Chapter 6: Playing Ghosts
Wanxi Town is built by the mountains and rivers, there is a river in the town, because the irrigation has nourished the people in the town, named "Wanxi", and the town is named after it.
Wanxi originated in Sifeng Mountain, the world often says "rely on the mountain to eat the mountain, rely on the water to eat the water", there are mountains and rivers here, Wanxi Town and the surrounding villages are rare abundant food and clothing.
But in recent months, the dependence on survival has made people afraid to get closer.
Perhaps it was to feed the tired, and this landscape began to "eat people".
Four hours ago, at the moment when Xi Yin had just let the tiger demon go, a person hurriedly ran back from Sifeng Mountain, that person looked quite embarrassed, his clothes were scattered, he was trembling all over his body when he ran into the crowd, and the man in his thirties was crying before he could speak.
Later, it was everyone who coaxed him well, but poor Xiyin couldn't retreat, and he still carried the name of "God of Flowers" to make decisions for the people of Wanxi Town.
Thinking of this, Xi Yin sighed slowly.
She was still wearing the clothes of the god of flowers, and it was quite inconvenient to move, so she trotted behind Qi Kite with her dress all the way, and the two walked to the scene of the crime when the sun was about to set.
This is a dense forest, legend has it that these trees have existed since the time of this mountain, and the forest has been foggy for many years, and even the native Wanxi townspeople have to have a hard time getting out of the dense forest.
"This should be it. ”
One person and one immortal stopped under a big banyan tree, and Qi Yuan said: "Let's be here tonight, you have eaten the Qingshen Pill, and you have to rest well." As he spoke, he tore off the extra skirt veil of Xiyin's clothes, and tied the fat sleeves to his arms, and in a few clicks, he turned the complicated dress very capable.
Xi Yin waved his arm, it was really much easier, and he couldn't help laughing: "Thank you." ”
Qi Yuan was silent, found a bunch of dry grass and branches, and cast a spell to light a fire while Xi Yin was not paying attention. I can't help but be glad that Xiyin is a big heart.
Xi Yin sat down next to Qi Kite, the firelight reflected the beautiful face, such a soft curve, it really didn't look like the "God of Flowers" just now.
The two were silent for a while, and Qi Yuan spoke: "In Zhenkou, I didn't expect you to do that." ”
Xi Yin's face was full of smiles when she heard her speak, and the smile was slightly reduced at this time, and there was some seriousness, "I have always felt that God is fair, but not merciful. ”
Qi Yuan said: "You are right, ruthlessness lasts for a long time." It's just that you're not ruthless enough. ”
Xi Yin smiled: "I'm just a person after all, otherwise I can't be seen through by you immediately," he said and looked down at the jade gourd on Qi Yuan's waist, "Is he okay?"
Qi Yuan tore off the gourd, pinched the gourd with her fingers and paused, just now in Wanxi Town, she could understand with a look back, this girl was moved by compassion, so when the person was about to scatter his soul, he cast a spell and collected this wisp of remnant soul.
But from then to now, there has not been the slightest movement in the gourd. Qi Yuan shook his head helplessly and said, "The living soul is trapped in the physical body, and the only way to liberate it is to voluntarily give up the physical body. If he was willing, he wouldn't want to take the courage to survive. ”
Xi Yin hurriedly said: "What should I do then?"
Qi Yuan said: "This treasure gourd can keep the soul alive, and how to see if he can have an epiphany in the future - okay, you don't have to worry about these things, take a break, and let's go into the forest tomorrow to take a look." ”
"Hmm. Xiyin yawned, rested his head on the banyan tree, and fell into a deep sleep after a while. Qi Yuan added another handful of firewood and put her head on her shoulder.
The treasure gourd flashed a red light, it was the soul inside that was tormenting itself, Qi Yuan drew a talisman and sighed silently.
Zhan Yan has already returned to Licheng, but the words he said when he left are still in his ears: "The most hated thing in my life is the self-righteous 'good for you', many kindnesses in the world are often asking for their own hardships, if I were you, I would let his soul be scattered, so as not to stain my hands in the future." ”
For Qi Yuan, she was deeply convinced of Zhanyan's statement.
