Although the little apprentice sister is weak, she can fight

Chapter 188 Unwilling

She had just woken up when the sudden muffled sound outside the door caught her off guard and startled her.

This sound...came from the stairs.

Boom…Boom!

The sound was dull, and it sounded like someone was jumping up the stairs one level at a time. Faintly, you could hear the happy laughter of children.

child?

She didn't think the boy who came with the woman had the energy to jump down the stairs in the middle of the night.

Shen Qiao got out of bed and walked to the door to listen.

The rhythmic "dong dong" sound was getting closer, but soon it became distant.

Went to the third floor?

Her mind gradually began to come back to her senses.

I heard the waiter talking to the woman before, and it seemed that he had a son with him. Did the boy also encounter an accident on the day of the incident?

The jumping sounds on the roof continued, and Shen Qiao heard that the sound seemed to have stopped... in the next room opposite.

If I remember correctly, that room seemed to be occupied by a brother and sister.

"whee……"

After a very loud stomping sound, Shen Qiao clearly heard a burst of laughter.

But this laughter didn't come from upstairs, but...

In her ear.

"Big sis... do you want to play with us too?"

"Yuan Yuan!"

Shen Qiao was awakened again, and cold sweat broke out as he looked at the ceiling above his head.

"Little Immortal? Are you awake?"

Zhang Wan's voice was filled with worry. She held Shen Qiao's hand and comforted him, "Don't worry. The Immortal Master said that you've overdrawn your energy, so it's normal for your soul skills to be temporarily out of control. You'll be fine once you wake up."

Soul magic out of control...

Shen Qiao frowned and tried to see the surrounding environment clearly, but as soon as his vision focused, he felt a stinging pain in his eyes.

She had to temporarily close her eyes and cover them with one hand, using the warmth of her palm to soothe the stinging sensation, her voice hoarse.

"How long have I slept?"

After asking this, she immediately opened her eyes and asked again, "That voice just now sounded like the woman from before?"

Hearing that she hadn't slept enough, Zhang Wan soothed her gently, "You've only rested for two hours, and it's already the evening hour. The two people across the street seem to have a fever. The younger brother has a fever, and the girl is anxious. She just went downstairs to ask the store for medicine."

Shen Qiao unconsciously recalled the boy's appearance. He was pale and skinny. Despite his young age, he lacked the vitality that his peers should have.

Thinking that he had already met her, Shen Qiao sat up again, feeling uneasy, and said, "I'll go take a look..."

"Don't be anxious." Zhang Wan quickly pushed her back.

"The Immortal Master has already gone. He told me to watch you rest well before we talk. You will have the opportunity to take action later."

"Shopkeeper! Shopkeeper!"

The woman hurried downstairs and went straight to the first floor and knocked on the door of the inner room.

"I'm coming…"

A hoarse and chaotic voice came from inside the door, as if a man in his seventies or eighties had phlegm stuck in his throat.

But the shop owner was clearly a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties...

Of course, this little doubt was quickly overshadowed by anxiety. The woman held onto the door and said, "My brother has a high fever and is burning all over. I'd like to ask if you have any emergency medicine in your store?"

"Yes, yes, yes... Just wait... I'll find it for you..."

The sound was obviously getting more and more wrong, but the woman didn't care about anything else. She breathed a sigh of relief when she heard there was medicine, took a step back and waited for the shop owner to open the door.

pat...

When she lifted her foot, she felt something sticky on the sole, as if she had stepped into a puddle.

Water? How could there be water in this room?

Before the woman could figure out the reason, the door in front of her was pulled open from the inside. "Come, come, come... I'll give you the medicine..."

The woman subconsciously raised her head to look, but this glance almost scared her to death.

In the light of the oil lamp in her hand, she met a pair of dull eyes. The head was tilted ninety degrees toward the crack of the door, and in the bloody hand was holding a bag of medicine that had long been soaked in blood.

"Take it..."

Seeing that she didn't answer, the shopkeeper was about to open the door completely, but a strange wind blew from somewhere and slammed the door shut.

"We have medicine here, we don't need yours."

Hearing the cold and clear voice coming from behind her, the woman finally struggled out of the strange fear and quickly took a few steps back.

"That's it..."

The shopkeeper inside the door muttered a few words to himself, and after a sound of dragging footsteps, the shopkeeper's voice was no longer heard from inside the door.

"No...no...my brother still has a fever, I have to get the medicine." The woman gritted her teeth and was about to knock on the door again, but she couldn't move her hand as soon as she raised it.

"If you want to leave here alive with your brother, go upstairs." Wang You reminded without any emotion.

"Do you think this is the only shop here?"

These highly suggestive words made the woman's pupils tremble. She turned around and looked at the man standing five or six meters behind her, and found that she didn't even know when he followed her down.

"Are you... a human... or a ghost?" she asked tremblingly.

"It's human for now."

The woman was very frightened, but because of what Wang You had just reminded her, she didn't dare to stay any longer. She turned around and ran upstairs in a hurry.

Wang You didn't rush to follow. He glanced at the blood that was slowly receding from the crack in the door. Then he looked up and saw that the door had opened a finger-wide gap at some point. A pair of eyes, which were looking outside because of broken necks, were staring at him without blinking.

"Really... don't want it anymore?"

Wang You: “…Yeah.”

"Oh..." The waiter who pretended to be dead was about to close the door again in disappointment.

"Not reconciled?"

These words made the hand closing the door pause, and then a low roar came from inside the door, "Not... enough..."

Wang You listened to the resentful voice, retracted his gaze and turned around, "Whatever you want."

"But, don't mess with people you shouldn't mess with."

The waiter remained silent, and finally slowly closed the door again.

“Yuan…Yuan?”

When the woman returned to the house, she saw that the child who was originally dying had now sat up in bed. When she came back, the child was rubbing his eyes with his hands.

"Sister...where have you been?"

The woman hurried into the house, pulled the child over and tested the temperature.

The fever has subsided...

She breathed a sigh of relief, "You scared me to death..."

"Just now...the big brother I met before came here." The boy said as he raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead like a little adult.

"He came to see me, and after he left I felt better."

The woman was comforted by this little gesture and couldn't help but touch the boy's head, but at the same time she was still scared.

This store is so weird, and the two people I met before...

She had finally managed to escape from that devilish place with her brother, and there couldn't be any more mistakes.

Thinking of this, she made a decision. She held the boy's shoulders seriously and whispered, "We are not staying here tonight. Let's go now."
