Chapter 276: Ghost Woman
The bells rang long and long, and the grief was incomprehensible. As the voices got closer, I saw a row of dark shadows peeking through the east wall. They marched in a long line, slowly, in a very orderly manner. Lingzheng's expression changed, he raised his hand and gently covered my mouth, and whispered in my ear: "Shh...... Don't make a sound, it's a Yin patrol. β
My body trembled.
It's not a good thing to encounter Yin soldiers patrolling now.
Lingzheng can only barely stand now, and I'm just a half-baked Yin Master, who is the opponent of these Yin soldiers. What if it is discovered?
Lingzheng motioned for me to hide in the carriage.
There are no carriages on the shelves, and there are no horses, the carriages are placed directly on the ground, and we get into them, and the body of the carriage is enough for two people. The Yin soldiers walked slowly towards us, and I could see the scene outside through the carriage. It's like a piece of glass, and you can see it clearly when you look out of the house at night. And when you look inside from the outside, it's blurry.
I think that's what this carriage is like.
A black shadow walking in the front waved a white flag, leading the black shadow behind to move forward neatly. A group of dozens of people soon all emerged from the walls, walking very close to the carriage.
I hid in Lingzheng's arms, and my mind gradually calmed down, but I was not as scared as before.
The leader with the white flag was dressed in pure black armor, and behind him was a large drum carried by eight black shadows. The drum is surrounded by bronze bells. No one was beating the drum at the moment, so there was only the sound of bells, fluttering and flickering. The one at the back holds a long bony horn and does not blow it. For I didn't hear anything but the bells.
The faces of these people were very pale, and they collided with the black shadows of their bodies, which looked very incongruous. Especially their faces, not to mention expressionless, each one is very long, like a horse face, several times longer than ordinary people. All of them looked exactly the same, they all had long faces and white faces, like papier-mΓ’chΓ©.
They move forward lightly, but not slowly.
The group of Yin soldiers pierced through this wall directly to the opposite wall and vanished. Before I could breathe a sigh of relief, I saw an old woman appear in the wall. She was dressed in a Tang dress, her hair was meticulously curled into a Tang bun, and a hairpin was inserted on it. She didn't stop in the main hall, and followed the Yin soldiers into the wall. It's just that the moment she entered, she glanced back in the direction of me and Lingzheng, and then smiled meaningfully.
That smile clearly had a deep meaning.
She found us, but didn't debunk it!
Who is she?
Lingzheng seemed to see through my thoughts, and explained to me: "She is a ghost woman, specializing in sucking the essence of warlocks, she found you, but she didn't let the Yin soldiers notice, she wanted to enjoy it alone......" Lingzheng pushed me out of the carriage, raised his hand, and recited a string of incantations in his mouth, and the golden dragon pestle appeared in his palm out of thin air. He handed me the golden dragon pestle and urged me, "You go quickly, I'll deal with her." β
"I'm not leaving." I replied decisively.
"First year of junior high school, don't be willful, be good, you go first......"
"I don't want it!" I saw the blood on his face, my heart ached, and I gently walked up to wipe it clean for him, and said, "Lingzheng, we are husband and wife, we want to live together, and we want to die together." "I made this decision, not for anything else, but for my own heart. If you want to call me selfish, let me be selfish to the end, I can't do it anymore, twice I watched the Spirit leave me, and if I could, I wish it was me who left first.
Lingzheng looked at me for a moment and nodded slightly: "Okay, then go to the Bell Pavilion." Lingzheng didn't say anything polite to me, he directly put the whole person on my shoulder and pointed me in a direction, "Go this way, ...... quickly" Lingzheng is the city god, and he is very familiar with the terrain here. He took me into hiding, bypassing the place where the Yin soldiers were.
I found that my strength was getting stronger and stronger, when I was in Jiangxin Town before, I couldn't help Lingzheng, but now I can walk like a fly with him in my arms, and I even think I can still carry him on my back, so I can be faster. I felt a little weird, especially since I had just lost a lot of blood.
Don't ask me why souls bleed. Souls will still be hungry and grow vegetables, can you believe it? If you ever dream that you accidentally entered a vegetable garden and trampled the green vegetable seedlings to death, then you have to be careful, there will be good brothers coming to you to pay for it.
Ling and I had been walking for a long time, and at last, we stopped in front of a pavilion.
We have been to this place before, this is a very national characteristics of the small building, with the words 'Bell Pavilion' written on it in small seals. It's better to say it's a tower than a pavilion. Octagonal, with nine floors, made of pure black wood with a glazed tile roof on top. Somewhat slightly gorgeous. However, compared to the previous Hall of Eternal Life, this place is very shabby.
Ling was going into the Bell Pavilion, but he told me to wait at the door, saying that this was not the place I should have come.
After a while, I was waiting alone in a hurry, and Lingzheng came out with a piece of vine. It's similar to the one carved on the door of the Hall of Eternal Life. Lingzheng's spirit is obviously much better, and I feel like the blood I lost has been rebuilt. Being young is good, with strong hematopoietic function and fast recovery of the body.
