Chapter 18: The Wraiths

The two children beside the old man who raised ghosts were the two boys and girls who caught Xiang Huairen, he carried a green lantern and led the two resentful spirits to pass by Xiang Huairen, stopped and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't be afraid, I'll find you someone to accompany you on the Huangquan Road, oh!" Forgot, your ghosts are going to be my children's food, and you can't go to Huangquan Road, hahaha", and then led the two ghost children out.

Xiang Huairen listened attentively, until there was no footsteps at all, then turned his head, endured the sharp pain in his eyes and looked at his right hand, the entire right wrist was entangled by a cloud of yin qi, Xiang Huairen turned to the right side, fortunately, due to the old man who raised ghosts got carried away with his left hand, Xiang Huairen held down the yin qi with his left hand and pulled his right head vigorously and looked in the direction of the old man raising ghosts from time to time, for fear that he would come back at this time.

Xiang Huairen knew that once he couldn't escape before the old man came back, he would definitely die, more than three minutes passed, Xiang Huairen was sweating profusely, but the yin qi in his right hand still didn't move, and the sharp pain in his eyes made him close his eyes, he forced himself to calm down, gasping for breath, his head turned quickly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration.

Xiang Huairen untied one of the two red ropes around his neck, and the copper coin sword sent by Yan Wei was taken out of his clothes by Xiang Huairen, Xiang Huairen didn't know if this thing was useful, but at this time he could only use a dead horse as a live horse doctor, he opened his bloodshot eyes, although he was no longer looking at yin qi with his eyes, but he still felt a faint pain, Xiang Huairen looked at the position of his right wrist, raised the copper coin sword with his left hand and cut it down.

With a "poof" sound, Xiang Huairen's right arm regained its freedom, useful! Xiang Huairen sat up with joy and slashed at his ankle "poof" and "poof" twice, Xiang Huairen ran down from the table and ran in the direction where the old man raised ghosts went out, didn't run two steps and stopped, looked back at the bones of the two resentful spirits, and ran back to tie the copper coin sword around his waist, grabbed the two bones of the Tang costume and dragged the two bones out of the wooden basin, Xiang Huairen didn't know why he did this, he just vaguely felt that the bones of these two children must have something to do with the two little ghosts.

The two corpses were sticky with slimy liquid flowing down the clothes to the ground, Xiang Huairen didn't have time to care what it was, he ran out with the bones of the two resentful spirits, and after running through the three cellars that were the same as just now, Xiang Huairen's back was cold, and the roofs of the other three cellars were also full of corpses, no wonder the police did not find the figures, they were all hidden in the cellar, and a minute later Xiang Huairen pushed open a door and walked out of the ancient tree in the courtyard of the old man who raised ghosts, and the old drunkard and Yan Wei in the yard were fighting with the two ghosts and the old man raising ghosts.

As soon as Xiang Huairen appeared, several people looked at him, and before the old ghost raised the old man spoke, the resentful spirit twins had already rushed towards Xiang Huairen, the old drunkard and Yan Wei quickly blocked in front of Xiang Huairen, the old drunkard shouted, "Little cub, run, burn the two corpses, these two resentful spirits will be scattered", Xiang Huairen also felt that the two corpses must be related to the resentful spirit twins, as soon as he heard the old drunkard say this, he didn't dare to delay and ran towards the door, the two heavy wooden doors had fallen to the ground, Xiang Huairen's speed was not affected, and he rushed out, The evil spirit twins and the old man who raised ghosts were blocked by the old drunkard at the door.

Xiang Huairen ran all the way and didn't come back, after bypassing the old locust tree, he ran for a long time before Xiang Huairen turned around and saw that no one was chasing him, slowed down and planned to find a place to burn the bodies of the two resentful spirits, when passing by the gate of a courtyard, Xiang Huairen felt that his mouth was covered by a cold hand, and his neck was also strangled by a cold arm, and then he was dragged into the courtyard, and a woman's figure stood in front of him and made a silent gesture to him and said, "Shh! Don't worry that our husband and wife won't hurt you, don't shout", Xiang Huairen nodded and said yes, the person behind him let go of Xiang Huairen and stood in front of him, Xiang Huairen began to look at the couple in the moonlight, about thirty years old, the man was wearing orange overalls, and the woman was wearing a red top.......

