Chapter 469: Dark Lamp
A trace of uneasiness welled up in everyone's hearts. Yes, since this is an empty ship, who lit the lanterns on board? If we see a ghost, we won't be suspicious of it, because it's unknown and weird, and it makes people feel uneasy.
While we were staring at the lantern on the bow of the ship, there was a fog on the sea. A thick black fog hung over the sea, and we couldn't even see the water beneath the boat. Between the whole heaven and the earth, there was a fog and nothing to see, only the faint yellow wind lamp on the bow of the ship.
The black fog is getting bigger and thicker, making people unable to distinguish the direction in the fog, and the fog and darkness of the black fog are all around them. This feeling of not being able to understand the direction even makes people feel a little panic in their hearts.
When this trace of panic came to my heart, I suddenly felt that this black fog was very wrong, so I hurriedly told Yang Qing behind me to be careful. However, as soon as I turned around, I saw that there was a black fog behind me, and I couldn't see Yang Qing and them at all, as if I was the only one standing in the darkness on the entire ship.
I hurriedly called: "Yang Qing......"
But I didn't hear her answer, so I began to panic in my heart, and called Chen Xianyi and Lao Tang again, but there was still no answer. I stretched out my hand to touch them, but my hands stretched out and touched them in the black mist, and the place where Yang Qing and them were standing before was empty, and they were gone!
I panicked and knew something was wrong. At the moment, they were busy calling Yang Qing their names, but in the vast black fog, where were their voices, as if they didn't exist at all.
The whole world was foggy, only the wind lantern hanging on the bow of the ship revealed a faint yellow light, and this dim wind lamp continued to pass through the layers of thick fog. To be honest, I couldn't tell if the black fog was drifting towards the ship or if the ship was moving through the black fog.
When I looked at the dim wind lamp, it seemed to have a magical power, and I couldn't help but walk towards it. My mind went blank.
The wind lamp got brighter and brighter, brighter and brighter, so bright that only this wind lamp was left in my eyes. At this time, I reacted violently and secretly screamed that there was something wrong with this wind lamp. At that moment, he bit the tip of his tongue, and his whole body was agitated, and he suddenly woke up. When I looked up, the wind lamp was still dim, and the black fog was still dense and I couldn't see.
However, at this time, I saw three dark figures standing under the wind lamp on the bow of the ship.
The three black figures were in the black mist, with their backs to me, and I couldn't see their faces clearly. I called: "Yang Qing...... Brother...... Old soup ......"
But the three black shadows did not react at all, still with their backs to me, and still walking towards the bow of the boat, towards the wind lamp.
At this time, I couldn't tell whether the three black shadows were Yang Qing or the three ghosts. However, I couldn't care so much anymore, and thought to myself that if those three were ghosts, Lao Tzu would take them. Thinking of this, I walked over to the three dark shadows......
In a few arrows, I caught up with the three black shadows, and by this time they had come to the front of the bow of the ship and stood under the wind lamp. In the dim light of the wind lamp, I finally saw them clearly, three miserable white faces, these three people were none other than Yang Qing, Chen Xianyi and Lao Tang!
When I saw that these three people turned out to be them, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief, so I patted Chen Xianyi on the shoulder and said, "You scared me to death, why should you shout that you shouldn't?" ”
However, when I slapped them, they didn't react and continued to walk forward. But there was no way ahead of them, and now they were standing at the bow of the ship, and if they went any further, they would have jumped into the sea!
Seeing this, I was in a hurry to photograph them, but all three of them seemed to have lost their souls, as if they didn't feel my existence at all.
When I saw it, the three of them had blank eyes, empty eyes, and they looked very wrong. At this time, I thought that I had almost lost my soul before, and I immediately reacted, knowing that it must be the cause of the wind lamp on the bow of the ship. So I jumped up immediately, ripped off the wind lamp, threw it on the ground, and trampled it to pieces with one kick!
Strange to say, as soon as the wind lamp went out, the whole surrounding area suddenly lit up. The thick black fog before was gone in an instant, and when I looked up, a bright moon hung high in the sky, and the sea below the moonlight was like a mirror, reflecting a bright moon in the water......
