Chapter 250 - Blood Moon
Chapter 250: Blood Moon
The full moon hung high in the sky, and clear ashes poured down. Even without the light, one could see the path ahead clearly. When one looked up, they would see a vast expanse of white and plain silver.
Along the way, besides the sounds of horse hooves, there was only the sound of rolling wheels.
Looking at the sedan chair in front, Lu Sheng could not help but recall the scenes of ghost marriages in her previous life.
Marrying far away was indeed troublesome. Along the way, it was windy and snowing. By the time she reached her husband’s house, it would probably be unbearable.
Not long after leaving Lin Jiang Mansion, Lu Sheng lifted her head to look at the moon. She realized that the bright moon was stained with some blood.
She frowned and turned back to Chu Sihan. “Lord, look at that moon.”
Chu Sihan looked up and frowned when he saw the moon.
Blood Moon was not a good sign.
Lu Sheng said calmly, “It was fine just now. Why did it suddenly become like this?”
“Brother Chu, what’s wrong?”
Seeing the strange expressions on their faces, Yun Ting hurried over to ask.
When Shi Yi heard that, he came over belatedly.
However, Chu Sihan said in a deep voice, “Quickly find a place to stop.”
Others might not know the meaning of the Blood Moon, but as the highness of the Netherworld, he knew very well.
This kind of moon usually only existed in the Netherworld or the Demon Realm. It would occasionally appear in the human world, which meant that a great calamity was imminent.
Although Shi Yi did not know what had happened, he could tell the severity of the matter from Chu Sihan’s expression.
He said in a low voice, “There’s an inn not far away. I’ll tell my brother.”
The few of them nodded slightly.
After Shi Yi spurred his horse forward, Yun Ting asked in a low voice, “Brother Chu, what happened?”
“Look at that.”
Chu Sihan pointed at the sky and said lightly.
Yun Ting looked up, puzzled. When he saw the scene in the sky, his expression changed drastically. “Blood Moon!”
The originally clear night sky was now completely red, looking scary.
Chu Sihan said in a low voice, “Let’s get everyone to hurry up.”
Yun Ting nodded and was about to inform Shi Yi when he heard Shi Yi’s instructions to hurry up.
When they entered the inn, it suddenly became dark outside. The crimson color in the sky became richer.
In Lu Sheng’s two lifetimes, this was also the first time she saw Blood Moon. In the past, she had only seen it in books. Seeing it today, she could not help but feel curious.
The clouds at the side seemed to have been burned by fire, emitting a strange red color.
About fifteen minutes later, the red clouds suddenly covered the Blood Moon. A strong wind suddenly blew outside the house, and the silk banners in front of the inn flew in the air.
“Go and close the door.”
Seeing that the situation was not right, the shopkeeper quickly instructed the waiter to close the door.
Just as the door closed, a whistling sound came from outside the house.
It was not an exaggeration to say that the wind was filled with the anger of a hundred ghosts.
Lu Sheng stood in front of the window. Through the window lattices, she could see black figures flashing past. It was unknown what had been swept away by the wind.
The window was cracking, as if something was beating it continuously.
“Thankfully, Brother Chu reacted in time. Otherwise, the consequences would be dire.”
When Shi Yi heard the howling wind outside the window, he could not help but secretly rejoice.
If they continued forward, they would probably suffer a crushing defeat.
“Everyone, take this opportunity to rest. We’ll continue our journey after the wind has stopped.”
Chu Sihan took a sip of hot tea and spoke faintly.
When everyone heard that, they all stood up and returned to their rooms.
Chu Sihan looked at Lu Sheng and said in a low voice, “Rest well too. I’ll leave for a while.”
He did not feel anything even though there was a phenomenon in the sky. It must not be a small matter.
