Chapter 385 [Department of Corpse Gate] 3,000 words
"Someone is coming, don't be afraid, there is no ghost."
Hearing some chaotic footsteps outside the house, I felt relieved, and then patted Erzhuzi on the shoulder to cheer him up.
He raised his head with tears in his eyes and was startled again when he saw the man lying on the ground. Fortunately, the aunt had already opened her eyes and asked weakly: "Why haven't you left yet?"
"We never left. If we left and didn't save you today, then my sin would be great."
I sighed and said softly.
Er Zhuzhu hurriedly helped his mother wipe the strange runes on her face, looking very anxious.
At this time, some villagers came in holding torches. When they saw us here, they were slightly surprised at first. Then they saw the aunt with runes drawn all over her face, standing at the front, and a big man holding a torch with a look of astonishment on his face.
He looked aroused, but then his face darkened and he said: "Burn her!"
"What are you going to do? My mother is not dead, so you are not allowed to burn her."
Erzhu stood up, ran to the big man, and beat him again and again, but the big man stretched out his hand to grab Erzhu and threw him aside like a chicken.
"Even if your father is here, he will burn her. She is possessed by a ghost and there is no way to save her."
The big man's face was gloomy and his tone was unusually cold.
I stood up, stared at the man who was about to come forward with my eyes as cold as ice, and whispered: "Do you want to burn him alive?"
The big man was stunned when he saw me blocking him. After a moment, he said: "No, she is really possessed by a ghost. This situation also happened in the village before. People who carried red letters on their backs died, but they are still alive.
Come here and bite people everywhere."
"Yes, burn her, burn her!"
Several villagers behind started to boo.
"It's ridiculous. How can a living person turn into a corpse? She wasn't bitten by a zombie. These are runes on her body. It's just someone using heretical techniques to cause mischief. These runes gather Yin energy. As soon as a person dies,
Only these runes will work. As long as a person has a breath of yang energy, they will not work!"
I opened my mouth to explain.
"Get out of the way, young man. You don't understand many things. There are many things in this world that you cannot explain. Although you are a tourist, your actions have already harmed Zaoer Village."
An old man who looked a little old started to persuade me.
"Uncle, you must save my mother. The worst I can do is return this hundred yuan to you, otherwise they will really burn my mother."
Er Zhuzhu got up from the ground, ran to me, knelt on the ground and kowtowed violently.
My face darkened, I helped him up and said, "The man has gold under his knees. Kneel to the sky and kneel to your parents. Don't do such stupid things, otherwise your uncle will be unhappy."
At this time, the big man came over to me impatiently and stretched out his hand to push me away, but he still stood there unmoved.
What a joke, let him touch me, I won’t mess around anymore.
The big man stared at me in surprise, then stretched out his hand to push me over. I snorted coldly, grabbed his wrist with five fingers like lightning, and pulled with a secret force. He was unsteady on his feet and was immediately thrown away.
.
I ignored them and squatted down and said, "Er Zhu, what did you mean when you said you saw a ghost just now?"
Erzhuzi finally came to his senses and pointed to a corner in the distance. Everyone followed their gazes and saw that the house was empty and there was nothing in that corner.
And I was a little surprised. The old man who reminded me earlier was sitting there, sitting on a bamboo and rattan chair, with his back to us, looking at the strange back. Suddenly, the bamboo chair began to shake and creak.
The sound of ahhh was indescribably terrifying.
"Uncle, have you seen the old ghost sitting there?"
Erzhu's voice rang loudly again, and everyone looked at the corner again in horror.
At this time, a gust of dark wind blew over, and the torches in their hands became flickering, scaring several villagers into screaming.
"It's just a little trick to cover your eyes!"
I saw a yellow talisman attached to the back of the bamboo chair. With a flick of my finger, a crystal light shot out and instantly shattered the talisman. The talisman was forced and the person on the bamboo chair appeared.
They walked over and saw clearly, and soon there was a strong smell of corpses.
"It's the corpse of an old ghost!"
One of the villagers exclaimed, and I looked out the window. The old man appeared outside the window, then nodded to me gratefully, and then disappeared again.
"Open the door, let the wind blow away the corpse smell, everyone hold your breath."
I walked over, spoke, and then walked to the opposite side of the bamboo chair and found that the old man was wearing a black robe, but he himself was only a skeleton.
After a while, the corpse aura dissipated a lot, and people gathered around him again.
"I recognize these clothes. They are indeed the clothes of the old ghost. No wonder the old ghost's body cannot be found. It turns out that the lame man hid it here. He has been dead for so long and has not been buried yet."
The old man spoke, his words full of sadness.
"This little brother, please don't take offense at how much I offended you just now. It's because I'm blind to the mountains."
