Chapter 1305: Strange Lullaby
“Mid-April, the rain falls slowly. The stars shine bright and clear.”
“Celestials come, deities go. The Mad Lord panics deep and unsettling.”
“Mid-April, the clouds pass calmly. The sun and moon worries about nothing.”
“The rain comes, the wind goes. The Mad Lord looks back and loses the way home...”
It was at this moment a weird-sounding lullaby came from the far end of the street.
Five children carrying a pinwheel in one hand and a baked sesame-seed cake on the other were hopping, skipping, and jumping down this way while singing a lullaby.
Obviously, Ye Qing did not pay attention to it at first. When the name “Mad Lord” was mentioned though, he subconsciously paid attention and was immediately struck by a wave of dizziness and unease.
It wasn’t because the lullaby was inauspicious, nor was it because the tune was off. It was because of that sense of inauspiciousness and terror that suddenly flooded into his heart like a tangible thing. It was worrying for more reasons than one.
The next moment, Ye Qing appeared in front of the children. No one noticed his sudden appearance.
“Can you tell me who taught you this song, boys and girls?”
Ye Qing probed the children first but found no disturbing aura or presence on their person. It was only then he bent down and asked them the question.
