Chapter 260: A Hundred Ghosts Walk at Night
I wiped the tears from my face with my sleeve, adjusted my mood, and said to the baby in my belly: "Little baby, you don't have a name yet, let's call you baby first, your father taught your mother to seal the Yin Pass, but he suddenly disappeared, but it doesn't matter, our mother and son are also very happy to depend on each other, right?" Let's go, mom will take you home. "I briefly cleaned up the ritual artifacts that had been scattered in the open space, then turned and walked back.
I slung my backpack over my shoulders and walked back dozens of steps, the fog around me getting bigger.
I could faintly see a dark shadow moving in the grove.
Before I could see clearly, one after another black shadows lined up in a long line, hunched over to me, bowing their heads and silently. I was so frightened that I stood beside a big tree without saying a word, secretly frightened. This is a nocturnal encounter with a hundred ghosts, right?
After waiting for a while, I watched the long team of dark shadows move forward, and they didn't notice me.
When the long line of shadows passed by me, my heart jumped, and I hurriedly took a few steps forward and patted one of the shadows on the shoulder. The dark shadow slowly raised its head...... Bai's miserable face had no facial features, and it was as flat as an A4 piece of paper. I blinked desperately, banishing the illusion in my mind and taking a closer look at the dark shadow in front of me. This black shadow has a face, but there are no pupils in the eye sockets, and the face is burnt yellow, and there is no blood at all. The pupilless eyes looked at me, and after a while, they were left with bloody tears.
"Grandma? It's really you! Why are you here? ”
I screamed softly, my whole body shuddering, and my backpack slipped from my hands and fell to the ground with a dull sound.
Grandma ignored me, slowly lowered her head again, and continued to walk slowly.
The hundred ghosts who travel at night are all homeless wandering ghosts, who have no home when they are alive and no home after death, so they can only gather a large group and wander in the world by chance. When you meet a living person, you will take the opportunity to attach yourself to the person, in order to return to the world to fulfill your unfulfilled wishes. In fact, it's not so much possession, but it can affect people's emotions a little.
Although the power of the hundred ghosts here is great, it alone does not play a big role.
I was talking and laughing with my grandmother just now, how could her spirit appear here?
Moreover, she is a yin walker, so she shouldn't follow the night tour of a hundred ghosts!
If the soul leaves the body to go to the Yin Division to do errands, it is also the old immortal who followed us to the entrance of the Yin Hall to come out.
There are also masters who walk in the yin, and there are two masters respectively, one is a living yang person, and the other is an old immortal family at the entrance of the yin hall. Before every yin master learns to see incense, there will be a period of crazy days, if there is a master with it, it will be smoothly passed, if there is no master, it will be completely crazy, this is the grandmother's master in the yang world, but the master has passed away a long time ago, and went back to the mountain to cultivate. From then on, my grandmother would follow the old fairy family when she came out of the yin.
The shadows walked through a few trees in front of me and onwards.
Seeing that my grandmother ignored me, my heart became more and more confused, and I unconsciously followed.
As I walked, the shadows suddenly disappeared on the spot, and I suddenly passed through a white mist to a square full of people, and the winter wind bleakly weaved through the crowd, and swam to the marble stalls and turn a corner, and then blow back to the center of the field. The marble stall sold some strange things, ancient silver bracelets, jade-encrusted earrings, and emerald pearl hairpins. The people around me looked at us, consciously or unconsciously, with a smile in their eyes and greeted me, as if they had known each other for a long time. I just looked familiar, and I couldn't remember who it was for a while.
At this moment, a thunderclap crossed the blue sky out of thin air, and I looked up and clearly saw a fiery red sun shining in the sky, but I didn't feel a trace of heat on my body. As I watched, the sun suddenly turned into a huge ball of fire and fell downward. The people in the square surged towards the north.
People penetrated my body and ran frantically for their lives.
The whole scene was shocking beyond words.
My mind became a little groggy for a moment, and I kept walking. After walking for a while, he suddenly saw Lingzheng's anxious face. As soon as he saw me, he immediately picked me up and walked out to the corner of the square, where the sky had already darkened, and I looked left and right, where there were crowds of people and stone platforms selling things, only a strange wood.
"Lingzheng, where have you been?"
I was full of spirits, and I reached out to Lingzheng and touched it, it was real, not an illusion.
Lingzheng pulled me into his arms suddenly, hugged me domineeringly and forcefully, then let go of me, took my hand with one hand, and I hurriedly walked forward: "I came out of the Yin Pass after sealing it, and when I saw that the bag was gone, I knew that something happened to you." This is a mass grave, and the yin qi is extremely heavy, so don't come in the future. After a pause, he tightened his grip on me, and blamed himself: "Blame me, I shouldn't have brought you here." ”
As soon as Lingzheng's words fell, the unfamiliar woods just now disappeared again.
There was a thick fog all around. As the fog cleared, I saw a dense grave with yellow and white spirit-conjuring sails inserted into it, and the wind lifted a stack of paper money, which swirled up and fell. I was so shocked that I couldn't speak, goosebumps got all over my body, I kept shivering, and shrank back to Lingzheng's side.
"Don't be afraid of the first day of the new year, this is just an afterimage of the tenth world."
Lingzheng patted the back of my hand and gave me a reassuring look.
"The Tenth World?" I asked, puzzled.
