Chapter 964: A Chance Encounter
In the quiet environment, when everyone could only hear the intense heartbeat and suppressed breathing, Song Qing Xiao Leng might as well speak, although the voice was not loud, it still made Aunt Wu, who was already a soldier, tremble heavily.
But after she finished trembling, she strangely found that her tense nerves were relaxed.
"Where, where is anyone?"
Aunt Wu raised her head a little dazedly, and her eyes circled around.
The surrounding area was cloudy, and dense water vapor floated in the air, forming an overwhelming dense fog that almost blocked the surrounding vision.
The human eye can see at most a few meters away, and further away it is gray, but some blue shadows can be faintly seen, perhaps buildings in the fog.
She tried her best to widen her eyes, but she didn't find the person Song Qingxiao said, but faintly caught the echo of a resentful female voice in her ears:
"Ghost ...... Ah......h
This echo frightened her neck, and cold sweat broke out again.
Although Daoist Song was also a little puzzled by Song Qingxiao's words, out of trust in the little apprentice, he did not speak, but released his divine sense to search around.
It's just that the ghost aura here is very strong, and the strong yin aura almost seals his five senses, and his divine sense doesn't play much role here, it's just much better than others.
After he let go of his divine sense, he did not sense the existence of a living person.
Just when the old Taoist priest wondered if Song Qingxiao suddenly said this evil spirit, several small and messy footsteps really penetrated into his sea of consciousness.
"Someone is really coming."
Song Daochang's spirits perked up, and as soon as his voice came out, he listened to it again:
"Like, there were several of them."
His prestige in the hearts of several people is different from Song Qingxiao, and after his affirmation, Aunt Wu and the others are naturally convinced, and immediately show joy.
"It would be nice if someone showed up, just in the right way."
Everyone walked in the thick fog for a while, and they were already flustered, and when they heard someone appear, they all stretched their necks to see:
"Dao Chief, where are you?"
As they spoke, everyone heard the footsteps of 'Sisuo', and they saw that there seemed to be a large cyan shadow moving in front of them.
The old man and the man were tightly squeezed behind Song Daochang and Song Changqing, while Aunt Wu was holding Song Qingxiao's arm tightly, her teeth clucking.
Although Daoist Song assured that someone was coming, the scene of seeing the shadow passing through the fog and moving with the thick fog still scared several people.
After about two or three minutes, the shadows were closer, and the footsteps were heavier, mixed with messy gasps of 'whoosh, whoosh'.
In this way, everyone was sure that it should be a human being.
A few people were overjoyed and took the initiative to meet them, but the people on the other side heard the footsteps of several people and stood still.
For a while, the sound of breathing was also held, and all I could hear was the rapid heartbeat of 'Woo Woo'.
After a long time, someone on the other side trembled:
"On the other side, it's a person or a ......?"
When the old man who was driving the car heard this voice, he seemed to vaguely feel a little familiar, and without waiting for Song Daochang to speak, he opened his mouth and said:
"Is the elder brother of the Zeng family on the other side?"
Song Qingxiao had already recognized the identity of this group of people from the other party's breath, but he didn't say anything.
"Are you Brother Liu?"
When the two men called each other, it was as if they recognized each other at once.
On the other end of the fog turned out to be the group of people who parted ways with everyone during the siege of the weasel pack.
It's just that at that time, they insisted on refusing to walk with everyone anymore, and finally broke up unhappily because of repeated entanglements, but they didn't expect to meet here, which was really evil!
However, unlike the happy tone of the old man driving the car, even if the person on the other side recognized the acquaintance, not only did he not feel close, but he seemed to have encountered something frightening.
I heard a woman scream in a high voice:
"What the hellβ"
Then, in the mist, the group turned around and ran away without saying a word.
"Run for what?"
The old man who was driving the car was a little stunned, and couldn't help but glance at Song Daochang, with a puzzled look on his face.
"They probably encountered a ghost hitting the wall, and they encountered something evil."
The old Taoist priest knew a lot about demonic methods, and after saying this at this time, the old man in the car couldn't help but tremble.
"Changqing, catch them up, let them stop and talk!" The old Taoist priest commanded.
This place is very yin, it is very likely that there are ghosts mixed with it, they are frightened at this time, each of them is running around like a fly without a head, once they encounter a ghost, I am afraid that their lives will be confessed here.
Song Changqing answered, grabbed the package, and rushed into the thick fog.
