Chapter 114: Decision
When Old Man Hao said this, he was already exhausted. We all advised him to rest. However, he waved his hand: "Let me finish." "
We nodded. I sat back down.
Old man Hao said: "At that time, my soul was attached to the ghost talisman. I couldn't move, I didn't know what was going on outside the road, and I didn't know what was going on in the road. I was very worried in my heart. After I attached it to the charm, the suction in the ground didn't work for me. But I don't know how long it will take for this talisman to become invalid, am I going to be trapped here for the rest of my life?
"My soul stayed in the spell for a few hours, and then I felt like the talisman was failing. I tentatively slipped out of it. I found that the surroundings were already calm. The suction of the ground is gone, and those of us are dead. "
When Old Man Hao spoke here, there was a long silence, as if he was mourning for the dead. And we listened curiously. asked, "Uncle Hao." What happened then? Do you know the truth? What will you see for yourself? And was killed by himself? "
Old man Hao said slowly: "At that time, after floating out of the ghost charm, I used to look around. I found my corpse clutching a peachwood sword, and the hilt of the sword was stuck in a stranger, who was naturally one of the six of us. And his posture and expression when he was dying seemed familiar. It's clearly what I remember when I was dying. "
I scratched my head, thought carefully about Old Man Hao's words, and then frowned and said, "Uncle Hao, the corpse of this foreigner is exactly the same as when you were dying. In this case, it seems that there is only one possibility"
Apparently Wushuang also thought of it, she blurted out and said, "Unless, when you are dying, your soul is in the body of this foreigner. "
Old man Hao nodded and said, "That place is too evil, not to mention, my body can't be wanted, only my soul remains." So I went out day and night, intending to flee back. I escaped all the way, thought about it all the way, and gradually, figured it out.
"I don't know what kind of trap there is in that place, and our souls are all disturbed at night, inexplicably. One of the people who must have woken up first, must have been startled when he saw himself asleep beside him, and then cried out. Then the others woke up. Originally, as long as one person opened his mouth and discussed with each other, he would find a flaw, but the bad thing is that we have experienced a series of inexplicable deaths before. We have become frightened birds, and suddenly we see another self, and we don't have time to think about it, and our first reaction is that the other party must have come to kill me, and I want to protect myself, so I will kill him. In this way, the six of us died unjustly. "
Old man Hao sighed when he said this. The tone was full of sadness.
And based on his experience, we can gradually guess the situation at that time.
Old man Hao said that when his soul was about to be sucked to the ground, his body felt out a ghost charm and saved him. We speculate that the soul that stayed in Old Man Hao's body at that time should be his fellow countryman, that is, the Taoist friend who came here with him.
When Old Man Hao was alive, Daoyou failed to recognize him and killed him with a sword. It wasn't until he saw his soul that he suddenly repented. Later, he saw that Old Man Hao was in trouble, so he saved his life with a ghost charm.
We asked Old Man Hao, "What happened to that fellow Daoist?" Is he alive? "
Old man Hao shook his head: "I didn't find his soul when I came out, according to my speculation, he was already seriously injured at that time, and he tried his best to draw that ghost talisman, and it was precisely because he was going to die at that time, and the oil ran out of lights, so the talisman was not perfect, and it expired after a few hours." After drawing the talisman, he should be dead soon. His soul was most likely sucked into the ground. "
When we heard this, we were all silent. I don't know what to say.
Old man Hao sighed, full of regret: "It's a pity that the cause of death of other people has not been figured out so far, in short, there is a very good chance that there are clues to wizards in that place, but at the same time, there is also a great danger hidden." "
We were all lost in thought, no doubt wondering how to figure out how to do it again.
Only the fat man asked Old Man Hao with a concerned face: "Master, how did you meet that fox later?" We almost couldn't find you. "
Old man Hao smiled bitterly: "I escaped from the mountains and originally wanted to find you. But I didn't expect to meet people from the underworld halfway through. It looks like my longevity is over. At that time, I panicked and ran around in the alleys of Xi'an. Originally, I was about to be caught, but fortunately, I met a former Taoist friend, who was out of my body at that time, went to hook the soul, and after learning about my situation, he took great risks to cover for me. I was able to escape and hide in an alley. Although I am hiding for the time being, the people of the underworld are not easy to mess with, as long as it takes a while, they will definitely find me.