"This is the Yin Wood Vine." He handed me the vine, "I'll attach it to it, and it's convenient for you to bring it." β
As he spoke, he turned into a wisp of smoke and burrowed into the Yin Wood Vine.
I hurriedly put the Yin Mu Vine into my arms, and then I was stunned. Damn! I don't know the way, how do I get back to the sun?
"Go one mile to the left, it's the Santu River, jump down." Ling Zheng told me how to go in the yin wood vine, and when he saw me sigh softly, he said again: "Don't worry, I have relieved the anger of this river." There will be iron chains in the river, you grab the chain and go upstream, you will see the black fog cliff, climb up is the sacrificial platform, and then walk ten miles is half a step. β
"I'll try......" I rubbed my nose and prepared to hit the road.
Lingzheng instructed again: "Remember, don't touch the Yin Wood Vine. I mean, vines that grow out of living shade trees. β
"Uh-oh." I nodded, "If there's anything on the way, you can tell me again." β
"No, I can't. You have to be on your own, I'll show my whereabouts as soon as I say it. β
"Oh......"
I gently patted the yin wood vine in my arms, took two deep breaths, and walked to the left. Soon I saw a pool of water, extremely turbid, it was the Santu River. The two flowers by the river are in full bloom, only the flowers have no leaves, and the petals are red and bloody.
It was quite safe along the way, and I didn't even touch a single Yin soldier. I don't think it's my luck, I happened to meet the Yin Si big treat, and I recruited those Yin soldiers back to drink, someone should have helped me clean up in advance.
But who will be helping us in the dark? Could it be Jiu'er?
I was standing by the Santu River, and I didn't see the ferry from the last time. I hesitated for a moment, but eventually jumped.
This time I was prepared, although my swimming skills were not good, but the time to hold my breath was quite long. I groped in the water, but I couldn't find the iron chain that Lingzheng said, and I couldn't change my breath, so I retreated to the shore again.
Lingzheng is inconvenient to speak now, so I have to figure out how to do it myself.
What should I do?
I am usually indecisive, and most of the time I either Shen Yan and Jin Shiyi help me make decisions, or I count on my grandmother or parents to solve it for me. - I can't go on like this, I'm going to have to protect them on my own.
I thought about it in my mind for a while, and remembered that Lingzheng had told me before that there was a spell called "Soul Stacking".
Stacking souls, as the name suggests, is to stack souls.
I'm going to use these stacked souls to cross the Santu River.
In the yang world, this spell is used to extract people's souls alive and then superimpose them. It was a bloody killing, and the picture was simply horrific. But I'm not going to pull out people's souls and stack them now, this is Yinsi, and the most important thing is the soul, just invite it directly.
I slit the fingers of my left hand and dripped blood into the Santu River. The purpose of this is to use the smell of blood to lure the water spirits in the water first. There are no Yin soldiers here, and I haven't seen them many times before. The Santu River is just a place where the new soul passes by, and not many Yin soldiers will come here to patrol. On the one hand, it is because the person who has just died is still relatively confused, either waiting here for the traction of his first friend, or being bound by iron chains in a daze and leading to the next destination. On the other hand, the resentment here is too heavy, just looking at this stretch of endless two-life flowers, you know that you must have a strong spiritual power to stay here, so as not to be affected by the resentment here.
The Yin Soldier is just the soul formed by the soul of the person who is more Yin after death, and after receiving the favor of Lingzheng, he no longer goes to reincarnate as a human being, but only serves as a minor official in the Yin Division. Therefore, the spiritual power of this kind of soul is generally not very strong.
I once heard Shen Yan and Jin Shiyi talk about Lingzheng, and they said that Lingzheng also had requirements for picking Yin soldiers at the beginning, otherwise if their spiritual power was too strong, this underworld would create a killing. Because there are tens of millions of Yin soldiers in Yin Division, and there are only a few dozen Yin Soldiers, and there is only one City God.
Before, I was afraid of being discovered by the Yin soldiers, not that I was afraid of their personal spiritual power, but I was afraid of recruiting a lot of Yin soldiers, and at that time, they could also kill us in guerrilla warfare.
Soon after the soul stacking technique was cast, I saw some black shadows floating on the water, searching for my blood and qi to the Santu River.
I say I'm sorry, you're already water ghosts, and you don't have any autonomy at all. Now I'm casting a spell to stack you together, just to cross the river. When I return to Yangshi, I'll burn more paper money for you in the middle of July. - I drew a circle with the blood of my left hand, about the size of a palm, by the Santu River, and then kept dripping my own blood into the circle to attract more water ghosts.
The water ghosts in the river immediately exploded, and swam towards me with great excitement, not even the two flowers that they dared not approach, and floated straight to the shore. But they are water ghosts, and where can they come to the shore? So they can only be piled up layer by layer, and the more they are piled up, the more they are piled up. The water ghosts behind don't know why, they only know that there is something they want in front, so they rush to the front, and the water ghosts in front are squeezed out of shape by the water ghosts in the back. But they can't go ashore, they can't retreat, they can only be squeezed smaller and smaller.
I sneered, as if I saw their greed for blood, and my heart was very satisfied, very happy.
It turns out that one day, I can also become crazy and eat blood......