Xiang Huairen couldn't help but snort, the couple was clearly the dry corpse couple in the cellar, Xiang Huairen said in horror, "You! You two are not ......", without waiting for Xiang Huairen to finish speaking, the male ghost covered Xiang Huairen's mouth again and said, "You be quiet, that's right, we are indeed not people, they are ghosts, and they were killed by Ma Zhuang a month ago, the house you just came out of is Ma Zhuang's house, you can rest assured that we will not harm you, otherwise you would have died a long time ago......", "Dabao, Erbao, my hard-working child~" Without waiting for the male ghost to finish speaking, the female ghost cried and snatched the bones of the two resentful spirits from Xiang Huairen's hands, hugged them in her arms and cried, the male ghost looked at the two corpses in the arms of the female ghost, He let go of Xiang Huairen's mouth, hugged the female ghost and cried.

However, both of them thought that the ghosts had long been gone without tears and could only let out a whining cry, Xiang Huairen understood the situation and did not shout, but silently watched the couple holding the bones of their children in pain, half a sound, the two ghosts stopped crying, and began to look at the two corpses quietly, Xiang Huairen saw that the two ghosts did not have any ill will towards him, sighed and asked, "Can you tell me what happened in this village?" ”。

The male ghost turned his head and looked at Xiang Huairen, calmed down and said: "Four months ago, our child Dabao Erbao was lost, our husband and wife searched for two months, and found all the places they should find, but there has been no figure of their brothers and sisters, two months ago, the village disappeared for two days in a row, more than 40 households, and our remaining few people were forcibly transferred to other residences, but our husband and wife are afraid that if their brothers and sisters go home, there will be no one to take care of them?" His brother and sister are only five years old! Nothing, so a month ago secretly ran back, to the third night of the home, Ma Zhuang came, we have not seen him thought he also disappeared, although he became the appearance of an old man, but a village for decades of life we still recognize him, did not wait for my husband and wife to speak he couldn't help but say choked the necks of the two of us, I don't know why his dry hands have so much strength, soon our husband and wife were strangled to death by him, after the soul left the body, we were bound by the yin energy emanating from Ma Zhuang's body, I saw Ma Zhuang followed by Dabao Erbao and their brothers and sisters, but their brothers and sisters' eyes were full of resentment, Ma Zhuang let Dabao Erbao eat my husband and wife, the two of us desperately shouted their names, and gradually Dabao Erbao's eyes recovered and began to fight with Ma Zhuang, and let our husband and wife run quickly, after which the two of us began to hide in the village and did not dare to let Ma Zhuang see us again, until today."

Xiang Huairen let out a long sigh after hearing this, and said, "It turns out that you are really the biological parents of that pair of resentful spirits", the female ghost heard Xiang Huairen's meaning, as if she had seen her own child, and asked excitedly: "Little brother, have you seen their brother and sister?" Are they okay? ”。

Xiang Huairen nodded and said, "I did see their brother and sister, but their brother and sister seem to be unconscious, only listen to the order of the man named Ma Zhuang, and their brother and sister are about to become evil, although I don't know what it means, but I know that the people in your entire village were ordered by Ma Zhuang to kill their two brothers and sisters, and if you don't stop it now, many people will definitely die."

The female ghost asked, "How to stop it?" Xiang Huairen was silent for a while and said, "Burn the two corpses", and the male ghost asked, "What will happen to the two treasures?" Xiang Huairen's face was full of embarrassment, he really couldn't bear to tell them, after hesitating for a long time, Xiang Huairen still said "the soul is scattered"

"No", the two ghosts shouted out, and the female ghost said excitedly, "When his brother and sister were alive, our husband and wife didn't protect them well, and now they are dead, and our husband and wife don't allow anyone to hurt them!" Husband! The male ghost nodded knowingly, Xiang Huairen's eyes were black and fainted, and before he lost consciousness, Xiang Huairen heard the last sentence that the female ghost said, "It's okay to be stunned, don't kill him."

At this time, under the big locust tree, the old drunkard sat on the stone bench and drank wine, Yan Wei also sat on the stone bench and wiped his sweat, his eyes stared at Ma Zhuang, that is, the old man who raised ghosts, the resentful spirit twins were separated by the old drunkard and trapped in two trapped ghost arrays, each of which was tied to the limbs and neck of the resentful spirits with five iron chains of blue flames, and Ma Zhuang sat on the ground with his back against the earthen wall, his eyes stared at the old drunkard, because he was panting, his throat made a moaning voice that seemed to be nothing, and said, "Who are you?" It's even worse than those eight stinks combined."

The old drunkard put away the wine gourd, looked at Ma Zhuang with interest, and said, "Young man, it should be you out of disadvantage now, right?" It should be the poor way to ask you questions, right?"

