As I stepped back, the figure in the mirror followed me backwards. The movements of one person and one shadow are exactly the same, the only difference is that there is no pair of leather shoes tied to the heels in the shadow.

After I picked up the shoes and exited the fitting room, Ye Xuan came up: "Why are you holding a pair of dead people's shoes?"

"Get out of the mall first, let's get out!" I snapped the red rope off my heel and walked out of the mall.

Kaoru Nishinomiya's business car had already driven to the entrance of the mall, and she was just about to get in the car when I stopped her. I blocked Kaoru Nishinomiya behind me and looked at the driver, "What happened when you came over?"

"Nothing happened?" said the driver, "I entered the door normally, paid the parking fee, and then came to pick you up." ”

I would like to ask again, the crowds in the mall have poured out of the door. The peach demon pushed me from behind: "There are too many people, get in the car and leave here first." ”

The most afraid of doing things is that someone will watch the excitement, and a large number of people can cover up the breath of the dead, and the warlock can't tell the dead from the living, and it is easy to suffer a dark loss.

I hurriedly pushed Kaoru Nishinomiya into the car, and the driver habitually asked, "Miss, where are we going?"

I hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let's go along the avenue first, and I'll check the information of the student's relatives." ”

Xigong Kaoru said: "That international student's name is Liu Yang. His relative's name is Liu Yougui. Stayed in Little River Village. It's about 50 kilometers from here. We have located the village of Little River. ”

I took the mobile phone that Xigong Kaoru handed over and took a look at it: "Fifty kilometers is not far away, why don't you go to Xiaohe Village." ”

Nishigong Kaoru said: "We originally planned to go directly to Xiaohe Village. But when we arrived at the Shikoku Hotel, we were in crisis and stuck in the neighborhood all the time. ”

"Then go to Xiaohe Village!" I leaned back in my chair as I spoke, but Chen Sanjin fiddled with the electronic map and said, "Brother Ye, why are the maps of the two of us different? ”

I took Chen Sanjin's mobile phone and compared it with Xigong Xun's map, and couldn't help frowning.

According to Xigong Xun's electronic map, there should be a village "Yuwu Village" in the middle of Xiaohe Village and the county seat, but Chen Sanjin's map does not show the location of that village.

"How could there be one less village. I was talking to myself when the driver suddenly said, "Chen Sang, what do you see in front of you?"

I glanced forward through the seat, and my face suddenly changed slightly—I don't know when a white banner picked up with a bamboo pole appeared on the side of the road.

The banner hanging on the bamboo pole was blown by the wind, and turned around towards the front of the car, and the five white ears under the banner were like human hands, and the five fingers were raised in the air and stopped horizontally in the air.

Soul Banner!

As soon as I saw the appearance of the flag, the bamboo pole that provoked the white banner was broken into two pieces with a click, and the half of the bamboo pole with the soul-attracting banner was blown by the wind, and rushed straight to the front of the car.

The driver subconsciously wanted to hit the wheels, and Liu Shengjun, who was sitting next to him, reached out and grabbed the steering wheel, and violently pulled the car back into place. The white flags that came from the opposite side just slapped flat on the car window, and slowly slid to the ground against the glass.

The driver stepped on the brakes and said with a pale face: "That thing just now had my name written on it." Am I ...... Are you going to die?"

I raised my hand and motioned to Ye Xuan and the others to sit in the car and not move, jumped out of the car myself, and picked up the white flag, which was indeed written "Xiao Sachuan" in Chinese characters. Especially the last stroke of the Sichuan character, it is clear that it is the traces left by the ink blown away by the peach demon.

When I looked back at the driver with the white flag, he unconsciously grinned at me.

I was slightly stunned, and the man smiled at me again, put his hands on the steering wheel, and slowly fell down, lying on the car as if he was sleeping.

My first reaction was: the man is dead!

Yanagi reached out and touched the other man's neck and shook his head at me.

"Get the body down first!" I pulled the car door and dragged the body to the side of the road, picking the corpse's clothes with a knife.

The peach demon shook his head and said, "No, I can't test the result." At most, it is a normal death. ”

When I looked at the peach demon, the latter said, "This is a legendary magic called meridian soul summoning. People who are entangled in this kind of magic will keep appearing around them things that are used by dead people. You accidentally used what the dead used for yourself. It's the same as saying that you have a connection with the underworld. The people of Hades will come and pick you up soon. The man was bound to die in six hours. ”

I vaguely seem to have heard of this.

It's like the older generation doesn't let children touch things related to the dead, some people say that if they touch it, they will lose their longevity, and some people say that there is yin energy on it, and if they are hit by yin energy, they will be unlucky, or they will simply get seriously ill.

The words of the older generation are not unfounded, it's just that no one associates them with occult arts.

