Volume 2, Xuanhai Immortal Mountain_Chapter 74, Bloody Case in the Village

The guide who led us the way was hanging from a tree, and the body was so dry that even the blood was no longer flowing.

The lights were still on in the village, but there was no sound, not even the sound of dogs barking. It's very quiet, it's like a dead silence.

Professor Shen's face changed drastically the moment he saw this scene, and he even subconsciously took a few steps back, and I frowned deeply, something must have happened to the village.

"Professor, you stay here, I'll go in and have a look, don't follow in, it may not be safe inside."

I hurriedly confessed, and hurried inside, and as soon as I entered the village, I smelled a faint stench, like the stench emitted by the decomposition of a corpse, but mixed with a slight smell of blood, which went straight to my nose.

The whole village is not big, there are only about 20 households, close to 100 people, but there is no movement at this time. The moment I saw the guide's body hanging from a tree, I felt a very bad feeling. I walked to the door of the nearest house to me, knocked on the door heavily, I didn't think that the door was pushed open all of a sudden, and the first scene I saw was a person lying on the ground, I couldn't see where the face was and there was no reaction, I walked up and patted him on the shoulder, this wipe of the hand was immediately stained with red liquid, even if you don't use your nose to sniff, you know that this must be blood! Turning the person in front of him over again, the man in front of him was already dead, with a hole in his chest, and the blood had dried up and stuck to the ground. There were also a lot of crawling ants on the ground, surrounding the corpses.

"Grass."

I cursed, and then walked back to the back room, and a more exciting and exaggerated scene came into my eyes. On the bed lay two men, one older and one small, who looked like the wives and children of the man outside, and these two men were also out of breath, their chests pierced by a huge iron rod, nailed to the wall like human strings. The dead mother's hands tried to protect her young son, but unfortunately, her hands could not resist the hard iron rod.

"Grass, who the fuck did this?"

The village must have befallen an unimaginably terrible disaster, and the bad premonition in my mind grew stronger, and I rushed out of the house and ran into the street, and then began to walk towards other people's houses, and the same or even more terrible things kept appearing in my eyes. In the entire village, no one was alive, and all kinds of deaths made this place almost a Shura hell. Not to mention people, even the poultry and watchdogs raised in the village were slaughtered, and blood was splattered everywhere.

I stumbled out, and Professor Shen saw me from a distance and asked, "What's going on in the village?" ”

However, when I wanted to open my mouth and talk to the edge of my mouth, I suddenly held it back again, as if something was blocking my heart, Professor Shen was anxious and shouted, "What's going on in the village?" ”

"Both...... Dead ......"

I said with difficulty, Professor Shen Liangye's old face stiffened suddenly, pushed me away and ran towards the village, more than ten minutes later, he walked back in despair, sitting on the big stone at the entrance of the village, seemingly calm, but in fact, even the act of touching the cigarette from his pocket could not be successfully completed, his hand was shaking, the cigarette just caught his finger and fell down, and he still failed to light the cigarette after several cycles.

In these years, no one has done anything in vain, and it is not terrible to see a dead person, but a tragic situation like this massacre in front of them is a nightmare scene, let alone seeing it, some people can't even imagine such a terrible scene.

"Inside...... How come all the people inside are dead? ”

Professor Shen finally spoke, his face was pale, and his eyes were wandering.

"What's going on here, we'll find out if someone asks."

My face was pale, and the only thing I was thankful for was that I didn't see anyone in our group die in the village, which means that the big guys are still alive and may not have returned to the village yet.

"Who are you asking?"

Professor Shen asked in surprise.

"So many people are dead, let's recruit a few ghosts to come up and ask for clarification."

Although there was a lack of tools, it was not difficult to summon spirits, so a simple offering table was set up with wood in the village, and then two white candles were lit, a few handfuls of white paper were scattered, and a low voice was recited: "Lonely souls and wild ghosts, unjustly died, come and report, come and report!" ”

Throwing white paper while shouting, the conjuring should have been very effective, so many people have died here, the resentment must be soaring, not to mention much, at least half of the souls in this place will become wild ghosts, or even evil ghosts. However, I summoned the spirit for a long time but did not react at all, and there was silence all around, and I did not hear or see any gray ghosts flickering.

Stopped, I frowned, if I looked at it this way, the other party might have guessed that these villagers would be conjured spirits, so they deliberately took away all the souls? The guy who did such a unconscionable thing must be a person in the circle, and there is more than a little means.

Professor Shen, who had been watching for a long time, saw me stop at this moment, so he asked strangely, "What's wrong?" ”

"The souls of this place have been taken away, and my soul conjuring has not succeeded."

I shook my head.

"Is there any other way? Is that the only way to do it? ”

He also looked a little anxious, obviously wanting to know the truth, I pondered for a while and said: "If the spirit conjuring fails, I still have a way, but it may be more risky, you help me prepare things together, and get some licorice to make a fire first......"

Where we live, every land has a land public, this is not made up in "Journey to the West", the land public is now a village official, the central government above basically ignores them, but it will still be paid on time every month, and the offerings and incense of the local people are oil and water. The land lords are not all immortals, to be precise, there are very few immortals who come to be the land lords, most of them are some mountain spirits and demons who have attained the Tao, or there are people with better cultivation in some places who come to be the land lords. Something happened to this side of the land, and the land public all knew about it, but the people or demons who became the land public were generally very timid, and the powerful characters did not dare to provoke, and if there were contractors on the ground to develop and burn incense, they would bless and bless them, and those who did not burn incense would secretly engage in small actions. In short, it's a local parent official.

But it is not easy to invite the land lord to appear, first of all, there must be incense, and secondly, there must be oil and water, if you can put on a feast of ten cows and ten sheep, then it will definitely show up, if it can't be placed, then at least the incense is prosperous. And even if the land lord appears, he may not be able to see it, ordinary ordinary people have very turbid eyes, and if they haven't cultivated, they can't even see ghosts, how can they see the land lord?

There was a fire burning on the ground, and there were a circle of wooden stakes around it, and the wooden stakes were wrapped with red cloth, and I erected a big wooden sign in front of me, on which I wrote a spell with red paint, and then asked Professor Shen to pull out a few dead poultry, although they were dead, but it was also oil and water, and put them on the altar, and then asked Professor Shen for three cigarettes to stand on the altar, and the green smoke curled upwards, and I whispered: "Professor, you hide in the house, don't show your head and don't make a sound, it will be difficult to invite it out again if you startle the land lord." ”

Professor Shen nodded hurriedly, walked into the house, I was wearing a red dress, and said at this time: "Professor, don't be surprised if you see me talking to myself alone in the air for a while, you can't see the land lord." ”

"Oh!"

Professor Shen answered, and the three cigarettes burned slowly, and when they were about to finish, the surrounding wooden stakes suddenly shook slightly a few times, and then the dead poultry on the altar were also fiddled with a few times. I knew that there was a situation, so I immediately touched my eyes with my hand, and then gently wiped them on my eyes, and said in a low voice: "Breathe away your eyes, see the hell." ”

I haven't cultivated the eye of heaven yet, it stands to reason that I can't see the land lord, but I can use a method to replace it, that is, to gather the breath in the eyes to strengthen the sensitivity of the eyes, this method is not as real as the eye of the sky, basically I can only see a rough outline, but as long as I can capture the figure of the land lord.

After a while, a small figure in red clothes appeared in front of the offering table, fiddling with the fruit on the offering table, and I opened my mouth and shouted, "Bold! Who let you touch my tribute! ”
