Chapter 348: Resigned to fate

As soon as I stood up straight, the two people blocking the window fell to the ground one after another and were silent. Yanagi Joon's face also shone out of the window.

It was only then that I saw a clay basin for burning paper for the dead under my feet. When I landed just now, I stepped on the clay basin without obliqueness, and the paper ash in the basin was lifted into the air by me and fell into my pocket.

Ye Xuan's face turned white with fright: "Old ...... Old class ......"

I waved my hand and said, "Don't talk about this yet, let's go into the house and have a look!"

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw the corpse of Lao Zhangtou lying horizontally outside the inner room, and Liu Shengjun raised his knife and pointed at the door and asked, "Who are you?"

"Chen Ye!" I deliberately moved my body under the light, and the other party breathed a sigh of relief. When Kaoru Nishinomiya saw me, she seemed to want to cry, but she held back her tears and didn't cry.

The first time I saw the peach demons and they were not in the house: "Where are the peach demons?"

"They're out......" Xigong Kaoru told me what happened just now, and before she finished her words, Peach Demon and Chen Sanjin rushed back, and they chased the starling away.

After the peach demon told them how they left, I couldn't help frowning: "It's interlocking!"

The target chosen by the other party is me!

He set up an ambush for me on three sides, whether I went to the paper bridge, or came back to rescue Kaoru Nishimiya, or went to the village to find someone, I had to fall into his trap. The only way I can evade the other party's secret magic is to drop my mission here and leave the village. But that's something that can't happen.

My opponent is very good at taking advantage of other people's psychology, and when I came out of Lao Zhangtou's house, the village chief kept hinting to me that I couldn't go through the gate. The gate has been quietly converted into a tomb gate. When I came back, I subconsciously wanted to jump off the wall. I also deliberately avoided it, just out of the place where the village chief jumped out, but I didn't expect the other party to take a step forward to predict where I landed, and put a paper basin at my feet.

I wasn't in a hurry, Ye Xuan was anxious first: "Old class, what are you still standing for? You have already won the secret technique, why don't you hurry up and find a way!"

I smiled and said, "Can I still cry if I don't stand?" Anyway, I've already been hit by the secret art, so I'll just wait to see what kind of name the meridian soul caller is?"

I simply sat cross-legged on the earthen kang: the meridian soul summoning is to kill people within six hours. In other words, if I want to avoid a catastrophe, I have at least eleven hours to act safely.

I still have a chance to turn the tables!

I don't believe in the secret art of taking orders to drive away demons.

Every world has its own rules, the ghosts of the underworld will not take people's lives unscrupulously, and if the secret art wants to kill, it must give the ghosts and gods a sufficient reason to kill. That reason is the key to saving myself!

But what is that reason?

There is a premise for the meridian soul calling, that is, the living use the things of the dead in order to trigger that kind of secret art.

The first bodyguard to die under the secret technique was to touch the yellow chrysanthemum that was tied together with yellow paper. The bouquet he split with his Toyo sword at that time triggered the arcane technique.

In Oriental culture, chrysanthemums and knives occupy a special place. In a sense, if the chrysanthemum represents death, then the knife is the bridge to death. The bodyguard slashed Huang Ju with a knife, which happened to associate himself with death.

The second person to be killed was the driver Xiao Sagawa, whose name appeared on the Soul Banner after it was written on the Yin paper, which is the thing that leads the deceased into the earth in Chinese funeral culture. Xiao Sagawa's name was on the soul flag, and he died.

In a sense, the living are looking for death by themselves, so as to attract the ghosts and gods of the underworld to detain the soul.

Gongzi, probably understood this, so he quietly killed the waiters in the hotel and refined them into puppets. She did this to protect herself, everything that was close to herself, let the puppet touch it first, and it was just right for the dead to touch the dead person's things, and the secret technique of meridian soul summoning was self-defeating.

I thought of this before I said, "Nishinomiya Kaoru, can you contact Gongzi?"

"Yes!" Nishinomiya Kaoru nodded and said, "Do you want to talk to her?"

I said, "Send her a message and tell her to find a temple to hide, or she will die." Her method of refining the puppet can avoid the meridian soul call, but she can't avoid the edict of Hades. ”

Kaoru Nishinomiya nodded as if he didn't understand, dialed Gongzi's phone, and repeated my words. Gongzi smiled on the other side of the phone: "Miss Xun, Chen Ye asked you to say this, right? I told you a long time ago, he has no ability." He must have been in a fatal crisis to make up such a rhetoric and wanted me to go back. Tell him that there is nothing so simple in the world. ”

Kaoru Nishinomiya didn't know how to go on, so she couldn't help but look at me. I gestured out the window. Nishinomiya Kaoru said: "Aunt Gongzi, are your people already killed, and two corpses have already found me." ”

Gongzi smiled: "Then what can it be? Is there an immortal mission in this world?"

