"You..." Mrs. Shen was so angry that her hands were shaking. She suddenly stood up and rushed towards me, as if she was going to fight me. I was prepared to fight back, not afraid of a woman-to-woman fight, but I was afraid of the Yang couple coming to help. I would be at a disadvantage facing three opponents, and I didn't have that ability.
But before she could reach me, Little Ink suddenly pointed behind Mrs. Shen and exclaimed in surprise, "Mommy, look, the beautiful lady in the painting behind Grandma is moving. She's floating towards Grandma as if she wants to hug her. Grandma, your living room is really fun. You can even raise beautiful ladies in the paintings. Can you teach Little Ink how to do that in the future?"
Little Ink originally thought that I had seen through his little thoughts and was very uneasy about wiping my tears. This meeting made me and Mrs. Shen confront each other with swords drawn, and I stood up nervously. I didn't expect him to actually say this. My first reaction was that Little Ink was afraid that I couldn't beat Mrs. Shen and deliberately scared Mrs. Shen to give me a chance to escape.
Mrs. Shen originally thought so too, but being naturally suspicious, she immediately stopped and turned around to look at the lady painting from some unknown era behind her. At this sight, Do not was tense. At that moment, Mrs. Shen was so scared that the lady in the painting was gone. Everything else, the flowers, grass, mountains, rivers, and rocks were all there, but the lady was missing. Just a moment ago, Mrs. Shen had deliberately taken me around this lady painting. The lady looked a bit like a woman from the Tang Dynasty, plump and chubby. I had a deep impression of her, so there definitely was a lady on the painting before. How could she disappear in the blink of an eye? As for the conversation with Little Ink, I quickly searched around. I thought that if Little Ink could see it, I should be able to see it too.
But what I didn't expect was that as a psychic, I actually didn't see it. This is quite strange. Could it be that the student surpasses the master, and the new generation replaces the old? Little Ink was born with abilities that surpass mine, so I was very surprised as I looked at Little Ink and asked quietly, "Is the figure in the painting a demon or a ghost? Why can't Mommy see it?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, Mommy. Let's get out of here quickly. It's too dangerous here," Little Ink said, pulling me towards the door and not explaining much to me. Mrs. Shen was already terrified, and when she saw Little Ink pulling me to run, she was even more frightened. She followed us, shouting for help as she ran, with the food I had sprayed on her face still there.
A gust of foul wind blew past, and just as we were running out, but at the very end, the Yang couple suddenly screamed and collapsed to the ground like dried corpses, instantly lifeless. And the previously invisible lady suddenly appeared, her face blushing as if she were alive, with a look of enjoyment on her face.
Mrs. Shen turned back and, seeing this scene, ran even faster, catching up to me in an instant. She reached out and pulled me back, pushing me away. I was unprepared for Mrs. Shen's sudden bad mood and was pushed over, but I quickly reacted and still had Little Ink in my hand. I couldn't let Little Ink fall into the hands of that vampire-like lady with me. Thinking of this, I immediately pushed Little Ink back with all my strength and shouted, "Little Ink, run! If Mommy is not here, take good care of Grandma for Mommy."
"Mommy, Do not, I want to be with you." I didn't expect Little Ink to completely ignore me. When he was about to fall into lady's arms, he immediately ran back to me. However, it seemed like something was blocking him, preventing him from coming closer. The distance between us grew, and seeing this, my tense heart instantly relaxed. Little Ink was safe.
At that moment, I fell into lady's soft embrace, and the tension made my body stiffen. Unexpectedly, lady smiled gently at me and said, "What a beautiful little sister. Sister is full today, so why don't you stay and be sister's midnight snack? As for your little son, he's too small, not even enough to get stuck in my teeth. Sister is not interested in him, so Do not. Come, sister will give you the honor of enjoying the natural scenery before being eaten by sister. Let me tell you, this is the nature that has not been polluted."
As soon as lady finished speaking, I felt myself being enveloped by something, everything went dark, and I could only hear Little Ink calling out "Mommy" anxiously in the distance, but I couldn't see him. Panicking, I was about to use blood sacrifice to summon the blood sea, ready to risk half of my life. However, as soon as I had this thought, everything brightened up, and I found myself entering the world within the painting.
lady took me directly into the landscape within the painting. Indeed, the scenery here was pristine, untouched by any pollution, with the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers. However, this was not the time to appreciate such nonsense scenery. I once again entertained the thought of summoning the blood sea, but this thought was once again dispelled when lady suddenly turned back and smiled at me, causing me to faint.
Why, it's certainly not because of her beauty, but this lady has actually turned into a Male ghost, and it's someone I know, my long-lost oldest cousin. Looking at the lady who now has the appearance of my oldest cousin, I didn't let my guard down, but rather asked in a suspicious tone, "Are you a man or a woman? What do you want by taking on this appearance?"
I deliberately pretended not to recognize oldest cousin and didn't address this person as "big brother," just to see what they would say next.
