Chapter 4: Little Paper Man

readx;

I looked at Ah Jiu again, and Ah Jiu also shook his head, indicating that he didn't smell the fragrance of flowers in the air. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Did you smell it wrong, why didn't I feel it?" Ah Jiu has undergone special training, and the sensitivity of his facial features is many times more powerful than that of ordinary people. That's why I asked.

I sniffed it again to make sure I didn't smell it wrong.

The aroma of orchids is clear, if it is really orchid, it is easy to smell it, but even Ah Jiu can't smell it.

There is only one possibility.

This orchid is not for people, but for ghosts

The little paper figure I was carrying became more and more uneasy. My body shook even more.

"Little paper man, you follow me, don't be afraid, don't call out, there may be a situation when you stay."

The little paper man snorted.

"Ah Jiu. I didn't smell it wrong. I believe that apart from me, these spirits floating in the air, lonely ghosts who can't help themselves. I smell it too. Let's be careful. I said.

Ah Jiu nodded with a solemn expression, took a quick step, and led the way in front of us.

I said to Zhang Xuanwei again: "Your guess is right. A strange fragrance emanated from the mountain, attracting the lonely spirits and wild ghosts scattered around. ā€

But judging from the reaction of the lonely soul and wild ghost. Some of them came voluntarily, so they were excited; And some are attracted by the aroma and have to lean over, so their voices are full of fear.

This kind of aroma can attract lonely souls and wild ghosts, and the strength is so strong that it is definitely not a naturally produced aroma in nature, and it is very likely to be artificially made.

Their purpose may be simple: to collect spirits scattered in the mountains and villages.

When Miss Xie chased out, she may have noticed something unusual, changed the tracking direction halfway, and chased after the spirit.

I figured out why.

I was also very curious, what kind of person would it be, and what kind of use it would be, in the beautiful place of Wuyuan, to collect spirits.

There was more and more light in the forest, and they all gathered under a mountain peak, where there was some faint light.

Ah Jiu paced, advancing cautiously, trying not to make a sound.

"There's someone ahead," Ah Jiu waved his hand. The three of us quickly leaned close together, not pushing any further.

Hide under a dense field of vine plants and carefully observe the landscape in front of you.

In the distance, there were three people, gathered around a rock. There was a yellow gourd on the stone, and the mouth of the gourd was already open.

On the side of the gourd, there is a very delicate utensil, which should be a small tripod forged in bronze, the small tripod is not very large, and it can probably hold a bowl of rice. This small tripod is small and very easy to carry.

Under Xiaoding, an oil lamp is lit.

There was no wind in the mountains, and the oil lamps were burning slowly.

Yellow gourd, black small ding, oil lamp, what does it mean when these three things are combined?

I squinted and my eyes turned red, which was so hard to see that I was really startled.

The spirits, lonely spirits and ghosts that floated in endlessly were all sucked into the yellow gourd with the mouth of the gourd open.

And in the black small ding, there is an extremely strong aroma.

Zhang Xuanwei asked in a low voice: "Xiao Ning, this gourd is a little weird, what are they going to do?"

I said, "There may be a special spice burning in the black ding. Use this aroma to attract lonely spirits, wild ghosts, and spirits in the vicinity. And the yellow gourd next to Xiaoding is used to hold these spirits. ā€

The strange fragrance attracts the little ghost. The yellow gourd can fit the imps in. This gourd is like a kind of treasure, and once the little ghosts and spirits get into it, they don't seem to be able to escape.

Those who are completely unconscious, attracted by the strange fragrance, think that they have encountered something magical, and the cries are very excited.

As for those who are slightly smarter and more enlightened, or those lonely souls and wild ghosts who have not lost much of their three souls and seven spirits, they feel the danger, but they can't control their bodies, so they let out panicked screams.

"What kind of fragrance is this, why can't I smell it," Zhang Xuanwei asked puzzled, "Why did they capture these poor souls who have no ability to harm?"

