The handwriting on the note was badly worn.
There were very few legible characters left, and the font looked like a self - created one.
Strangely enough, Ning Yitao found that she could actually understand it.
There was only a short line of words that she could make out clearly.
"Ning Yitao."
?
These three short characters left Ning Yitao looking puzzled. What did it mean? Was this something meant for her?
Then why did those villagers try to snatch it?
Ning Yitao was completely at a loss.
A sense of foreboding settled in Ning Yitao's heart. It seemed that there were indeed many secrets in this village.
Ning Yitao searched every corner of the house but found no other clues.
The house had been ransacked by the villagers, and for the time being, there were no more leads to be found.
The host who had been following her had long fallen silent. It wasn't that she didn't want to talk, but because of this house.
There was a curse beneath this house.
Although the host had followed Ning Yitao and avoided the curse of the house, staying in this place for too long would affect her fortune.
Especially since she had already been tainted with a gloomy aura outside, and now it had only gotten worse.
Ning Yitao had no choice but to lead the way out first.
As soon as Ning Yitao stepped out, the host left on her own. While she was inside, she had felt unwell. The longer she stayed, the worse her headache became, and her vision grew dark. She was on the verge of fainting.
As soon as she saw Ning Yitao go out, she quickly followed and went to the sidelines to rest.
Once outside the house, Ning Yitao saw the same scene that Chu Zhiyuan and the others had seen when they first arrived.
The villagers, at some unknown time, were all sitting neatly in front of their houses, looking in the direction of the rising sun.
Ning Yitao just gave them a casual glance and didn't pay much attention. Then she headed back to the village entrance.
She had just stood there for a short while when she saw the next car arriving.
The next psychic to arrive was Eve, which really surprised Ning Yitao.
As Eve walked over, Ning Yitao couldn't help but ask with concern:
"Are you fully recovered from your injury? Don't push yourself too hard."
This time, Eve didn't bring her cat with her.
She was dressed differently this time, mainly for warmth, but her bright smile was still as charming as ever. She said:
"Grace and Ji Wangqiu were more seriously injured last time. I only had a minor injury. This is the last episode of the show, so of course I have to come and see."
While they were chatting amiably, Grinton's car also arrived.
He was still wearing his formal suit, with his hair slicked back with hair oil. He looked old - fashioned and stuffy.
During the last episode of the show, he and the other psychics had encountered one of the little ghosts. This little ghost had a perfect geographical advantage, and Grinton was clearly no match for it.
Just when the little ghost was about to deliver the final blow to Grinton, thanks to Ning Yitao closing the entrance to the illusion at the last moment, the little ghost failed to succeed, and Grinton was saved.
Otherwise, Grinton wasn't even sure if he would still be alive to see the next day.
Seeing Grinton, Eve seemed to remember something. She leaned a little closer to Ning Yitao and whispered:
"Actually, Grinton came to the show for a different reason from the other psychics. Most of the powerful psychics came here to compete for the ranking of their abilities, but he didn't."
"He's here because of his family. Grinton is in desperate need of money. He has a child with a congenital disease at home. Everyone knows that treating that disease is like pouring money into a bottomless pit. You can only keep the child alive with money. He has already spent all his savings, but it's still not enough. That's why he came to this show."
Ning Yitao nodded in understanding. She wasn't surprised by this reason.
The first time she saw Grinton, there was a lingering black aura over his spiritual platform, and there were small figures stabbing him in the back.
The collapse of his Tianzhai Palace (a facial feature in Chinese physiognomy) indicated that his descendants would be prone to many disasters and diseases. His Baoshou Palace was in a straight - line shape, which meant he was an upright man who valued family. He would definitely never abandon his child.
When Grinton saw Ning Yitao and the others, he walked over on his own initiative. Looking at Ning Yitao, he said apologetically:
"Thank you for saving us last time. You may not know it, but you really saved us from a desperate situation."
Ning Yitao waved her hand indifferently and said:
"It's okay. But I still want to remind you that the hospital in the southwest corner is not the best choice. Most of the people there are more greedy than kind - hearted. I still suggest you change to a hospital located in the due north. You'll get something different."
Grinton looked completely stunned. He had been shocked by Ning Yitao's strength when they explored the ancient castle together last time. He didn't expect that she could see through him so easily.
Naturally, he believed in Ning Yitao's abilities. Grinton thanked her repeatedly and said that he would change the hospital for his child as soon as he got back.
Several psychics had arrived at the scene one after another.
Henry arrived after Grinton, but as soon as he came, he chose to stay far away from Ning Yitao.
Ning Yitao couldn't ignore him at all. Although Henry was standing far away from her, his eyes were extremely sinister. He just stared at Ning Yitao with a gloomy face.
Henry's gaze was so intense that even Eve couldn't ignore it. She couldn't help but look in his direction.
That one glance really startled Eve. She shifted her body to block Henry's gaze on Ning Yitao and whispered with a frown:
"What's wrong with Henry? His eye sockets are completely sunken in, his eyebrows are filled with a gloomy look, and his face is deathly pale. It seems like his vitality has been sucked away."
Ning Yitao sighed and said:
"He has indeed had his vitality sucked away. Do you remember the staff in his hand? He can't control it, so instead, he's being controlled by the staff. It seems that he didn't take my words to heart last time."
Eve's face was full of pity. She sighed and said:
"Sure enough, any shortcut comes at a price. Henry used to be so sunny, cute, and positive. He loved life so much. But now, just one look at him scares me. I still remember him smiling and telling us that he would definitely work hard to catch up with us."
"Alas, it's really hard to predict the course of events."
Eve couldn't help but sigh with regret.
Eve, who was full of regret, didn't notice that Grinton beside her lowered his head silently after hearing her words.
Eve just kept sighing to herself.
There were only a few psychics at the scene.
Sarawa also came.
These psychics seemed to have spontaneously divided into two groups.
One was led by Ning Yitao, and the other was the camp that had once been led by Sarawa.
After the last incident, Sarawa had automatically distanced herself from those two - faced people.
They were too embarrassed to show up in front of Sarawa anymore. There were a few psychics who wanted to follow Ning Yitao, but they didn't have the courage.
Following Ning Yitao meant facing danger, and this had become a common understanding among the psychics on the show.
The commotion at the village entrance didn't affect the villagers in the village.
Ning Yitao turned back to look at the villagers in the village. The sun was slowly rising.
The villagers were no longer sitting idly. As the first rays of the morning sun shone on the earth, the villagers moved in unison.
They all stood up neatly and took a step forward in the direction of the sun.
The villagers raised their faces towards the sun, and each of them had a strange and pious expression on their faces.
As the sunlight shone on their faces, they seemed to have received a great blessing. They were muttering in an incomprehensible dialect. Although their voices were not loud, everyone present could hear them.
