Chapter 34: The Muppets
The moonlight was like a pour, and the evil wind of the night of Bailongdui whimpered, swimming in the cracks of the earthen platform, and soon, the moonlight was obscured by the ghostly thin clouds in the sky, and the orange fire in my hand flickered, and there was a feeling that it would be extinguished at any time.

A few steps away from us in the darkness, in addition to the long-tongued woman and the tall man, there was a middle-aged woman curled up in the middle, her facial features were particularly small, and there were five blood marks on her white dough-like face that flowed out of the "eyes, nose, and mouth" respectively, and the two were commensurate together, looking like a bleeding faceless man from a distance, and it was particularly terrifying.
The three of them stared at us gloomily, looking a little sickly, the old ancestor and the little Taoist priest slowly stood up, and the red copper and lightning strike mahogany swords were very sharp against the evil ghosts, but now they were useless......
"Oh~~~" Just when I was nervous, a long inhalation grabbed my attention, I looked back in amazement, looking at the treasure lying on the ground, his eyes were open, his breathing was like a whirlpool, and the air around him was inhaled into the lungs for a moment.
I watched this scene in disbelief, there was no possibility, I had just probed the treasure for his snort, and he really didn't breathe...... Now this ...... Could it be a return to the light, or a deceitful corpse? I glanced at the old ancestor and the little Taoist priest, and it was obvious that they couldn't believe it.
Bao Cai's eyes widened, his chest heaving from wheezing, he stared blankly at the sky above him, and asked faintly, "Am I still alive?"
To tell the truth, my mood was very calm at this time, and there was a different kind of emotion brewing in this calm, "stunned, confused, excited...... I put the torch aside and grabbed his hand with trepidation, although his hand was cold and unpopular, it was trembling slightly, I took a breath, and said without waves in my dry mouth: "You are still alive......"
Baocai turned his head sideways, looked at me, smiled slightly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Just ...... Just now I have seen the impermanence of black and white, but when I look back, I see you and Fat Chen lying in the pile of treasures, I ...... I ran back in a fit of rage......"
I don't know if the treasure "resurrection" is a dream, or real, so I have been looking at him intently, and after he finished speaking, I stretched out my hand and flicked his head with my fingers, and he screamed "ouch", his eyes were full of inexplicability, and he said with disgust: "Son, you are crazy! I am ...... It's all so angry, why are you willing to beat me?"
When he said this, I had a feeling of seeing the light through the clouds, and I was thinking in my heart: "Baocai is not dead! I really am not dead!" I came back to my senses, looked at him, excited emotions rippled in my heart, and I choked in my throat: "Damn, it is also a loss for me and Lao Liao to appear and pull you back from the ghost gate." ”
Baocai propped up his body and said playfully: "The only one who can bring me out of the ghost gate is the God of Wealth ......" said, he touched his trachea and complained: "That thing has so much strength, my neck almost broke him......" He raised his head and saw the back of the old ancestor and the little Taoist, he was still happy, but his eyes went further, he gasped, and a sense of horror appeared on his face, "I was bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of the well rope", and his tongue knotted and said: "This-this-ghost-" Before he could finish speaking, he rolled his eyes, and his upper body fell straight down again.
"Bao Ye!" I bowed down, thinking that he was really back to light, and my heart tightened, but seeing the regular ups and downs in his chest, I breathed a sigh of relief, I just ...... My heart suddenly froze, the old ancestor and the little Taoist priest looked ahead, and the three ghosts had long since disappeared.
"Which side?" the old ancestor glanced sharply around.
The little Taoist priest was calm, closed his eyes and felt the movement around him, I looked at them extremely nervously, at this moment, I suddenly felt a chill behind me, the hairs on my arms shrugged, and I screamed in pain, and said in a trembling voice: "In ...... In my ...... I...... Later...... "Ghosts are also very powerful, and they love to bully relatively weak people, and I and Baocai and Wang Bajian are always entangled, maybe because my heart is not strong enough."
When the little Taoist priest heard this, Huo Ran opened his eyes, held the peachwood sword in one hand, and suddenly slapped a palm with the other hand, hitting the hilt of the sword, the peachwood sword trembled and flew straight to the top of my head, I have a phobia of the tip, this look hurriedly closed his eyes, pounced on Wang Bajian, only to hear a scream behind him, I turned around and looked, and the white-faced woman who was scattered suddenly dispersed like smoke, and then soon she gathered in one place again.
The old ancestor frowned and muttered, "How can this be?" Just as I was in shock, a dark face behind him faintly emerged from the darkness, and I tensed my nerves and shouted, "Be careful!"
The old ancestor looked at the six roads and listened to all directions, and he had already noticed it, he quickly turned around, and the red copper swept over the neck of the tall man. However, with this sharp blow, although the evil ghost was separated by its head, the corners of its mouth cracked into a wicked smile.
Just look at its nose wrinkled, the head flew quickly towards the ancestor, the ancestor fell backwards again and again, the evil thing is that the tall man's body can also capture the direction of the ancestor without eyes, it rushed to the front of the ancestor, the huge palm wanted to break the ancestor's chest, the ancestor was hit up and down, the situation was dangerous, but he was a skilled person after all, in a panic, he quickly turned back twice, and escaped.
