The ghost is scary enough, and adding a strong word in front adds a bit of horror.

I shuddered at the look of the terrible ghost from last night in my mind, and then told Lilac everything that happened last night in 'A Piece of Paper'.

Lilac sat on the chaise longue and listened, looking out the door from time to time, looking at the two paper figures.

After listening, he nodded and said: "Your life is really big, listening to your description, it must be a terrible ghost, and it is the kind of person who is extremely resentful." But he definitely didn't expect to have a soul bell and a guardian door god to protect you, and as a result, he was beaten by the virgin's god offering tower. ”

I listened to Lilac's words, and I remembered it again, and I was afraid. At the same time, I'm also a little curious, how did Lilac know that a ghost came to me last night?

Hearing my question, Lilac's face appeared with that slightly smug expression again: "What's this?" Now you haven't opened your eyes, you can't see Qi, and when you can see Qi, it's nothing. ”

"Qi?"

"You really don't understand anything, I'll explain it to you later." Lilac stood up, pulled me to the door, pointed to the boy and the girl, and said, "My master must have filled the door god guards with Qi before leaving, but I can see that a lot of Qi on their bodies has been consumed, and they must have been revived last night. ”

"So... What if the Qi of the Door God Guardian runs out? "I didn't know there was anything else going on, so I hurriedly asked.

Lilac looked at me like an idiot, and said as a matter of course: "Of course, it will turn back into an ordinary paper figure, so you don't need to ask?" Qi is the source of all arts, and it is also the root of all laws, and they move because Qi supports them. It's like people can only move if they have qi, can they still live without qi? ”

What Lilac said was not difficult to understand, and I could understand it, and at the same time shivered with excitement. Doesn't that mean that after these two paper figures run out of qi, if there are evil ghosts coming to the store, I will really become a fish on the board?

"Damn! I can't stay in this shop! "My scalp was numb, but then I was deflated again, Sun Hong hasn't come back yet, and there is another evil ghost waiting to ask for his life, if I don't stay in the store, I may die faster!

"What are you afraid of? Am I not here? Seeing my panicked appearance, Lilac glanced at me and snorted a little unhappily, "It's really useless..."

Suddenly, her delicate nose pouted, and she looked around as if she smelled something.

Eventually, her eyes fell on a pile of dried aquatic plants by the door.

I watched her walk out of the threshold, crouch down by the door, reach out and play with the dry, black lump, and whispered, "Snapdragon?" ”

"Senior sister, what are you doing?" I yelled at her, but Lilac ignored me, frowned, fiddled with the snapdragon for a while, and pulled out a black piece of paper.

"Spiritualism!" Lilac exclaimed, a hint of surprise on her pretty face.

She stood up suddenly, glanced at the surrounding streets with a solemn face, and said softly, "Fortunately." ”

Before I could understand what she was doing, she came back with the black piece of paper in her hand.

"Follow me." Lilac's expression was solemn, which made me a little nervous, and I hurriedly followed her to open the curtain to the back hall, and asked as she walked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I judged it wrong, junior brother, it's not an evil ghost who wants to harm you, I'm afraid it's a wicked person." Lilac said as she found the strips and colored paper, and then sat me down at the table, and quickly folded a dozen little figures out of the paper.

"Wicked? How can anyone want to harm me? "I can't be calm when I hear it, it's bad enough to have a ghost trying to harm me, why are there still wicked people who want to harm me?

"Don't ask so much first, come on, cut the tip of your index finger." Lilac lined up the twelve paper figures in front of me and handed me a sharp knife.

As soon as I saw this knife, I subconsciously thought of what my third uncle had asked me to do before, and asked, "This is... Want me to drip blood? ”

Lilac looked at me with some surprise, obviously she regarded me as a complete layman, and said in surprise: "You know quite well, did your uncle teach you?" ”

I rolled my eyes, Sun Hong's dead old man hadn't told me anything at all! You dead old man, if you want me to see the ghost shop, at least teach me a few skills to catch ghosts!

Angry is angry, I still vaguely told Lilac what the third uncle did when I was a child.

Lilac nodded again and again after hearing this, and said, "Cinnabar has blood, and it is a substitute for the spirit." Your third uncle seems to be a capable person, and the use of puppet stand-in techniques has high requirements for Qi, but I don't have that ability, you have to drip a drop of blood from every paper figure. ”

I hesitated a little with the knife, Lilac looked at it, rolled her eyes, and muttered, "Big man, let my mother-in-law have some blood." As she spoke, she grabbed my finger and slashed it at the tip.

"Hmm-" I guessed, but I was still in pain, and I bit my lip so I didn't scream.

"It's kind of backbone." Lilac laughed and grabbed my fingers and dripped blood on the paper figures' heads one by one.

"Senior sister, now can you tell me what's going on, right? What kind of wicked person wants to harm me? I took the opportunity to ask the question I was most concerned about, and Lilac knew that the sooner this question was explained, the better, so she said, "Okay, I'll tell you about the clothes first, lest you die and don't know how to die." ”

Lilac said it easily, my brows jumped when I heard it, and I couldn't help but roll my eyes: "Senior sister, this is about my life..."

