277: Rumble

Rumble

Wu Genji stared at her healthy complexion and sighed happily before stretching her hand and picking the ring with snakes piled on top of one another and putting it on, once she put the ring on…green clouds of smoke surrounded her entirely. Wu Genji waited for the green smoke to vanish, the face of the snake woman was gone before she raised her hand and softly caressed the finger of her nephew before tutting, " Don't worry Haito, I will make sure that our family holds a funeral for you … I don't want your soul to roam around in the dark for no reason, don't worry, I will take care of everything."  1

She carefully placed the finger at the centre of the ring on her finger and watched it get swallowed up. 

After she was done, she looked at the mirror and smiled like a harmless little rabbit before skipping to her bed while humming. Clearly, she was in a very good mood.

At Qili village. 

Song Yan got up from the bed she was resting in, she has been waiting for the Yin energy to get denser around the village before going out and checking the tomb. Now that the temperature has dropped to another degree she was sure that it was time—— sliding off from the bed, she looked at Fu Yu Shen, he was still sitting in the corner of the room, with countless rosary beads tied around his wrists, neck and the idol that he was worshipping. 

If she wasn't wrong then he was going on and on with the praying ever since she booked a room in the small inn that was completely empty except for the few customers which included none other than the young masters and mistresses from the city. 

She stared at Fu Yu Shen and raised her head before kicking him on the back. " You do know that the Gods won't be protecting you? They don't care about an atheist, who suddenly starts praying out of nowhere and that too all for his benefit? They only listen to the ones who pray with consistency and know how to be grateful for even the smallest grace… these prayers won't even be accepted by the minor gods" with her hands in her pants pockets, she looked at the number of idols that he was praying to and huffed, " You are so selfish, Fu Yu Shen… instead of bothering the Gods, you might as well pray to me. At least if I am happy, I will bring you back out of that tomb alive." 

At her words, Fu Yu Shen opened his eyes and swirled around at once before he started chanting, " Oh my heaven-defying second sister in law, I pray that you and Chen Chen will always be safe and happy... I swear that I will pray consistently and even do good deeds from now on, so please just protect me in the tomb!" 

His prayers were so amusing that Song Yan rolled her eyes and kicked him on the shin. " You are still bribing huh? You really can't cheat your spots." 

Fu Yu Shen rolled on the floor after being kicked in the shin and immediately whined, " I have nothing else to offer, I am not someone who prays, it's something that Grandpa does, I am only used to bribing and handing things out, this is my first attempt at praying, so you shouldn't judge me so harshly." 

Song Yan snorted nonetheless she took out a blue crystal necklace from her pocket and threw it at Fu Yu Shen, who caught it in a jiffy as his life depended on it. Emotionlessly, Song Yan looked at Fu Yu Shen who was clutching the necklace and said,  " This is something that I refined before coming here, it is not as strong as to hold evil spirits back forever but its enough for one night, hold on to that tightly, if you lose it then you will have a hard time, I don't have another one. Got it?" 

" I will rather die than let the necklace be separated from my body," said Fu Yu Shen as he picked up the necklace and tied it around his neck. This was his lifeline …anyone who tried to take it away from him should be ready for a rumble!

Seeing his determined expression, Song Yan knew that her message was able to get through, she nodded before turning to look at Fang Yanli and asked, " Can you sense any spirits roaming around the village?" 

" No, I can't," Fang Yanli shook her head as she replied, it was really weird that a village with such a thick and dense Yin energy didn't have a single spirit. 

Song Yan pursed her lips as she nodded before looking out of the window, the village was darker than it was in the afternoon and was completely shrouded in a veil of darkness as if it has been cut off from the outer world.

  " Lets go," she turned to look at Fu Yu Shen. " We need to get out of the tomb before dawn breaks, I don't wish to see what will happen lest we are entangled in something and get locked inside of it." 

Fu Yu Shen looked alarmed at her words but Song Yan didn't give him the chance to say anything before she opened the door of their room and walked out into the corridor but just as she turned to a left, her brows creased because the corridor was packed!

These young kids!

Song Yan stood in one spot and Fu Yu Shen who saw this curiously peeked his head out of the room and when he saw that it was jammed packed by the young masters from the city, he too couldn't help but frown. It was one thing that he didn't want to go up the mountain but what exactly was going in the heads of these young masters, Don't tell him that they were planning to play excavators at such an hour? 

Ps: its start of the month send me some gifts please!!
