Chapter 37: Terrible screams
Walking into the thatched hut, I gently pushed open the door, and I was greeted by a fishy and musty smell. Looking up, the inside of the hut was very simple, with only an old wooden bed and a broken bowl.
There was a person lying quietly on the wooden bed, and that person was crawling with all kinds of residual insects and fleas, and his whole body exuded a pungent stench. All of us couldn't help but gasp.
We all know that this person who is lying on the bed and smelling all over his body is, of course, Zhong Daring, who is known as the Heavenly Master. He lay on his back on the plank bed as if he were "paralyzed", unable to move.
The more we walked inside, the closer we got to Zhong Tianshi, the more obvious the fishy and musty smell became. At this time, when I arrived in front of Zhong Tianshi, except for Granny Qin, everyone else and I couldn't help but stretch out our hands to cover our noses, because the smell was really disgusting.
As soon as Granny Qin approached Zhong Daring, she couldn't help but touch his body with her hands, she was crying with tears, shaking Zhong Daring's body desperately with both hands, she shook it and said with a cry: "Senior Brother Zhong, Senior Brother Zhong, how did you become like this, you get up quickly!" Hurry up and sue me, how the hell did you get hurt like that ghost? ”
But Zhong Daring, who was lying on the wooden bed, still didn't move, and he didn't even blink his eyes, and at that moment I felt that he was a vegetative person at all.
Just as Granny Qin kept shaking Celestial Master Zhong's body, the old lady suddenly spoke: "Genxiang, you don't have to shake it anymore, I have already tried all kinds of methods." It's useless, he doesn't know anything at all, he's become a living dead without any consciousness. ”
I heard her say this, and nodded very agreeably, but Granny Qin was very unwilling, she completely ignored the words of the old lady, and continued to shake Zhong Tianshi's body desperately.
Faced with Granny Qin's useless actions, I couldn't help but shake my head and sigh.
At that moment, I suddenly heard a terrible scream, which came from outside the thatched hut. It's eerie and terrifying, as if you've encountered an extremely terrifying demon. Naturally, in the face of this sudden scream, I thought about running outside, wanting to check it out.
But as soon as I turned around, Xing Yongfu suddenly grabbed my arm, and he walked up to me in a panic, and said in a trembling voice: "Ten million...... Don't go out, or you'll ...... Otherwise, your life will not be saved, the scream just now must have been done by a bad ghost, you can't go out, as soon as you go out, he will suck your yang energy. ”
When I heard him say this, my hairs stood on end, and I involuntarily took a big step backwards. My throat was dry, I trembled slightly, and asked softly, "Why are you so sure that this scream is from that terrible ghost?" ”
Xing Yongfu was short of breath and said, "A few nights ago, when an old servant of our family went out to check the sound of this scream, we found through the crack in the door that he had been sucked out of his yang energy by that powerful ghost. At that time, when he died, there was not even a trace of blood on his face, and his face was whiter than the white lime on the wall. Isn't he being sucked with yang energy......"
I paused and said, "If it's really a ghost who did it, then what's the use of us hiding here, isn't she the same as she can come in and suck our yang energy?" ”
Xing Yongfu shook his head and said, "No...... We're not hiding in there like going outside. ”
I was stunned and asked curiously, "How is it different?" ”
Xing Yongfu pointed to the closed wooden door of the thatched hut and said, "Take a closer look at what is pasted on the door of this thatched hut. ”
As soon as I heard him say this, I immediately looked at the door. On the door of the hut, I saw dozens of ghostly golden charms, and they seemed to have an indescribable animal smell on them.
I looked at Xing Yongfu, hoping that he would tell me what kind of reputation there is.
Xing Yongfu smiled bitterly: "These charms were found from Zhong Tianshi, Yongcai and I found Zhong Tianshi next to my grandfather's grave that day, he had become what he is now, half-dead, but we found that he had these charms and the key to the underworld on his body. ”
I took a deep breath and said, "He has a charm and a key on him?" Doesn't that mean that the demon has come to find the key to the gate of Hades? ”
Xing Yongfu nodded heavily and said, "Later, we arranged Zhong Tianshi here, and we knew that as a Heavenly Master, these talismans must be of great use, so we pasted it on the door of the house and on this thatched hut in batches. ”
"We didn't have much hope for these charms at first, but it wasn't until two days ago that we realized they were lifesavers. That night, after Yongcai and the old servant had arranged for the Celestial Master to live here, I was just about to leave when I suddenly heard a miserable wail coming from outside the hut, and the sound was exactly the same as what you had just heard. Yongcai and I were both scared and didn't dare to go out. So we asked the old servant to go out and check it out, but no sooner had he gone out, and we hid outside the crack in the door and saw the white-clothed ghost clearly, and we saw that she was sucking the old servant's yang energy, and then the old servant became a dead man. We were so frightened that our legs trembled, and we immediately closed the wooden door of the hut, we knew that the ghost would definitely come in and suck our yang energy, but we were surprised to find that when she first walked into the hut, the charm on the hut suddenly flashed a burst of strong yellow golden light, and the golden light surrounded the ghost, and then we heard her let out a scream, then we knew that the ghost originally came in from the beginning to suck the yang energy of all of us, but she didn't expect that there would be a spell of Zhong Tianshi on the thatched house, The spell stopped her. She couldn't come in, she could only deliberately lead us out on our own. So I advise you never to leave the hut, and to wait until the day when the sun is at its highest. If you don't listen to my advice and go out now, I can guarantee you that you will become a dead man like my old servant. ”
When I heard Xing Yongfu say this, I couldn't help but have cold sweat on my forehead, and I really didn't know what to do for a while.
Just as I hesitated and hesitated, the screams outside rang out again.
I was a very curious person, and I couldn't help but take a step towards the closed wooden door of the hut.
Seeing that I didn't listen to his advice, Xing Yongfu immediately rushed to me and scolded: "You really don't want to die? Good...... Well, if you want to die, we can't do it...... Go, go. ”
At this time, Granny Qin saw that I was going out, she also walked to me, she suddenly took out a golden charm from her body, and then patted me on the shoulder, and said: "Child, I know your character, you must want to go out and have a look, I don't want to stop you, come, you take this charm, this charm is a talisman given to me by my master back then, I have never used it, I hope it can help you......"
I took the charm and held it tightly in my palm.
At this moment, the old lady saw that I had a charm in my hand, and was about to go out to meet the ghost, she couldn't help but walk up to me, her expression was very excited, she held my hand tightly, and said to me: "If you go out and see that ghost in a while, you must remember to ask her to return my treasure to me, that treasure is very important to me." ”
I was noncommittal and ignored her. He turned to look at Granny Qin. I saw Granny Qin's sad face, she was still looking at Zhong Tianshi on the wooden bed.
I shook my head and decided to leave her alone for a while.
I took a deep breath, then opened a small slit in the wooden door and cautiously slipped through it