"Man is inherently mortal!" Lilac patted me on the shoulder in awe, and if she hadn't been dripping blood from my fingertips onto the paper figures, I would have been gloating for her.

Seeing me glaring at her speechlessly, Lilac coughed lightly, and then began to explain: "Actually, this wicked man can't say that it's you, but the shopkeeper in a piece of paper. But my uncle doesn't happen to be there, so you're out of luck. ”

"What the hell is going on?" I couldn't help but ask, I'm too much of a loss to put my life in for 4,000 yuan, right?

"Did I tell you just now? I came from Xiangxi and belonged to the Xiangxi White-clothed School. Lilac said, seeing me nodding, she continued, "The warlocks in Xiangxi are divided into two factions, I am the one in white, and I am the right. The other faction is black, and their gang is cultivating evil ways, and this spiritual talisman is their masterpiece. ”

"Wait, Senior Sister, those people aren't coming for you, are they?" Hearing this, I glanced at the beautiful girl in front of me with some suspicion.

Lilac unceremoniously tapped me on the forehead and said, "Of course not, how did they know I was coming here?" I was surprised that the men in black would come to this city, but they would find trouble everywhere they went. Detain evil spirits, send zombies, do all kinds of evil, if the shopkeeper of that store is weak, it is likely to die! You're lucky, you've been saved by the Soul Bell and the Guardian Gate God,"

"Damn, if I hadn't come to work in this shop, I wouldn't have encountered such bad luck at all, would I?" I couldn't help but complain, I didn't expect that I thought it was just a summer job, but I would encounter such a fatal thing.

"I guess, my uncle probably didn't know that the man in black came to Hulukou, otherwise he would never have left you here alone." Lilac then analyzed, "The Soul Suppression Bell and two guardian door gods are enough to deal with ordinary ghosts and demons, but it is not enough for the black-clothed faction who is also a sorcerer." ”

"Senior sister, why would the person in black find trouble with a piece of paper? Isn't this just a paper shop? I observed a few seconds of silence for myself, then asked a question.

Lilac said: "This can be traced back to our ancestors. Fundamentally speaking, our warlocks in Xiangxi are all out of the same family, and in the mouths of outsiders, they are called corpse chasers. ”

I'm Nyima! Corpse chasers?

As soon as I heard these three words, I subconsciously thought that Lilac was joking, but judging by her expression, it was not a joke.

"At first glance, you don't know it, the corpse chasing sect is broad and profound, and it is divided into three sects according to the spell. One corpse, two spirits, and three underworlds, the black clothes are corpses, specializing in crooked ways. Senior sister, I am white-clothed, Lingmen, I learned the doorway of detaining the soul and asking the yin, and the ancestor of the paper-clothed crown is the underworld, and I walk the road of the underworld through the underworld and deal with ghosts. ”

Lilac explained one by one, and I listened carefully, obviously what Lilac said about the corpse chaser faction is very different from what I know, at least three things, I have heard of it for the first time.

"Later, I didn't know what happened, Sanmen fell out and split up, and the specific reason is probably only known to my master and uncle." Lilac continued.

"After the separation, the white clothes and the black clothes stayed in Xiangxi, but they always competed with each other, and the ancestors of your underworld escaped into the red dust. With the ability to walk through the underworld, he opened a 'paper clothes' and the convenience of the dead, so that those lonely souls and wild ghosts can also have a place to buy underworld products. But the gang in black will always get us in trouble. ”

"It's... Accumulate yin virtue, right? "Hearing this, I can't help but wonder what happened in the first place to split the three gates.

"Sort of, I don't know what you well-dressed ancestors of the Underworld Sect think. However, the gang in black definitely does not agree with your point of view, and there has always been a fierce quarrel between the three gates, and it was not until after the founding of the People's Republic of China that it was somewhat restrained. Speaking of which, Lilac looked at me with a little pity, "You are also a little unlucky, and you happened to be caught in this whirlpool." ”

Can you not be unlucky? It's too late for me to cry!

When I heard this, I already understood that the attack of the evil spirit yesterday was not my own or one shop's business, and it involved too much.

At this time, Lilac had already dotted the twelve paper figures with blood, and then spread them in front of him, and there were words in his mouth, and I didn't understand what was being read, probably in the dialect of Xiangxi.

But I saw something miraculous happen, the blood on the twelve paper figures was slowly absorbed, and finally completely submerged in the paper figures, and there seemed to be a faint thread connecting from them to my body!

"It's done, the twelve puppet stand-ins are done! It should last a day or two, enough for the black-clothed man to find. Lilac clapped her hands and looked happy.

I blew on my fingers, put them in my mouth and sucked them to stop the bleeding.

At this time, I heard a jingle bell from outside the door, and a strong yin wind blew in, making the curtain tremble!
