Chapter 308: The Corpse of the Lost Soul

Coupled with a pair of dusty clothes, the dead air is even thicker, as if it is a walking corpse, and it should have been greeted for a while after not seeing it for a few years.

But now there is still business, and it is important to ask what is important.

"It's fine." I squeezed out a smile and asked curiously, "Brother Xing, what's going on in the village again." ”

"Hey, let's talk as we go." Xing Baole's expression suddenly became much more solemn, "Since Mrs. Xu was drowned, two people have died in the village now, and this one died just now, and I was dealing with the corpse just now, so I couldn't pick you up as soon as possible." ”

"Three dead?" I chuckled inwardly, "How do people die?" ”

I thought to myself, this is a very evil thing.

Xing Baole's brows furrowed into Gada, "They were all drowned by the river, and when they were found, their faces were soaked in the diving pit by the river." ”

"Face soaked in a dive pit by the river? Can this drown people too? Wait, I suddenly thought of something, looked at him and asked, "Did those three commit suicide?" ”

Xing Baole said that it was impossible for people to drown in the shallow puddle by the river, and that the deceased must have drowned by suicide, but this is completely unreasonable.

The deceased was mentally normal before his death, and the family relationship was relatively harmonious, and there was no motive or bad thing to commit suicide at all, but he drowned inexplicably.

When the body was found, the body was lying on the river's edge, its head soaking down in the puddle, as if it had deliberately fallen into the puddle and choked to death by sucking water into its lungs.

What's even more strange is that the corpse's soul is gone.

Hearing this, I chuckled in my heart and said in surprise: "The corpse soul is still gone?" By the way, then you said that the deceased has anything to do with the drowned old lady? ”

At this moment, a dark cloud drifted in the sky, and a cold wind blew from the endless wasteland, and the atmosphere was depressing and gloomy.

Xing Baole tidied up the collar of his clothes, subconsciously looked around and said solemnly: "I don't know, this matter is too weird, now the people in the village are panicking, and the police can't investigate it, so they can only let the villagers pay more attention." ”

After speaking, he looked at me again and said, "My father doesn't have any clue about the drowning of the villagers, maybe you can see something, this time I trouble you Xiao An." ”

When I heard this, I hurriedly said: "Don't count on me, your father is a person at the level of my grandmother, and he can't solve things, count on me?" ”

"You are humble Xiao An, and you also look up to my dad a little." Xing Baole said bluntly: "My father's Taoism is mainly aimed at fishing for corpses, and there is no comparison with your grandmother's decathlon, you have inherited your grandmother's mantle, and you may be able to figure out the cause of the drowning of the villagers." ”

After Xing Baole finished speaking, he looked my body up and down, and then looked behind me, "I felt a burst of energy fluctuations, if I guessed correctly, it was the immortal family on your body, just this point, it is not me and my father, the immortal family on your body may be able to investigate the truth about the drowning of the villagers." ”

I looked behind me and saw a few Wong Tai Sin jumping up and down following me, some of these immortals were staying on me, and some were cultivating in the mountains.

The mischievous Wong Tai Sin often wandered around me, and of course, ordinary people couldn't feel them.

"Let's go to the village and talk about it." After I said that, he suggested that I go over and look at the body first to see if I could detect anything wrong.

He also said that the villagers all believed that some people drowned because the drowned Mrs. Xu and Xiao Zheng were too angry, and they went back to the village to make a fuss and wanted the whole village to die.

I curiously asked the old lady the reason for her drowning, and what happened to Xiao Zheng who drowned, it seems that there are still a lot of people who drowned.

Xing Baole said that when he arrived at Mrs. Xu's house, he was talking in detail, and things were a bit complicated.

In about half an hour, we will walk into the village.

Far away, we saw five or six villagers pointing at us and talking about something, men, women and children.

"Baole, are you back, has Mr. Big picked it up?" An old man in his sixties on crutches, walking over with small steps, his eyes may not be good, rubbing his eyes to take a closer look at me, and suddenly said in astonishment: "Oh, this, whose child is this, Baole, it won't be the big gentleman you are looking for, can you understand things at such a young age?" Woo, my son's death seems to be in the dark for nowhere. ”

The old man was disappointed, and the villagers behind him also wiped their tears sadly, presumably all of them were family members of the deceased, and they looked at me in surprise, although they didn't say anything, but they were obviously questioning my ability.

"Don't worry, Uncle Xiao." Xing Baole patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "This big gentleman I found, don't look at his age, but his ability is better than mine, let's go over and see your son's body first, maybe we can investigate the cause of your son's death." ”

The old man wiped his tears sadly, his body trembled slightly, and he showed the expression of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and sighed: "Hey, that's okay, let's go, let's go and see again." ”

After speaking, the old man walked towards the village, and we followed, attracting more than a dozen villagers to follow me from a distance along the way, looking at me curiously and pointing.