This is the first time I have seen the old ancestor and the little Taoist fight so passively, I think he spent a lot of energy on dealing with the library master just now, and now he is fighting three evil ghosts who can't be killed at all, even if they are strong, they can't withstand this consumption. And now the terrible thing is that the red copper and mahogany swords will not work against them at all.
These things are erratic, it is really difficult to catch, when the old ancestor and the little Taoist counterattacked, they were cunningly hidden in the darkness, the old ancestor said: "It's not a way to fight endlessly like this......"
The little Taoist priest nodded and said, "Indeed...... However, it was strange that the evil qi I felt was all coming from the hole, and there was no heavy evil qi condensation on the three yin spirits, so it was difficult to determine their location. ”
The old ancestor said: "How can it be ......" He frowned slightly, as if he had thought of something, and said, "No...... You said that these Yin Spirits were sealed by the Soul Suppression Nail, so how did they come out?"
Regarding the question of the ancestors, in fact, I have also thought that the soul suppression nail has been suppressing them for so long, and it should not be said that it is invalid now...... Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard an extremely strange sneer behind me, my back was cold, and before I could react, my shoulders were tightly clamped by a cold air, and I screamed in panic, and the headless ghost dragged me backwards, and my feet kicked wildly on the gravel! Seeing this, the old ancestor and the little Taoist priest were about to step forward to help, but they were blocked by two female ghosts.
The head floated in front of me, triangular eyes stared at me tightly, I was dragged into the trough, frightened, at this moment, someone grabbed my calf, shouted: "Son, hold on!" It was a treasure, he woke up at a critical time, his face was covered with a layer of sand, it is estimated that I just kicked the ground, shoveled on his face.
He kept his eyes open slightly, his mouth tightly closed, like a toothless old woman dragging me desperately to prevent me from being dragged into the trough.
Seeing this, the head floating in the air looked at Bao Cai with resentment, and then suddenly flew over, biting his shoulder, and Bao Cai raised his head in pain and screamed wildly
When I saw this, I shouted in a panic: "Baocai, let go, take the Mongolian knife!"
Cold sweat broke out on Baocai's forehead, and he let go of one hand to take out the knife on his waist, but it was so painful that his whole body was shaking, and the Mongolian knife fell to the ground as soon as he took it out.
In this case, I don't know where I got the strength, and I twisted my shoulders frantically, breaking free from the giant hand of the headless ghost. I took out the Mongolian knife and pounced forward, and plunged the knife into the head of the evil ghost, I thought that the matter was settled, but the head released its mouth to bite the treasure, and turned around slowly, and faced me, I was stared at by its triangular fierce eyes for a while, the whole person couldn't help but stiffen, I didn't expect that he had a Mongolian knife stuck in his head, and it hadn't been destroyed, this was so terrifying!
Despair filled my heart in an instant, I sat on my back on the ground, my heart was in a hurry, my head hurt when I landed, the feeling of the pot of lead became stronger and stronger, so strong that I wanted to vomit! In an instant, my eyes began to blur, and in the haze, I saw that the old ancestor was also kneeling on the ground, looking pained, and the little Taoist priest saw this, and hurriedly blocked the attack for him.
Baocai saw that I was wrong at this time, and shouted a few times, and when he saw that I was very uncomfortable, he did not care about being afraid, and picked up the Mongolian knife that had fallen from the ground, and waved it with his hand, so as not to let the head come near me.
I held my head in my hands, and an image popped into my mind: I saw the corpse of an old man lying in a trough of earth, with a terrifying doll hanging from his waist. I asked the little Taoist what it was, and the little Taoist couldn't answer, but it looked weird, the corners of its mouth seemed to be smiling, and no matter what angle we stood on, its emotionless eyes seemed to be staring at us.
No one knew what it did, and the big guy didn't pay any attention to it, and not long after we left, the fist-sized doll suddenly stood up in the dark hole, and it looked at our back, grinning at the corners of its mouth, and soon after, something slowly came out of its body, forming a hand, which was propped up on the body of the dried corpse, and quietly burst out of the trough......
I shuddered when I saw this picture...... Illusion? Is this what our ancestors said about "foreknowledge"? But strangely, this is not like foreknowledge, but like the past tense, and it evokes a familiar feeling in my heart, as if the picture just now was something I had personally experienced. I took a deep breath and looked at the old ancestor, who gasped and looked at me.
Is it a tricky doll manipulating a ghost? I've seen something like that in the waist of a long-tongued female ghost before......
Without saying much, the old ancestor stood up and shouted to the little Taoist: "The corpses in the soil trough, there is a problem with the puppets hanging on their waists!" Sure enough, the problem is the puppets, and the old ancestor and I sensed it at the same time......
When the little Taoist priest heard this, he didn't bother to ask more questions at the moment, and waved his peachwood sword to disperse the ghost of the white-faced woman, and in between, he seemed to think of something, and Rin said, "Damn! I know what it is!" (To be continued.) )
