Chapter 23: Yin Rat
I saw that his face was heavy, and I didn't dare to smile anymore, so I hurriedly said, "What? Are you not sure? ”
The crazy old man didn't answer directly, but his expression became heavier and heavier, and he muttered: "It's too late, that ditch is not short, even if the villagers are all on it, it will take a few days to cut off the source of yin qi, this thing has already discovered you, I'm afraid I can't hold it back." ”
The last stomped his foot and said: "That's it, I have to fight, and when the fight will start, you quit first, in case I have three long and two short, don't care about me, run as far as you can, and never come back." ”
When I heard what he said, I immediately panicked, and asked repeatedly, "What is it?" Is it so powerful? If you're not sure, should we get out of the way first? ”
The crazy old man said: "Judging from the description of the long lock just now, it should be a yin rat." ”
I hurriedly asked, "What is a yin rat?" Is that the big rat that Long Lock said? ”
The crazy old man nodded and said, "The yin qi gathers here, and the lonely souls and wild ghosts like to gather the most, and this place is also the favorite place for the yin rats." Yin rat refers to a mouse born in a coffin and grew up by devouring corpses.
"The one who stretched the lock out of the body just now must be a little ghost attracted by the yin qi, the little ghost is lonely, and when he sees a child of the same age, he naturally colludes to play. To put it bluntly, the little ghost is just a yin ghost, the most popular yin rat, and if you don't come early, now I'm afraid that the soul of the long lock will also be eaten. ”
When I heard him say this, I breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Not really! It's just a mouse, no matter how big it is, it's just a mouse, and the folks are all on it, so I don't believe that I can't kill it. ”
The crazy old man turned around sharply, stretched out his hand, and nailed it to my head, this time the blow was so heavy that my tears came down from the pain, and I hurriedly dodged back to prevent him from coming again.
The crazy old man didn't chase me, but just said angrily, "Who told you there was only one?" Rats are the easiest to swarm, and if they are so big that they are not detected, then there is only one possibility, that is, they have dug a hole downstairs and led to a certain place,"
"These yin rats have eaten human flesh and tasted human flesh, if they are not removed, I am afraid that it will not be long before they will turn their targets to the villagers in the village, and then they will ......."
Speaking of this, the crazy old man's face was worried, and I shuddered unconsciously, and I suddenly broke out in a cold sweat at the thought of dozens of pig-sized rats pouring out of the cave and devouring the villagers in the village.
Fortunately, the crazy old man's voice changed: "However, such a big yin rat is really rare, there shouldn't be many, I guess there may be only one." But the mouse is extremely sensitive, my Qimen technique may not be able to hit it, and because it devours human flesh all year round, and its teeth are stained with corpse poison, it is difficult to deal with. ”
I saw that the crazy old man looked heavy, and knew that he was not talking about playing, so I hurriedly said: "It's really not good, let's call more people, and everyone will work together." ”
The crazy old man shook his head and said: "No, this is not an ordinary murderous thing, as a hunter, I have the obligation to kill, but I can't let ordinary people get into danger, if one is not good, it will be a human life." ”
I just wanted to speak, but suddenly my heart throbbed, and I hurriedly turned my head to look at the building of Wang Gui's house, only to feel that in the building, the yin qi suddenly became much stronger, and my legs involuntarily took two steps back.
The crazy old man also sensed that something was wrong, hurriedly turned around, faced the building, only glanced at it, there was a trace of fear in his eyes, and he didn't reply: "Xiaohua, remember what I said, wait a minute, if something happens, you can run as far as you can, don't come back." ”
This is the first time that the crazy old man didn't call me Xiaohua, but I couldn't laugh or speak, I just pulled out the dagger that the crazy old man gave me just now, the crazy old man turned his head to look at me, and then looked at the dagger in my hand, and sighed: "You kid, you have the same temper as Yue Shan, but unfortunately, you use this dagger now, and you really can't exert any power." ”
Before the words fell, there was a sudden "boom" in front of the village, and a long line of smoke and dust swayed, like a smoke dragon, and I was suddenly startled, and I didn't know what had happened.
As soon as the sound sounded, I felt that the cold suddenly astringent, and there was a stirring in the building, but it quickly calmed down, and the cold color seemed to have decreased a lot.
The crazy old man looked happy and wondered, "What's the matter?" Could it be that the long ditch has been filled? Otherwise, how could the source of yin qi be cut off? If that's the case, it increases the odds of winning. ”
After a while, Wang Gui came back with all the villagers, it turned out that although the channel was not short, but both sides were full of cliffs, Wang Gui took a trick, and used explosives to blow up the cliffs along the canal, and the rocks rolled down, and the channel was filled in at once.
