Since I escaped death, I have lived in peace for a while, and during this time, I have basically done nothing but think about life.

But since she came back, Fan Xueqi's girl has rarely come to see me, and I don't know if she dislikes me for teaching me badly, or because of other things, in short, she comes to the tattoo parlor a lot less often.

And Bai Xiaoran is better.

At first, I noticed that there was something unusual about the dead child's tattoo, so when I finally did it, I hid the soul in the tattoo in a secret way and scattered it in a flower pot on the balcony.

All of this was done after blindfolding Jia Yanwen's eyes, otherwise, what was she doing blindfolded at that time?

At that time, I only vaguely guessed that Jia Yanwen was the person sent by the Soul Assassin to disturb my state of mind, but there was no evidence to prove that there was a relationship between the two, and there was no evidence to prove what kind of connection there was between the two, so it was hard to say at the time, but there was a feeling that someone might be watching my every move through Jia Yanwen's eyes!

So I blindfolded her.

When you want to do what you want to do, just blindfold Jia Yanwen.

I don't know whose soul it is, I just know that it's better to hide it first.

Spells, after learning them, they are either used to deceive ghosts or deceive their peers, depending on who is more skilled.

Later, I thought about it carefully, I think I and the soul assassin are half a catty, maybe "ta" has a peerless genius, when using spells, people have a feeling of brightness, but the real strength is not very high, otherwise, I wouldn't have been caught by my spells, thinking that I have always been trapped in his game!

Alas, not to mention this, it's all in the past.

But I know that I have formed a bond with the mysterious Soul Assassin, because I destroyed the two sets of spells carefully designed by "TA", whether it is a monster diagram or a hundred ghost Gu, "TA" has worked hard for so many years, and none of them can get results, no matter who it is, they will definitely hate me to death when they encounter such a thing.

I had a hunch that "ta" would come back to me.

*

On the 14th day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, before you know it, it is this day again.

This is one of the most famous Halloween festivals in China, and legend has it that on this day, the king of Hades would open the door of the ghost so that the spirits of the dead who were held in the underworld could return to the earth and reunite with their loved ones.

Of course, it was also the day when I "made a difference".

Ahem!

Yes, "crossover".

Alas, it was also the last day I wanted to live.

That night, I walked out in a thin coat, and the road was windy, and I kind of regretted why I didn't wear a little thicker.

The older the street, the older the legend.

Many people believe that there is a famous yin and yang road in the old streets of the ancient city, and many people have encountered ghosts on this road, and some people have even seen the black and white impermanence that holds the soul of a person who has just died on this road, and they have also seen the ghost gate.

I would say that these are all true.

But no matter how famous this yin and yang road is, the more ghost stories and legends there are, the more terrifying they are, but every year in July and a half, there will still be people coming to this road in groups, burning incense and worshiping, as long as you walk into this yin and yang road on this day, you will see the whole street is full of paper money, if you don't pay attention to it, those papers will also stick to people's bodies, if you are not very lucky, you will also be evil, and you will have a little problem.

I, Wu Shen, am alone, without a father or mother, without relatives and without a reason, and only one master who died in ashes, so I have never worshiped anyone in my life.

will come to this yin and yang road, of course, for the ghost gate.

The Ghost Gate Pass in Black Rock City is set up at the end of this yin and yang road.

The end that no one dares to go.

In the middle of July, the living people will come here en masse to burn incense and worship along the way, and the paper money is scattered all over the sky, but no one dares to walk into the end of the yin and yang road on this day.

Because the old people say: If the living person walks in on this day, he will never come back! Because the ghost door is closed, when the ghost door is closed and opened, it is the time when the undead come out, and when the ghost door is closed, it is the time when the undead return to the underworld. If a living person walks in on this day, if he happens to encounter the undead returning to the underworld, he will be caught by the undead and become a real dead person!

Could this be the case?

It doesn't seem to be.

I've only heard one true story.

Seventy years ago, a three-year-old child came to Yinyang Road with the adults in the family on this day to burn incense and worship his ancestors.

