I bent down on the ground and began to burn paper, and the old man also began to act, picking up the wooden sword in his right hand and holding the emperor bell in his left hand, turning in a circle in the courtyard, and chanting words in his mouth, as if he was saying, "Vibrating the Dharma Bell, the gods and ghosts Xianqin, the Dharma Seal, the charm and evil perish...... and so on.

At first, the courtyard was peaceful, and there was nothing abnormal, but after reading for a while, a cold wind slowly rose in the courtyard, blowing paper money ashes everywhere, and I hurriedly grabbed the paper money in my hand, for fear that it would be swept away by the wind and ruin this ritual.

The demonic wind came very suddenly, and as soon as the sound blew, the fog that drifted through the village rolled and became thicker, as if it was coming towards our house.

And, around our house.

At this time, I heard whispers all around, all of which seemed to belong to the villagers, but I don't know if it was because of the wind or other reasons, but I couldn't make out what was being said when I listened closely.

The old man later said that when I was a child, I experienced the incident of a hundred ghosts surrounding the house, which was more dangerous than this, and there were many powerful ones at that time, outside my grandmother's yard, there were shadows in all directions.

And there were many ghosts, the voices of men, women and children, and the next morning, the muddy yellow mud around the door of our yard was full of footprints.

I was holding the paper money in one hand, and the other hand was still pressing and continuing to burn the paper, for fear of destroying the ritual, and the bonfire in the courtyard was swaying.

When I looked around, I vaguely saw a lot of black shadows reflected on the courtyard wall, like people.

The old man shouted for a while, as if to get up, the wind quieted down, and the courtyard seemed to calm down, and I thought that the next thing would be very smooth.

Unexpectedly, after a while, Zhong Bai pulled me down and said to me, "Don't burn it yet." ”

At this time, I looked up, thinking that it was done, but found that Zhong Bai's face was a little ugly, and turned to look at the old man behind me, his eyes were fixed on the incense of the gilded incense burner.

I looked along and found that in just a few minutes, the three sticks of incense in the incense burner were all over the place.

"What's wrong?"

Of course I felt something was wrong.

It happened so suddenly that I didn't have time to think about it, and I didn't quite understand that this was going to happen.

Zhong Bai shook his head, thought for a moment and said to me, "It stands to reason that this will not happen, these villagers in your village have all come here. ”

At that time, when I heard Zhong Bai's words, my back was cold.

Does that mean that the voices I heard outside at the beginning were all dead villagers?

"Why is this happening?" I asked.

As soon as I said this, I suddenly saw a black mass jump on the courtyard wall, and then let out a "meow" sound.

I turned my head to see the black cat with a bag around its neck jumping up to the courtyard wall, looking sideways at us.

Immediately, I understood.

But I reacted, and the old man reacted faster, and before I could speak, the peachwood sword directly turned into a sword light and slashed at the black cat.

This thing must be messing around.

But this black cat is not ordinary, although the old man reacted quickly, but did not chop the black cat to death, only heard a scream, the black cat jumped out of the courtyard wall.

The old man scolded in a low voice, "Young girl, it's really the first seven to catch up with the grave, but I met a real ghost." ”

The black cat disappeared behind the courtyard wall and disappeared without a trace.

"Someone has detained the souls of the villagers." Zhong Bai said, "In this case, you won't be able to send away the souls of these villagers." You can't resolve your grievances. ”
