Chapter 21 Fighting for the Shadows
My eyes were straight, and I didn't dare to come out, and I looked fixedly at the thing opposite the 'rune paper wall'. It looked like a whirlwind, in the middle of the rune wall, slowly rotating, and in the center of the 'wheal' was a small eye of the wind with a black hole. However, a whirlwind is usually made up of dust rolled up, but the whirlwind in front of you does not look like it is made of dust, but rather a cloud of smoke. Other than that, the whirlwind didn't even make a sound... If I usually see something like this, I will definitely reach forward and touch it. However, at this moment, when this scene, I don't dare, this whirlwind that inexplicably appeared on the side of the rune paper wall must be strange, could it be that this is the so-called 'yin'? …
My heart was beating hard, because of the sweat in my palms, the red rope was wet with me, my eyes stared at this thing without blinking, and my heart said, do you want to remove the rune paper and let it go? … With this in mind, my hand slowly reached for the rune paper in the middle of the rune paper wall... When I was about to touch the rune paper, I suddenly remembered what the master said, the master said that the soul of the dead was driven by the yin and was stopped on the way to the 'dihu', and he didn't know what would happen, so I was able to act at a moment's notice... Right now, I only feel the cold on the talisman paper in my chest, and I haven't seen the old man's soul from beginning to end, who knows if this whirlwind is 'changed' by his soul? … After such hesitation, I took my hand back and decided to see the situation first...
Suddenly, I saw something out of the ordinary... I don't know if it's because my eyes have adjusted to the darkness after looking for a long time, or if my senses have been delusional. Suddenly, it dawned on me that the whirlwind on the other side of the rune paper wall was actually double-layered! The color of the inner layer is slightly lighter than the outside, and between the two layers, there is a clear dividing line... I rubbed my eyes vigorously and looked again, and the feeling I had felt before seemed to be gone. Just when I was hesitating whether it was an illusion just now, an extra 'eye of the storm' suddenly appeared in the whirlwind!
In just seven or eight seconds, in my stunned state, the whirlwind split into two and became two streams, one of which moved quickly to the left of the road along the edge of the 'rune paper wall', and saw that it was about to leave the road and enter the field, when I was hesitating whether to stop it, my eyes flickered, and another whirlwind 'swished' around it and blocked the edge of the road, and the first whirlwind immediately stopped moving. The two whirlwinds were like two people, more than a foot apart, and they faced each other for more than ten seconds, first a whirlwind shook a few times and moved to the right of the road, and then a whirlwind stopped it again... After going back and forth like this, I finally understood that the whirlwind that wanted to leave the road was the soul of the old man. And the one that keeps blocking it must be 'yin'...
Master said earlier that he didn't know whether the specific 'yin' was tangible or intangible. At this point, I already know that 'yincha' is a tangible thing, but it is usually invisible to the naked eye, like a ghost...
I bit my lip tightly, looked at the whirlwind of 'Yin Difference', and recited the Jade Maiden's anti-closure trick, and when it came to the center of the 'rune paper wall', I suddenly withdrew a rune paper, put it aside, and pointed at the whirlwind with a loud shout. The whirling 'whoosh' suddenly drilled down the 'hole' in the rune paper wall, and disappeared in an instant.
I felt like I had lost my strength, and I was limp and fell to the ground. Looking at the opposite side of the rune paper wall, I couldn't help but jump up at once, because the whirlwind of the old man was gone! … When the 'Yin Cha' chased him just now, it was to my right, and the right was north, and it seemed that the old man was going north. I hurriedly jumped over the rune paper wall and chased north.
To the north is a vast wilderness, dark all around, and the feet are on the frozen ground, and the 'tom' sound is loud. I ran for more than half a mile in one go, and came to a cemetery. Tombstones stand high or low in front of each grave, looking cold and gloomy. In addition, there are some burnt paper items, such as wreaths, scattered all around.
When he came to the middle of the cemetery, the rune paper on his chest became cold again, and depending on the situation, the old man was in this cemetery. I looked left and right, it was dark, and I couldn't see anything clearly. In the middle of the night, looking for a dead ghost in a graveyard is numbing to think about at ordinary times.
In order to embolden myself, I put a horn on my mouth with my hand and shouted, "Old man, stop playing, go back with me..."
After shouting, I calmed down, closed my eyes, and recited the jade girl's anti-closure recipe again, and the moment I opened my eyes, I saw a 'person' squatting at my feet, judging from the figure, it was vaguely the old man...
