"This! This is! That dream of mine has come true! ”

I watched the souls of the dead become scarecrows, they still had their old expressions, all the joys and sorrows on their faces, and the two fluorites shimmering under the starry sky, and then I noticed that there were many stars in the sky, and it was daytime.

The girl said to me, "No, what you saw before was not a dream, but real. ”

The girl explained to me: "This town is cursed by him, and all the ghosts in the town are scarecrows by day and ghosts by night. ”

"And what happened to my previous dream?" I asked.

The girl said, "He took some of your memories, and because of the lack of those memories, you feel like everything before you was a dream." ”

Take away my memory, this little trick dares to fiddle in front of me!

Knowing the truth, I took out and silently felt the Lu Yin in my body, everything that happened in the past will be recorded on the Lu Yin, and no one can clear the memory of the Lu Yin, unless the Lu Yin is boiled into Meng Po soup.

That day, I walked inside after entering the town, and slowly the sky began to darken, and the scarecrow in front of me suddenly began to move, and slowly, the scarecrow turned into a human form.

I was so surprised that I wanted to find someone to ask what was going on, but all of them instantly turned into scarecrows again, and before I could react, a blood-red scarecrow suddenly appeared in front of my eyes!

He struck me straight at me with lightning speed, stabbing me in the throat with a palm, and I reacted quickly and took a step back to dodge his fatal blow.

And I'm not to be outdone, since the other party has already made a move, it's not my style to fight back. 、

I slammed my right hand into the scarecrow's joint, and the blow was a hit, but it didn't come out of what I had imagined.

The scarecrow's body was very hard, and I was now a ghost herd strength, and I didn't hurt him in the slightest under the full blow, and I felt that my entire palm was numb.

The scarecrow reacted quickly, and the withered feet quickly swept towards the chest, and I couldn't dodge and was hit by him.

I was knocked to the ground, and the dragon abyss sword at my waist also fell to the side, and the scarecrow took advantage of the victory to pursue, only to see him leap up and step directly towards my head, his feet were so sharp, if he stepped on me, I would definitely be seriously injured and incapacitated.

I dodged his fatal blow on my side, but the scarecrow still refused to give up, determined to put me to death, and he kicked me in the head, and I instantly rolled over and took a few steps back, distancing myself from him.

I looked at him vigilantly, he still didn't say a word, this kind of person is the most terrible, because he has only one purpose, which is to kill you.

The Dragon Yuan Sword was left beside the scarecrow, and he originally wanted to fight alongside it.

In addition to the steps and swordsmanship that I haven't learned yet, the rest are some talisman tools that can't be used directly, and if these things are used directly, the first thing to bear the brunt of it must be myself.

Without any reluctance, I quickly bowed down under the fierce attack of the scarecrow, and the scarecrow knocked me to the ground and stepped towards my head, and I, very cooperatively, closed my eyes, at this time, who else could appear to save me?

But I never expected that the Longyuan Sword would suddenly fly up and stab the scarecrow, and the scarecrow didn't expect a sword to react like this when no one was controlling it.

Of course, I didn't expect it either.

Long Yuan stabbed the scarecrow in the chest with a sword, directly piercing it, and the scarecrow was injured, but this did not seem to affect its movements.

The scarecrow looked at Long Yuan and completely ignored me, for a long time.

The scarecrow came to me, took this memory from me, and trapped me in a dream.

Then I fainted, and then my consciousness appeared in the park, and as for why I was outside the town, I learned from the footage recorded on the road guide that I had walked there on my own.

If I'm not mistaken, it was Long Yuan who saved me, but the scarecrow still didn't want to let me go, so he trapped me in a dream and left me to fend for myself.

But why didn't he just kill me? It was clear that the Long Yuan Sword had not caused him substantial damage.

I didn't notice at the time that in a corner there was a girl in white standing coldly at the blood-red scarecrow.

I took Long Yuan, held it tightly in my hand, and said silently, "Thank you seniors for saving your life!" ”

Long Yuan didn't reply, of course, now is not the time to chat, who knows when that scarecrow will come out.

I turned my head to the girl and said, "I've heard that there have been two scarecrows in this town, and you, I'm afraid, are the other one!" ”

I pointed to the little girl and said, the whole town is cursed, and no one in the town has been spared, and how can she, a little girl, know so much?

However, the little girl shook her head and said, "No, the other scarecrow only appeared many years later, and then he ate it, which is why he has such a great ability to curse the town." ”

I listened to the little girl's words and thought, 'Many years later? Could it be that the other scarecrow is the one next to the highway on earth! ’

This! It's really incredible, a ghost who can eat the soul of the dead, I really don't know what kind of torture he has experienced in the human world to have such a big resentment.

In my impression, only a ghost-like existence has the ability to devour other souls, does he also have the strength of a ghost-mother?

No, you can't wade through this troubled water!

The water is too deep, and it is very likely that you will drown yourself, so hurry away as to get out.