The man I had snatched had a guilty look on his face and apologized to me again and again, while the second pillar's mother stood up with his help.
"Little brother, originally I thought you had gone down the mountain. In the evening I planned to go to my second aunt's house to sit back and pass by the lame man's house. However, my old habit recurred and I fainted. When I woke up, I was already dead.
Here, the lame man heard the noise you made when you came in and ran away from the back door."
The aunt said weakly.
"Where will it go?"
I asked.
"I guess he must have gone to the cemetery. When I was bored in the past, I would secretly follow him to see him. It's just weird. He just scared me and didn't want me to get close."
Erzhuzi said.
"Okay, you have settled the old ghost. Don't worry, it's fine now. There will definitely be no problems. Erzhu, please take me to the cemetery."
I spoke.
"No, Erzhuzi is young, will it be wrong to go to the cemetery so late..."
The aunt had regained some strength and spoke with some worry.
"Don't worry, he will accompany you too."
I pointed at the big man, because I found that he was strong and masculine. Most ordinary wandering ghosts would not dare to approach him, but Erzhu was born with the ability to see ghosts, although I didn't know if it was true.
Yin and yang eyes, because many children can see these things due to their horoscopes and young age.
Before leaving, I was a little worried, so I asked Erzhuzi to stretch out his hand, and then drew a golden curse to ward off ghosts. Then I gave him the spell and asked him to memorize it in case he needed it in case of emergency.
Because of the heavy snowfall, the night was particularly bright, and a pair of deep and shallow footprints appeared in front of us.
I sneered and chased him out, passing through a forest and arriving on a small slope.
At this time, Erzhu stopped me: "Uncle, we're here, this is the cemetery."
I stopped and found that the place we were standing on was a circular terrain. There were no trees for a hundred meters in radius. There were just snow-white mounds as high as a person high, covered with snow, which gave people a very weird feeling.
After counting these graves, I found that there were ninety-nine and eighty-one piles, no more and no less, arranged in some vague order.
Although I don't understand Feng Shui, this arrangement gives me a weird way, which makes me feel very uncomfortable, and there is a very sinister atmosphere around me. It's not caused by the snow, but a kind of
The kind of cold that can chill one's soul.
"I wonder which sect you come from. Can you come out and see me?"
I didn't dare to act rashly and spoke in a deep voice.
It was quiet all around, except for the wind blowing and blowing away large tracts of snow, or the occasional snapping noise made by branches unable to withstand the pressure of the snow.
Just when I couldn't hold my breath, a hoarse voice came out.
"Heir of the Corpse Sect, who are you? Could it be that the master of the sect ordered you to rush me?"
I was stunned for a moment and asked aloud: "The successor of Corpse Sect? In the magic world, I have heard of Yuandao Sect, Taiqing Sect, Wuliang Temple, Qingxin Guan, Yinfu Sect, etc., but why haven't I heard of Corpse Sect?
Did you say that?”
"It turns out we are colleagues, so forget it if you don't know. We are not in conflict with each other, so please don't bother me."
The low and hoarse voice sounded again.
"Come with me? I'm not your companion. Don't tell me that these eighty-one piles of graves are filled with corpses you refined. And I looked at the runes on the pillars and they were clearly gathered.
Yin Qi, do you want to refine living people into corpses? Who is the sect leader you are talking about? How do you do such a vicious thing? Since you are a member of the magic world, aren't you afraid of losing your life if it gets difficult?
.”
I said sharply.
The other party didn't speak again, not knowing what he was thinking.
And I am also thinking, is this Corpse Sect the same as the Green Bamboo Sect? If this is the case, then it is almost the Bone Demon Lord who is causing trouble, but the Bone Demon Lord’s minions are too wide, and I heard
Why does this person's voice feel a little familiar? It's like I've heard it somewhere.
"There is no other way. Everyone in our sect is under control. If we don't follow the instructions passed down from above, all my fellow disciples will die. Don't worry about it anymore. Just leave quickly. There is still one person left."
Then I will be done, it seems that this time I have to give up my own body."
The voice over there suddenly seemed to be filled with incomparable regret, and sounded faintly.
"To be honest, I have some connections with the magic world. If you can tell me who is behind the scenes, I may be able to help you and save your fellow sects."
I thought about it and spoke.
"There is no time. They will come to collect these eighty-one corpses tonight. If not, the entire Zaoer Village will die. If the goal is not achieved, all the people in the small town below the mountain will also die.
.”
At this time, a very tall figure wearing a gray coat appeared not far away.
I took one look at this person's face and was immediately shocked. How could there be such an ugly person? He had a big head, full beard, and a long scar on his face. I was shocked.
