Chapter 13 The locust tree raises ghosts
I followed Yuan Zhen's words and asked what happened?
Yuan Zhen didn't answer, and said to me directly: "Go to the widow's house you said first." ”
I hummed.
I asked Xiao not to go at night and stay at home to take care of his grandfather. Xiao Wanwan answered, and we went to Chunhua's house, at this point, the villagers should clean up and go to bed after eating.
After arriving, Chunhua's house really didn't turn on the lights.
Yuan Zhen asked me to knock on the door. I have broken through the empty door during the day, which will be a little weak, Yuan Zhen asked me not to grind, I had to raise my hand to knock on the door, but as soon as my hand fell on the door, the door opened with a creak, I was strange, and shouted, Sister Chunhua.
But no one answered, and the room was surprisingly quiet. I thought to myself, I can't sleep so hard.
Yuan Zhen also stepped forward, with a solemn expression, and walked inside, I followed behind, and I continued to call Sister-in-law Chunhua, but the house was quiet, and after a while, I smelled a strange smell, I asked Yuan Zhen and said, Master, you didn't smell anything?
Yuan Zhen said directly: "The smell of the dead." ”
Yuan Zhen's words instantly made me nervous a little, I felt the switch in Chunhua's house and turned the light on.
I searched all the rooms, but I didn't see anyone. Needless to say, the carpenter was nowhere to be found. But in the bedroom, the strange smell was even more intimidating.
I wondered where the smell came from, I swept my eyes around, and finally found a wooden board in the room, I knew it was the basement, I crouched down and opened the basement, as soon as I opened it, a strong rancid smell came, I quickly covered my nose, but I still felt my stomach churning.
Yuan Zhen looked indifferent, as if he had seen too much, and said, "Go down and have a look." ”
I answered, felt the switch in the basement, Yuan Zhen and I walked down, the basement was dimly lit, and the wooden ladder leading to the bottom was a long time, and it creaked when walking.
When I went down, I covered my mouth and nose tighter. The basement is not big, but it is dug quite deep. As soon as I went down, before I had time to look, Yuan Zhen patted his shoulder and said, "Look there!" ”
I looked and saw two corpses hanging in the basement, one large and one small, the corpses were tied around their necks like dried fish.
In an instant, my heart was drumming, a chill came directly to my heart, my breathing became rapid, the flashlight shone through, and I could still jam the tattered skin, and there were pus. Slowly I shifted the light to the corpse's face.
The two faces are none other than Haruka and her child.
The skin on my face was also rotten, and I was disgusted to look at. Finally, I couldn't hold back and threw up on the spot.
Yuan Zhen said: "Death is not simple, she was deliberately killed, you see that there is a wooden chisel on the top of her head." The wooden drill is inserted, and the soul is fixed, and if I guess correctly, the soul should be not far away. ”
I vomited for a while, and when I followed Yuan Zhen's words, I saw two corpses, one large and one small, with chisels on the brains.
It's just that I just saw Sister-in-law Chunhua during the day? And the appearance of these two corpses looks like they have been dead for a long time, and they are terrified when they think about it.
I called Master Yuan Zhen, Yuan Zhen had already walked out, I told him the doubts in my heart, and he hummed and said that my guess was right. Chunhua's house is watching from the old locust tree in the village, and the branches of the old locust tree are flourishing, reaching to the sky.
I followed Yuan Zhen to the locust tree, Yuan Zhen looked around, and found a piece of yellow paper, the yellow paper quickly spontaneously combusted in his hand, and a burst of light appeared, the light was not very bright, but the whole locust tree was reflected. I was stunned.
Yuan Zhen stood in the middle of the old locust tree, and suddenly shouted, "Come out." ”
After these words fell, a gust of wind came inexplicably, followed by a whining sound, which was a little weird.
I took a deep breath, and I always felt that there were many pairs of eyes staring at me, but in the next second, the crown of the old locust tree suddenly lit up with a dark green light, and there were more light spots. It feels cold.
Yuan Zhen stared at it tightly and said, "It's really a good means, the locust tree raises ghosts." ”
Yuan Zhen asked me to stand still and not move, he stepped forward by himself, and the whole old locust tree seemed to tremble. Yuan Zhen stood still in front of the canopy, his body very stable.
I can't see the name behind me, I can only wait, I look around, and suddenly I seem to meet another pair of eyes, those eyes are hidden behind the old locust tree, but after finding me, I immediately hid behind the tree, my heart tightened, and immediately called Yuan Zhen.
But Yuan Zhen ignored me, and time passed by by .
The eyes popped up again, and at this time, Yuan Zhen didn't know where he came from, he felt out the soul hook rope, and threw it forward, but he didn't see how far the soul hook rope was thrown, but the strange thing was that the figure behind the tree was detained.
And look at this figure, it looks like a living person.
Maybe the night was too dark, and I didn't see the appearance of the person clearly, so Yuan Zhen pulled the person back hard.
When I got closer, I was completely blindfolded, wasn't this person a stunned man who was already dead?
The second stunned man also looked at me, with a silly smile on his face, and as we looked at each other, I suddenly felt a little familiar, but this feeling was fleeting.