I turned around and was about to leave, when the little girl said, "Why are you going?" ”

I said, "Get out of here and go to the next place." ”

"Please help him, and help the souls here, if this continues, they will all die!" The girl said to me with tears in her voice.

I didn't turn around, but said, "What does it matter to me about their life and death, since you want to help them, why don't you go to the city to report the crime." ”

After I said this, the girl couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, report the crime." If the City God or Hades really took care of it, how could this tragedy happen! The soul of an entire town has been ruined by an ethereal rumor! ”

I turned to look at the girl and said, "Yo, it seems that there is a story, but I'm not interested in hearing it right now." ”

What a story to listen to, it is important to save your life!

I ignored the girl's turn and left Straw Town.

I came to the outside of Straw Town, looking at the stone tablet that said Straw Town, and when I was about to leave, a figure suddenly floated at the stone tablet, and I looked towards the phantom, it was a blood-red scarecrow! ·

I was on alert and ready to evacuate.

But the blood-red scarecrow slowly turned into the appearance of a modern teenager, and he said to me, "Senior, long time no see. ”

Predecessor?

I looked at the floating phantom carefully, and thought about it in my mind for a long time, but I didn't think where I had seen this in front of me.

The young man saw my doubts and said, "The flowers in the south of the city have not bloomed, and I am in the straw arms." Back then, that park, you were the one who pulled me out of the endless killing. ”

I was shocked, I didn't expect that the other blood-red scarecrow was really him!

The man who was gutted out of the world before and made into a scarecrow!

I didn't let my guard down and said to him, "Aren't you swallowed by another scarecrow?" How did it end up here? ”

He said helplessly: "Hey...... He swallowed my spirit and resentment, but he sealed my consciousness here, and I don't know how often I woke up, but this time it was okay to meet you. ”

"Can the soul be separated from the consciousness?" I questioned, because I had the impression that the soul was consciousness.

The young man nodded, and he said, "Yes, in the yang world, the body is the carrier of the soul, and in the underworld, the soul is the carrier of consciousness. Because my spirit body contains too much resentment, he took away my spirit body, and thus his strength has greatly increased, and he is in the current situation. I still exist because he hasn't completely killed my spirit, and when my spirit is killed, my consciousness is gone. ”

I said, "Then your life is really bumpy, you were killed in the yang world, and your spirit body was taken away in the underworld. ”

"Senpai!" The boy said to me, and suddenly, he knelt down at me and said, "Please help me, and help this innocent soul, that scarecrow wants to destroy this town!" ”

I said bluntly, "I don't want to wade into this troubled water." ”

The boy looked at me suspiciously and said, "Senior! You weren't like that when you were in the world, when you were jealous and hateful, and your flesh was ......strong."

"But now I'm dead! I'm not as great as you say, and I don't have the strength to help you. I interrupted him and said to him.

I turned to leave, when the boy shouted at me, "Senior! As long as you can save the town, I am willing to sacrifice to you with my consciousness! Please, save the town! The town, the people in the town, it's really nice! ”

When I heard the word sacrifice, I was amazed that the boy could make such a sacrifice for that town.

Sacrifice, as the name suggests, is the willingness of one party to be an accessory or tonic to the other.

But I've only heard of the sacrifice of the soul or the body, but not of the sacrifice of consciousness.

Of course, I wasn't interested in his sacrifice, so I chose to keep going.

"I need the sacrifice of his consciousness!"

I was walking when suddenly a voice appeared in my head, and it didn't know where it came from, or from nowhere.

I looked around and couldn't find the source of the sound, which continued to ring in my head.

"I need a sacrifice of consciousness to nourish my dragon soul consciousness!"

I paused, recalling the words that had just come to mind.

The dragon soul, the only one who can match the dragon soul.

I took off the Longyuan Sword and said to it, "Senior, are you talking?" ”

The voice sounded again: "It's me, I need to sacrifice." ”

"Why do you need a sacrifice?" I asked.

Long Yuan replied: "Last time you used Yin Qi to activate my consciousness, but my consciousness is incomplete, and the dragon soul is incomplete, plus the last time I saved you, I'm afraid my consciousness will fall into a deep sleep again in the near future, so I need a consciousness sacrifice to complete my broken consciousness and retrieve the scattered dragon soul!" ”

I immediately made a decision and said, "Okay, since the seniors need it, then this trip to the muddy water, even if it is a quagmire, I will go down!" ”

I pulled out the Longyuan Sword from behind my back and came to the young man, who looked at me hopefully and said, "Senior, you? ”

I placed the Long Yuan Sword in front of him and said, "Sacrifice." ”

The boy looked at me, and without the slightest doubt, immediately began the sacrifice of consciousness.

His consciousness will be used as a tonic to complete Long Yuan's consciousness, and after the consciousness of Long Yuan's sword is completed, the power of the sword will increase, and my strength will also increase relatively speaking.