I motioned to Xigong Xun to turn on the speakerphone and said with a faint smile: "You probably don't know, the order is divided into the Meridian Soul Summoning and the Edict of the King of Hades! You use the dead to crack the Meridian Soul Summoning is of course another way, but you also kill people, the edict of the king of Hades is dedicated to killing the guilty, and you will soon wait for the edict of the king of Hades." If you want to live, you come to me. ”

Gongzi sneered, "Chen Ye, put away your ridiculous tricks! I've never heard of any Hades edicts. But if you want to ask me for help, you'll have to pay a price. You don't like your eyes so much, gouge out one of your eyes, I can consider going over and saving you. ”

I sneered, "I can say the same thing to you." If you want to ask me for help, take a look at it first. Kaoru Nishinomiya, hang up the phone!"

Ye Xuan was anxious: "Old class, what are you going to do? This is all burning eyebrows, are you still in the mood to quarrel with others?"

I laughed, "I'm sure of one thing. Now, I'm at least sure that Gongzi is also near Xiaohe Village, and I know what's going on on our side? ”

Ye Xuan hurriedly said, "How to solve it?"

"Wait until I think about it!" I wasn't joking with Ye Xuan, but I got useful information from Gongzi.

If my opponent wants to calculate a person, he will find a way to get him into a trap. Even if Gongzi is surrounded by puppets, it is also difficult to guarantee his absolute safety. That's why I suspect that she has a way to crack the secret arts, and the temptation just now is enough for me to be sure that Gongzi can crack the meridian soul calling.

The key to meridian soul summoning is to ask for the life of the ghosts.

What if the demons don't come?

Does Gongzi have a way to intercept ghosts and gods?

When I looked up at the window, I couldn't help but move slightly, pushed open the window and dragged the corpse outside into the house: "Little demon, autopsy!"

Although the peach demon is not the heir of the same lineage, the ability of the autopsy is much better than mine, and I didn't get Jingyuan back last time, which is somewhat regrettable. When I go back on this mission, I will definitely find a way to dig Jingyuan into the bureau.

After examining the corpse, the peach demon said, "The corpse squatting in the corner of the wall is self-suicide and died of poisoning." Judging from the appearance of the corpse, he was not taking a poison that could be immediately fatal, and the deceased walked out for some distance after taking the poison. The other body is believed to have died of a heart attack. ”

I understand!

Gongzi sent someone over to take Xigong Kaoru away, but asked the other party to take the poison before leaving, so that he would die just when he arrived outside the window of Zhang's house. It turned out that Gongzi's method of cracking the secret technique was the same as the reason why Liu Shengjun sent his bodyguards to cut Huang Ju with a knife, which was to fight for his life.

Legend has it that the ghosts of the underworld are detaining the souls, and there is also a precedence, and they will take away the undead who are the first to breathe. Wait until you send people to Huangquan Road, and pick up the next person at the back end. As long as Gongzi kills a person just right before the arrival of the ghosts and gods, he can delay the onset of the secret arts.

She doesn't let the living be interrogated, for fear of inadvertently leaving us a chance to escape.

Even if I guessed the way to save Gongzi's life, I wouldn't use it.

The people around me are my friends, brothers, who can I sacrifice to save myself?

I stood up and walked slowly to the window, and a myriad of thoughts raced through my head.

The old devil's diary wrote that he and Nishinomiya Yusuke were locked up in prison for a few days before they were interrogated by the Black Dragon Society. The Black Dragon Society also repeatedly mentioned ponchos.

If I'm not mistaken, the poncho he and Nishinomiya Yusuke wore should have become a shroud worn by a dead man at some point, or a quilt used to cover a corpse. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been mentioned repeatedly.

However, neither the old devil nor Nishinomiya Yusuke died! How did the two of them escape the secret art?

I turned around and said, "Little demon, you check for me, after the devil soldiers occupied the county seat, where did the headquarters be set up, be quick! Xuanzi, hurry up and pick up the car, let's go to the county seat quickly!"

Ye Xuan drove the car directly to the edge of Xiaohe Village, and when I got into the car, he asked, "Old class, have you thought of a way to crack the secret art?"

I said, "Judging by the old devil's diary, neither he nor Yusuke Nishinomiya are warlocks. However, the two of them survived after the squadron disappeared. It wasn't because the ghosts didn't look for them, but because they couldn't find where they were! They were prisoners at the time, and they couldn't take advantage of the time, people, and people, and they must have taken advantage of the land, so they could be regarded as escaping. The reason they were able to survive must have been in the place where they were held. ”

"When the old devils were locked up, they had just conquered the county seat, and they definitely didn't have time to build a regular headquarters, so they could only occupy the original building. The place where the little devil is used as a command is my only chance to live. Hurry up and drive to the county seat. ”

Chen Sanjin couldn't help but say: "It's been decades since the Anti-Japanese War was won, what if that place is demolished?"

As soon as Chen Sanjin finished speaking, he gave himself a mouth!

I whispered, "Leave it to fate!"
