Chapter Forty-Eight: Lost in the Mountains and Forests
It is said that Chen Xiaobraid and Lu Dagang got paid and returned to Coffin Village after solving a few things in the capital.
"Huh... Dad, where are you going? ”
I didn't want to just enter the house before I had time to say a word to my father, I saw Chen Laogou packing up his broken canvas bag and planning to go out of the house.
"You're back! Your Aunt Li came to the house just now, let me go over and help take care of things. ”
"Alas! Forget it, then I'll work hard with you! Pity your handsome and talented son, who didn't even have time to take a sip of hot tea when he got home. ”
The two joked a few words, and then rushed to Lao Li's house in the west of the village.
Before the two of them entered the door, they heard the cry of the daughter-in-law of the Li family in the house while standing in the courtyard.
"Woooooooooo......oo You're finally here, dog! Come and take a look, what's wrong with my Lao Li! ”
As soon as Chen Laogou entered the house, the daughter-in-law of the Li family hurriedly greeted her, and Chen Xiaobraid saw that Aunt Li's eyes were swollen from crying, and her face was still full of tears at this time.
"You know where he went last night?" Chen Laogou sat on the edge of the kang and took a look, and Lao Li's eyes were dull at this time, and his face was infatuated, which was completely different from the bold appearance on weekdays.
"Woooooooooo......oo My Lao Li went out for a drink last night... I didn't want to come back like this...... Woo woo he didn't pay me a word when I spoke, what's the matter! ”
"Aunt Li, don't cry yet, my uncle will definitely be fine, don't worry!"
At this time, the daughter-in-law of the Li family was worried that she would cry excessively and couldn't tell her words, so the pigtail saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to hand over the paper and appease her.
"People have three souls and six spirits, and Lao Li's appearance is obviously overly frightened and he was scared to lose one of the souls."
Chen Laogou looked at Lao Li's life fire and used the soul guard talisman to probe Lao Li's soul, and most of the conjectures in his heart were right, so he said that Lao Li probably bumped into something when he went out to drink last night.
"Dad, what now?"
"It's important to save people, you take your Aunt Li out, and I'll bring Lao Li's Yuan Shen back first."
At this critical juncture, it must be the first to save people, Lao Li, a flesh-and-blood living person, if the Yuan Shen is separated from the body for a long time, even if he gets it back, he will end up with dementia!
Seeing that Chen Laogou was still in the old way, he took out a burst of soul attraction talisman from his sleeve and pasted it on Lao Li's forehead, and then took out a few of Lao Li's hairs to facilitate the recognition of people when the soul returned for a while.
At this time, Chen Laogou spread a white cloth in front of him, and bit the index fingers of his two hands respectively......
With a little hand, his hands blended in front of him, and then he sat cross-legged on the ground, and his hands began to write a spell on the white cloth.
Soon, the two spiritualist talismans were written, and they just wrapped Lao Li's hair in the middle.
"Boy, you go to the southeast corner and point the soul-attracting incense." Chen Laogou instructed the pigtail to point the soul incense in the southeast direction of the altar, so that the unconscious soul could follow the incense to find the body.
"Go up to the heavens, go down to the tunnel, the world of the ten directions, and the soul is in order." I saw that Chen Laogou's fingers were interlocked, and he made a very strange gesture, and began to chant words in his mouth.
And Chen Laogou and Chen Xiaobraid, who finished reciting the conjuring words, began to stare at Lao Li with their eyes.
After the time of half a pillar of incense, I saw that Lao Li, who was still sluggish, suddenly fell backwards with a heavy body, and his body twitched a few times and soon stopped moving......
"Daddy...... Uncle Li... Uncle Li, what's wrong? ”
"Don't worry, he's fine, the lost soul is back, he still has to get used to it."
Seeing that the soul had returned to Lao Li's body, Chen Laogou rekindled Lao Li's life fire, and then took off the soul charm on his forehead.
This Lao Li has not moved for most of the hour, Chen Xiaobraid and the daughter-in-law of the Li family are a little anxious at this time, while Chen Lao Gou is calmly holding a cigarette pouch next to him and sucking it.
"Whew...... I... Where am I? After a while, I saw Lao Li, who was lying on the bed, heard his voice, and the whole person sat up in a daze.
"Woo woo you dead ghost finally woke up, do you know it scared me!"
"I ...... How did I get back? ”
At this time, Lao Li seemed to have no memory of what happened last night.
"Lao Li, tell me what happened last night, do you know that you were scared and lost your soul?"
"...... last night? Last night... Yes! I remember! ”
Now that the person is safe at this time, Chen Laogou plans to carefully inquire about the incident of last night, what kind of strange thing can make Lao Li, a big man, lose his soul......
According to Lao Li's recollection of last night......
"Come on,!" "Haha, you can't leave if you can't finish drinking!" Last night, Lao Li went to the neighboring village to drink with his brothers, and when it came to drinking in the Northeast, it was really speechless, not only did he drink endlessly, but he also drank for a long time.
"Hmm... I'll go first...... I can't do it, I'm going to drink it again tomorrow! ”
"Hahaha, Lao Li, you slow down on the road, you live far away."
