Chapter 5: A ghost asks for help
Seeing this woman in a long skirt, Ma Zhenling suddenly remembered the female ghost in red, Li Linghua, although this was a black and white photo, that face had been deeply engraved in her mind.
Who is this strange cheongsam girl in the photo? Ma Zhenling carefully removed the photo frame and took out the photos inside, hoping that the old people in the village who were still alive could know all this.
Qing Liyue suddenly dragged out a wooden box from under the bed, covered with a piece of cloth, and ripped off the cloth, and the wooden box was actually locked.
Ma Zhenling hesitated, found a stone from the courtyard, and walked in with great interest.
found that Qing Liyue directly held the copper lock with one hand, but with a force, she actually forcibly ripped the copper lock off, and saw Ma Zhenling stunned and gave him a thumbs up.
After opening the box, there are some trivial objects inside, and the most peculiar thing is that there is actually a small jewelry box inside, and after opening, there is a small copper mirror inside.
The bronze mirror is the size of a palm, cast in bronze on the back, carved with patterns, and has several holes in which a red gem is inlaid, although this gem is only the size of a peanut.
Seeing this gem, Ma Zhenling couldn't take his eyes off it, and immediately grabbed it and looked at it carefully.
His eyes fell on the surface of the mirror, and he found that his mirror image was actually a little distorted, although the bronze mirror was polished very smoothly, but it was still not as clear and clear as the glass mirror.
"There's something weird about the mirror!"
After Ma Zhenling looked at it for a while, he felt a little dizzy, but the strange thing was that the portrait in the mirror became clearer and clearer.
Qing Liyue held a talisman in her hand, reached out and grabbed the mirror and wrapped it, then stuffed it into her pocket, and said, "It's weird, it's been so long?" ”
After a while, Ma Zhenling came to his senses, shook his head, stood up, walked out of the bungalow, and said: "The two most important clues have been found, one is the other woman in the photo, and the other is this mirror." ”
Qing Liyue walked out, took a look at the bungalow, and suddenly a strange wind blew over.
Bang!
There was a loud bang, and the entire house collapsed in an instant, frightening Ma Zhenling there.
If he walked out slowly just now, he was afraid that he would be pressed in this ruin at this moment, he secretly pinched a cold sweat, but found that Qing Liyue's eyes fell on the direction of the tea mountain in the distance, and his expression was extremely cold.
At the same time, he said: "That guy knows that we are chasing and wants to kill us, from now on, you can't leave me half a step." ”
Ma Zhenling nodded, and moved a little closer to the moon, and his heart was a lot more steady.
Today is the second day, and the people in the village have gathered again, as well as relatives who have rushed back from outside, so the uncle's house is more lively today.
Before entering the spirit shed, Qing Liyue suddenly grabbed Ma Zhenling, frowned slightly, and said, "You take a closer look at these people." ”
Ma Zhenling stopped, his eyes swept towards the spirit shed, and the more he looked, the more gloomy his face became.
Many villagers actually walked with their feet on their feet, and he was creepy to see, ghosts possessed, ghosts stepped feet, as long as they were possessed by people, they could also appear during the day.
He swallowed his saliva, clenched his fists, and said, "Didn't they be frightened by you yesterday, why did they dare to come?" ”
At this time, an aunt who was in charge of pouring tea came over with a cup of tea and handed it to Qing Liyue with a smile, the smile on her face was very weird, she didn't smile, she padded her feet, and said, "Come on, come on, you're thirsty, drink some tea." ”
Another little girl came over with a fruit bowl, handed it to Qing Liyue, and smiled sweetly: "Brother, eat a fruit." ”
"Hungry or not? It's still a while before I leave the table. ”
A white-haired old woman walked slowly with a cane, with a smile on her face.
