Chapter Twenty-Six: The Bones

The strange baby was not dead, so when the incense touched it, it let out a deafening baby cry, twisting the little monkey's body vigorously, and its eyes revealed extreme horror and unwillingness.

But it didn't work, it was like a block of ice, it melted quickly when it met the heat of the incense, expanding from one point to a hole, and then the incense penetrated the body, and continued to expand, and the body was burned and disconnected from the middle, until it completely dissolved into nothingness, and became a puff of smoke and dissipated into the air.

At this time, all the people present finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, what we met and fought against was such a powerful monster, and it was completely dependent on Uncle Bao's calculations, as well as our mutual cooperation and luck. If you do it again, I don't know what the ending will be!

But I wonder why there is no movement under my feet. Judging from the excitement and sadness of the female ghost just now, it is impossible for the death of this strange baby not to hit her, but why didn't she react?

It's hopeless! Is there hope for a ghost?

Uncle Bao on the other side didn't see much joy, subduing such a powerful ghost, still with that calm and even wooden expression, even Bao Datong didn't say much, and silently cleaned up the things scattered on the ground, including the incense that burned around and didn't see half of the consumption.

After Ah Zhan sat on the ground for a while, he suddenly let out a 'huh', got up and ran to the place where the strange baby disappeared just now, and picked up something.

"What is this? Yuan Dan? He walked over and handed the things in his hand to Uncle Bao and asked.

It was an extremely transparent bead, dragging in the palm of Uncle Bao's hand, if it weren't for the refraction of sunlight that gave it a sense of contour, others wouldn't have seen anything in his palm at all. It is as pure as a drop of water in the water, and it blends in with the outside world. So it was just placed on the ground, and no one noticed.

Uncle Bao looked at the bead carefully, and sniffed it again, "There is a ghost and demon qi on it, it must have fallen from his body when refining the strange baby." But how can you see it? It's true that you were born with yin and yang eyes, but I didn't expect your innate ability to be so strong that you can even see hidden things. Remarkable! ”

"What the hell is this?" Bao Datong stuck his head over.

"Well--it stands to reason that it should be a ghost cultivator, but I don't understand why she, an ordinary ghost, would cultivate this, and be so clean, although she may have been dead for a long time. But I guess the strange baby dared to run out during the day because he got this treasure. Uncle Bao explained.

"But if you give Nedan to others, won't you die easily?" Bao Datong asked.

"So, the life experience of the female ghost and the strange baby must have something to do with it. Maybe, it's really mother and son. ”

"Do you want to see it?" Bao Datong asked again.

"Uncle, we still have friends trapped." Ah Zhan interjected, "If they don't die, please ask the uncle to save people to the end." ”

"Don't worry, what I promised you Lao Tzu will definitely do!" Bao Datong replied.

Ah Zhan ignored him and looked at Uncle Bao.

Uncle Bao nodded to him and slowly walked over to me.

He walked cautiously around the hole in the ground, as if judging the situation below, and after a while he said, "This hole is too small for us to enter, and the situation is not clear." ”

"Are you going to dig a ghost nest?" Bao Datong said a little excitedly. This makes me feel a little more bad for him, my friends are uncertain about their lives and deaths, and one of my hearts hangs all the time, I don't know what they are like, how Nana is, how can he show such a game attitude towards life?!

"There is a ghost, but it is miscellaneous and weak, I think you should go down and take a look first." Uncle Bao said.

I glanced at Bao Datong and saw that although he was a little thinner than me and Ah Zhan, he was also a young man of medium stature, and he couldn't get into this small hole anyway. Besides, it is clear that the following situation is unknown, how can Uncle Bao be willing to let his son go down to do the little white mouse for the experiment? !

"That's too dangerous, isn't it?" Ah Zhan spoke my heart.

"It doesn't matter." Uncle Bao smiled, took the so-called 'seven-colored sword' that Bao Datong held in his hand, which looked more like a rusty iron sword, and slashed it casually under my feet first, "Wanli, you can leave this circle." He said.

When I heard this, I subconsciously raised my feet and stepped out, but I saw that the red circle under my feet had completely disappeared, as if it had never existed at all, and my feet were numb due to standing here for a long time!

As soon as I left, Bao Datong sat there cross-legged!

"It's not that the place where your feet have stood is noble, it's that the direction here is just right." He explained with a hippie smile, and before I could refute him, he slowly closed his eyes, and like an old monk in meditation, he soon became as quiet as a stone, and seemed to have entered the realm of forgetting things and me. This can't help but make me admire him a little, I feel that although he is annoying, his physical and emotional state has changed so quickly, and he obviously has super high emotional intelligence.

