Chapter 119: Greeting Relatives

I found that some of the rooms were still bright, could there be ghosts living here?

I cautiously leaned over, but found that there were no ghosts in those rooms, and the so-called light was all emitted by the traces of sigils on the ground.

The whole room seemed to have someone painted the ground full of sigils, and I had never seen these sigils, and I didn't know which sect they belonged to.

It suddenly occurred to me that in the story of the eighth master, the things that came ashore bit all the beasts in Lao Qingtan Town to death, and Daoist Liu Qing also said that those things were not just to blend in with the crowd, but also for other purposes, could it be that these talismans were just to deal with those things?

I pushed open the door and walked in, and found that not only the ground was drawn, but the whole room, and the corners and corners were hidden with these sigils, and I didn't know what the purpose was.

Just in the water, it glows faintly.

I was just about to go out, but I found that red dots appeared in the distance of Lao Qingtan Street, and those red dots were not one, but like fireflies, forming a line and slowly moving this way.

I hurriedly closed the door and hid behind the wall, tensing my nerves.

The red dots slowly approached, and I was underwater, and gradually I heard the sound of gongs and drums.

I looked cautiously over there, and saw a procession at the end of the street, dressed in red, beating gongs and drums, and the so-called red dots all looked like red lanterns. And every time I struck the gong, I could even see the water waves next to the gong and drum, and then the sound of the gong instantly reached my ears.

There seemed to be dozens of people in this procession, two people in a row, and a red sedan chair in the middle.

In this way, this turned out to be a welcoming procession.

Could it be that water ghosts are also married?

As the team approached, I saw that the so-called lantern was just an ornament, and instead of a candle was placed in the middle of the hollowed out lantern, but a fish glowing red, swimming in the lantern.

These water ghosts are all wearing red clothes of the Republic of China, men's long gowns, women's Luo skirts, their faces are white, their lips are red, and their faces are expressionless.

Seeing them approaching, I hurriedly squatted down and hidden, but at the moment of squatting, the water waves in the distance lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and the bride inside was not wearing a red hijab, but was wearing a red flower, and I actually found that I still knew this bride.

It is the sister I want to save, Xu Yaru.

I crouched down, and although I didn't feel like a physical body, I still felt incredulous, even a little surprised and delighted.

Surprised, why is the bride her, and who is she marrying? Happily, when I saw Xu Yaru's face just now, she was not as ruthless as those water ghosts, and there was still a trace of gloom on her face. This shows that in this hidden place, she has no abnormality, and she still has humanity.

Hearing the welcoming procession slowly moving away, I stood up again, looked at the welcoming procession, walked in the distance, began to turn, and actually walked towards the center of the lake.

And I look at the two water ghosts walking at the end of the greeting procession, and the movements seem to be very familiar.

At the moment of turning, I finally saw the side faces of the last two people, which turned out to be Su Xuanke and Senior Sister Xuanji.

It's just that at this time, their faces are as white as water ghosts.

Did they also die after entering the water?

But Sister Xu Yaru has been dead for so long and hasn't become like that, why did they change instead?

In other words, they just used some kind of Dao technique to become like water ghosts, disguise themselves, and enter the interior smoothly.

Now that I couldn't expose myself, I naturally needed to avoid Su Xuanke, and I slowly swam towards the center of the reservoir from the other direction.

I don't know how long I swam, anyway, the ghost didn't feel tired, and finally arrived at the center of the reservoir, only to see there, surrounded by more than ten meters of aquatic plants, emitting a faint fluorescence, shaking at the bottom of the reservoir, through these aquatic plants, I finally saw that there was a tall earth building in front.

This circular earthen building is about dozens of meters high, there are several floors, and this circular earthen building extends for 100 meters on both sides, and the whole is like an underwater fortress.

The lower floors are sealed, except for the top floor, which has windows open to the outside.

I saw that there was no door around this circular tulou, and I guess I was right behind the gate now, so I hid in the roots of the water weeds and slowly moved to the side.

After walking for a while, I finally saw a gate in front of me, and there were two guards standing on both sides of the gate, wearing small coats from the Republic of China period, with their chests exposed, just like what they played on TV.