Ma Zhenling was a little speechless, these three people were undoubtedly flattering Qing Liyue, and immediately reached out to grab the fruit, the little girl held the fruit plate and shrank it, and said with a smile: "When he finishes eating, you will eat again." ”
Qing Liyue smiled coldly: "I just think about how I can save you, but you don't reveal any news to me, if you know the roots of the evil, it will be much easier to deal with." ”
The aunt who served the tea still had a smirk on her face, and said: "We can't take this risk, if we tell you all, you can't deal with the master, and it's just us who will end miserably." ”
The little girl nodded, and said in agreement: "Sister Guixiang is right, we can't offend the master, and we can't offend you."
The reason why we did those stupid actions yesterday was just that the master ordered us to investigate the situation, and of course, to test your strength by the way. ”
The white-haired old woman had a gloomy face, snorted in her nose, and said coldly: "You are too cunning! I'm an elder of the pony, and I'm related by blood, shouldn't I help me first? You are not related to him, why should you help you little prodigal hooves! ”
"Li Linghua?"
Ma Zhenling looked at the old woman and was a little surprised, because he remembered that Li Linghua ran away with her ashes jar last night, and now she also appeared here.
"Yes, you can call me Grandma."
The old woman walked over with her feet and crutches, wanting to reach out and touch Ma Zhenling's head, which was very affectionate.
Ma Zhenling took a few steps back, dodged the thin palm, and sneered: "I don't have you as a grandmother, I possessed me last night, left me in the mountains, and was almost sucked dry by the demon tree. ”
The aunt who served the tea next to her covered her mouth, looked at the old woman in disbelief, and said exaggeratedly: "Sister Linghua, I can't see that you are so vicious, and your descendants want to harm your own bloodline, it is really disrespectful to the old and harm the descendants." ”
The little girl nodded in agreement: "Sister Linghua, you are also from Li Village, even if you don't care about the bloodline, no matter how you say it, you are from the same village, you do this kind of thing, and you want this little brother to help you?" ”
The old woman trembled with anger, the crutches in her hand were about to beat, and her mouth opened and said: "You two are spewing blood, trying to separate the feelings between us, and I did possess him last night."
Later, if he hadn't left his body, he would have been sucked dry by the golden boy, where could he get out of trouble?
You must know that the golden boy imp is only dealing with me, not against him, so I left in advance to lure the imp away, but to save his life. ”
This Li Linghua's cheekiness is also thick enough, she must have been intercepted by that little ghost yesterday and did not succeed in escaping, and now she has the cheekiness to ask for Qingliyue, and at the same time pull her own relationship.
His eyes fell on Qing Liyue, his eyes rolling, not knowing what he was thinking.
Qing Liyue glanced at the three of them, and said lightly: "As long as it doesn't threaten Ah Ling's safety, I won't interfere.
There are not a few evil ghosts of your level in Xiangcheng, and the bureau has collected a lot. ”
There was a hint of fear on the faces of the three of them, they had all suffered hardships, this kid who didn't know where he came from, his Taoism was profound, it was really incredible.
"Li Linghua, who is the woman in the cheongsam in the photo?"
Ma Zhenling took out the photo and held it up so that the old woman could see it clearly.
The old woman stared at the photo, her body shook slightly, and then she turned sideways without a trace and said, "She is my good friend, someone I know outside, what are you doing with the photo." ”
"What do you want to hide, your old mansion is what you destroyed, you want to kill us, or, what do you want to hide."
Qing Liyue stood beside her and said lightly.
The old woman swallowed her saliva, turned around with a lot of resentment, and said, "My old house is in disrepair and may collapse at any time, what evidence do you have that I did it?" It may be Guixiang, or Shufen, or it may be the little ghost golden boy raised by that guy. ”
When the little girl heard this, she spat and said: "Sister Linghua, I Shufen is not thin on you on weekdays, your dirty water is really good, we are different from you, you are wearing red clothes and hanging yourself to contribute to the master, you are much more angry than us, fighting alone, I and Guixiang are not your opponents, what can I do to bring down the house?" ”
"You guys leave first, I don't want to see you here."
