Chapter Three
Yu Chen slept soundly.
As soon as the dream reaches the third watch, I wake up naturally.
The tired spirit has also recovered a little.
After getting up, he looked at the many paper figures in the room and put them away.
Only a paper bird that looked like a crow was left.
Because of the magic of paper horsemanship, Yu Chen has not yet fully tried it.
According to the book, even if you don't have magic power, you can still control the movements of paper figures with your spirit.
But now Yu Chen's spirit has not fully recovered, so he chose a paper crow that is relatively easy to control.
Following the method he had practiced countless times in the dream, Yu Chen closed his eyes and focused his mind on the paper crow.
Suddenly, a strange feeling filled my whole body.
At that moment, Yu Chen seemed to have turned into the paper crow. As the thought moved, the paper crow in his hand slowly flapped its wings and staggered away!
Flying over the old windows, over the messy tombstones, in the dark jungle, towards the lights at the bottom of the mountain!
This feeling is quite strange!
Yu Chen seemed to have truly turned into a bird, flying around the world!
But after a while, he felt that his "body" became heavier and heavier.
He also realized clearly in his heart that it must be because he was too far away from his true body and could not support himself.
With this in mind, just as he was about to drive the paper crow back, he suddenly heard a sound coming from the jungle!
Out of curiosity, Paper Crow turned his head and looked.
But among the dark vegetation, two figures were holding torches and groping forward.
By the light of the fire, Yu Chen could see clearly the appearance of the two people.
The first one is thin and thin, with a face full of flesh, and a scar from the corner of his eye to his chin, like a ferocious centipede, quite scary!
And the man behind him was extremely strong, like a high wall, but the look on his face was not very smart.
Yu Chen suddenly felt astonished.
He recognized these two people.
The thin one is called Dao Lian, and the tall one is called Da Zhuang. Both of them are well-known rogues in the county, and they often do things to bully men and dominate women.
It made the people miserable, but they had no choice but to join a gang called "Black Water". With their ruthless faces and brute strength, ordinary people were no match for them.
So even if I feel wronged, I have no choice but to break my teeth and swallow the blood.
But just a few days ago, these two domineering scoundrels finally caused big trouble.
Half a month ago, a silly woman came to Weishui County.
This woman is so demented that she can't speak clearly and can only smile stupidly at people.
Even if he is scolded and ridiculed by others, he will only giggle.
Later, some old bachelors discovered that this woman looked pretty good under her crazy disguise, so they became evil and brought her into the house, where they had a lot of fun.
Women are stupid and have no relatives or friends, so naturally no one cares about them.
Fortunately, those bachelors are still human beings, even though they have worms in their heads. After each act, they give women some food and some clothes.
It also allowed women to survive in the county.
Until three days ago, drunk Dao Lian and Da Zhuang forced the woman into the house.
That night, all I could see was the giggling woman wailing in pain all night long, and she didn't stop until the east turned white.
At dusk the next day, someone found a body under the bridge. He was covered in wounds, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he had no breath. Only then did he report it to the official.
If a human life is lost, even if it is a fool with no name or surname, the government cannot ignore it.
After some investigation, it was easy to find out the evil deeds of Dao Lian and Da Zhuang that night.
But when the people came to the arresting room, the two people disappeared, presumably they had escaped long ago.
This matter was told to Yu Chen by the corpse mover who moved the woman's body to Qingfengling.
Moreover, because Yu Chen witnessed the miserable situation of that stupid woman with his own eyes at that time, his memory was still fresh.
——That silly woman is still buried in Qingfeng Mausoleum!
Until now when I think about it, Yu Chen can only feel unbearable.
Is that more than just a tragic death?
It was like being subjected to extremely harsh torture from the storyteller’s mouth!
The body looked like a corpse, with its weak limbs violently broken by two drunkards. There was no good spot on its body, its jaw was dislocated, and its eye sockets were protruding. It died with its eyes closed.
Not to mention Yu Chen, even the corpse mover who was used to seeing all kinds of miserable deaths felt a chill.
Just when he saw two naughty Yu Chen dazed through the paper crow's eyes, the two people suddenly made a sound.
The burly Da Zhuang asked: "Didn't Master Six tell us to run for our lives? Why did we come up the mountain?"
The knife-faced man turned his head and glared at him, "Escape? You idiot, don't pay for your life, will you starve to death?"
Da Zhuang was puzzled, "CangChang...CangChang, let's just go and rob him. What are you doing here on Fengtou Mountain?"
"You know nothing!" Dao Lian snorted: "In normal times, it would be easy to break into someone's house and steal some money.
But now both of us are wanted. Once there is some noise, we will have no chance of escaping! Do you still dare to rob us in such a big way?
