Chapter 16: A Man, a Corpse, and a Ghost

The old woodcutter looked at the young man for a moment and asked if I had caught him.

I nodded, and the old woodcutter's face sank, and he said in a cold voice, Don't bring anyone up in the future except you and your friends.

He looked a little scary, like when my grandfather lost his temper, I was so scared that I quickly nodded.

The old woodcutter snorted, and went into the hut with his hands behind his back.

Chen Hao asked me, boss, what should I do?

I came to the old woodcutter to let him save his life, and it was an unexpected gain to catch the person who caught the soul gate, gritted his teeth and said, continue to ask, and kill him after asking.

When Chen Hao heard that he was going to kill someone, his hands trembled a little, in fact, I was also afraid, so I just talked casually, wanting to scare the young man.

When the old woodcutter heard what we said, he said in the hut that the Soul Gate is for the underworld, and it is half a bad thing, and if you kill him, you may provoke the things below.

Working for the prefecture?

Chen Hao and I both frowned, that is a place where life and death are controlled, and we can't afford to mess with it. It's more cumbersome to put it back.

I calculated the time, it was almost dawn outside, and I couldn't delay, so I asked about the year before I could say anything else.

Chen Hao held down his foot, and I was about to smash his toes, but before I started, the young man said in a trembling voice, Dang, Dang, what happened back then, someone asked the Soul Hook Gate to do it, not that we want to harm you.

Who?

I asked, gesturing and lifting the stone. But it soon became clear that the young man was not afraid of the stone in my hand, but of the old woodcutter. He glanced at the hut and said in a panic, I don't know who it is, it was my senior brother who hooked the soul back then, I heard him say that that person had mentioned a person, a corpse, and a ghost. I don't really know about the rest.

One person, one corpse, one ghost?

I glanced at Chen Hao, and thought of the female corpse, isn't this just the three of us?

Chen Hao continued to ask, smashing the five toes of his left foot bloody, but unfortunately he really didn't know and couldn't ask anything.

The young man was so painful that tears flowed out of his nose, and said pleadingly, Zhang Tong, I really don't know, but this matter should be related to the secret of your family. If you let me live, I won't tell you what happened today.

I didn't answer him, and Chen Hao took out all the things on his body, there are a lot of yin and yang charms, which are not comparable to the stalls.

Chen Hao liked the order flag, and when the young man saw him pick it up, he immediately said, this is the soul gathering flag of our soul hooking gate, which is specially designed to restrain ghosts, I have been refining for five years, as long as I collect two hundred and fifty powerful ghosts is the soul flag, the power will be greatly increased.

He is just the realm of heaven and earth, but he almost destroyed Chen Hao with the Soul Gathering Banner, and the Soul Banner sounded a lot more advanced, Chen Hao's heart was moved.

I'm also itching, and using it to deal with the things in the altar is simply twice the result with half the effort.

However, I also know that as soon as this magic weapon is taken out, it will be exposed, so Chen Hao should not worry about it. But Chen Hao said, boss, we can't use it, but we can sell it for money, I saw a pawnshop in the town, and I dare to take anything.

In the last few days, I've been bothered a lot, and I didn't pay attention to it, but he really saw it. But I was afraid that my breath would be exposed, and Chen Hao said again, I'll just take it into the collar.

Can you still bring something in with a collar?

Chen Hao said that there were thousands of souls imprisoned in the Soul Gathering Banner, and the yin qi was heavy, so they could be brought in, but nothing else would work.

So you can give it a try.

Seeing that Chen Hao and I were only concerned about dividing up the things on him, the young man asked with a bitter face, "Two big brothers, what I just said......

I was determined not to take him away, the Yin Talisman was given to Chen Hao, I received the Yang Talisman, the first time I had a talisman that could hurt the enemy, I was a little excited, and I used a Cloud Talisman on the spot, I remember its introduction, it can release fog, and it is a good thing to escape.

But until the rune paper burned out, I didn't see the shadow of the fog.

Fake, Chen Hao was so angry that he smashed his toes again. The old wound added to the new wound, just like sprinkling salt on the wound, the young man screamed in pain, begging for mercy with tears, saying that the talisman was not fake, but it could not exert its strength on Wudao Mountain.

And this kind of thing?

I took out a Tianyang talisman, and I really couldn't release five thunders.

The old woodcutter thought we were making trouble, and said in the hut, you two babies, I can't sleep if I toss, what do you have to say quickly, and leave quickly after asking.

I didn't dare to toss anymore, and walked to the door of the hut, and I wanted to go in, but it was dark inside, so I stopped at the door and said, "Grandpa, I have lost my rabbit fur hat, and now I hear the white fox crying every night."

The old woodcutter said impatiently when he heard this, and went back to find your daughter-in-law.

I was a little speechless, I didn't know if the crying I heard when I went up the mountain counted, but if so, it had been two days now.

Fauber said that the female corpse was coming to pick me up, but who knows when it would come.

He hurriedly asked, old man, what is the origin of the white fox, and I didn't provoke it, why do you want to harm me?

Lao Qiao came out of the house, looked at me and said, she has some relationship with the corpse clan, about four hundred years ago, at that time, your wife had been injured by the catastrophe, the status of the corpse clan had slipped, and she was surrounded and suppressed by decency, and the strong man of the Yang cultivation line was bewildered by a white fox at this time, betrayed the corpse clan, and united with the Xuanmen to severely damage the corpse clan, if it wasn't for your wife's absence at that time, you may not be able to see her now.