The crazy old man was overjoyed, and at this time Mrs. Wang Gui also found a lot of wormwood, piled it up around the building, lit the fire, and the billowing smoke rose, and everyone ran far away, not daring to approach.
As soon as the wormwood ignited, I closed my eyes and sensed it, only to see that the insects that had covered the building were rolled down one after another, and fell into the wormwood, no longer moving.
I told the mad old man about this scene, and the mad old man turned his head to look at Wang Gui Niang and said, "These are resentful insects, and when they have the intention to ugly and mean people, they are like flies that see rotten eggs, and they come from all directions to get nourishment from the foul words of the Lord and grow up. ”
Hearing him say this, I also turned my head to look at Mrs. Wang, so many resentful insects, how many mean words did this woman say, she should really be beaten.
Although the woman couldn't see it, she also heard our conversation just now, lowered her head and didn't dare to speak, she must have been very panicked, and then she was afraid that she wouldn't dare to be so mean.
After a while, the wormwood burned out, and I closed my eyes again to perceive that there was no trace of those insects on the walls of the building, but it was still cold inside the building, but I could not perceive the specific image.
I opened my eyes and looked at the crazy old man, and found that the crazy old man was looking at me with a strange expression, as if he was embarrassed by something, and when he saw my gaze, he hurriedly turned his face away, pretending not to pay attention to me at all.
At this time, Wang Gui came over and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Shu, do you think there is anything else that needs to be done?" ”
The crazy old man said: "There really is, you go and cut thirty-two peach stakes, the length should be the same, a little thicker." ”
Wang Gui went in response, and after a while he came back with a peach stake and put it next to us, the crazy old man waved his hand and said: "The rest of you can't help much, take everyone to retreat outside the courtyard, no matter what happens, I didn't call you in, don't come in." ”
Wang Gui hurriedly ran out, the villagers had seen the dog last time, and now when they saw it again, they dared to approach, so they went out of the yard and watched with their probes.
The crazy old man knew that it was impossible to persuade me to leave, so he didn't persuade me, but told me to be careful and walk into the building by myself.
I hurriedly hugged the peach stake and followed in, to be honest, although the crazy old man behaved a little crazy sometimes, but his heart was good, he was a trustworthy person named by his father before he died, I have to protect him no matter what, even if I am not able to do it, it is a good choice to advance and retreat together.
As soon as the two of them entered the building, the crazy old man opened the front and back doors, saying that he wanted the wind to blow through the hall to disperse the yin qi inside.
After a while, the mad old man began to get busy, first nailed eight peach stakes outside the back door of the room, then nailed eight more around the front eight, and so on, until thirty-two peach stakes were divided into four layers and nailed all of them outside the back door.
Then I used the red line to make a big circle on the peach stake, and then circled it left and right, and I was dazzled by it, and I couldn't see any pattern at all. Finally, every other step I pasted a yellow charm, pasted the yellow charm, took out a compass from my bosom, silently recited some nouns I did not understand, drilled left and right, and stopped at the door of a small room at the corner of the building.
This small room was supposed to be a storage room, full of farm tools, and there was not even a door. The crazy old man took out a white porcelain bottle from his bosom, poured out a dozen green pills, put one not far from the door of the room, and then took three steps back to put one pill, until he retreated to the peach stake outside the back door.
As soon as these things were placed, the crazy old man waved for me to hide, and then I heard a noise in the small room, as if something was drilling and touching the farm implements.
Then a head poked out of the small room, with round ears and a long mouth, two big teeth protruding, and a hint of greed in the dark eyes, it was really a mouse head, but this mouse's head was bigger than a rabbit's head.
The rat seemed to smell something, and the body slowly came out, I hid behind the desk, and almost screamed when I saw it, where is this mouse, it is clearly a pig cub of half size, but I am afraid that it is at least thirty or forty pounds.
Then there was another chaotic noise, and a rat about the size of the one in front of him also came out, and the two rats came together and kept sniffing the ground.
When I saw that there were two of them, I immediately panicked, the crazy old man said that it was very difficult for him to deal with one, and this time two came out, I was afraid that he would not be able to please him.
I glanced at the crazy old man, and the crazy old man's face also changed color, and he silently stepped back while chanting a spell, and probably didn't expect that there would be two such big yin rats.
What we never expected was that the two yin rats had just come out, and there was a "rustling" sound in the small room, and then two fat yin rats came out again, and their body size was one size bigger than the previous two, and they also ran down the ground to where the two yin rats in front of them were.
I saw that the crazy old man's face had turned pale, and he couldn't help but add his lips nervously, and the hand holding the seal began to tremble slightly, obviously he didn't expect that he would lure out four yin rats at once, and each one was bigger than the other.
