Chapter 247: The Coffin Shop
"Old man, have you been living in this house?" Zhao An asked.
The old man nodded and said, "This house has been lived in since my grandfather's generation, and it has been passed down to me. Maybe it's because Zhao An fed him a mouthful of steamed buns last night, or maybe he's used to being lonely, this old man has an excellent attitude towards Zhao An and will answer all questions.
"Your grandfather lives here?" Zhao An glanced at Zhang Mingtang behind him, and felt a little strange in his heart.
The old man in front of him looked to be seventy or eighty years old, and if he had lived here since his grandfather's generation, at least the family had lived here for more than a hundred years.
And Zhang Mingtang said that this is his former residence, could it be that he is almost two hundred years old now? But he has no spiritual power in his body, he is completely a mortal, and he will not live for such a long time.
But this is not the time to think about these things, Zhao An opened his mouth and asked, "That old man, you have lived for so many years, do you think there is anything strange about this river in front of the door?"
The old man shook his head lightly and said, "The three towns in our neighborhood all drink the water of this river, what can be strange? It's just that there have been some times recently, I don't know if I'm too old to hear things clearly, and I always feel as if someone is crying in the river, which is strange." ”
When Zhao An heard this, he hurriedly asked, "When did it start?"
The old man thought carefully for a moment, and said, "Our ancestors have relied on this river for generations, and about a month ago, the fish in this river seemed to have disappeared, and there was not a single one, so my filial son went up to the mountains to hunt game for me, otherwise how could he never come back." ”
Speaking of his son, Lao Tzu's voice couldn't help but be sad, and his nose twitched, and he was about to cry.
"What's there to cry about, maybe your son dislikes you as a burden and doesn't want to support you, so he runs away. Han Da's beating voice sounded again untimely.
The old man was still choked, but after hearing Han Da's words, his breath suddenly froze, and he trembled and stretched out his finger to point at Han Da,
"You're talking nonsense! My son...... My son won't stop supporting me! Get out, get out! You are not welcome in my house!"
Han Da smiled indifferently, and was about to get up from the ground and leave, but he didn't want to suddenly a figure rushed in from outside the door.
This person came in too suddenly, so that he didn't see Han Da lying on the ground at all, his foot stumbled, and with a "bang", the whole person fell to the ground heavily.
"Blind, you, you don't have eyes!" Han Da's angry voice came, obviously because he had just been kicked a lot.
Zhao An followed the prestige, only to see a man who came in, the clothes on his body were tattered, and there was a sour smell, and his hair was scattered to cover his face, and he couldn't see it at all.
The man just struggled to stand up, but he didn't take two steps, but he tripped over Zhou Ze's body again, and then fell heavily to the ground.
"Uh......"
The man's mouth let out an excruciating moan, as if he was enduring some pain, and from time to time there was a "gurgling" sound in his throat, which made people feel that he was about to vomit something in the next moment.
Everyone was stunned when such a person suddenly broke into the room, but the next moment, the old man's eyes trembled and he said,
"Son, you're finally back safely!"
As he spoke, the old man staggered to sit up and was about to get out of bed, but before he could take two steps, he was pulled by Zhao An, "Don't go! ”
Zhao An said in a deep voice, since the man just entered the house, the eight-clawed scarlet pot-bellied spider in his storage bag seemed to see something he liked, and he couldn't help but stir, competing to go out, just like when he met the evil thing.
The old man on the side didn't know, and when he saw that he was being pulled, he hurriedly said, "What are you doing! You let go!" while saying that he couldn't stop struggling, trying to break free.
But this old man is old after all, how can he break free from Zhao An?
Zhao An's consciousness swept away, and sure enough, the person's Yin Hall was dark, and his body was shrouded in a faint layer of black mist, and most of his body was actually half of his body, and his body was emaciated.
"Dad, I asked for a talisman for you, and your illness will be cured soon. A hoarse voice came from the man's throat, and the whole person stood up straight like a zombie, and walked stiffly towards the old man.
As soon as he heard this person's voice, the old man was even more excited, but he was helplessly controlled by Zhao An, and he couldn't move at all.
At this time, Han Da also found out that something was wrong early in the morning, blocked the middle of the man and Zhang Mingtang, looked at the man with some vigilance, protected Zhang Mingtang and Zhou Ze behind him, and blocked him to death.
The man got closer and closer, and suddenly the next moment, the arm that had been black was stabbed out with lightning speed, and it happened to stab the old man struggling beside Zhao An!
Zhao An had already been prepared, and before the arm arrived, his left hand suddenly pushed on his chest, and a clear transparent wind shield immediately blocked in front of the old man.
Strangely enough, at the moment when the shield was touched, the man suddenly let out a scream, holding his hand and looking in pain.
"Son!"