Several people followed, and they all chased in the direction of the few people who had fled earlier.
It's just that these people don't know what kind of fright they have been subjected to before, and they are running extremely fast at this time, and the yin qi in the fog is heavy, as if they are deliberately blocked, and they only chase a few steps, and the group actually chased them completely.
Not only did the group of separated people disappear without a trace in the mist, but even Song Changqing, who had been sent out by Daochang Song to find someone before, disappeared.
Now everyone didn't dare to run around anymore, for fear that a few people would get lost again.
In desperation, the old Taoist priest spoke:
"We must not be separated hand in hand."
Everyone moved in response, Aunt Wu took Song Qingxiao's hand, the other side grabbed the old man who was driving the car, and the old man who was driving the car grabbed another man, Song Daochang walked on Song Qingxiao's side, paying attention to the surrounding actions at any time.
Several people slowly moved forward, and after about seven or eight minutes of walking, the fog began to change again.
Song Qingxiao's pupils shrank, and then he heard the sound of running 'dong dong' coming from the fog, mixed with the sound of wheezing.
She pursed her lips, and felt that Aunt Wu squeezed her hand heavily, as if she was a little surprised:
"Someone's coming."
As if hearing her voice, the person opposite panicked:
"Yes, is it Aunt Wu?"
"Dao Chief, it's Changqing's voice."
The person who spoke was Song Changqing, who had left earlier, and he seemed to recognize Aunt Wu and strode over here.
I saw several green shadows appear in the fog, led by Song Changqing, and the few people who got off the bus halfway followed him with uneasy expressions.
"Master."
His face was pale, his hands were empty, and the bag on his back didn't know where it had been thrown, and the moment he saw Song Daochang, he seemed to be a little happy and took a step forward.
"You found them?"
As soon as the old man in the car saw that everyone had gathered, he immediately seemed to let go of his hand and stepped forward to greet everyone.
"Wait!"
At this time, the old Taoist priest suddenly let out a loud shout!
His eyebrows were upside down, a cold light appeared in his eyes, and his whole person was like an angry god, and he took a step in front of the few people in a row.
The old man and the others who drove the car were also people who had experienced several twists and turns, and when they saw the old Taoist's expression, they knew that something was wrong.
Thinking of what might have happened to the group of fleeing people he had mentioned earlier, the old man's smile froze, and he grabbed the hands of the people around him with a winch, and retreated back into the group, not daring to speak again.
"Master......"
When Song Changqing heard him scold, he seemed to be a little overwhelmed, called him, took a step forward, as if he still wanted to explain something, and then listened to the old Taoist priest shouting:
"Stand there and don't move."
"Immortal Chief, you let us come over."
The few people who followed behind Song Changqing cried with sad faces, and scrambled to say:
"There are ghosts in this fog......"
"We met you before, but fortunately, the elder brother of the Zeng family found out that something was wrong, so he didn't get killed by the ghosts."
"yes, that's why we turn around and run when we meet you." The woman said in a shrill voice:
"Fortunately, Brother Song caught up and explained to us clearly, so that we will come back to look for you."
When several people said this, they all wanted to lean over:
"Dao Chief, help."
"Stand there and don't move." The old Taoist priest warned again.
As soon as his voice fell, his hand had already reached into the pocket on his waist, and he made a gesture to touch the talisman paper to attack.
Seeing that his tone was rigid and his attitude was very resolute, several people did not dare to say anything more.
"Master, I'm evergreen......"
Song Changqing really didn't dare to move anymore, but he still said in his mouth: "What's wrong with you?" β
"Humph!" The old Taoist snorted coldly, unmoved, and glanced at him with a calm look in his eyes:
"Where's your package?"
"Package?" That Song Changqing originally thought that he wanted to prove his identity, but he didn't expect him to open his mouth to say such a sentence, and he was immediately a little stunned, and quickly reacted in the end:
"I was in a hurry to chase people, so I ran two steps and ......"
"Nonsense!" Before he finished speaking, he heard Song Dao shouting:
"There's a small thing in that bag, and you can't just throw it away." When he said this, he was very annoyed:
"What kind of ghost are you, dare to pretend to be my apprentice!"
"Master, you have been wronged." When Song Changqing heard this, he shouted loudly:
"Of course I know that the bag contains the little sister's things, but I just put it down first and pick it up later......"
"Shut up!"
