It was very dark in the prison, and it was almost impossible to see. An oil lamp was hung at the entrance of the prison, near the window. The window was sealed. The wind blew in through the gap in the window, and the dim yellow light swayed in and out, swaying out.

An atmosphere of terror.

The prison was very quiet, with the occasional sound of mice gnawing. The old man lay peacefully in the hay and fell asleep.

Gu Liuxi sat alone in the cell, unwilling to fall asleep.

How could she sleep in such a bad situation?

It's not that the environment is bad, it's just that I'm too worried to sleep.

I don’t know how the National Preceptor’s investigation is going, which is really worrying.

The night wind suddenly blew in from outside the door, the sealed windows made a loud noise, and the oil lamp in front of the window was blown out.

Gu Liuxi raised her eyes, and the end of the prison was suddenly covered by a thick smoke, which was rolling towards her.

This scene is just like the ghost show on TV.

Gu Liuxi was really frightened. I heard that there were the most innocent ghosts in the prison.

I’m so scared, what should I do?

The smoke is getting closer.

Gu Liuxi yelled and crawled to the old man's side.

The old man who was lying in the haystack seemed to feel the unusual atmosphere and opened his eyes suddenly.

Gu Liuxi immediately grabbed his arm and hid behind him, trembling, "Yes, there is a ghost..."

In the thick fog, an arm attacked the cell blankly. The old man quickly grabbed Gu Liuxi's arm and dodged.

The hand was chasing after them, and the old man didn't know what spell he was chanting. As soon as the hand came close to them, it was blocked, and the richness instantly retreated.

Gu Liuxi was in shock, what on earth was going on?

What exactly was attacking them?

The old man quickly took out a few yellow paper charms from his arms and threw them over his head. The paper charms were instantly attached to the prison door.

After the old man finished all this, he came back to look at Liu Xi's pale face and comforted him, "Don't be afraid. I'm here and won't let any monsters hurt you."

After the fortune telling, Gu Liuxi already thought that the old man was a charlatan, but she didn't expect that he really had two tricks up his sleeve!

Gu Liuxi looked at the old man and nodded firmly, "Yeah."

Fortunately, the old man is here.

she thought movedly.

However, at this time, the retreating white mist began to spread again, and this time it was so fast that no one could prepare for it.

Fortunately, the old man put a charm on the cell door early in the morning.

Bai Wu could only hesitate at the cell door and was unable to enter.

The white fog was getting bigger and bigger, the cell door was violently shaken by the knocks, and the talismans in front of me could no longer hold up.

The old man hurriedly pulled Qianxun behind him and made a complicated movement to strengthen the power of the spell.

His internal organs had already been damaged by his own backlash, and his strength could only compete with the white mist.

Bloodshot drops came out of the corners of his mouth.

Feeling that the old man was shaking all over, Gu Liuxi's eyes were a little hot and he clenched his finger bones.

There was a loud "bang", and the cell door was blown away. The old man and Gu Liuxi were also thrown out by the powerful spiritual power and fell against the wall.

In the white mist, a monster with long black hair and fox fur swaying its snow-white tail came out.

Step by step, he walked up to Gu Liuxi, raised his slender fingers, and lifted her from the corner of the wall.

Gu Liuxi held her neck in pain, as if her neck was pinched by an invisible hand, making her breathless and difficult to breathe, and her whole little face was wrinkled together.

The old man wanted to help Gu Liuxi, but he couldn't move at all.

"stop…"

A gust of wind suddenly hit behind the fox girl, and she had to throw Gu Liuxi away and turn around to fight.

For a time, the prison was filled with murderous intent, swords flashed, and various spells destroyed the prison.

Gu Liuxi covered her neck and coughed dryly.

***, she discovered a very serious problem. After she came to this world, she was often strangled by the neck, and it was the kind of strangulation to death.

Depend on……

Gu Liuxi struggled up from the ground, only to realize that the person fighting with the fox girl was actually Chi Hengshuixie, whom he hadn't seen for several days.

He hadn't seen him since that night when he was drunk.

Unexpectedly, he would appear here at such a critical moment.

Gu Liuxi walked over and helped the old man up, and said worriedly, "Old man, are you okay?"

"Ah... old man, your hands..."

As soon as Gu Liuxi touched the old man's arm, his whole arm seemed to be corroded by something, and terrible water bubbles appeared.

The old man lost his usual laughter and raised a bitter smile on his lips, "I have revealed too many secrets in my life, this is my retribution!"

"Don't say that..." Gu Liuxi looked at the old man distressedly. Although she had known the old man for only a day, he was already a good friend of hers.

Just now he used his life to protect her.

Blood continued to flow from the corner of the old man's mouth, but he forced himself to put on a plain smile, "It's a blessing, not a curse, and you can't avoid it. Life and death are nothing to me. The most regretful thing in my life is that I can't count you."

My fate was reversed, this is retribution, retribution..."

"Old man..."

Gu Liuxi's eyes were slightly red.

The old man put his hand on the back of Gu Liuxi's hand, "Girl! There are three people that I can't count. One is the Cangyue Empire's National Preceptor Wuwei, the second is the Cangyue Empire's Seventh Prince, and the third one is you... no matter what

So, please follow your heart..."

Gu Liuxi nodded, "Yes, old man, I understand. Don't say anything yet. I'll go find the doctor."

As soon as Gu Liuxi turned around, the old man closed his eyes.

She suddenly seemed to feel something, and the old man had closed his eyes peacefully.

"No...you don't want to die, don't die...I'm going to find someone, don't die..." Gu Liuxi suddenly threw herself on the old man's body in pain, and the old man's heartbeat had completely stopped beating.

Why, why did everyone who had anything to do with her die.

Why, why is this?

Gu Liuxi clenched her fist tightly, her nails digging deeply into her flesh, but she didn't notice it at all.

His pupils suddenly widened, and a long-suppressed hatred surged out.

There was thunder and lightning in the sky outside the window, and the wind and rain fell heavily.

A thunderbolt woke up the imperial master in Cangyue Palace. He suddenly got up from the bed, opened the door, and looked at the windy, rainy, thundering and lightning night with his cold eyes, frowning.

His calculations are fast and the secret passage is not good.

"Here comes someone."

"National Master..."

In the darkness, several people appeared instantly and knelt in front of him.

"Prepare the sedan chair and go to Tianlao."

"yes…"
