Chapter 23: The Upper Body of the Ghost
The deeper you walked, the heavier the cold became, and even the ground seemed to be frozen, and you could feel the chill coming from the ground through the soles of your shoes.
I looked up at the master, but found that the master's face seemed to be frozen, without any expression, and when I looked at Qiao Sanye again, his eyes were also as if he had lost his mind, and his eyes were empty, like a pair of fake eyes.
At first, I heard Qiao Sanye say that the old head of the scrap collection station was changed, and I didn't feel anything, but now when I see Qiao Sanye's weird appearance, I am suddenly frightened.
It was a completely instinctive fear, and even both legs were completely weak in an instant.
At this time, Master tightened his fingers slightly, and I felt the strength on his fingers, and then I felt the warmth between his palms, and the strength in my legs gradually increased.
Looking at the master again, his face finally returned to its previous appearance.
I didn't dare to look at Qiao Sanye's face anymore, I hugged Master's hand, put the frozen face on Master's arm, and followed Master step by step.
As long as Master is there, I feel extremely relieved.
After a long time, the master finally stopped in front of a courtyard gate, there was a talisman pasted in the center of the door, and the surroundings were terrifyingly quiet, only the cold wind occasionally blew, and the talisman paper trembled and made a burst of breaking sounds.
The door was locked inside, and the master glanced at Qiao Sanye, I didn't dare to look at Qiao Sanye's face, but I heard a soft sound of "brush", and Qiao Sanye had already jumped over the top of the door and helped us open the door from the courtyard.
"Hey, hey, hey......"
As soon as I opened the door, I heard someone laughing in the courtyard, it was still the woman's voice, this time her voice was not amplified by the alley, but became more and more eerie, this scene reminded me of the Master's eyes when he looked at Zhou Daochang.
When I entered the courtyard, I found that Zhou Daochang was also there.
There was an iron chair welded to the courtyard, and a woman with a disheveled hair was tied to it, and she was hunched over, her face almost pressed to her knees, and her long messy hair hung down so that I couldn't see what she looked like.
Zhou Daochang held a wooden sword in one hand and a beige rune paper in the other, and circled around the woman with righteous thoughts.
I could tell at a glance that Daochang Zhou was also terribly scared now, and when he circled around the woman, both legs were trembling.
Master dragged me to the corner of the courtyard and made a silent gesture at me, signaling me not to speak.
Qiao Sanye also quickly came over, and I deliberately turned my eyes to the side without looking at his face.
At this time, I saw that the woman on the iron chair suddenly trembled, and then the ghostly laughter came out of her mouth: "Hey, hey, he......y, he
Zhou Daochang immediately quickened his pace, and while circling around the woman, he muttered something I didn't understand.
Suddenly there was a clanging noise, I was startled, my body couldn't help but tremble twice, Zhou Daochang also trembled, his steps were unsteady, and he almost fell.
The woman on the iron chair struggled to twist her body, and the legs of the chair on the ground were about to be broken by her, and the noise just now was the sound of her body colliding with the back of the chair.
Zhou Daochang hurriedly distanced himself from the woman, but he didn't know what he remembered, so he didn't retreat after taking two steps back, but picked up the wooden sword and went to ruffle the woman's hair.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the sword blade touched the tip of her hair, the woman suddenly straightened up, and Zhou Daochang was so frightened that she took several steps back.
Only then did I see the woman's face clearly, she was obviously smiling, but the expression on her face was like crying, and her eyes were still changing rapidly, one moment sad, one moment manic, and one moment like she had lost her mind, staring at Zhou Daochang in a daze.
Zhou Daochang held the talisman paper in front of his chest, but his hands kept shaking.
For a moment, the expression on the woman's face suddenly froze, and then she let out an extremely sharp roar from her mouth like a fried cat: "Ahhhh
The sound could go over the eardrum and directly into the human brain, and I felt confused and my vision blurred.
At that moment, Master placed a hand on top of my head, and then I felt the screams become less harsh, and my head quickly cleared up, and even my vision returned to normal.
I saw that the woman was struggling to stand up, and the momentum seemed to be about to rush towards Zhou Daochang, probably because the woman's strength was too great, and soon there was a crisp "click" sound under the chair, and an iron chair leg was broken from the middle.
Zhou Daochang's body shook violently, turned around and ran towards the door, the speed was like flying.
His attention just now had been on the woman, and he didn't find that the door had been opened, but now he saw the iron door wide open, and suddenly screamed: "My mother-in-law, here is another one!" ”
While shouting like this, the people have already rushed out of the door, and they don't know where to flee.
Qiao Sanye said with a smile: "When the surnamed Zhou saw the door open, he thought that there was another ghost. ”
"There is more than one ghost in this woman." As he spoke, Master spread my hand and walked over to the woman.
I didn't dare to go too far from the master, so I also posted it.
Probably hearing my footsteps, the woman in the iron chair suddenly turned her head, and her eyes were full of resentment and anger, staring at me in a daze.
When she looked at me like this, my heart suddenly tightened, and I quickly hid behind the master.
Master patted me on the shoulder with his hand, and I felt warmer and less afraid, and then he took out a talisman and put it on the woman's forehead.
Strange to say, as soon as the spirit talisman was pasted like this, the woman became like a piece of wood, and she didn't move, and even the brilliance in her eyes dissipated in that instant.
At the same time, the cold aura in the courtyard was much weaker.
Master raised his head and looked above the courtyard wall, and I also cast my eyes there, but I didn't see anything, I don't know why Master was so focused.
Qiao Sanye walked over and glanced at the woman: "Is this child still saved?" ”
Master sighed: "Whether it can be saved or not depends on tonight." The third child. ”
"Huh?"
"If my calculations are correct, the surname Zhou will leave the town tonight, and it is likely that someone will be outside to meet him. Didn't you say before that you have some connections here, what kind of connections? ”
"It's all my family."
"You didn't tell them about me, did you?"
"If you don't let me say it, how dare I say it, and besides, they don't know you."
"Let them keep an eye on the person surnamed Zhou, and see who comes to pick him up."
"It's a small thing, I'll just tell them when I go back."
After speaking, Qiao Sanye pouted at the woman again: "Is this also a tanuki spirit?" ”
The master shook his head and said: "It is estimated that the person surnamed Zhou wanted to cheat and put the ghost talisman in her house, originally just wanted to scare her with a few wandering spirits, so as to defraud her money in the future, but where could he have thought that this woman was originally a physique that was easy to summon spirits, and last night the ghost talisman summoned a powerful ghost and went directly to her." These ghosts want to use her yang body to revive their souls, and if they want to get rid of them, they must waste their hands and feet tonight. ”