I shook my head and said, "I don't know, let's see." I can't see for a moment what their purpose is, whether they are bad and come here with evil purposes"

I hid in the dark and saw the yellow gourd from a distance, but I don't know what the three of them look like.

Moreover, things like lonely souls and wild ghosts can sometimes frighten children with weak yang energy, causing children to have fever or nightmares.

If it is really a good deed for the local residents, it is also a merit to contain these souls and find a way to exceed.

There's no need for me to rush out and wreak havoc.

The three people on the stone did not speak, and they were very particular about the position they were standing.

I looked at it for a while, but I didn't see anything more, but this strange fragrance made my heart feel very comfortable, without the slightest resentment, and there was a thought in my heart, so I ran over to take a good look at the place.

I hurriedly shook my head, collected my mind, and secretly warned myself not to be overwhelmed by this strange fragrance.

"Xiao Ning, let's chase here, I didn't see Senior Xie, whether she chased here. Why is she nowhere to be seen? Zhang Xuanwei waited for a while before asking.

The corpse qi on Miss Xie's body is completely different from that of ordinary zombies, in this forest, I don't feel Miss Xie's breath at all, and I also have some doubts, could it be that Miss Xie didn't come here.

"It's really strange, why is there no trace of Miss Xie. Didn't you come here?"

Ah Jiu said: "You wait for me." I touched the other side and looked at it. ā€

Ah Jiu moved from under the large leaves of the rattan and slid forward along the dense plants.

Like a poisonous snake, Ah Jiu quietly bypassed the three people on the side of the stone.

After about ten minutes, Ah Jiu came back and said, "There are two plants over there, and many leaves have fallen to the ground, so it is very likely that there was a fight." Miss Xie may have gone to the front. ā€

"Strange, can't this yellow gourd absorb ghosts and spirits to attract the attention of Senior Xie Strange, strange," I said with a sigh.

At that moment, the little paper figure slipped out of my hand and ran quickly, directly towards the three of them.

"Oh no, the little paper man was also attracted by the strange fragrance," I shouted.

Jumped out from under the rattan and chased after it quickly. Zhang Xuanwei and Ah Jiu also followed.

There was shouting. The three of them heard the movement and looked towards it, with two more yellow runes on their hands, and their eyes were also a little surprised.

The little paper man ran very fast, suddenly jumped up from the grass, and directly knocked down the little black ding, and even the oil lamp fell to the ground and went out.

Xiao Heiding fell on the stone, and from it crawled out a caterpillar-sized red insect, and vaguely a pair of antennae could be seen.

It's a stolen incense worm.

In the spring and summer in the Wuyuan area, a kind of magical insect breeds out, often infested in the rape flowers, once it has stayed in the flowers, the flowers will lose their fragrance.

The different fragrance emitted from the small black tripod is emitted by burning the incense stealing insects. This magical fragrance is emitted by the small black ding, forming a fatal attraction to the nearby ghosts.

The little paper figure landed on the stone and made a "huh" cry, which was particularly full of the behavior of the three people.

"Where did the little paper man come from," one of them shouted. After the oil lamp was extinguished, the man lit the torch as fast as he could.

"This little paper figure is very familiar, and it seems that some manipulation techniques have some connection with us," said one of them.

When the little paper figure saw the torch, he was frightened, and he couldn't help but retreat and fall under the stone.

The other two struck left and right, capturing the little paper figure.

The little paper figure leaned against the grass, quickly retreated, fell into the grass, and jumped over me.

"Who are you, why do you want to destroy our behavior of collecting ghosts, how did this little paper man follow you" The two saw us appear, and did not chase after us to snatch it.

"Boom," the little paper figure cried out angrily, a voice filled with hatred and dissatisfaction.

"I'm here to care about you, what are you doing here, pretending to be a ghost here, making a gourd" I felt the dissatisfaction of the little paper man, the incense worms are spiritual worms, they use the fire to barbecue and steal the incense worms, these three people are definitely not good things.

Ah Jiu moved two steps and stood beside me, with two more daggers in his hands.
