(Reader exchange QQ group: 477523336, welcome to join)

Chasing corpses is a kind of Gu technique, and Gu is solved by "worms in the belly", and there are black witches and white witches. Chasing corpses belongs to one of the five arts of the White Witch, that is, the mountain art category of "mountain, medicine, divination, life, and physiognomy". That is, let the corpse of the guest die in another country, follow behind the corpse, and return to the homeland through the state and province.

Xiao Mo had heard a little about Gu magic, and knew that it was a kind of demon method that studied supernatural power and focused on drawing talismans and chanting spells, but he had never seen it. Now that the facts are in front of us, it is not a rumor, but I can't help but believe it, as if I think there is something wrong.

Xu Wanqiu's cry happened to be heard by Daotong, who secretly thought that the "goods" scared others, so he made this remark.

Seeing this, Xiao Mo jumped out, wrapped his fingers around his bangs, and said jokingly: "Why be so polite, if you come, you are a guest, just sit casually." ”

Xiaodao's eyes were dull, not smiling, seemingly ruthless and insensitive, raising his hand to rattle the corpse.

The corpse seemed to be alive, led by the head corpse, standing neatly against the wall behind the door panel, Xiaodao looked back and said, "Disturbed." ”

Qin Yue wanted to struggle up, but he was suppressed by Zhao Li again, and was about to speak, but he couldn't even spit out half a word. His expression was miserable, and he was very puzzled when he thought about it.

Seeing this, Wan'er put her wet clothes back on, her body was very cold to the touch, and she slowly walked around the clay statue of Xiang Yu, and the purple gold folding fan flew in her palm. Seeing that she was dressed in white and still chic, as if nothing had happened, everything was as usual, and said: "If you are driving away the corpse, why do you live in the hotel? This is not the Chu State, so I will not leave guests." ”

Chu is still a ghost, and there are many dead corpse inns on the road, and people can't live there. Behind the door panel of the inn is the place where the corpse rests, separated from the outside world forever, so the door is open all year round. In order to ensure that the corpse did not decompose, the corpse chaser stopped in the store for several days and nights in heavy rain, and did not leave the road until the rain stopped.

In the Liang Kingdom, guest houses are usually not allowed for corpse chasers, so they stay in the mountains more. In a sense, the corpse chaser has left the category of human beings, and as a third-party mysterious existence, it is in response to that sentence, the ghost is really a god, and its witch is a god.

Dao Tong bowed his head and explained: "The night rain outdoors is very urgent, it will definitely disperse the soul solidification ointment and corrupt the corpse, it is not advisable to hurry, otherwise Xiaodao will definitely stay in the mountains." ”

The corpse chaser originated from Taoism, so the corpse chaser dressed as a Taoist priest, and it did not necessarily belong to the Sanqing. In order to avoid the public's sight, they often walk at night, do not light lanterns, and shake the soul bell in their hands, so that night walkers can avoid and the deceased can rest their souls.

Zhao Li let go of Qin Yue, helped Lian'er out, and said: "I look at the clothes of the deceased, most of them are soldiers of the Liang Kingdom, and they must be soldiers who died in the battle of Zezhou. ”

Wan'er glared at Zhao Li, but saw that Lian'er was already so frightened that she couldn't speak, tears rolled in her eyes, and Wan'er said: "Lian'er don't be afraid, death is empty, like wax to ashes, nothing is terrible, what is terrible is the living, the so-called human heart is unpredictable." ”

Dao Tong flicked his sleeves and searched his body, signaled that he had not hidden a sharp weapon, and said slowly: "Son, please rest assured, Xiaodao is by no means a villain." Even if the intentions are wrong, I alone will not be your opponent. ”

Xiao Mo saw that he was about the same age as himself, and he felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy, stepped forward to put his arm on his shoulder, and said, "Your bell is very interesting, borrow Lao Tzu to play?"