The old Taoist priest shouted again: "What nonsense! β
When the few people on the other side heard his words, they all seemed to be very frightened, and immediately took two steps back, away from Song Changqing, as if they wanted to go to everyone's side:
"He, isn't he man? The Taoist saves me. β
"Stand still!"
Seeing that these people really stood still, the old Taoist priest sneered again:
"Sure enough, there are ghosts."
As soon as he finished saying this, those people seemed to want to explain, but they heard the old Taoist priest say:
"Those people have a tricky personality, and they are the most nonsense, how can they be so obedient, I say stop and stop."
When the weasel pack was besieging, the group purged Song Daochang to ask him to escort him, but after he refused, he was still unwilling to give up and obsessed.
If it weren't for Song Changqing's heavy face at that time, Song Daochang would not have been able to get out easily for a while.
But as soon as these people in front of them were reprimanded, they stood still, and there was really a lot to do.
When Aunt Wu and the others heard this, they all felt scared and overwhelmed.
The person on the other side was stunned for a moment, and then quibbled:
"Daoist, please listen to our explanation, we also know that the previous obsession was wrong and disgusted you, so we ......"
"Rhetoric!" The old Taoist priest had a calm face and interrupted their words:
"It's a lot of nonsense."
"The Taoist chief has been wronged." The woman shouted injustice repeatedly, and a man beside her saw that he looked cold, looking extremely unkind, and couldn't help but turn to Aunt Wu and the old man who drove the car and others:
"Sister-in-law of the Wu family, you can help me talk about it."
"Brother Liu, you took my money, and we were kicked out of your car halfway."
"Everyone is a folk, how can we be a liar?"
"This place is eerie, it's safer for everyone to go on the road together, and we're just helpless and want to save our lives."
"If we don't have the support of the Dao Leader, we may be captured by the fierce ghosts in the fog."
"Brother Liu, our village is next to each other, your eldest grandson has just prepared Shu Xiu and is ready to enter school, and his son is an apprentice in a shop in the county......"
The person who spoke seemed to be very familiar with the situation in the old man's house, and said that his situation was not bad, not like it was fake.
"Dao Chief, look ......"
The old man who was driving the car was suspicious, he felt a little scared, but he was also confused by what these people said, and he was afraid that they were really villagers, but he was forcibly driven away by the old Taoist.
"They're not those people."
Seeing that Aunt Wu and the others were all flustered, the old Taoist priest shook his head:
"If you don't reach the Yellow River, you won't die."
He sank his face and said, "I can be you, since you all said that you paid the money to get in the car, I can do it, how much money did you pay in total?" β
"Nine big gold dollars." When the woman heard him say this, she replied with a bow in her chest.
As soon as she finished speaking, the face of the old man, who had been a little nervous before, turned pale, and he took a step back and stopped talking.
When he was on the ox cart, after expelling the obstacle set by the Yin Spirit, Song Daochang asked him to hand over the purse containing the money.
The purse contained a total of eight gold dollars from the golden Wansheng period, plus the one he thought he had taken out to pay for his grandson's schooling, wasn't it a total of nine?
The few people in front of you are indeed not people!
"Humph! Sure enough, the horse's feet were exposed! β
The old Taoist priest sneered, and as he spoke, he took out a spirit rune from his waist, and shouted in his mouth:
"The Emperor of the Quartet, show his magical powers! Curse the evil! β
The rune paper turned into golden light and slashed towards Song Changqing and the others.
The light forced the fog away, and the crowd that had been pleading, eager, or panicked suddenly became cold and silent.
'Song Changqing''s face quickly turned pale, his eyes became cold, and the moment he saw Fu Guang slashing, he first panicked, and then 'hey, hey, hey' began to be cold.
'Boom! β
The light and shadow slashed down in the direction where he stood, and his figure froze for a moment, and then shattered like a shadow in a mirror.
"You can't escape."
"You can't escape......"
"Hey, hey, hey, hey...... I can't escape the ......"
These people, who were still begging for an explanation, let out a sneer from their mouths, and then their figures were broken one after another under the power of the spell, and the 'Woo Yao' turned into a blue and black qi and dissipated all around.
A scorching stench spread, and the previous group of people instantly disappeared into invisibility.
'Knock knock knock-'
Aunt Wu and the others, who witnessed the appearance of ghosts, were so frightened that they felt that their legs were as soft as two pieces of cotton, and they couldn't move anymore.
It was like a rabbit in its chest, and it was jumping so hard that it was 'clicking.' β
A few more messy footsteps came.
