Chapter 18: Appearance
Zhang Shuo thought about it, and already had a plan in his heart, "There are countless righteous sects in the world, but as far as I know, there are a few sects that should be able to help us, huh...... The first Buddhist temple, the White Horse Temple, the first Taoist Taoist Longhu Mountain Heavenly Master Dao, as well as the Maoshan Shangqing School, the Lingbao School, and the West Lake Lingyin Temple...... You can pick a place to start tomorrow, now that technology is so developed, the transportation network is very fast, I believe that one day is enough! Moreover, there must be a connection between the various factions, and when the time comes, as long as one of them is found, it will naturally be able to spread throughout the spell world. ”
Yang Sanshi was surprised and delighted, but he didn't expect Zhang Shuo to be very smart, and his mood was bright, he put his arm around his shoulders and smiled: "Then is my plane ticket reimbursed by you, and I work so hard, is there any reward?" ”
Yang Biao and Zhang Shuo looked at each other, Yang Biao coughed, and said first: "I will reimburse you for your air ticket and accommodation, and you will settle the bill together when you come back." ”
"I knew my uncle would say that." Yang Sanshi smiled slyly and squinted at Zhang Shuo, "What about the reward?" ”
Zhang Shuo was one head and two big, and said stupidly: "What reward do you want?" ”
Yang Sanshi looked at the little white rabbit with the expression of a wolf grandmother, stared at Zhang Shuo's back cold, and grinned again, "What do you say?" ”
Zhang Shuo didn't seem to be able to stand Yang Sanshi's inhuman gaze, and wiped the cold sweat on his head, "How do I know what you want?" ”
"You see so many treasures on you, do you want to give me one or two pieces of self-defense? It's not in vain that I and you were born and died, and you promised to teach me two tricks, and when this matter is over, do you want to cash it out together? ”
Zhang Shuo's mind was full of black lines, daring to love this kid had already calculated, the more he thought about it, the more unhappy he felt, but he was helpless at the moment, and finally said in a discouraged manner: "Okay, I promise you, when this matter is over, I will give you two magic weapons to defend yourself, and then teach you two tricks, okay?" ”
Yang Sanshi's face was solemn, "Then thank Master Zhang here first." ”
Zhang Shuo was angry and funny, and patted the hand on his shoulder, "Go away, don't pretend to be B for me." ”
Yang Biao couldn't help but laugh, and reminded the two of them loudly, "Ahem... It's not early, are we packing up and leaving? ”
Zhang Shuo and Yang Sanshi nodded with a smile, and the three of them worked together to clean up the table and morgue that they had just knocked over, Zhang Shuo tore off the talisman paper on Luo Yan's right hand, and carefully wiped the blood on her face with wet wipes, and said with some sadness: "Luo Yan, don't worry, I will find a way to help you exceed your soul, so that you can be buried as soon as possible, I hope you will have smooth sailing in the next life, and there will be no more disasters." ”
Yang Sanshi's face was also a little gloomy, and he patted Zhang Shuo on the shoulder, "Let's go." ”
Zhang Shuo nodded, and was about to retrieve the copper mark pressed on Luo Yan's corpse, when the ground under his feet suddenly shook strongly, and then the whole room also shook, the lights in the room flickered continuously, and the illuminated room flickered brightly and darkly, even the lights on the corridor outside the window!
The three of them were shocked, and they held the table respectively, and Yang Sanshi was even more nervous: "What's the matter?" Earthquake? ”
Zhang Shuo was alert, and an indescribably strong sense of crisis made the hairs on his body stand up, and suddenly he thought of something, and said in a lost voice: "Oh no, it's that thing!" ”
Yang Sanshi and Yang Biao looked at him blankly, Zhang Shuo couldn't care less, and hurriedly opened the Qiankun bag, took out a few pieces of silver rune paper, and pasted them on Yang Sanshi and Yang Biao's foreheads respectively, and then pasted one himself, "Hide in the corner, don't make a sound." ”
Before the two of them could react, they were pulled by him to hide in the innermost corner and squat, at this time, the ground stopped shaking, and only the lights were still flashing. The three of them breathed and looked left and right very nervously.
There was a loud bang, and the door of the morgue seemed to be slammed open by a powerful air current! Under the horrified gaze of the three of them, three inky black gases shot in from outside the door like smoke, scurrying around the room, emitting a rotten and disgusting stench!
Yang Biao and Yang Sanshi's hearts were about to jump to their throats, with cold sweat behind their backs, Zhang Shuo was better than them, trying to calm down their tension and signaling them not to make a sound, and those few black gases swayed for a while, and finally gathered together, forming a black "figure" more than two meters high, suspended in front of Luo Yan's corpse!
