The old lady's words were purely to arouse my curiosity. I had the heart to ignore it, but in the end, I was defeated.

I couldn't help but look at her: "What do you mean?" Am I going to die? ”

The old lady smiled and said, "Everyone's life." All in their own hands. Although I am a woman, I have never done anything to fate, so whether you will die or not depends entirely on whether you can control your own life. ”

I naturally know what this "graspable" means, it's nothing more than obediently cooperating with her. Every word of this old lady is mysterious, and if I don't pay attention to it, I will be led by her nose. It's dangerous to deal with this kind of person, and I have the heart to hide far away, but I can't go.

The old lady said to me very invisibly, "Now that the fish have caught some firewood." Bait is never necessary to keep it outside the door anymore. Excuse me, both of you, and help me carry the coffin back to the wood. ”

Xue Qian looked at my cloud eyes, and the cloud face reluctantly walked away.

After Xue Qian and I carried the coffin to the courtyard, we closed the courtyard door, and then slowly returned to the house with our heads down.

The old lady picked up her pipe again and went on to smoke. And Xue Qian and I sat on the sofa honestly.

This sentiment is so similar to just worshipping. It's a pity that in a few minutes. Xue Qian and I lost our armor and retreated one after another, and the initiative was firmly grasped by the other party.

The old lady looked at the woman. The woman understood and said to us, "My mother-in-law's surname is Chai, you can call her Mrs. Chai." My husband's surname is Chai, and his name is Chaiji. You might use that name a bit. ”

Xue Qian muttered: "Why are you both surnamed Chai?" ”

Mrs. Chai swallowed the clouds and said, "Because my son has my surname." ”

I scratched my hair and said with some melancholy: "How to save people?" Do you have any plans? Where are those medicines? ”

The woman said, "I have checked my husband's account book after the eight incidents. It is common to say that there is no record of the purchase of new drugs. So, I don't know the firewood calendar of these medicines. I'm afraid it's not easy to start here. ”

Then she looked at me with some suspicion: "Since you live in an empty house, you should have some skills." Isn't this kind of messy thing you're best at? Still need to plan to us for a long time? ”

I waved my hand: "You better not count on me, I'm a mallet." ”

Old lady Chai smiled slightly: "The young man is still young. It's normal to not understand something. ”

Then she put her pipe down, squinted slightly, looked at the smoke that gradually dissipated, and said: "Many years ago, when I was still wandering around the rivers and lakes, I once went to a very remote place in Yunge, and the customs there were very different from ours, and I had seen similar things in Yunzhi there. The victim never woke up from a long sleep, and his breathing dropped to several hours. The people there call this kind of person a fake corpse. ”

I glared and said, "And then?" How was it saved? ”

Mrs. Chai said, "The people in that place believe it. Man has thirty-six souls. It's like a hemp rope cloud, and every cloud soul is a cloud root and fine hemp. These fine linen are twisted into the clouds, and they become the soul of a person. Ren Yundan had fake corpse disease, but in fact, the hemp rope was scattered, and the souls were scattered and scattered. That's why the worshippers can't wake up. ”

I nodded silently and said, "And then?" How the hell do they save people? ”

The old lady said: "After all, a fake corpse is not a real corpse, and before a person is completely dead, there is always a cloud soul left in the body." We're going to try to get this soul out of it. Then the person with a special cloud position, Yunlu called the soul, and retrieved the rest of his soul to firewood. ”

I was curious: "Special person, what do you mean?" ”

Mrs. Chai pointed at me: "It's you." The owner of the empty house. ”

Although I had long expected that she would choose me, I still got to the bottom of it: "Please make it clear, why is Yunding me?" ”

Mrs. Chai said, "Because you live in an empty house. It's no accident, young man, that you're the master of some empty house. Anyone who can stay in Liyin and not die is very special. They are naturally able to communicate with ghosts and spirits. So I ask you to help my son call the soul. You are the only one who helps him call his soul, and you won't collide with him. ”

I glared and said, "Don't bluff me, old lady. I know very well that the relatives of the deceased can never be called ghosts, and they will not collide. This matter, if you don't want me to go, you can do it. ”

Mrs. Chai didn't know if she was choked by the smoke or by my words. She covered her mouth and coughed twice, and the heroic appearance of the cloud stock she had just worshipped disappeared instantly, replaced by an old dragon bell.

