Chapter 164: Summoning Souls

The arrangement of the front line?

It seems that the big row leader had already guessed that he would be more and less auspicious back then, and the ghosts and gods in Anping Village were not simply haunted, so he specially arranged for Lao Guo Tou to record the methods of exorcising evil spirits from all walks of life.

I slowly flipped through my notes: "There were at least three people who stuck to their employers back then?" ”

"Yes." Lao Guo Tou shook his head and sighed: "Those immortal masters looked at the people in the village inch by inch, and they were still full of evil spirit-repelling things, and one person simply tattooed the idol on the villagers. But then, they all died. ”

I asked, "What about the warlocks?" People die and then leave? ”

"Dead." Lao Guo Tou said: "After the people they watched died, they didn't survive, and their bodies were not taken away, they were all thrown in the house. ”

I nodded and flipped through the notes a few more times: "There is a record here that someone thinks that the ghosts and gods in the water temple are killing people?" Also wrong? ”

"I said he wasn't right at the beginning!" Lao Guo Tou said fiercely: "The Water Temple has blessed the village for so many years, how can it turn around and harm the people in the village?" He had to go to the water temple to find clues, and he died in the temple. ”

I suddenly became interested: "How did you die?" ”

"Haned." Old Guo Tou pointed to the sky: "It is hanging on the beam of the Water Temple." The man must have angered the god of water and had his soul taken. ”

I didn't say a word, and turned the pages one by one. The notes are varied: some people went upstream along the river to find the source; Some people spent nearly half a year to investigate the grievances and grievances in Anping Village; Some people simply ran to the ancestral tomb in Anping Village and looked at the feng shui around it...... In short, as a warlock, they thought of all of them, but unfortunately, without exception, they all left their lives in Anping Village.

The strangest thing is that the last place where the warlocks died is the same place they verified. Those who go up the mountain never return; Those who go down to the river float on the surface of the water; The grave keeper died violently in the cemetery......

It seems that every place in Anping Village is strange, and every clue is plausible......

Ye Sen, who was standing beside me, couldn't help but scratch his head and said, "How can I check this?" ”

"Check them one by one! I don't believe I can't find the slightest clue. I got up and said, "Let's prepare during the day and start at night." ”

After returning to Mu Dong's house, I called Du Miao over, and several people sat together and analyzed for a long time, before Ye Sen said: "I think that the water temple and the cemetery are the most likely places to get clues. Let's start with these two places. ”

"Then divide the troops." I arranged: "Tonight, Tan Yue will go to the cemetery, Ye Sen will go to the Water Temple, and Du Miao will look after the family." In any case, stick to it for one night, don't rush into anything no matter what happens, and getting clues is the most important thing. ”

Tan Yue raised his head and said, "What about you?" ”

I pointed to a big elm tree in the center of the village and said, "I'll go up there and take the center of the matter." ”

Tan Yue said disbelievingly: "Are you sure? ”

"When did I lie to you!" I was talking to Tan Yue seriously on the surface, but in fact I was really lying to him.

I split the two of them apart because I wanted to summon souls.

Summoning the soul is a secret technique passed on to me by the old walnut, and few people know about it. However, Tan Yue is well-informed, and he may be able to see some flaws. He wasn't allowed to follow because it was too dangerous to summon souls.

This spell sounds like it is summoning a ghost, but in fact, it is the ghost of a warlock. Warlocks walked in the Yin and Yang worlds during their lifetimes, and they may not enter the underworld after they die. Once the soul becomes a wandering ghost, they are the most likely to become evil beings. Summoning them out is actually not much different from summoning demons and gods.

The price a warlock has to pay to summon ghosts and gods is often unaffordable; Summoning Souls is a little better, but it's also extremely dangerous. If you can't meet the request made by the soul, it will be difficult to send him away again, and you may have to break your wrists. At that time, it was difficult to say who won and who lost.

