Ghosts have no shadows, and nothing in the illusion exists. Ji Zimo woke up and regained consciousness a few seconds later, and he had thought he was dead for the first few seconds.

Dead people don't dream.

Just now he had a dream, dreaming of the Stone Forest, dreaming of the Eagle's Beak Cliff, and dreaming of the Master.

If one second ago it was in an evil demagogic environment, then what is going on now? Ji Zimo felt that he was lying on a stone slab bed about the size of a morgue, his body was soft and unable to get up, and the cold slate was heated by his body temperature, and he had the illusion that he was on a hard bed.

To say that the cold comes from all sides outside the body.

Beside him, as far as the eye could see, there were many floating lanterns. If you look closely, there is a slender and slender phantus under the lantern. He couldn't see the phantoms, but he could feel the ghostly aura coming from them.

They are ghosts.

The lanterns were arranged in an orderly manner, and beside Ji Zimo's slate bed, there was also a "person" wearing a cloak. The man had a sharp knife in his hand, and he was chanting words in his mouth, as if he were chanting some terrible incantation, and no matter what way he looked at it, he could not see the face inside his hood.

Ji Zimo was about to struggle to sit up, and he wanted to ask something, when a stream of water like rain dripped on his face, startling him instinctively. When I looked closely, it was a "person" wearing a cloak who cut his wrist, and black blood dripped out and dripped on his face.

In an instant, Ji Zimo seemed to understand that some kind of evil ritual was being held here, and he became the only sacrifice that could be offered. Do they want to share his flesh and blood?

Just when Ji Zimo shook his head desperately and wanted to say something in his mouth, the man wearing the cloak lifted his hood, revealing a pale face. She, is it Su Qingmei?

At this moment, she has a pair of evil pure black evil eyes,

Is she Su Qingmei? In Ji Zimo's mind, she is very gentle, born with a pair of amorous eyes, and anyone who touches her eyes is as happy and warm as falling on cotton wool.

And now Su Qingmei, his face is expressionless, and his eyes are dark and black like a bottomless pit, which makes people worry at a glance. Ji Zimo knew that Su Qingmei was bewitched by the evil force and lost his mind.

Ji Zimo called out Su Qingmei's name from the bottom of his heart, hoping that she would come to her senses. At the same time, he also felt sorry for her severed wrist, he wanted to break free from Shu Bo, who was bewitching power, and wanted to shout desperately, but everything was in vain.

Seeing an inexplicable huge black gas rolling from the roof, a terrible ghost cry was mixed with the black gas, rushing towards Ji Zimo. His heart was completely cold, and he thought that he was going to die.

Just as the last moment, a flash of light came from the door, driving away the haze, and a very small amount of black gas still swished into Ji Zimo's nostrils and disappeared all at once.

All this happened too fast, I believe that except for Ji Zimo, who is Su Qingmei on the side of the slate bed, she saw it, but she is now in a state of confusion and unconsciousness, and it is useless to see it, and she can't help him.

The shining light at the door became brighter and brighter, and the Qiankun circle, which was like a rotation mode, swished to form a protective circle of light above Ji Zimo's head.

With a bang, the lanterns and ghosts that were suspended in mid-air vanished with a bang.

Irradiated by the light, Su Qingmei, who was standing next to the stone bed, spat out a mouthful of blood, stopped talking, and fell to the ground with a shaking body.

Ji Zimo shouted: "Clear eyebrows? The voice that came out was pale and weak, small and weak.

A pair of warm and thick hands picked up Ji Zimo and asked kindly, "Zimo, are you okay?" ”

The person who came was Kang Zhentian. He put the tortoiseshell bracelet on Ji Zimo, and told him that Cai Xiaolan didn't have to worry about it, he had a way to protect her.

Kang Zhentian was anxious to help Ji Zimo up, and picked up Su Qingmei by the waist and walked out of the house.

When he got outside, Ji Zimo knew that he was in the red house.

The air outside was so good, and though it was weak, he breathed greedily, as if he had just returned from a few centuries of exhaustion.

The situation seems to be very bad.

Ji Zimo heard from his master that he went to the mass grave with Shi Feng and did not come back.

When they went to the mass grave to find someone, they only saw Shi Feng and didn't see Ji Zimo.

Shi Feng seemed to be frozen, almost like a dead man! In short, when I brought it home, my face was pale, with frost and snow covering my face, my body was stiff, and I couldn't speak.

If it weren't for the fact that his pulse was still beating, he might have thought he was dead.

Shi Feng's mother cried and cried, boiling hot soup, ignoring the call of dragging a string of tits and sows in the circle, and brought the hot soup tremblingly, watching Kang Zhentian pour a bowl of hot soup into her son's mouth, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

After a bowl of hot soup, Shi Feng resumed his breathing, and streams of hot air came out of his body.

Kang Zhentian drew a talisman with a few strokes and pasted it on Shi Feng's back, unraveling the evil Gu that Shu Bo was talking about.

Shi Feng opened his eyes and said in the first sentence: "What about Brother Ji?" When he learned that neither his father nor Kang Zhentian saw Ji Zimo, he said, "Qingju wants to marry Brother Shi Lin." ”

"Who is Qingju?" Kang Zhentian asked Uncle Shi Lin.