I slowly crouched down, stretched the red thread in my hand, and slapped it towards the position of the 'person' I had just seen. Vaguely, I felt as if I was clasped by something, and I was overjoyed, so I quickly gathered the red thread, tied it to my ankle, and got up and stood up.
I took out my phone and looked at the time, it was almost there, the old man had been dead for nearly an hour, and he had to hurry up and bring his ghost back... Just as I was about to leave, I suddenly heard a 'bang'.
I was startled and hurried towards the sound, only to see a sacrificial pit between two graves more than two meters away from me, which had been dug to burn paper. It was black and there was a pile of paper ashes, and there was a paper figure lying faintly on the paper ashes. It didn't look like anything was out of the ordinary, and when I was about to leave again, there was another 'bang'. I took a step towards the pit and hunched over to look... My back buzzed like electricity, because I saw a whirlwind in the sacrificial pit... Negative... It's a bad thing! Why did this thing come along?!
I ran away, and every qiē around me was shaking in my eyes, and when I finally came to the road, I looked back, and there was nothing left. Touching my chest and gasping for a few breaths, I threw off my big stride and headed in the direction of the county seat.
I hadn't gone far when I suddenly felt that something was wrong, as if someone or something was following me. I hurriedly stopped, and listened attentively, but I heard no footsteps, and there was no other movement. However, the feeling of being stalked was stronger than before. I gritted my teeth, silently counted 'one, two, three' in my heart, and when I counted 'three', I turned around with 'ah' and stared wide-eyed, empty, nothing... Suddenly, as if I realized something, I looked up suddenly, and my head 'buzzed', because I saw that just above me, just above me, about two stories high, there was a person floating, and that person was like a kite in the shape of a human, not moving...
After reacting, I didn't have time to take a closer look, I turned around and ran, and just a few steps after running, I heard a 'click' sound, something fell from the sky, blocking in front of me, it was the person from before... This is a paper figure, and the colors on the paper, as well as the oil paint on the facial features, have all been returned. In addition to this, one leg was also broken, and there were burn marks on the broken part, black... The paper figure was only supported by one leg, and it was standing staggering about two or three meters away from me. Looking at the appearance of this paper figure, it should be the one I saw in the sacrificial pit earlier, how did this ghost thing live? … Suddenly, a thought flashed through my heart, this is not a paper figure at all, but a yin, and it is a yin that attaches to the paper man. There is no doubt that the reason why it stopped me was to keep the old man...
Dream... I 'hum', looked down, the red rope was still tied on the ankle, my heart must be certain, take a deep breath, I don't care if the paper man can understand it, and said word by word at it, this old man I'm going to decide, I hope you get out of the way, don't force me to do it.
The paper figure didn't move, and I mustered up my courage and took a step forward, but it still didn't move. Because I was afraid that the magic weapon would hurt the old man's soul, I only brought the stack of rune paper that the master gave me when I came out, like a seven-star sword, a lonely void rune, etc., and I didn't bring anything.
I secretly clenched my fists, sank the soles of my feet, and was about to kick towards the paper figure, when the whole person suddenly had a feeling of lightness, my head was 'buzzing', and my eyes were in a trance. The paper figure dangled in my eyes, and turned into a man dressed in white, his face was pitch black, and his facial features were blurred. As the man beckoned slowly to me, I heard a faint and resentful voice, 'Ah Leng...'
The voice seemed to have an irresistible magic, and I couldn't help but want to walk towards the person in front of me. Finally, I took one step and felt extremely comfortable. Just as I was about to take my second step, a voice in my heart said, 'Stop!' With a pain in the tip of my tongue, I felt as if I had fallen from the sky, and I opened my mouth wide and gasped for a sharp breath, and I regained my senses, and the voice I had heard before, and the man in white, all disappeared. The paper man was still standing there, it must have been its ghost just now, almost hooked my soul, and at the critical moment, driven by the instinct of the magician, I bit the tip of my tongue and saved myself.
I hurriedly squirted a mouthful of blood from the tip of my tongue at the paper figure, and 'snapped' it right in the body. The paper figure shook as if it had been struck by lightning, and then I heard a 'woo' sound, like the roar of the wind, but I couldn't feel the wind anywhere. As the paper figure shook a few times and fell to the ground, the sound disappeared.
I was already covered in cold sweat, and I saw the paper figure lying motionless on the road, and it seemed that the yin attached to it was gone. If I hadn't been a Qimen magician, my soul would have been snatched away just now. Misfortune is not something that only exists in myths and legends, there is such a thing in reality... I was afraid that something would happen again, so I didn't dare to stay, bypassed the paper man, ran all the way, and finally returned to the county seat...
(Have a great weekend to all)
