When the time reached seven o'clock, the island office immediately cut off all power supply on the island.

This is also a long-standing practice of the Bone Night Festival. During the Ghost Card Game, it will be played in the dark. And at this time, whoever is there must stay at home.

It's a game to be forced to participate in whether you want it or not. No one, no exceptions. And all the islanders on this island, without exception, are believers in Moon Shadow, so they will also resolutely enforce this.

A week before the arrival of the Night of the Bones, the statue of Moon Shadow will change. Originally, the statue only had a back, but gradually revealed part of the front side of the face, and then ...... Black tears will flow from the left eye!

What kind of god is Moon Shadow, and when did it begin...... No one was able to give an answer. But it seems to be as far away as the "death of the living".

And on the night after seven days, it is the Bone Night Festival, which is also an inevitable rule. Everyone must participate in this game, whether it is a dying old man or a baby waiting to be fed, they must participate in this game, and they must absolutely abide by the rules of the game. This is also the will of Moon Shadow. No believer can disobey him.

At this time, in Lingxi's home.

The lights in the house turned dark in an instant, which meant the beginning of the ghost card game of the Bone Night Festival.

"It's ...... started."

Lingxi's family sat around the table, and in front of the offering table in the room, there was a statue of Moon Shadow, and in front of it were three incense sticks that were still burning.

Lingxi turned his head from time to time, looked at the Moon Shadow Idol on the offering table, always with his back to everyone, and said, "Every year, when the Night of the Bones is celebrated...... I don't feel well all the time. ”

"Shhhhh This festival is the will of the Lunala, and we are to follow the rules of the game. The Moon Shadow God will protect us! What's more, Lingxi, you are a Qi Practitioner, shouldn't the Qi Practitioner respect the Moon Shadow God more? ”

"Of course I know that...... It's just ......" Speaking of this, Lingxi looked at the window that had closed the curtains, and muttered: "On the night of the Bone Night Festival, if you draw the big ghost card, you have to go out for an hour...... So that's to say. Is it dangerous to be outside at night at the Bone Night Festival? ”

"This ...... It should be ......" Lingxi's father thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be." It's been so many years, and there are always a few people who draw big ghost cards in the Bone Night Festival, right? Although people who draw big ghost cards generally don't say it, there are definitely people. As a result, no one said it was dangerous. ”

"Maybe you were in danger and didn't say it, right?"

"Anyway...... The probability of drawing a ghost card is still very low. ”

At this point, the room fell silent.

"And then there'...... Every time you come outside everyone's house, the person who gives a ghost card to draw is really played by someone from the island office? ”

"Most people think so...... But. It doesn't matter, does it......"

"Mommy, Mommy...... When you were young, there was already a Bone Night Festival? ”

"yes. Every year, the Night of the Bones. Every year, there will be that once. ”

When Lingxi heard these words, he immediately stopped thinking about it so much. This Bone Night Festival has lasted for so many years, and I haven't heard of anything happening, it seems. It's just a symbolic holiday.

Yes......

It's just a symbolic holiday......

"I'll go upstairs for a while. If...... When the 'person' who sent the card came, he called me. ”

Then, he went to the second floor alone and walked into the room. Because the room was dark, it was also very depressing. He lay down on his own bed.

"Why is there a power outage? If you can call, you can also talk to Xu Yun. Bone Night Festival...... It's a festival that I can't really like. ”

Right now. He straightened up suddenly, looking at the window, which had been closed by the curtains. Then, he walked up and opened the curtain through a small gap.

On the day of Bone Night, it's not just about staying at home. And the curtains have to be closed, and it is said that if you don't do this, you will see things that you shouldn't see.

But...... Lingxi still opened the curtains.

Outside...... It was pitch black. In the sky, not even a star can be seen. This was rare before, because Dead Water Island has always been able to see the thousands of stars in the sky clearly.

