Chapter Twenty-Six: The Ghost Carries the Coffin
The iron chains on the red coffin are vertical and horizontal, and the daughter-in-law said that she can't sense the red coffin, I'm afraid it is related to these chains. But with my strength, when I get it to the shore, it is not Liu Guozhu and Xie Guangcai who are waiting for me, I am afraid that it is also the group of people who want to enter Yin Village.
In their hands, let alone helping my daughter-in-law, my own life is difficult to protect, and the best way at the moment is to rely on the Yin Swallowing Talisman and stay in the river to untie the chains on the red coffin.
While I was still thinking about it, the river suddenly rattled, followed by a series of white human bones.
I shuddered with fear, but I wasn't so scared when I saw it, and at the same time as the skeletons of those people came out, something else floated up in the water.
The moonlight was hazy, and the river was dark, and I didn't see them until they were lying on human bones, and they were monkey-like things, dark blue, with bulging mouths and sharp canine teeth sticking out.
It's a green ghost!
Uncle Li killed one in the mill, and although I didn't see it clearly, I had seen the skin of a green ghost.
The fat man said that there was something in the water, and I am afraid it was these green ghosts and white bones. It's just that I can't do what he said, because the green ghost will bite me as soon as he appears, so frightened that I screamed and crawled onto the red coffin with a chain.
The green ghost couldn't get up for a while, so he rode on the white bones and circled around the red coffin.
When I looked down, I saw that the golden dragon was still wandering in the water, and I touched my body, only to find that I had fallen into the water in a hurry.
But fortunately, the golden dragon on the talisman is still protecting me, blocking all the yin qi from the outside.
Seeing that the green ghost and yin qi couldn't touch me, my heart calmed down a little. Looking up at the shore, I saw that the previous bank was completely invisible from here, and instead there was an embankment covered with yellow sand.
Yin Village and Yin River are not things in the yang world, they are somewhat similar to mirages, they are both illusory things, the difference is that Yin Village and Yin River can be touched by people in a specific environment.
Now it seems that Yin He may be inextricably linked to Qingshui Village.
I pulled off the chains, cold and sturdy, each one the thickness of a baby's arm, and even if I had a tool, I could keep getting it for a while.
And the iron chain of the red coffin will not be an ordinary thing, the more I think about it, the more anxious I become, but just when I was throwing the mouse bogey, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I hurriedly took out a wooden talisman from my pocket and pinched it in the palm of my hand, took a deep breath and slapped it towards the chain.
The moment I hit it, my palm seemed to explode a ball of electricity, my whole body was numb, and the stinging pain like fire was burning.
Looking at the iron chain, it still did not move, leaving no traces.
After trying it, I also determined that as long as it is related to magic, it can stimulate energy under collision, since the wooden talisman can be, the flame of the jade lamp should also be able to.
Thinking of this, I hurriedly took out the jade lamp, bit open the scabbed wound on the finger of my left hand again, and filled it with the lamp.
The moment the jade lamp was lit, the green ghosts cruising around let out a roar from their mouths, and they moved away a little.
I didn't look at the river for more than ten seconds, and when I was looking, my scalp was numb, and I saw that the entire Yin River was full of white bones, and each white bone was riding a green ghost.
I gasped for air, and I didn't have time to think about how I was going to get back. After the jade lamp was lit, I hurriedly popped out the lamp to burn the chain.
The flame slammed against the chain, making a snorting sound, and when the flame was extinguished, I hurriedly reached out and touched it, and a dent appeared in the smooth chain.
There was an effect, and I was overjoyed, and hurriedly popped out more flames.
But just as I was concentrating on burning the chains, the temperature around me dropped suddenly, and I shivered.
The coffin was not big, and it was already swaying in the water, and I almost slipped off it when I shook it, and in order to stabilize my body, I subconsciously grabbed the chain.
As a result, he used his left hand, and the charred palm touched the iron chain, and the cold caused a sharp pain. But in the shaking, some of the blood in my lamp spilled out, and it landed right on the iron chain, and the iron chain suddenly emitted black smoke, which melted in an instant, and broke in a few seconds.
I didn't care about the pain at first glance, I stabilized the coffin and withdrew my left hand, I never thought that the scorched skin on it was all stuck to it because the chain was too cold, and this tear, the whole piece of skin in the palm of my hand was torn off, and it was bloody.
It is said that ten fingers are connected to the heart, not to mention the skin of the palm, I screamed in pain, and I cried spinelessly wiping my eyes.
My mouth was whining and crying, but I still had tears in my eyes and put my peeled hand on the chain, and the blood poured down like a thread, fusing the chain one by one.
At the same time, I looked into the water and found that the golden dragon had dimmed, which showed that the effect of the Yin Devouring Talisman was time-limited, and when its power was exhausted, I could only swim back with the cold.
The chains crisscrossed each other, all fastened independently, and when the last one broke, the coffin shook violently in the water.
I didn't think about going back immediately, but looked around to see if my daughter-in-law was here, but I didn't see it for a few seconds, and I thought of Uncle Li saying that if the heavenly coffin entered the Yin Village, something would happen, and I was afraid that the daughter-in-law would not be able to enter the Yin River.
