Chapter 1896 Lantern Ghost
The old man had finished speaking, but the nerves of Liu Boyang, Old Cat, and the others were still tense. The atmosphere in the carriage was very depressing, and it seemed that even the temperature had dropped several points. "Drink some water." The Bai brothers saw everything.
Inside, Bai Xiaoping unscrewed the cap of the mineral water Liu Boyang gave him and threw it to the old man. The old man was not polite, and the sweet water slid into the withered trachea. Sure enough, he felt better. The old man smacked his mouth hard, and then
He bowed his hand to Bai Xiaoping.
"My master, who was the previous temple priest in the village, set foot in Luoying Village back then. He just wanted to find out the real background of the 'walking zombie demon' and whether there was any way to save that kind of thing. At that time,
We always thought that we would easily find out what happened once we got inside, but after we went in, we discovered that our previous thoughts were completely wrong." The old man smiled painfully, and there were too many things contained in the wrinkles.
.
"Oh, what do you say?"
"There is no way to convert him!" The old man shook his head helplessly: "Actually, I was timid at the time, so how could I dare to go to a place like that? Master went in alone, and I guarded the entrance to the village."
"I only remember that when the master came out, his face was pale, his cassock was messy, and he even lost his Jiuxi Zen staff. When he went in, he was a completely different person. At that time, he dragged me desperately, and I asked him what happened.
He didn't say anything. He just murmured: Devil, devil... When he got to the temple, he wrote a suicide note, asking me to take over as the temple's blessing, and seriously warned me that I must persuade the folks in the village not to go to that place again, it is not for the human world.
That place, that's a ghost market, that's the nineteenth floor of hell!" The scenes of that year were spinning in the old man's mind like a revolving lantern, as if it happened just yesterday. Unable to stand the mental horror, his only
His calloused hands had already squeezed the mineral water bottle into shape, and it was as wrinkled as his old face.
"Tai Shang Tai Xing, adapt to constant changes. Exorcise evil spirits and trap evil spirits, protect life and body. Wisdom is clear, and the mind is peaceful. The three souls are eternal, and there is no soul to lose!" Bai Xiaoping waved his right hand, dragging his black sleeve in the narrow carriage.
A semi-arc trajectory was made, and at the same time, the thumb and middle finger were interlocked to outline a mysterious handprint. A bright green light spot instantly enveloped the old man's head, clear and translucent, and the light spot was even more faintly mixed with rows of rows.
The difficult-to-understand ancient font is exactly the Taoist "Heart Purifying Mantra" used to calm emotions. As soon as this mantra came out, the old man who had just lost control of his emotions immediately felt that his heart suddenly became clear and clear, and he felt an indescribable sense of relief, just like the shoulder.
It was as if a heavy burden had been lifted from the bed. He felt the subtle changes in his heart. As a Buddhist, he also devoutly bowed to Bai Xiaoping to express his gratitude. Bai Xiaoping waved his hand, as if he didn't want to see it.
Too much red tape.
At this moment, Cui Guodong suddenly said: "Old man, we can only bring you here. We have to turn when we get to the front, but Daquan Township is going straight. The rain has lightened up now, you can go back by yourself."
Everyone then looked out the window. They were too busy talking just now and didn't pay attention to the weather outside. The heavy rain that had been pouring down now became very small. It didn't stop, but it was a steady patter, which did not hinder people's walking.
.
Seeing Liu Boyang and Lao Mao getting out of the car and kindly opening the car door for him, the old man waved kindly and said: "I talked a little too much today, but I have no ill intentions. Thank you for taking me on this ride. Then
I'll go back. I hope you, noble people, can turn bad luck into good luck!" After saying hello, the old man held an umbrella and disappeared among the fields, leaving only a few people in the distance.
The flame of the oil lamp proved that there was still life here. The surrounding fields, distant mountains, nearby villages, and mounds were all hazy in the dark night.
