Chapter 205 Yin Yang Inn
Seeing my surprised look, Xia Xi smiled slightly and said, "Are you surprised?"
Although her appearance had changed, her voice had not.
"How is this going?"
Xu Tianxuan explained to me: "Xia Xi is a descendant of the Xia family of painted skin. She is born with the ability to become painted skin, but this ability was restricted by her grandfather and has never been revealed."
Seeing that I was still full of doubts, Xia Xi continued to explain: "The Xia family has experienced a huge change and branches have appeared."
"One group is mixed in modern society and engaged in the profession of embalmers, that is, people like my grandfather."
"The other branch is its own sect, mixing with Yin and Yang. The Painted Skin Ghost is the evil thing enshrined by that branch."
I was a little surprised, I didn't expect Xia Xi to have such a life experience.
"My grandpa told me this in my dream, and the other branch has gradually declined. In order to be stubborn, they targeted me, so I had to learn to paint skin. Fortunately, Master Tianxuan is here to help me, so I can change my face." Be like you."
Although Xia Xi gave me an explanation, new doubts came to my mind again.
I asked Xu Tianxuan, "Master, why did you let Xia Xi become like me?"
Xu Tianxuan pondered for a moment and replied: "There are people in the secret who are eyeing you. Once they find out that you have left Tianfu City, they will definitely flock to the underworld to cause trouble for you."
Someone in the dark?
Xu Tianxuan came to my side and said softly: "You have to know that your fate and luck are very tempting to those people. The reason why they didn't come to me is because they have a lot of scruples in the world of the world, but in this world It’s different in the underworld.”
I nodded. Since Xu Tianxuan has arranged it this way, she must have her reasons. All I have to do is follow it.
When night fell, Xia Xi stayed at Jiyuntang instead of me, while Xu Tianxuan and I headed to the barren mountains.
I don't know where the destination of this trip is, so I can only follow Xu Tianxuan.
The two of us were walking on a gloomy path. The dark night seemed like endless thick ink smeared heavily on the sky.
The night fog came in, and the midsummer night was a bit cool. Under the hazy moonlight, few stars could be seen.
There was a deserted area beside me, with lone trees and boulders, everything seemed so quiet.
I don’t know how long I walked, but my field of vision suddenly became wider.
I looked into the distance, and in the hazy night, the outline of a house caught my eye.
Xu Tianxuan quickened his pace and walked in. He saw that it was an antique inn.
The inn is very simple, giving people the impression that it comes from ancient times. There is a sign directly above the door with four ancient seal scripts written on it.
Yin Yang Inn.
Xu Tianxuan stretched out his hand and knocked lightly on the wooden door a few times. The dull knocking sound was very clear in the wilderness.
After a moment, there was a creak and the door of the inn opened.
An old and pale face suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, which shocked me.
The door was opened by an old lady.
The old lady's face was as pale as marble, and her old wrinkled face was full of pockmarks, not to mention how terrifying it was.
Xu Tianxuan saw the old lady and said slowly: "It's cold and the road is long. Can the store owner allow us to rest here?"