At this moment, the entire people of Dead Water Island are at home, waiting for the mysterious "person" to visit and bring them playing cards.

At this moment, his gaze suddenly moved to the west.

Over there...... He saw a swarthy mountain standing there. And there, there is still a faint light.

That mountain is the legendary forbidden mountain! And that light is naturally the watchtower of the Forbidden Mountain!

Forbidden Mountain ...... On a backwater island, a mountain that is completely forbidden to tread, and why is it forbidden? Again, it's the will of Moon Shadow. On Dead Water Island, the best of the Qi Practitioners can communicate with Moon Shadow in will. Once successfully communicated, Moon Shadow's will can be inherited. And not being able to step into the forbidden mountain is one of the most important. At the same time, it is necessary to carry out long-term and continuous monitoring of the forbidden mountain. In the outer area of the forbidden mountain, every three kilometers or so, there is a guard tower. In each watchtower, there are many elites among the Qi Practitioners. Moreover, the elite of those Qi Cultivators all have the ability to open up the light for the "Moon Shadow" idol. On Dead Water Island, there are less than a hundred moonshadow statues that have been lit up, and each one of them is extremely precious! As a Qi Practitioner, if you have the ability to enlighten the Moon Shadow, you can be exempted from all taxes for the rest of your life, and you will basically have to eat and drink for the rest of your life.

His gaze was focused on the Forbidden Mountain.

"I also want to work with Xu Yun to sit in the Forbidden Mountain, and then open the light for the 'Moon Shadow'!"

After retracting his gaze, he looked out into the darkness again, however, there was no one outside, it was too deserted. Feeling bored, he closed the curtains.

At this moment, he suddenly heard his father's shouts from downstairs.

"Quick...... Lingxi, come down! ”

"Ah...... Be! ”

Lingxi immediately rushed to the door and ran downstairs. But at this moment, he suddenly felt that something was wrong......

Wait a minute......

It's weird!

You know, he just opened the curtains, and the window is facing the door! If someone from the island office came with playing cards, why couldn't he see it?

Could it be that the other party is walking against the wall? Are you kidding?

Lingxi ran to the same dark living room, and at this time, her parents had gathered in front of the door. At this time, there was a very regular knock on the door.

"We're already at the door!" Lingxi's father shouted, "Give us the cards!" ”

Then......

All eyes are on the crack in the door!

Saw...... Dozens of playing cards are placed face up inside the door!

Of course, when drawing cards, you must not turn the cards over and choose them again, that is to break the rules! And the consequences of breaking the rules, naturally, needless to say!

Lingxi's father first squatted down and said, "I'll choose first." ”

"Hmm......" Although Lingxi's father said that it didn't matter, if he could choose, of course he didn't want to choose the ghost card. In the legend of the Bone Night Festival, it is always not an auspicious thing to choose a ghost card.

"Let's take this one."

After a long time, he finally picked a playing card.

After taking the playing cards out, he slowly flipped them over.

The result is...... Hearts 8.

"It's okay......" he breathed a sigh of relief, and then, it was his wife who came to choose the cards, and the result was a 2 of clubs.

As long as the drawn cards are not ghosts, you have to put the cards back after you have chosen them.

At last...... It's the spirit seal.

He slowly crouched down and looked at the playing cards that had come in through the crack in the door.

Choose...... Which one is good?

But he immediately laughed at himself, anyway, there is no rule at all, does it make a difference which one to choose?

He simply closed his eyes and reached out to take one out.

Then, slowly, he opened his eyes.

But at this moment, his eyes suddenly widened!

This card ......

Not a ghost card, of course. It's a club ace.

But...... Why?

Why is there a ...... in the upper left corner of the card? A trail of blood?

The blood hasn't dried up yet! He put the blood from his fingers under his nose and sniffed it...... He did smell it, blood!

He stared at the door in front of him!

Outside just a door away from him, what is it......

What is it? (To be continued......)
