Chapter 19: The Possession of the Shadow
When I heard the news, I was so distraught that I didn't want to listen to the rest of the story, and ran like crazy into the village.
If you want to say that in addition to my adoptive father, who do I have the best relationship with in the village, only Mai Xiang's sister-in-law, how can a good person go crazy after a night's work?
There was a loud shout behind him, and the first to catch up was the little leopard, followed by Jiang Xiaobai, who didn't say a word and went hand in hand with me.
When I entered the village, I didn't bother to go back to take a look, and immediately ran to Mai Xiang's sister-in-law's house.
The door of his sister-in-law's house was already full of people, talking to each other, and people were panicking, and his man's cry came from inside, and it was full of horror.
"It's Xiaoxi who is back!"
Seeing me coming, people got out of the way, and everyone knew that I had a good relationship with Mai Xiangsao.
After seeing the scene inside, my eyes were red, there was an old locust tree in front of her house, Mai Xiang's sister-in-law was tied to the tree by a big flower, her mouth was also strangled by an iron pillar with adhesive tape, and a rope was strangled around her neck, and she was bleeding.
Her man sat on the ground on one side, sighing and beating his chest.
"Who tied my sister-in-law like this?!" I questioned sharply and pounced on him to untie the rope.
"Xiaoxi, I can't solve it!"
As soon as I grabbed the head of the rope, her man grabbed my hand.
I was so angry that I almost kicked him, "This is your daughter-in-law, she was tied up like this, you don't care, why are you still stopping me?" ”
The rope is too tight, and if it goes on like this for a long time, the blood will not pass, and the body will die!
However, another hand reached over and grabbed me, this time it was Jiang Xiaobai.
"Something is wrong with this woman, I'm afraid I really can't unravel it." Jiang Xiaobai's delicate little hands grabbed my wrists, and it seemed that I didn't use much strength, but I couldn't break free.
I was so anxious to save people, I didn't care about anything else, and with my other hand, I tore the tape on Mai Xiang's mouth.
As soon as she tore it open, she squirted out a mouthful of sticky and fishy liquid and went straight to my front door.
"Get out of the way!"
Jiang Xiaobai's voice came from my ears, and then my body was crooked, and I was pulled away, avoiding the mouthful of slime.
Standing still and looking at it again, Mai Xiang's sister-in-law had a distorted face, grinning her bloody mouth, and laughed maniacally at me. Looking at her eyes again, they were gray and emotionless, only bloodthirsty and cold, and it was chilling to see.
When I saw these eyes, I was shocked and thought of those water monkeys, although their eyes were different, but their expressions were almost identical. It is unimaginable that such a look can appear on a living person.
"Oh my God! What the hell happened to my sister-in-law? "I was scared.
At this moment, a deep male voice came from behind her, "She is possessed by an evil spirit." ”
Turning his head, the person who came was dressed in a Taoist robe, with five locks of long beard, a peaceful face, and a fairy style, who was the Guyue Daoist of Zhongnan Mountain.
Seeing him coming, the villagers immediately calmed down and stopped whispering.
"Dao Chief, you mean, she's possessed by a ghost?" I asked hurriedly.
I've heard a lot about being possessed, but I've never seen it with my own eyes.
Her man stood trembling and cried, "I was fine when I got up last night, but suddenly I went crazy and bit the big yellow dog alive; If I hadn't run fast, I'd have given her ......."
"Don't say it again, that's evil so-called, it has nothing to do with her." Daoist Guyue raised his hand to interrupt her man and walked up to Mai Xiang's sister-in-law.
Seeing a living person approaching, Mai Xiangsao's eyes immediately showed ferocity, and she opened her mouth, as if she wanted to bite someone.
"Evil Barrier!" Dao Chang shouted, raised his right hand, and slapped a palm on Mai Xiang's forehead. This palm was so heavy that it made a crisp sound of "pop", and all the onlookers subconsciously closed their eyes.
After being hit by this palm, the sister-in-law's expression showed confusion, but it only lasted for a moment, and then she became more frenzied, trying to raise her head and want to bite the hand.
The Dao Leader sighed, retracted his hand, and slapped it with another palm.
This palm is not heavy, but as soon as it came into contact, Mai Xiang's sister-in-law's eyes darkened, her head hung down, and she passed out. Daoist Guyue's palm moved away, and a little red spot appeared on her eyebrows, faintly revealing strange characters.
"This is the soul calming talisman I just refined, and she knows that the evil in the sea has been suppressed and falls asleep." Daoist Guyue took a deep look at me, then turned to the villagers and said aloud: "If the poor Dao is not bad, there should still be people in your village who are possessed by evil spirits, but they have not yet attacked, they all come forward and let me investigate them one by one." ”
Hearing Gu Yue's words, the villagers were in an uproar and were terrified.
"Dao Chief, what the hell is going on?" I panicked and pulled Gu Yue to ask.
Gu Yue's eyes were as deep as a cold star, she glanced at me, and sighed: "This matter is a long story, after I have screened it, let's talk about it in detail." ”
I was pulled aside by Jiang Xiaobai, and she motioned with her eyes not to ask more.
