Chapter 41: The Night Tree Hangs the Corpse

The wind was bleak, and the night wind was so cold and biting.

But I can't ignore Zhao Ertian's corpse.

Gritting my teeth, I kicked out of the broken house.

The streets were crowded with people and the wind was gusting.

All around me, there was a breath of death that seemed to surround me.

The goosebumps all over my body seemed to scream at me to stop going.

I stubbornly continued on my way.

But I really can't take a step forward.

In the middle of the night, I have a dharma instrument.

But do I have the power to parry those monsters?

My answer is no.

Thinking of this, I decisively calmed down, and then walked back to the room quickly.

I put a talisman seal on the whole house, and closed the old wooden door again.

I let out a long sigh of relief.

A night of fear, a night of sleeplessness, this bell also rang all night.

When the morning light breaks through the darkness, I am like a spring that has been suppressed for a long time.

suddenly rushed to the door, and then ran non-stop towards the place where Zhao Ertian's body was hidden.

The bell kept ringing along the way.

But this Huaiyi village is occupied at night, but it is empty during the day.

No one touched the body, how could this bell ring?

I was so anxious that I could only keep speeding up.

The place where the body was hidden was not far in front of me, and I burst into a 100-meter sprint.

Looking at the scene in front of me, although I had prepared for a long time, I couldn't help frowning.

Zhao Ertian's body is gone.

This corpse has been stolen for the second time, and he can't stand it.

Looking at everything around me, I couldn't find any clues.

In the whole village, except for me, there were only three fat people.

It was obvious that they couldn't have stolen my body, they didn't have time to hide.

Who stole the body?

Just then, another person came to my mind.

The fellow who used the Soul Destroying Talisman.

Soul Slayer Talisman? Since this person can use talismans, it is very likely that he was the one who drove the mountain spirits to attack us in the first place.

I looked left and right again, and there was no sign of a fight, not even a trail of dragging.

Looking out again, the sun was already shining.

This abundant yang qi directly dispersed the yin qi released by Zhao Ertian's corpse.

Even if I wanted to find the corpse at the altar, I couldn't find even the slightest bit of yin qi.

A thought that made people hairy all over came to mind.

When the yin qi gathers at night, look for it again.

At night, the degree of risk increases exponentially.

But is there a better way? The answer is no!

Feeling uneasy, he returned to the dilapidated house in the village.

There is sunlight outside the house, and there are sigils in the house.

Maybe it's both that give me a sense of security.

Sleepiness hit me at this moment, and I closed my eyes after thinking about closing it for a while.

I don't know how long it was, but the noise woke me up from my sleep.

The stupor lasted less than half a second, and I stood up abruptly.

I slept from dawn to dark.

After slapping myself in the face a few times, I left the dilapidated house, bypassed the villagers, and rushed to the place where the bodies were hidden.

The wind was gusting around, and I took out a pillar of green incense from my bag to sacrifice to the gods of heaven and earth.

Then twist it with one hand and draw the talisman with the other.

The seal burst into flames, and in the blink of an eye, it burned into a cloud of ashes.

The smoke scattered and then poured towards the ashes in front of me.

As if given to the soul, the green smoke swirled around the ashes and floated.

Like a firefly guiding the way, it began to guide the way.

My eyes were fixed on the ashes in the air.

Holding a corpse whip in one hand, and holding the corpse bell tightly in the other.

As long as Zhao Ertian moves, the bell will ring immediately.

I was able to react immediately and not be suddenly attacked.

Following the ashes, I returned to the village again.

While I was surprised, the direction in which the ashes were heading also felt familiar to me.

This place seems to have been detoured before, unlike other places in the village that I have been, and this road unexpectedly felt familiar to me.

It's like I've been there more than once or twice.

What makes me even more strange is that there are not a single villager on this road.

The place where those people and ghosts gathered didn't seem to be here.

That's fine, lest I need to deliberately avoid them.

As I continued to walk towards the village, the more I felt a chill in my back.

The ashes that led the way glowed with a faint blue light.

It's like a ghostly fire dancing in the air.

I can understand what it means.

This means that the surrounding yin qi has reached a certain level.

Suddenly, the ashes burned into a flame of orchids.

It constantly twisted and crackled, as if it was screaming, and it seemed like it was howling.

What's going on?

While I was amazed, all the ashes burned out.

I was stunned, is this already in place, or what's going on?

I slowly raised my head, and on the white paper on the door, the huge mourning word came into view.

Is this back to the village chief's house?

Could it be that Zhao Ertian's body has now entered the village chief's house?

My head buzzed, and it went blank.

What should I do now?

At this point, I even kind of hope that the fat people are by my side, and that it will be good.

I'm not going to be tingling and chilling like I am now.

Look at the mourning words on the door, look at the cold atmosphere around you.

I let out a long exhale, if I don't go in, I'm afraid it won't work.

Gritting my teeth, I took a bold step.

But I remembered the scene from last night again.

The monster that kept chasing us, the twisted face, the eyes that were scarlet like the abyss.

Will I be torn to pieces by him like a snack, and then savor it little by little.

Yesterday the four of us were driven to a dead end.

If it hadn't been for the sudden dawn, we might have been swallowed into the monster's belly.

But is there still such good luck today?

I'm alone now, can I escape?

But they have already found this place, if I don't go in, will I watch Zhao Ertian's body disappear in vain?

If that's the case, then what's the point of me staying?

Thinking of this, I no longer have the slightest hesitation.

He raised his hand and put it on the huge mourning word in the doorway.

Push hard.

A "creaky ......" appeared with a sound, and the door slowly opened.

The courtyard was pitch black, but fortunately something could be seen in the moonlight.

My eyes looked at the old locust tree, and under the old locust tree was the bronze coffin.

But on the old locust tree, it attracted my attention.

It was like a rag hanging from the tree, swaying gently from side to side with the wind.

I looked closely, and my eyes widened suddenly.

What kind of rag was there, and what was swaying in the wind was a stiff corpse.