Uncle Bao on the side saw that Bao Datong was ready, so he took out a piece of talisman paper from the big cloth pocket on his body, but this time he did not let the talisman burn, but pasted it on the top of Bao Datong's head. Then he took three steps back and gestured with his iron sword. Still like a strange dance, slowly waving his arms, turning, and paused—

He muttered something in his mouth, very softly, not as loud as he did with the strange baby, a little like babbling. However, this seemed a bit surprising to me, because although I knew that they were different from Ah Zhan's sect, I didn't think that much of a difference. Ah Zhan always draws talismans in the void, his movements are quite chic, and he is a little indifferent, while the Bao father and son have complex rituals and a bit of a funny feeling.

Uncle Bao continued to read, and the straight tone made me sleepy to listen to. But when I felt that my eyelids were a little fighting, he suddenly jumped up, raised his iron sword and stabbed Bao Datong in the chest!

This scene made me almost scream, but fortunately, Ah Zhan pulled me aside, and I saw that Uncle Bao's sword stopped when it reached his son's chest, but he shot too hard and too fast just now, I didn't expect him to be so good, and I thought he was possessed by something, and he was going to stage a scene of killing his son!

The tip of the iron sword stabbed lightly at the heart of Bao Datong, which would not hurt him, but it also pressed his muscles, allowing him to be closely connected to the sword through a thin layer of clothing.

Uncle Bao continued to chant, and although I still couldn't hear what he was chanting, I thought he had switched to another spell. After about a minute like this, the iron sword suddenly lit up, and it trembled incessantly, and made a 'buzzing' sound.

"Okay, go ahead, don't be playful, come back quickly!" Uncle Bao suddenly spoke into the sword, and his tone was kind and worried, and I was dumbfounded.

"Wait a minute." Ah Zhan saw Uncle Bao take out a ball of red rope and tie one end to the hilt of the sword, and was about to put the sword down from the hole that was no more than one foot in diameter, as if he understood Uncle Bao's actions, and hurriedly stopped it, and then fell to the ground without thinking, and threw the bloodwood sword in his hand down at once.

"Ah Zhan, what are you doing?" I was startled, but it was too late to stop me. You must know that the Bloodwood Sword is a relic left to him by his father, and he would never have left his body even if he died, so he didn't know why he threw it into this hole.

"Ah Zhan, you don't have to be like this, you must know that this is a strange treasure of the Dao Realm." Uncle Bao was stunned for a moment, as if he understood Ah Zhan's intentions, and said with relief.

"I'll get it back!" Ah Zhan said as he retreated to the same place, and stopped talking, watching Uncle Bao carefully put the sword down the hole, and after the sword body sank, he slowly relaxed the red rope in his hand.

At this time, his expression was solemn, as if the end of the rope was the most precious thing in his life, so that he unconsciously brought extreme concern to his facial expressions, and he had to listen attentively and feel carefully, until the last piece of the red rope in his hand was left in his hand, he stopped letting it go, and held it tightly!

"Bao Datong, he-" I turned my head to look at Ah Zhan and couldn't help but ask.

I have seen Bao Datong sitting there like a stone sculpture for half a day, and now it seems that he can't even breathe. Coupled with Uncle Bao's abnormal demeanor, he suddenly realized that Bao Datong might be out of his body, so he first attached himself to the sword, and then went down to check the situation. And this is the reason why Ah Zhan threw the Bloodwood Sword into the hole, he wanted to use the Bloodwood Sword's innate ability to exorcise evil spirits to open the way for Bao Datong!

Zhan nodded, and then his gaze fell on the entrance of the cave.

I saw that the red rope struggled twice, as if it was going forward. Uncle Bao approached the entrance of the cave and stretched the red rope as long as he could, but when his hand had reached the entrance of the cave, he never let go of it again, and stayed like that for a while before pulling it back twice.

"Come back!" He read it and began to regress. The red rope gradually softened as if it were an invisible man, coiling around the ground in a regular circle, and then the blade of the sword began to appear at the entrance of the cave.

Uncle Bao grabbed it in one step, reached out and took the sword, looked up and down a few times with a little nervousness, and then showed that relieved smile, aimed the tip of the sword at the chest of the 'human sculpture', and saw that the sword body was shining and trembling again, Bao Datong woke up leisurely.

"It's quite complicated." He only took a half breath and said, for fear that others would steal the words, and this person's love to talk can be seen.

"Oh, how complicated?" Seeing that Ah Zhan and I didn't get along, Uncle Bao had no choice but to cooperate with his son.

"There are three ghosts and a dozen evil living people down there!"

"Really?"

"Let's go right away!"