After nightfall, I was the last to leave Mudong's house and crept under the big elm tree in the middle of the village.

There was a bronze bell hanging from the tree, and the surrounding area was full of clearing, and there was a three-way intersection ahead. This is supposed to be the place where the village chief gathers the villagers to discuss important matters. The three-way intersection in front of it is just right for ghosts, and in the eyes of warlocks, it is an excellent place to summon spirits.

I sat down with my back against the trunk of the tree, took out a thumb-thick piece of yellow incense from my backpack, and hesitated in my hand.

Sometimes, people have a premonition, and I once had a premonition that one day I would take the risk of summoning a soul. When I was fighting with Kaneno, I quietly picked up one of Kaneno's fingers that had not been burned clean, crushed his phalanges into powder, and made this piece of yellow incense in my hand with my own blood.

Old Walnut taught me that this special conjuring incense must be made with the bones of a warlock. As for which section to use, there is also a particular one, and the use of finger bones is the lowest level of spiritualist incense. Because there are three phalanges, three magic souls will definitely be summoned. I had to choose one of them and trade with them.

As for who is chosen and what the consequences will be after being chosen, then it can only be left to fate.

The Gao family father and son are not my employers, and I have not established any contract with them, it is righteous to help them, and it is reasonable not to help. Is it worth it for me to use a spell like summoning souls and gambling with my life for an unknown outcome? I must be crazy! Must be crazy......

After saying three times in my heart that I was crazy, I took a deep breath, gathered up a pile of floating earth on the ground, planted yellow incense on it, lit it with fire, put a spirit talisman on top of my head, and leaned back against the tree.

There are three dangers in summoning souls!

First, there must be a place to lean on. The soul doesn't necessarily come out of nowhere, I don't know, he just comes out from behind, and before I can speak, he will give me a hard time.

Second, we must guard the heavenly spirits. If I don't get the soul possessed and eat my own soul, I will soon become a walking corpse, manipulated by the soul to do evil, until the corpse is rotten to the point where there is nothing left. Of course, my own soul will be destroyed as a result.

Third, it is to gamble on luck. The three souls are strong and weak, loyal and treacherous. If you choose the weak, of course the strong will not agree, and a big war is inevitable. If the strong wins, the conditions will be raised immediately. Whether it can be completed or not, no one can say. The worst thing is that the magic soul I choose may not be reliable, and if I encounter a thing full of nonsense, I may be able to pit myself to death......

Seeing the green smoke rising in front of me, I knew that I had no more choice, so I simply sat down calmly. After a while, an indescribable feeling of powerlessness spread throughout my body, and I felt like someone who hadn't eaten for a few days, leaning limply against a tree, my head in a trance, as if I was floating in the sky, and although my body had not moved, I felt like I was swaying back and forth.

Before summoning the soul of the magic, the smell from the yellow incense will make the warlock enter a state of powerlessness to resist, just like being hit by the "Ten Fragrance Soft Tendons" in a martial arts novel, although the consciousness is clear, but there is no way to do anything with people.

This is the warlock's way of expressing his sincerity to the soul, which is equivalent to making it clear to the other party: I didn't mean to take you. Only in this way will the soul come out and trade with you with peace of mind. Once the soul finds out that the warlock is cheating, it will never show up, and even the warlock will not want to cast the same spell in the same place.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly I heard footsteps in the distance. When I opened my eyes, an old man with his hands behind his back turned out from behind the house in the distance. The other party didn't even look at me, but walked in front of me step by step with his head held high and pacing.

When he turned back and walked back again, I noticed that with every step he took, a puff of dust would kick up under his feet - the green bricks laid on the ground were broken by him, and the broken bricks like smoke and dust were splashed around the soles of his feet, floating back and forth around his calves, looking like he was stepping on a layer of green clouds swimming on the road.

The old man walked up to me and sat down, took out a dry tobacco from his body, and took two puffs of his own cigarette before bringing the cigarette holder to my mouth.
