Chapter 220: Lost Soul
It can be seen that Liu Shangang at this time is much more nervous than me and Liang Houzai.
The door at the west end of the village was locked from the inside, and this door was facing the main road in the village, and Wong Tai Sin could see us at a glance as long as he came out of the mourning hall.
I didn't dare to delay the time, let alone break the door directly, that would make a big movement, so I could only take Liu Shangang and the two of them around to the back of the earthen house, which had a big crack in the back wall of the earthen house, just enough for one person to pass through.
Speaking of which, most of the houses in the village are like this, and at first glance, they are in danger of collapsing at any time.
Just now I saw Wong Tai Sin and the others entering the house, but when I looked into the house through the crack, I found that the earthen house was empty, and there was no one in it.
And just as I was looking into the crack, through the window on the opposite wall, I happened to see Wong Tai Sin pushing open the front door of the mourning hall and looking at the west entrance of the village vigilantly.
I didn't even know if he saw me even when I crouched down.
But a moment later, there was a sound of the door closing on the side of the mourning hall, and I stood up and looked towards the village road, but I didn't see Wong Tai Sin, it seemed that he had already entered the mourning hall.
Liu Shangang poked me with his elbow and opened his mouth to speak, but I immediately made a silent gesture to him.
I haven't forgotten that Huang Shu hasn't gone out since he entered this earthen house, who knows where this guy is hiding, Liu Shangang rashly opened his mouth to speak, and it is likely that he will hear it.
While hoping that Yan Xiaotian would be able to drag Wong Tai Sin back, I tiptoed through the crack in the wall and entered the earthen house, where Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang followed closely behind me.
After entering the house, we carefully investigated in the house, trying to find out where Zhu Gang and the others were, and Xian'er also ran out to help us find out.
The three of us searched for a long time and didn't find any clues, and finally Xian'er got into the ground, saying that there was a secret passage under the bed board of the earthen kang, and there was a lot of demonic energy in it.
Now there is no guarantee that we will not be detected when we enter the house, and the longer the delay, the more troublesome things may become.
I rushed to the front of the kang with both hands, and the seemingly heavy bed board was easily lifted by me, and I looked at the bottom of the bed board, only to find that the bed board was just a thin layer of old wood on the surface, but the inside was filled with dry straw.
And under the bedboard, there is indeed a very steep dark passage, to be exact, it should be a circular soil hole with a large slope, and there are many scattered paw prints on the edge of the hole, which seems to be dug out by yellow skin.
I asked Liang Houzai to help me support the bed board, and then jumped down, Liu Shangang followed behind me, and when Liang Houzai entered the hole for the last time, he gently re-covered the bed board.
Recall that we seem to have become the way we were when we entered the evil tomb again, with me taking the lead, Liu Shangang as the backbone, and Liang Houzai as the queen.
The road in the dirt cave is extremely uneven, the road is full of potholes, and there are some gravel irregularly, and the road slope is large, we can only tilt our body to maintain the center of gravity and prevent ourselves from rolling down, but even if we are careful enough, when we go downhill, it is inevitable that the gravel on the ground will be affected, and when the gravel rolls down the ramp and makes a burst of breaking sound, I have realized that the people in the deep soil cave will definitely be aware of our whereabouts.
But now that they're all in, I can't care so much, so I take a few big strides down the ramp and rush into the depths of the dirt cave.
After the ramp, there was a fairly flat tunnel, this tunnel was not very long, and at the end of the tunnel there was a dim yellow halo, through this halo, I could clearly see a large iron-brown cage, Zhu Gang and they were locked inside.
Just as I walked to the middle of the tunnel, the dusk at the end of the tunnel suddenly swayed violently, and I immediately took out the green steel sword, only to see Huang Shu holding a lit oil lamp, flashing out from the other end of the tunnel, and holding a kitchen knife in his hand.
When he saw us, he was stunned for a moment, then stopped and asked me, "Aren't you three gone?" ”
As he spoke, I had come to him.
I had always felt that Huang Shu and Huang Daxian didn't seem to be all the way, and I wanted to stop and ask him something, but at this time, Liu Shangang suddenly rushed over, holding a burning stick, and smashed it on Huang Shu's cheek.
Liu Shangang used a lot of force on this stick, I heard a muffled sound of "bang", Huang Shu didn't even have time to hum and fell down on his back, and even the thick burning stick was broken into two sections.
Huang Shu completely fainted this time, I hurriedly rushed over, caught the oil lamp with one hand, and hooked Huang Shu's neck with the other hand to prevent him from falling to his head.
And after Liu Shangang raided Huang Shu, Zhu Gang and the others just glanced at us with a blank expression, and then turned their faces to the side, as if they didn't care about Huang Shu's life or death, nor did they care about the sudden appearance of a few of us.
After I put Huang Shu on the ground steadily, I turned my head and asked Liu Shangang: "What are you doing!" ”
Liu Shangang threw aside the half-cut burning stick in his hand and said, "What do you call me to do?" What do you mean, isn't he Wong Tai Sin's person, if I don't solve him, if he yells, won't he attract Wong Tai Sin? ”
I sighed and didn't dig any further.