She leaned back on the sofa, and her voice fell from a low one: "I'm so old, Benchai won't have a few days to live, and if I deal with gods and ghosts, I'm afraid Ma will die." So, I have no choice but to ask you. ”

When I saw her like this, Yun Shi was a little speechless.

Xue Qian whispered beside me, "Lu Laodao." ”

My heart rejoiced: "Where? Where is Mr. Lui? ”

Xue Qian pointed at Mrs. Chai: "I mean, she is very similar to Lu Laodao, she dug the pit and waited for you to jump in." If you think about it, after actually doing something about her son, she will know how to save people. The common thing is that she didn't save it, and put the coffin at the door, just to recruit the two of us to work for her. ”

I sighed and said, "No way, this old guy knows about the empty house, I have to inquire about Bachai." ”

Mrs. Chai saw me and Xue Qianyun muttering vigorously, but she never interfered, and Yun looked at us with a smile.

I stood up, turned the clouds in the room, and said, "Okay, I can promise you." ”

Old Mrs. Chai instantly refreshed her spirit and said, "That's right." You just called my son's name, and walked around the road, and in half an hour at most, we will call it a day and go back to firewood. Rest assured, this cloud road is very safe. ”

Then she commanded the woman behind her, "Go, take the human skin lantern I have prepared." "Clip every stroke.

I listened to the human skin lantern, and suddenly my back was a little cold.

After the cloud meeting, the woman really carried the cloud lantern back to the firewood. The lantern was swarthy throughout, not like human skin, but like linoleum cloth, and in some tones, it was painted with bright clouds, insects, fish, birds, and beasts.

The old lady took the lantern and stuffed it in my hand: "I bought this lantern with a lot of money back then, but I didn't expect to use it today." Wait until after dark, and you light a lantern and walk in the voice. This lantern will keep spinning, and then there will be a cloud beam of light leaking from it, and you will follow the light. I will be able to find my son's soul. ”

Then she pointed to the birds and beasts: "Every cloud animal represents the soul of the cloud path. After all these birds and beasts are lit up, the thirty-six souls will be collected. ”

I nodded, and put the lantern on the coffee table. This kind of thing makes me feel evil, and I don't want to hold it all the time.

The old lady looked at the time and said, "It's still early." Let's eat first. ”

The woman was very discerning and went into the kitchen, and Ding Ding was busy with the firewood.

By the time we had eaten, it was already dark. The old lady took the human skin lantern and lit the candle of Riyin. She walked over to the coffin, twisted the handle, and opened the back cover. There was a sound of a thin needle with a cloud, and she slowly inserted the needle into the corpse of the black glasses. After a while, he pulled out the firewood again.

At this time, I found that the clouds, birds, and beasts with the sound of lanterns were indeed lit up.

The old lady handed me the lantern and said, "When my son's soul is gone, it will definitely cling to something, and when you find it, you can pierce the clouds with this thin needle, and you will be able to receive the sound of the lantern." ”

I nodded: "I understand this." ”

Xue Qian patted me on the shoulder: "Lao Zhao, I have to follow you on this cloud trip." I'm a little uneasy. ”

I smiled, "Okay." Let's talk about the two of us and get the firewood back every day. ”

When the two of us were in the eighth gate, Mrs. Chai handed me a piece of paper and said, "Liyin is written in my birthdate and in my blood. I know that there is such a thing as calling the soul, and the best effect is done by the dear chai. I'm too old, so I'm so tired of you both. Bring some of these eight characters, and treat it as if I went there in person. ”

I agreed to Yunsheng and took the eight characters in my arms. R832