The adults of his family had just set up the bowl of rice for the sacrifice on this road, and the people who were also here to burn incense and worship saw the child, "Ah", and said to the adult, "Why did you bring the child with you?" Don't you know that it's better for children not to come down this road? You know, children are the closest to that world, if you accidentally fall in love with a ghost uncle and hook him away, where are you crying? ”

"It's fine. I keep an eye on the baby, and nothing will happen. You don't know, this child has been clingy since he was a child, he will follow me wherever I go, and if I don't give him a follow, he will cry. I can't bring it with me. The adult said with a smile.

"Then let him cry, and the crying will pass."

"It can't be done, it can't be done. The baby is not yours, you don't know how troublesome it is to cry. The adult said with a wry smile, and then continued to set the dishes and chopsticks.

After setting up the dishes and chopsticks, the adult turned his head and suddenly found that the child was gone!

As soon as he finished saying "it's okay", in a blink of an eye, the child was gone!

This made the adult of the family anxious on the spot, and hurriedly went around to ask the people who were burning incense and worshiping on the same road if they had seen their son?

But no one said to see.

I don't know how many people asked, and suddenly a person pointed to the deepest part of the Yin Yang Road and said to her: "I seem to see your son walking inside!" ”

Good boy, that's amazing!

The adult was black-eyed on the spot, and fainted in the street.

Fortunately, someone pinched her and woke her up.

After she woke up, she cried and said that she was going to go in to find her son, but no one else could stop her, so she could only watch her cry and run in in the flying paper.

No one dared to go in and see what was going on.

I only know that in the early morning of the next day, there was a heavy fog on Yin and Yang Road, and the woman who everyone thought would never come back walked out of the fog.

But she looked very strange, as if she had lost her soul, and no one called her.

But she also knows to go home.

After returning home, the family looked at her too strangely, so they hurriedly invited a Taoist priest, who was a bit of a Taoist, so he danced all night and finally called back the woman's lost soul.

The Taoist priest said: Fortunately, the ghost gate was open for 14 or 15 days, so they could still call back the woman's lost soul before the ghost gate closed on July 15, but the child ......

Alas, naturally, there is nothing to be done!

The adult knelt down and begged the Taoist priest to find a way to save the child, even if it was bankrupt!

But the ghost door is closed!

The Taoist priest told them that as long as the ghost gate is closed, no one can call back the people who walked in!

So, the story of "you must not walk into the end of the yin and yang road in the middle of July" came from here.

But few people know about the follow-up.

- After that, another 25 years later, the lost child returned.

He was 3 years old when he went missing.

When I came back, I was still 3 years old.

There was a gap of 25 years.

That sounds incredible, right?

But it's true.

When the child came back, everyone checked his body, the birthmark was exactly the same, and there was a naughty wound on his body the night before he was lost, and he was wearing the clothes before he was lost.

But when the child came back, he found that his parents and older siblings had grown old, and the most terrifying thing was that he had many more "adult versions" of younger siblings. (At that time, the national situation was to advocate more births and more children, "more people have great strength.") ）

He couldn't adapt to the living environment after 25 years, so he became more and more withdrawn, and when he grew up, he became a famous eccentric in the old streets of the ancient city.

He is my master.

Master said that in the 25 years since he was "lost", rumors that he would die as long as he stepped into the ghost gate have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so even if he returns to the human world after 25 years, although this incident has caused a momentary sensation, it still cannot change people's long-ingrained beliefs. So up to now, there are still many people who say that as long as they enter the end of the yin and yang world in the middle of July, they will be swept away by black and white impermanence, and they will never be able to return to the world.

I asked Master what he had been through in the 25 years he had been lost.

But he didn't say anything.

Later, I found out in ancient books that like Master, he "disappeared" when he was 3 years old, and when he reappeared 25 years later, he was still 3 years old.

And no one knows what Master experienced during the 25 years that he was hidden by God.

It is precisely because of Master's miraculous experience that I was very young and determined where the ghost gate was closed, so when Master was in ashes, it was the day when the ghost gate was closed, so that I could break into that world from this road in one breath, and then I would have formed this evil relationship.

Jingle Bell ......

I walked quietly with my collar upright and my hands in my pockets, trying not to attract attention.

But......

Jingle Bell ......

The string of soul bells tied to his waist has been ringing, and it is difficult not to attract attention!

Alas, are you going to ring the bell to say goodbye to this world because you are leaving the world?