And on the gatehouse, there are also red colored balls, it seems that today is really the day of the water ghost's wedding.

I have to enter this tulou, I don't want Sister Xu Yaru to marry the water ghost here. But looking at the round tulou, apart from here, you can only enter through the upper window, and I don't know if the top of the tulou is hollowed out, or from there?

But I haven't heard of a tulou here before, and the owner of this place, when he was building, must have considered it, I am afraid that the window or the top must have set up something to warn the intruders.

Otherwise, there is no point in setting guards here.

Am I really going to break in?

I suddenly thought of the Soul Scattering Pill, the Soul Scattering Pill is effective for the soul, so I thought that at this time, after taking it, these guards would definitely not see me.

I took out the bottle in my pocket, opened it, and the water filled it instantly, then I took out one and put it in my mouth.

After a while, it melted into my soul, and my whole consciousness began to blur again, I hurriedly put away the bottle, silently recited the protector charm, and then tentatively walked to the front door.

I walked to the door, and the two guards really turned a blind eye to me, proving that the Soul Scattering Pill really worked.

I walked into the tulou and found that it was lit up with lights, just like the world, and unlike the team that greeted the relatives just now, the water ghosts here had normal complexions, chatting when they were not busy, if they weren't underwater, they really couldn't tell the difference, these people were all water ghosts.

I know the time when the Soul Scattering Pill works, I have to hurry up now, imitate the people here, first, I have to find a few similar clothes.

I saw that on the second floor of the tulou, some of the doors were hung with clothes, and it was estimated that these water ghosts were still living underwater as in the world.

I sneaked up to the second floor, and while the water ghosts were preparing for the wedding, no one noticed anything unusual.

I secretly took my clothes, put them on the outside, and then went downstairs to the shadowy place and listened to the water ghosts gossiping.

One of the aunts sitting next to her said while weaving colored balls: "Have you seen the bride?" He looks very handsome, I heard that he is newly dead, and he has never deserved a secret marriage, and when the master said that he would reward Zhang for stewardship, not to mention how happy he was. ”

It seems that gossip is really human nature, even after death.

A fat aunt next to her answered: "Although I didn't see it, I also heard about it, and they all said it was beautiful, and when the sedan chair passed by just now, I didn't dare to stop and take a look, for fear of offending Steward Zhang." ”

The aunt just now smiled and said, "What are you afraid of, Steward Zhang is very good, so he won't be careful?" It is said that he had a crush on one decades ago, but unfortunately it didn't attract him, but a man came up. ”

Hearing this, I suddenly thought, is what they are talking about, is it the flower boat in 65 years?

Could it be that the flower boat is not a funeral, but to pick up people?

But I didn't want the person in charge to go up at that time.

At this time, the fat aunt then asked: "You are familiar with Steward Zhang, wait until we finish making up the flower balls, can you take me up to see the bride?" ”

The aunt smiled: "This bride is in the new house on the third floor, and no one is stopping her, so you can go and see it if you want to." ”

Hearing this, I hurriedly turned around, this is not a place to stay for long.

In the past, after Xu Yaru's sister woke up, she said that the people here gave them delicious food every day, and wanted them to stay here, proving that the people here were just kind on the surface.

I have to take advantage of the fact that I haven't reacted now, and find Sister Xu Yaru first.

According to my estimate, Senior Sister Xuanji and they won't wait too long, they will do it, and when the time comes, I will take the opportunity to take my sister out.

From my aunt's words, I learned that the bride was on the third floor, so I ran to the third floor and saw that not far away, there was a big red flower hanging on the door, which was probably the new house.

While the effect of the Soul Scattering Pill has not yet dissipated, I have to go in first to check the situation, if Xu Yaru is the only one there, I will tell her directly, if there is anyone else, I have to find a way to lure that person away first.

I walked to the front of the new house, and through the crack in the curtain, I saw that the bride was the only one in the new room, with her back to me.

I hurriedly slipped in, and before I could get in front of her, a voice came from behind: "Who are you?" ”

And this voice is familiar to me, because it is the voice of Sister Xu Yaru!
