I wanted to squint for a while, but accidentally, I fell asleep. When Zhang Yufen woke up, the car stopped at the door of Li's house.

When we went in, we saw that the old lady was also there, and Xue Chen accompanied her.

"Where's the wood, please come back!" Zhang Yufen asked anxiously.

"It's coming, it's coming!" A middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes led the way, and two people behind him carried a box with a yellow cloth on it. The man walked up to Zhang Yufen with an expression of invitation: "Sister-in-law, I spent a lot of money to let Boss Wang cut my love!" ”

"Got it!" Zhang Yufen responded impatiently, walked up to the old lady and asked, "Ancestor, can you show me?" ”

Xue Chen helped the old lady get up from the sofa and walked towards the box. The man standing next to the box immediately lifted the fabric and opened the box.

"Hmm!" The old lady nodded and looked at me, "It's time to begin!" ”

I walked over and glanced at the box: Wow, that's a big piece!

The wood in the box weighed about a dozen pounds, charred and blackened, and the split side had a red curve drawn, which didn't look like a rune.

"Lao Zhang, go find a saw and split the wood!"

"Wait a minute!" The old lady stopped it with a loud voice, "This thing can't be split, it can only be burned whole!" Carry them out into the open space and take them out! ”

"Hey!" Zhang Yufen answered and ordered: "Quickly, move everything to the backyard and push the old man out." ”

"Old lady......" I suddenly had some doubts, walked over to help her, and whispered, "How do I feel that this wood is a little different from the master's!" ”

The old lady glanced at me with a look of approval: "Be careful for a while!" ”

The backyard of the Li family is a lawn, and there is a swimming pool on the side, although the area is not large, but it is enough to make us small people who live in snails envious, jealous and hateful. After waiting for a while, three comatose people in hospital gowns and in wheelchairs were pushed out.

The old lady asked to clear the scene, and the irrelevant people went into the house to wait, and in the backyard, including the unconscious people, only nine people remained: Zhang Yufen and Uncle Zhang, me and Xiaoxue, and the old lady was supported by Xue Chen. Originally, Zhang Yufen wanted Li Hao to stay, but he was naturally unhappy, glanced at Xiaoxue, and left in a huff.

Lao Zhang took out the "thunder wood" from the box, took a bottle of vegetable oil according to the old lady's instructions, and poured half of it into the wood. After the fire ignited, I took the jewelry box, walked over and poured out the wrench. The already scarlet wrench, falling into the fire, looked more and more vivid, and the blood could be clearly seen flowing in the firelight.

The flames jumped as wildly as they could, and the vegetable oil on the surface quickly burned out, and the wood began to burn on its own. After a crackling sound, the fire did not intensify, but began to weaken. I was shocked, and Lao Zhang on the side also picked up the vegetable oil and was about to pour it - "No! The old lady stopped with a loud voice.

I looked at the old lady and said, "If this continues, the fire will be extinguished......

"Ghost Fire!" Xiaoxue exclaimed. I hurriedly looked back and found that the color of the flames had turned blood-red.

"Ahh

At this time, the three people in the wheelchair also woke up, their bodies convulsing, their faces contorted, and they cried out in pain.

Zhenwei ...... Dad ...... "Zhang Yufen stayed by their side, trying her best to appease them, but she didn't have the skills. At this time, Li Zhenwei suddenly struggled to stand up, and then fell to the ground and cried bitterly**, scratching his body with both hands. Xue Chen stepped forward to help hold him, and at the same time, Xiaoxue also tried hard to hold her father's arms, but her strength was too small, and the strange uncle's face had already scratched several blood marks by herself.

At this moment, Lao Zhang kicked the fire hard, he actually wanted to extinguish the fire! I looked at the old lady for help, only to see the old lady squinting her eyes with a worried face, but she had no intention of stopping her. Soon, the fire was extinguished by Lao Zhang, and the three gradually settled down.

"Old Ancestor ......" Zhang Yufen fell to the ground in collapse and cried bitterly.

"This ...... What's going on? ”

The old lady did not answer, but sighed. I looked at the wrench in the fire unharmed, and suddenly realized that the wrench had sucked their souls and burned them in the fire, wouldn't that be burning their souls as well? Oh my God, what the hell is to be done?

I crouched down and stared at the still bright red wrench on the charred wood, the flowing colors of which seemed to be a demonstration at the moment. I suddenly became very angry, and this feeling was very unpleasant!

Xue Chen came over and squatted beside me, looked at me and said, "Do you want to fight?" ”

"Sort of!" I hung my head and said, "If only I could force the soul out first!" ”

"There's no need to ruin it if you could, do you?"

I turned my head and glared at the man in front of me, speechless - but things had come to this point, and I couldn't stop halfway! My mind is very chaotic, and I know that the more chaotic it is, the more bad it is, but who can easily control my emotions!

"Storing the power of thunder and lightning, locust wood is better, cinnabar sealing, spiritual blood sealing, three strategies for holding branches, and dispelling it" - this is a note on "thunder wood" in the codex, I still can't figure out the meaning of the next three sentences, I pondered for a long time, and vaguely remembered another note - "All blood belongs to relatives, and the bones are bound with blood, for fear that it will be broken" I said in pieces.

"What's wrong?" Xue Chen asked.

I got up and walked over to the old lady and asked in a low voice, "Can the 'Soul Bundle' be used on that wrench?" ”

The old lady frowned: "Okay, old woman try!" She turned her head to look at Zhang Yufen, "Yufen, I need a jar of blood!" ”

Lao Zhang walked over and helped Zhang Yufen up, and she said with a blank face: "I'm going to draw blood!" ”

"Wait!" The old lady said solemnly: "I need your Li Hao, and this girl's blood!" ”

According to the Codex, "Soul Binding" is a method of protecting the soul - when the soul is damaged and broken, the blood of a loved one can be used to soak into the bones of the soul and help it. It can forcibly imprison the scattered souls and spirits on its bones to delay time. But this method has drawbacks, first, it can't really save the soul, and second, the dearest people will be greatly damaged.

But at this moment, I am more puzzled about "binding bones with blood", these three people are still alive, can this method work?

The old lady took out two small bamboo jars of about five centimeters from the cloth bag she brought and handed them to Zhang Yufen. Fortunately, the Zhang family had hired medical staff to take care of the patients at home, and it was convenient to draw blood. Xiaoxue took the bamboo pot back to the backyard first, but there was an argument between Li Hao and Zhang Yufen in the house.

Xiaoxue hesitated, turned around and entered the house again, and after a while, Zhang Yufen dragged Li Hao back to the backyard and returned the bamboo jar in her hand to the old lady.
