Volume Four, Volume 14, Chapter 33, Bone Night Festival, a ghost card game!

The sea water kept striking the beach.

The blue ocean continues to the end of the sea level, but although it is a sunny day, it is impossible for any seagulls to soar on the sea.

Death of living beings.

This island, and even the surrounding waters, is like rejecting the existence of all living beings.

Huang Shanyun is strolling by the beach.

She will always be the representative black dress, no matter where she appears, she is as eye-catching as a crow. It even makes people feel that she does not seem to have clothes other than black dress.

"You're indeed here."

Huang Shanyun stopped and turned to Xu Yun with a beautiful and unrestrained face.

Her eyes were as unsightly as a dead person, and she could not see any vitality.

The waves slapped the sea, and the waves were higher and higher.

Xu Yun walked towards her and soon came to her. At this time, the two of them were very close and could hear the sound of each other's breathing.

"You won't really want to leave this island?"

When Huang Shanyun heard Xu Yun say this, he moved his eyes to the sea.

"I don't remember what I said."

"You said it."

"Then you forget it."

A gust of wind blew, blowing Huang Shanyun's long hair up and drifting across Xu Yun's face.

"Go back with me. It's very cold here. And you haven't forgotten what day it is, right? You can't go out at night."

Afterwards, without waiting for Huang Shanyun to answer, he grabbed her slender hand and walked back. Shanyun didn't say anything. Then he let Xu Yun hold her hand.

The island of backwater...

An isolated island that is almost completely closed to the outside world. This island does not belong to the territory of any country. It is located in a sea area that is absolutely impossible to find on a map. Here, people live a completely self-sufficient life and have no communication with the outside world.

It is like an isolated island that exists like a utopia.

The population of this island is only two or three thousand people, most of whom live in small towns in the central area of ​​the island, while a few live in villages near the sea or in deep mountains. The soil on the island is suitable for growing crops mainly wheat, so the staple food on the island is not rice but pasta. The most important thing is... This island has a phenomenon called "Death of Life" for some strange reason. This phenomenon directly leads to the existence of only humans on this island. From the perspective of the normal food chain, it is an abnormal phenomenon. After all, plants and animals have very important companion relationships, such as flowers need to be pollinated by butterflies, but there is this completely unreasonable phenomenon on this island.

But compared to this, the most unusual thing on this island is...

When he was already far away from the sea and entered a forest, Xu Yun said to Huang Shanyun: "After the 'Moon Shadow Festival', we will graduate. I have decided... to go on a 'Forbidden Mountain' tour!"

Huang Shanyun was stunned when he heard this.

"Forbidden mountain patrol?"

"Yes. I am one of the best students in this class of Qi training masters. Since that's the case, of course I should join the mountain ban patrol and hunting work."

"Are you sure? There is danger in banning mountain patrols. In the past ten years..."

"I have mentioned it to Lingxi. He said that he is willing to partner with me and go to the Forbidden Mountains to visit after the 'Moon Shadow Festival'."

"Don't go."

However, at this moment, Huang Shanyun stopped. She grabbed Xu Yun's hand tightly.

"Shanyun?" Xu Yun showed a confused look.

"Absolutely don't go..." Shanyun said in a firm tone: "Don't go... I'm afraid, don't go to the Forbidden Mountain!"

At this moment, although her eyes were still full of death, Xu Yun could see a trace of it from it...

Human feelings!

"I won't go into the Forbidden Mountain. I'm just on the outskirts of Forbidden Mountain. What's more, there are Qi training masters who have been guarding outside for many years..."

However, Shanyun seemed to have not heard Xu Yun's words at all, and still held Xu Yun's sleeve tightly and refused to let go.

At this moment... Xu Yun suddenly saw something incredible!

"What's going on?"

He actually saw a statue falling from a tree in the distance!

"The 'Moon Shadow' statue?"