I saw that the young man's consciousness was attached to the Long Yuan Sword, and the Long Yuan Sword slowly began to tremble, and then there was a burst of dragon groans!

The boy's consciousness was gone, the dragon's groans had stopped, the sacrifice was over, and it was time for me to fulfill my promise.

I picked up the Long Yuan Sword and said softly, "How is the consciousness of the seniors restored?" ”

Long Yuan replied: "It has recovered about eighty percent. ”

I asked, "Are the seniors willing to fight alongside Xiao Ke?" ”

Long Yuan replied: "This is the only time, not an example." ”

I smiled helplessly: "It seems that my predecessors still haven't recognized me, but I won't be discouraged." ”

I held the Seven Star Dragon Yuan in my hand and slowly walked towards the Straw Town, I looked at the scarecrows in the town at this time, each of them seemed to be casting a hopeful gaze at me, and when they became straws, they also seemed to have their own consciousness.

I came to a scarecrow and stroked his face, and I felt his emotions. Panic, anxiety, and despair.

It's a town devoid of life or hope, and if I'm not mistaken, they know exactly what is going on in their town, and when they turn back into ghosts, they still remember what happened when they became scarecrows.

But none of them dared to speak out, and even no one dared to resist or run away.

"You're back." The girl appeared in front of me, I nodded, and said, "I'm here to fulfill my promise." ”

The girl said, "Anyway, thank you for your help!" ”

I walked forward and said, "Thank you for the kid who gave his life for the town." ”

"Do you need me to do anything to kill him directly?"

I asked, and even though I say that, I don't necessarily beat him from the last time I met. But with the help of the Dragon Yuan Sword this time, my strength will definitely increase a little.

I took a cursory look at Hanmei's swordsmanship before, and naturally I also remembered one and a half moves, although I didn't learn the essence, but the movements were understood.

"In the middle of the town, there is a wide rice field, and in the middle of the field there is a thatched house, and he is in that thatched house. Around the house, there were scarecrows he had tied. He's sucking up the yin energy of the town's revenants through those scarecrows, and if I'm not mistaken, he's tying your scarecrow right now. Once you tie it, you will be cursed as well. ”

I looked at the girl in shock and couldn't help but ask, "He made it a witchcraft!" ”

The girl shook her head and said, "I don't know where he learned it, I never saw him do anything like this while he was still alive. ”

I fell into deep thought, I didn't expect that the underworld could still use witchcraft, it seems that there are still many mysteries in the underworld.

"Did he take my hair?" I asked, and the girl nodded.

Witchcraft requires not only a medium, but also something on the body of the caster, such as hair and blood.

Perhaps, he didn't plan to let me go in the first place, he was for the ghost herd-level yin qi on my body!

The girl said, "Once the scarecrow is made, he can curse you, and if you are in the town, you will become a scarecrow." ”

I'm so scared!

"Lead the way." I said, so far, I can only do my best, but I don't know if if I become like that, will I also be like them, silently accept fate.

Probably not, because I'm not one to rest on my laurels.

The girl said in front of her complainingly: "All this is my fault, if I hadn't shown up while I was alive, I hadn't agreed to his request, none of this would have happened." ”

I whispered from behind, "I'm not interested in your affairs right now, you tell me how to defeat him." ”

The girl paused and said, "His yin energy is not stored in his body, but in the surrounding scarecrow and that thatched house, if you destroy all the scarecrows and thatched houses, his yin energy will dissipate, and all the dead souls in the town will return to normal." ”

A fire burned!

That's the first thought that pops into my head.

I also acted on this idea.

I took out the rune paper, brushes, cinnabar, etc. and began to draw the rune seal, this battle, the fire charm is indispensable, and the thunderstorm charm also needs some.

I'm already comfortable with these basic rune paintings, but if I use the strength of the ghost herd, I don't know if I can draw the high-level thunder talisman 'Heavenly Thunder Fu'.

There's no time to experiment right now, and I can't afford to delay for a moment, and that guy might not turn me into a scarecrow even a minute late.

Seven runes, five fiery talismans, and two thunderstorm talismans, I looked at the souls around me who had turned into straws, and it seemed that today was destined to be a holy feast of fire!

Master once said that drawing talismans is a kind of origin power to peek into the heavens and the earth, and then leap it onto the paper.

It seems that although the two worlds of yin and yang are different worlds, they use the same source power, and I am afraid that there is also thunder in the underworld.

The girl led me to a path, and she said, "I will go through this path to the rice field, and there will be two scarecrows blocking the way, and he made it to stop me." ”

I held Long Yuan in my hand, stepped on the path, and said, "Follow me." ”

From the beginning, I felt that the yin qi in this girl's body was very rare, maybe she had never cultivated yin qi at all, because Meng Po said that only rich people can cultivate this thing.

And she knew about it, she must have been here before, but her dissuasion was unsuccessful.

Two scarecrows appeared in front of me, and the Dragon Yuan Sword in my hand was already hungry and thirsty.
