Chapter 246: A Lifeless Village
I thought it was just an ordinary thing to deal with in the mountains, but I didn't think that it had something to do with Bai Miao.
Their sphere of influence is now getting wider and wider, and perhaps soon they will be able to find the seven Sacrificers.
Looks like I'm going to have to hurry up, and I'm going to have to get back to the north as soon as I'm done with this place.
As long as I can get those thirteen jade pendants, there will be a way to stop this from happening.
Looking at the corpse, I lost my mind.
"This body needs to be disposed of, but it will take time. We may not be able to make it back to the East Village before dark......"
Huineng looked at me, his eyes full of pleading.
I understand what he means, everyone's life and death need to be dealt with properly.
Don't say that I am Mr. Yin and Yang, this is even more true in Huineng's practice.
"It doesn't matter, I remember there's a small village down from here, and we just have to get out of the mountains before dark. Then let's take this corpse over first, and don't worry about other things. ”
With my words, Hui Neng was relieved and began to help the corpse recite the transcendent scriptures on the side.
The rain had stopped outside, so I found a shovel inside the cabin and shoveled a small mound outside.
After Huineng had finished reciting a lot of scriptures, I went into the house and took the body out.
"Your body has been purified, go all the way."
Although Huineng's words are ordinary, they are powerful.
After dealing with the matter here, we hurried down the mountain before it got dark.
There was no way back to the East Village, so we could only go to a small village next to the East Village.
As soon as I entered the small village, I sensed that something was wrong with this village.
The whole village seemed to be shrouded in black mist, and the atmosphere of filth was particularly strong.
Almost every house in the whole village was covered with strips of white cloth, and I couldn't tell what was going on for a while, but as I was walking into the village, someone saw a stranger entering the village, and immediately became vigilant.
"Who are you?"
The man's tone was vicious, and his face was unkind.
"We're going to the East Village, and we want to stay overnight here, I wonder if there is a vacant house to borrow?" I tried to relax my tone and talk to him.
But the man just raised an eyebrow and looked at me, and walked away without saying anything.
I froze where I was, at a loss.
Not long after, an old man with a cane and a group of people walked in our direction.
"We don't let outsiders stay overnight here, if you want to go to the East Village, you can go up the mountain and climb this small hill to arrive, and you can get there before dawn tomorrow." The old man on crutches said to me.
This eviction order was too sudden, but since others have said so, we don't have the face to stay.
Mountain, we are sure not to go up.
My mind was racing in the middle of nowhere, trying to find a way back to the East Village without going up the mountain.
At this moment, a woman's cry suddenly came from the village, and it was very loud.
"Help! O my son! ”
A few of us looked at each other, not knowing why.
But the villagers, who heard the shouting, turned around and ran in the direction from which the sound came.
The old man on crutches also followed slowly, but he sighed and turned back to us and said, "You go quickly, this village is not peaceful, don't be tainted with evil spirits." ”
With that, he left.
Not peaceful?
Contaminated with evil spirits?
None of this is a big deal for us.
But since we are asked to leave, we have to go.
Everything must be about fate.
We can't force someone to ask us to help with a doctor.
Thinking so, we can only turn away.
From here to the East Village, there is indeed a road.
It's just that it may take a day to walk.
If we had traveled overnight, we would have been able to reach the East Village tomorrow.
With that in mind, we decided to leave.
After walking for less than three minutes, there was the sound of eager footsteps behind him.
"Little Master, please stay."
We turned around to see that it was the man who had just been vicious.
He introduced himself and said that his surname was Sun, and the woman he was crying about just now was his daughter-in-law.
"My son is about to die, can the little master help take care of the aftermath. Our Sun family will give us a lot of money, and we will definitely not treat the little master badly. ”
Brother Sun's face was solemn, and it seemed that the kid was really about the same.
But it's strange to say, if the child has something, why don't you go to the doctor first, but find someone to help deal with the aftermath?
I can't figure this out.
Looking at Brother Sun, since he has something to help, it is fate.
A few of us followed Brother Sun back to the village, and when I walked into his house, I looked at the child on the straw mat and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Sun, why don't you ask the village doctor to come and take a look?"
Brother Sun shook his head with red eyes: "It's useless, the children in the village are all suffering from this strange disease, and the doctors have seen too much, and we also know that this is all a curse, and it can't be cured." ”
Strange disease?
I had a look of confusion in my eyes, what a strange illness and a curse, I had heard these words a lot, but it was not completely without a solution.
"Brother Xiaojie," Hui Neng, who was reciting scriptures next to the child, suddenly shouted, and I hurriedly stepped forward to take a look.
This child's God is not yet completely broken.
The so-called God is the three souls of man.
One of the souls, called Fetal Light, is the one who dominates life.
Of the child's three souls, two souls are gone, but the fetal light is flashing, and it is obvious that it is sending a signal for help.
I have to do it as soon as possible to lock up the child's soul.
As long as the soul is locked, maybe the child can be saved.
"Brother Sun, you can help me get some rice."
After instructing Brother Sun, I moved the child who had been placed in the big courtyard to the back room, and lit the lotus lamp for his life.
First lock the fetal light soul, and then I will find a way to find the other two souls.
Seeing that I started to do it, Brother Sun looked at me and was a little confused: "Little brother, who are you?" ”
"I'm Mr. Yin and Yang, and your child is sending a distress signal. I'll try to see if I can get it back, and if not, you'll probably have to be prepared. ”
My expression was serious, and Brother Sun nodded again and again.
"I was already prepared, if I could save it, it would be great, he is the only son of our Sun family, please trouble your little brother."
The situation was urgent, and I didn't want to listen to the compliments, so I just covered the child with a quilt, took rice from Brother Sun's hand, and sprinkled it on the child's body.
This practice was learned when I was reading yin and yang books before.
Legend has it that Jiang Ziya also used this method to lock the soul, and I hope my approach can bring the child back.
