Liu Baiwen took out a bamboo slip, which had been oxidized and blackened, but the handwriting on it was clearer, but Liu Baiwen obviously didn't mean to show me the bamboo slip, opened it and looked at it carefully and said: "These skeleton ghosts first appeared a thousand years ago. ”

"According to the records of the ancestors, those skeleton ghosts were not skeletons at first, but women who were summoned to the Jianiao River by strange powers, then dug their own eyes and threw themselves into the river to feed the fish, and finally threw themselves into the river to commit suicide."

"Dig your own eyes and throw yourself into the river to feed the fish." I was a little surprised and said, "Are all those people demon-possessed?" ”

Liu Baiwen shook his head, "Because the ancestors only came to settle here hundreds of years ago, what is recorded is also a legend, but the ancestors did go to investigate back then, and happened to meet a woman who committed suicide, although she was later seriously injured by a skeleton ghost, but it was still confirmed that the woman who committed suicide was not possessed by a ghost." ”

"Since they weren't possessed by demons, why would those women gouge out their eyes before committing suicide, it's not at all logical." I said a little depressed, and suddenly thought of the Aokigahara Forest, a famous suicide holy place in Japan, and I heard that people who go there will commit suicide, even if they don't have suicidal thoughts, they will eventually commit suicide, just like some kind of spell, is it the same with the Bird River?

Liu Baiwen also nodded: "It's unreasonable, but it's the truth," Liu Baiwen continued: "Don't worry about the reasons why those women committed suicide, killing those skeleton ghosts is the most important thing." ”

Well, I agreed a little helplessly, in fact, I want to find out the reason and let those skeleton ghosts get rid of reincarnation, and it is not necessarily a good deed to directly destroy so many unjust souls, but the time has been too long, there is no way to investigate, and those skeleton ghosts are even more likely to kill people when they see them, and there is no possibility of communication at all.

"Let's talk about the weakness of those skeleton ghosts," I am most concerned about this, everything has weaknesses, otherwise wouldn't it be invincible?

Liu Baiwen looked at the bamboo slips again, and then said, "These skeleton ghosts don't have eyes. ”

"Nonsense, skeletons are skeletons of bones, how can they have eyes." I was very speechless about Liu Baiwen's words, and what I said was nonsense.

"You don't understand what I mean, I mean that even if they become ghosts, those skeletons can't see anything, what they lack is not physical, but they lose their vision from their souls,"

Hearing Liu Baiwen's words, I immediately said, "Could it be related to the fact that they gouged out their eyes before committing suicide?" ”

Although many ghosts are invisible when they die, they can regain their vision after becoming ghosts, because they are only missing in their organs, but their souls are intact, and even if they show ghosts with damaged eyes, they can actually see ghosts, otherwise how can they find those who they want to see.

Unless it is a person who is born blind, he will still not see things when he dies, and those women who commit suicide are obviously not congenitally blind, and they die and become skeletons and ghosts but can't see anything, which must be related to gouging out eyes.

It is likely that gouging out the eyes of the souls was a ritual that made those women lose the eyes of their souls.

"No, when I went to the Bird River just now, those skeleton ghosts quickly spotted me, if I couldn't see it, how did they find me hiding in the bushes?" I immediately thought of the skeleton ghost who had appeared out of nowhere, and who had assassinated me with unmistakable precision.

Liu Baiwen rolled up the bamboo slips, and then said to me: "Although those skeleton ghosts have no eyes, they can hear, and their soul power is fused with the water of the Jianiao River, as long as you are in the water, you can be found immediately. ”

"Don't you understand, I was on the shore, and I was hiding in the bushes."

"I'm not done yet."

Liu Baiwen paused for a moment and continued: "Although you are in the bushes, but because you are close to the river bank, any movement can cause the river to tremble, and you can be found by this trembling, you should know the frog, the frog can only see moving things, if the prey does not move, the frog can't see at all, although those skeleton ghosts don't have eyes, but the reason is the same as the frog, if you don't move on the shore and don't make a sound, they won't be able to find you, but once you have movement, plus it's very close to them, Then you'll be spotted right away. ”

"One more point," Liu Baiwen thought about it for a moment and then said: "The yin qi of those skeleton ghosts has been fused with the river water, and the water vapor evaporated by the river water is likely to become the eyeliner of those skeleton ghosts, and you will definitely touch the water vapor on the shore, which is equivalent to being discovered." ”

"I'll go, it's not so perverted, if that's the case, we won't be able to get to the skeleton ghosts, those guys will attack from a distance."

Liu Baiwen nodded thoughtfully: "You're right, so we need a special talisman, this talisman is called the Bone Talisman, although it has no offensive and defensive capabilities, but it can turn people into a skeleton, of course, the appearance of this skeleton can only be perceived by ghosts." ”

"Those skeleton ghosts will not attack their own kind, and we will be considered to be the same kind when we become skeletons in their perception, and they will not attack us, and when the time comes, we will wait for the opportunity to try to destroy all those skeleton ghosts."

"That's a big project." Think about the thousands of skeleton ghosts, even if we have the bone talisman, we can only sneak attack one by one, and we can't alarm the other skeleton ghosts, so it will definitely take a lot of time to exterminate them.

"There's no way to do it," Liu Baiwen took out a thick pile of yellow paper, and then said, "Each Bone Talisman can only be used for half an hour, and we need a lot of Bone Talismans, so I need three days to prepare, and we will meet here in three days." ”

"Okay." I left the black wooden house after I promised Liu Baiwen, as long as I have the bone talisman, no matter whether I can destroy those skeleton ghosts or not, at least I can catch the bloodscale ghost doll in the Jianiao River, as long as I catch nine, I can cure Xiao Feng, I want to ask, why did he and Xiao Qiang sacrifice their lives to help me.

I didn't doubt their motives, but I wanted to know what they really had to do with me, and who was behind them.

Since I agreed to go to the Jianiao River after three days, I just took advantage of this time to look for Qin, Qin? He disappeared when he was visiting his house, and later Liu Kairong impersonated him, and he knew a lot about him, I suspect Qin? was arrested by Liu Kairong, so I decided to go to the old house where Liu Kairong lived before his death.