Anyway, at this moment, Yang Qing and the three of them immediately came to their senses, and when they saw that their front feet actually stepped out of the bow of the boat, they were so frightened that they retreated.
Yang Qing was so frightened that her face turned pale, while Lao Tang and Chen Xianyi secretly scolded what was going on!
Seeing that they had all come to their senses, I finally breathed a sigh of relief, so I said to them, "You almost committed suicide by jumping into the sea just now!" ”
When I said this, all three of them clutched their chests, obviously terrified. Say to me, "How can this be? ”
I pointed to the lantern under my feet that I had stepped on flat, and said, "It's this lamp, it's very evil, I almost caught its way just now, fortunately, I reacted in time, otherwise I'm afraid the four of us would have been overboard." ”
Hearing me say this, the three of them all reacted, and then, Yang Qing shouted, "Just ...... I was scared and kept calling your names, but none of you answered me, as if you had all disappeared, and I was scared so I went to the light, could it be that there was something wrong with the light? ”
Chen Xianyi and Lao Tang also nodded again and again, claiming that they were in the same situation, because of the fog, and then they couldn't find us, and then they ran to jump into the sea and lost consciousness completely.
"You called my name? Why didn't I hear that? "I was amazed.
All three of them nodded, saying that they had been calling everyone's names.
When I heard them say that, I said, "To be honest, I've been calling your names all the time, but now it seems that everyone was fascinated by this lamp just now, so everyone seems to have lost their way and lost the ability to perceive everything around them." ”
Everyone agreed with my statement, but they all had lingering palpitations, and it was obvious that what had just happened made everyone very afraid.
At this time, Lao Tang pointed to the wind lantern on the deck and asked me, what kind of lamp is this, how can it be so evil?
To be honest, I'm curious that there is no ghost on this ship, just a lamp, and it almost gave the four of us an answer. You must know that we are still Mr. Yin and Yang, if this thing spreads, won't it make insiders laugh and lose their big teeth?
I was angry and angry, so I squatted down to check the wind lamp, and when I saw it, I saw that the problem was coming, and I couldn't help but exclaim: "It turns out that this is actually a dark lamp!" ”
"Dark Lantern?" Chen Xianyi was stunned for a moment, hurriedly approached to take a look, and then shouted: "Damn, it's really a dark lamp, no wonder we knew its way just now, this thing is made to attract souls." ”
Yang Qing and Lao Tang were both frightened and asked me what the hell was going on?
Lao Tang is Lan Dao, Yang Qing is an ordinary person, and it is normal for the two of them to not know what a dark lamp is, so I explained it to them. I said, "The so-called dark lamp is a lamp in the underworld, and the other is a lamp lit by a person in the yang world to light the way for the souls of the dead. Regardless of whether it is in the underworld or ignited by the people of the yang world, its role is to guide the ghosts. It is said that the road from the underworld to the yang world is very dark, very dark, and on the half-ghost festival in the seventh month, or on the night of death, or on the night of the first seventh, because in order to let the soul of the dead go to the underworld, or return to the sun, it is necessary to light the lamp of the dead, and only with this lamp can the soul of the dead light the way back home or down. In other words, this dark lamp is for the souls of the dead. This kind of lamp hangs on the bow of the ship to guide the way, and it will naturally draw out our souls. ”
After Yang Qing and the others heard this, they were immediately afraid. Who said that this lamp was hung on the bow of the ship?
We looked at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly, who would know who hung it on the bow of the ship!
However, now we are fortunate that nothing has happened, and we can be regarded as escaping death. As for the question of how this dark lantern came to be hung on the bow of the ship, it is not so important.
At this time, Chen Xianyi seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly exclaimed: "Look! Look! What is that? ”
As soon as we heard this, we all turned our heads and looked in the direction that Chen Xianyi was pointing, only to see that in front of the ship, there was a tall black shadow in front of us in the middle of the ocean, and this black shadow was like a huge demon in the moonlight, showing a hideous and terrifying appearance in front of us. But when I looked closely, I realized that it was actually a big mountain! ”