"When I was in a hurry, I didn't know that there was a white fox living in this alley, and I was swallowed by it. Then, my soul began to be refined by the white fox, becoming thinner and thinner day by day. However, because of this, I escaped the pursuit of those in the underworld and was able to come back to tell you about the wizards. "
Old man Hao talked for most of the night, he was already exhausted, and under the persuasion of Old Man Wu, he returned to the peach wood sword to recuperate. And a few of us sat silently in the living room, discussing the news that Old Man Hao had brought back.
I discussed with Wushuang for a while, and decided to follow Old Man Hao's route again, and we must find clues to the wizard.
Wen Yu shook his head and persuaded the two of us: "Old man Hao followed more than a hundred Taoist priests in, what about the end?" Only one soul escaped. It's too dangerous for the two of you to go in, I'm afraid you'll die before you can find the wizard. "
I shook my head: "How many of the more than 100 of them were killed by cannibalism?" I'm different from Wushuang, we're in a group. This will certainly not be the case. "
Wen Yu raised her eyebrows: "Really?" Then I ask you. Except for the last six people, how do the rest of the people explain? How did they die? If nothing else, let's just say that the group of people who fled were killed dozens of miles away, and the bodies were returned. Do you think you two can handle this? "
Wen Yu said that I really don't know the bottom of my heart. But we worked hard all the way, just to find a genius, and there was absolutely no reason not to go, so I asked for help and looked at the paper Zha Wu: "Old man Wu, what do you say." "
Paper Zha Wu's eyes rolled, as if he was playing some ghost idea, and then, he said lightly: "Wen Yu is right, if you two go, it will be too dangerous." "
When I heard this, I was immediately disappointed.
However, the paper turned around and continued: "However, if we go with you, it will be different. There are many soldiers who are not fine, and Old Man Hao and they failed because they were too mixed. A few of us work together, be careful in everything, and we should succeed. What's more, we have another master here. After speaking, he pointed at Wen Yu.
Wen Yu stopped smiling and turned into a look of surprise: "What do you mean?" I'm going too? "
Paper Zha Wu said as a matter of course: "Of course you have to go." We're counting on you. "
Wen Yu shook his head: "It's too dangerous there, even if I go, I'm not sure I'll be able to come back alive." So, I'm going to take revenge first. "
Paper Zha Wu looked disappointed: "What kind of revenge do you have, Wen Yu, let's distinguish the priorities, once we find the wizard, in case we can break the curse, this is a great event for thousands of generations, and in the future, it will be molded with a golden statue by the disciples and grandchildren, and put it in the temple for worship." "
Wen Yu looked uninterested: "I have sensed those three mandrills, and I will set off tomorrow, in case the mandrills are separated from their owners, I will regret them for the rest of my life." "
Then, Wen Yu looked at me: "Xu You, if you help me avenge first, I will go with you to find a wizard, how about it?" "
I hesitated for a moment and said, "I have to think about it." "
Wen Yu nodded and said, "You'd better think clearly." That place is too dangerous. If you really want to go, just wait for me, and when I get my revenge and have no worries, I'll help you again. "
I nodded silently and didn't speak.
Then, Wen Yu went back to his room and went to sleep.
There were four people left in the living room. After arguing for half the night, I couldn't make a decision. When the rooster was about to crow, Paper Zha Wu returned to the peachwood sword. And a few of us also fell asleep.
By the time I woke up again, it was already noon. There were a few lunch boxes in the living room, and the rest of the people were staggering around on the sofa watching TV.
Wushuang saw me coming over, handed me a note, and said to me, "Wen Yu left it for you." "
I opened it and found that there was a line written inside: "I'm going to take revenge, three days, wait for me." "
I sat on the couch, grabbed a random box of lunch, and asked, "What do you guys think?" "
"We thought about it," said the thin man, "and it would be better to wait for her to come back." We have been delayed for so long, and the more we get to the bottom, the more we can't be in a hurry, otherwise, we will lose more than we gain. "
I nodded, threw the note on the table, and sighed, "It's a pity, I promised to help her avenge before, but in the end, she still has to go by herself." "
Wushuang walked over, crumpled the note, threw it in the trash, and said: "Don't be beautiful, just your two times, it's also a burden to follow her, she wants you to take revenge with her in every possible way, I don't know what the hell Lu Dao is doing, and I don't know if I sell you when the time comes."
