Chapter 234: The Ghost (I)

The old man told the story again, and the general process was:

Before the revival festival, the village has begun to celebrate, there are many large and small banquets, a strong man went to the good buddy's house to drink and chat, but he lost his voice after drinking, and said that he had an improper relationship with his buddy's daughter-in-law. The buddy was also half drunk, and after hearing this, he was furious, picked up a kitchen knife and was about to hack the strong man to death, but was killed by the strong man's backhand.

At that time, because it was night, the villagers only heard the noise in the house, and did not know what was happening. The next day, no one saw the shadow of this buddy, and his daughter-in-law said that he was called out to work early in the morning.

Because the recovery festival is approaching, many people who come to the city have gone home, and there is a certain degree of labor shortage in Thunder City, and the nearby villagers are willing to make some extra money at this time, so no one doubts it, and the strong man has an affair with his buddy's daughter-in-law, just because this buddy often goes to work.

As a result, several days passed, and the day before the recovery festival, he had not returned, and everyone became suspicious.

Then, in the afternoon of the same day, someone found the guy dead in a dry ditch on the way into the city. The dry ditch was originally used to irrigate the farmland, but there was no water in the autumn and winter, and weeds were grown, and the weeds withered, and no one took care of them.

It is said that the corpse was wearing dirty clothes, carrying a torn money bag in his arms, and a wound on his neck.

So, the people in the village immediately reported it to the militia, and when the militia saw it, they also concluded that it was a robbery, because it was close to the recovery festival, and the case was hastily closed, but they only issued a notice and did not bother to investigate.

There are only two husbands and wives in this buddy's family, the old man is dead, and there are no children, and the daughter-in-law buried her husband with the help of her mother's family and returned to her parents' house.

The strong man was very sad at the funeral, crying and screaming.

It took almost 10 days for the militia to launch an investigation, but it was no longer possible to verify it.

This incident passed, and the robbers were not found for a long time.

The strong man made a new plough for the family's spring ploughing, and it was ready, just when his buddy's daughter-in-law came back from her mother's house, she was ready to pack up and sell the things in the original house.

The strong man ran to help again, and that night ...... That night, the two died in the house, and before they died, they let out a miserable howl, which frightened many people.

The next day, the militia broke into the house and found that the two were sleeping together, and the village knew about the adultery between the two, and then suspected the cause of the buddy's death, but because there was no proof of death, although some villagers mentioned the quarrel on the night of drinking, the militia did not come to a conclusion.

The rest of the matter was mysterious, the room was unoccupied, but for several nights there was a sound of someone talking, which frightened the people who walked by the door at night. A drunken man accidentally broke in, and saw the ghost of the buddy, and the ghost kept saying that it was a strong man and his daughter-in-law who had murdered him.

As a result, the ghost and adultery spread completely, and not only the people in the village, but also the people in the nearby villages were spreading about it, and suddenly people were panicking.

The militia team went out again and sent people to investigate the house, but the ghost did not appear during the day, but pushed the two militiamen who were on vigil out of bed at night. The night vigil militia didn't plan to sleep, but he fell asleep unconsciously, and he didn't know anything about being pushed out of bed, and when he woke up, he said that he had the same dream - he dreamed that the killed buddy was slashed in the neck, and the blood kept flowing, and his eyes widened, and he took the militiaman's hand and said that he had died a miserable death......

The old village chief finally said: "Later, this matter was reported to the Bloodhoof Army, and the Bloodhoof Army said that only the Priests' House could solve it, but a probationary priest was sent, but it was also unresolved, and in the end, it alarmed you two ......."

"The standard folk ghost tale ......," Leo said, "reminds me of two magazines in the distant past, one called the Story Club and the other called the Legend of the Present and the Ancient, and of course, I don't read any bosom friends and after-dinner ......"

"Do you have an idea?" I asked him.

"What do you think?" Iru asked me too.

"Let's go and see, can't we?" Leo said, "As far as I know, the so-called ghosts can exist because the elemental energy of your world is too strong, and the power of the mind is not easy to dissipate. In the earth, it is estimated that people will dissipate as soon as they die, or they will be reincarnated, how can they stay in the world and make ghosts? ”

"Go and have a look in that room." I summarized the conversation and turned it on to Iru.

"Have you dealt with it before?" Iru asked me.

"I have seen an old man who died a normal death or a beast that was sacrificed, but I have never seen someone who was murdered and unjustly died." I say.

