I shouted softly. I was originally going to use the money to disperse them, but after thinking about it carefully, I still had questions that I had not asked clearly, so I threw out two red threads and wrapped them around the old ghost and the little ghost respectively. Then I pulled them hard, and the two ghosts screamed.
With a sound, he was pulled in front of me.
"Arch Mage, please spare my life..."
The old ghost changed his previous arrogance and kept bowing to me with fear on his face, while the little girl hid behind him and looked at me secretly.
I moved my eyes away from the girl and looked at the old ghost again,
"I saw you guys died not long ago, why didn't you go to the underworld instead of harming people here?"
The old man slowly raised his head and said tremblingly:
"We were also forced... My granddaughter and I are residents nearby and have always depended on each other. Not long ago, this place was demolished, but those evil-minded people actually demolished it by force. My granddaughter and I were beaten to death because we didn't have time to run out.
In the house…”
At this point, the old man's voice became even louder, and his granddaughter started to cry.
Because I had suffered from this old man before, I didn't completely believe what he said, so I took out the Yin-Yang Mirror from my backpack. When they saw me taking out the mirror, they immediately looked frightened and couldn't help but bow to me and beg for mercy.
"Arch Mage, please forgive me... everything I said is true..."
"Don't be afraid!"
I said something, wrote a spell on the mirror with cinnabar, and then used the mirror to shine at the two ghosts. Then when I looked in the mirror, I immediately felt uncomfortable all over.
The old man and the little girl in the mirror were covered in blood and flesh, and had no human appearance. Especially the old man, whose limbs had been broken, and half of his head was deflated. This is how they looked when they died. They were obviously crushed to death.
I hurriedly took back the Yin Yang Mirror and took a deep breath. To be honest, I really regretted seeing this scene.
"Then why don't you go to the underworld?"
The old man shook his head gently, and slowly raised his and his granddaughter's arms. I was suspicious, so I looked closely and found that both of them had a black rope on their wrists, like bracelets.
"After we were beaten to death, someone used a black rope to cast a spell to control our souls. Not to mention going to the underworld, not even the ghosts could take us away."
"What?! Who cast the spell on you?" I asked in shock.
"I don't know, we have only seen his back. He controlled our souls and asked us to use this century-old locust tree to attract other wise ghosts and some living people with strong yang energy. As for the purpose of doing this, I
I don’t know…”
"You said you've seen his back, what are the characteristics of him that people can remember?"
The old man thought hard for a long time, but finally shook his head, but his granddaughter who had been silent beside him suddenly spoke,
"I...I saw that uncle's nails were black..."
"Black nails..."
I mused, this is indeed a characteristic that can be remembered by people. No matter how you look at this person, he is an extremely dangerous person, and I don’t know why, I always feel that this person is similar to the person Huang Santai asked me to find.
relation…
I shook my head and didn't think about it for the time being. I took out two resentment-resolving talismans from my backpack and pasted them on the foreheads of the old man and the girl. I found that the talisman on the old man's forehead turned black, and the talisman on the girl's forehead had no trace.
change.
I have mixed feelings in my heart, I don't know whether I should be happy or sad.
The old man seemed to have seen what I was thinking, and he bowed to me repeatedly and begged:
"Grand Master... I don't regret dying when I am old, but my granddaughter begs you to let her go and let her be reincarnated. She has suffered too much in this life. She... she is only five years old..."
I slowly walked up to the old man and put my index finger against his ghost door.
"I promise you..."
After saying that, I poked lightly and inserted my index finger into his ghost gate. The old man's body began to twitch uncontrollably. I knew he was in pain, but there was a grateful and relieved smile on his face.
"Grandpa...Grandpa!!!"
The little girl hugged the old man's legs and cried heartbreakingly. I turned my head away and couldn't bear to watch this scene...
After the old man completely turned into black gas, the little girl sat on the ground blankly, staring at the empty space in front of her. I walked to her and cut the black rope on her wrist with a copper coin, and put a piece of paper on her forehead.
Soul Attraction Talisman, she never looked at me from beginning to end...
I sighed softly, my heart skipped a beat, I cut my fingertips and dropped a drop of blood on the soul attracting talisman. I pressed my palm gently on the talisman paper and kept repeating in my mouth:
"My name is Lin Yu...my name is Lin Yu...my name is Lin Yu..."
Finally, the little girl finally raised her head and glanced at me, then attached herself to the talisman paper and floated towards the north of the night sky...
Seeing the disappearing soul charm, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why are you doing this..."
A hoarse voice came from behind me. I looked back and saw that it was Lao Yutou. I don’t know since when I have become accustomed to his elusiveness, so I was not surprised by his appearance...
Lao Yutou came to my side and looked up at the night sky with me.
"You leave your mark on this girl's soul and let her come to you in the next life, but what if she finds you?"
I shrugged,
"It's not that great, it just makes me feel better."
"You..."
Lao Yu shook his head helplessly,
"Let's not talk about this for now. Are you afraid that you have forgotten the real thing?"
"What's the matter?" I looked at him suspiciously.
With a crisp sound of "Pa!", Lao Yu slapped me on the forehead.
"That ghost servant of yours! You won't save her?!"
"I'm going!"
I exclaimed and hurried to the locust tree. The cage of branches that looked like silkworm chrysalis was still there. I picked up the folding shovel and knocked it up. After a few minutes, all the outermost branches were finally broken off.
I took a closer look and saw a woman in a cheongsam huddled inside...