The old man shouted in distress, turned back to Zhao An and scolded, "You villain! I took you in with good intentions, but why did you hurt my son!"
But before he could finish speaking, Zhao An simply pointed directly at the old man's back occipital bone, and the old man's eyes were dark, and he fell softly on Zhao An's body, but he fainted directly.
The next moment, Zhao An grabbed it in the air, and a yellow object suddenly flew out of the man's body and fell straight into his palm.
When I opened my palm, I saw a small triangular talisman lying on the palm of my hand, which was stuffed with bulging, but it was a kind of peace talisman that was ordinary in the mortal world. It's just that unlike the usual peace charm, this talisman is evil, the tentacles are cold, and the black gas on it is actually an evil thing!
The man roared angrily, as if he had been robbed of his life, his face was hideous, his mouth was wide open, and he looked like he was going to fight hard with Zhao An.
Zhao An didn't even look at the man, his fingers flicked in the air, and the man seemed to be nailed to the spot, and he couldn't move for half a minute no matter what.
The next moment, the man's mouth let out terrible screams from time to time, his eyes even began to bleed, and the essence in his body frantically poured into the talisman bag in an instant, and his already thin face quickly dried up and collapsed, and the exposed arms were even thinner at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing that the man's essence was about to be drained, Han Da on the side suddenly changed slightly, "It's evil!"
While speaking, Han Da's right index finger stretched out quickly, and quickly pointed at the man's eyebrows, and the man's whole body suddenly stiffened after being tapped at the center of his eyebrows, and then fell straight down.
"Did you kill someone?" Zhang Mingtang stared at the man's fallen figure in amazement, as if he was trembling with fright, and subconsciously hugged Zhou Ze in his arms, and his body shrank back.
"Who the hell are you? Are you immortal cultivators? What did you use just now?"
A series of questions came out of Zhang Mingtang's mouth, and Han Da looked impatient when he heard it.
"I said, old man, how do you live at such an age? ”
Han Da glanced at Zhang Mingtang with disdain, spat on it, and said, "You still want to be my master with such a little guts, phew!"
As he spoke, Han Da's divine sense glanced at the man's body quickly, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's just that the essence is sucked away by the evil thing, and the person can still be saved." ”
On the other side, Zhao An also tore open the talisman bag in his hand, looked at it fixedly, and immediately gasped.
I saw that there was a grassy villain inside, and there were three bamboo sticks on the eyebrows, forehead and chest of the villain, and it looked exactly like those "floating corpses" in the river!
"It seems that the same cult did it. Zhao An destroyed the two with a look of disgust, "It just so happens that we don't know where to find the whereabouts of the evil cultivator, but we didn't expect someone to take the initiative to send them to the door." ”
Zhao An has a Thousand Illusions Reincarnation, although the man's own depleted essence cannot be repaired in a short period of time, but it is easy to infuse a large amount of vitality into his body and let him wake up quickly.
After the man woke up, Zhao An finally knew about the man.
This man's name is Shao Chuanzhi, he grew up with his father since he was a child, and he is a well-known filial son in ten miles and eight townships.
It was only a month ago that all the fish in the river suddenly disappeared, and his father was seriously ill, so he had no choice but to go up the mountain to cut branches and sell them for money.
Although it was hard to cut down trees, life was also hard, but suddenly one day, he got the news from somewhere, and the coffin shop in the town actually gave alms, as long as everyone wore the talisman bag he distributed, they could have a silver collar.
Shao Chuanzhi naturally didn't believe it at first, but in order to make money for his father's treatment, he went to the coffin shop to get the talisman bag with the attitude of giving it a try, as long as the talisman bag turned from yellow to red, he could return to the coffin shop, exchange the red talisman bag for a hundred taels of silver, and accept a new talisman bag at the same time.
At first, Shao Chuanzhi also felt that he had picked up a big bargain, but the more he got later, he felt that his spirit was getting worse and worse, and even there was a double vision in front of him, and he could hear someone's cry from time to time in his ears.
Not only that, but it was also the case with those who were with him.
But there is no way, but everyone who can come to the coffin shop to receive the talisman bag is a hard-working person, and they all have a reason why they can't do it, and they can only grit their teeth and endure it if they rely on the one hundred taels of silver to survive.
And what scared him the most was that his talisman bag changed color for longer and longer, and the color became darker and darker, and finally after his talisman bag changed color, he did not choose to go to the coffin shop, but ran home.
"Coffin shop?" Zhao An smiled coldly, "It's really capable, that talisman is an evil thing, and it may damage the evil qi in it if placed in other places, and the coffin shop is already rich, and it will naturally come naturally when you put it there, and you will get twice the result with half the effort." ”
"Come up with this kind of shady method, use money to buy other people's lives, it's really damn damned!"
