Chapter 7: Tracking All the Way Strange Signs
"Boom!"
The rune paper at the mouth of the porcelain altar ignited instantly, and flew to the paper crane flying and hovering above everyone's heads in the direction guided by the grandfather, and the paper crane also burned; However, the flaming paper crane did not continue to hover over everyone's heads at this time, but flew towards the exit of the pile gate as if it had a target......
"Bring the lantern and come with me!"
Grandpa shouted at the remaining young adults, and then followed the paper crane in front of him and walked out......
On the other hand, Deshun at this time, his face was black, his head was smoky, and he was holding the porcelain altar in his arms, standing in front of the stone table stupidly, obviously not figuring out what was going on; Seeing that the grandfather led a group of young men out of the door, there was a pig howl, holding the jar and hurriedly chasing after him, leaving the village chief and the Wang family brothers laughing behind him, and also leaving the smell of burning hair in the courtyard drifting away with the wind......
Grandpa took Deshun and a few young adults to follow the paper crane and walked all the way to the woods behind the mountain; At this time, it was already dark, and the grandfather motioned to everyone to light the lantern they were holding to illuminate it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info took out a bell from the cloth bag he was carrying, and removed a ball of cotton from the bell to stop the sound.
The bell is called the Demon Bell, which can also be used to drive away ghosts and summon spirits; And grandpa must be one of the three souls who want to use the demon bell to lure the two dogs out of the way. The method of conjuring spirits is to use one of the three souls to guide the way; Chen Ergou's three souls, one of which has been possessed by Wang Wu, which made Wang Wu confused, and made the six relatives not admit to kill him; The second soul is possessed by the queen mother, just so that the grandfather uses the connection between the soul and the soul to attract the third soul; According to the queen mother's story, the place where the mother and son of the Wang family buried the intestines and other body parts of the second dog happened to be in this forest, which also confirmed that the path led by the paper crane was correct; Only by collecting the three souls of the two dogs can the two dogs appear, and then return to the underworld and be reincarnated!
"Sky Eye, open!"
Grandpa bit his fingertip, and suddenly a drop of essence blood appeared; Grandpa pressed his fingertips on his forehead without hesitation, and a golden light appeared, and a phantom of erect eyes slowly appeared on Grandpa's forehead; It's just that these things are invisible to ordinary people, so the few young adults behind Grandpa didn't find anything unusual.
"Jingle bell...... Jingle bell ......"
Shaking the demon bell, it suddenly made the young adults who followed behind the grandfather feel refreshed, and followed closely behind the grandfather, I don't know if it was fear or other reasons.
The flaming paper crane slowly stopped in an area of the woods and swirled, and Grandpa also sped up the rhythm of the shaking of the demon bell; It didn't take long for a phantom shadow to appear in Grandpa's sight, it seemed to be a woman, with a cloak of hair, empty eyes, and arms bent forward, slowly floating around the group but not approaching, it was obvious that this was not Chen Ergou's soul.
"Jingle Bell ......"
I don't know how long it took, but there were more than ten ghosts around Grandpa and his party, including men and women, old and young, but they still didn't find the soul of Ergou. Grandpa's expression was solemn, his eyes were gloomy, and in his calculations, after such a long time, it stands to reason that there should be at least a hundred ghosts gathered in the woods here; However, it was only now that more than a dozen bodies appeared unhurriedly, and it was clear that things were somewhat unexpected to him.
"Duck, put the jar down!" Grandpa still holds the bell in one hand, but the expression on his face has become silent; A few people behind him were a little impatient, followed his grandfather to the woods, didn't see any excitement, wandered around for a long time, and naturally lost patience; It's just that if they knew that there were more than a dozen ghosts wandering around them not far away, would they still have this thought......
"A few of you stand far away, I'm not responsible for being rushed by the madness!"
The duck placed the jar on the ground but suddenly shouted loudly at the empty place on the side, this shout frightened several young adults behind him, and several people hurriedly took a few steps back but saw that Deshun was not shouting himself; Immediately, his face was slightly red and embarrassed. However, the grandfather's eyes flashed, and he was a little curious about Deshun; Because other people can't see him, he can see it, the direction of Deshun's shouting is exactly where the more than ten ghosts gather, the little boy in front of the ghost woman was so frightened by Deshun's shout that he dodged behind the woman with a cloak next to him, his empty eyes couldn't see the look, but his immature little face could see that it was full of fear.
After putting the jar away, Deshun shook off the horizontal meat on his face and retreated to his grandfather's side with a light snort, disdainful of the more than ten ghosts not far away!
Grandpa thought for a while, but he didn't think too much about why Deshun could see ghosts and ghosts; Instead, he gathered his mind and continued to deal with the things in front of him.
Grandpa handed the demon bell to Deshun beside him and told him not to stop shaking; Then he took out the contents of the porcelain altar with his own self-possession.
"Human Skull ......"
A group of people behind him were frightened when they saw Grandpa take out the skull in the jar; There is still a little boldness, but one by one they looked at Deshun who was shaking the bell, with admiration and envy in his eyes, and ridicule and contempt; They clearly remembered that not long ago, Deshun was still sleeping on the porcelain altar in his arms.
Grandpa used the seven-star sword to gently pick out a trace of flesh on the skull, and then continued to place the skull in the altar.
"I am the eye of heaven, chasing with the sky. The eyes are like thunder and lightning, and the light shines on the eight poles. See through the inside and outside, nothing is lurking. Haste as a law. Five-star town color, light Xuanming. Thousands of gods and saints, protect my true spirit. The giant beast subdues the five soldiers. Five days of the devil, dead and extinct. Wherever it is, all gods are welcome. Haste as the law......"
After reciting a conjuring spell, the grandfather wielded the seven-star sword, the tip of which pointed directly at the paper crane hovering overhead; With a "rub", a trace of flesh and blood taken from the skull shot straight away, hidden in the paper crane; Immediately, the flames burning on the paper crane instantly erupted and surged; And the paper crane itself also quickly shifted its direction, facing due north.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, the paper crane in the sky exploded without warning, and with a bang, it turned into ashes and scattered to the ground.
"Not good!"
At the same time as the paper crane exploded, Grandpa had already discovered the abnormality; His face was slightly pale, and it was obvious that things were not as simple as he thought, and Grandpa hurriedly turned up the cloth bag on his body; Finally, before the confetti hit the ground, he took out an object from the cloth bag, but it was a compass; I saw that the needle in the compass was shaking rapidly, but I could vaguely see the general direction it was pointing to, which was due north.
"Come with me!"
At this time, Grandpa's face told the people behind him that there had been a major change in their attitudes, and the few people behind him didn't dare to say much, so they hurriedly picked up the horse lantern and followed behind Grandpa and galloped due north. As for the more than a dozen ghosts, they had already fled from here in fear the moment the paper crane exploded.
The compass shook faster and faster, and it was clear that the grandfather had chosen the right path; But the expression on Grandpa's face did not relax, but became more and more solemn. The faster the compass shakes, the greater the unknown variables ahead.
