Master handed me a quaint lantern, and there was nothing in it.

My eyes widened and I said, Master, you're not joking, are you?

"Of course it's not a joke, the ghost fire is put into the lantern, and it can be used for three years at a time, which is much better than a flashlight." Master threw the lantern to me.

I had no choice but to do what Master asked.

That night, I used the talisman seal to force the ghost fire in one place, and then turned on the lantern, and burned a soul charm in the lantern, and the ghost fire naturally came in.

According to the explanation of the "Qing Wei Shu Zhi", the ghost fire is the karma of a person after death, and it will contain the essence and spirit of some deceased people, except for scaring people, it has no substantive effect.

There are a lot of ghost fires in the back mountain, but I installed a horse lantern all night and there was only a trace of fire.

It wasn't until I installed it for seven days in a row that the ghost fire in the back mountain turned around and ran wildly when it saw me, and the horse lantern could be regarded as a little light.

The lantern filled with ghost fire has no temperature, and it is a light blue flame, which looks quite beautiful.

The next day, I put the lantern in front of the master, and the master took a look at it and said that this is about the same, it seems that your kid is really a natural cultivator.

"Master, can we go down the mountain now?"

The Master handed me the wooden sword he had sharpened that day and said, "Take this one, this is lightning strike wood, and I also have a sword head with a killing blade embedded on the top, which is a good magic weapon to use against evil spirits." ”

I do know that lightning strike wood is the best magic weapon material, and the killing blade is the best thing to deal with evil spirits, because weapons with murderous aura are the best to repel evil spirits.

Even the pig-killing knife is much more powerful than the peachwood sword, let alone the sword that has killed people.

"Thank you, Master, I think it's okay to go down the mountain now?" I took the short sword, which was only three inches long, and the blade felt faintly hot to the touch, as if it had just been taken out of the furnace.

The master nodded and said, "You go first, remember, the first thing you need to do when you go back to the village is to go to see Liu Qian'er's cemetery first, to see if the grass is not growing and the trees are not growing." ”

"Won't Master come with me?" I was stunned for a moment.

Master shook his head and said, "I can't leave people until the Taoist temple is absolutely necessary, I can't always trouble the Dharma Protector General, I will come to you the day after tomorrow at the latest, you have to remember, don't be reckless in case of trouble, if someone wants to tell you a fortune, you must not agree." ”

I said I remembered.

Before leaving, I kowtowed to Master three times, and Master smiled: "It's not life and death, it's not a parting, it's something to do." ”

I had a sour nose and said, "If it weren't for Master, I wouldn't be alive now, and Master is my reborn parent." ”

Master waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." ”

I turned around and left the Taoist temple, thinking that I would practice at the Baiyun Temple for two and a half years, but now I will go down the mountain in three months.

I am now walking on the road of Baiyunguan as if walking on the ground, even if I reach the entrance of the village, it will take less than an hour.

Ligou Village is still the same as when I left, but now it is a cold winter, and it is still drizzling in the sky, the village is depressed, the old camphor trees by the river are still flourishing, and the Wacan River has entered a dry period, and many places have exposed silt.

The old locust tree at the entrance of the village has become bald.

I stepped into the village, and without even returning home, I walked straight to the edge of the mountain forest not far from my home.

That's where Master and I buried Liu Qian'er.

I remember very well that Liu Qian'er was buried in the seal of two woods, which happened to be a clearing in the bushes.

According to the master, Liu Qian'er is very angry, and there will be no things around the tomb, so it should be easy to find.

However, when I went, I found that the clearing was already overgrown with weeds, and I couldn't tell where Liu Qian'er's grave was.

I secretly wondered, could it be that the master had miscalculated?

I took out my compass to look at the directions, but I noticed that the compass hands were jumping around, and I couldn't see anything.

Since I couldn't see it here, I immediately went home.

When I left, I didn't lock the door because Master said that Mother would wake up on her own, and now I stand in front of the house and find that the door is closed.

I took out my phone and dialed my dad's number, but no one answered, I was a little nervous, my dad couldn't have done something, right?

Just as I was thinking about it, my dad actually called me back.

"Gu Zhou? We are at your fourth uncle's house. ”

Hanging up the phone, I hurried to the fourth uncle's house.

The fourth uncle is a capable person in Ligou Village, and he is one of the few people who can build a two-story house.

The door of the fourth uncle's house was open, and I walked straight in.

He also shouted loudly: "Mom and Dad, I'm back." ”

No one answered me, I walked in the door to look, only to find three big red coffins in the fourth uncle's hall.

As soon as I saw this situation, I immediately felt bad, not to mention the red coffin, but also to say that the three coffins that appeared inexplicably were also unlucky.

I was about to retreat, but the door slammed shut.

Two people staggered out of the inner room, both dressed in black, and even their heads were covered with black cloth.

Their movements are mechanical and weird, their limbs are not coordinated at all, and they are not normal people at first glance.

I looked at them nervously and exclaimed, "Who are you?" What about my parents and fourth uncle? ”

The two men didn't answer, but the two of them opened the three coffins one after another, and I immediately smelled a strong and pungent smell of rotting corpses.

The two men made a gesture of invitation and asked me to come and see.

When I took a closer look, my head was bloodshot and my eyes were cracking, and there were three members of the fourth uncle's family lying in the coffin.

And it was evident that they had been dead for many days, and the bodies of the fourth uncle and aunt were already crawling with maggots, while their fifteen-year-old son's eyes were wide open, and a fat white maggot crawled out of his eye socket.

I'm not even afraid of ghosts now, but when I saw the tragic situation of the fourth uncle's family of three, I couldn't help but tremble.

The fourth uncle had a crack in his neck, which was obviously broken.

I roared, "You brutes, who are you!" ”。
