Chapter 10: Illusion

They probably called the village and nearby villages in advance to ask for a car while they were still collecting things on the mountain, and in a short time, a team of hundreds of people scattered and left.

I looked at Master Lu, who continued to bury his head in his own things and didn't say a word.

I knew he was in a bad mood, but I had to ask, "What if it did follow these people?" ”

"That's no way, so many people want to leave, how can the two of us stop it?" Master Lu shook his head and said. "It's past five o'clock now, and these workers can't go far tonight, most of them can only spend the night in the countryside, and we still have a chance. But if we can't find it out tonight, we're in trouble. ”

"Let's get some sleep." He said to me. "That thing should have been injured by your amulet, and it won't move for a while. You hurry up and take a break, you'll have to rely on your strength tonight. ”

I went back to my bedroom and went to sleep, and as I went to bed I held the amulet tightly in my hand and regretted it a little.

If I hadn't kept that runic book at home, maybe it wouldn't be what it is now.

I didn't sleep well for days, I almost closed my eyes and fell asleep, and by the time I woke up, it was completely dark.

I got up in a panic and looked at my watch, and it was only eight o'clock.

You can't get dark so early in July!

Needless to say, it must have something to do with that evil thing.

Master Lu said that my amulet should have hit it hard, but how did it regain its strength so quickly?

The street lights outside were on, but the people in the warehouse were gone, and Master Lu and Lu Xiaoling were standing in the parking lot talking to some villagers from Hewei Village.

Master Lu nodded at me: "Are you awake?" The people who cook in the cafeteria are also gone, and I have dry food and mineral water in my car, right in the back seat. If you want to eat, get it yourself. ”

I looked around, the superintendent's room was dark, the lights were locked, the director's car was gone, and it seemed that they were gone.

Zhang Minxiang and Deng Cheng just said goodbye without saying goodbye, which made me a little uncomfortable.

The dry food brought by Master Lu was ham bread, which tasted pretty good, and I walked over to them while eating, wanting to hear what they were saying.

"These bitches raised them and ran away when they got into trouble and wiped their butts!" It was Zhang Dali, the village party secretary of Hewei Village, who spoke, and standing next to him was the old village chief Xu Youde, as well as more than a dozen villagers.

Master Lu said, "If you think about it, it may be dangerous. ”

The old village chief said with a sad face. "What's the solution? They can go, our ancestors were born here for generations, how to go? If Master Lu doesn't succeed, that thing will harm the women and children in the family, what should we do? ”

There were a few big roosters and two black dogs at their feet, it seemed that when Lu Xiaoling went to the village to buy these things, the people in the village knew what happened and followed.

Master Lu pinched his fingers and said after calculating. "It doesn't take many people, and those who belong to dragons, pigs, and chickens can stay. Everyone else went back to the village, closed the doors and windows, and sprinkled glutinous rice on the windows and doors, and if there were roosters in the house, they could kill them and sprinkle the blood of the chickens at the doors and windows. Remember! Don't go out no matter what you hear! ”

I quietly asked Lu Xiaoling, "Why do you still need help from the villagers?" ”

Lu Xiaoling gave me a blank look: "When you go up and down the mountain, you always need someone to help you move things, right?" You are so useless, my uncle is injured again, do you want me to carry it? ”

The people in the village were in chaos for a while, and in the end there were only three people left, Zhang Dali, the village party secretary, a widower in his fifties named Niu Wu, who often came to the project department to sell vegetables, and a man in his thirties named Zhang Fugui, who was Zhang Dali's cousin.

Except for Zhang Dali, the other two people were a little panicked on their faces.

It's no wonder that people have a herd mentality, and when there were a dozen people just now, they may not feel afraid, but when everyone is gone, there are only a few left, and the heart begins to feel empty.

Master Lu said to them with a pleasant face: "Don't worry, as long as you don't run around, do what I say, I guarantee that you will be fine." ”

This makes me a little angry, if it is really so powerful, how can it be so embarrassed in the afternoon?