I said in a deep voice, "What sect does this secret art come from?"

The peach demon said solemnly: "There is no sect, the legend is from the underworld." Therefore, the meridian soul is also called the edict of the king of Hades. It is Hades who is recruiting people to go to the underworld. ”

I couldn't help but gasp, and Chen Sanjin also asked, "Can this secret technique be cracked?"

Peach Demon said: "There is a way to crack the legend, but no one has tried it." According to legend, a person who is entangled in a secret art will not die as long as he escapes three times. Hades will not accept it. And the man lived forever. ”

"What do you mean?" I guessed the secret of the magic, but I couldn't believe it.

Peach Demon said: "It is said that the origin of divine art is because there is a warlock who is close to the end of his life and made a bet with the king of Hades. The content of the gambling contract escaped Hades three times and did not die, and Hades would tick off his name in the book of life and death. And he lived forever. ”

Peach Demon said: "But I don't think this statement is credible. In mythology, writing off the book of life and death is a taboo against heaven. Even Hades wouldn't do it. Moreover, the king of Hades is the righteous god of the underworld and is known as the son of Yama. I think that the so-called meridian soul summoning should be a kind of provocation by the warlock to the underworld, using secret magic to attract the yin cha and capture the living. ”

I said in a deep voice, "You mean, we can find the person who uses the secret art to completely dissolve the secret art, right?"

"I don't know!" Peach Demon shook his head and said, "Meridian Soul Summoning is a legend, I think Tianqing can know better." Or, you ask. ”

I picked up the phone and dialed Tianqing: "I have something to look for you." ”

Tianqing roared, "Don't you see what time it is? You don't have to sleep?"

I hurriedly said, "I'll add the service fee!"

A word squeezed out from between his teeth: "Say!"

"I want to know what's going on with the Meridian Soul Summoning?"

"Yes!" I instinctively felt that the sky was clear and I knew a lot about the meridian soul calling. Tianqing said, "What words do you see?

"Death tonight!" I asked, "Isn't the word the same?"

Yiyu Tianqing said: "The full name of that secret technique is called Seize Order. There are two types: meridian soul summoning and Hades edict. The meridian soul summoner reads 'I will die tonight', but the edict of Hades reads 'I will die'. You can still be better when you encounter the meridian soul calling, and you can still hide from it if you are careful. If you encounter the edict of Hades, you will have death and no life. ”

I took a deep breath and said, "Is there any difference between these two secret techniques?"

Tianqing explained: "Let's put it this way! The meridian soul summoning is a vendetta, and the edict of the king of Hades is a judgment. Meridian Soul Summoning is something that some of the undead in the underworld seek revenge, so they need certain conditions to trigger. The edict of the king of Hades is a direct killing, just like the emperor in ancient times ordered death, and if he received the holy decree, he had to die if he didn't want to die. ”

Tianqing said: "However, the ancestors of this sect have found out, and the edict of the king of Hades will also leave a certain amount of time to explain the future." This is the time for the warlock to make his last struggle. ”

I said in a deep voice: "Why do some people who die under the meridian soul summoning have a peaceful face and someone have a hideous face. ”

Tianqing replied: "The ancestors of this sect have not found an answer to this. The only thing that can be said for sure is that both of these secret techniques have the effect of sitting together, whether you have it intentionally or unintentionally, as long as it is involved in the right and wrong of the order. will be hunted down all the time, never to die. There aren't many instances of the Snatching Order, but so far no one has been able to escape the Taker's pursuit. ”

Yiyu Tianqing continued: "Chen Ye, you must be careful when you encounter an order to snatch it, and be careful. The ancestor of this sect speculated that the seizure of the order was likely a trap. However, he could not find the purpose and reason of the arranger. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. ”

I was silent for a moment and said, "Tianqing, I want to know the reason and environment for the order to take place. ”

Tianqing said: "For specific things, I want to check the secret file." I roughly remember that the two appearances of the Capture Order were related to the Orientals. Once in the Ming Dynasty and once in the Qing Dynasty. If I go back further, I'll need some time. ”

"Okay, let me know as soon as you have news. "As soon as I hung up the phone, my eyes stopped on Kosagawa's body.

I obviously used a knife to pick open the corpse's clothes just now, but in just a few moments, Xiao Sagawa was already dressed neatly, his hands were folded in front of his chest, and there was an extra bouquet of wild flowers in his hand.

I looked at the broken branch on the side of the road and said, "Who of you just paid attention to the corpse?"

Ye Xuan and the others all shook their heads.

The six of us were less than five meters away from the corpse, and the corpse's movements could not be hidden from the eyes and ears of several of us, but the corpse not only dressed silently, but also held a bouquet of wild flowers for himself.

Didn't any of the six of us pay attention to the corpse except for me on the phone?
