After I put on the dead man's clothes, the second uncle didn't seem to be satisfied, so he actually grabbed a lot of mud from under the grave and wiped it on my face.

I was disgusted, these grave soil was used to bury the dead, and after the corpse decomposed, the corpse gas would seep out of the coffin and mix with the grave soil, which also caused the mud under the grave to smell very strong and disgusting.

I don't understand why the second uncle did something disgusting, but out of trust, I gritted my teeth and held back without resisting.

After a while, the second uncle wiped my face with the mud and quickly pulled me into the grave.

Strange to say, since I changed into the death clothes, I felt that the lanterns gathered in the sky had become fewer, and even the soul lamps that had been hanging over our heads seemed to have lost their purpose, and after a few aimless circles, they slowly floated in the other direction.

I was surprised, but the second uncle kept covering my mouth with his hand, preventing me from speaking, and still hid motionless under the grave.

After a few minutes, after all the soul lamps chasing behind us had dispersed and drifted away aimlessly, the second uncle breathed a sigh of relief, let go of the hand covering my mouth, and leaned against the side and gasped.

Still puzzled, I pointed to the scattered soul lamps, "Why don't they continue to chase?" ”

The second uncle glanced at me, took the initiative to lower his voice, and said that the soul lamp relied on the sensing of yang energy to capture the target.

"This dead life clothes have been buried in the soil for a while, and they are covered with corpse gas, when you wear the dead life clothes on your body, the yang energy on your body will also be covered by the life clothes, and the unjust souls in the soul lamp can't sense your yang energy, so naturally there is no way to track us."

I sighed as if I didn't understand, and then looked at the second uncle who was wiping his sweat, and suddenly felt wrong.

As long as the second uncle wears the dead life clothes alone, but I don't wear it myself, even if these soul lamps can't sense me, I should be able to sense the yang energy on the second uncle's body.

The second uncle saw my doubts, shook his head and smiled strangely, "I have other ways to seal my yang energy, and I don't have to wear a dead life coat like you." ”

All right.

I looked away, but my gaze flickered slightly, and unconsciously deepened my suspicion of the second uncle.

We didn't stay long in Chaofenggang, and after avoiding the search of the soul lamp, we got up again and walked behind Chaofenggang.

There is still a small ditch here, a little wider than the ditch at the entrance of the village, and when we walked to the river, the scene in front of us made me and my second uncle gasp at the same time.

The rushing river was full of thick white mist, and there were a large number of white paper boats.

These paper boats are the same as the ones I have seen at the entrance of the village before, each of which is made of white paper, with a scarlet lantern hanging on it, and some paper figures can be seen shaking on the boat.

These paper figures are all cut out according to the proportions of this person, and the facial features are depicted with a red pen, which looks vivid, and from a distance they look like real people, which is extremely terrifying.

When the second uncle saw this scene, his face became more serious, "Not only has the entrance of the village been arranged, but all the passages out of the village have been arranged in the same way, fortunately, there are no vampire bats here, we can try to break through." ”

I didn't calm down the saliva, saying that there is no bridge here, and if you want to cross the river, you can only hold the boat, where can we get a boat in the middle of the night?

The topography of Zhoujiagou is relatively special, surrounded by water on three sides, one side is a mountain, except for the stone bridge at the entrance of the village, there is only the road behind the mountain.

Unfortunately, the road at the entrance of the village and the back mountain was blocked, and we had to hold a boat to leave the village in other directions.

But there are no rafts here, and there are so many paper boats floating on the riverbed that if we get into the water, we will definitely be attacked by these paper boats.

The second uncle also thought of this, gritted his teeth and said, "I can only cut bamboo and make a simple bamboo raft." ”

After saying that, he walked to the bamboo forest by the river, cut down large green bamboos, and then tied them up with bark to make a very simple bamboo raft.

Just to build a bamboo raft, we delayed a lot of time, seeing that the sky was about to dawn again, there was no time to test the strength of the bamboo raft, the second uncle pushed the bamboo raft under the water, gritted his teeth and said, "We get on the bamboo raft, as long as we float to the other side, we can escape and ascend to heaven." ”

I hummed and crept up to the raft.

This bamboo raft is very simple, it was temporarily tied up by the second uncle with more than a dozen bamboos, the draft is very deep, I just climbed up, I felt that the bamboo raft sank a little, and the calf was also wet by the river.

I was worried that such a bamboo raft was not strong enough and might not be able to bear the weight of two people, but the time was too rushed, and we didn't have any extra time to reinforce the bamboo raft, and soon the second uncle also jumped on the bamboo raft, took out the black short knife, and drew a cut in the palm of his hand, and the blood stayed along the blade and dripped on the bamboo raft.

He dipped his index finger in the blood, quickly drew a talisman on the raft, and after a while, a blood talisman was formed, telling me that I could row to the other side of the river.

"As long as the exorcism charm is not destroyed, those paper boats will not attack us, but fortunately the river is not wide, and we will soon be able to reach the other side of the river with our efforts."

There was no other choice, so I could only follow my second uncle's advice, prop up the bamboo pulp, and row to the other side of the river.

There was still a lot of fog on the riverbed, and it looked foggy and the view was very unclear.

Fortunately, the second uncle didn't lie to me, the runes on the bamboo raft seemed to have a strong effect on driving away evil spirits, and when I opened the bamboo raft, those paper boats did not take the initiative to float towards us, and everything was very calm.

I breathed a sigh of relief, carefully avoided the paper boat, and propped the bamboo raft to the middle of the riverbed, seeing that it was about to reach the opposite bank, but at this time, the second uncle suddenly pressed my shoulder with his hand and said in a deep voice,

"No, don't go any further."

"How?"

I was stunned for a moment, followed the eyes of the second uncle, and then found that there was more dense fog floating on the other side of the river, and in the depths of the dense fog, a black figure was standing coldly on the bank, roaring in a hoarse tone,

"Hehe, it's ridiculous to want to escape from Zhoujiagou in this way, do you think you can really run away?"

Damn, it was still discovered.

I was shocked, quickly stopped rowing, looked at it with the help of the light of the lantern, and found that it was actually the third uncle standing in the thick fog!

No, it's not just the third uncle who came.

Behind the third uncle, there were several other black ghosts, namely grandma, third aunt, and many villagers who had died......

They all shrugged their heads, their faces purple and blue, and glared at us with fierce and resentful eyes.

I was stunned, the former "relatives" have become life-seeking ghosts, standing on the opposite side of the river bank with compassion, grinding my teeth while waiting for me and my second uncle to go ashore, I came from sorrow, desperately shouted,

"Grandma, third uncle, I'm Zhou Xuan, why do you want to hurt me?"

The second uncle shook my shoulder vigorously, "Don't shout, they have been refined into evil ghosts, and they are specially guarding the way out of the village, and they won't tell you about family affection at all." ”

Cluck......

As soon as the second uncle's words fell, a gloomy cold wind drifted from the opposite bank, and then I felt the raft under my feet begin to shake violently, and large bubbles bubbled up one after another under the dark and dreary river, and a large number of whirlpools appeared.
