After arriving at the destination, Su Mu laid out a spirit gathering array on the ground in front of the ancient mansion, and then let Tao Jiang stand in front of the array, and he pasted a purification charm on Tao Jiang to purify the breath on his body. 『』

The effect of the Spirit Gathering Array was extremely powerful, and Tao Jiang felt that the light in front of him was a little brighter in a trance.

Su Musha is a soul crosser, so he can naturally see things that Tao Jiang can't see. This is not just a simple "brighter", the aura gathered from all directions, condensed into tiny particles and entered the array, forming a large scale aura field.

Those who were attracted by the Spirit Gathering Array were not only aura. A large number of tiny spirits lurking in the woods of the land are also surging like moths meeting fire. These monsters didn't dare to get close to Su Musha's body, Tao Jiang, an ordinary person, was different, such an abundant aura was enough to make the spirits crazy enough to pounce on him and tear him apart!

Su Musha stood behind Tao Jiang, pulled out the demon slashing sword to face those spirits, as soon as the demon slaying sword came out of the scabbard, the sword intent radiated to the surroundings, and everywhere they went, the spirits avoided one after another, they looked at the red sword in horror, and finally could only hide back unwillingly.

Tao Jiang naturally didn't know anything about this, he only saw Su Mu cover the door of the ancient mansion, and then said something to the pupil demon villain, and the pupil demon villain "slipped in" into the ancient mansion.

Su Musha turned back again, came to Tao Jiang's side, and gave him a black thing.

Tao Jiang caught it and looked at it carefully, but he didn't see what it was, so he had to ask Su Musha: "Mr. Su, what is this?" ”

Su Musha said: "This is a piece of the trunk that I broke off from the throat demon tree yesterday, if you hold it, it may have some effect." ”

Tao Jiang nodded and clenched the trunk. Su Musha said again: "Now close your eyes and think about your younger brother Tao Yan in your heart." Try to relax your breathing. ”

Tao Jiang closed his eyes according to his words, and Su Musha hid behind a tree, hid the breath around him, and then poked his head out to quietly observe the situation outside.

There was no sound except for the rustle of the wind through the leaves. The spirits poked their heads around the corners, but they didn't dare to really make any moves. The Spirit Gathering Array is still there to absorb it, circulating the aura. The ancient mansion also stands there quietly, and it seems to be normal.

Hitomi hid in the corner of the second floor, staring at the dead tree in the center of the room.

The clouds in the sky had dispersed, and the light of the moon shone in through the skylight, shining on the tree, when suddenly, a branch stretched out from the trunk.

The pupil demon was stunned, blinked, and continued to look at the tree. Sure enough, it continued to grow branches, faster and faster, and in a few moments the tree became lush and green, and the branches spread out in all directions spherical shape enveloped the whole tree, and the base of the exposed trunk quickly regained its vitality and turned a tender green color. Then a flower bud sprang out from the top of the branch, and the bud slowly unfolded in the moonlight, until it turned into a huge bright red flower completely.

At the same time, Pang Su and Zhao Xiachu, who were watching the "live broadcast" at the hotel, naturally also saw this scene, but this originally very weird scene made them "poof", and they both laughed, just because the shape of the "throat-sealing demon tree" was too strange, and there was a big flower on top of the round leaves, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a huge, thornless, cactus......

Hitomi hides her figure in the deeper darkness, carefully observing the tree.

The branches of the tree were constantly scaling in the moonlight, like the movement of human breathing. After seeing this qiē clearly, the pupil demon decided to leave the house first and go to tell Su Mushu about the matter.

As soon as it moved, the tree shook violently, and then a long branch seemed to pull over like this!

The Hitomi Demon nimbly rolled on the ground, dodging the branch, and the branch's attack landed on the ground, leaving a deep imprint.

Seeing that he had been discovered, the Hitomi Demon immediately stopped staying and ran directly to the window.

