Chapter 12: The Legend of the Damned
I sighed, thinking that it could be solved, it really scared me to death, and now I am scared when I think about it, and I don't know where I got the courage to come in with Ji Ran at that time.
"Zhou Xuran, if you hadn't come in time, we really wouldn't have imagined the consequences, to be honest, I was a little desperate in the end, I didn't expect you to rush over."
"I saw the message you sent me, I didn't worry about you and rushed over, but fortunately, when I came to this factory just now, I met that Granny Tang, and she told me that you were here."
"Zhou Xuran, no matter what, thanks to your help today, I Ji Ran owe you a favor."
We walked out of the abandoned factory and saw the crowd guarding the door.
"Xiao Ran, it's good that you're okay, I'm worried about it outside." Ji Ran's mother stepped forward to grab Ji Ran and check if he was injured.
Compared with Ji Ran's mother, his father said to him calmly: "Have you solved the matter inside, there won't be anything else." ”
Ji Ran looked at Zhou Xuran on the side: "There shouldn't be any more problems. This place used to be the island of infant corpses, and there were many babies buried in the ground of this abandoned factory, anyway, this abandoned factory can't be used, for the sake of insurance, I think we should build a big grave for these dead children, and then find monks to spend the undead, which can be regarded as accumulating yin virtue. ”
Ji Ran's father agreed with him and said to the factory director next to him: "You can do this matter, do what he says, the sooner the better." After we go out for a while, you stay here tonight and bring more security guards over, if it's okay tonight, observe for a few days, and report to me in time. This place is completely closed from now on, and no one can enter it casually. ”
Ji Ran's father arranged the work and politely said to Zhou Xuran: "Mr. Zhou, today's matter is really troublesome to you, I didn't expect to bother you to come over and run in person." I don't know how to thank you. We've already arranged a place to rest, so let's take a break. There is also the matter of cooperative development here, I don't know if you are interested. ”
Ji Ran's father is really a businessman and very pragmatic, the businessman is really profitable, just after helping him solve the matter of this factory, he immediately thought of the joint development, and did not miss any opportunity to make money.
"Let's talk about development when we have time." Zhou Xuran was as cold as usual.
Ji Ran's mother hurriedly played a round and said: "Everyone is tired today, and the body is important, I have arranged a place for everyone to rest, and the work matter will be temporary today, and we will have time to talk slowly tomorrow."
We came to the best hotel in the county, and according to Ji Ran, we booked the best three rooms. I feel more satisfied with the room, I can finally rest, I just want to lie on the bed and sleep beautifully.
The doorbell rang, and I was extremely irritable, who hates disturbing people's dreams so much.
I reluctantly got up to open the door, and saw Zhou Xuran and Ji Ran appear at my door.
"Judging by the expression, you don't seem to welcome us." Ji Ran asked.
"It's so obvious. Knowingly, aren't you tired? You can't wait until tomorrow. ”
However, the two people at the door were so discerning, and it was obvious that these two people had no intention of leaving, and naturally came to my room and sat on the sofa.
I felt too lazy to pay attention to them, so I just lay down on the bed: "Hurry up and say something, I'm too tired today, I want to rest early." Zhou Xuran looked at me with contempt, I didn't care, anyway, I was numb with contempt.
"Hey, can you pay attention to your image, I don't even bother to talk about you, you are a girl anyway, how can you lie on the bed and talk to us so frivolously in front of the two of us men, and you don't pay attention to the impact." After Ji Ran finished speaking, he kicked my quilt with his foot.
I got up quickly: "What, you actually use frivolity to say me, Ji Ran, you are the commotion, I'm not undressed, I'm tired and can't lie down, and you two big men casually enter my girl's room at night, and you two big men casually enter my girl's room at night, and you don't pay attention to the impact." ”
Although I didn't want to admit it, I felt embarrassed to be told by Ji Ran, and I didn't know why I was a little too casual in front of the two of them, I wasn't like this, I felt that I really needed to pay attention to my image, I folded the quilt and sat down looking at the two of them, obviously my very serious appearance made the two of them a little uncomfortable.
"Zhou Xuran, where have you been these days, and there is no news at all?" When I blurted out these words, I felt a little regretful, after all, Zhou Xuran and Ji Ran were different, and sure enough, I saw Ji Ran looking at me with a wicked smile.
It's just that I didn't expect Zhou Xuran to answer me so seriously. : I went back to the old mansion of the Zhou family, mainly to check the family tree and family records, and wanted to know more about the doomsday curse. ”
"Do you have any new discoveries?"