"There are ten places in the world, and we are now in the ninth." The spirit was holding me, and a warm stream of air came from the palm of my hand, swimming through my skin and in my veins. He turned his head to look at me, saw that I was shocked, and explained: "On the first day of the new year, you just need to remember that in the future, you must treat people with kindness. ”
"Uh-oh."
The scenery around me is still changing, and although I don't understand the tenth world that Lingzheng is talking about, I also know that what I see in front of me is just an illusion. So he became a little bolder and said, "Lingzheng, if others are good to me, I will be good to others." ”
"People are good to you, maybe it's to get something, someone is bad to you, maybe they want to protect you." Lingzheng's tone was a little helpless. After a pause, he stroked my hair with his hand, "It's okay, you will slowly realize it in the future." ”
"Oh......"
Human character is innate. Whether it is the original nature of human beings who are good, or the original nature of human beings who are evil. When a thought is formed in a person's brain, no matter how many years have passed, it will still have an impact on the person, because that root is born there. It's like a very stubborn person, if you ask him to get rid of his stubbornness, it's impossible. No matter how he looks down on all things through vicissitudes and how he becomes mature, the stubbornness factor in his bones is with him for a lifetime.
At this time, Ling was telling me to be kind to others, and I knew that he wanted me to be kind to everyone.
I don't want it.
Of course I will be kind to the good people, but I can't get close to the evil people. If you encounter an evil ghost, it's too late to get rid of it, how can you befriend it?!
Lingzheng also understood me, and he didn't speak when he was in a hurry.
In a hurry, I was stopped by a pebble and staggered forward, but fortunately the spirit was holding my hand so that I would not fall. When I stood up and looked again, I saw that the dense grave had disappeared, and we returned to the original forest, where the black backpack I had abandoned was lying quietly at my feet.
I crouched down to pick up my backpack in my hand, and when I stood up, I saw a two-year-old child staring at me face to face...... His face was close to dark blue, half of his face had no scalp, it was bloody, and the torn part of his scalp covered the left side of his face. He didn't speak, he didn't move, he just stared at me with wide eyes, his face expressionless. There were no other scars on the right side of his face other than scattered blood spots.
I was half-crouching at the moment, as tall as this child, and I was so shocked that I stepped back, but Lingzheng squeezed my hand and whispered to me not to move.
The little kid reached out and wanted to touch my face.
The nail shells of his ten fingers had been broken, and the skin on the back of his hand was black like congealed blood.
I couldn't help but feel creepy.
Because I usually like to watch ghost movies, I immediately remembered the child in the curse, and I couldn't help but feel numb in my back, and goosebumps suddenly appeared on my hands. There was silence all around, save for the occasional sound of branches breaking in the woods. The spirit was holding me and telling me not to move, and even though I was so frightened that I wanted to die, I didn't lift my fingers, but looked directly at the child, praying that he would never touch my face. I knew with my knees that he was not a living person, and the skin of the dead gray hand must have been cold and piercing to the touch.
He looked at me, his half-outstretched hand frozen in the air, and a suspicious look on his face. He tilted his head, looked at me stunned for a long time, slowly put his hand down, turned around, and left.
That's when I noticed that he didn't have shoes on his feet.
He stepped barefoot on the leaves, making a subtle rustling sound.
At night, the yin qi is particularly heavy, and adults walking barefoot on the road will be frozen off a layer of skin, let alone a child?
I stood up straight, my heart ached, and I couldn't help but call him: "Hi...... Do you remember your name? What is your birthday? "If he remembers, I can burn some paper money for him to buy him a good outfit.
The child stopped, looked back at me, thought for a moment, and replied in a crisp voice: "Lingzheng, March 18th." ”
What the?
Lingzheng? March 18th?
How is it exactly the same as Lingzheng's name and birthday? Who the hell is this kid?
"Your name is Lingzheng too? Do you remember how long you've been dead? "A thought suddenly flashed through my head, isn't this little spirit the same child I saw before, buried in the ground by many strong men? His grave is not far away, it is still a new grave, and there are two words engraved on it: Lingzheng.
Lingzheng also told me that the new tomb was just my vision, and now it seems that it is more than that.
Xiao Lingzheng did not answer my words, but was silent and hung his head.
I smiled at him: "Xiao Lingzheng, okay, you are good, don't think about it, I'll burn your shoes when you go back." "I can't let him remember the moment of death anymore, it was too painful, too cruel for Xiao Lingzheng.
Xiao Lingzheng nodded his head vigorously two or three times, without saying a word.
I wanted to ask something else, but Xiao Lingzheng's figure slowly dissolved and disappeared in front of us.
In the heart of every spirit, there is an obsession. If one day my cultivation increases greatly and I can get rid of their attachments, they will be free. There are many different beings in this world, either demons or ghosts, or immortals or Buddhas, the former is feared by the world, and the latter is admired by the world. As far as I am concerned, except for my parents, Lingzheng, grandmother, Ling Wang's tomb, Shen Yan, and Jin Shiyi, there is no difference between other people or spirits in my eyes. If it is good, I will support it, and if it is not good, I will get rid of it, so that it will not become a scourge in the future.
However, at this moment......
I looked at this little child, and suddenly an emotion sprouted like never before.
I have only known him for a few minutes, and I can't tell whether he is good or evil, but girls are born with maternal love, not to mention that I am now pregnant, I think I was struck by him at this time The deepest string in my heart triggered maternal love, so I want to help him unconditionally. And...... This little spirit is giving me the feeling that it is too familiar.
"Lingzheng, the name of the ghost kid just now is the same as yours, and the birthday is the same, is there any relationship between you?"
