Bloodthirsty Qi

and and pulled me closer to his side.My stomach is much more curved now than before. It used to be flat, but now it looks like a small hill."Only now can you see..." He patted his abdomen with the bac...Long Xiaoge's rhetorical question sent shivers down my spine and my brother's.

This smirk, this cryptic innuendo, so it turns out the gloomy Long Xiaoge is also a seasoned player!

That older sister smiled, loosening her clothes, the complicated beaded flowers on her head swaying with a clinking sound.

My brother, with a pained expression on his face, mouthed to me, "It's heartbreaking!"

He once laughed about the scene, saying it was unbearable to watch others in pain, worse than being stabbed in the heart!

Now, listening to the wall, he simply wanted revenge on society.

The older sister on the other side of the wall pouted with displeasure, "I miss you~~ You should really calculate how long it's been! It's just too much... We're husband and wife... You spend all day worrying about the village affairs, Big Corpse King, Big Corpse King… What does that even mean He's just the Big Corpse King of a single village. Why are you the only one carrying such a heavy burden"

“…I don’t worry, do you come to help me worry” Long Xiaoge’s voice still had no fluctuation.

I'm surprised, could it be that he isn't moved at all

Even if you try your best to suppress it, there will be some fluctuation in the sound, right

"Um... Of course... Um... I can help you... Um..."

A strange noise arose, what is going on

The clatter of beads from my elder sister's headdress sounded like a waterfall. Her voice was broken and incomplete, fragmented as she spoke. My brother gave me a sign…

I couldn't listen any longer, it was too immoral. I quickly reached out and grabbed my brother's hand, signaling him to leave quickly.

Long Xiaogge might seem a bit gloomy, but he was quite polite to me. We heard from the wall that some people weren't very honorable.

My brother wore a reluctant expression and was dragged by me for two steps. Suddenly, there was a shriek from my elder sister behind us: "Ah—"

We were stunned, what was this

Sister, aggrieved asked: "You, how did you push me so hard!"

The sound of rustling clothes came, and Long Xiaogē said coldly, "Put that face away, it won't work on me."

"Big sister's voice was laced with unconcealed anger: "We are husband and wife, what is useless to you! Why won't you let me have your child Isn't raising children not my responsibility"

"What is your responsibility" Long Xiao's voice was cold, without a trace of fluctuation. "Then I ask you, where did my third 'brother' go Why was he stolen"

Sister cried pitifully, "I said it was Situ Lin who stole it! He's so powerful, how can I, just a woman, possibly fight him!"

Long Xiaogē let out a cold snort, didn't respond, and walked away by himself.

My brother muttered under his breath, "I wouldn't have guessed it. Looking at Long Xiaogē, he seems thin and small with a gloomy and taciturn disposition. I never thought he was so capable He could handle such a beautiful wife as he pleases! Hmph, beauties generally have big tempers, and the fact that this beauty is so wronged means he must be a real master of the household!"

My scalp tingled with fear as I whispered, "What third brother Did Situ Lin steal his corpse"

"Definitely." My brother stroked his chin and disposed of the talismans, sending those ghosts to the afterlife.

"What on earth is Situ Lin trying to do Is he hiding somewhere near this village Does he want the Great Corpse King"

“Well, in short, let's go see what the situation is with the Corpse King. If the Corpse King is conscious and can communicate with the villagers' minds, that's good. But if the Corpse King has gone berserk, I estimate that Master Situ Lin will try every means to release the Corpse King to slaughter the villagers and force the Elder to hand over the secret method.”

I listened, my heart pounding with apprehension. I didn't want to wait another second, practically eager for the sun to set.

At the horizon, the sky was painted with hues of evening. I stood on the platform, feeling the mountain breeze against my face as I gazed at the river flowing in the distance, its end tinged red. A few people were making their way home, walking singly along the narrow mountain path, a scene of peaceful tranquility.

But once night falls here, those rows of stilt houses transform into darkened, empty dwellings—most people have gone to smaller towns for a living, some even venturing further afield.

Only women, girls, the elderly, and the infirm remained in this village.

"Lonely"

A gloomy voice echoed behind me.

Long Xiaoge stood on the wooden gallery, staring at me silently.

“…A little bit.” I answered honestly, unable to come up with a kind lie.

"As time passes and the world changes, we are no longer needed during the peaceful times." He suddenly blurted out a sigh.

I don't know how to respond.

"...The Great Corpse King is the embodiment of our tribe's last faith. If the Great Corpse King is taken away, or destroyed, then our entire tribe will be utterly scattered."

He told me this, wanting me to help him, right

"...I, I'll try my best." I nodded at him.

He lowered his eyes faintly: "Mu Xia Qiao, pregnant women here have always been treated with the utmost respect. For our sake, you traveled a long way, and we will remember your kindness."

That's too formal, I feel a little pressured. I waved my hand dismissively and said, "Don't put it that way, we also want to make friends with you guys. Si Tu Lin is too scary, the more friends we have, the better."

He suddenly let out a light chuckle: “ … You certainly don’t lie, not even when you’re trying to.”

Sweat… that's really sorry, I'm not as smart as you guys.

"Come on," he turned and said, "I'll take you to see the Great Death King."

I suddenly blurted out, "Actually, it's not as tragic as you think."

"...What" he turned, looking at me darkly.

I pointed at the river below. "Sometimes, people just go their separate ways because they lack a common goal. But if they have a shared objective, they'll quickly come together. Blood ties never truly disappear."

He stared at me silently and replied faintly, “I hope so.”

We followed Long Xiaogē into the mountains. It was all wild grass and no roads, so I found it very difficult to walk. Long Xiaogē kept turning back to wait for me.

"My lady, you've gone above and beyond! No pregnant woman should be climbing mountains...be careful!" She held onto my arm, looking at me with worry.

My brother comforted me and said, “Hang in there, Xiao Qiao. Just think of it as prenatal exercise, preparing for a smooth delivery.”

His words just made me want to laugh, he has a way of making me smile.

Long Xiaoge led us to a crevice under a cliff face, where there were guards stationed and sentries hidden in the shadows.

This must be it, right

Going into the fissure, I was met with a stench of death, mingled with blood and earth. It was so strong that I had to cover my nose.

"Oh my—what's this!" Meng Shu exclaimed in surprise.

The cold light of the mobile phone flashlight shone on a clump of pink, lying in a pool of blood.said that the area nearby is near the school of Little Goddess, so we can't leave it there. So I had the Yin soldiers find a secluded mountain valley and bury it according to human customs. For some r...
