Xiaoju said: "I didn't threaten you, I just protect what I want to protect!"

The clay sculpture boy let out an "oh" and didn't intend to attack us again. He suddenly turned around and said, "You can go. There was someone who said exactly the same thing as you back then. Your words saved you."

Mai Xiaojudao: "We are here to clarify one thing. More than 20 years ago, two ordinary people stole something from your grave. Do you remember this incident? Those two were just ordinary people. , why did you let them steal your things."

The clay sculpture child was stunned for a while and said: "Those two people, because one of them has the blood of the Liu family, I can't hurt him, and what they stole is not mine, but Liu's family. Come to suppress the Octopus Mirror on my corpse, that Liu who stole it is just right, at least it can let me out of the tomb, but unfortunately, the bloodline of the Liu family is too powerful, and I can't leave the top of the mountain after I get out of the tomb."

Mai Xiaorou asked again: "People from the Liu family, why do you have to be banned?"

The clay sculpture kid said: "You ask too many questions."

While speaking, Mai Xiaorou had already controlled the body aura in her body again, and the cold feeling around her gradually subsided a lot.

Mai Xiaorou said again: "Since the Liu family can seal you, they are also a Daoist family. Since you can slaughter a Daoist family, it can be seen that your strength is terrifying. What is your background?"

The clay sculpture boy said: "Then the Liu family is just a branch, not the real Liu family. If it is the real Liu family's hidden sect, I will not have time to escape!"

The kid who was talking about the clay sculpture suddenly turned his head to look at me, but he didn't say anything, and then turned to look at Mai Xiaorou: "I really envy you that you can borrow his life."

Mai Xiaoju said: "I'm protecting him!"

"Giggle..."

The clay sculpture kid laughed again, and then continued: "Two ordinary people came to dig my grave back then. I know that they were used by someone, and the person who used them just fancy one of them." I personally have the blood of the Liu family, and only with those who have the blood of the Liu family can I go up the mountain safely without disturbing the dead souls of the Liu family. The people who use them know the layout of this place very well. Liberated my body, but this is not their real purpose, when they crack the secret of the Octapolar Mirror, it's time for them to release me!"

Mai Xiaorou asked curiously, "Is it someone from the Tang family who wants to save you?"

"The Tang family, I didn't expect it to be them. It's really beyond my expectation, but they didn't save me, they wanted to use me!" The clay sculpture child said, jumping back into the grave and slowly Lie down.

When Mai Xiaorou and I walked over slowly, the dirt on his body suddenly dissipated with a "squeak", leaving only a pile of white bones on his body.

"Hurry up and go, before I don't want to kill you!" The child's voice sounded again.

Mai Xiaorou didn't hesitate any longer, and directly pulled me on the way down the mountain.

When I was halfway down, Mai Xiaorou said to me: "Then the Tang family may have some big conspiracy. The child on the top of the mountain has evil and hostility to such a degree that it can suffocate people. If you let him out , How many people will be harmed, we must find a way to prevent this from happening."

I asked Mai Xiaorou how to stop it.

She said: "When the moon is full next month, I will give you your life back, and then I will come here to make a settlement with him."

I couldn't help being surprised: "You want to die with him?"

Mai Xiaorou smiled and said, "Why can't you bear me?"

To be honest, I really don't want to part with Mai Xiaorou.

Mai Xiaorou continued: "Don't worry about me, I will come with grandpa when the time comes, with grandpa here, everything should be fine."

I didn't speak any more, and neither did Mai Xiaorou.

Soon we went down the mountain, but when we just reached the foot of the mountain, we heard a burst of dense footsteps coming from a distance.

Looking carefully, I found a group of people running towards us with various agricultural tools such as shovels, hammers, and rakes. They shouted while running: "Catch the thief..."

Could this be the group of villagers who imprisoned Liu Shengfu back then?
