Quan Jue shook his head and sat down beside her.
“How did you know it was me?” Chi Jiao asked curiously.
“You always like to knock five times in a row, then pause before knocking again,” Quan Jue explained.
Chi Jiao was surprised.
She didn’t expect Quan Jue to remember such a small detail so clearly.
Her heart grew warm again.
“Brother Quan, after I find the Soul Stone, I can live like an ordinary person.” Chi Jiao had already thought about it. After she recovered the Soul Stone, she wouldn’t get involved with 117 anymore.
She just wanted to be an ordinary person and enjoy her time with Quan Jue, growing old with him.
Quan Jue nodded and pulled her into his arms. “I will support you.”
In fact, he would support whatever decision his beloved little girl made.
From the corner of her eye, Chi Jiao saw the exercise book on the table.
“Brother Quan, it’s okay if you didn’t come with me.” Chi Jiao immediately felt guilty.
Quan Jue was about to take the college entrance examination, but he still had to follow her to this place.
“I’d be worried if I let you come alone.” Quan Jue was glad that he had come with her.
This place was really backward. There was no reception on their cell phones.
He would have gone crazy if he couldn’t contact Jiaojiao for the next few days.
Chi Jiao planted a kiss on his chin. “Brother Quan, let’s go out tonight.”
Quan Jue thought that she was bored and nodded without hesitation.
*****
At 10:00 PM.
The village chief’s house was brightly lit.
There were probably dozens of strong men gathered in the large courtyard, including Ah Ping.
The village chief stood on the steps in front of the main house and looked at the dozens of people below, his gaze fixed on Ah Ping.
“Ah Ping, have you made arrangements with the people living at your house not to go out tonight?”
Ah Ping nodded vigorously. “Everything has been arranged.”
The village chief said, “Although that lady might have some connections with the Evil Deity, we can’t believe everything she says. We have to be careful, understand?”
“Yes!” Ah Ping answered loudly.
The village chief nodded in satisfaction and quickly scanned the others. “Every household has to send one person. Is everyone here?”
“Everyone is here!”
“Alright, since everyone is here, you guys can go and carry the things. We have to head up the mountain immediately if we want to reach the temple by midnight!” The village chief instructed.
“Got it!” The group said in unison, their faces brimming with joy.
A crow was perched on a cherry tree in the courtyard. It tilted its head as it watched the people below transport the items that were going to be used for tonight’s ritual for the Evil Deity.
Pigs, lambs, fruits, and vegetables were all necessary for the grand ceremony.
The crow perched on a branch to watch for a moment, before flying away.
It was extremely fast and soon arrived at a small forest outside the village.
When it landed, the black fog surrounding the crow flickered and it transformed into the figure of a little girl.
The little girl was wearing a red cotton jacket and black cotton pants. Her long black hair was scattered messily, covering most of her face. It was the little girl that Chi Jiao and the others had met when they first arrived at Feng Tong Village.
“Master, they’re already preparing for the ceremony,” the little girl said to the man standing under a large tree not far away..