Ma Zhuang's wrinkled face showed a disdainful expression: "Oh, is it? Saying that, Ma Zhuang tore the clothes on his chest, bit his tongue, sprayed a mouthful of black blood on his right hand, and was about to wipe it on his chest, Yan Wei shouted, "Stop him, he wants to summon that powerful ghost", before Yan Wei finished speaking, the old drunkard had already left, when Ma Zhuang's right hand was about to touch his chest, the old drunkard grabbed his hand with his left hand and pressed it on the wall, and his right hand took out a coffin Ding Ding didn't hesitate to go up, the old drunkard's action did not stop and fixed Ma Zhuang's left hand on the wall, and the wrinkles on Ma Zhuang's face were gathered together, The old drunkard didn't pay attention to him, but looked at some strange words and patterns on his chest.

A minute later, the old drunkard said suspiciously, "Yinwen? ", looked at Ma Zhuang's hideous expression and said, "This pain is far worse than those villagers killed by you", Ma Zhuang did not speak but looked at the old drunkard viciously, the old drunkard didn't care about taking out a copy of Ma Zhuang's information from the sackcloth, Yan Wei glanced at the information in the old drunkard's hand and asked curiously, "Old Huangtou, who gave you the information?" The old drunkard said casually, "Police", Yan Wei said angrily, "Hey, old yellow head, I said that you are too unsophisticated, while earning money, you still have to pit me for drinking, there is no such thing as you."

The old drunkard knew that he had leaked his mouth, and said embarrassedly, "Don't talk about this yet, there is another person", Yan Wei also felt that now was not the time to quarrel with the old drunkard, so he stopped talking, the old drunkard cleared his throat and looked at the information and read, "Ma Zhuang, thirty years old, his mother died of childbirth when he was born, and his father died of illness in bed at the age of fifteen, and his life has been ...... since then."

"Enough! Don't talk about it, I don't want to hear this", Ma Zhuang roared at the old drunkard, and the old drunkard put away the information and said, "Ma Zhuang, I have read your information, you don't have the opportunity to learn ghost arts, how did you learn it?" And why are you so old? And how can there be a yin text on your chest, if you don't answer Poor Dao, Poor Dao will crush the bones in your body little by little now, and you should avenge the whole village."

Of course, the old drunkard said this just to scare and scare Ma Zhuang, but the momentum must be there, after saying that, the old drunkard stared at Ma Zhuang angrily, Ma Zhuang also looked at the old drunkard viciously, and finally Ma Zhuang lowered his head first, the old drunkard was too strong, and his last killer weapon was subdued by the old drunkard before he had time to use it, and now he is poor in donkey skills, shook his head and said, "I said."

The old drunkard saw Ma Zhuang admit defeat and sat on the stone bench again and drank wine, Ma Zhuang's hoarse voice sounded, "One night four months ago, I had a dream, I dreamed of an old man, he told me about my life experience, and everything about me, he said that he would give me an ability to get me out of the current predicament, but I need to burn my life force before I can use it, and when I wake up, there is something more in my head, and the skin on my chest also appears like words that have been imprinted, and then you all know about me, I tortured to death the flesh and blood of the women I once liked but couldn't get, sealed their souls in my body, brainwashed them every day, fed them my blood, and soaked their bones in corpse oil to refine them into the Ghost Twins, but I was not satisfied, I wanted to refine them into evil, and began to let him devour ghosts in large quantities, which should have been successful a month ago, but at the critical time, the two Spirits regained consciousness and let their parents run away, and the Ghost Twins devouring their loved ones would be much more powerful than devouring other ghosts, So I kept looking for the couple's soul in the village, and until today, I was also confused for a while, and I ended up with a break today."

After listening to this, the old drunkard asked, "What is the person in your dream?" After thinking about it, Ma Zhuang said, "I can't see his face clearly, but he claims to be ...... Uh~ah~ah~ah~", when he said this, the yin text on Ma Zhuang's chest actually emitted a red light and black blood, and then Ma Zhuang's thin chest and abdomen were getting bigger and bigger as if they were inflated.

The old drunkard and Yan Wei saw that things were not good and just hid behind the locust tree, and Ma Zhuang exploded with a "bang", and for a while the flesh and blood flew sideways, and when the old drunkard poked his head out, the ground and walls of Ma Zhuang's position were soaked in black blood, and there were two more ghosts, one was a thin and thirty-year-old male appearance, it seemed that it should be Ma Zhuang's.
