Chapter 275 Destruction
On the chair where Xu Youyou had sat before in the tall building, now sat a woman wrapped in black veil.
The woman kept muttering to herself, and the people around her kept their distance from her, as if they were afraid of being contaminated.
The Gu siblings were standing in the corner. Gu Yuji was looking into the house with a telescope. From his perspective, he could see that the entire courtyard was now filled with gray smoke and there was no movement at all.
"Will she die?" Gu Xueying suddenly asked.
"Don't worry, she will die without a trace of bones left." Gu Yuji said sinisterly.
Gu Xueying forced a smile. She really hated Xu Youyou, but she couldn't be happy after hearing this. She even couldn't help thinking in her heart, Lu Jingyao liked Xu Youyou so much, would he be sad if he knew this?
But this thought only lasted for a moment. Gu Xueying understood better than anyone that her life would only be better if Xu Youyou died.
Deep down, she also hoped that Xu Youyou would die.
The woman in the center of the crowd had a smile on her lips beneath her black veil, and she felt that everything was under her control.
But suddenly, she seemed to feel some inexplicable power, her forehead tensed in an instant, the sound of her chanting became faster and faster, and she even picked up a small knife beside her and wiped a handful of blood from her palm.
Gu Yuji, who was originally smiling, couldn't help but frown at the situation. "Such a situation? Can Xu Youyou break it?"
At this moment, Xu Youyou was in the yard, and it felt like there were two villains fighting in her mind. One arrogant villain urged her to act quickly, while the other, with a weak breath, kept shouting, "Don't be impulsive."
Xu Youyou, who has always been calm and rational, acted as if she didn't hear the weak voice. She raised the dagger in her hand and gradually brought it closer to her neck.
[Ding! The host is in a state of trance. Please regain your sanity as soon as possible and complete the task of picking up the leak as soon as possible!]
The mechanical sound of the system rang in Xu Youyou's ears countless times, and a look of struggle gradually appeared on Xu Youyou's face.
"Ding Ding Ding!"
The cell phone that fell to the ground suddenly rang.
After a while, Xu Youyou suddenly woke up, gasping for breath.
"What's wrong with me?"
She was in the gray fog. She lowered her head and saw the dagger in her hand, which was shining with a cold and eerie light. She was so scared that she let go of her hand. The dagger fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
The cell phone continued to ring persistently. Xu Youyou squatted down, picked up the phone, and looked at the caller displayed on it.
"Qing girl, you... do you know that I'm in danger?" Xu Youyou asked.
The voice of the girl on the other end of the phone was still as ethereal as if she were singing: "Sister Youyou, I didn't know you were in danger. I just thought I should call you, but I don't know what to say to you when the call is connected."
Xu Youyou felt a lump in her throat, and she felt that finding Qing Yatou was the most important task she had ever completed. Even if Qing Yatou had not become a million-dollar up-host like she is now, Xu Youyou would be willing to support her for the rest of her life.
"Sister Youyou, goodbye." Qing Yatou was about to hang up the phone.
Xu Youyou quickly said, "Thank you.
Qing Yatou said, "Sister Youyou, I did what I should do."
After the call ended, Xu Youyou solemnly said to the system, "You saved me again."
The system still had an extremely steady mechanical voice: [Host, only by living can you see a wider landscape. Please live long and healthily.]
Xu Youyou's heart softened.
【Host, pick up that dagger.】
Xu Youyou was stunned when she heard this. It was after she held this dagger that she fell into an abnormal state.
After hesitating for a moment, she took out a handkerchief and wrapped the dagger. Her expression was full of alertness, waiting to throw the dagger away immediately if she noticed something was wrong.
But she didn't fall into that strange state again
The system suddenly spoke, explaining: [Host, you will not be trapped by the same trap twice.]
Xu Youyou immediately understood that this same trick had worked on her once and she had developed antibodies, so she was not afraid now.
Now that she had come out of that trance, she could finally see clearly what the golden pointer in front of her was pointing to.
The golden pointer still fell in the original place. Xu Youyou initially thought it was pointing to the dagger, but now she realized that it was pointing to a wooden box under the dagger.
She walked forward and opened the box. The first thing she saw was a shiny black round sphere that seemed only the size of an adult's fist.
She took out something from the box through the handkerchief. It felt very heavy, but as soon as she saw what it was, she wanted to throw it away on the spot.
It was a head, a round head, and it looked like a child, with eyes slightly closed and a very peaceful expression.
But this strange thing gave Xu Youyou the illusion that it would open its eyes at any time.
She recalled the cries of the children she had heard before, and her heart tightened. "Is this the head that was taken from a child?"
【no. 】
After getting the system's answer, Xu Youyou did not relax and still felt extremely uncomfortable.
[Although this thing was not taken from a living person, it condenses the resentment of countless infants.]
Xu Youyou wanted to throw the thing away again, and was so anxious that she almost jumped up: "Am I going to leave with this thing?"
[Host, sometimes picking up a bargain isn't about gaining, but about destroying.]
When Xu Youyou heard this, she didn't even have time to think about it. She couldn't wait to pick up the dagger and stabbed it hard into the head.
Suddenly, she heard a sharp baby cry, the sound seemed to penetrate her eardrum.
"This sound is simply fatal!" Xu Youyou couldn't help but complain.
The system rarely responds: [It will definitely cost lives.]
On the rooftop across from the courtyard, the woman in black veil who was performing a ritual suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. "Impossible! How could such a flawless spell be broken?"
Seeing her like this, Gu Yuji ran over quickly and asked, "Queen of Heaven, Xu Youyou is not dead?"
The woman stared at him with eyes like sharp swords and said, "How did she manage to unravel the trap I painstakingly set in my dojo? Are you hiding something from me?"
Gu Yuji said: "Xu Youyou has nothing special except that she's a little lucky."
The woman in black veil glared at him fiercely and said, "Something's wrong! There must be something about her that we don't know about. No, since the magic has been destroyed by her, we can't let her stay there any longer..."
Before the woman in black veil could finish her words, her eyes suddenly widened and she fell to the ground without any warning.
