Chapter 122: A New Discovery
Hearing the old ghost say this, I instantly knew that Hu San must have been driven away by Yuding Zhenren.
"Since you know him, is it true that he said something evil?" Xiaogui looked at me and asked.
After hearing this, I shook my head with a smile and said, "What he said should not be true, if it is, my master will not say that it is artificial." And you haven't discovered it yourself, you've seen it with your own eyes, so why believe his nonsense? ”
Xiao Gui smiled after hearing this, and then said, "You're right, then should we expose him." Let this liar be revealed, and then he will not be able to continue to deceive. ”
"No, it's not convenient for us to show up right now, our main purpose is to find that person. Let Xiaoyou's master deal with this clown, and we just need to pay attention to the person we are looking for. The old ghost suddenly interjected.
After hearing this, I nodded: "The old ghost is right, our main purpose is to find that person, and we can't expose it too soon." ”
After that, we looked at it for a while, and we didn't see anything wrong, so we decided to go back first.
On the way back, Xiaogui suddenly looked at me and said, "By the way, I found another hiding place for those cats two days ago. But I forgot to tell you at the time, and now I have to wait for the evening when I go back, so why don't we go and have a look together? ”
I glanced at the old ghost, who nodded slowly at me.
I looked at Xiaogui and said, "Let's go, go and see." ”
After that, the old ghost and I followed Xiaogui and walked in the opposite direction to the village cemetery. We walked for about half an hour, during which Xiaogui stopped and stopped, constantly looking for the marks he made along the way.
At this time, we were getting farther and farther away from the village, and there were more and more small hills around us, and even more trees. But these trees are not very tall, they are not very tall, they are not to mention short, and they grow crookedly.
"It's almost there." Xiao Gui said suddenly.
I looked around and wondered, "There's no cat here, not even a small hole." ”
"If I'm correct, it's not far ahead." The old ghost squinted his right eye and looked ahead.
I looked ahead as well, but I didn't see anything wrong. There's nothing wrong here, and that's what you can see about these crooked neck trees.
Before I could speak, Xiaogui walked forward again. I glanced at the old ghost suspiciously, and then followed Xiao Gui towards the front.
We didn't go far enough before we started to go downhill. Not far away, I faintly saw a large clearing, and there seemed to be something in the middle of the clearing.
A moment later, the three of us came to the edge of the clearing. But Xiao Gui stopped me and the old ghost at this time, and then he kept looking around.
"What's wrong?" I looked at Xiaogui and wondered.
"Be careful, the last time I was here, the clearing was full of black cats. Now there is not a single cat, so maybe it is hiding somewhere. Xiao Gui said while looking around.
The old ghost looked at Xiao Gui and said, "If I'm not mistaken, I think you should have come at night." ”
Xiao Gui nodded after hearing this, and the old ghost smiled and continued: "Then there should be no problem, let's go in." ”
After speaking, the old ghost walked directly towards the top of the open space, and Xiao Gui didn't have time to speak at this time.
After the old ghost walked into the clearing, there was nothing unusual around. Xiaogui and I walked up to the clearing, and I walked towards the center of the clearing while scanning the surroundings.
When I got closer, I realized that the thing I had seen earlier was actually seven wooden stakes. There are iron chains between each of them, and there are some incomprehensible lines on the stakes, which look like some kind of pattern when you look closely.
In the middle of these stakes are seven large stones, each of which is connected to the stake by an iron chain.
"What is this?" I looked at the stakes and wondered.
"If I'm not mistaken, this must be some kind of secret method to restrain the soul. However, this kind of secret method is very rare, especially the pattern on the wooden stake, because it is too complicated, so there are few people who know it. The old ghost said, looking at the lines on the stake.
I turned my gaze to the old ghost and said, "You mean, there's a ghost sealed down here?" ”
The old ghost nodded and said, "It should be like this." ”
After hearing this, I was very puzzled, a few wooden stakes with lines carved on them can seal ghosts? It's unlikely, I thought as I stepped over the chain and headed inside.
"Don't ......," the old ghost suddenly shouted at me, but before he could finish his words, I was already inside.
"What?" I turned my head to look at the old ghost suspiciously.
As soon as my words fell, I suddenly felt a void under my feet, and then my body fell downward.
"Ah......h
"Bang......" I fell to the ground.
But I didn't feel any pain in my body, it was as if I had fallen on something. I reached out and touched underneath me, and I felt the thing under me be cold, wet and sticky, and a little fleshy.
I also smelled a stench, like something rotting.
"Little friend, are you okay?" The old ghost asked from above.
I quickly stood up and shouted to the top: "I'm fine, I seem to have fallen on something, but there is a little pain in my body." It seems like there's a lot of space down there, but it's so dark that I can't see it clearly. ”
"You get out of the way, I'll come down." The old ghost shouted at me.
When I heard this, I hurriedly stepped aside, and then I saw the old ghost jump down from above.
When the old ghost came down, he shouted to him, "This place is a little dark, and I bother the donor to make a torch." ”
After hearing this, Xiaogui replied on it: "Okay." ”
After that, Xiaogui left, and after a while he returned, he threw down the torch made of clothes and sticks. The old ghost hurriedly took out a fire fold and lit the torch.
And Xiaogui also jumped down after a while, and at this time the old ghost's torch had been lit.
By the light of the torches, I could finally see what I had just fallen on.
But the next second I shouted, "Ah...... Corpse...... Corpse. ”
I pointed to my feet and shouted, and when Xiaogui and the old ghost heard my voice, they looked at my feet. Then I saw Xiao Gui keep moving his body backwards, but the old ghost frowned slightly.