A strong man in the Yang cultivation lineage? Is it the ex-husband of the female corpse? I felt a little uncomfortable, no wonder Fauber said he was afraid that I would repeat the mistakes of the past.

The old woodcutter continued to say that after that battle, the corpse clan's Yang cultivation line was completely betrayed, and the Yin cultivation line survived until he found the Yin land in Shiao Mountain, and he did not survive until now.

I panicked in my heart, but I still couldn't hold back, and asked the old woodcutter if the Yang cultivator who betrayed the corpse clan was the husband of the female corpse.

The old woodcutter saw me clenching his fists, his face was flushed, and he laughed and said, at a young age, I still know that I am jealous, but don't worry, you must be her first husband, otherwise she would not protect you so much. As for that Yang cultivator, in fact, everyone knows who he is, but some people deliberately hide it, so it's okay if you don't know it now.

I don't care who he is, what I care about is that the female corpse doesn't have another husband. But the old woodcutter's words aroused my curiosity, since Yang Xiu had betrayed the corpse clan, why would Fu Bo and I still be recognized now?

Unless the Yang cultivator who betrayed the corpse clan at the beginning had great influence in Xuanmen, in order to make up for the uneasiness in his heart, he asked Xuanmen to recognize the Yang cultivation lineage of the corpse clan.

Who will have that much energy? It's still well known.

The old woodcutter patted me on the head, made me come back to my senses, and continued, Later, your wife caught the white fox, originally to kill her, but it turned out that she had the variable of the catastrophe, so she could only be sent to Wudao Mountain and imprisoned here.

What is a consequence variable? I asked curiously.

Cultivators, in the underworld, are the creation of heaven and earth, will be tolerated by the way of heaven, and will descend to the calamity, and only by surviving will they be imprinted with the mark of the way of heaven. When the old woodcutter said this, he suddenly stopped and said, Your current cultivation, it is too early to know this, and you will naturally have a sense in the future.

I was also confused, and seeing that he didn't want to talk about this topic, I pointed to the young man from the Soul Hook Gate and asked, Grandpa, that kid just now said a person, a corpse, and a ghost. What is the meaning?

The old woodcutter's brows tightened, his face instantly froze, and his face changed, and he drove me and Chen Hao to say, go, you have too many problems with this baby, don't talk to me here. Leave him behind, and I'll send you down the mountain.

When the young man heard that he was going to leave him behind, he wept and begged me to take him away.

Hooking the soul gate to do things for the underworld, he was able to hook Chen Hao's soul under the nose of Wu Laogou, it can be seen that the means are extraordinary, and naturally he can't let him out.

The old woodcutter pushed and shoved me, and kept me from speaking, and drove us all the way to the foot of the mountain, but instead of the way we came, he went down the other side of the mountain. I didn't see the white fox on the way.

When he went out of the battle, the old woodcutter hesitated and said, remember to bring your daughter-in-law's things with you when you go back, don't lose them, this may save your life. Remember, when I go back, I'm telling your daughter-in-law that she owes me two favors from Wudaoshan.

The old woodcutter's guidance was undoubtedly a way to live, and I nodded without much thought. It's just that I didn't think that a few years later, these two favors almost killed the female corpse.

I went out of the formation, in front of which was another mountain next to me, and at the same time avoided the people from Bagua Town, I was very curious, and deliberately made a big circle, passing by the foot of the mountain, and found that they were all the same in the mountains except for the different directions, and the positions were not bad at all.

Chen Hao said, these five mountains are really magical, you say that there will not be five identical old woodcutters living on them?

His whimsy startled me. The mountain is the same mountain, will the person be the same?

I was curious, but I didn't dare to enter other mountains, otherwise I would cause some trouble, and the gains outweighed the losses.

When I arrived in the town, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, and Chen Hao asked me to see if the pawnshop was open, and to shoot the Soul Gathering Flag as soon as possible.

Under his guidance, I quickly found the store, which was hidden in a small alley, very inconspicuous. Seeing that the door was open, I walked in.

There was a dark red counter on the side of the door, and behind it sat an old man with gray hair, wearing reading glasses, reading a book by the light.

Because it's selling things from the Soul Hook Gate, I don't know how to speak.

When the old man saw me standing in front of the counter, he raised his eyelids and asked, "Little friend, what do you have to sell?"

I was a little weak-hearted, and lowered my voice and said, "Grandpa, do you accept the looted things here?"

Nervous, I pressed my hands on the counter and poked my head out, eager to lean into his ear and say this.

The old man looked at my hand with a solemn gaze and asked, "Do you want to sell it?"

When I looked down, I found that I was holding a small wooden axe in my hand, pondering it along the way, and inadvertently put it on the counter, and when I heard the words, I hurriedly took it back, hid it behind and shook my head and said no.

Oh, when the old man heard that it was not, his face was not disappointed, but a lot more relaxed. Let me show him something.

I glanced towards the door, a little hesitant. When the old man saw that I was mysterious, he became interested, put down the book in his hand and said, "If you take it out, what happens here, no one else will know except you and me."

I squatted under the counter, avoiding the old man's sight, and Chen Hao stretched out a hand and sent the Soul Gathering Flag out.

When I got my hand, I hurriedly stood up, and when I looked up, I found the old man lying on the counter, looking straight at me.

Grandpa, I subconsciously shouted, and I don't know if he saw Chen Hao.

The old man answered, looked at the Soul Gathering Flag in my hand and said, There was a lot of trouble in the town last night, saying that a disciple was missing from the Soul Hook Gate, and your flag looks like that missing disciple.