Liu Boyang stood outside the car in the light rain. He looked up at the sky. He saw a thick ink-like sky. There was not even a crescent moon or a star. The wind blew from the woods on both sides of the road. It was extremely desolate, and the floating sand grains were rolled up.
, hitting the car window directly, making a rustling sound.
"Brother Yang, less than ten miles ahead is Luoying Village. We can't go any further. Let's stop here." Cui Guodong also got out of the car and looked into the dark distance and said.
"Okay, pull over and park the car. Let's stay in the car overnight and talk about it tomorrow morning." Liu Boyang sighed softly, opened the door, and the brothers returned to the car.
Cui Guodong drove the van forward along this winding mountain road for a few meters, and then stopped by the side of the road. There was a street lamp with yellow light nearby. Although the illumination was not clear, it was better than nothing.
, after the people in the car had something to eat, they had nothing to do and were not in the mood to talk, so they all closed their eyes and rested their minds.
Everything around them was very quiet, except for the sound of light rain. Cui Guodong and Enying opened part of the front and rear windows of the car respectively. This was to avoid accidents when they fell asleep, because the air in the closed compartment was not circulated and there were harmful gases.
Too much can easily cause suffocation.
Maybe it was because of the long journey that everyone was tired. After closing their eyes for a while, everyone fell asleep one after another. Even the Bai brothers fell asleep, and Enying huddled in Liu Boyang's arms and fell asleep.
I don’t know how long it took, but it rained heavily again. The sky and the earth were as black as a sheet of ink. The street lamp that was originally extremely dim turned slightly white, and then the light bulb seemed to suddenly turn into something that belonged to a wealthy family in ancient times.
The kind of white lanterns hung during weddings, the light is pale and pale!
The faint night wind blew through the leaves of the woods on the roadside, making a "rustling" sound.
Suddenly, Liu Boyang, who was sleeping soundly, trembled because he felt an inexplicable chill in his body, as if he had suddenly fallen into a cold ice cave. He turned around and looked to the side. The window was open. Could it be because of the raindrops drifting in?
Already?
At this time, everyone in the car was still asleep, and Liu Boyang didn't want to make too much noise to wake them up, so he carefully tried to close the window. But at this moment, Liu Boyang suddenly perked up his ears, and he seemed to feel something unusual.
Listening carefully, something is indeed wrong, there is movement outside!!
The sound of wind? The chirping of birds? No, none of them are right!
Liu Boyang differentiated it for a long time, and finally remembered that this was the sound of the bangzi when people in ancient times struck it!
But how is this possible? In what age is this, how can anyone knock on the clapper to update the clock?
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
"It's three o'clock in the night, be careful of the candle!" A sinister tune slid over slowly with the night wind, and got into Liu Boyang's ears. It trembled and trembled. The sound was like a saw blade, which made people's hair stand on end.
This sound cannot be made by humans!
In an instant, the cold air penetrated directly from the soles of Liu Boyang's feet into his brain.
Hearing the sound, Lao Mao and Cui Guodong also woke up suddenly, but Enying and the Bai brothers were still sleeping soundly, without any sign of opening their eyes.
The three brothers were all frightened by this sudden situation. They didn't dare to breathe. They carefully turned their heads and looked outside. They saw a row of green shadows on the dark mountain road, illuminated by the pale lights, coming from the opposite side.
Slowly and faintly passed by.
Will-o'-the-wisp?
Is this what science says is the scene after the phosphorus in the bones spontaneously ignites?
But the three brothers looked at it intently, and their blood suddenly ran cold!
Oh my God, those are not will-o’-the-wisps! They are a row of pale green lanterns in a vertical row, slowly moving this way in an orderly manner!
If you look closely, you will see that the group of people holding lanterns are all wearing colorful silk and satin shrouds. They are walking with small steps and bumps. What is particularly strange is that when they walk, their feet are floating on the ground.
In mid-air, it didn't touch the ground at all!