It was a statue lying across the ground with cracks, and the statue was carved with a white and slender figure on the back.

Yes...the back! Only the statue on the back is carved!

This statue, called "Moon Shadow", is a statue of gods that every islander worships at home on this stagnant island. It can be said that this is the common religious belief of all people on the island. Every year, there will be a "Moon Shadow Festival". On the Moon Shadow Festival, the "Moon Shadow" will appear, indicating whether the next year will be a year of harvest or a year of disaster!

Yueying is the statue in front of you with only the back!

"Someone actually discarded the statue of "Yueying"? Aren't you afraid of retribution?" Xu Yun immediately ran up, straightened the statue, and then squatted on the ground, bowing with a pious expression.

However, when Shanyun looked at the "Moon Shadow" statue, he kept retreating. In his eyes, the originally lifeless pupils, there was an expression called "fear" that continued to surge out!

"Please don't blame me, 'Yueying', don't blame me..." Xu Yun took a few prayers to the "Yueying" statue, then helped the statue up and prepared to take it home to offer it again. However, when he turned around, he found that Shanyun was gone.

"Shanyun?"

At dusk.

Xu Yun returned to his residence on the island.

"Are you back?" When my mother saw Xu Yun coming back, she was going to say something, but she saw the "Moon Shadow" statue in Xu Yun's hand!

"That...that's...moon shadow?"

"Yes, mom, I don't know who abandoned the Moon Shadow Statue."

"Yeah...but is it appropriate to bring back the moon shadow statue that others have discarded? Why not take it to the island office?"

"Is Island Office?"

"Well... forget it. Today is a special day, and you can't go out. After all, it's the 'Bone Night Festival' tonight."

"Yes...Bone Night Festival."

Bone Night Festival is a unique festival on the stagnant island. There are many very special festivals on this island. Bone Night Festival is one of the very special festivals.

There is no fixed date for the Bone Night Festival. However, the statue of the "Moon Shadow" will change in the week before the Bone Night Festival, and black tears will flow out of the left eye! Once the Moon Shadow sheds black tears, it means that a week later, the Bone Night Shadow will usher in!

The characteristic of the Bone Night Festival is that everyone on the island must stay at home that night and must not go out. From 7 o'clock in the evening, there may be "people" to visit the home. At that time, the door must be opened. The other party will give a stack of playing cards, and then they must choose one of them. In any case, no matter what, you must not draw two cards, small ghost cards, and big ghost cards!

Once you draw the little ghost card, then this "person" can enter the home!

Once you draw a big ghost card, then the person who draws the card must go outside! It will take an hour before you can come back!

Of course, the "people" who visits naturally cannot be humans, but real ghosts!

But this is just a legend. Everyone regards the people who visit the Bone Night Festival as ghosts dressed up by humans, just like no one will treat children who come to the door to dress up as ghosts as real monsters on Halloween. After all, it is just a holiday. However, this festival must be taken seriously. Before the sun sets, you must return home, and there is no exception!

"I have never really drawn a ghost card every year at the Bone Night Festival." Xu Yun re-entered the Yueying statue and said, "Of course, it is necessary to draw cards."

"That's nature. This is a festival that has been passed down on the island. This festival is still very important. You must draw cards at that time."

"Yeah, I got it. I'll go take a shower first."

At 6:30 pm, Xu Yun's father, chief clerk of the Island Office, came back.

As the chief clerk, Xu's father seemed very energetic. As soon as he got home, he immediately reminded: "Don't go out at night! It's the Bone Night Festival!"

"Speaking of it..." Xu Yun suddenly asked a question: "Dad, what if someone suddenly gets sick? Can't you go to see a doctor?"

But my father's answer was decisive.

"If this is the case... then the patient can only go out alone to find a doctor. Apart from that, no one else... can't go out!" (To be continued...)

ps: I will update today... After all, "Dead Curse Island" just started, and I still want to sort out the clues...
Chapter completed!