Half a minute has passed, and my daughter-in-law has not yet appeared, which basically verified my idea, but at this moment, the golden dragon of the Yin Swallowing Diagram is almost invisible, and I don't know if I can stand it when I enter the water.
A minute passed, and my daughter-in-law still didn't come, so I gritted my teeth and filled the jade lamp with blood, and shone it into the river behind me, and the green ghosts immediately dispersed, and I took the opportunity to slide into the water.
The moment I entered the water, I felt like I had fallen into an ice cave in July, and my body was immediately numb, but I could still hold on.
I gritted my teeth, pressed my back against the red coffin, held the jade lantern high in my left hand, and dispelled the green ghosts back and forth, paddling desperately with my right hand and feet.
Losing the restraint of the iron chain, the red coffin was much lighter, and with the help of the buoyancy of the water, it was pushed up by me.
The surrounding green ghosts were afraid of the light of the jade lamp, and only dared to stare outside.
After landing, I was so cold that my whole body was tingling, and I didn't want to stay in the water for a moment, so I hurriedly climbed ashore. The green ghosts in the river rode on the white bones, poked their heads out of the shore and roared, as if they were about to pounce at any time, but they fluttered and fluttered, and none of them dared to jump up.
After all, the green ghost in the mill was deliberately brought up by someone.
Seeing that they didn't dare to go ashore, I breathed a sigh of relief, put the jade lamp in the yellow sand, and dragged the red coffin hard. But with my thin body, how could I move a red coffin of four or five hundred catties.
I loosened the chain and was about to go to Li Lin and the fat man to help, but as soon as I turned around, the green ghost behind me began to pull the red coffin. I hurriedly took the lamp and shone it over, and the green ghosts scattered and fled, with a smug smile on the face of the sharp-beaked monkey, and began to stir the water with his hands, trying to use the water waves to wash the red coffin back into the middle of the Yin River.
In this way, even if I put the jade lamp on the red coffin, when I come back, the red coffin will probably be swung into the river.
I returned to the shore and reached out to pull the red coffin. The green ghost screamed sharply, as if mocking. It made my heart furious, I didn't think this thing had an IQ.
I couldn't pull away, so I could only open my voice and shout Li Lin to see if he could hear it. As a result, I waited for a few minutes and didn't move, and it is estimated that here, the sound cannot be transmitted outside.
Just when I didn't know what to do, a group of people suddenly appeared on the riverbank and walked towards me at a very fast speed.
The moment they got closer and saw their faces clearly, the hairs on my body stood on end.
The seven people who came were all from the Liu family, and they were the five who had just died and Grandma Liu.
I have just stayed with the corpses for one night after keeping a yin for them, and now when I see them, my heart has a very strong impact on my heart.
They were also afraid of the jade lamp, and they didn't dare to come in when they stopped outside the light, their eyes were straight and their hands were hammered, and they were lifeless.
Just as I didn't know what to do, another person came out of the riverbank and shouted from afar, "Ding Ning, put out the lights, let them help you carry the coffin." ”
The distance was a bit far, but I could recognize the outfit on her body, the flower clothes and pants, and the hat with the veil, which was the woman Chen Xue disguised.
I listened to her words, I don't know whether to believe or not, but after thinking about it, she didn't seem to have lied to me, she said that the second uncle was the murderer, at first I thought she had bad intentions, but last night I listened to the conversation between the second uncle and my father, which proved that what she said was true.
Perhaps, Chen Xue just wanted to remind me that the second uncle had killed someone and asked me to be careful. After all, she didn't know if the second uncle would harm me because he was going to enter Yin Village.
At the moment, I have no other way, as long as I can let the red coffin leave the Yin River, I can do anything, so I nodded
However, before the lights went out, I rushed into the river with a jade lantern, scaring the green ghosts into all directions. My left hand was bloody, and I didn't dare to pinch the wick to scare off the green ghost, so I poked the jade lamp on my clothes with my backhand and extinguished it.
Chen Xue only came over at this time, she made a strange sound from her mouth, the seven ghosts of the Liu family, led by Grandma Liu and Uncle Liu, walked into the river and prepared to carry the red coffin, but at this time, the green ghosts were restless, making a snorting sound, and wanted to stop it.
Chen Xue let out a strange cry at the Yin River, and when those green ghosts heard her cry, they ran faster than they saw the jade lantern, and they rode back into the water like dumplings.
In the book that the second uncle gave me, there are also the deeds of the Yin walkers, they can go down to the Yin Cao, and the number of times they will have the breath of the underworld. Some of them are also friendly with the yin below, so it can be said that the hundred ghosts dare not touch themselves, and the ghost control is naturally not a problem.
As soon as the green ghosts dispersed, Grandma Liu and the others immediately lifted the red coffin and left the Yin River.
Chen Xue still spoke to me in a hoarse voice, and seeing that she didn't want to reveal her identity, I didn't break it, and followed her silently.
I soon discovered that she didn't take a straight route, and sometimes she would go back.
Xuanmen is profound, what I see and feel with my eyes may not be real, and Chen Xue should have the ability to see through the unreal.
Sure enough, after following her for about ten minutes, it suddenly became clear in front of me, and what appeared in front of me was a barren mountain in the forbidden land.
The fat man and Li Lin were still on the shore, and Uncle Li also came out, but their situation was a little bad, and they were surrounded by more than 20 people.
