Chapter 3: The Woman in Red
Woo~~Woo~~
Mu Bai, who had just walked into Nanping Village with Rhubarb, heard a sad cry.
Looking around, I saw a family dozens of meters away from the entrance of the village, and a few wreaths and paper people were placed next to the gate.
I don't know, but the cry must have come from here.
I listened to it again, and sure enough.
However, Mu Bai didn't look around, and it was better to avoid it if he met Bai Shi.
One is a kind of respect, and the other is that if you are washed away by filthy things, you will get sick at a young age, and you may even ask a local Taoist priest to exorcise evil spirits.
When he entered a ghostly dimensional world before, he had encountered such a thing once.
A good person, suddenly the voice changed from a man to a woman.
The eyes that were originally smart lost their luster in a blink of an eye, and the darkness was terrifying.
The most important thing to say is that it sounds very gloomy.
At that time, if he hadn't reacted quickly, he threw a grenade directly.
I don't know how serious the consequences are?
So his footsteps did not stop, but led Rhubarb and continued to walk towards the village.
It wasn't long before he walked inside, and his expression began to become solemn.
Because since he entered Nanping Village, he has not seen a figure appear on the street.
What's even more bizarre is that before the sun sets, every house closes its windows and doors.
Originally, he wanted to ask someone to ask which family the address the black-robed man said.
After all, his understanding of the world is only an approximation, like the matter of sending darts, he only knows the result, and the specific process is not very clear.
In other words, it is impossible to find the place that the black-robed man said.
Fortunately, Nanping Village is not big, and after walking in for more than ten minutes with the rhubarb.
Finally, in the southernmost part of the village, I found the place that the black-robed man said.
“44。 ”
looked at the lonely courtyard in front of him, and looked at the house number written on the gate.
Mu Bai's heart couldn't help but let go.
Instructions are in the right place.
So he came to the door, raised his hand and knocked lightly a few times, and shouted, "Is anyone home?"
Time passed, probably a few minutes.
Just after the last bit of sunset on the horizon.
Finally, there was a "creak" of the door opening in the darkness.
Then I saw a woman with her hair draped and dressed in red, carrying an animal oil lamp, walking out of the door.
After the woman in red came out, she looked at Mu Bai and did not speak.
Mu Bai didn't speak.
There is even a hint of nervousness in my heart.
Because he knew what the woman in red in front of him was.
So he directly handed the package to the woman in red, and then turned to leave.
However, just as he was about to leave, the woman in red suddenly spoke: "Something is wrong, it has been replaced." ”
"Impossible," Mu Bai paused when he heard that the thing had been changed, and instinctively turned back.
It's just that when he said this, he felt a sigh in his heart, and he knew something bad.
He had forgotten what the black-robed man had told him.
Strange to say, just as he turned to speak.
A cold wind suddenly hit the face.
Then his body seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and he couldn't help but shiver.
Even the rhubarb on the side hissed.
Feeling this cold wind, Mu Bai knew that he was on the way.
And what frightened him the most was that the woman in red just looked at him coldly and didn't say anything when he refuted him.
Then he carried the flickering beast oil lamp and walked back directly.
"Bang,"
There was a heavy closing of the door in the darkness.
Hiss......
Looking at the woman in red who closed the door and returned to the house, Mu Bai's expression changed.
He didn't know if things would change because of this.
So he took the rhubarb and left here in a hurry.
There is a land temple in the east of Nanping Village, although the incense is not very strong in the past, but there are still people who come to worship the incense every day.
But since the incident of the red-clothed man claiming his life in the village ten days ago, few people have come.
After all, the land gods don't care about ghosts.
So the temple is now deserted.
Especially at night, it's a little eerie.
Tonight, however, there was a fire coming out of the temple.
Looks like someone has settled here.
Indeed, from the reflection of the firelight, there are two people sitting in the temple at this moment.
"Senior brother, is that female ghost who came out of the Red Square really about to advance?"
"Eight or nine is not far from ten, judging from the number of deaths in Nanping Village, the other party has already sucked the essence of eight people. ”
"If you are sucking the essence of a young and strong man, judging from the rules of heaven and earth with nine as the extreme, you can almost change from a black-clothed ghost to a real red-clothed ghost. ”
Speaking of the red-clothed ghost, in the flashing firelight, both of them showed a touch of melancholy on their faces.
If that female ghost really turned into a red-clothed ghost, he would not have been so smooth when he came to this temple in Nanping Village to collect the power of incense.
In fact, the reason why the female ghost of the Red Square came to Nanping Village was mainly because this temple gave birth to the power of incense.
You know, the power of incense can make ghosts condense into yang bodies and haunt the human world during the day.
This is a great temptation for all ghosts.
Of course, in addition to being useful for ghosts, the power of incense has an extraordinary effect on humans.
This is also the reason why after the incident of the red-clothed life-seeking incident in Nanping Village, the Taoist Temple hurriedly sent him and the two of them.
However, after coming to Nanping Village, the two of them found that the situation was far more serious than they thought.
Originally, the female ghost who came out of the Red Square was not very strong and IQ at first, but after absorbing the essence of eight people, her strength not only skyrocketed, but even her IQ became smarter.
originally wanted to get rid of the other party's plan, but now he can only stick to the temple.
Otherwise, the initiative failed, and the power of the incense was taken away by the other party.
At that time, the fate of the two of them will be miserable, and their Five Thunder Taoist Temple has always had zero tolerance for useless people.
Alas!
Thinking of this, the two senior brothers couldn't help but sigh at the same time.
"Hiss~~~"
Just when the two of them were worried, a horse bark suddenly came out of the temple gate.
When they looked up, they saw a young man about the same size as them with eyebrows like a scabbard, leading a yellow horse out of the darkness.
Looking at the young man, the faces of the two changed.
Because they saw that the two fires of life on the shoulders of this young man had been extinguished at this time.