I muttered, "Aren't you dead?" ”
The second stunned didn't speak, still smirked, and immediately thought about what he could understand.
Hooking the soul rope hooked the second stunned, I told Yuan Zhen about the death of the second stunned, Yuan Zhen looked puzzled and said, "Is it dead?" ”
I replied to Yuan Zhen and said, "Master, he is really dead, and we buried him with our own hands." ”
Yuan Zhen stretched out his hand and touched the second stunned man, the second stunned turned his head and dodged, Yuan Zhen did not force his move, but asked me: "Do you think he is a little familiar?" ”
This is actually a question asked, and it is normal for the second person to be in the village for so long, and to be a little familiar.
But I was familiar, but not familiar, but I felt like I was myself.
I hummed.
Yuan Zhen suddenly smiled and said, "This game of chess is really big, Zhang Yan, didn't I tell you last time?" People are divided into three souls and seven spirits, and if there is no soul, they may become demented, but once the soul is complete, they will return to normal. ”
I didn't interrupt Yuan Zhen's words, and stared at Yuan Zhen.
Yuan Zhen's gaze stayed on the second stunned man and said, "Someone gave him your soul, and he is a normal person now." ”
I looked at the second stunned, he was still stupid, nothing had changed. The point is that isn't he already dead?
The second stunned man continued to smirk at me, no different from the beginning, I said to Yuan Zhen, "Master, are you mistaken?" ”
Yuan Zhen said to the second stunned: "Don't pretend, I'm arresting you, do you think you're still running?" The soul of my apprentice, you all dare to make up your mind, you are too bold. ”
The second stunned still didn't move.
Yuan Zhen didn't hesitate, he stretched out his hand to pull the soul rope back, and the second stunned suddenly let out a miserable scream, and began to break free with all his strength, and his eyes changed. It seems to have become a little clearer. Yuan Zhen told me to step back.
I hummed.
"You also have to take care of my business?" The second stunned man opened his mouth to speak, but the expression and tone of his voice did not look like a fool at all.
Yuan Zhen said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Regard, I have to take care of the unjust things in this world, let alone the affairs of my apprentice." ”
The second stunned man snorted coldly, pounced over, Yuan Zhen shook his big hand, his sleeve brought a strong wind, and the second stunned man kept retreating.
"Close!" As Yuan Zhen drank it, several faint green rays of light were dragged out.
Yuan Zhen stretched out his hand to stretch out his sleeve, and the faint green light directly entered the sleeve.
Yuan Zhen pressed his steps and walked towards the second stunned, but the second stunned seemed to suddenly go crazy, only to see a mouthful of blood spurting out of his mouth, and after the soul hooking rope that had originally trapped him was stained with blood, it was directly collapsed. Yuan Zhen took the soul hook rope. The second stunned man didn't love the war, turned around and ran.
Yuan Zhen took a step and chased after him.
I didn't dare to stay here myself, and I followed Yuan Zhen behind him.
One after the other, I chased to the Yellow River, but what I didn't expect was that the two stunned people jumped directly into the Yellow River, probably because of the rain a few days ago, the Yellow River was turbulent, and he quickly disappeared, Yuan Zhen stopped by the river and did not continue to chase forward.
Yuan Zhen glanced at it a few times and roared angrily: "Where is the water ghost?" ”
The sound was very loud, as if it was instantly overshadowed by the sound of the water waves of the Yellow River.
Not long after, there were water ghosts in the Yellow River, but they didn't go ashore, and after seeing the soul hook, the water ghosts directly coaxed and called out to adults. Yuan Zhen didn't seem to have time to deal with him. As soon as he opened his mouth, he said, "A man jumped into the water just now, and you help me bring him up." ”
The water ghost answered, and went in.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the water ghost came up and said in a trembling voice: "Back to my lord, the little one has not found a body and has not seen a living person." ”
Yuan Zhen stared at the water ghost for a few seconds.
The water ghost seems to be scared to pee, because this soul hook is only qualified to be used by the river god, so the water ghost is so afraid.
But in the end, Yuan Zhen didn't bother with the water ghost, and with a wave of his hand, he let the water ghost get out. The water ghost answered, and disappeared in a hurry.
I asked Yuan Zhen, "Master, is this the carpenter?" ”
Yuan Zhen shook his head and said that the people behind this are not simple, and these two stunned people are not simple. What else do I want to say. Yuan Zhen directly cut off my topic and said, your soul is back now, I will help you bring it back.
I hummed and said okay.
Yuan Zhen said to me solemnly: "Close your eyes, concentrate, and don't think about anything." ”
I did what Yuan Zhen said.
Yuan Zhen began to chant the mantra, like a broken recitation, I didn't hear it clearly, at any time he finished chanting, and finally said two words, unity. My body twitched uncontrollably, and then I began to cough loudly, coughing, coughing, and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The blood fell on the sand by the river, and it was black.
Yuan Zhen patted me on the back, helped me smooth out, and asked me, "How are you feeling now?" ”
I said it felt okay.
Yuan Zhen hummed and told me to be careful in everything in the future. With that, his gaze fell back on the river.