"It's the adopted daughter of Zhong Madman."

"Oh." Kang Zhentian agreed, and asked Shi Feng urgently, "Did you see her?" ”

Shi Feng nodded and said, "I saw it, she was sitting in the sedan chair, and at that time I was separated from Brother Ji." ”

Kang Zhentian asked, "Where are you going when you come out of the mass grave?" ”

"The Red House."

"The Red House?" Shi Feng's father's face changed drastically, and he repeated his words in shock.

Kang Zhentian saw that his expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Is there a problem with the red house?" ”

Under Kang Zhentian's questioning, Uncle Shi Lin had to tell the truth of the matter.

In fact, Shi Feng and his family lied to Ji Zimo and Kang Zhentian. There was no geological disaster a long time ago, but there was a real plague that had never been seen before.

The plague killed many people. It was cut off from the outside world, and there were people sent by local departments to guard it outside, and it was a mess inside.

For a while, the people who were blocked inside became extremely crazy, and their spirits were in a state of tension and almost collapse.

No one knows where the plague came about.

Some people say that it is eating bad things, diarrhea, and then air infection.

The infected person also had diarrhea and could not take any medicine.

The plague makes people afraid, frightened, and suspicious, and even a cold and fever can make people mistakenly think that they are infected with the plague. In this way, there are many patients who are not plagues, and they are isolated as plagues and locked up in red houses.

The more this happened, the number of dead people increased, and the dead bodies were left in scattered graves. Wild dogs, active in the corpse pile, the entire town of Maple Grove is shrouded in a lifeless atmosphere.

The crops in the fields were abandoned there, and no one cared for them. Every home is a sick home, every home is where someone is crying, and every home has a sick person who is sent to the Red House.

Some families became extinct from this moment on.

In some cases, there is still a child left.

Some of the houses were empty, and the cattle were scurrying around the houses, wailing and looking for food.

At that time, in those days, it was really bitter. In order to prevent the plague from infecting them, they were suspicious of each other, killed each other, and locked up those who did not die and those who died in the red house.

The red house stinks. Women, men, children, old people, eating, drinking, and sleeping in the red house.

An old man knelt on the ground, with a pious demeanor, and his hands respectfully prostrate on the ground with his old body, and his mouth wailed: "God is going to destroy people." ”

There are living people in the red house.

They were so frightened that they did not dare to move their eyes, as if they were afraid that the germs of the plague would come and attack them quietly after they had fallen asleep.

The number of people in the red house is decreasing, and the mounds of mass graves are increasing. The wild dogs were fed and crouched on the mound, blinking a pair of spirited eyes, expecting a fresh corpse to appear.

In the end, someone came up with an idea, whether it was angry or not, and buried them all to prevent future troubles.

Suddenly, Maple Grove Town, a small place that was not marked on the globe, became a world of crying.

Woman crying for child.

The old man cried bitterly.

The man had to clench his teeth, and Tie Qing had a face, and his eyes were very scary staring at one place in a daze.

The wild dogs rejoiced, learned to howl wolves, and howled in the middle of the night. It was a dark and dreary night, without a hint of light, and a few men covering their mouths and noses, holding thick wooden sticks in their hands, drove the sick and staggered to a freshly dug pit with their faces staggering.

Naturally, those who cannot walk are carried, and the roots of the plague must be cut off before dawn.

On the road leading to the Red House, there was a constant stream of people coming and going. They lit lanterns and shouted at people who were staggering to death.

The big pit is in the mass grave.

There is only one road leading to the mass grave in the red house, and the road is easy to walk and will not delay things.

Hence the name Eater of Souls.

The people who were driven away had fire in their eyes and resentment at the leader who drove them.

Two-thirds of Fenglin Town is surnamed Shi, and most of the people who were driven out were foreign surnames, and a few had the surname Shi.

Some people secretly speculated that this was the Shi family excluding dissidents and using the plague to make a big fuss. Thinking that the Shi family will dominate Fenglin Town, guessing that it will shake people's hearts, and it will be useless for some people to resist.

Before dawn, the Red House was cleared, and the large pit of the mass grave was filled in before dawn. As everyone knows, after the burial, it suddenly rained heavily.

The pit was washed by the heavy rain, the soil loosened and collapsed, and the people who breathed a breath really died, and the people who were a little stronger struggled to finally get up from the pit.

He crawled out of the crater and stumbled through the dwindling rain. In a panic, he walked to the door of Grandpa Shi Lin's house.

Grandpa Shi Lin was the chief person who led the purge plan.

He heard movement at the door, hurriedly got up to look, opened the door and saw a man walking crookedly like a ghost, so he shouted, "Who? ”

That person had crawled out of the pile of dead people by stealing life, but when he asked this, his mother screamed in fright and desperately wanted to run.

Grandpa Shi Lin was not merciful in the face of people infected with the plague, and he swung his hoe and smashed it on the body of the person who wanted to run but fell to the ground.

The blood stained the ground red, and the rain flowed down to the low-lying areas, where the rainwater turned pale red and invaded the formation.

Grandpa Shi Lin sweated profusely in the cold rain, and retreated into the house in a wheezing, ready to bring a ragged mat and drag it to the mass grave.
