The girl quickly got sideways into the car, "Bang!" The door slammed shut.

She still has something to hide from me, I can't just let her go!

I hurriedly looked around, but I didn't see any taxis nearby, so I had to stand helplessly on the side of the road and watch the back of the car driving away.

The girl's clue should be broken, and now she can only go directly to her school to investigate.

The watch shows that it is more than eight o'clock in the evening at this time, generally speaking, the primary and secondary schools should have been dismissed, but the full-time private high schools have evening self-study at night, and most students still live in the dormitory building when they sleep, so Qianjin High School is still operating normally.

Now go and investigate, and maybe there will be some unexpected gains.

After a moment's thought, I saddled my backpack on my back and decided to go a little further and find a taxi first.

Hannam seems to be a little more developed than Yangseong, with relatively well-developed infrastructure, and neat streetlights illuminating this spacious road. The houses on both sides of the road are also brightly lit, and there are all kinds of shops.

I unconsciously put my hand in my pocket and touched the paper ball, and I don't know if this thing is useful...

"Mu Lao, is that Mr. Yin and Yang also a servant?" I asked softly.

"Probably not." Mu Lao explained, "He doesn't have the fluctuation of ghost lights, so he must not be a watchman." And he didn't act when he noticed your identity, so he's not a night watchman. ”

I was confused that he wasn't a night watchman... It's not a watchman, but why can you use Taoism to drive away dead corpses? Could it be...

"Then he... It's the independents?"

"That's not right." Mu Lao decisively vetoed me, "Strictly speaking, he can't be counted as an independent. "Because only those who have broken away from the organization are called independents, and it seems that he has only relied on his own secret techniques to make a living, and has never joined any organization."

So he doesn't have any identity, doesn't he?... Could it be that ordinary people can also learn Taoism?

I became more and more puzzled: "So what is he coming from?"

The first time the old man saw him, he already noticed a hint of clues. On the heads of those dead bodies are the corpse suppression talismans made by people who are extremely high!"

"Zombie Talisman?" I bowed slightly, this is a rune paper that I have never seen before, and it seems to have the effect of manipulating dead bodies, I will have to pay attention to it when I go to the temple of Hades in the future.

"The corpse suppression charm can suppress the yin energy in the dead corpse, and control the dead corpse through the purple gold bell that can resonate with the dead corpse. Therefore, compared with the corpse talisman, the corpse suppression talisman is much gentler, and it does not require a huge amount of mental power to control, just relying on the bell in his hand can easily order the dead corpse. ”

I nodded lightly and asked, "Then why did he do this?" No one is bored enough to control a group of dead corpses that may turn into corpses wandering around, and he must have a purpose for doing so.

At first, I thought he was trying to use the dead bodies to kill the lives of the people on the bus in order to make money, but then I found out that he was wrong, he was just going to lead the dead bodies to a place.

"For money, of course. This method of expelling corpses is often used to move the graves of others. Usually, the family of the deceased, in order to obtain a treasure of feng shui and shade the future generations, will invite people like him to come and lead the body of the deceased to the desired place. And he will also be paid very well. ”

Mu Lao's tone paused slightly, and he said solemnly: "Therefore, this old man is a corpse chaser. ”

And so it was! I thought about this when I first met him, and I couldn't help but feel a little creepy. The "Xiangxi corpse chaser" that the old people often talked about when I was a child was really bumped into by me.

I was surprised and asked, "So, that old man is specifically trying to make money by chasing corpses?"

"Driving corpses is not necessarily for money, but those who still insist on this profession must be motivated by profit."

Mu Lao said slowly: "Xiangxi corpse chasing technique originated in ancient times, if someone dies in a foreign country, their corpse must be transported back to their hometown, one is that the descendants of Yan and Huang pay attention to the leaves fall back to the roots, and the other is to comfort the grief of the deceased's family. However, the traffic in Xiangxi is blocked, and it is very difficult to transport the corpse, at this time, the family of the deceased usually asks the corpse to drive the corpse. ”

I kind of understood what was going on with the expulsion of corpses, "So those dead bodies that were driven out were entrusted by the families of the deceased?"