"Yes, I've rearranged the scattered records, and the Doomsday Curse can be traced back thousands of years. When I was a child, I once heard the elders tell this legend, saying that thousands of years ago, the Zhou family, the Yang family, and the Ji family also had a family guardian of the "Ancient God Book", and later the guardian of a family was bewitched, opened the "Ancient God Book", and secretly cultivated the chapters in it in a vain attempt to gain eternal life. As everyone knows, the "Book of Ancient Gods" is both good and evil, and the person secretly practiced the evil art of the upper part, but unexpectedly, the evil spirit invaded the body, lost his mind, and the evil spirit possessed the body, and began to do evil. The time for the remaining three families to discover it was too late. When they fought together, they snatched back the Ancient Divine Book, the upper part was destroyed, and the remaining part was incomplete.
The three major families used the remnants of the "Ancient Divine Book" to seal the evil spirit, but the sealing of mana was only temporary, and they had not found a way to completely eliminate the evil spirit. Because of poor care, this family has also been cursed, and every hundred years evil spirits surge, evil spirits appear, and the descendants of this family have been burdened with a generational curse to destroy evil spirits. ”
"You're all hearing the legends of your elders, and everything that has been handed down is not necessarily true. Is there any reliable record? I couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, I went back this time and found the real record, but it was a hundred years apart and it was somewhat damaged. The most recent appearance of evil spirits should be in the Republic of China era. The record says that the evil spirit appeared in the world, and the extreme yin girl was born. With the help of evil spirits, the evil spirits absorb the grievances of the unjust souls everywhere in order to be reborn, first manifesting their bodies with qi, and finally transforming into human form, sealing the evil spirits must be compatible with magic weapons, summoning the divine book, and at the same time paying the same price. As for the cost, it is unknown. ”
"In this way, the remaining Book of the Ancient Gods is the key." Ji Ran asked.
"I guess, I can only speculate. In the current situation, we must not only keep an eye on the elimination of the evil qi fueled by the evil spirits, but also find the remnants of the Ancient Divine Book and the way to seal the evil spirits. ”
"By the way, I suddenly remembered that time when I was in the swimming pool, I once saw a pair of floating eyes. It is very likely that it is an evil spirit body that has not yet been formed. I said to Zhou Xuran with some horror.
"There's a possibility, so we don't have much time, so we're sure to seal it before it's completely formed, preventing the reunion from appearing and causing a disaster."
Ji Ran looked at me thoughtfully: "What's the matter with the rune paper you pasted on Granny Tang's body." ”
"Didn't I tell you, it was given to me by your uncle? He only gave me one, and he said he would use it when it mattered. ”
"Where's the rune paper?" Zhou Xuran asked with concern.
"I used it on Granny Tang's body, and the talisman paper and the evil qi on Granny Tang turned into ashes together."
"I feel that the rune paper is very likely to be related to the Ancient Divine Book, Master Fang gave you that paper, does it mean that it has something to do with your Yang family. The heirloom of our Zhou family is the ancient dagger, the Ji family is the compass, and your Yang family. ”
"Our Yang family, I don't know, there shouldn't be. We are not as great as your family's great business, and there is nothing ancestral heirlooms. ”
"Think about it, Yinglin, do you have any particularly precious things in your family, or special ones left for you."
"I don't have any impressions, and I don't seem to have any of them. But when you say that, it's like my grandfather had a lot of ancient books, and I learned the words on the runes from those ancient books. But when my grandfather died, the books were gone, and my family couldn't find them for a long time. ”
Zhou Xuran thought thoughtfully: "Perhaps, there will be remnants or clues of the "Ancient Divine Book" in it, you can look for it again when you have time, and I will also send someone to investigate." ”
"Hmm." I nodded in agreement
"Yang Yinglin, what is the relationship between you and that Granny Tang, how did you know each other. I was in a hurry, and I didn't have time to ask you? Ji Ran asked curiously
"I met her once before, by chance."
"I've actually been here once before, and that time I came to attend my college roommate's wedding. I arrived a few days ago, and we had a small gathering of people in the dormitory, after all, everyone was quite busy after graduation, and we finally managed to spend time together, and we stayed at my roommate's sister's house. Her sister's child had just turned 3 years old, and it was the most interesting time, so we would tease the child a lot.
It's just that that night, such a lovely child suddenly started a fever, and he didn't have any energy at all. My roommate's sister sighed and said that the child was born weak, often fell ill, and often lost his soul.
I comforted her that when the child was frightened when he was young, it was common for the soul to be scared, and it would be fine if she screamed.
Her sister sighed and said, this child in her family is different, specially looking for someone to calculate, the eight characters have been weak since childhood, and the old people in the family say that this child is not easy to support, I am afraid that it is a child's life.
The grandfather and grandmother got up and said that they were going to Granny Tang to come over and help the child do the soul calling ceremony.
"Who is Granny Tang?" I couldn't help but ask my classmates.
"It's our goddess here. Her surname is Tang, and we all look for her about the spirits and gods here, and we call her Granny Tang. ”
I'm actually quite curious, curious about this granny soup, and I often hear about calling children souls, but this is the first time I've seen this soul ceremony.
I saw the child's grandparents come over with Granny Tang.