I stared at the old man Xiao who walked in front of me and said in my heart that it really deserved to be Xiaojia Village, and there were so many people with the surname Xiao, and then I asked Xing Baole curiously, it seems that their family didn't live in this Xiaojia Village before.

Xing Baole said that this is the case, a few years ago, the whole family, including his grandparents, lived in a small city, which was quite close to my grandmother's house, but later after his grandfather died, his grandmother wanted to return to Xiaojia Village to live, so they came to live here.

His grandmother is also from Xiaojia Village, and his father Xing Wushang was also born in this village, but later left the village when he grew up and took his parents to live in the city.

As he was talking, he saw the old man Xiao in front of him walk into the courtyard of a two-room large tiled house, and the sound of a dog barking was heard during the period.

When I walked in, I found a mourning hall in the middle of the courtyard, and there was a sad and weeping old lady kneeling in front of the corpse, crying and crying that you are dead, how can your mother and father live?

"Old woman, get up quickly." Old man Xiao coughed and hurriedly said, "Baole is looking for Mr. Big, you get out of the way and let Mr. Big see what's going on." ”

The old lady had gray hair, a thin figure, and looked less than one meter six, and when she heard that a big man came to help take care of things, she quickly stood up and turned around, but when she saw me, she also showed a shocked expression, "This, this young man is a big man?" ”

"Hey, don't ask more, Baole must have real skills, you can go back to the house and make tea." Old man Xiao urged.

The old lady didn't ask much of it, but smiled at me reluctantly, and walked into the house.

"Ah, don't be busy, I'll take a look and leave." After speaking, I walked into the mourning hall and looked at the corpse, and my pupils suddenly shrank.

I saw that the corpse's face was soaked white, his eyes were wide open, his expression was resentful, and there was a resentment in his chest, and he was obviously unwilling to die.

The soul in the body has really disappeared, and it has been said in the Jizo Sutra that soon after the death of a normal person, the consciousness is dim, and it is inconvenient for good and evil, that is, it is muddy, and the soul has not yet left the ability to leave the body.

It will take more than seven days for the soul to gradually regain its senses and leave the body, either becoming a lonely soul and a wild ghost, or being dragged into reincarnation by cause and effect.

But this man was drowned today, and his soul disappeared, which is so strange that I dare to conclude that it must have been sniped by something.

At this time, Old Man Xiao cried again, "My son is only in his forties, and his daughter-in-law has not yet married, so he left one step ahead of us, he is pitiful, what can we do in the future." ”

No matter what era it is, there will be more or less singles in the countryside, either the poor cannot marry a daughter-in-law, or no one wants to marry if they have bad habits.

This old man Xiao's son died without marrying a daughter-in-law, and it is estimated that this has become a big problem for the old man.

"Xiao An, do you see what's coming?" At this time, Xing Baole looked at the corpse and said solemnly: "I can only see that he has a breath of resentment in his chest, and he is unwilling to die, and the others really don't see any clues." ”

I looked at the corpse and nodded, "That's right, it's fortunate that the corpse's soul is gone, otherwise the corpse will definitely cheat the corpse in the near future by taking advantage of this resentment." ”

"Huh?" Old man Xiao was shocked when he heard this, and his expression was even more frightened, "Big, Mr. Big, you didn't scare me, did you, does my son really know how to cheat corpses?" ”

The old lady was also frightened when she heard this, and her face was as pale as paper.

The villagers who came in with us to see the excitement went home as if the timid ones ran away, and the bold ones hid far away.

"Don't be afraid, your son's soul has disappeared, and he won't cheat the corpse, but the corpse is not suitable for a long time, so it should be cremated as soon as possible." I looked at the two old men and said.

The second elder was relieved a lot when he heard this, but he cried even more sadly, saying that the soul is so gone, so I must find a way to help, and find his son's soul to rest under the nine springs.

I walked over to the corpse's head, looked at his wide-open eyes for a moment, and then put my hand on his eyelid and closed it slightly.

The cold touch of his skin sent chills down my heart, but when I closed his eyelids for less than five seconds, he opened them violently again, and his eyes were even more resentful, and he didn't want to close his eyes even when he died.

Seeing this, the second elder cried even more sadly and was also scared.

Xing Baole asked me again, "Xiao An, do you see what's coming?" ”

I sighed and shook my head, "Not yet, he..."

But before I could finish speaking, the red egg in the space inside the Danzhu in my mind suddenly fluctuated.

I hurriedly raised my hand to stop Xing Baole who was about to speak, and then my consciousness entered the red egg in the Danzhu, only to see that it emitted a trace of excited emotional fluctuations and conveyed a thought to me.