"What is entrusted to what is entrusted is trusted, and it is not a dead man who can be driven away. Whoever is beheaded must have his head stitched together, and those who are hanged, and those who stand in a cage and die. Because these three kinds of grievances are in their hearts, they can use Taoist techniques to hook their souls back, calm them in their bodies with charms, and then make them stand and walk. Whoever dies of sickness, throws himself into a river, hangs himself, or burns his limbs with thunder and fire, cannot be driven away. The soul of the sick and dead has been hooked by the king of Hades, and it can be recalled by non-human beings; And the souls of those who throw themselves into the river and hang themselves are entangled by "substitution", and they may be in the process of handover, and the soul and body are not consistent; Those who are struck by lightning must be the most sinful, and those who are burned by fire are often not completely flesh and skin, and these two types of corpses cannot be driven away. ”

After listening to Mu Lao's explanation, I knew that there were still so many famous people in the business of driving corpses, and what surprised me the most was that there were really people who made a living by driving the corpses of the dead.

Mu Lao's voice did not have the slightest tone of contempt, but the tone was extremely respectful to the old man.

But there is another point that puzzles me, I originally thought that Dao art was monopolized by the three major organizations, but today I found that this is not the case: "Could it be that Dao art can be controlled by those who are not effective?"

Mu Lao's solemn words reached my ears: "It is not only that you have to become a servant to master the Taoist arts, the Taoist arts are originally from the people. Folk talents, Taoist masters, of course, are endless. Living under the same sky, both are nothing more than to make a living, so there is no distinction between high and low. Even some folk Taoist priests are still highly accomplished, and their Taoism is much more profound than those who organize special offerings. ”

"These folk master rune papers are all drawn by themselves, and all kinds of evil things are also created by themselves. In this respect, they are much more powerful than those of you who can only use ready-made artifacts to slay evil spirits. ”

Truly... These are Taoist priests with real knowledge, and we who serve will only use the ready-made items provided by the organization to achieve their prestige.

In the end, Mu Lao earnestly advised: "In the future, when you see such a capable person again, you must not underestimate it." ”

"I see." I licked my dry lips, it seemed that the old man was not an ordinary charlatan, and the fact that he was able to make a corpse suppression talisman showed that he still had quite powerful means.

At this time, I had walked a long way unconsciously, and my legs were gradually becoming a little sore.

Finally, under the lights in the distance, a taxi was speeding towards me.

I hurriedly took a step towards the middle of the road and waved at him.

But to my surprise, the taxi driver ignored me and drove past me at an even faster speed, as if he were looking at me as air.

I thought he already had a customer in the car, so he didn't pick me up anymore, but the moment the taxi passed me, I glanced through the window and looked inside, and there was no one in it except the driver!

What does that mean? Don't do any business at the door? Or is it... Is he in a hurry to get home from work? It's only past eight o'clock, so there should be a taxi to pick up the passengers.

I decided to go any further, and there was no one on the empty road, except for the cold wind whistling on my cheeks. I tightened my coat and walked on.

The shops on both sides of the road turned off their lights and closed as if they had agreed. The blurred outline immediately plunged into darkness.

This place... How do I feel, revealing an indescribable weirdness...

I didn't want to stay here for a second longer, so I quickened my pace and walked forward.

Suddenly, there was a faint sound behind him.

I jerked my head back and found that there was darkness behind me - a whole row of streetlights on the side of the road went out at such a rapid speed! And it keeps stretching forward, and the thick darkness seems to swallow the whole road! And quickly pounced on me!

Is there something wrong with the street lights? But this scene can no longer be explained by common sense!

An indescribable fear welled up in my heart, for it dawned on me that I was the only one left on the whole road!