Dao Tong's shoulders shook, he had already taken a few steps, and said: "The Yin Qi of the Dementor Bell is too heavy, and mortals are afraid that touching it will damage Yang Shou, and it is definitely not something to play with." ”

Xiao Mo said in his heart: "Is there an essential connection between the sarcophagus of Wushan and these corpses? Seeing that this little boy is by no means a good person, isn't there another plan for staying overnight today? Since it seems to be an enemy and not a friend, the enemy of the enemy is Lao Tzu's friend, and it is difficult for you to leave today." Xiao Mo smiled: "Just kidding, why be so serious." We are the same kind of people, you are not welcomed, and Lao Tzu is not. ”

Xiao Mo tugged at the sleeve of Dao Tong's coat, brought it to the male corpse holding the baby in his arms, and said with a smile: "You see that this pair is so entangled, can you shake these two up, I want to ask how they died." ”

Dao Tong shook his head and said: "All I can do is to write the birth date of the deceased on yellow paper with a red pen, and then draw a requiem charm, burn one and swallow it with water, and paste the other on the forehead of the deceased, so that the corpse can stand and walk with exorcism." If you want the corpse to speak, you have to return the soul, and the cultivation of the trail is still shallow, unless the family teacher is alive. ”

Xu Wanqiu stretched out the folding fan, and asked, "I don't know where the teacher is?"

Dao Tong hesitated slightly, his eyes flickered, and he said slowly: "The family teacher is a real person in Xuanxu. ”

Qin Yue was stunned for a moment, sighed that time had passed, and vaguely remembered that when he was young, he had plucked his beard, and now it has been more than twenty years.

Speaking of Xuanxu Zhenren, we have to start from when the Wu'an Army made Ma Yin take the initiative to declare himself a vassal to the Liang State.

Ma Yinzi Batu, in his early years, he was a carpenter, and later joined the army of Qin Zongquan, and was subordinate to Sun Ru's subordinates, and Xuanxu was Sun Ru's staff.

Staff officers and clerks in the shogunate can participate in military aircraft and command military affairs. After Sun Ru died in battle, Xuanxu has been following Ma Yin left and right, making suggestions, serving the Son of Heaven, soothing the people of Li, appeasing the bandits inside, and strengthening the feudal domain outside, so that the state of Chu gradually became stronger, and Ma Yin sat firmly in the position of the king of Chu.

Zhao Li said: "I can't imagine that your little brother is famous, listen to what you say, is the real person of Xuanxu no longer alive?"

Dao Tong sighed: "The family teacher is dedicated to the country, and he has repeatedly risked death to admonish, but in the end he was still killed by traitorous ministers, and he ended up beheaded. At this point, the anger in his eyes suddenly appeared, as if he came from hell, and the netherworld was blurry and difficult to discern.

Wan'er saw that she was sad about Daotong, so she didn't say much, turned her head to comfort Lian'er and said: "No matter what the weather is, you will definitely leave tomorrow, your leg injury has not healed, and it is inconvenient to travel." That being the case, Zhao Li and I will first enter Deyun City with the little lewd thief, and we will mark it along the way, and you and Qin Yue will stay in the ancestral hall, and wait for the fourth child to come back, and after meeting with the villagers, we can trace and find my residence. On this trip, I will definitely sword Xue Chong. ”

Lian'er looked around, burst into tears, and said, "Lian'er, there are dead people everywhere here, not to mention that Qin Yue is not a good thing." ”

Qin Yue smiled: "Cowards are also ghosts, are you afraid of yourself?"

Lian'er burst into tears, and the shark beads were frequent, and Chu Chu was pitiful.

Xu Wanqiu hugged Lian'er into her arms and said softly: "It's okay, Xiao Si will be back soon, not to mention that Qin Yue is so bad, ghosts have to avoid him." ”

Xu Wanqiu felt Lian'er's reluctance, the two of them have been tired of being together since they were children, eating and sleeping together, how could she be willing to think about it? She looked at Zhao Li, saw that his eyebrows were handsome and picturesque, thinking back to the scene just now, was it really him who kissed herself? Thinking about it, she couldn't help but faint with her cheeks.