The branch followed it closely, and just as it was about to entangle it, the rune paper emitted a golden light, and it flicked the branch back violently, causing the Hitomi Demon to jump out of the window.

Seeing that the prey had successfully escaped, the Throat Sealing Demon Tree waved its branches around like angry, but there was nothing to do about the Pupil Demon.

Pang Su here was frightened into a cold sweat, the branches were less than a centimeter away from his eyes just now, but fortunately, Master Soul Master's rune paper was very powerful at this critical moment, and his eyes were successfully saved.

After the pupil demon jumped down from the second floor, Su Mu flashed out from behind the tree, and caught it with his eyes and hands, and the pupil demon stood in his palm, gesturing his hands and feet, and then made a flowering movement with his small hands.

Su Musha guessed, "That tree is blooming?" ”

The pupil demon nodded, Su Musha looked up at the second floor, and then whispered to the pupil demon: "You go back first, and I'll do the rest." ”

The pupil demon shook his head and hugged Su Musha's wrist, indicating that he also wanted to stay here. (Pang Su cried bitterly in his heart: You unfilial son, you dare to stay in such a dangerous place, you really forgot your master when you saw Su Musha!) ）

Su Musha saw that the moonlight on the second floor was bright, and he didn't say more, and directly took the pupil demon into his arms, and said, "Okay, then you just hold me firmly and don't let go!" ”

Tao Jiang heard a call at this time, and the voice kept saying "brother, brother", he opened his eyes in shock, this is Tao Yan's voice!

The scenery in front of me has changed, and it is no longer a dark and dilapidated old house, but a home with bright and warm lights.

Through the clear glass, Tao Jiang can vaguely see the scene inside the house, the familiar figure is lying on the sofa reading a book, seeing Tao Jiang motionless outside the house, he put down the book in his hand, propped up his head to look at Tao Jiang, and said: "Brother, why don't you enter the house, what are you doing standing there stupidly?" ”

Tao Jiang froze, tears poured out of his eyes, falling to the ground drop by drop, he muttered: "Tao Yan, brother ......" and then rushed into the room like crazy!

At this time, he had already ignored the wrong place, and only this intact younger brother was in his eyes.

Su Musha saw Tao Jiang rushing into the ancient mansion like this, and knew that it was the throat sealing demon tree that confused his mind, so he lured him in, and hurriedly followed Tao Jiang into the house together.

Tao Jiang followed "Tao Yan" all the way to the second floor, he looked at the strange tree blankly, and only Tao Yan was in his eyes. He heard Tao Yan constantly calling his name, and stretched out his hands, as if trying to hug him.

After Su Mu covered it, he saw Tao Jiang approaching the throat demon tree step by step, and the branches of the tree had already wrapped around his wrist, but he didn't know anything.

Su Musha no longer hesitated at the moment, and directly stepped forward with the demon slaying sword and cut off those branches. When the demon tree saw that its branches were cut off, it was immediately furious, and it waved more branches and attacked the two of them!

Su Musha held a sword in one hand to block it, and was about to push Tao Jiang away with the other, but Tao Jiang didn't seem to feel it, his eyes were dull, and he still wanted to move forward. Su Musha couldn't, so he had to pull Tao Jiang back, and then slashed at the back of his neck with one palm, knocking Tao Jiang unconscious, and throwing him in a safe area, so that he could rest assured to fight with the demon tree.

After a few rounds of back and forth, most of the branches of the Throat Sealing Demon Tree were cut off, and it knew that a powerful character was coming tonight, so it suddenly withdrew the branches, and the flowers at the top also closed together.

Su Musha thought that it was going to turn back into dead wood, and he was in a hurry, and took a few quick steps, wanting to take advantage of this opportunity to cut off this demon tree in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, the floor under his feet suddenly softened, and then black-green rancid slime seeped out from the ground little by little, and his shoes began to emit white smoke when they touched the slime, and then began to melt little by little. Su Musha was startled, and then he realized that this was most likely digestive juice!

