The image of those two shadows is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so as soon as Li Mu saw it, he immediately recognized that it was the two black and white impermanence envoys in the underworld.

"Are you all ready?" An Zhiquan also became nervous when he saw the appearance of black and white impermanence.

Li Mu glanced back at his uncle, and saw that his uncle's body was tied up with an old hemp rope, which was stained with rooster blood, and a wicker was inserted in the four corners of the bed. Li Mu also cautiously checked it and replied to An Zhiquan: "It's all ready!" ”

The next two men hid in the corner of the room, holding their breath, ready to strike.

The black and white shadow slowly approached the room, and Li Mu could see it more clearly. After a closer look at this black and white impermanence, I found that the black impermanence was not only dressed in a black robe, but even his face was black, and his body was short and fat, but the white impermanence was just the opposite of this black impermanence. Dressed in a white robe, his face was pale, and he was tall and thin. The black impermanence had a serious face, holding a soul hook chain in his hand, and the high hat on his head said "Catching you", which looked particularly eerie and terrifying, especially when he walked closer, Li Mu could hear the sound of the soul hook chain dragging on the ground, which made people shudder. And that Bai Wuchang was smiling, often open, and the spirit flag in his hand was playing back and forth, and the high hat on his head actually wrote "You are here too", which made Bai Wuchang look extremely funny.

But whether it was terrifying or funny, Li Mu knew that these two were here to detain souls.

Black and white impermanence went straight to Uncle Li Mu's room from the door of the house, and when he saw Uncle Li Mu lying on the bed, the white impermanence immediately danced the spirit flag, and he didn't know what he was singing in his mouth. As Bai Wuchang's hand moved faster, the more urgent the recitation became, and Li Mu and An Zhiquan saw that Uncle Li Mu's soul began to slowly leave his body. The black soul on the side began to leave the body, and then prepared the soul hook chain, and once the soul was completely separated from the body, he would trap the soul hook chain.

But when Uncle Li Mu's soul was about to leave his body, the hemp rope on his body suddenly flashed with a trace of red light, blocking the soul.

Bai Wuchang saw this situation and hurriedly cast a spell, and then the spirit flag in his hand suddenly enlarged, and then shot a white light on the spirit flag until Uncle Li Mu's soul. But as soon as the white light reached the bedside, the four wicker sticks were drawn towards the white light together, and the white light was dispersed.

Hei Wuchang didn't wait when he saw that Bai Wuchang's spell was invalid, he threw up the soul hook chain in his hand and put it directly on Uncle Li Mu's body. This time, the four wickers were so bad that they couldn't stop the soul chain, so the soul chain directly tied Uncle Li Mu's body.

Hei Wuchang held the end of the soul hook chain in his hand, and when he pulled it hard, he saw that Uncle Li Mu's soul was suddenly pulled up, but Hei Wuchang just pulled the soul up and couldn't let it get out of his body. It turned out that Uncle Li Mu's two hands had a hair tied to the little fingers, and this hair was really what Li Mu asked his two cousins for. These two hairs represent the lovesickness of parents and children, and at this time, this lovesick hair tied Uncle Li Mu's soul.

Black and white impermanence then tried to use other methods to seduce the soul, but to no avail, and just when they were worried, suddenly a rooster crowed outside the house. This made Black and White Impermanence immediately give up the soul hook and prepare to go back to the underworld first, and can only come back next time.

After the black and white impermanence left, Li Mu also wiped the sweat on his body. He didn't expect that he would toss for such a long time, if he wasn't fully prepared, I'm afraid that his uncle's soul would really be hooked away tonight. However, although he escaped tonight, he only bought his uncle three days. Because the misfortune is not successful, it must be three days before you can come back. In other words, next time, it will not be so simple to stop the impermanence of the soul. In other words, Li Mu only has three days left if he wants to bring his uncle back to the sky. However, three days should be enough for the two.

After dawn, the family didn't know what happened under the same roof, the aunt still took care of the dying uncle, and the others were also preparing things for Uncle Li Mu's future.

Li Mu and An Zhiquan also took a nap after the black and white impermanence left, and after breakfast, the two of them felt that they would look at the place where his uncle usually carried water.

The big river was in front of Uncle Li Mu's house, and the two of them could see it as soon as they walked a few steps forward from the gate.

The river bank is two or three meters high from the water surface, and because the water from the river is often used, the river side is simply built with a few steps. Each staircase is topped with a large irregular stone, while at the bottom is the largest stone. Half of the stone is on the shore and the other half is extending into the water. This makes this stone a good place to get water, and Uncle Li Mu also carries water here.

The two stood on the bank of the river and looked at the river in front of them. It seems that An Zhiquan said to Li Mu after a while: "The Yangtze River is the largest river and the largest dragon, and the big river in front of me is born from the Yangtze River, which can be regarded as a young dragon." However, judging from the trend of this big river, it is a trapped dragon water potential, so it is easy to hide dirt and dirt. Fortunately, there are sluices at both ends that can change the water regularly, so that there will not be a lot of dirt in it. I guess a lot of people died in this river! ”

Indeed, as An Zhiquan said, several people die in this big river every year, either swimming and drowning, or inexplicably falling into the water. Among them, what Li Mu remembers even more vividly is an incident that his aunt experienced back then.