"Men don't have to come, women under 30 and over 60 don't have to come, unmarried women don't have to, everyone else comes." Gu Yue said loudly and said the scope of screening.
When I heard about this strange condition and thought of something, my heart tightened.
Next, eligible women stepped forward one after another and gathered around Gu Yue, all looking nervous.
Gu Yue glanced at it, nodded, looked solemn, and stretched out her palm and slapped it on Aunt Wu's eyebrows.
Aunt Wu was shocked, her eyes suddenly darkened, her body was like soft noodles, she collapsed weakly on the ground, and fell asleep in an instant.
There was a commotion around, and it seemed that Aunt Wu, like Mai Xiang's sister-in-law, was also possessed by evil spirits, but she had not yet had a seizure.
"Lift it down, don't wipe off the sigil on your eyebrows." Daoist Guyue glared and shouted.
Two people immediately came up and carefully carried Aunt Wu down.
My fists clenched unconsciously, holding my breath, Aunt Wu, she also fed me milk when she was young......
Daoist Guyue slapped it with his second palm, and another woman fell to the ground and was hurriedly carried away, and the atmosphere at the scene was already tense to the extreme.
At this time, I was surrounded by deep fear, my body trembled involuntarily, and the second woman to fall down was also one of my mothers......
When the third woman fell, I felt dizzy, my eyes were black, and I was about to lose my support, and it was still my mother who fell.
There was a small noise in my ears, and I barely bothered to see that it was Aunt Yue and Wang Blind who were coming, and when they saw me shaking, they hurriedly held me up.
"Those two women, come and be screened too." Daoist Guyue said lightly, his gaze piercing like an awl.
The two aunts should have known the situation here, and each walked over with trepidation.
Looking at their backs, my heart jumped to my throat.
"You tap and hey!" The blind man exclaimed in a low voice: "My old bones are going to be crushed by you!" ”
Only then did I realize that I was so nervous that I grabbed the blind man and pinched his hands out of shape.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" I hurriedly apologized and continued to look over there.
At this point, I have determined one thing, so far, except for Zhou Lao Wu, all the people who have had accidents are my mothers who have fed me milk, is there any connection between the two?
Gu Yue's palm slapped on Aunt Yue's head, leaving a little bloodstain-like sigil, and after Aunt Yue's expression was hazy for a moment, she immediately regained her clarity and asked in a trembling voice: "Dao Chief?" I...... What do you think? ”
A flash of surprise flashed in Gu Yue's expression, and she nodded and said, "It's okay, you can go." ”
Aunt Yue breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave.
I almost collapsed as if I had collapsed, but fortunately I was supported by the blind man, and then I realized that I was cold and sweating. Finally, not every mother has an accident.
Next is Aunt Yuhe, who is also safe and sound after being tested by the runes.
After some testing, all the women went through it, and then another one fell, and now with Mai Xiang's sister-in-law, there are a total of five women possessed by evil spirits, and the others are safe. But they still have one thing in common – they are all my mothers.
There were more than a dozen of them who had been fed me, and about half of them, including the two who had died. After getting this final result, I still couldn't relax, and things still seemed a little weird.
The screening was over, and the unconscious women were carried to the village office one after another, and Daoist Guyue was also preparing to leave.
At this time, the blind man whispered to Jiang Xiaobai: "That needle ...... Don't let the head of the family take a look? ”
According to the original plan, we had to ask Daoist Guyue to identify the needle, and then we had to ask him if he was invited by the Dragon Tiger Little Heavenly Master.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaobai shook his head and said indifferently: "I don't think this Taoist priest has any ability, so he can't see anything, let's go home, I'm hungry......"
The blind man and I were dumbfounded, this girl actually ...... You know, that needle is likely to be very important evidence, and maybe you can find out who is behind it!
Jiang Xiaobai completely ignored the gaze of the two of us, beckoned the little leopard, and calmly walked in the direction of my house, "Phantom, let's go, there's nothing to see here." ”
At this time, looking at it again, Daoist Guyue had already gone away.
The crowd gradually dispersed, whispering to each other, I was very interested, and pulled down the blind man, "Forget it, let's go home too, I still have something to ask you." ”
The blind man followed me and walked back together, both of us preoccupied.
"Say, what's the matter with this evil possession?" I asked.
I want to figure out how these things work and see if I can analyze anything.
The blind man thought for a moment and explained, "This so-called evil possession is actually another evil soul entering the human body and occupying the body. ”
"And how long can this last?" I asked, "I mean...... Can it be occupied forever, for example, for twenty years? ”
The blind man shook his head with a wry smile, "This is impossible, the evil spirits are all yin spirits, and they will always cause damage after occupying the body, or it won't be long before the host will die, the moon will be in the sky, how can it be so long in twenty years; Unless ......"
I was relieved to hear it, but his "unless" made me nervous again, and I hurriedly asked, "Unless what?" ”