But...... After all, Xiyin still has some expectations for this wisp of soul, so it is not too late to dispose of it after the northern Xinjiang is separated.
It was late at night, and the roars of beast spirits could be heard in the jungle, and people were horrified to hear.
The draft of Wanxi Town depends on Wanxi, and a long section of Wanxi is in this forest.
Because of this forest, Sifeng Mountain has been closed for four months.
According to the townspeople, the first accident was during the spring hunt in March this year, when several young people entered the forest vigorously, but three days passed, and none of them came out.
The townspeople thought that it was a young man who was having fun and got lost, after all, there was a lot of fog in this forest, and it was normal to get lost for ten days and half a month, anyway, everyone grew up in the mountains since childhood, and they knew the basic survival knowledge. But seven days later, the floodgates were opened and the water was released, and all hope was lost.
Thirteen unrecognizable male corpses followed the stream that had just melted in the spring into the town.
Sue the judge and pray to God to worship Buddha. It wasn't the bite of wild monsters, it wasn't murder, people had no choice but to seal the mountain.
Nothing happened again until three days ago, but a few strong men made a bet to come to this forest to break through, and the big man watched his companion suddenly run into the jungle with a heart-rending cry, and he waited under the banyan tree for three days, and on the way home, he found the soaked corpse in the ten thousand streams.
In the early morning of the next day, when Xi Yin woke up, Qi Yuan had just come back, still carrying water and a few mountain fruits in his hand, "Let's just eat a little, it's already been washed." ”
After eating, he went into the forest. Before the morning fog dissipated, the two women held hands at first, and after a few more steps, they had become Xi Yin holding Qi Kite's arm.
"Are you afraid?" Qi Yuan said.
Xi Yin shook his head, but his teeth shook a few times, and he reluctantly opened his mouth: "Don't be afraid." ”
Qi Yuan patted her hand and said, "Stabilize your mind, panic is chaotic." ”
"Hmm. ”
There was a low roar in the distance, sad and sad, Qi Yuan heard that his heart was half cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Xiyin, do you listen to this voice, like a ghost?"
Xiyin was so frightened by the word "ghost" that it took a while to react, and when she tried to listen to it again, there was no sound.
The fog ahead is getting bigger and bigger, the tall trees are getting denser and denser, and the vine branches are growing horizontally and vertically unrestrained, this oppressive feeling makes Qi Yuan irritable in the bottom of his heart, and he can't help but want to stun Xiyin and turn into a prototype and directly burn down this broken forest. was thinking about it in her heart, and suddenly heard a "ah" sound behind her and let go of her hand.
Qi Yuan didn't catch it, so he hurriedly spoke: "Xiyin? What's wrong?"
A voice came from below, "My hairpin has been scratched off by a branch." ”
"Be careful. ”
For a long time, there was no response.
Qi Yuan "chuckled" in his heart, looked down, the fog had dispersed a little, and he vaguely saw a thin figure squatting at his feet, trembling slightly.
"Xiyin?" Qi Yuan screamed again, bent down to help her, and was startled by the sudden rise of her head.
It's still that delicate face, but now it's distorted, the brows are tightly wrinkled, the eyes are round but blank, a mouth seems to be trying to open, the muscles around it twitch, and it took a lot of strength to slowly spit out a word: "Hurt ......"
Looking at this stiff and hideous appearance, needless to say, it is possessed by evil spirits.
Qi Yuan was furious, the corners of his eyes were red slightly, and his palms were full of immortal power, but he couldn't raise his hand to smash it no matter what.
As if for a moment, Qi Kite felt that everything in front of her had lost its color.
Just when he was settling his mind, the demon had fully adapted to Xiyin's body, and a terrible cry broke through the dense branches and leaves and rushed straight into the nine heavens, startling a flock of birds.
Qi Yuan also reacted, reached out to grab her, but she dodged her, and rushed into the depths of the dense forest while screaming.
What a tragic way to die, which can deeply imprint the pain of life on the soul, and even if it is possessed, it cannot be shaken off.