At that time, Li Mu had not yet been born, so he listened to his grandmother about this matter. I remember that at that time, his second aunt was only sixteen years old, and it was summer. Li Mu's second aunt came back from planting rice in the field, but when she walked to the door of her house, Li Mu's second aunt suddenly ran straight towards the river. At first, everyone thought that Li Mu's second aunt wanted to wash by the river, but Li Mu's second aunt didn't go down step by step, but ran. Just as the adults were shouting, Li Mu's second aunt's bare feet were cut by the glass ballast by the river. And it was precisely because of this glass scratching her foot that Li Mu's second aunt woke up in time. When Li Mu's second aunt returned to the shore by herself, everyone asked Li Mu's second aunt what happened, but Li Mu told the adults that they saw a young man waving to her in the river, and then she rushed towards the river uncontrollably.

Later, Grandma Li Mu went to find the local goddess, and the goddess said that the young man was a water ghost and wanted to marry Yin, so she found Li Mu's second aunt. To be honest, Li Mu's three aunts were indeed beautiful girls in the local area at that time. When Grandma Li Mu heard that the water ghost was going to marry her, she panicked and hurriedly asked the goddess what to do. The goddess also had some skills, so she asked Grandma Li Mu to prepare a piece of Li Mu's second aunt's underwear, and then use Li Mu's second aunt's blood to write the eight characters of her birthday on it, and wait until twelve o'clock in the evening to burn it by the river, so that it can be. Sure enough, according to the instructions of the grandmother, she burned a piece of Li Mu's second aunt's underwear by the river, and I heard Grandma Li Mu say that the ashes of the clothes after burning were kept very intact. In the end, as soon as the gray wind blew, the whole fell into the river, and then Li Mu's second aunt no longer rushed to the river.

What happened to Uncle Li Mu this time was obviously different from the situation of his second aunt, so the way it was handled was definitely different. An Zhiquan looked at it for a while before he vaguely saw the hidden meaning.

Every river must have a river god, but not all river gods are gods, like the big river in front of them, the river gods have ghosts. But after all, being a river god is boring and boring, and being a ghost of a river god for a long time is like finding someone to replace you. It's similar to a normal ghost looking for a stand-in, but it's different. And the situation like Uncle Li Mu belongs to the former, that is to say, it is not an ordinary water ghost who catches Uncle Li Mu's feet, but a water ghost who is a river god. This ghost first made Uncle Li Mu feel that Uncle Li Mu's life was over, but when they went to check the book of life and death, they would definitely find the mistake, but this back and forth will definitely make it difficult for Uncle Li Mu to come back to life, which will inevitably make Uncle Li Mu a lonely ghost, and that ghost can take the opportunity to let Uncle Li Mu replace him as a river god.

"What then?"

Li Mu also learned from An Zhiquan's words that his uncle was not an ordinary ghost, but met the river god to find a successor.

"It's obviously not easy to solve, but it's not impossible. By the way, do you have a master here who makes paper ties? ”

"Paper master? Can I ask my mom about this? ”

"Okay, then let's go back first." After speaking, the two returned to Uncle Li Mu's house.

"What are you looking for a paper master?" Li Mu's mother saw the two of them standing by the river for a long time, but as soon as they came back, they asked for paper. Although people must have paper ties after they die, it is also when they are four or seven, how can anyone find it before they die.

"That one we just discussed, maybe we can save the uncle."

As soon as Li Mu's words came out, the family suddenly became silent, obviously shocked by Li Mu's words. You must know that even the hospital in the provincial capital said that there was no hope of life, and the family was ready. Especially Aunt Li Mu, after a short period of shock, grabbed Li Mu's hand and cried: "Amu, does your uncle really have any hope of being saved?" Don't deliberately lie to your aunt! "Aunt Li Mu, who is too sad, really can't stand the toss anymore.

Li Mu saw that his aunt's red and swollen eyes were filled with tears, and his heart was also sour, he decided that he must save his uncle, so he nodded heavily.

As soon as Li Mu nodded, his aunt's emotions immediately became excited, and she begged Li Mu to save his uncle. Because of his emotional excitement, he fainted several times in the middle, which scared everyone enough. Li Mu hurriedly asked his mother to help his aunt to the room to rest, and then asked his father to take him and An Zhiquan to find the paper master.

There is only one paper master in the village, who lives in the most remote part of the village. There are many reeds around, which makes it more convenient for the paper master to use local materials.

The paper master was a sixty-year-old man, with white hair, a lean body, and a pair of hands more like ghost melons. When Li Mu came to his door, the paper master was tying up a house.

"Master Zhang, are you busy?" Li Mu's father stepped forward to say hello.

That master raised his head when he heard someone shouting at him, but when he saw Li Mu and An Zhiquan, his face changed suddenly.
