Chapter 103: Soul Magic

"Hans Christian Andersen?" The old man is really a fan of Andersen, and even his name is the same, but Andersen's fans have long been all over the world, and even he is one of them, but why does this old man live in the cemetery, is it for the pursuit of art. "Come with me, child, and I'll take you to where I live. Andersen walked to one of the larger graves, brushed away the weeds, and revealed a huge cave, where Andersen lived in the cemetery? Looking at the dark cave Yang Bing was a little dumbfounded.

"What does that monster woman have to do with you?" Yang Bing asked as he walked as he walked into the crypt with Andersen

"They are my servants, who sleep in the crypts during the day, sometimes go outside and bring me some food or necessities, and in the middle of the night they like to sing about lost or curious humans, and then drain their blood, eat their flesh, and then we will dig a random pit for their bones and bury them. ”

"People continue to disappear in the cemetery, so the forces of the Holy See of Light have not noticed the anomaly and have not sent magicians to clear you?"

"We're doing things very mysterious, it's either some drunks or some who come here in the middle of the night, and no one will notice if they disappear, okay kid, we're here, this is my room, do you like it?"

Andersen's room might be more appropriately called a crypt, with wet walls still seeping water in places, a large crypt filled with all sorts of taxidermy soaked formalin, and the floor of the room littered with broken bones, like a morgue.

Hans Christian Andersen picked up a notebook from the table and threw it to Yang Bing: "You take a look at my notes first, if you don't understand anything, you can ask me, this ape is the result of my research for many years, and every word and sentence is hard-won." ”

Yang Bing opened the old notebook, Andersen's notes were in English, and there was basically no problem in understanding Yang Bing's current English level.

the,soul,magic,soul magic?The first line of the notebook reads, these four words aroused Yang Bing's interest, he looked under the dense font below, and he was surprised when he read the first page.

Soul magic is actually a type of dark magic, any kind of creature has its own soul, even a grass and a tree are no exception, but the soul of a plant is very small, the small one is negligible, and the soul in soul magic is usually used to describe animals.

Soul magic has branches all over the world, especially one of the words that made Yang Bing speed up his breathing, Xiangxi corpse chasing is also a soul magic, and it is a very low-level one, the caster usually uses guò an ancient spell to imprison the soul of the deceased on the corpse that has lost signs of life, so that it can do some simple actions, such as walking and jumping, saying that chasing corpses is low-level soul magic because the corpse can only do a few simple actions, but it has no autonomous consciousness ability.

The highest level of soul magic can not only bring the dead back to life, but also have the ability to act but also have the ability to read and think, except for the absolute obedience to the caster in the mind, the rest is no different from the dead before their death, in Chinese terms, it is to borrow the corpse to resurrect the soul.

In addition, there is a kind of spiritualism in China, as well as the spiritism of the book and the lowering of the head in Thailand, all of which belong to the high-level soul magic, the above spells are to retrieve the soul of the deceased, in fact, the soul produced after the death of the creature is not like the legend of reincarnation in the underworld, with the death, the soul will quickly dissipate after separation, and there is no so-called six reincarnation.

I didn't expect to be able to see something related to Xiangxi's hometown here, Yang Bing sighed and a sense of homesickness arose, no matter how many painful memories his hometown left him, nostalgia is an emotion implanted in the depths of his soul, but it changes with the passage of time.

"You should be very strange, why do I speak Chinese, half a century ago, I used to stay in Yucheng, Sichuan, for more than a year, my Chinese was learned at that time, but then again, Chinese is really difficult to learn, I spent a lot of energy, Chinese is really a strange language, I went to a place called Jishou in western Hunan, and those people's dialects are not known how many times more difficult than Sichuan dialect. ”

"Jishou, where exactly did you go to Jishou?" Yang Bing's tone became hurried again, that was the place where he was born.

"Let me think about it, after all, in the past half of the world, my brain will be difficult to turn for a while," Andersen scratched his balding hair, "Oh, I came to that place, because I went to understand Xiangxi to drive corpses, and in Jishou has a long history of chasing corpses, that remote mountain village is called Yangjia Village, and Yangjia Village is definitely not wrong." ”

Yang Bing has been exposed to the legend of chasing corpses since he was a child, and many old people in Xiangxi have seen it with their own eyes, including his grandfather, who has told him more than once that the purpose of chasing corpses is to let the souls of the deceased return to their hometowns.

Yangjia Village, three simple words made Yang Yang Bing no longer able to keep calm, he was trembling with excitement, Yangjia Village is the place where he was born and raised, it can only be said that there is a providence in the underworld, Andersen went to his hometown fifty years ago, and he came to Andersen's crypt fifty years later.

Chasing corpses is a kind of secret witchcraft, usually corpse chasers will not pass on witchcraft, they are passed down from generation to generation, not to mention that I am a foreigner, they will not tell Andersen, and later he used his killer weapon - a lot of oceans, with Andersen's ability, you can get a lot of money at will, no matter how time changes, the power of money will not be weakened.

In addition, Andersen has also been to many countries around the world, and it took him a hundred years to have this thin notebook in his hand.

Closing the notes in his hand, Yang Bing walked towards the only table, on which were stacked with a pile of moldy papers, what were these things? With a strong curiosity, he turned over the piles of papers.

After opening it, I found that it was a manuscript in some Danish characters, Yang Bing couldn't read Danish, but the name of each manuscript had an English name attached to it. "Daughter of the Sea", "Wild Swan", "The Ugly Duckling", these are all familiar fairy tales to Yang Bing, why did he collect so many ancient manuscripts here?

When his eyes fell on the date under the manuscript, Yang Bing was suddenly startled and a big exclamation mark appeared in his heart! At this moment, Yang Bing found that his thinking had entered a great misunderstanding, when the old man introduced himself as Hans Christian Andersen, Yang Bing thought that in this city full of fairy tales, the shadow of Hans Christian Andersen was all over every corner of Odense, and it was not surprising that someone renamed himself Hans Christian Andersen, and now he knew that this Hans Christian Andersen was Hans Christian Andersen, and the two were themselves a person.

"Child, you only now understand that as a dark creature, it is not strange to live hundreds of years, I died a century ago, and the almighty soul magic brought me back to life, however, my body is still rotting, I must find someone who can inherit my abilities before it is completely decayed, and you who are proficient in dark magic are the most suitable person. ”

Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales are not just for children, in fact, the fairy tales seen in China are all harmonious, and there is a lot of blood, violence and darkness in the original Hans Christian Andersen fairy tales.

Andersen himself is a solid body of high-level soul magic, and a very successful example, he has completely his own ability to act and think, and his anomaly is not visible from the outside.

The most terrifying thing about soul magic is that the soul is collected through a special container, and when it encounters a suitable carrier, it can borrow the corpse to return the soul, then the carrier can have part of the ability that the soul has before it is born, that is, if you talk about a dead master's soul collected and passed the soul into the body of an ordinary person, then ordinary people can become masters in an instant, so the speed of cultivating masters is incredible, everything has advantages and disadvantages, this magic is very powerful, and the price is also very high. Mainly as a carrier, it will be possessed and will be subjected to Yan zhòng's mental damage, and at the same time, the master's soul is a surname item, and it will dissipate quickly after being used.
