Chapter 160

Wu Xian looked at the door frame, speechless.

They didn't even have a door, so how were they supposed to guard against ghosts and demons?

But all eight of them became vigilant.

It was the second watch.

It was time for ghosts and demons to appear!

*Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap... *

From outside the pitch-black door, dense footsteps came.

Everyone was alert, and suddenly they saw a white hedgehog the size of a wild dog running over.

The white hedgehog had fruits and insects stuck to its quills, a luggage cloth bag, and half a person covered in blood.

It looked like this hedgehog was trying to run away.

And the half-person on its body was its reserve food for running away.

"Handsome, handsome, something big is going to happen... come out quickly!"

The hedgehog ran up close, turned into a human form, wiped the sweat from its forehead, and looked into the mourning hall anxiously on tiptoe.

She was none other than Bai Xiaolan, whom Wu Xian had met in the clothing store tomb earlier.

Wu Xian was slightly startled to see Bai Xiaolan, and when Bai Xiaolan saw Wu Xian's face, she immediately looked infatuated; after having Hedgehog Fire, Wu Xian's attractiveness to female hedgehogs became even greater than before.

Bai Xiaolan shook her head, shaking off her shyness: "Handsome, come out quickly, I have something important to tell you alone."

Wu Xian was very interested in the important thing she mentioned.

But in this environment.

How could he dare to go out?

So he put his arm around Hu Yunkuan's shoulder.

"Whatever it is, just say it here; they are all my close friends and family, and I can share everything with them."

Bai Xiaolan raised her head and glared fiercely at Liang Fang, Du E, and even He Dama.

In her eyes, these female humans were all competitors fighting with her for a high-quality male hedgehog.

Wu Xian was stunned.

Wei Dian immediately drove the three girls away: "You go wait in the corner first."

After the women walked away, Bai Xiaolan finally spoke.

"Why are you still staying in the Liu Mansion?"

"Don't you want your lives!"

"The Liu family's Great Grandmother is about to turn into a dragon!"

"That Great Grandmother is usually very smart and is my idol, but she is too stupid when facing her own children and grandchildren; she doesn't know what kind of thing Young Master Liu is at all. He won't sit idly by and watch her turn into a dragon; something big is going to happen in the Liu Mansion."

"How dare we small monsters get involved in such things; let's run away and save our lives."

Wu Xian's mouth twitched.

This little monster was quite simple; her perception of danger was very sensitive, and once she smelled the scent of death, she would run away; she even looked a bit cute between her brows.

If her hobby wasn't eating people, Wu Xian would really like to raise such a hedgehog.

Wei Dian captured the keyword, grabbed the corner of his mouth with his hand, suppressed his smile, and asked: "What do you mean by turning into a dragon?"

Bai Xiaolan turned her head and didn't answer.

These humans were not qualified to communicate with her; even if she could take them to escape, their status was only that of accompanying livestock.

Wu Xian asked again for Wei Dian, and only then did Bai Xiaolan speak.

"Snakes grow into pythons, pythons grow into dragons."

"The Liu family's Great Grandmother has reached the age and is about to achieve the right result; she is about to hold a dragon-transformation ceremony. This should have been a big event for the Liu Mansion, but for some reason, the Great Grandmother has had no movement recently."

Guan Daorong looked back; of course there was no movement, she was lying in the coffin now.

"What is the dragon-transformation ceremony?"

It was already a taboo for Bai Xiaolan to come to find Wu Xian, so she wasn't afraid to reveal more information now.

"There are countless dragon species; what kind of dragon one can eventually turn into is related to one's usual practice, and secondly, related to the environment during the dragon transformation; in fire, one turns into a flame dragon, in water, a water dragon, in the underworld, a ghost dragon..."

Hearing Bai Xiaolan's words.

Wu Xian finally understood Liu Baoyu's intention in the banquet hall tomb.

