Chapter 22: The Other

"Why is it dark?" said a catcher behind Zhou Qingqing in surprise.

When they entered the house, it was still afternoon, and there was still a long time before dusk, but at this time, it suddenly darkened, as if it had suddenly entered the night.

In front of them, a slightly old stone path stretched to the end, and there was an ordinary thatched hut with a closed door, which exuded an eerie atmosphere.

"Is it an illusion?" Zhou Qingqing frowned slightly, and turned his head to look at several companions next to him, especially the "advisor" Monk Jinggen.

It was when Monk Jinggen heard about the haunting case that he volunteered to serve as Zhou Qingqing's adviser, otherwise Zhou Qingqing would be able to fight more than him, so it would be his turn to help.

"It's not. Monk Jinggen and Fang Xuan shook their heads in denial at the same time, and then glanced at each other in surprise.

Of course, the Jinggen monk also has real skills, but he has been in the Daguang Temple for many years, and his martial arts may be commonplace, but he has learned a lot of Buddhism.

The little exorcist Fang Xuan didn't know what the origin was, obviously the level was not bad, and he made the same judgment for the first time.

Song Yan just glanced up at the sky, his judgment was a little deeper than the two of them, this should be some kind of power blocking and absorbing the light, only a small amount of light beams penetrated in, it seemed like it was dark.

This ability, or the limit state of the spell, is probably to cause a field like "absolute blackness", which completely invalidates the visual ability of the entrant.

"It's not like it's a pure ghost, it's like someone is manipulating. Song Yan frowned slightly, but he didn't open his mouth to break it, nor did he directly put on the "Big Buddha" state to check.

To be honest, as soon as he entered the mansion, Song Yan realized that if the "Big Buddha" state was turned on, everything in the courtyard would be invisible and could be seen at a glance.

But if you do that, whatever is in the yard, you'll probably sense that peep and quickly flee.

Fighting grass and scaring snakes is not in line with the purpose of this trip, and Song Yan is here to help his senior brother, and he himself is not willing to be in the limelight, so he just stays by and watches.

Zhou Qingqing communicated with the two for a while, and both Monk Jinggen and Fang Xuan thought that this should be the hiding place for ghosts.

Instead of continuing to venture deeper, cast spells here and force the target to show up.

So Fang Xuan took the initiative to ask: "There is a method below that can make ghosts appear, and I have you to protect the Dharma for me." ”

Of course, Zhou Qingqing would not refuse, so Fang Xuan, surrounded by everyone, took out a talisman paper that had been prepared a long time ago, and took out a cinnabar pen to quickly sketch on it, and a blood-red pattern covered it.

After doing this, Fang Xuan bit the index finger of his right hand again, and used his own blood to awaken the talisman, and then threw it into the air: "Go!"

Song Yan frowned when he looked at it from behind: "Do exorcists do this like this? If there are ten or eight ghosts, will your fingers be enough?"

Monk Jinggen looked a little hesitant and said, "Blood catalysis can enhance the effect of the talisman, and it should be effective without catalysis, but it is a little weaker...... I don't know if the stored fresh blood vessels don't work. ”

"It doesn't work. Song Yan thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, wouldn't the female exorcist take advantage of it?"

"Huh?" said Comrade Jinggen, a twenty-year-old virgin, puzzled.

Zhou Qingqing in front obviously heard the muttering of the two, and finally couldn't help but turn his head when he heard this, and glared at Song Yan fiercely.

Song Yan just shrugged his shoulders and didn't say much, and the talisman thrown by Fang Xuan in front of him had already changed, only to see the talisman floating in the air, and a faint red light emanated.

"It's a traction charm that can reflect the soul of people, and ghosts are no exception. "Monk Jinggen is doing the commentary work dutifully.

As his words fell, the red light shone on every corner of the backyard, and in the thatched hut in front of him, a red phantom was illuminated.

It's just that this phantom is not humanoid, and it doesn't even have a fixed shape, but it is constantly changing up and down, like a piece of plasticine that has been kneaded repeatedly, without stopping for a moment.

"Sure enough, it's a ghost thing!" Fang Xuan in front of him looked a little solemn, and said in a deep voice, "The depth of the red light represents the strength of the soul, the strength of this ghost thing is not weak, everyone be careful!"

The people in the rear are actually within the influence of the traction charm, after all, this is not a game, the skills can also distinguish between the enemy and me, and their bodies are also illuminated with red light.

And when he looked up at this time, he saw that the red light color in the thatched house was much deeper than that of his own body, which meant that the soul power of the ghost was already stronger than that of ordinary people, and it was obviously not a newborn soul.

There is one exception, though......

The light on Song Yan's body was turning red and black, and if he looked at it from a distance, he would think that there was a bloody man standing here, and the Jinggen monk next to him couldn't help but reach out and pat him: "Senior brother, are you okay?"