He couldn't take care of the demon tree anymore, turned around and ran to Tao Jiang's side, then picked up Tao Jiang and jumped directly from the second floor. Because of the aura protection, Su Musha and Tao Jiang were not injured after they landed, and fortunately, the winter clothes were thick, and Tao Jiang's body was not corroded.

Su Mu covered Tao Jiang and threw a stack of rune paper behind him while running out, and the rune paper fell neatly in front of the house, overlapping into a long rune paper line, surrounding the house.

The green slime had already flowed out of the gate and was spreading outward, until it reached the edge of the rune paper line, and all the rune paper glowed golden, and then stopped.

Su Musha placed Tao Jiang next to the tree, and then turned to look at the house, which was no longer the dilapidated and old appearance it had before, but had become a mountain of bones piled up with countless white bones. Countless skull limbs/body intercourse/entanglement, all of which are constantly opening and closing their mouths, and the black hole at the eye is emitting a dead light, and they are looking at this side faintly.

Seeing this, Su Mu couldn't help but feel difficult. Now that things have become like this, even if he is a spirit crosser, he can't go in again, but if he doesn't go in, how can he destroy this mountain of white bones?

Just as Su Mu was in a dilemma, Han Qi's voice sounded from his spiritual consciousness: "Who said that only the living can enter, and the dead can do the same." ”

Su Musha suddenly had a flash of inspiration, yes, dead thing! He didn't have time to say more, so he used a pen to write on the rune paper, "Help me buy 10 paper piercing people and send them over", and then put them in front of the eyes of the pupil demon in his arms.

The pupil demon looked at it carefully and nodded, indicating that his master had already acted.

The waiting time was always very long, and the hungry ghost's digestion was extremely strong, and now that the corroded light of the rune paper thread had been reduced by half, I was afraid that it would not last long. Su Musha pinned his hopes on Pang Su, and now there was only one way to deal with this cannibalistic house.

Ten minutes later, Pang Su and Zhao Xiachu hurried over, and when the two saw the appearance of the house, Rao was prepared, and they were frightened for a while.

Su Musha didn't have time to explain to them, so he directly snatched the ten paper piercing people in the hands of the two of them, placed them neatly on the ground, and then stuffed several blasting talismans into the bodies of each paper piercing people, and pasted them with spirit gathering talismans.

After doing this qiē, there was nothing left of the rune paper thread that had been corroded, and the green slime flowed out little by little, and everywhere it went, all the plants were corroded. Su Musha turned his head and shouted to Zhao Xiachu and Pang Su: "Take Tao Jiang, stand back!" ”

The two picked up the unconscious Tao Jiang and hurriedly retreated, Su Musha stood behind the paper piercing man, bit his fingers, wiped the blood on the paper piercing man, and then quickly sealed, saying, "Get up!" ”

A miraculous scene happened, and the ten papier-mâché men stood up like human beings and walked towards the house with stiff movements.

The house did not prevent them from entering, and when the paper figures came to the entrance of the cave of the bone mountain, several branches stretched out and pulled all the paper figures inside!

Su Musha waited for a moment, and when he saw that the time had come, he quickly retreated, and then shouted: "Break!" ”

With a "boom", the bone mountain exploded from the inside, turning into a huge piece of meat and smashing everywhere, emitting a foul smell, so that several people couldn't help but cover their noses.

The karmic fire burned brightly on the pieces of meat, and everyone heard an extremely terrible cry, and then calmed down.

The pieces of meat were burned clean, and the place where the house was originally located became an open space. Su Musha stepped forward to check, and sure enough, he saw that there was a formation to suppress ghosts here, but it had been destroyed. He guessed that some spirit masters had found out that this man-eating house was making waves before, so they used a formation to suppress it, probably because it was a long time before it would be broken by the hungry ghosts, so they continued to come out and harm people.