As soon as Bao Datong's second sentence came out, Ah Zhan and I answered almost at the same time.

Bao Datong looked at us proudly, as if to say, 'You don't like to talk to me'!

"Datong, don't sell Guanzi, talk quickly!" Uncle Bao urged, with some reproach in his tone, "It is appropriate for people in my generation to help the needy, how can you use it to be vindictive?" ”

Bao Datong stuck out his tongue and spoke slowly.

It turned out that under this stone ground, there was a small stone tomb, which almost extended to the bottom of the waterhole. However, the waterproof layer of this stone tomb is quite good, and it is located under the waterhole all year round, except for the dampness, there is no trace of water seepage.

There are three ghosts in the tomb, one is a female ghost in a fancy costume, but since Bao Datong went down, she just sat in a daze, and there was no reaction at all, the other seemed to be her funeral maid, and the other was a newly dead male ghost, a young man, it should be Zhao Jiang. Because Ah Zhan happened to throw the bloodwood sword at the mouth of the tomb, he shrunk them in the corner. They didn't dare to move, and they didn't seem to have any anger or resentment.

"You have to find a way to get in while it's dawn, otherwise how can you rescue your companions?" I anxiously asked, "How about digging through this hole?" ”

"It's all said, there's a big stone slab down here, and the waterproofing work is quite good, it's not easy to dig up, unless you use blasting, or you have the ability to rush out of the ground!"

"Just tell me what to do!" Ah Zhan was also in a hurry.

"When I was down there, I saw a robber cave, and it looked like a tomb robber had already patronized it. Just three hundred meters to the left of this exit, there must be a covered hole, and if we want to go, we can enter from there. ”

"Okay, let's go!" I turned around and was about to leave, but I was pulled back by Uncle Bao.

"Slow down, young man, don't be impulsive, you still have to do it beforehand. You're going to have to at least get some lighting, right? ”

When I heard that, I was right, and hurriedly dug out a few large flashlights with Ah Zhan among the things we discarded, feeling remorseful, thinking that if I could calm down a little last night and bring some equipment, maybe the situation would be better.

And Uncle Bao over there, when we were looking for something, took those small flags and recited a mantra, and then carefully spread them around the hole opening.

Bao Datong had a strong sense of direction, so we quickly found the entrance to the thief's hole, but the hole was so small that we could only crawl in, which made me suffer from broken wrist bones and ribs. I think Ah Zhan was also in great pain, because I could hear his heavy gasps.

When we tried our best to get in, we found that the tomb was very large, as if it had been built by a wealthy family, and that it was somewhat ventilated because it had been dug up a long time ago. In addition, the tomb is very clean, and there is no mess like the theft.

"I really don't understand why it is so strange to build it under a waterhole in the valley, this is a very unlucky place according to Feng Shui." Bao Datong can always ask the questions in my heart first, "The yin is heavy, and the water is yin, this yin is added to yin, or in this desperate valley, isn't this so that the people buried here will never be able to live beyond life?" Also, it doesn't make sense to say that it was done by relatives, and if it was done by enemies, why build such a good tomb? It's amazing! ”

"Just ask." Ah Zhan was a little impatient because he thought Bao Datong talked a lot, so he went to the second tomb first.

As soon as I entered, I almost shouted!

Through the bright light of the large flashlight, we saw a row of people sitting on the ground, dense, black at first glance, all in a posture and a look, staring in one direction without blinking, just like the kind of non-rotten dead people who accompany the funeral, and like a bunch of dolls, if the person who suddenly breaks in is more timid, he has to be scared to death.

"Nana!" I recognized at a glance that one of the girls in the middle was my sweetheart, Ah Zhan's girlfriend.

"Say, young people have to hold their breath." Uncle Bao stopped me again, "They are not in danger for the time being, let's go inside first." ”

Not allowing me to tell, I was dragged to the last chamber.

It's very big, but it's also very empty. Except for a large coffin in the middle, there are only three ghosts.

The bloodwood sword is at the door of this tomb, so there are two ghosts squatting in the corner facing the wall, one is a thin woman, in ancient costume, shrunk as if nothing, and the other is also thin, but looking at us with blank eyes, it is Zhao Jiang!

The third, dressed in a gorgeous red dress that never seems to fade, and her long hair covers her face!

"Is this yours?" Uncle Bao, who had been saying that he wanted to come slowly, suddenly took out the bead.

In the daytime, its shadow is nowhere to be seen, but in this dark burial chamber, it exudes a pearl-like brilliance!

The third ghost didn't speak.

Uncle Bao asked again and stepped forward.

This time, she moved, and then suddenly stood upright!

...