By the time Lao Li and a few buddies finished drinking, it was already past eleven o'clock......
Lao Li set foot on the road back to the village at this time, although it is said that it is two villages, but the road connected in the middle Lao Li is often walked, so he is not afraid of anything.
He drank a lot of wine last night, and he was staggering when he walked, and at this time, he was blown by the cold wind, and he was also confused.
With the strength of the wine, Lao Li also became bolder, he gave up the village road a little far, and thought of passing through the forest to take a shortcut and hurry home.
That night, according to Lao Li's recollection, the moon only had a small crescent, and it was dark all around, and there was no half a figure.
In this way, he walked on the mountain road for more than ten minutes, because the current weather Xiaofeng was blowing lukewarm, which was very pleasant, and Lao Li felt very comfortable.
Lao Li was walking in the grove when he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a figure shaking in the woods.
Lao Li has a bold temperament, completely like the big character of a Northeast person, and he is not afraid of heaven and earth. He didn't understand at this time, why were there still people moving in the woods at this point in time? Could it be that I missed something......
Lao Li took a closer look, and felt that it was even more interesting, there were many people dancing there, although there were no lights, but the music was very rhythmic, which made people very excited.
Out of curiosity, Lao Li staggered towards the woods where the figures were shaking......
Because Lao Li himself is a person who likes to join in the fun, listening to the music and swaying with the group of people, he was drinking vigorously at that time, and he didn't think about anything wrong here.
Lao Li recalled that he joined those people to dance together, and none of them actually paid attention to him, just writhing their bodies excitedly, and he was infected and had been dancing excitedly.
Not to mention drinking and making mistakes, Lao Li didn't feel anything wrong dancing in a deserted grove in the middle of the night.
Later, after dancing for a long time, Lao Li realized that the people around him slowly began to feel wrong, and the faces of those people slowly became distorted.
Lao Li was so frightened that he woke up most of the time, and his brain began to understand a little, and the situation in front of him was a little abnormal.
At this time, he noticed that the bodies of those dancing were writhing more and more abnormally, and the amplitude was also very distorted.
Some people have become like they are looking in the mirror, their bodies twisted to that kind of weird step, and they all twisted their bodies and expressions to the extreme.
At first, Lao Li thought that he had drunk too much and was wrong, but after rubbing his eyes a few times, he found that the situation was still the same...... It hasn't changed a bit, but it's twisted even more!
Lao Li only began to be scared at this time, thinking that these dancers are not human......
Lao Li screamed in fright, turned around and ran in the other direction.
Lao Li said that he was trying to run back to the village on the village road, but he ran for half an hour, but he still didn't run out of the grove.
At that time, he found that even the surrounding scenery began to rotate and distort, and all the land and trees began to become strange.
Lao Li really didn't know what he was encountering, so he stood stunned and didn't dare to move......
And at that time, there was only a straight path in front of him, and at this time, it was cracked into countless twisted and crossed dirt roads in front of his eyes, and it was dizzying and impossible to choose.
The situation at that time was very scary, Lao Li thought about it and felt that he still couldn't stay where he was, what if something happened, so he chose a random path and rushed down frantically.
But I didn't think that this walk would be a whole few hours, and the dirt road became so long that I couldn't walk at all.
In the end, he didn't know where he was, he only felt that he was really prostration, and he couldn't lift his legs.
Lao Li gave up and wanted to sit down and rest for a while, but when he turned around, he saw that a group of weird and distorted crowds were actually standing behind him, laughing at his weird screams.
Lao Li couldn't stand this stimulation, and suddenly fainted in fright......
"Woooooooooo......oo Last night, he was carried back by a few people in the village after the rooster crowed, and I didn't think much about it at the time, thinking that he drank for a night, but I didn't expect ......"
It seems that Lao Li should have been frightened in the woods, just in time for the people in the village who went up the mountain to pick up herbs, so he was kindly sent home.
"But I don't see that you are surrounded by yin energy, and you are not haunted by ghosts for several miles."
Lao Li was frightened, and at this time he firmly believed that he had met an evil ghost. But Chen Laogou's words made everyone wonder......
"Dad, are you mistaken, since there are no ghosts entangled, how can Uncle Li be like this."
"Haha, if I'm right, it should be caused by Ecstasy Grass."
It turned out that in the woods of the neighboring village, the old people said that there was a strange grass growing called Ecstasy Grass, which was often encountered by people and animals.
It is said that this ecstasy plant grows unusually, blooms only at night, and when stepped on by people and animals, it will burst into an extremely fine pollen.
Once this pollen is smelled by people and animals, they will be confused by it, delirious and hallucinating, becoming disoriented, and seeing things also spinning and distorting, and always circling in place. It is said that many people who fall into the ghost and hit the wall do so because they have stepped on this grass......
"Wow! Dad, what a long insight, it turns out that Uncle Li was scared by this poisonous weed and lost his soul. ”
After listening to Chen Laogou's speech, the pigtails were shocked and couldn't close their mouths, they had never heard of this kind of grass. And Lao Li couldn't raise his head in shame at this time, he didn't expect that a big man would lose his soul because of the grass......