"I've seen quite a few." Iru said, "Actually, even if you are a probationary priest, you can be appeased by being familiar with the spell, and it seems that this one is a bit special. ”

"Let's go!" I stood up and said, "Let's see." ”

Iru stood up unhurriedly and said, "They all say that you are qualified to be a priest and you are not willing, so let you come!" ”

"Test me?" I say.

"I'm lazy," said Iru, "I knew I should go back to my hometown, even if I had nothing to do, it would be better to go around Sri than to stay in Thunder City and work overtime...... That's a lot this year! ”

"On the earth, it's called the Spring Festival labor shortage......," Leo said.

We walked out of the village chief's house and towards the ghost-infested house.

That buddy's house is close to the Magreli Hills, and the nearest neighbor is hundreds of paces away, so it's no wonder that no one notices anything wrong when they drink and kill people at night.

There was an iron chain around the door of the house, and a small amulet.

"It was left by the Priest-in-Command," explained the old chief, "and he said that with this, the ghost would not leave the house. ”

It was already dark, the militia was a little nervous, and some people from the village lit torches and sent them over.

Iru and I walked into the house, and no one else dared to come in.

I took a torch and told them to go farther, and everyone ran away as if they had been pardoned. He ran away......

"This old man, it's pretty ......fast," Leo said with a smile.

"It's up to you next." I say.

"It's up to you," said Iru, "if you can't, I'll go up again." ”

"Don't worry," I said, "I'm not going to hold on to it for the sake of face, and if I really can't resist it, I'll ask you to do it." ”

"Well, I haven't seen you for more than a month, and you've grown again." Iru nodded.

"I love that." I say.

"I think you've changed a lot from the first time we met," said Iru, "and you don't seem as hopeless as my brother." ”

"What's wrong with Bojie?" I say.

"It's nothing, it's still the same," said Iru, "and the only thing I'm glad about is that I wasn't sent to the border." ”

"That's good," I said...... "That's it, Ata...... This? ”

Iru suddenly looked directly at me, and the light of the torch was reflected in her eyes, and it was a bit dazzling......

"It's still ......the same as before," she said, "the young patriarch of Pamla hasn't come back for the recovery festival, it seems that the situation is a little tense, but it is understandable that the Young Warriors Conference is the top priority, the border confrontation will end sooner or later, and now is the most critical time, even if the wolf clan does not dare to really fight, they must make some gains...... However, the lord of the castle visited Atayal's parents on the day of the recovery festival, saying that he wanted to hear their opinions on the wedding date. ”

My heart suddenly rose again, and I asked, "What did they say?" ”

Iru looked at me meaningfully and said, "They say let the young people make their own decisions......"

I breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, the Young Warriors Conference, are you sure you want to go?" Iru asked.

"Of course!" I nodded.

"You're making fools again......," said Iru as if warning, "just boasting that you've grown." ”

"I know what I'm going to do." I say.

"Whatever you want," Iru said, "I just wanted to remind you to recognize your own strength. ”

"I know my strength," I said, "you're not afraid that I'll hurt you, are you?" ”

"!" Yilu was a little annoyed, "You men, this is not to make people worry, you are like this, my brother is like this, and so is the dead adulterer!" ”

"How can Bojie and I be like that adulterer?" I was also a little unhappy, "This is despicable, I am above board!" ”

"You can't help yourself!" Iru said, "Men, they're all so stupid! ”

"What did you say!" I'm also angry.

"I advise you not to do stupid things!" Yilu's fire also came up, "No matter how stupid my brother is, he knows that he doesn't have that qualification, and he is better than you in this regard!" ”

"What do you know!" I snorted, "It's my business to do what I want to do, don't worry if you don't get used to it, I'm not your brother!" ”

"Dumb idiot!" Iru couldn't help it, and finally burst into a foul mouth.

"Nosy kids!" I also wanted to scold, but I couldn't find a better word for a while.

"I'll see how you end!" Iru said, "Don't become the laughing stock of the entire orc clan then! ”

"Even if you become a laughing stock, it's none of your business!" I say.

"Hey!" Leo suddenly shouted, "Wake up! ”

"Ugh!" I asked in surprise, and then I felt a little dizzy.

Shaking my head, I was surprised to find that the torches I had brought from the militia had been extinguished, and the room was dark.

"Uh......-huh," Iru whispered, raising her hand, and an electric spark erupted from her hand, illuminating a small area where we were.

"On the right hand side!" Leo said with some excitement, "Ghost! ”

"Ahh I exclaimed, and without even thinking about it, I activated the Elemental Vision and Mind Power - against ghosts and nature spirits, ordinary weapons were almost useless, and the only useful ones were wrinkled amulets, totems, or direct mental power.

A bunch of humanoid points of light soon appeared in the field of vision.