That gathering of evil spirits that trampled human nature underfoot was Liu Baoyu's dragon-transformation ceremony, and he also changed into a creepy evil dragon that stirred up a bloody storm because of that ceremony.

"We small monsters shouldn't get involved in the dragon-transformation ceremony; if we bring any negative impact to the Great Grandmother, the Great Grandmother won't let us go."

Wu Xian was silent for a while.

He moved to one side, letting Bai Xiaolan see the scene inside the mourning hall clearly.

"That is the Liu family's Great Grandmother in the coffin; you have already been involved in the dragon-transformation ceremony..."

Bai Xiaolan immediately let out a scream.

"Oh my, why didn't you say so earlier? You've really killed this hedgehog!"

Her body turned into a large hedgehog again, carrying the fruits and half a corpse; she could no longer care about flirting with the handsome guy, turned around, and disappeared into the darkness.

Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is the instinct of this kind of small monster.

This instinct is greater than everything, even the instinct to reproduce.

"So that's how it is..."

Wu Xian looked back at the coffin and had a completely different feeling.

Being fancied by the hedgehog Bai Xiaolan was an unexpected joy; even if the information she provided couldn't be fully trusted, it could be used as a reference; with this information, many things could be understood.

The Great Grandmother's birthday banquet he had been hearing about should have really existed; that was the dragon-transformation ceremony the Liu family's Great Grandmother had prepared for herself.

It was just that she fell into a coma for some special reason, which caused her dragon-transformation ceremony to change from a birthday banquet to a funeral...

This might be Liu Baoyu's goal.

He might not be able to kill the Great Grandmother who was about to turn into a dragon, so he wanted to use a special dragon-transformation ceremony to make the Liu family's Great Grandmother turn directly into a dead dragon!

*Tap, tap... *

Not long after Bai Xiaolan left, footsteps sounded again.

Wu Xian frowned and stared into the darkness.

Could it be that other hedgehog female caregivers were coming to see him? Did he really have such great charm?

The footsteps this time were much duller than before; they didn't sound like they were made by a hedgehog, but more like a person's footsteps.

After that person appeared within the range of the mourning hall's light.

Everyone's expression suddenly changed.

This person who walked out of the darkness was none other than Driver Lao Zhao.

He had already died when he got off the car for the first time; the later Lao Zhao was all impersonated by malevolent entities wearing his skin, but even the fake Lao Zhao had already been killed by the combined efforts of Wu Xian, Du E, Guan Daorong, and Hu Yunkuan.

Wu Xian was still wearing a set of black scale skin!

"Which Lao Zhao are you? Lao Zhao from Fengxian Travel Agency, or..."

Hu Yunkuan tried to find out the origin of this Lao Zhao.

But he had no reaction to Hu Yunkuan's words, just walked straight toward the coffin; facing the obstruction of the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and the Zhangba Snake Spear, he showed no fear at all.

Wu Xian immediately realized.

The purpose of this suddenly appearing Lao Zhao was the incense burning in front of the coffin!

No matter what relationship this Lao Zhao had with the previous two Lao Zhaos, everything would be fine if he was killed; before Wu Xian could act, Guan Daorong suddenly rushed out and stabbed Lao Zhao through the chest with his snake spear.

After piercing through him, Guan Daorong immediately showed a refreshed expression on his face.

He hadn't killed anything for a long time; although this long weapon was a bit useless, it could be used to kill malevolent entities, so it was considered useful.

The evil spirit of the snake spear had strong lethality against malevolent objects, and piercing directly through the chest was enough to kill ordinary malevolent entities.

But after Lao Zhao was pierced through the chest, there was no pain or howling.

He just tilted his head and stared straight at Guan Daorong, as if he didn't understand why he did this.

*Swoosh! *

His two eyes suddenly turned completely white!

At the same time, only white was left in Guan Daorong's eyes; he couldn't hold the snake spear, and he lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

Lao Zhao's body also disappeared without a trace along with Guan Daorong's fall...
