Chapter 3: The Soul Collector

I teach He Feng witchcraft at the top of Gangshan Mountain, half a month, every morning, I also want to exercise, and it is a very good place.

He Feng is very smart, but sometimes he will be illegal, which makes me a little strange.

What I taught He Feng was nothing more than moving things, divination within five days, all of them were Xiao Wu, he learned a little strangely, half a month, and some couldn't control it, but he was so excited that he couldn't do it.

"He Feng, remember, good witch."

"Master, don't worry."

I am happy when he calls me master, He Feng is an expert, he is indeed very powerful, I don't want to say anything more, I just want him to have a development in witchcraft, this is my ultimate goal.

He Feng is a smart man, he knows, I can only teach so much.

There's always, always a yin place in my head, and I'm weird. Soul Carrier, I'm too curious about this, there are some people like this, thirteen people, who are Yin numbers.

I sat by the river and thought about the underworld, what should that be? In the north.

The fourth uncle called me and said.

"I seem to know where it is, but I'm not sure."

The fourth uncle is also thinking about this, which is really interesting.

I'll go to Hongshi Village, the fourth uncle said.

"Stay here today, and we'll go tomorrow morning."

I asked the fourth uncle where the yin land was, and he said that he would talk about it in the morning.

Hongshi Village is a place with beautiful scenery, with mountains on three sides and a water in the middle, but because it is a village of tomb insects, there are a lot of weirdness, it looks like an ordinary village, ordinary people, but it is definitely not so simple, there are too many things in it.

The next day, the fourth uncle took me from the back mountain, walked the mountain beam, and walked all the way.

"Fourth uncle, are you taking me to find the yin land?"

"Yes, but I'm not sure, someone in the tomb worm mentioned the underworld, it seems that someone knows, and the approximate location is also in this direction, I asked a few people, they all seemed to avoid it, and they all avoided it as soon as they mentioned it, and looked at me with that look, they actually knew, and I didn't know, this is really a strange thing."

I think it's also strange that in Hongshi Village, there are too few things that the fourth uncle doesn't know, and they hide it from the fourth uncle, or rather, they don't dare to mention it, they don't want to mention it, and they are afraid of something, which I can understand.

When it was almost dark, the fourth uncle stopped and said.

"That's not going to work, we'll have to find a place to rest and leave at dawn."

I didn't expect to walk so far, and I can't go back at night, this is too surprising to me, the mobile phone can't get through, they must be in a hurry, but there is no way, just walk back, it is estimated that the sky is almost dawn, here in the forest, walking at night is a lot of danger.

My fourth uncle and I were looking for a place to rest.

That day, both of us rarely spoke and were too lazy to speak.

As soon as dawn came, we got up and left, and walked for another two hours, said the fourth uncle.

"Three trees, this is it, you look at the three trees that have grown on that stone for almost a thousand years, they mentioned three trees, and sure enough, there are three trees."

I saw three big trees, growing on a big rock at the highest point.

"It should be here, remember, be careful, we don't know what's going to happen in the underworld."

I got nervous, I walked with the fourth uncle to the three trees, looked not far away, walked up, and walked for more than an hour, to the bottom of the mountain, the fourth uncle said.

"Go up."

I hesitated for a moment and observed for a long time, but I didn't see anything strange.

The fourth uncle and I climbed up, and forty minutes later, we came to the bottom of the three trees, which was a platform, more than 100 square meters, and the three trees grew on it, and they fell through the cracks in the stones, but I didn't expect it to grow so big.

The fourth uncle walked behind a tree, and he called me. In my past, there was a yin character in the ground, so there must be a ground character, and sure enough, there was a ground character in another tree, which is the yin land, and we didn't find anything strange.

I sat down, the fourth uncle said.

"We're going to get out of here, I don't feel right."

I jumped up again, and the fourth uncle's feeling was sometimes very accurate.

We went west and hid in the trees.

"I have a feeling that the Spirits are coming."

Sure enough, within half an hour, thirteen spirit carriers walked here tiredly, each carrying a black jar, which was supposed to contain a soul.

Thirteen people went to the underworld, under the three trees, and suddenly there was no more, and the fourth uncle and I were stunned.

"What's going on?"

"Don't move, we'll just watch and see how it goes."

We waited until the afternoon, and the thirteen spirit-bearers did not return.

As we were about to pass, a man appeared, an old lady, eccentric, looking around and disappearing in the underworld.

"This is the spirit collector, let's keep an eye on this old lady, let's not provoke the spirit collector first, and then see the situation."

After more than an hour, the old lady came out with a black jar on her back, and she looked around and went down the mountain.

"Keep up."

We followed the old lady, who looked to be over eighty years old, but her legs and feet were flexible, and my fourth uncle and I followed.

Walking along the path, after more than two hours, a village appeared in front of us, and the old lady entered the village and entered a courtyard.

"What kind of village is this?"

"I don't know, there are more than 20 households, it should be a natural village."

I want to go into the village, said the fourth uncle.

"Observe, don't rush in, it's going to be dangerous."

My fourth uncle and I sat behind the bush and observed, but I could see that it was an ordinary village, with open land and a well, and I couldn't see any difference from other villages.

The fourth uncle still won't let me go down, and people will come out of the village from time to time, and it's normal to go in. However, if there is a soul collector, it seems abnormal.

It was slowly getting dark, and the fourth uncle agreed to enter the village, so we went around from behind, went directly to the old lady's house, climbed in through the back wall, and approached the house, which was built with local materials and stones.

The fourth uncle and I leaned against the wall and listened, but we couldn't hear any sound, and the fourth uncle looked in from the small window, and the fourth uncle looked at it for less than a few seconds, and then squatted down and waved his hand away.

