26. Narrow-sleeved Guanyin
Su Wu's heart almost jumped out of his throat when he suddenly saw a figure in the dark forest.
Especially the figure standing by the stream like a wooden log, which made him feel a little weird.
He made up his mind not to get close to the stream and moved his steps to retreat from this place.
But at this moment, the figure turned around.
Her face was like a big peach, with two red spots on her cheeks on her glowing white face.
Her big face made her neck look very thin.
Like the handle of a peach heart on a playing card.
She had no nose bridge or nose tip, only two dark nostrils facing Su Wu. Her small mouth was like a strawberry, squirming slightly, and making a light and thin voice: "Where are you going?
Take me with you, okay?"
Just listening to this voice, it would remind people of the most docile and well-behaved woman they have ever met.
The soft and warm breath wrapped around Su Wu's neck, like a girl's arms around him.
He looked down at his neck—two white, radiant arms had wrapped around his neck!
Ghost!
Su Wu's clothes were soaked with cold sweat!
He remembered the scene of Zhuo Jie's father being wrapped around his body by a pair of white arms, and immediately realized that he had encountered the same ghost as Zhuo Jie's father.
This ghost that was chasing him from behind had caught up with him when he was relaxed!
Realizing the danger, Su Wu subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away—
However, his turning action was like a frame-dropping picture, and he was unable to complete this action in three breaths.
More and more white and tender hands stretched out from his sleeves and lapels, hugging him from different directions, overlapping layer by layer!
"This ghost...can...slow...down...my-speed!"
"...and...thinking..."
Su Wu barely turned his eyes and saw that the ghost suddenly "flew" from the stream to the treetop in front.
It was like a kite that was released, light and weightless.
‘She’ was closer to Su Wu, and Su Wu saw two tight long sleeves on both sides of her thick emerald green robe.
The cuffs of the two narrow sleeves were tied with knots, fluttering in the wind - Gui’s arms did not seem to be inserted into the narrow sleeves.
This was the ‘narrow-sleeved Guanyin’ that Zhuo Jie’s father had mentioned!
At this time, the belly of ‘narrow-sleeved Guanyin’ was bulging as if a watermelon was stuffed in it.
“Has Zhuo Jie’s father been eaten by it?”
Staring at the belly of the narrow-sleeved Guanyin, Su Wu’s mind was turning.
I don’t know if it was because he was about to die or for other reasons, but at this time his mind returned to normal.
“Where are you going?”
“Can you take me with you?”
The soft voice floated out from the strawberry-like lips of the narrow-sleeved Guanyin again.
The few snow-white hands closest to Su Wu’s mouth opened their five fingers, pried his mouth open, and tried to tear it in all directions -
“Ahhhhh!”
The corners of Su Wu’s mouth were about to be torn!
A painful sound burst out from his throat!
His mouth was not really torn apart, but it was expanding under the tearing of those little hands, and it was about to accommodate a basketball!
The narrow-sleeved Guanyin flew down from the treetop, and her small head tried to get into Su Wu's basketball-sized mouth.
What kind of weird thing is this? !
Su Wu's eyes were about to burst, and when he saw the narrow-sleeved Guanyin's head about to get into his mouth, a few loud dog barks suddenly came from the shadowy forest around him!
"Woof woof woof!"
Dog?
He rolled his eyes, and saw a black and strong big dog like a calf rushing out of the forest diagonally opposite, rushing towards him!
When he got closer, Su Wu saw the colorful strips of cloth wrapped around the big dog's neck.
Under each strip of cloth, there were silver bells.
"Ding ding ding ding..."
The sound of the bells was scattered and rapid.
"Woof woof woof!"
The dog barked fiercely and loudly!
The black shadow suddenly pounced, leaving a trace of afterimage in Su Wu's vision!
The narrow-sleeved Guanyin, who had just been trying to get into Su Wu's mouth, suddenly screamed and was blown away by a gust of black wind.
Away from Su Wu!
Whoosh!
The dog stopped in front of Su Wu, and did not chase the narrow-sleeved Guanyin that was inexplicably blown away by the black wind, but circled around Su Wu.
It did not show any tendency to attack, and Su Wu breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still nervous when being stared at by such a big dog.
The black dog was closer to Su Wu, and Su Wu could already see its true appearance.
The big dog was covered with long hair, with a relatively short mouth, a square face, and a majestic look.
It was mostly iron-black long hair, but its four hooves were brown-yellow. This kind of hair color is commonly known as "iron wrapped in gold".
Just as Su Wu was secretly looking at this heroic big dog, a few whimpers suddenly came from the forest in the distance.
When the big dog heard the sound, its half-drooped ears stood up for a moment, and in front of Su Wu's eyes, it turned into a black wind and merged into the dim night in the forest.
Disappeared in an instant!
This dog is not an ordinary dog!
But if it were an ordinary dog, it would not scare away the narrow-sleeved Guanyin.
Is it also a kind of existence similar to a ghost?
Zhuo Jie's hometown is so mysterious. I just entered it for the first time, and I encountered two bizarre things in just one night.
Su Wu secretly felt lucky that he escaped and did not waste 500 yuan of jade.
But he immediately thought again-the big dog has left, will the narrow-sleeved Guanyin catch up again?
No, I have to leave quickly!
Go to the northwest to find the mage that Zhuojie's father mentioned!
Only there will you be truly safe!
Every failure makes you wiser.
This time, Su Wu had no intention of relaxing. After identifying the northwest direction, he ran away.
He did not maintain a constant speed like before, but sped up and slowed down.
Every time he slowed down because of excessive physical strength, he would speed up when his physical strength recovered a little!
He walked like this for a night and a day.
When the drinking water and food on his body were completely exhausted, Su Wu saw the temple that Zhuojie's father mentioned.
It was a small temple made up of several bungalows stacked together. Above the walls of each bungalow painted with red paint, there were black sutra curtains.
There were golden words twisted like earthworms on the sutra curtains, which looked quite mysterious under the reflection of the sunset in the sky.
Su Wu glanced at the half-open vermilion temple door, but did not see anyone waiting at the temple door.
He stopped at the foot of the hill where the temple was located, observed the surrounding environment, and then walked into the temple along the steps that stretched all the way from the temple gate to the foot of the hill.
The clouds in the distant sky were changing, and the clouds were rolling, reflecting the light and darkness of the snow-capped mountains on the horizon.
It took only a few dozen steps from the foot of the hill to the temple gate, and the sky became dark in the sudden change of clouds and wind.
Standing at the threshold of the small temple, Su Wu stretched his head and looked inside. He saw that under the dim sky, there were thick black felt cloths hanging in front of the doors of several houses.
The thick cloth blocked the cold wind from the outside and blocked the transmission of light.
Su Wu could not see the scene inside the house at all.
He hesitated for a moment, lifted the felt cloth in front of the door of the first house on the left and walked in.