"Yuan Yuan, I am your oldest cousin, don't you recognize me?" The lady who had transformed into the appearance of oldest cousin across from me asked eagerly. Seeing the earnest and sincere look of oldest cousin, it seemed as if it really was my oldest cousin, and I began to waver internally. However, I still wasn't sure and planned to continue probing. Because oldest cousin didn't have such profound Gui Li, how could he enter a painting out of thin air and even engage in the activity of sucking blood? This was not a good sign. If oldest cousin had truly become ruthless and unkind, even if he really was oldest cousin, he wouldn't spare me. Moreover, my blood was a great tonic for the ghost beings, so I couldn't take it lightly. Even if it meant sacrificing half of my life, I could still escape.
"Yuan Yuan, have you forgotten? You saved my ghost life. If it weren't for you, oldest cousin would have long been scattered." oldest cousin persisted in earnestly speaking to me.
"Oh, so it's oldest cousin. But oldest cousin, you shouldn't have such powerful Gui Li. Is it because oldest cousin started sucking blood?" I couldn't avoid pretending not to know this time. This might really be oldest cousin, so I fortunately spoke frankly and directly asked, waiting to see how he would respond.
"As for Gui Li, it was lent to me by a powerful being from the ghost realm, and the blood-sucking was just to scare off that tigress. You know, oldest cousin, I'm just a good ghost! I never do anything that harms the natural order, even if the person is unforgivably wicked. That's for the underworld to handle, not me." oldest cousin said with a silly smile.
"The powerful figure in the underworld, can you tell me who it is? As for the blood-sucking incident you mentioned, I will understand its authenticity after I go out." I asked with hesitation, neither hot nor cold.
"Well, I don't know either. He came with a mask and didn't say who he was. He just told me to wait here early and said that I would know who needs to be saved when the time comes. I've been waiting for many days and haven't seen anyone I need to save until I saw you. Finally, I knew that the powerful figure I was supposed to save should be you. Otherwise, if I had saved my life, how could I ignore you being bullied?" oldest cousin thought for a moment and replied earnestly.
I looked at oldest cousin with a sincere expression, and I was about 80% convinced, so I asked again, " oldest cousin, I'll believe you for now. By the way, did the strong one say anything about what you should do after saving me? Is he going to make you trap me and wait for his arrival?"
"No, that's not it. He wants me to take the person I saved to a ancient tomb on the main peak of this mountain," oldest cousin replied after careful consideration.
"An ancient tomb, what kind of ancient tomb? Have you been inside, oldest cousin?" I dared to search around and sure enough, on the highest peak in front, I saw a cemetery, all in the style of ancient tombs. Just then, a gust of mountain wind blew, giving me goosebumps all over.
"I haven't been inside, but it's not that I don't want to go in, it's that I can't. There's a barrier outside," oldest cousin said impatiently. But then he said to me, "Yuan Yuan, it's okay if you don't want to go in. We can just pretend that you're not the person I saved. I was just trying to scare Mrs. Shen. Now that I've scared Mrs. Shen, she probably won't bother you and your son anymore. Little Ink probably misses you, crying outside. Let's just leave first."
I didn't expect oldest cousin to say that. At that moment, I was completely sure that it was really my oldest cousin. Otherwise, he would have tried to persuade me to enter the ancient tomb. So I felt a little embarrassed and said, " oldest cousin, I'm really sorry. Just now, I even suspected that you were fake!"
"It's okay, Yuan Yuan. What you did was right. Alright, don't keep Little Ink waiting. I'll take you back now. If you need anything, just call my name. I can help, and I will do my best." After saying that, I felt a sudden distortion of time and space, and my body was back in the real world.
Just as I entered the real world, I saw Little Ink kicking and biting at that lady painting. I quickly grabbed Little Ink and said, "Stop, Little Ink, don't damage the painting. It's valuable, and we can't afford to pay for it if it's damaged." While saying this, I secretly signaled to Little Ink.
Little Ink is a clever child and immediately understood what I meant. He quickly withdrew his hand and whispered in my ear, "Mommy, did you meet an acquaintance again, or rather, a familiar ghost? Otherwise, how could you come out unscathed?"
"You little rascal, you're so clever. Yes, Mommy saw your step-uncle inside, he's the one who saved Mommy. Oh, and by the way, have The Yang couple woken up?" Suddenly, I remembered oldest cousin saying he doesn't drink blood, and it was just to scare Mrs. Shen. I asked this not because I didn't believe oldest cousin, but because I wanted to take advantage of the fact that this wicked couple was unconscious and give them a few more hits to let off some steam.
"Mommy, you've also figured it out. Those two corpses are fake. I didn't realize it until Mommy did. They've probably woken up a long time ago and might have already fled from Shen's Residence. Little Ink thinks they probably won't dare to enter Shen's Residence again in their lifetime." Little Ink said with a smile, hugging my neck gently.
"Ah, I see. Well, forget it then. Oh, by the way, Little Ink, it seems like we've fallen into someone else's trap!" Suddenly, I remembered the grave that oldest cousin mentioned, and a chill ran through me, a sense of unease creeping from my feet to my head.
