Chapter 134 Red Eyes
Chapter 134 Red Eyes
It was the old man Shu who disappeared without a trace that Shu Wanwan had been thinking about and looking for all the time!
"Grandpa Shu!" Shu Wanwan shouted excitedly.
Old Man Shu looked at her with a kind smile in his eyes. He said, "Wanwan, you finally found this place. Wanwan, come home with me."
Old Man Shu's words were warm and slow. Shu Wanwan had tears in the corners of her eyes. She seldom cried, but how could she hold back at this moment?
"Grandpa, what is going on?" Shu Wanwan held Old Man Shu's hand, her voice choked with sobs.
Old Man Shu looked at Shu Wanwan with a pair of lifeless eyes, and told her in a slow and steady voice that the runes on the bell were an ancient formation related to the Li Kingdom and a curse from a ghost book. Only by finding the correct solution could the curse be broken and all those affected be saved.
After that, Old Man Shu handed Shu Wanwan a tattered book that contained the solution to the formation. Shu Wanwan took the book and felt that it was light and weightless.
"Wanwan, come home with me and I will take you to find the secret of the talisman." Old Man Shu's voice echoed in the air, still so warm and kind.
Shu Wanwan held the ancient book tightly, her heart filled with a strange feeling.
"Go home? Where is our home?" Shu Wanwan murmured with her head down. A feeling of palpitations emerged in her heart. She suddenly remembered the mountains of corpses and seas of blood in her eldest brother's mind.
Shu Wanwan's eyes turned red again, and her expression was no longer as gentle as when she first met Old Man Shu.
Then Shu Wanwan slowly raised her head, and a bright smile appeared on her face again.
"Grandpa, where are we going?" Shu Wanwan's voice was calm, and no emotion could be heard.
"Just follow me." As he said that, Old Man Shu turned around and took Shu Wanwan and Yi Siyang to walk on the bright road in the darkness.
Yi Siyang followed Shu Wanwan with a frown on his face. He reached out and pulled the corner of Shu Wanwan's coat. Shu Wanwan was still wearing the skirt she wore to the film and television festival today. The tailoring of the skirt was not complicated to begin with, and now she wore a leather jacket on the outside. The feeling was completely different from today's on the podium. She was both cool and beautiful, with a unique style.
Shu Wanwan felt someone pulling her coat. Without saying a word, she supported Yi Siyang's hand and pulled it off the coat. She turned around, gave Yi Yang a look, and turned her head away again.
Yi Siyang looked at Shu Wanwan's back, and he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. He always felt that things were not that simple, but he didn't know how to tell her.
The three of them walked in silence, not speaking a word along the way. After walking for an unknown amount of time, they arrived in front of an ancient castle.
The castle looks a bit eerie, and there is a mysterious atmosphere around it.
Shu Wanwan was not unfamiliar with this ancient castle. This was Chen Yuan’s castle villa.
Old Man Shu pushed open the door and waited for them to come in. Shu Wanwan strode in, and Yi Siyang frowned even more tightly.
Yi Siyang hesitated for a moment, but still followed in.
After several twists and turns, they arrived at the study. When the secret door opened, a secret room appeared in front of Shu Wanwan.
This time no one went into the secret room, even Old Man Shu stood outside the secret door.
Yi Siyang looked inside. The room was dimly lit, and the walls were covered with strange portraits. Shu Wanwan's expression remained unchanged, but she clutched the ancient book in her hand even tighter.
"This is the key to breaking the curse." Old Man Shu said calmly.
"Is this our home?" Shu Wanwan did not respond, but asked a question she had wanted to ask since she saw the castle villa.
"Yeah." Old Man Shu just hummed and didn't say much.
Shu Wanwan's eyes were already red. She took a deep breath and put the ancient book in her hand into her backpack. Then she put her hand down, and an exquisitely crafted peach wood sword appeared in her hand.
"Show yourself." Shu Wanwan's tone was cold, no longer that gentle voice.
"Hahahaha, I'm really sorry for the hasty preparation." A familiar and extremely eerie voice rang in my ears.
The somewhat hunched old man in front of him suddenly transformed into a man in a black robe.
After the man appeared, the entire secret room was suddenly filled with a strong black and purple mist.
Shu Wanwan held a peach wood sword and looked at him vigilantly.
"Little girl, how are you?" the man said sarcastically.
"Who are you? Why are you pretending to be my grandfather?" Shu Wanwan shouted angrily.
"Who am I? You will know soon...hahaha..." The man let out a shrill laugh, then raised his hand and waved it, and several black lights rushed towards Shu Wanwan.
Shu Wanwan dodged sideways and stabbed at the man with the peach wood sword.
However, the man easily avoided her attack and cast a strange spell, trapping Shu Wanwan in mid-air.
Shu Wanwan threw out a yellow talisman, and suddenly the sky was filled with lightning and thunder. Shu Wanwan took this opportunity, muttered something, and cast a binding spell.
"Draw the thunder into the sword, and kill the evil spirits with the sword." Shu Wanwan's voice was not loud, but it was shocking. She held the hilt of the sword with both hands. It was originally just an ordinary peach wood sword, but it really drew the thunder from the sky. A flash of lightning flashed across, and the sword body flashed as if it was electrified.
Shu Wanwan didn't hesitate either. She waved her hand and a bolt of lightning pierced the black-robed man's heart.
Shu Wanwan rarely uses fatal moves. She doesn't want to kill anyone. Everything in the world has a reason to live. But this person is extremely hateful. She transformed herself into the most important person to her and played tricks on her.
Even though Shu Wanwan saw through it at first sight, she softened her heart a little because the other party turned into the appearance of Old Man Shu. She missed Old Man Shu so much that she would be relieved to see him even if it was fake. However, this man in black robe made up an illusory home to deceive her. No one knew what the word "home" meant to Shu Wanwan. A feeling of anger still burned in Shu Wanwan's heart like fire.
One sword, one sword.
Along with Shu Wanwan's sword, lightning and thunder flashed.
However, the man dodged it easily. He sneered, "With your little ability, you still want to fight me?" After that, he waved his hands again, and more black light surged towards Shu Wanwan like a tide.
At this time, Yi Siyang stepped forward and stood in front of Shu Wanwan.
"Shu Wanwan, calm down and concentrate, otherwise you will be possessed by the devil."
While fighting, Yi Siyang shouted at Shu Wanwan.
He used all his strength and engaged in a fierce fight with the man in black robe.
But the black-robed man's strength was obviously far superior to theirs, and Yi Siyang gradually fell into a disadvantage.
Shu Wanwan's eyes turned red, this time not because of sadness, but because of anger. Yi Siyang's words were like a basin of cold water that extinguished the flames.
Shu Wanwan shook her head. What happened to her?
