Chapter 8: Luring the Ghost Out of the Cave
Song Yu sealed himself in front of the case for a day. After sitting for a long time, his waist was almost no longer his own, and his left leg was numb, making it difficult for him to walk every step. Just walking to the door of the lobby exhausted his strength.
If you can brush the level, how can you rely on this roundabout method to do tasks and find bugs...... Song Yu carried the list of people who were initially harmed by the strange ghosts that he had compiled based on his impressions, and sighed very vicissitudes. The sun was setting in the west, and he stayed in Qinghe Town for a day, but he didn't see much of the ordinary, daytime Qinghe Town.
Before Song Yu could muster up the courage to use his numb legs to find Xie Nanshi, Du Anchen had already come to him. She seemed to sneer at the embarrassed Song Yu, and then saluted hastily: "My lord." I have called them all, as you commanded. ”
"Oh? Yes, it's very efficient. Song Yu moved his leg and felt pain again. He twitched a face and barely managed to maintain his boss's dignity, "I'll go right away." ”
"Immediately?" Du Anchen repeated, laughed again, but did not trample on Song Yu's last stubbornness, and turned around and went to the lobby. Xie Nanshi also heard the voice, his outfit was the same as yesterday, an old Taoist robe, and a white hosta of poor quality tied his long hair, faint to the point of gray. That face is as noble and cold as yesterday, and it is particularly eye-catching. I don't know if it's Song Yu's illusion, he always felt that Du Anchen glanced at Nanshi, and the corners of his sarcastic mouth calmed down a lot.
"Yan Kong, it's understandable." Song Yu muttered, the next step was still so painful that he wanted to cut off his leg.
Song Yu was so disabled and strong, and he moved all the way to the front hall, and before he entered, he heard a noise. He had some bad premonitions in his heart, and sure enough, when he walked around the corner, he saw nearly a hundred people gathered there, men, women and children.
Song Yu turned his head and looked at Du Anchen silently, and asked Du Anchen with his eyes, what the hell was going on.
"A few of them are outsiders over there." Du Anchen said and pointed to the few people standing in the left corner, and then pointed to the people gathered together on the other side: "These people have relatives in their families who have passed away, so it is possible that they have been to the incense and candle shop, please ask the adults slowly." ”
Isn't that right...... Qinghe Town is so big, and every family has a relationship with each other. As long as someone dies in these months, the relatives on the side can gather the people in the town.
Song Yu casually pulled someone over and asked, "In the past few months, have you had any relatives who have passed away?" ”
The man was obviously a farmer, with dark skin, and replied resignedly: "If you go back to your lordship, my aunt's cousin's sister-in-law left last month, and I went to the funeral. ”
Song Yu kept smiling: "Oh...... My sister-in-law is a woman, right? When you are buried, you shouldn't buy her a paper bride, right? ”
The farmer was amused, and when he laughed, he showed a tooth of white teeth: "Your Excellency, you are laughing." ”
"Do you think it's funny?" After Song Yupi finished smiling, he turned his head to look at Du Anchen: "Didn't you ask people in advance before you brought them?" ”
Du Anchen replied unhurriedly: "My lord, you didn't make this request. ”
Song Yu thought that Du Anchen would not listen to his orders so much, but he didn't expect Du Anchen to operate so straightforwardly, and he was a little speechless for a while. However, Xie Nanshi walked in front of these townspeople one by one, and his frowning brows never stretched. When he finished walking around, Song Yu immediately leaned over: "How is it?" What did you find? ”
Xie Nanshi shook his head and said softly with some doubts: "I feel the aura of a strange ghost, but there is no problem with these people. ”
Xie Nanshi was also a little hesitant when he said this. Ever since he had gone back five years in a strange way, he had repeatedly felt the scent of a strange ghost but found nothing. This made Xie Nanshi begin to doubt whether what he had learned was really reliable, and his fingers were unconsciously clenched together.
Song Yu sighed helplessly: "Okay, you should recognize people." That who ......"
Song Yu forgot Du Anchen's name for a while, and turned his head as he spoke, but found that the person didn't know when he had disappeared, but the old master was standing aside and watching the play happily.
This one is obviously easier to use! Song Yu immediately smiled and beckoned to the old master: "Mr. Zhou, come here, there is something I need to trouble you." ”
The old master was suddenly named, but his first reaction was to take a step back, wanting to slip away directly as if he had never come.
"Sir." Even though Song Yu didn't have the blessing of skills, he was so young that he stopped in front of the old master in a few steps, and asked sincerely and eagerly, "Where are you going?" ”
The old master bookkeeper never thought of singing this harmony with Song Yubi, but at this time, in front of everyone, he, a lonely little old man, relied on the identity of the head of the Ping An Division to have such a little social reputation, and at this time, he could only cooperate with Song Yujia: "What do you command?" ”
"You're an old man from Qinghe Town, so it's only fitting that you're here. I would also like to ask you to appease you and make a book one by one. ”
After a pause, Song Yu thought that it was a little late today, and he was afraid that he would not be able to finish interrogating these people even if he stayed up all night, so he changed his words again: "I just said that I want to recruit a few officials to do this, and I think your conditions are good." As long as you are willing to stay this time, you can get ...... regardless of whether you are hired later."