A dead gray hand suddenly stretched out from the black shadow, and under closer inspection, the hand was covered with rotting sores, dripping with dark red pus, and the pitch-black nail cover was covered with curved nails, which were more than five inches long, and it was slowly stretching towards Luo Yan's corpse!
Taken by the terrifying and disgusting scene in front of him, Yang Sanshi gasped, if it weren't for Zhang Shuo's quick eyes and tightly covering Yang Sanshi's mouth, I'm afraid he would have screamed a long time ago, Yang Biao next to him was also pale, trembling slightly, clenching his fists tightly, and he didn't say a word.
Just when that hand was about to touch Luo Yan's neck, Luo Yan's chest suddenly flashed with golden light, and the hand was like being burned, and the black smoke quickly retracted, and a heart-rending scream came out of the black smoke!
Zhang Shuo's pupils shrank, and he looked at Luo Yan's corpse thoughtfully, and the hand stretched out again, quickly grabbing Luo Yan's chest!
"Roar!!!"
This time, before he could meet it, the strong light on Luo Yan's chest was even stronger, and the black shadow roared violently under the golden light explosion, and was forced back several meters by this dazzling light, and now the black gas of that hand was even thicker, and even the white bones could be seen in decay, and finally retracted into the black shadow, and never stretched out again.
The black shadow let out a roar of pain and anger one after another, shaking the glass on the wall and the lamp tube on the top one after another, shattering into a large pile of crackling and falling down, the three of them hurriedly covered their ears and lowered their heads to prevent being scraped by the fragments, but the golden light on Luo Yan's chest did not decrease at all, and the black shadow roared a few times unwillingly, and finally turned into three black gases, flew away quickly towards the door, and disappeared without a trace!
At this moment, the golden light gradually dimmed, and after a few seconds, the three of them looked up, and all the lights in the room were broken, except for the lamps in the corridor, and the mixed glass shards fell to the ground, and the whole room was even more in a mess.
The three of them slowly stood up, patted the fragments on their bodies clean, and looked at this sudden change, not knowing what to say, especially thinking of the scene a minute ago, compared to what it has become now, the three of them are all shocked and inexplicable.
Zhang Shuo stretched out his hand and took down the silver talisman attached to his head, "Take down the talisman!" Yang Sanshi and Yang Biao handed the silver runes to Zhang Shuo, Zhang Shuo pinched and shook them, and the three silver runes strangely turned into a burst of fly ash and fell to the ground!
Yang Sanshi is okay, after all, similar methods have been seen, but Yang Biao is the first time he has seen it, and he can't close his mouth in surprise.
Yang Sanshi asked curiously, "What kind of talisman is this?" Why can't you see us in that puff of smoke? ”
This is the "invisibility talisman" used for the spirit, it is a very advanced special spell, the person who draws the talisman must be profound, no distractions, otherwise it is useless to draw, as long as it does not make a sound, it will not be seen by the spirit, only we ordinary people can see ourselves, originally I had five, or my master gave it, I didn't expect to use three at once just now, but fortunately, there is it, otherwise we are all dead now! Zhang Shuo said regretfully.
Yang Biao and Yang Sanshi suddenly realized, they were both shocked, they didn't expect such a magical spell, and at the same time they were a little afraid, if they didn't have these few runes or a little later, they would definitely die, thinking of the strange hand stretched out from the black shadow, both of them felt a shudder.
Zhang Shuo walked in front of Luo Yan's corpse, took a complicated and incomprehensible look, picked up the bronze talisman, turned it to the back and looked at it, there was a little residual cinnabar mark on it, and there were eight big characters engraved in the seal body "The right way is Qiankun, the mighty spirit lasts forever", Zhang Shuo read it silently once, and then put the copper seal into the Qiankun bag.
And there were still bursts of rancid stench in the air, Yang Sanshi covered his nose, ran to Zhang Shuo and said in shock: "Old Zhang, that black shadow is the evil spirit you said?" ”
Yang Biao couldn't stand the stench, and looked at the two of them with an inquiring look covering his mouth and nose, Zhang Shuo nodded, "That's right, that's it, let's take care of the food here first." ”
"What's going on, what's going on? Was it an earthquake just now? ”
"That's right, huh? Why is the glass all shattered? ”
"Go in and see, wow, why is the lamp broken?"
“......”
At this time, several people came in from outside the door one after another, namely the doctor, the administrator and two policemen, and when they saw the mess here, they asked in a big voice.
