Chapter 14: Gathering Souls
"Yes," the uncle nodded, then approached me, and whispered in front of me: "Two days ago, there were two policemen, but nothing was found, the person was still missing, and there was a lot of trouble here at night...... It's not peaceful. β
"I'd like to go inside, okay?" I looked at the uncle.
"Girl, it's not that I won't let you go, here, it's better not to go." Uncle looked at me a little nervously.
"Why?" I asked.
"It's even messier inside, it's not cleaned up yet, and those brackets or something, it's not strong, in case it ......" The uncle pointed to the inside and told me loudly.
I smiled and patted him on the nervous shoulder: "Don't worry, it's okay." β
When he was stunned, I had already walked in, and it was really messy as the uncle said, and the tripod on it also made a "squeak" sound, and when I heard it, I knew that it was not fastened properly, and it could fall down at any time.
I took out the compass in my hand, and the pointer on the compass had already begun to spin, but in the end, it pointed due south, that is, directly in front of me, and the corners of my mouth lifted slightly, and I strode forward.
As soon as I took a few steps, there was a loud noise behind me, my body flashed quickly, and suddenly a large piece of dust was raised, and I couldn't see things clearly, and when the gray smoke cleared, I saw that I was standing in the same position, there was a very large stone, I couldn't help but look up at it, there were a few steel bars shaking there, and I was sharp-eyed, as if I saw a figure flashing, very quickly, but still let me catch the corner of his clothes.
Now I'm really scared, what would it be like if it fell on me? I don't dare to think about it.
I shook my head, looked at the compass again, and then cheered up and continued walking, this time I walked a little carefully, and kept looking up at the situation in the building.
When I walked out of the small building, I saw an open space, and I was stunned by what I saw.
Soul Gathering Array!
If this was originally a funeral home, then who would build such a formation here, and for what purpose?
Looking at this formation, it doesn't look like it was built by modern people, because some things are already very ancient, and I didn't go any further, just stood outside the formation and observed carefully.
Right here, there was a sound of footsteps behind me, and I immediately turned around and saw the statement and Zhao Cangran walking over.
I frowned when they held their hard hats in their hands, and when the two of them got closer, I pointed to the hard hats in their hands: "Why don't you put them on?" β
"It's useless." Zhao Cangran was the first to answer.
"Where, I don't know? Useless? "I choked him angrily.
Zhao Cangran pursed his lips and buckled the hat in his hand on his head.
The statement also put on the hard hat, and I didn't look at them again, just turned around and looked at the formation again.
"Damn, who made it out, Soul Gathering Array, what do you want to do." Zhao Cangran also walked over and whispered in surprise after a glance.
"I don't know." I answered, put away the compass, and tried to take off the rope.
"Don't move." My hand was pressed by the statement: "Now is not the time. β
"Those two people, right inside, were trapped." I looked up at him.
"I know, come at night, there are no weapons now, besides, if there is a war now, it will inevitably alarm those people outside, and it will not end well." The statement looked at me earnestly.
"Yes, he's right, Susu, wait for the evening." Zhao Cangran rarely agrees with other people's words, he has always been the master of unreasonable stirring up three points, what's wrong today.
I glanced at him curiously, then turned to look at the statement, and I knew that his mana must be above mine: "Night is when they are the strongest, are you sure?" β
"As long as the formation is broken, it may not be strong." The statement looked into the distance and raised the corners of his mouth with confidence.
I breathed a sigh of relief, looked around again, and jumped on the top of the building behind me on tiptoe.
Standing on the roof of the building, I carefully followed the trend of the formation, drew a rough diagram in my mind, and while depicting it, the more surprised Cheng dΓΉ became, and finally I was shocked into a cold sweat.
The person who laid out this formation must not be an ordinary mage, it is too yin, not to mention the peculiar technique, the formation is so powerful that I have never encountered it, looking at the constantly surging ghost energy in the array, you can know that the ghosts gathered here, there are not five hundred, but also three hundred, what are so many ghosts for, and what will be under this array?
After drawing the trend chart of the formation in my mind, I looked at it for a while before jumping down and nodding to them: "Go back." β
When I passed by the place where the stone fell again, I couldn't help but look up, and my heart flashed, and my mind was much clearer.
The three of us walked out of the small building together, and when I passed by my uncle, I returned the helmet to him and patted him on the shoulder: "Uncle, what time do you get off work at night?" β
"It's getting dark now, so it must be around 7 o'clock." Uncle took the hat and smiled at me.
"Thank you, goodbye." I laughed and left.
After walking a few steps, Zhao Cangran followed, stabbed my hand on the shoulder twice, and asked in a low voice, "Su Su, why did you use rune paper on him?" What happened to him? β
"Don't sue me, you didn't see it." I gave him a faint look.
He immediately touched his nose and smirked twice: "I thought you didn't see it, this old man is not normal." β
"If you can appear here during the day, you should not know that you are dead, this is called a yang corpse, just because you don't know that you are dead, and you are still working as usual as usual, once you know it, it is likely that the corpse will change and become a demon." The statement said calmly.
"So, you can't let him be a corpse." I also smiled indifferently, and the statement was a very good teacher, and the explanation was very clear.
"Oh...... Su Su, your rune paper is used to suppress corpses, right? Zhao Cangran followed me, in the form of a small follower.
"Yes." As I answered, I grabbed him and looked at him seriously: "The surname is Zhao, tonight's action, you are small, you can't participate, understand?" β
"Ah, of course, I can't let him come, but he's a stubborn donkey, and I don't know how to convince him." Zhao Cangran's handsome face fell.
"No matter what method you use, he can't appear here anyway, once the formation is broken, there are not a few ghosts here, who will save him then?" I grimaced.
"I know, but he ......" Zhao Cangran looked at me in embarrassment.
"You can think of it yourself, and the two people in it, whether they live or die, are all at that price, and they can't be changed." I pressed close to his face.
Zhao Cangran swallowed, pulled his head away from me, and nodded.
I let go of my hand with satisfaction, slapped it twice, and glanced at him with disgust: "You have to do your best at night, and I won't help you collect the body then." β
"Susu, can't you say something nice to make me feel relieved? Curse me to death, will you be fine? Zhao Cangran wailed in a low voice beside me.
I ignored him and walked to the gate.
When I walked to the gate, I was fascinated by the promotional image of the construction site, so I stopped, stepped forward, and took a closer look.
Just when I was a little frightened, the voice of the statement appeared beside me: "Gathering Sun Array." β
