027 Quirky
Although Yang Village is remote and has very few households, it is not exclusive to outsiders, and Cai Zhutou took a subordinate and Wang Shen and his party into the village, which did not cause any particularly big movements. There are no serious principals in this village, only an old man surnamed Yang who is over the age of old is an elder in the village, and he came forward to explain a few words to Cai Zhutou.
Cai Zhutou probably asked about the recent situation in the village, as well as whether there were any population changes, harvests in the fields, and daily trivial matters such as the situation in the mountains. Judging from what the old man surnamed Yang said, everything in this village has been the same as usual recently, and it is relatively peaceful, but some time ago, an old woman in the village passed away and invited an immortal official to collect her soul.
Speaking of this, Cai Zhutou deliberately asked if everything was going properly, the old man nodded again and again, and expressed his gratitude and respect to the immortal official who came tirelessly, and he didn't seem to know that the three immortal officials in the soul attraction pavilion closest to them had been here, and all of them were missing.
The three of them remained silent, and after Cai Zhutou asked some parents for a short time, he wanted to walk around the village so that he could record the situation and report it to the county political secretary.
The old man didn't say a word and took the initiative to lead the three county masters to walk from house to house, this Yang Village is very small, standing at the entrance of the village can see the whole picture at a glance, this circle is just a cup of tea, and when he returned to the village, Cai Zhutou left Yang Village on the grounds of official business.
Back at the resting place where everyone was stationed, Dao Liang and Dao Zheng came forward to ask Wang Shen, but Wang Shen shook his head and said, "Everything is normal in this village, nothing is abnormal. ”
Dao Zheng glared and said, "Isn't it, Lao Wang, you have opened your yin and yang eyes and still can't see the situation inside?"
As soon as he heard the words yin and yang eyes, Dao Liang's complexion changed suddenly, and even Gan Meng, who looked like he didn't care about himself not far away, opened his mouth slightly, and looked at Wang Shen with a little suspicion in his eyes.
"No, nothing was found. ”
Wang Shen still said this, but he still felt that there was something strange in this village, but he couldn't find the slightest basis for the specific strangeness.
Dao Liang calmed down slightly, and began to ponder without saying a word.
Cai Zhutou on the side saw that everyone didn't speak, so he proposed again: "Why don't we wait for the night to go in and explore?" I went to the village just now, and there are only dozens of ordinary villagers, and so many of us can cope with it even if something really happens. ”
Dao Liang nodded and said, "Well, that's the only way." ”
However, he was not idle in this daytime, but took Gan Meng around the periphery of Yang Village, and when he came back, Wang Shen found that the Xuanhuang flag he had originally inserted on his waist was gone, and Wang Shen and the others were a little bored, except for a few who were responsible for guarding and monitoring Yang Village's every move, the rest of the people could only sit and wait until dark.
During the day, there was nothing unusual in Yang Village, and the whole mountain forest was filled with all kinds of insect and bird calls, and as the sun sank in the west, the villagers who worked returned to their respective houses again.
The curling smoke from the village seemed to announce the end of the day, and when the last smoke was blown away by the mountain wind, a thick layer of night was pulled from the depths of the mountain behind the village, and then rose to the top of the mountain, and soon covered the entire sky.
At this time, Dao Liang, Wang Shen and the others had all lurked behind a hillside very close to the entrance of the village, and as night fell, the entire village, including the nearby mountains and forests, instantly quieted down.
There were no voices, no birds, no insects, and the chickens and dogs that had been wandering around the village during the day to forage for food seemed to have died suddenly, and there was no movement.
Dao Liang's brows were locked deeper, and a little surprise appeared on the front of Dao, Gan Meng's squatting body also tightened, but Wang Shen closed his eyes.
When Wang Shen opened his eyes again, he finally understood the strangeness of this Yang Village.
"There are dozens of ghosts coming from the mountains and occupying all the living creatures here. ”
The words that floated out of Wang Shen's mouth shocked everyone, and Cai Zhutou and the others were even more frightened, and they were trembling and even the hand holding the handle of the knife was trembling.
They originally thought that they were just facing a group of unarmed ordinary villagers, who would have thought that these villagers would become ghosts at night, no wonder the three lamplighters disappeared here, not that there were any evil ghosts hidden in the village, but that the entire village had become evil ghosts at night!
"Tricky?"
Even Daozheng was a little drumming in his heart, but he still believed in Wang Shen's judgment.
Wang Shen didn't shake his head or nod, just looked at the deeper mountain forest behind the village, and said with a worried face: "The village should be able to deal with it, but I'm afraid of alarming the ...... in it I can't see the situation there. ”
After listening to Wang Shen's words, Dao Liang finally put away his previous contempt for him, and said with a solemn face: "It seems that if you want to find out the reason, you have to subdue all the ghosts in this village unknowingly." ”
"Well, look at it like this, the ghosts in this mountain should come out at night to occupy the bodies of the villagers, but I have seen it during the day, these villagers are in sound spirits, and their minds have not been affected in any way, I don't know what the purpose of these ghosts that come out of the day and night, since they don't suck people's souls, what is the use of them occupying the body?"
Wang Shen's question once again caused a group of people to fall into a dead silence.
But soon, his question was answered, because unlike last night, the villagers of Yang Village, whose bodies were occupied by ghosts, did not stay in their rooms as quietly as they did last night.
Because there are no dark clouds in the sky tonight, a bright moon hangs high in the sky, and countless stars dot this deep night.
All the villagers of Yang Village came to the open space in the village one after another, including the chickens and dogs raised in captivity, and they all looked up at the bright moon above their heads, closed their eyes, and their mouths flickered and closed, as if they were swallowing and absorbing something.
Seeing this scene, Cai Zhutou's eyes straightened, and Dao Zheng was surprised: "These ghosts in the mountains have really become essences, and they actually think of using human bodies to absorb the aura of heaven and earth." ”
Wang Shen sighed secretly in his heart when he saw this scene, with his mental power, he was able to detect that although these ghosts were acting strangely, their strength was not strong, but even such ghosts knew that they could use the human body to absorb the aura of heaven and earth to cultivate, but he had an empty shell and could not find a cultivation method......
Hey, people are more angry than ghosts......
Dao Liang had an idea in his heart after looking at it for a while, although he was also a little confused by the strangeness of this Yang Village at first, but now he saw that after he understood, he had already laid out a formation around this village, as long as he made a move, the entire village's heaven and earth qi would be locked by his formation, and to deal with the dozens of ghosts and ghosts in it who were mediocre, Gan Meng alone was enough.
"Senior brother, when I do it, you can go in and clean them up, remember to shake them all over, don't let them take the opportunity to eat away at the souls of the villagers. ”
"Hey, hey. ”
Gan Meng grinned, and his huge body stood up from behind the hillside, and the huge figure was like another moving hill, walking slowly towards Yang Village.