Zhang Shuo didn't care so much, quietly made a look at Yang Sanshi, and said to Yang Biao: "Uncle Yang, I'll leave it to you here, let's go first and contact by phone." Yang Biao nodded heavily, "Okay." ”
The two quickly exchanged numbers, and before the others came to their senses completely, Zhang Shuo pulled Yang Sanshi and passed through the cracks, and hurriedly went out, everyone reacted, and the two policemen saluted Yang Biao: "Report Officer Yang, we were patrolling outside just now, and saw that this building suddenly shook for a while just now, and it was suspected that it was caused by the earthquake, so we patrolled around, and I heard that you are here, let's take a look with Dr. Liu and the administrator, are you okay?" ”
Yang Biao replied, "Well, we felt it just now, but it's all right, find someone here to clean it up." ”
"Yes!" The two young policemen responded in unison, and the administrator and the doctor Liu suddenly covered their mouths and noses, "Why is it so stinky inside?" "yes, why does it stink so much?"
The two policemen also smelled the stench, and couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses, and one of them asked Yang Biao puzzled, "Officer Yang, why does the damage here seem to be more serious, and it still stinks?" ”
Yang Biao said lightly: "Maybe the earthquake collapsed the public toilet next to it." ”
“.......”
---------------------
Zhang Shuo and Yang Sanshi got out of the hospital, looked around and didn't find anything abnormal, just took a taxi on the side of the road, Zhang Shuo looked at the time, and said to Yang Sanshi: "It's almost twelve o'clock, it's better for us to go back early, just in case." ”
Yang Sanshi nodded, just as a taxi passed by, the two negotiated the price and got into the car, there was no communication along the way, thinking about something.
About half an hour, the two arrived at the hotel where they were staying before, and Yang Sanshi couldn't hold back as soon as they got out of the car, "Lao Zhang, I was thinking just now, is Luo Yan's appearance a "fraudulent corpse"? Why don't I feel right? ”
Zhang Shuo glanced at him, with a look of appreciation in his eyes, "You observed carefully, yes, Luo Yan was not just a corpse just now, but became a resentful corpse!" ”
"Resentful corpses?"
"Well, the ordinary corpse fraud is the unconscious behavior of the corpse, the corpse is attracted by the yang energy of the living person for some reason, causing the yin and yang to attract the living person, and it will pounce on the living, but it will not attack the living person, as long as it is far away, it will not be sensed, but the resentful corpse is different, the corpse must be unjustly and hateful, and the resentment in the chest does not disperse, resulting in the corpse change produced by the thunderstorm and the night, and Luo Yan's corpse is blessed with the "ghost slave curse", so it stimulates its resentment even more, the corpse has opened its wisdom and knows how to kill to vent its anger, so ordinary people will definitely die when they encounter itIf it weren't for that token, it might not have been able to suppress it, let alone resolve grievances. ”
"Did that thing come to the hospital to control Luo Yan's body?"
"I don't think so, if it wants to control the corpse, even if it is far away, it doesn't have to go through a lot of trouble to come, probably because it suddenly can't find Zeng Wen, and suddenly can't sense the "ghost slave spell" on Luo Yan's corpse! I guess it already knew someone in the wizarding world was involved, and it had actually injured it unsuspectingly, so it would have been more careful before it was completely unsealed! ”
"Is that thing badly hurt?"
"I don't know, but I think the injury is very light, it didn't hurt its vitality, it's just a surprise and a miracle effect, next time it won't be so easy to deal with!"
........
The two chatted while walking, and when they returned to the outside of the room, Yang Sanshi wanted to knock on the door to see if Lu Meihang had slept or not, but was stopped by Zhang Shuo, "Forget it tonight, they are all tired, we will get up at six o'clock tomorrow morning, and then you call Lu Meihang, let Zeng Wen contact that Li Qiuchan, and then ask Li Qiuchan to contact the other two girls, and I will talk to them later, now go back to sleep first." ”
Yang Sanshi thought about it, so the two went back to the room, and after Yang Sanshi washed up, Zhang Shuo went in to take a bath, while Yang Sanshi lay on the bed and booked a plane ticket.
The warm water sprayed out of the shower, drip by bit on Zhang Shuo's face, Zhang Shuo's whole body was suddenly very comfortable, and his irritable mood was also relieved, but what kind of encounter will be tomorrow, no one can predict, thinking of this, Zhang Shuo is a little uneasy.
Out of the bathroom, Zhang Shuo wiped the water on his head and said to Yang Sanshi: "Have you booked the plane ticket?" ”
"Okay, fly to Hangzhou at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, and I'll go to the West Lake Lingyin Temple!"
"Why go there?"
"Because of Jigong! Didn't he practice in the TV series in Lingyin Temple? ”
“......”
The two of them fell asleep with a few casual words, Yang Sanshi was relieved, and he snored after a while, only Zhang Shuo was worried, tossing and turning, and tossing until almost two o'clock before falling asleep......
At six o'clock in the morning the next day, the mobile phone alarm clock rang non-stop, which woke up Zhang Shuo, who was dreaming, and took the mobile phone to look at the time with his worried eyes, and immediately woke up a lot, turned off the alarm clock and quickly got up to change clothes.