Qing Liyue heard the quarrel between them, her brows furrowed slightly, and she said coldly with a yellow talisman in her hand.
"Okay."
The three of them spoke in unison, turned and left, and soon disappeared into the crowd.
Ma Zhenling asked curiously, "Ah Yue, since you have the ability to deal with them, why don't you just disperse them."
They are the evil subordinates, although they haven't made a move for the time being, but once they do, we will be unable to resist except you. ”
Qing Liyue's face looked very calm, and said: "They don't have much anger on them, how many people have died in Li Village over the years?" Your uncle must have been killed by the evil spirit.
Keeping them is useful, and they have their own ghosts, so I don't have it so easy to deal with them. ”
Ma Zhenling nodded thoughtfully.
At this time, Qing Liyue suddenly strode towards the spirit shed, and the young man was slightly startled, and hurriedly followed to ask what happened.
"It's time to eat."
Qing Liyue sat down at a table and said with a smile.
The corners of Ma Zhenling's mouth twitched, and he sat down next to him, frowning slightly.
His roommate really has no resistance to eating, he likes to eat everything, as if he has never seen these foods, but what makes him depressed is that no matter how he eats, he is not fat, and even a little doubt that this guy is possessed by a starving ghost.
Although it is a funeral, the noodles are still very good, and the chef is also from the countryside, and the dishes made have a unique flavor.
My cousin and my cousin-in-law sat at this table with their children, and my cousin-in-law Wang Duojin's face was still a little pale, and he couldn't give up, he sat next to Qing Liyue tightly, his eyes swept around, and at the same time asked if there were any ghosts.
Where will Qing Liyue care about him, the chopsticks keep pinching forward, and his mouth is full.
Ma Zhenling didn't have much appetite, pretended to eat a few bites, and like Wang Duojin, he looked around and saw the aunt who poured tea, the little girl and the old woman, they had returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
He didn't understand why these ghosts appeared during the day and possessed the villagers.
Until now, he only knew that there was a very powerful evil in this village, and this evil had killed people many years ago, as well as in the last few days.
He was confused about many things, and he originally looked for it from Li Linghua, but depending on the situation, Li Linghua didn't want to say more, she just wanted to leave.
However, it is certain that a few decades ago, Li Village was in chaos, and at that time, Li Linghua's family died tragically, and it was very likely that it was because of this evil reason.
But after that, why did this evil person not hear from him until a while ago, when his uncle died violently in Chashan.
What did he encounter, and after many years, why did he suddenly kill again?
Ma Zhenling stretched out his hand and pressed his temple, he had a headache, the whole village was shrouded in this unknown danger, not to mention the evil behind the scenes, even these ghosts can cause great harm to people.
"The seal is broken."
Qing Liyue, who had stuffed a large piece of meat into her mouth, chewed it a few times, and suddenly spoke.
Ma Zhenling was stunned for a moment, with an inquiring look in his eyes, sealed? What seals?
Qing Liyue turned her head, swallowed what was in her mouth, and said, "The things I told you before, you still think are false?" If you think about it, you know what a seal is. ”
Ma Zhenling showed a thoughtful look, and finally suddenly realized.
Seeing that the young man's head was not very bright, Qing Liyue muttered softly: "It seems that the talisman will be used less in the future, and it will not be good for his health." ”
Yesterday, Qing Liyue went to the tea garden to check, although she didn't meet the main owner, she must have known that the seal was broken.
This is also the reason why it can be explained that in the past few decades, the evil has not done evil.
It must have been a few decades ago that a master passed by here, fought against this evil spirit, and found a way to seal this evil spirit, so the evil cult has no ability to come out and do evil.
Seals are also divided into many kinds, and what Qing Liyue said most clearly is rune suppression, mysterious runes communicate unknown powers.
Seals also have sealing talismans, sealing formations, and even techniques, utensils, all of which Qing Liyue has said.
"What kind of seal is it?"
Ma Zhenling asked curiously.