But things are different on this mountain. I know that there is only one kid looking at the graves in Qingfeng Mausoleum on this mountain. He is thin and small, has no relatives, and is still a criminal. Even if he is dead, no one will know about it in a short time.
!”
Only then did Da Zhuang suddenly realize, but he still had questions: "But what kind of money can this poor gravekeeper have?"
"Don't look down on the grave-watchers!" The knife-faced man sneered:
"This morning, I hid under the bridge and saw with my own eyes the gravekeeper going to Chunfeng Tower to buy some food! If he was destitute, how dare he run to Chunfeng Tower?
What's more, he has been selling paper figurines and scented wax in the mausoleum for so many years without any big expenses. He has saved some money, which is enough for us to escape!"
"Brother Dao is smart!" Da Zhuang grinned and rolled his eyes, "Just in time, we want to dig out that bitch and take another look."
"You son of a bitch, you are such a bastard!" Dao Lian laughed and scolded, but did not stop him. He just reminded: "Get down to business first!"
Needless to say, the important thing he said was to rob Yu Chen.
However, what the two of them didn't know was that a gray crow was listening to everything on the treetop above them.
Qingfeng Mausoleum.
Yu Chen opened his eyes and took a deep breath.
My heart is hard to calm down.
Originally, what happened to that silly woman made him feel sympathy for her.
Now these two murderers actually had the idea of visiting his grave?
Yu Chen's first thought was to report to the officials and have their heads fall to the ground at three quarters in the afternoon!
But then I thought about it, these two people were almost at the Qingfeng Mausoleum, and there was only one way to go up and down the mountain. If I went down to report to the official, I would definitely bump into them.
Isn’t that just throwing yourself into a trap?
Now, the paper-man technique that I have mastered is only superficial and has no divine power. I am afraid that I will not be able to deal with the two villains.
While thinking, an idea sprouted in the young man's mind.
He bowed slightly toward the mausoleum outside the door and apologized: "Girl, I have no choice but to offend you."
After that, he cleared the messy desktop with a wave of his hand, and that was it!
Under the dim candlelight, the young man's hands were like shadows, moving back and forth one after another.
Use bamboo strips as bones, yellow paper as flesh, paste as tendons, cinnabar as blood, and black ink as hair. The pen moves among dragons and snakes to outline the lush things!
Not long after, Yu Chen looked at the things on the table, concentrated his mind, and blew a breath!
In an instant, white smoke surrounded and a dim light suddenly appeared!
A figure in white floated out of the smoke and headed into the night.
Under the Qingfeng Mausoleum, the two rogues with sword-faced faces were approaching the mausoleum gate. They blew out the torches, stuck them into the white snow, and were about to break in!
But at that moment, Da Zhuang felt a chill in his back and subconsciously turned around to look!
Immediately, my whole body became stiff, my teeth chattered, and I couldn't make a sound!
Dao Lian stared intently at the brightly lit room of Yu Chen. He noticed Da Zhuang's strange movement and lowered his voice: "You idiot, what are you doing?"
Da Zhuang trembled all over, like chaff, he only bumped the knife's face stiffly with his elbow, but still didn't make a sound!
The knife-faced man turned around impatiently and faced a white face!
The face was as pale as paper, but the eye sockets were dark and hollow, covered in blood, with three feet of red hanging down, and the hair was disheveled!
It's as if you are blowing on him!
At that moment, an indescribable chill rose from the tip of Dao Lian's heart!
He backed away suddenly and stumbled to the snow!
That ghostly thing has fully revealed its true appearance!
The twisted limbs were extremely weird. His back was turned to them, but his head turned around to face them.
Doesn't that look exactly like the stupid woman who was tortured by them all night?
Approach slowly!
"ah!!"
"Ghost!!!"
At that moment, although Dao Lian and Da Zhuang were both scoundrels, they only dared to bully the weak. Where had they ever seen such a terrifying thing?
He was immediately frightened and ran away down the mountain!
The next day.
In the early morning, some people discovered the stupid-looking sword-faced and strong man on the snowy ground.
The two men were in a miserable state, covered with mud and snow, and bruised, as if they had fallen.
He kept mumbling.
"Ghost...there is a ghost...the ghost is coming..."
This unusual situation made ordinary people dare not approach it at all, so they immediately reported it to the officials.
Someone from the arresting room soon came and arrested the two scoundrels together.
But what puzzled many onlookers was that these two people showed no reaction even though they were caught. They were still just mumbling to themselves, shaking like chaff!
Later, this incident was also recorded by the storyteller, who made up a story and told it to everyone on the overpass.
It is said that they were two scoundrels who had worms in their heads and killed people. They were killed by the wronged souls for revenge, and they became demented and stupid.
Finally, a word of criticism, evil will be punished!
Chapter completed!