"Lao Yang, Lao Yang, wake up, get up!"
"Whew... Call... Whew..."
“......”
Zhang Shuo saw that Yang Sanshi was sleeping like a dead pig, and he was snoring leisurely, he suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, he lifted Yang Sanshi's quilt angrily, kicked him on the buttocks, and scolded in his mouth: "Dead pig, get up quickly, go to the West Lake to find Jigong!" ”
"Huh...? What time is it? Yang Sanshi muttered sleepily.
"It's six o'clock, get up and call Meihang them, and we'll be over in half an hour! Hurry up. ”
"Okay....." Yang Sanshi sat up reluctantly, stretched and yawned, "I'll fight now!" ”
Zhang Shuo wordlessly glanced at Yang Sanshi, who began to flip through his mobile phone, dressed himself, went in to wash, and after everything was taken care of, Yang Sanshi got dressed, and told Zhang Shuo about the situation before washing, it turned out that Lu Meihang and Zeng Wen had been awake for a while and were washing.
At about half past six, Zhang Shuo and Yang Sanshi came to Lu Meihang's room, and the four of them got together and started talking, but Yang Sanshi and Zhang Shuo didn't tell them what they had experienced last night, otherwise they would have to worry about it again.
"What? Are you going to Hangzhou? Lu Meihang was surprised.
Yang Sanshi smiled bitterly, put his hand on Lu Meihang's knee, and said softly: "Yes, I went there to move the rescue soldiers, Lao Zhang said that he alone can't protect people and fight monsters at the same time, so he has no choice but to let me go out!" ”
Lu Meihang was worried, and said with concern: "Will there be danger?"
"Don't worry, there will be no danger, I may come back later with the rescuers if I go today, you obediently wait for me to come back, pay attention to your own safety."
Zhang Shuo saw that Lu Meihang looked nervous, and he was still very worried, and he also said: "Don't worry Meihang, he will be fine, I can guarantee you this!" ”
Hearing Zhang Shuo say this, Lu Meihang was a little relieved, "Then you go early and come back early, be careful, and call me when you arrive." ”
Yang Sanshi touched Lu Meihang's head lovingly, feeling very reluctant, but he knew that the matter was important at the moment, and something would happen if he was one step later, "Don't worry, I promise that I will come back safely, then I will go to the airport, you don't have to send it." Then he got up and left.
"Sanshi, be careful, tell us when it's time." Zeng Wen also said with concern.
Yang Sanshi nodded, "You should also be careful, stay by Lao Zhang's side, he will protect you!" ”
Lu Meihang reluctantly sent Yang Sanshi to the door, and Zhang Shuo suddenly said: "Old Yang, be careful in everything, it's up to you this time, I'll wait for you." ”
Yang Sanshi laughed, stretched out his thumb and pointed at himself, and said hesitantly: "Don't worry, there is me outside, I'll leave it to you here, take good care of them!" Scratch some skin, I'm the only one who asks! ”
"Definitely!" Zhang Shuo solemnly promised.
"Then I'll go, see you later." Yang Sanshi kissed Lu Meihang and whispered in her ear: "Wife, wait for me." ”
Lu Meihang bit her red lip, and even though she was reluctant, she still had to say, "Okay, I'll wait for you." ”
Yang Sanshi looked at Lu Meihang seriously, then at Zhang Shuo and Zeng Wen, and then did not speak again, turned around silently, and closed the door gently after going out.
After Yang Sanshi left, Lu Meihang's nose was sour, her heart was soft, her eyes were slightly red, and she stood at the door in a daze.
Zeng Wen felt something, stepped forward to help Lu Meihang to sit down and comforted softly, Lu Meihang slowly adjusted her breathing and gradually calmed down.
Zhang Shuo relieved Lu Meihang, and promised: "Meihang, I know you are reluctant to Lao Yang, he just went out to find someone this time, and it will be fine, I promise you, don't worry." ”
Lu Meihang felt a little better, "Thank you Zhang Shuo, I believe it." ”
Zhang Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, and then said solemnly: "Okay, now do what I said before, Xiaowen, you immediately call Li Qiuchan, tell her the seriousness of the matter, and let her be sure to contact the other two girls, and once they are connected, they will immediately gather at the art academy." ”
"Okay, I'll contact her right away." Zeng Wen nodded, and then went to the bathroom to call Li Qiuchan.
"Meihang, this matter is very dangerous, if you are not a victim, don't get involved, otherwise the more people I have, the more difficult it will be for me to protect, you will live in this hotel, I will inform you if there is any news."
“...... So what about Xiaowen? ”
"I'll protect her, don't worry, I'll go out to buy something to eat now, and I still have an important call to make." Zhang Shuo replied.
Lu Meihangmei's eyes showed a look of doubt, "Important call? ”
"I'm looking for someone and I need help from the police...!"