I knew there might be some trouble, so we went back to the mountain.

"Fourth uncle, what's the situation?"

"It's so weird, the old lady is not in the room, but the portrait on the wall is Niu Huluwan."

I was stunned for a moment, knowing that Niu Huluwan was a Gege, beautiful, and a Gege of the Manchus.

"What does that mean?"

"It's nothing, but there's a portrait of me hanging across the street, and I'm not sure if it's mine, because it's a painting, and I'm not sure about some places."

I was stunned, the old lady's house hung a portrait of Niu Huluwan, it could be the fourth uncle's? That's impossible.

"Does it look alike?"

"It's possible, but I think it's too weird, so we'll have to be very careful."

After ten o'clock, there was no light in the small village, it was pitch black, and there were no fingers stretched out, which was probably what it looked like. The fourth uncle and I went down again.

"Let's go inside."

After the fourth uncle finished speaking, I glanced at the fourth uncle and entered the house? Isn't this the rhythm of looking for death? Even if you don't steal things, let the village find out, and you are also beaten with sticks.

I went to the front yard with the fourth uncle, the yard was not big, we were close to the window, the fourth uncle looked in, and then squatted down and shook his head.

When I walked to the door, I didn't lock the door, it seems that this village should be very safe, and it should be simple, and it will not be closed at night.

The fourth uncle gently opened the door and went in, I followed up, the north and south houses, the fourth uncle went to the north house, opened the door, the north and south pits, no one lived, the fourth uncle looked around, because it was too dark, I had to look closer to every place.

There were two cabinets, a table, chairs, and no quilts on the kang, and apparently no one lived in this house.

The fourth uncle pointed to it, the south house, there are only two rooms, the north house does not, there must be someone in the south house, go to the south house? That's really looking for death.

I waved my hand. The fourth uncle ignored me and walked over gently, he actually opened the door, I was ready to go, I didn't want to die in this village where I didn't know the name.

The fourth uncle actually went in, he went in and stood there without moving, called me for a long time, his voice was very soft, he dared to call me, I hesitated and passed, I went in, God, there is no one in the south house, the old lady is obviously in this house, she doesn't sleep in the house in the middle of the night, where will she go?

I looked, there was indeed a picture of the fourth uncle hanging on the wall, I was stunned, it was really the fourth uncle, there was absolutely nothing wrong with that, we were in a daze, there was a coughing sound, the fourth uncle and I squatted in the corner at once, footsteps, I thought to myself, this time it was over, I was blocked in the house.

The footsteps entered, it was the old lady, who entered the house, did not light the lamp, and went directly to the kang to lie down and sleep, I strangled it, scared me to death.

I and the fourth uncle slowly turned out, out, I glanced at the north house, a big face looked at us at the glass of the north house, big eyes, I screamed in fright, and then ran, the fourth uncle scolded me to run, rushed out of the yard, I ran up the mountain, to the mountain, I stopped, the fourth uncle ran for half a day.

"What is your second thing?"

"Didn't you see that guy in the North House?"

"See, so what?"

"It's really strange, that person saw that we didn't react, didn't move or chase, and scared me to death."

"Enter the village at dawn and go directly to the old lady."

The fourth uncle said.

"I think it should be, it feels like a thief, it's too exciting, I can't stand it."

At dawn, we went into the village, and the fourth uncle went to the first house, to eat, that family was a family of three, and he was very kind to people, and gave us food and drink, and we came out and went to the old lady's house, and went in, and the leaves that fell from the old lady's yard were swept down.

"Auntie, we are passing by, I want to ask for directions, and take a break by the way."

The old lady looked at the fourth uncle, stared at him, and didn't speak, the fourth uncle and I were a little hairy, this old lady was the soul collector, she looked very ordinary, and no one thought that she was the soul collector.

"Niu Hu Lushun, my son!"

The old lady scared me this time, she went over with the fourth uncle on her left, and then hugged the fourth uncle and cried, I was stupid, what does this mean? Fourth Uncle is her son? The fourth uncle is indeed called Niu Hu Lushun.

I look at the fourth uncle's expression, no! The fourth uncle looked dazed and at a loss.

"Auntie, did you recognize the wrong person?"

"Shun, can my mother still admit her son as wrong?"

The fourth uncle was completely dumbfounded. The old lady took the fourth uncle's hand and went into the house, pointing to the portrait on the wall and said.

"Look, that's you, isn't it? Look at the one behind you, it's your sister Niu Huluwan. ”

The fourth uncle didn't speak, I looked at the fourth uncle, the fourth uncle, don't let me play suspense, I can't stand it.

"Auntie, who was that person in the North House yesterday?"

"That's Shun's father, but it's been dead for twelve years, and he'll come back when he's fine, standing there staring at him with big eyes, he thinks about his son, Shun and Wan disappeared twelve years ago, was abducted, and hasn't been found, today you can be regarded as coming back, do you remember this home? You see, take a good look, think about it. ”

The fourth uncle sat under the kang, he shook his head, and he couldn't remember it all the time.

"Fourth uncle, are you amnesia?"

The fourth uncle pulled me out and whispered.

"I have parents, a wife, and a child in Redstone Village, and although they are dead, it is a fact, and there is a mother, a father, and a sister."

"However, the surname and name are all right, and the portrait on the wall is also correct, how do you explain it?"

"I'll explain your big head."

The fourth uncle was so angry that he hit me with a burst of applause, and I screamed in pain.

The fourth uncle can't explain it clearly, no one can explain it clearly, but I don't think there is such a coincidence, it must be that the fourth uncle has a memory loss.
