Chapter 40: Nightfall
In a sense, the recovery of the ghost king is actually because of this girl called Xiao Xiao, who looks seven or eight points like me.
I was a little hard at the end of the day.
The relationship between Xiao Xiao and the Ghost King should already be very clear, but why did she possess me on the day of my wedding to Wang Yuyin? What is the relationship between her and me?
I'm not sure if this ghost king is an old man, and I vaguely feel in my heart that this time I came to Sukou Mountain, wanting to find Wang Yu's corpse and remove the things on the corpse, it seems that it is not as simple as I imagined.
When Zhang Xin came back, he didn't catch game, but only picked some mountain fruits, which was barely enough for a few of us to fill our stomachs.
"Xiaorou, it's getting late, have you found what you're looking for? If we find it, let's get out of here before it's dark, I always feel that if we don't leave, something bad will happen! ”
"I don't know if it's found."
I told Zhang Xin about the diary, and the thing called the "Soul Suppression Tablet" in the memories of the female ghost.
After Zhang Xin listened, he looked at the stone tablet, and after a long time, he said, "This stone tablet makes the ghost king helpless against you, it should be a good thing, take it first, and then we may be able to use it." ”
I was a little puzzled, "Didn't that old Taoist priest say that I should throw it away?" ”
Zhang Xin stared at me and left me a sentence, "In any case, a stranger's words can be believed, but not all of them, in this world, there is only one person who can fully believe, and that is yourself." ”
The atmosphere was already very depressing, and seeing that he was so serious, I deliberately wanted to jokingly liven up the atmosphere: Then I can't believe you and Xue'er?
Zhang Xin really nodded and said: Yes!
His serious appearance made me laugh a little, "What nonsense are you talking about here, I believe that you and Xue'er will never harm me."
Zhang Xin was a little reluctant, "What if something like that really happens one day?" ”
I thought about it for a moment, and then said, "Then I really wouldn't dare to trust anyone anymore, but it can't happen!" ”
Zhang Xin was stunned for a moment when he heard my answer, and after a long time, he sighed, "Xiaorou, I don't know if I should say that you are stupid, your character will suffer!" ”
I smiled and didn't speak, and picked up the stele.
The stele was very thin, only the size of my palm, I asked Zhang Xin, and found that the ghost of the female ghost on it was still only I could see.
After reading her diary, I don't have so much fear of her anymore.
I didn't know where to put it, but I suddenly felt the beanie in my stomach seem to move twice, and an indescribable joy emanated from her.
Doudou seems to like this stone tablet very much?
Doudou has fallen into a deep sleep since he devoured that ghost, and he hasn't woken up until now, so I don't know how long it will take.
After a moment's hesitation, I put it in the pocket of my underwear, clinging to my abdomen, Doudou likes it so much, maybe it can be put there to make Doudou wake up sooner.
I just don't know how long it will be next time I see Doudou, and what kind of growth she can have.
After everything was cleaned up, we walked out of this house called Xiao Xiao, went into the village, and the harvest was not bad, snatched Xiao Xiao's soul from the hands of the ghost king, and knew a lot about this ghost king.
Although I don't know what these are for.
After we came out, the sky suddenly turned dark, and as we walked through the village, there was still silence all around, and only the footsteps of the three of us could be heard, and the sound of heartbeats.
Walking towards the entrance of the village step by step, I don't know how many steps, and suddenly there was a sound of "brushing", and the lights of the first house in the village were lit.
Before we could react, the second, the third......
In just a few seconds, almost all the houses in the village were lit up, and the village, which was originally dark, became brightly lit in an instant.
In the village room, there are constantly figures flickering in the room.
This......
I turned my head and saw Li Xue also looking at me with a frightened expression.
Zhang Xin's anxious voice came, "Hurry up, during the day, these things can't appear, and now at night, they come out!" ”
After he finished speaking, I felt that Li Xue and I were both grabbed and ran towards the entrance of the village.
I had never felt like I was running so fast because of fear, and as we ran, the night wind suddenly became stronger, blowing the trees around us, and the whole village was plunged into an indescribable gloom.
After running for about a minute, Zhang Xin in front of him suddenly stopped.
"Why did it stop!" After I asked this sentence, I saw that every household in the village had villagers, and they slowly walked out of the house.
These people, old and young, and a few children, all looked pale and bloodless, and their eyes were all looking straight at us, and their faces were sneering, and they were indescribably cautious.
In front, I don't know when, there are already quite a few standings.
I turned my head to look around, and saw that there were still people from the village, coming out of the house, approaching us, and gathering together.
I felt my whole body tremble.
What do they want to do......
Li Xue was also frightened when she saw so many dirty things, and she stumbled and asked, "Zhang, Zhang Xin, are these ghosts......
Zhang Xin glanced back at Li Xue and did not answer, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence.
In the short time we have been standing, these "people" have surrounded us closer and closer, and I can clearly see the dark blood vessels under their pale complexion.
"Plop, plop." My heart was beating faster and faster, and I had to look at Zhang Xin for help.
"We ......, what should we do now?"
Zhang Xin's face was also solemn, the peach wood sword that had been carrying his back before had been tightly held in his hand, and those villagers saw that this peach wood sword seemed to have a real effect, and the speed of gathering around us slowed down a little.
But as more and more villagers entered the house, they still walked towards us unhurriedly, and it was only a matter of time before they completely surrounded us.
At that point, if they swarmed up, I have no doubt that if we didn't hold on for a second, we would die without a single bone left.
Zhang Xin obviously knew this, and looking at the situation in front of him, he gritted his teeth and said to the two of us, "I'm in front, you two closed your eyes and rushed over with me!" ”
After he finished speaking, he pulled Li Xue up, and Li Xue pulled me and rushed towards the thinnest direction of the villagers.
Seeing the villagers getting closer and closer to me, I closed my eyes in fear.
"Roar...... Ah......h
The screams that didn't look like human voices kept coming from my ears.
I didn't dare to open my eyes, I only felt my body constantly running forward, and around me, the occasional touch to the body of the villagers was quickly left behind by me.
I don't know how long I was dragged and ran, and then I heard Zhang Xin's somewhat panting voice in my ears, "Okay, we're coming out of the village." ”
I slowly opened my eyes and saw Zhang Xin sweating profusely, and he was already tired and sat down on the ground, obviously expending a lot of physical strength.
Li Xue also looked like she was in prostration, panting heavily, "We, is this safe?" ”
Zhang Xin raised his head, "Out of the village, it should be regarded as a safe ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, I suddenly noticed that his pupils were getting bigger and bigger, with some incredible horror in them.
A bad breath welled up in my heart, and I slowly turned around to see more villagers behind me than before, appearing in our eyes.
Looking at the dense crowd, my scalp felt like it had exploded.
"How could there be so many, how could they chase them out of the village!"
These villagers were getting closer and closer to us, and suddenly, among these villagers, I saw several familiar faces: the widow of the Wang family, and the uncle and aunt who were at the bottom of the mountain before, selling us incense and candles, and helping us find black dog blood.
These villagers now are not from Yangqu Village at all!
But aren't they all alive? How could you come here!