He quietly glanced at the silver two in the background: "Three taels of money." ”
Song Yu's words were contrived, and his voice was raised high, so that everyone could hear it clearly.
After this count, the hundreds of people in the entire courtyard were silent for a moment. Three taels of silver is enough for ordinary people to live for a long time, not to mention that it is almost for nothing. Looking at Song Yu again, how did everyone's eyes look at him, how did they think that his eyebrows were clear and beautiful, and most importantly, the whole person was shining with a layer of silver.
The old master had choked on dust before, and he may still have some sequelae, and after a violent cough, he couldn't care about going against Song Yu, and protested in his ear: "Si Li doesn't have so much money!" ”
"I have." Song Yu felt that the old master looked down on people, as a big brush, if "Seeing God" was a stand-alone machine, it would not be an exaggeration to say that his economic level was rich compared to ordinary NPCs. To have money is to have confidence, Song Yu has always been on his waist, and casually pointed to the few foreigners who were arrested, ready to lead them into the house, "Let's start with a few of you." ”
Several outsiders immediately scrambled to follow behind Song Yu. Although Xie Nanshi felt that Song Yu's move was too public, he really had no obligation to take care of his housekeeper. He just wanted to find the source of the strange ghosts who destroyed a town after this place, so he didn't raise any objections, and quietly followed behind Song Yu.
The moment he turned around, something happened in vain. A ghost claw grabbed straight at the back of Nanshi's heart, Xie Nanshi reacted quickly, but if he dodged, Song Yu, who had no cultivation, would be injured by the ghost. Between the lightning and the fire, Xie Nanshi had to avoid the vital point, and forced this claw down with his back. The shabby robe was suddenly torn out of several cuts, oozing blood.
"I feel it, it's you who killed my sister!" It was an old man in the corner, and no one noticed his presence until he said anything. At this time, cracks appeared in the skin that originally belonged to humans, revealing the hideous black ghost claws inside, and the aura belonging to the strange ghost instantly diffused out, making the crowd in the courtyard avoid it, and the scene was even more chaotic for a while.
The old man's expression was distorted, as if a person could not yet use his muscles to express feelings.
His eyes were all black, and there was no longer a little white, and he could see a little regret between his eyebrows: "The human skin is precious, and the gentleman has repaired it more and more...... If it weren't for you...... It's all your fault! You, damn it! As he spoke, he raised his ghost claws high and threw himself at Xie Nanshi again.
"Left to support Liujia, right to guard Liuding......" Xie Nanshi's fingers quickly sketched the appearance of the rune in the void, and when he clicked the last stroke on his fingertips, a golden light talisman suddenly appeared, and it was an instant freehand drawing.
The old man slammed into the charm, and his skin made a stabbing sound as if it had been picked up by fire, and the old man's face was full of mottled marks, and the black ghost face below was faintly visible. The "old man" let out a piercing scream, and his body instantly swelled more than doubled.
The people around them fled in a hurry, and the peace division instantly became a pot of porridge. However, what made everyone feel even more desperate was that the door of the Ping An Division could not be opened, and they could not get out.
Song Yu immediately got under the table, and after getting in, he found that there was already a person below. The old master looked at Song Yu with an innocent and frightened face, and spoke with Douyin: "Big, big...... What's going on, my lord? ”
"Adults don't know, and adults don't know either." Song Yu held his jaw and sighed, he was obviously hiding quickly, but at this moment, he couldn't help but stretch out his head and look outside, and he didn't know whether he was timid or bold.
At this time, Kung Fu Xie Nanshi and the strange ghost have been entangled together, this strange ghost is only the second level, and it has not yet completely fused with the human body, and it is still in the form of a strange ghost when the human skin is lifted. However, it was obviously much more powerful than the paper bride outside the town, and Xie Nanshi's spell hit it, leaving only different burn marks.
Xie Nanshi is not without a trick to defeat the enemy, but the strange ghost's movements are wide open and close, if Xie Nanshi is a little careless, it is very easy to affect the many people present.
With concerns, Xie Nanshi's shot was naturally not neat enough, and after a few rounds, a few new injuries were added to his body, which made people tremble. Only Nanshi didn't care about it, and when he saw the opportunity, when the strange ghost rushed forward, he untied a red rope from his wrist and strangled the strange ghost's neck forward, and the strange ghost's neck was forced to lean back.
At the same time, a greatsword plunged straight into the back of the wraith's heart from behind.
The strange ghost was forced to bend behind him, revealing a flamboyant and cold face that belonged to Du Anchen.
