172. Gourd Bites

When Xia Shu was stabbed, the other elders also reacted, but after they confirmed Xia Shu's death, the elders who attacked Xia Shu were nowhere to be seen.

Xia Yi stayed in this timeline for two more days, and it was not until the third day that the villagers found the elder who attacked Xia Shu.

Xia Yi followed him to a pit in the mountains in the north. The elder was in the pit. His eyes were closed and there were dense holes on his body, with dark red blood flowing in the holes.

"It must have been silenced by the person instructed behind the scenes!" the villagers guessed.

Xia Yi agreed halfway to this sentence.

He looked to his right, and there was a short and thin boy standing there, that was Xia Yuan, another young master besides Xia Shu and Xia Yi, who was also Xia Qing's master, and the master of Xia Shu's death.

This incident must have been created by him.

After deeply looking at Xia Yuan who was secretly teasing her female subordinates, Xia Yi withdrew his gaze.

He looked around again and found a woman from the royal sister-in-law, Xia Ke, the fourth young master.

Xia Ke also noticed Xia Yi. She came to Xia Yi and said, "What do you think? Who instructed the second elder?"

Her voice was the same as her appearance, full of maturity. Looking at her, Xia Yi couldn't help but think of Fang Bei of the Green Snake Society.

"The second elder may not be ordered." Xia Yi replied.

"What do you mean?" Xia Ke raised his eyebrows.

Xia Yi remembered again that he had obviously delayed Xia Qing once before, but Xia Shu was still kidnapped.

That's because the little girl with a doll turned into Xia Qing's appearance.

The second elder may have been replaced before the ceremony began.

"Are you saying that someone pretended to be the second elder?" Although he did not get Xia Yi's answer, Xia Ke continued, "I have never heard of such a ghost killing bloodline."

"Maybe it's evil."

"This is impossible. With the protection of the ancestor god, there is no evil spirit to get to the village."

After hearing Xia Ke's words, Xia Yi frowned. Compared to her fake young master, Xia Ke is the real young master. She said that there would be no evil spirits entering the village, and there should be no one.

It’s not a ghost, nor a ghost killer, what is that?

"Can you turn into a corpse like someone else?" Xia Yi asked again.

"When the ceremony is held, all the corpses will be taken off." Xia Ke once again denied Xia Yi's speculation.

Xia Yi had no choice.

Forget it, no matter what this does, I just need to be able to complete the ceremony.

Thinking of this, Xia Yi relaxed.

This is just a game. Although I can’t find clues at one place, it doesn’t take too long to worry about it. I’m not fully capable of controlling it.

Moreover, this incident was not completely without clues. The little girl who met Xia Qing that night and was holding a doll was a breakthrough.

But don’t worry, the most important thing is to carry out the ceremony.

The reading file returned to October 17th, the day before the ceremony. When Xia Shu arrived in the evening, Xia Yi warned the girl to pay attention to the attack of the second elder.

If Xia Yi and Xia Shu were just ordinary brother-sister relationships, Xia Shu would not believe Xia Yi, but Xia Shu had a total of ninety-three points in favor of Xia Yi.

"I will pay attention." Xia Shu did not doubt or ask how Xia Yi knew.

The next day, the ceremony was held normally.

This time, unlike the previous world line, before the ceremony began, Xia Yi met the mother with this body.

The woman was waiting for Xia Yi not far from the attic gate. Xia Yi walked forward, greeted him casually, and thought about why this time was different from the previous world line.

Is it because I reminded Xia Shu?

"Something happened." The woman and Xia Yi said, "The earth veins were attacked last night, and your awakening ceremony may fail."

Xia Yi didn't care about the attacks of the earth veins, but the fact that the awakening ceremony might fail made Xia Yi very concerned.

It was her reminder to Xia Shu that Xia Yuan knew about it, so Xia Yuan did this on purpose to disgust herself?

Xia Yi thought of this possibility.

"Go, there is still a high probability that you can succeed." After leaving this sentence, the woman left the attic.

Xia Yi entered the attic and performed a ceremony as usual.

When the last step came, the second elder came out to attack Xia Shu again, but was stopped by the third elder next to him. The other elders who reacted also rushed forward, but they still couldn't keep the second elder.

Why did the second elder come and attack? His warning to Xia Shu was not exposed? What happened to the earth veins?

Xia Yi was puzzled.

After the episode, the ceremony continued, and Xia Shu poured the water from the long wooden spoon on Xia Yi's body.

The water was very hot, and the part of Xia Yi's body and the water flowing through it also became hot. The heat penetrated his skin and came into his blood vessels. His blood slowly boiled.

What followed was severe pain, but compared to the previous various ways of dying, this pain was acceptable.

Next to them, the nine elders looked at Xia Yi. In their eyes, they were originally curious and teasing, but gradually turned into amazement.

They whispered in a low voice:

"Boy Yi didn't call out at all!"

"The older you get, the more your blood boils. This pain is amazing!"

"Not a word at all, I have the style of my back then!"

"Hey, I remember someone fainted in pain back then!"

"Can my affairs be called fainting? It is loss of consciousness. Losing consciousness is not called fainting!"

"Okay, maybe the ceremony failed and there was no blood at all."

"Boy Xia Yi is also a clan family after all. A little change in the earth's veins should not affect the awakening of bloodlines."

"Look, it's successful!"

The elders' eyes were on Xia Yi again, and they saw a phantom of a yellow gourd gathering around Xia Yi.

"There is actually a phantom. Shuyao wasn't that clear when she was a child!"

"Xia Shu is nine years old. Xia Yi is so old, so you are just a good person!"

"You can't say that, after all, you're awakening."

Without paying attention to the elders' whispers, Xia Yi's eyes were pitch black at this time. He found that he had come to the same dark space as when he saw the green snake in Yuqi City before.

In the space, there is a yellow-colored gourd, one person tall.

Below the gourd, there was a big mouth full of sharp teeth, which opened and closed, biting hard on his shoulder.

!!!

After suddenly awakening, Xia Yi found that he was already lying on the bed.

When I opened the curtains, it was already pitch black outside. I looked at the bedside where the little maid was lying there, asleep.

Has the ceremony been completed?

What changes have happened to you?