I have to say that what Liu Shangang said is also reasonable.
After that, the three of us walked to the cage. At that time, Zhu Gang was sitting at the very edge of the cage, and I came to him, shone his face with the light of an oil lamp, and called him: "Zhu Gang." ”
After a long time, Zhu just turned his head to look at me, his eyes were still indescribably dull, and his pupils were unfocused.
And after he looked at me like this, he turned his face to the side again, and looked blankly at the base of the iron cage.
I said to him again, "We are here to save you." ”
This time, Zhu Gang didn't react.
Xian'er approached Zhu Gang and looked at Zhu Gang's face carefully, and then she said to me with a smile: "It seems that Zhu Gang is confused by the yellow skin?" ”
When I saw Xian'er's relaxed smile, I knew that Xian'er must have a way to save her.
I said to her, "Aren't you the most proficient in these ecstasy?" Hurry up, break the ecstasy on Zhu Gang and them, don't waste time. ”
Xian'er's smile was even brighter than just now: "Okay, you beg me, and I'll help them solve the spell, plus twenty boxes of ice cream." ”
I was very helpless by her: "Okay, I made money this time, I'll ask you to eat and do it." ”
"That's it? You haven't begged me yet. Xian'er stared at me with big eyes and said.
I gave her a blank look: "Hurry up, Wong Tai Sin should come back in a while." ”
Xian'er also gave me a roll of the eyes, said "boring", and then took out the fox fire lantern from my chest and shone it on the top of Zhu Gang's head.
When she first lifted the fox fire lantern, she still had a very confident smile on her face, but when the fox fire turned around twice on the top of Zhu Gang's head, Xian'er's face became a little ugly.
I don't know much about the spells she practiced, but just by looking at her expression, I know that it seems that breaking Wong Tai Sin's ecstasy is not as simple as she imagined.
Xian'er probably didn't give up, and blew a breath towards the lantern, and saw that the fox fire was burning more vigorously than before, and she took the lantern to shine on Zhu Gang's heavenly spirit cover, but Zhu Gang still didn't react.
At this time, Xian'er turned her head a little embarrassed and said to me, "Is the ice cream invalid in advance?" ”
I asked her, "Why, Wong Tai Sin's ecstasy can't be broken?" ”
Xian'er shook her head: "No, Zhu Gang and they don't seem to have fallen into ecstasy, but lost their souls, when I shine on him with fox fire, I can only shine on his heavenly and human souls, but not on the earth soul." ”
People have three souls and seven spirits, the three souls of heaven, earth and man in the mouth of Xian'er, are called "fetal light", "cool spirit" and "ghost" in our upright lineage, as long as one of the three souls is missing, people will become sluggish, less than two souls can not wake up for a long time, and the three souls will be gone.
But it's the first time I've heard of someone losing their earth souls, and the ordinary soul is usually a human soul.
I asked Xian'er to take the fox fire lantern and shine on the other people in the cage, and they, like Zhu Gang, all lost their souls.
Xian'er frowned slightly, and said to me: "Ye Xiu's yellow skin doesn't have this kind of ability, that Huang Daxian can't have a heritage." ”
Liang Houzai also touched his chin at this time and said: "I think so, this Huang Daxian is not very capable of transforming into a form, which means that the Tao is not deep, but there is no obvious demonic energy from him." Its cultivation is far from reaching the level of a great demon, and if it is cultivated by chance, it should be impossible to comprehend the trick of reining demon qi. ”
When the two of them had finished speaking, they turned their eyes to me in unison, as if waiting for me to come up with an idea.
I looked at the people in the cage, then at the unconscious Huang Shu, and pondered for a long time before saying to Xian'er, "Xian'er, there is something I need your favor for." ”
Xian'er winked at me: "What are you doing?" ”
I said, "I remember, you should be able to create dreams?" ”
Seeing Xian'er nodded, I then asked her, "Can you create a dream for Huang Shu, so that when he wakes up, he mistakenly thinks that everything that happened in the dream is true?" ”
Xian'er stared at me for most of the day, and it took a while to understand what I meant: "You mean, make him think we never came in?" ”
I nodded: "That's what it means, can you do it?" ”
Xian'er smiled and said, "Of course you can, don't say it's letting him dream, even if you let him talk in his dreams and sleepwalk, there's no problem at all." ”
Xian'er's words reminded me, and I asked her again, "Is it okay to talk in your dreams?" ”
"That's right." Xian'er blinked suddenly, looked at me and said, "What, you want to get words out of his mouth?" ”
I nodded: "Yes, try to let him get through the details of Wong Tai Sin." ”
Xian'er: "Twenty boxes of ice cream, I want strawberry flavor." ”
I gave her a thumbs up: "Deal!" ”
Xian'er became in a very good mood, with a smile on her face, she jumped up and ran to Huang Shu, she first shook it in front of Huang Shu with a fox fire lantern, Huang Shu was still in a coma, and when he took such a photo, there was a murmuring "hum" sound in his nose, and then he snorted evenly.