"It's fine. Song Yan nodded firmly, and explained, "When the ancestor of Chensheng saw that the poor monk was dedicated to the Buddha, he gave the ancient Buddha relics to protect the poor monk...... Forget it, I'm having a showdown, in fact, I'm the reincarnation of the ancient Buddha, believe it or not. ”

"Oh......"

Monk Jinggen covered his face for a while, and although the rest of the people looked a little strange, it was not the time to care about this kind of thing now, so when Song Yan was serious, his eyes converged on the thatched house in front of him again.

The name of the traction charm is "traction", and of course it is not just a reflection. As a talisman specifically for spirit-like life, it has a rather strong traction effect on ghosts that have no material carrier.

After the ghost in the thatched house was reflected, it was obviously torn by a force, and it involuntarily converged towards the outside of the house, and red light began to flash in mid-air.

"It's coming!" Fang Xuan snorted softly, reminding everyone around him.

But in fact, she didn't need to remind him, Zhou Qingqing and the three subordinates had already taken the lead in rushing forward, standing around the red light phantom, pulling out a formation flag from his waist and inserting it into the ground.

Before the Shenhai Realm, Wu Xiu did not have a very good means of killing in the face of the spirit body, of course, the martial artist was vigorous, and it was difficult to be injured by the spirit body, and it belonged to the well water and did not violate the river water.

But it is impossible for the six doors to sit back and watch the spirits and ghosts hurt people, and if Wu Xiu wants to hurt the spirits, the most convenient thing is to use the magic circle, using the true qi as the power source, which can effectively kill or even capture the spirits alive.

What Zhou Qingqing and the four of them have placed now is the Soul Locking Array, which can effectively block the spirit body in it, isolate the inside and outside, and constantly wear down the power of the target.

Originally, it was a troublesome matter for them to lock the location of the ghost object, but with the help of Fang Xuan, an exorcist, it was indeed twice the result with half the effort, and it was no wonder that the Six Doors were willing to cooperate with the folk masters.

So I saw a red shadow scurrying back and forth in the formation, constantly hitting the outer wall of the formation, and was blocked back by the Soul Locking Array.

Unless Zhou Qingqing and the other four people ran out of internal breath, or the strength of this ghost thing exceeded the upper limit of the Locking Spirit Array, it had no possibility of escaping.

And the Pure Root Monk also stepped forward, reciting words in his mouth, which is the recitation of the Sutra of Death, which is also a compulsory scripture for disciples of the Great Light Temple, and has the effect of transcending the afterlife of all spirits.

The Sutra of the Pure Root Monk was obviously very proficient, and he spoke very quickly but still spoke clearly, and the sound of chanting was transmitted to the Lock Spirit Array, and the red phantom became more and more agitated, and even began to have a faint scream coming out of it.

It can be seen that this ghost thing is already a trapped beast, and Zhou Qingqing in front of him secretly breathed a sigh of relief, this trip was smoother than expected.

If nothing else, it is not difficult to capture the target alive, and it is indeed much more convenient than usual to have people from both Buddhism and Taoism at the same time.

"I can't even go over the Sutra of Afterlife, it's really a powerful ghost. Fang Xuan was still maintaining the effectiveness of the traction talisman, and seeing this scene, he couldn't help but say.

Seeing Song Yan standing still, she couldn't help but wonder: "This master, you ...... Don't you want to help?"

The monk's chanting is a "spell attack", which is completely stackable, and the effect of the two chanting together even has blessings.

"I won't. Song Yan shook his head honestly, he hadn't learned any Buddhism at all, let alone memorized the scriptures of his past lives, but his eyes fell to the ground, "And I have to help you solve another one." ”

"Another?" The girl exorcist couldn't help but be stunned, she looked up again, but she didn't find a new red shadow, and her heart was even more puzzled.

She still has confidence in her traction charm, unless it is beyond her big realm, it is basically impossible to avoid the influence of the traction charm and hide under her nose.

Song Yan didn't explain, just clenched his right hand into a fist and slammed it towards the ground.

Bang!

With a loud bang, the stone slab on the ground in the backyard began to crack inch by inch, like a huge spider web, falling on the backyard with Song Yan as the center.

The cracks on the ground made the array flags a little unstable, and the ghosts almost escaped from the lock spirit array, Zhou Qingqing and the other four couldn't help but turn their heads in amazement, not knowing what Song Yan was doing.

"Get out of the way!"

Song Yan snorted lightly, and before everyone had time to think about what he was referring to, they suddenly felt a burning under their feet, as if they were standing on the stove.

Fang Xuan couldn't help but look down, only to find that the fierce red light on the ground was flickering, and the entire backyard was already red, like hell.

The next moment, a hand suddenly reached out from the ground and grabbed her ankle.

"Ah!!h
