The fourteenth volume, the thirty-seventh chapter, the three brothers and sisters of the Yao family

The central area of ​​the island of Danshui Island is called the "central town". Hongluo Academy, which mainly trains Qi training masters, is not close to the central town, and is about fifteen kilometers away. Because of this, Hongluo Academy is a boarding school, but the Bone Night Festival is an exception. Most boarding students will go home on this night.

Therefore, Hongluo Academy is empty on the night of the Bone Night Festival.

However, this night... there was someone there at Hongluo Academy.

A slightly old door was gently pushed open. What was exposed was a young man wearing a pair of glasses, and behind the young man was another curly-haired girl.

"Really...to be on this night?"

"That's certain." The young man with glasses said with a cold expression: "Hongluo Academy... may be the place that the island is most valued by the island. Only at this time today will there be no one in Hongluo Academy. There will be no better chance."

"But? Tonight is the Bone Night Festival. It will be very dangerous to stay outside, right?"

"So the saying goes, staying outside is also a very ambiguous concept. After all, we are indoors now. And even if something happens, I can protect you. After all, I am one of the best Qi training masters in this class."

"But... Qi training master is not..."

"And don't forget, we also bring the... moon shadow statue that has been opened! Aren't we?"

Hearing this sentence, the curly-haired girl showed a hint of peace of mind.

The moon shadow statue that has been opened after light is naturally completely different from the ordinary moon shadow statue. Such moon shadow statue is extremely precious and there are not many on the entire island. It is too incredible that this young man with glasses can actually hold one!

"Okay, let's go, Saxue. Hongluo Academy, there must be secret information related to the Forbidden Mountain. I must find that information..."

On the stagnant island, different families are still waiting for the arrival of the "pick dealer".

"Swoosh"!

A dart hit the bulls' eye quickly!

"I said... can you listen to me and have a conversation?"

In a room, there was a man and a woman, who looked very young, and they were less than twenty years old.

The man who was throwing the dart was a tall man. Next to him was a woman with short hair. The woman with short hair showed an uneasy expression and said, "I don't know, how is Lingxi's situation..."

"It's okay..." The man who threw the dart shrugged, "The ghost card game is a tradition of the Bone Night Festival for many years, and nothing has ever happened."

"But..." The short-haired woman grabbed the hem of her skirt uneasily: "This year's Bone Night Festival came very late, and it was even so close to the "Moon Shadow Festival"... I was a little uneasy."

The Bone Night Festival is not a festival on a specific date. The Bone Night Festival will only come when the left eye of the moon shadow crys. This is a fact recognized by everyone on the island. The Bone Night Festival is usually in the first half of the year, and the frequency is the most frequent in February and March. However, this year's Bone Night Festival actually occurs in October near the end of the year, which is very rare in nearly ten years. In terms of time... it is too close to the Moon Shadow Festival.

"Although... you are Han Lingxi's fiancée, you seem to be too concerned."

"Don't say that...I..." Speaking of this, she paused and said, "To put it bluntly... there is a saying. This time, the Bone Night Festival came so late because Huang Shanyun violated the ban and entered the Forbidden Mountain, the Bone Night Festival came so late..."

"Is it important to be early or late in the Bone Night Festival?"

"Many people use the Bone Night Festival to predict the good or bad luck within a year, but it makes people feel that it is so late..."

The man put the dart down and looked at the short-haired woman beside him.

"Humyuki? Are you affected by Sayuki?"

“Is there any…?”

"I think there is."

"Anyway, I don't want the Spirit Seal to draw the ghost card. He will soon welcome the Moon Shadow Festival when he graduates. If he draws the ghost card at this time, I'm worried...what an unlucky situation will happen then."

For the islanders of the Dead Water Island, they are very convinced of everything related to Moon Shadow. Drawing the ghost card means bad luck, which is a saying that has been circulating on the Dead Water Island for a long time. And when the Moon Shadow Festival is about to come...

"And, not only that. After the Moon Shadow Festival, it will be the wedding date for Lingxi and I..."

"This is actually what you care about the most, right?"

"Although that's right..."

"But, it's useless for you to think about it here, right? After all, ghost cards are randomly drawn. No matter how worried you are..."

"No... there is a way." But Chunxue was inspired at this time: "In fact, Saxue told me a way... If we were to draw cards, as long as we didn't draw ghost cards, then... we would make a mark on the cards we drew! In this way, when others draw cards in the future, those who understand this mark can draw this card!"

The man who threw the dart was completely stunned.

"Are you kidding me? Chunxue?"

"I'm like kidding?"

Immediately, the man realized... what Chunxue said was true!

"You..." He rushed to Chunxue and said, "Don't really play like that! This is cheating! If you are discovered..."

"Ah? There is any rule in the ghost card game that says, is it strictly forbidden to mark on playing cards? No?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then thought carefully, and indeed... he had never said that!

"Even so,..."

"All the rules related to the ghost card game are answers made by Qi trainers through communication with the Moon Shadow God. So, there is no explicit prohibition, that is, it means agreeing. Originally... don't you think that putting the cards you have drawn back is a way to encourage marking? As long as you prepare more than a dozen new decks of playing cards, there will be no problem of marking. So..."

However, when he said this, a trace of shiny appeared on the man's face.

"I can be sure... this is definitely not what Saxue said!"

"Well? This is indeed what Saxue told me?"

"Saxue is not so smart. It's not wrong. It must be Su Qingchan who told Saxue about these things! It's definitely him!"

"Su...Su Qingchan?"

"Yes, you can't tell it, right? It's obvious that she is in love with Su Qingchan?"

On the stagnant island, the smaller population and the large demand for labor naturally lead to encouragement policies for childbirth. On this island, no one will be condemned. Men are as long as they are at least sixteen years old and women are as long as they are at least fourteen years old. Therefore, most people will get married and have children when they are students, and if they are over twenty years old, they can be considered leftover men and women.

"I guess after the Moon Shadow Festival, Su Qingchan and Saxue will go to the island office to register for marriage."

"So... did this idea come from Su Qingchan?"

"Yes, I'm afraid... she said she was having a night at her friend's house for the Bone Night Festival, but I'm afraid she was staying at Su Qingchan's house."

"What?"

Chunxue was immediately shocked: "Brother... are you... telling the truth?"

"What are you doing with such a fuss? Saxue is no longer a child. She can do whatever she wants."

"You are the eldest brother at all!"

"It's okay. Even if something really happens, just make up for the procedures afterwards."

"Yao Shichen!"

"Okay, OK...not to mention this, the thing you mentioned just now is to mark..."

The room began to fall into silence again.

"About this... Saxue mentioned to me. As long as he made a mark in advance, he could see Lingxi clearly. However, I did not tell Lingxi directly, but hinted him, so that as long as he saw the mark, he would know what was going on."

"The premise is that you draw cards before Han Lingxi?"

In the ghost card game, it is unregular who will draw who will draw afterwards, and it has never been related to the distance between the housing and the island office.

"Well... there is no way if that's the case. But there is always this possibility. Moreover, if Saxue draws the cards first, she can also mark it. She should be separated from us because of this."

And at this moment...

There was a knock on the door outside! (To be continued.)
