Chapter 319: Chapter 319 Ye You Deep Sleep_1
Qin Sisi looked at Ye You in confusion, and Ye You continued, "Give
all the yellow paper and burn the other things first."
Qin Sisi hesitated for a mont and, as instructed by Ye You, she emptied a big bag of yellow paper in front of him.
After giving all the yellow paper to Ye You, Qin Sisi arranged the joss paper and the gold ingots, then said in a low voice, "Fire magic, ignite!"
She quickly pointed her two fingers at the direction of the joss paper. In a blink of an eye, the colorful joss paper started burning, and soon the gold ingots next to them were also engulfed in the flickering red and yellow flas.
Qin Sisi turned to look at Ye You, only to find him injecting spiritual power into the yellow paper, one pack after another.
Qin Sisi was startled, and then she understood that Lan Di didn’t want ordinary yellow paper, but the one infused with spiritual power, the sa kind used to summon him.
Qin Sisi quickly walked over to Ye You and asked softly, "Do you have to do this with every pack?"
Ye You nodded without speaking, his claws remained busy in a continuous motion, infusing points of silver glows into the yellow paper.
Seeing the pile of yellow paper that resembled a small mountain, Qin Sisi couldn’t help feeling a pang of regret for buying so much, wondering about the amount of spiritual power Ye You had to expend.
As if guessing Qin Sisi’s thoughts, Ye You, while infusing spiritual power into the yellow paper, said, "Lan Di asked for a lot for a reason. If we give less, we might not be able to complete the task."
Qin Sisi nodded. She knew Ye You was right, but seeing him working non-stop still made her feel both heartache and sadness.
Ye You glanced at Qin Sisi and said in a deep voice, "You go ahead with your work, we should both hurry."
Coming back to her senses, Qin Sisi cast a lingering look at Ye You and returned to the bonfire she had lit.
The joss paper in the fire had almost completely burned out, only a few gold ingots were still emitting tiny flas.
Qin Sisi quickly took more joss paper and gold ingots from the bag and put them on the fire, they imdiately started burning fiercely.
It was a cold and quiet midwinter night. The flickering colorful flas seed to add a bit of vigor to this withered season.
Standing by the burning fire, Qin Sisi found she wasn’t feeling cold, thanks to the warm coat she was wearing.
Qin Sisi kept on burning joss paper and gold ingots while occasionally glancing in Ye You’s direction.
His movents initially quick, Ye You increasingly slowed down, this made Qin Sisi feel more and more anxious.
Just as Qin Sisi was about to finish burning the joss paper and gold ingots she had, Ye You also completed infusing spiritual power into the yellow paper, he took a breather and beckoned Qin Sisi to co and take them.
Qin Sisi acknowledged and hurried over to Ye You, and to her surprise, she heard him breathing sowhat heavily.
Qin Sisi’s heart skipped a beat, "Xiao Hei, how are you feeling?" she blurted out.
Ye You slowly laid down on the ground, lifted his head and said to Qin Sisi, "Sisi, leave the rest to you. Get going once you finish and don’t look back. I need to rest for a while and won’t wake up until a day later, don’t worry."
Having said that, Ye You laid his head on his clasped paws and gently closed his eyes.
Qin Sisi’s eyes welled up with tears, just barely holding them back.
She forced herself to calm down, picked up a few packs of yellow paper and walked back to the bonfire, scattering the yellow paper on the fire.
The thin yellow paper caught fire imdiately, even spreading out sparks that seed like twinkling stars.
There was a lot of yellow paper, and Qin Sisi had to make several trips to carry all of it to the fire. She picked up the packs one by one, scattering them, and then throwing them into the fire.
The burning speed of the yellow paper was actually faster than that of the joss paper and gold ingots. But with Ye You on her mind, she couldn’t help urging the burning speed to hasten.
When all the yellow paper had finally turned to ashes, Qin Sisi let out a long sigh of relief. After standing and stretching her numb legs, she turned around and picked up Ye You who was laying on the ground in deep sleep. Under the dim light of distant street lamps, she quickly headed towards the exit of the park.
After walking a distance of twenty or thirty ters, Qin Sisi heard a "whoosh" sound from behind her, followed by a tumult of noise, as if many people had suddenly appeared.
Both fearful and curious, Qin Sisi wanted to look back, but rembering Ye You’s instruction- not to look back, she had to suppress her curiosity and hurriedly continued walking towards the distance.
As Qin Sisi kept walking, the sound from behind grew fainter until finally, she could hear nothing.
Qin Sisi let out a sigh of relief, realizing she had been practically jogging all the while, her legs felt sowhat sore.
Qin Sisi slowed her pace, walking along the sidewalk next to the road towards her place of residence.
This place was remote, and at this mont, it was deadly silent.
Today was the last day of November, the last day of the winter month. There was no moonlight, and the lights from the lampposts on both sides of the road seed more blurred and dim.
"Hey, beautiful!" A frivolous greeting rang out from behind her, the voice unfamiliar.
Qin Sisi paused, feeling a bit uneasy. There was clearly no one behind her just now. How could soone suddenly be there?
Just as Qin Sisi was about to look back, she rembered Ye You’s warning: don’t look back.
Qin Sisi clenched her teeth and pretended not to hear, continuing her stride, while quietly gripping the Divine Dog’s Fury in her right hand.
"Beauty, how about making friends?" The frivolous voice sounded again.
Qin Sisi quickened her pace while her arm, holding onto Ye You, unconsciously tightened.
"Beauty, don’t run so fast!" The voice sounded once again.
Qin Sisi stopped abruptly, looking forward anxiously, because this ti the voice wasn’t coming from behind but from the front.
Not far from her under a street lamp, stood a figure cloaked in black.
He wore a black leather jacket, black dangling pants with a thick, long gold chain hanging from the belt loops, his hair dyed burgundy and had a cigarette dangling from his mouth , a clear suggest he was a street ruffian .
Qin Sisi clutched Ye You tightly, her eyes gradually calming, and gently raised the Divine Dog’s Fury in her hand.
She could sense the frigid aura emanating from the leather jacket and saw no shadows cast by the man under the street light. Clearly, he was a ghost.
Since it was a ghost, he would definitely be no match for the Divine Dog’s Fury that Ye You had bestowed upon her.
The ruffian in the leather jacket looked at the beautiful Qin Sisi, his mouth curved into a lewd smile, and he floated towards her, feet leaving the ground.
"Dying under a peony flower, even as a ghost I am still a playboy. It’s been a while since I tasted a woman," he said.
As he spoke lewdly, he reached out towards Qin Sisi as if trying to hold her delicate chin.