But now, we have no choice but to listen to him.

The altar has already been arranged, this altar used to open my eyes is completely different from the simple one in the afternoon, Lu Xiaoling took down a large piece of cloth with figures and talismans drawn on the car, and spread them on the ground, not only replaced the altar with a larger incense burner, but also used a lottery holder to put a lot of flags.

Copper bells, gossip mirrors, peach wood swords, order flags, rune paper, Buddha dust, wooden runes and peach runes are lined up, and with the magic circle on the ground, it looks much more powerful than in the morning. If you set up this formation in the morning, maybe it won't be so embarrassing, right?

I couldn't help but whisper this idea to Lu Xiaoling, and she looked at me with disdain: "Each array has the usage of each array, just go to overtake those three revenants in the morning, who knew that thing would be so powerful in broad daylight?" You think it's easy to carry these things up the mountain? ”

Don't you know that carelessness can kill people? Again, I was scolding.

It's not even nine o'clock, but Master Lu has already started to open the altar, I can't understand what he's doing, and I can't understand what he's talking about, but he looks very powerful.

Lu Xiaoling asked us to sit cross-legged on those cloths, Master Lu lit a talisman and circled around us a few times, and then shook the copper bell and walked around us while reading, at first I was still very interested, but I don't know what happened, my eyelids gradually became heavy.

I knew I should never sleep at this time, but I couldn't resist the sleepiness, and tears began to flow out.

I couldn't help but yawn, and when I opened my eyes, I found that the people around me were gone!

My movements froze suddenly.

The temperature around me dropped rapidly, and I could see the air coming out of my eyes condense into white smoke.

I was wearing only a T-shirt and shivered with cold.

I hurriedly reached out and grabbed the amulet on my chest: "Here you come!" I'm not afraid of you! I exclaimed.

But there was nothing to be seen around, the street lamps shone coldly on the empty altar, and somewhere in the distance, the damn bird began to chirp again.

I shouted loudly, "Master Lu? Lu Xiaoling! ”

No one responded.

What a damn one! The magic circle that looked so gorgeous was broken in an instant!

I subconsciously wanted to stand up, but a voice told me not to move.

It's a trick, I told myself.

I had no choice but to keep shouting, "You come out!" ”

There was still dead silence, only the bird was still wailing bitterly.

I don't know how long it took, but my legs that were cross-legged on the ground had started to go numb, but nothing happened.

Except for the absence of any people, everything was undecently quiet.

The phone rang suddenly!

After getting used to the silence, the monotonous sound of the bell was like the whistle of an air horn, and my heart almost jumped out of my chest.

I frantically took it out of my pants pocket.

"Sun Yang! Sun Yang! The person on the other side of the phone was Zhang Minxiang, who sounded like he had seen a ghost, with a crying voice in his voice.

"What?" I knew it was most likely just a hallucination, but I couldn't ignore him.

He exclaimed excitedly, "Is it really you? Thank God! ”

I cautiously asked, "Where are you?" ”

"The workers in the canteen ran away, and the director took us to the countryside for dinner, but on the way back, the car suddenly broke down, it couldn't start, and the lights wouldn't turn on! There was only a flashlight in the car and nothing could be seen! He said anxiously. We've called a lot of people but no one answered, but luckily your calls still get through! Come and save us! ”

I don't know if it's the real Zhang Minxiang or if it's a hallucination created by that evil thing, but it might pull them into the same space as me, isn't it?

"I can't help it......" I shook my head blankly.

"Do you have any cars there?" Zhang Minxiang said. "We have wires in our cars, don't you know how to drive? As long as we can get a car and let's get it started. ”

Car?

My eyes were on the side, the off-road vehicle driven by Master Lu and Lu Xiaoling was parked there, and I knew that she didn't pull out the key.

Going?

I touched the amulet on my chest.

It shouldn't be able to hurt me?
