Chapter 110 Loving You for Ten Lives Since You Pierced My Heart 10
Riding the long shirt person-monster not only gave us the advantage of speed but protection as well. Although strange beasts roared in the forest, we had not been attacked.

Soon we came to a prairie so large that we could not see the edge of it. In the middle was a small lake. On the edge of the lake was a dead tree that at least ten people could wrap their arms around. Although the tree had died, it was still possible to imagine the spectacular sight of the tree when it was alive from the huge tree trunk and branches.

Under that dead tree was a humble treehouse.

The long shirt person slowed down. Wu Jian and I whispered a few words, then prepared to move forward to check out the treehouse. Yan'er again sent the long shirt person to do the investigating. He crawled to the treehouse, and half of his huge body wriggled and squeezed into the house while the other half waited outside.

"Would the man you mentioned be in there?" Wu Jian asked, unsure.

"I don't know, I hope so." I was also uncertain. After all, this place seemed too weird to have a livable house.

The long shirt person stayed in the house for a long time but did not seem to be panicking, which put us at ease.

After a while, Yan'er was worried. "I'll go and see." With that, she drifted slowly toward the treehouse. She seemed to care about the long shirt person even if she treated him as her slave.

"Wait," said Lulu. Yan'er looked at Lulu in confusion and she continued, "Let's go together. I think it's a little strange and could be unsafe.”

Wu Jian nodded and agreed with Lulu that we should all stay together.

We all walked toward the treehouse. I seemed to hear the sound of chewing nearby. Looking at Wu Jian and the others, I saw their faces change a little. The noise didn’t seem to be my hallucination.

The closer we got to the treehouse, the louder the noise was. I grew nervous. Wu Jian whispered a few words to Huang Xiaolong, and he went to the monster’s tail, took a sharp knife from his bag, and, to everyone’s astonishment, inserted it directly into the crevice beneath the carapace.

The tail trembled a little and then resumed wiggling as it had been. Huang Xiaolong looked to Wu Jian and said, "Should I do it again?"

Wu Jian shook his head. The tail of the monster was very large, but Huang Xiaolong hadn’t inserted the knife lightly. From the crack in the tail, a little bit of green liquid began to trail out.

Something had happened. I worried about the long shirt person. It was impossible for him to be unharmed by the injury.

Yan'er also understood this. Her facial expression became worried. She tried to enter the treehouse several times, but she was stopped each time by Sister Hua.

"Sister Hua!" Yan'er shouted anxiously.

Sister Hua pressed her palm over Yan’er’s mouth, then she called the mysterious person who had been at the side of the group.

To tell the truth, this mysterious person felt nonexistent. I couldn’t even remember him being with us other than at the beginning of the journey.

I looked carefully at this mysterious man. He was wrapped in black cloth robes that even covered his head, but he was barefoot. I realized, from the figure of the mystery man, that he was actually likely a woman.

Thinking about it, I realized that since she was from the third floor of the Ghost House, she must be a woman. I hadn’t seen a man in the Ghost House except myself.

"Lulu, who is that?" I asked her in a low voice.

Lulu looked at me and said, "Big Sister."

I did not understand the answer, but when I saw Lulu staring at the treehouse with a complicated expression, I knew she wasn’t in the mood to say anything else and that I should shut up.

Sister Hua and the mystery person spoke in low voices. I could see that they were having a conversation, but I could not hear anything.

The mysterious person went up to the tree house, but the long shirt person had gone through the front entrance and his body now blocked the door.

While I was wondering how the mystery person was going to get in, the long shirt person's tail almost hit her as it wiggled. The mystery person gently waved her hand like she was waving flies away, and the giant tail of the long shirt person moved to one side with a loud noise.

The loud noise seemed to wake the people in the treehouse and the sound of chewing suddenly stopped. I thought the mystery man was going to throw the long shirt person aside and enter the room, but instead, she stood directly in front of the treehouse, putting her hands together and then slowly separating them.

The treehouse suddenly had a huge crack in the wall. As the mystery person's hands separated, the crack got bigger and bigger.

The situation inside became more visible and when I saw the scene clearly, I felt speechless.

Lulu's face grew darker and she looked at the long shirt person in the treehouse with eyes that looked ready to burst into flames.

"Seriously?” Huang Xiaolong cried.

Wu Jian pulled Huang Xiaolong back and then looked at me without a word.

The monster was now bent over a large pot in the middle of the treehouse. His head didn’t fit in, so he stood over the opening of the pot, scooping its contents into his mouth with his little feet.

Yan'er turned into a wisp of smoke and flew in front of the monster, then changed into a person and swiftly kicked over the huge pot.

The monster uttered a shrill cry and then the voice of the long shirt person rang out. "No!"

"No?! I want to kill you!" Yan'er kicked at the monster.

The long shirt person didn’t resist, allowing Yan’er to pummel him while he looked at the food spilled on the ground. I don’t know if it was my imagination, but I swore that the monster actually looked sad.
