Chapter 17: The Bone Tapir
The man walked slowly towards this side, and his position happened to be backlit, so that I couldn't see his face at all. It can only be seen from the outline of his body that this person is not Tang Jie, but a relatively strong man.
He'd probably spotted me, but there was nowhere to hide in such a small room behind me. Seeing that this person was about to push the door, I just pulled the door open and ran away.
But before I could run out, I felt grabbed by someone, and with a very strong force, my feet almost left the ground, and the whole person hit the wall, and a hand pressed on my shoulder, making me unable to move.
At this time, I saw clearly through the moonlight that this person was none other than the head of the Ma family, Ma Biao!
It's over, this guy must be going to kill someone! I struggled desperately, and one hand couldn't help but touch the inside of my pocket, the charm that Uncle Tang gave me!
But Uncle Tang's own Taoist skills may not be Ma Biao's opponent, can this spell really work? No matter, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, I took out the charm, but I don't know if I was too nervous, the charm actually fell!
The strange thing is that after the spell landed, Ma Biao didn't have to press me hard, and actually said in a calm tone: "It's so late, what are you doing when you come out?" ”
I was taken aback: "I, I just came out to find Tang Jie, who knew that there was no one in the corridor." Tang Jie was also gone, and all the room doors were ajar. I tried to go downstairs, but I couldn't. So I had to find a random place to hide. ”
Ma Biao smiled coldly and gently picked the tip of his chin: "You turn around and see where you are." ”
What the? What does that mean? I subconsciously glanced back and was surprised to find that the room I just casually entered was actually my own room!
No, isn't my room supposed to be on the other side of the hallway? Wait, I was alone in the hallway just now, and I saw that the rooms on both sides were ajar, and the moonlight came in on both sides.
How is this possible? Regardless of whether it is a full moon or a lack of moon outside, the moonlight can only shine in from one direction, unless there are two moons in the sky, otherwise the windows of the two rooms facing opposite doors are facing the opposite direction, and it is impossible to see the moonlight at the same time!
"You must have been fascinated by the bone tapir." Ma Biao said.
"One-horned tapir? What's that? "I don't have any idea of this strange name.
"You can't see it." Ma Biao said as he pressed his hand on my shoulder, and as soon as I exerted force, I couldn't move again. I stood there, feeling as if my body wasn't my own, my eyes fixed on the horse, nervously looking at him.
Ma Biao took out a small teacup-like thing from his arms, picked it up with his thumb, and then raised his little thumb, compared a 'six' gesture, opened his mouth and blew, and a burst of turquoise flames suddenly appeared on his little finger.
Then, as he pinched his thumbs together, I saw the flames flickering in the little teacup, and he clasped it to my chest.
I thought that the teacup that had been roasted by the flames would be piping hot, but I didn't want it to be so cold that it seemed to have a suction force, as if it was trying to suck something out of my body. My heart was beating fast, and then something suddenly fell from my heart.
I'm horrified by the feeling, is the horse really going to take my soul away?
However, when I felt that the contents of my heart were sucked into the cup, Ma Biao took the cup and held it in his hand: "Come and see." ”
I leaned over and saw a chubby bug the size of a marble, swirling around in the cup. It was said to be a bug, but this thing had a horse's face and looked very strange.
"This thing is called a bone tapir, it should have been wandering around the corridor just now, and when you opened the door, it was directly attached to you." As he spoke, Ma Biao put his little finger into the cup, and the bone tapir actually hugged Ma Biao's fingers directly, and it turned into a pile of powder in a moment.
"What the hell is going on?" I still don't get it.
"It's called Ziqiong Pavilion, and it's the place of the Taoist Association. Since ancient times, Buddhism has built temples and ghosts, and set up towers to subdue demons. The more places where cultivators are concentrated, the more they suppress evil spirits.
In the underground of Ziqiong Pavilion, there are too many demons and evil cults. In the evening, it's inevitable that a few will sneak out and cause trouble. This yin and yang and reincarnation are dominant, which is the way of heaven, so the colleagues here did not violently suppress it, but chose to avoid its edge at night. Don't get into trouble.
You don't know the rules, you go out casually at night, and you're targeted by the bone tapir, this beast likes to devour people's memories the most, creating illusions to make people lose their minds, you're lucky, you finally ran into me. Ma Biao said.
When I heard Ma Biao say this, I was surprised to realize that in this way, didn't Ma Biao save my life just now? So is this person a good person or a bad person?
Before I could ask, Ma Biao suddenly squatted down, picked up my amulet from the ground, and shook it in front of me: "Boy, let me ask you where this thing came from?" ”
I frowned, thinking of Uncle Tang in my heart, and I was immediately reluctant to take care of the horse watch.
Looking at my expression, Ma Biao smiled coldly: "Hmph, if you don't say it, I can basically guess." Do you really know what this thing is for? ”
Hearing him say this, I couldn't help but take over the conversation: "This is my talisman, of course it protects me!" ”
"Amulet?" Ma Biao's expression looked as if he had heard a funny joke: "This thing can protect you, then hell!" This thing is called the Yin Rim Charm. Listen, it's the yin edge, the yin of hell in the underworld, and the fate of fate. It is used to repair ghost wives.
The person who gave you this talisman paper, if it is not for ulterior motives, is to have this outright hatred with you! will give you such a poisonous and spicy charm. ”
"You're talking nonsense, you're just trying to sow discord! You lied to me! I said through gritted teeth.
Ma Biao contemptuously stuffed the talisman paper to me: "If you don't believe it, you can keep it." But don't blame me for not telling you, if you burn the wedding post, you just risk death.
If this yin talisman gets the blood of a man, or sucks the yang energy from your body, your ghost wife will inevitably suffer from the burning of the fire and the pain of life. ”
This sentence is like a touch of cold water, splashed on me all of a sudden, Qin'er's attitude towards me suddenly changed greatly, is it related to this thing?
At this moment, inside the door opposite us, there was a sudden scream!
