Chapter 88: Soul Lamp
If you die, your soul will naturally leave your body, either staying in the world or going down to the underworld. And if you live, then you will grow up and develop normally, and eventually die of old age.
Sometimes the human body is like a high-speed engine, and a mistake in any one of these links can cause a huge change. And the granddaughter of this old couple is that huge change......
She was not supposed to be born in this world, but she was born under the influence of witchcraft, and her body can only be five or six years old at most, but her mind has been developing, and I don't know what method the old woman used to do this, but what I do know is that the third ghost of the three ghosts of the Ling family must refer to this child, and being able to be called the third ghost shows that she must not be simple.
Mr. Xu said that the candle is called the soul lamp, and this term is the first time I have heard it. But being used by the old woman in the end, I'm afraid it's a killer-level spell, and it's definitely not simple!
The candle was gently blown out in one breath, and the last words of the old woman's hoarse voice still echoed in my ears. The wind was blowing extremely violently, and there seemed to be a faint crying sound in the wind.
"You, you ......"
It was a woman's voice, sharp and soft, like a pinprick in my ears. My heart suddenly panicked, who was talking? How could someone be talking in my ear?
A chill ran down my spine, and I turned sharply to see a woman's face suddenly appear in front of me. It was a pale child, with long hair covering half of her face, and she was wearing a red dress, but there seemed to be blood in her eyes, and she looked at me, and she burst into laughter, and there was blood gushing out between her teeth!
", what the hell!"
I shouted and waved my hand in front of me, but soon the shadow suddenly disappeared in front of me, and the little girl suddenly disappeared.
"Sir, there's a kid here!"
I turned around and said truthfully.
Mr. Xu smiled and said, "I saw it, it was the illusion of the soul lamp." ”
"What is a soul lamp?"
I hurriedly asked.
"The so-called soul lamp, as its name suggests, is a lamp that is lit because of the soul. If the ancient princes had only one son, or if their favorite child died, they would ask a sorcerer to light a lamp for their child. This method can be traced back to about 1,500 years ago, and some wizards in the frontier have difficulty having offspring because of the spells they practice, and even if they do, it is difficult to survive. In order to keep their children by their side, they use an ancient witchcraft to trap their souls in a wick. This wick will not burn out, once ignited, the child's soul will hide in it, and when it is extinguished, the child's soul will be released. Therefore, later people called this method the soul lamp. ”
It's a new term, and I've learned a lot again.
"However, it is rare to see the soul lamp used on a living person. I'm afraid that the granddaughter of your old couple should have died a long time ago, and it was you who used the soul lamp method to keep her soul immortal. But the physical body can't be preserved for too long, so one of the reasons why you killed innocents indiscriminately in the early years was probably to find a suitable body for your child. ”
Mr. Xu said into the darkness.
"Yes...... Yes...... You're smart......"
The girl who was wandering around appeared again, flashing and appearing all around. I kept looking around, and the red figure sometimes disappeared in the darkness, sometimes in my eyes, like what people call a dead soul.
"Fuck, dangling, fuck up. ”
I was a little dizzy by its shaking eyes, and I turned around and shouted.
"Really?"
Unexpectedly, the little girl's voice suddenly came from behind me, and I hurriedly turned my head to look, but saw the little girl looking at me with her head up, looking at me with a sinister face, and then raised her hand suddenly, only to see her holding a handful of broken glass in her hand and stabbing me in the stomach! I was startled, because there was no warning before, I hurriedly took a step back, and at the same time pulled out the Tushan knife and blocked it in front of me. Xu is Tushan knife has the divine power blessed by the wizard, and the little girl in front of her was startled, screamed, and her body immediately disappeared into the darkness again.
"Oh, you're very useful. ”
Mr. Xu is still in the mood to observe my knife.
"Sir, is this girl a human or a ghost?"
I asked, curling my neck.
"It's not a human, but it's not a ghost, it's just a ghost trapped in this lamp, a ghost with no freedom. ”
As soon as Mr. Xu finished speaking, the girl's voice sounded again: "I don't want to be free, I don't want to be free, I'm going to kill you, you bully your grandparents...... I'm going to kill you......"
The last sentence instantly turned into a roar, and then she suddenly appeared in front of Mr. Xu again, holding the glass and stabbing it. Since the old gentleman said that this girl is not a person, then I am not welcome! I raised the Tushan knife in my hand and stabbed it violently, the blade is relatively short, and this time it needs a relatively large span. Unexpectedly, the moment I stabbed the blade past, the little girl suddenly turned her head to stare at me, and then opened her mouth to scream, I saw blood and tears flowing from her eyes, and the scream actually set off a terrible sound wave in an instant, and this sound wave came straight to me. It was like being hit head-on by a car, and I flew out sideways, and when I landed, my chest was so tight that I almost couldn't catch my breath.
"Ahem...... "It took a long time for him to catch his breath, and then he said, "You almost didn't kill me, what the fuck is this!"
Holding the Tushan knife and standing up, the little girl on the opposite side slowly floated into the air, the wind around her became stronger and stronger, the little girl's face turned blue, and the blood in her eyes flowed more and more, the blood fell down her face to the ground, drawing two blood-red tear stains on her pink face, but what was even more terrifying was her eyes, at this moment, there was no trace of the whites of the eyes, and the eyes that had completely turned into pitch black were terrifying.
"Kill you, grandma said let me kill you......"
Her state was very unstable, I couldn't even see her legs under the strong wind, and then her body, and the whole body seemed to become virtual and real, like a picture that was about to disappear. But the wind around is getting stronger and stronger, and the temperature around it has dropped very terrifyingly, almost dropping by more than a dozen degrees in a few minutes. I had chills, the ground was starting to freeze, and I could even drink white gas in my mouth.
"Both, just one reminder in the next time, if you don't take her back, there will only be two. The first is that I disperse it, and the second is that the soul dissipates and attracts ghosts. Either way, I don't think it's what the two of you want. ”
Mr. Xu held the short staff and asked calmly.
"Don't be ashamed, my granddaughter killed him!"
The old woman standing in the shadows shouted, and the little girl in the sky screamed, turning into a shadow and rushing towards Mr. Xu.
"Print!"
Under the terrible scream, Mr. Xu raised his hand and touched the little girl in the air lightly, and there was a white light on his fingertips, which was not strong but he heard the little girl's sharp scream, and then his body fell backwards, and he fell from the air, slid on the ground for a long distance and landed in front of me.
I looked down and saw that her face began to shatter like a mask, her porcelain white face shattered layer by layer, and a large number of cracks began to spread along her face, as if I saw a broken toy.
"How so?"
I hadn't seen many ghosts, and I felt a little strange at this time, and I reached out and touched the ghost's face while holding up the Tushan knife. At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in my ears: "Curiosity is very heavy." ”
I turned my head suddenly, but my brain suddenly became madly dizzy as if it had been hit hard, and my brain was like a short circuit, and all kinds of sounds kept rushing into my head. It's like seeing the bridges in the movie, and it's like watching the marquee, one after another, page after page, constantly flashing in front of my eyes, but what I see is someone else's life, and what I see is someone else's fate.
"This kid isn't mine!"
"Damn you! I can't have offspring, this child is a wild seed for you and outsiders!"
"Wow Wow ......"
Finally all the voices turned into crying, and it was pitch black before my eyes, and I suddenly fell to the ground and fainted. “