Su Musha found the eye of the formation, stepped on it with his foot, and it collapsed, revealing a deep pit, but it was just ...... The scenery in this pit is horrific.

There are corpses lined up neatly inside, and if you count them, there are thirty-five corpses!

Tao Jiang had woken up at this time and was slowly walking towards this side. Su Musha stepped aside so that he could see the scene in the pit.

Tao Jiang's face was very numb at this time, he jumped directly into the pit, and checked the bones one by one, until he found the white bone with a necklace around his neck, he squatted down, picked it up and put it in his arms, and quietly shed tears......

Su Musha looked at him like this, sighed, ignited several death talismans, and sent all the souls of those who had seen the light of day into the ghost/road.

After finishing this qiē, he took out the phone, dialed a number, and said, "Is it Zhang Daoyuan?" I recently caught a ghost and found multiple bones, but the police/inspector ......."

……

postscript

Early spring, Guanshan, halfway up the mountain, Guanshan Cemetery.

Here are neatly lined up with several lines of tombstones, quietly guarding the spirits of the dead. The weather is slightly cold, but it is rarely a sunny day.

Tao Jiang only carried a pot of wine and walked slowly down the stone steps. Maybe he accepted this fact, or maybe he saw it, and the grief in his heart was not as strong as it was two months ago.

In such a beautiful place, Tao Yan should like it, right? This is also thanks to Mr. Du Lingshi's help in selecting the site, so that it is convenient to eliminate the possibility of Tao Yan's misfortune, so that he can be reincarnated as soon as possible.

Tao Jiang thought about his thoughts, and it seemed that he would arrive in front of the monument after a while. This is the second time he has come to this place, and he looked at the smile of Tao Yan on the tombstone photo, and felt that time is so merciless.

Tao Yan in his memory seems to be a little doll, following him like a little heel all day long, as well-behaved as a little girl. Who knew that this delicate child had such a strong curiosity?

He was busy mingling with relatives who wanted to suck blood from their brother like a locust, and in the blink of an eye they were both grown up.

He had been standing in front of this tombstone for more than half an hour. He sighed silently in his heart, turned around and sat down in front of the monument, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it all. The second cup was poured on Tao Yan, sprinkled in front of the stele, and said as if chatting with Tao Yan in the past: "You say that you like this kind of ghost/strange thing on weekdays, now it's good, you can study it yourself, and you can become a part of them." But even if you want to be a ghost, you have to be a good ghost. ”

He looked at the sky and said, "Your brother and I are sorry for you, but I couldn't let you live a comfortable life." When you were younger, you followed me and worried about things you shouldn't have worried. When we grow up, we can finally catch our breath, and no one will rob us or hurt us. But I don't support you, and it should be very uncomfortable for you to secretly develop your hobbies all day long, right? If I had found out earlier, or if I had been more vigilant, I wouldn't have regretted it as much as I do now, right? ”

He poured himself another glass, pinched it in his hand and didn't drink it, but squinted his eyes and said: "Both of us are at fault, and now, I just hope that you can have a good birth in the next life, and you can have a family that cares for you like me." I've avenged you, let go of what should be put down, I don't hate, and you don't hate either. I'll try to be happy, you...... Go in peace, I'll toast you again. ”

He drank all the wine in the cup and poured another glass for Tao Yan on the ground. Maybe it was an illusion, he felt that his surroundings were not so cold.

Tao Jiang stood up, did not look at the tombstone, and said goodbye: "I have been with you long enough, I should leave, and I will come to see you next time." Also, if you are going to be reincarnated, remember to tell me in your dreams. ”

He walked down the steps slowly, the spring breeze blowing him was so affectionate, the photos on the tombstone were still so bright, the people inside were smiling without haze, and they watched him leave gently, the smile in his eyes made people feel happy when they looked at it, and they couldn't help but feel that everything was so beautiful.

I'll be fine, and so will you.
