My heart jumped into my throat, and my steps slowed down again...
Seeing the figure getting closer and closer, when it was less than ten meters away from me, I saw clearly that it was not one person, but three people!
An adult was leading two children on his left and right. The backs of the three of them were all slightly stooped, as if they were trying to bury their heads in their chests, and they walked silently step by step...
It was at this time that I realized that the dull sound in the coffin behind me had stopped.
"Let's go!"
Tan Chen behind him urged.
"Don't you think the road is difficult?" I asked tentatively.
Tan Chen stretched his neck and looked forward,
"Isn't it just a little dark? Stop being so nagging and leave quickly!"
Only then did I realize that I seemed to be the only one who could see the three figures, and none of them behind me could be seen. Why was this?
My heart couldn't help but beat a few times. Master didn't let me do it yet, so I could only bite the bullet and keep walking forward. Thinking of this, I picked up the gong hammer and knocked it hard, and threw it away again.
A handful of paper money.
"Bang!!!"
The sound of the gong resounded with echoes on the empty mountain road, but the three figures were not affected at all and continued to slow down until they were right in front of me.
"It's so cold. Why is it so cold all of a sudden..."
Tan Xi's voice sounded behind me. I didn't bother to answer her, but stared straight ahead...
At this moment, the little girl on the right side of the figure suddenly turned her head, but her body did not move and continued to walk forward. Only her head turned from in front of her to behind her.
My heart sank and I didn't dare to look at her directly. Instead, I stared straight ahead, as if I didn't see her.
But despite this, I could still vaguely see her face from the corner of my eye. I couldn't see anything else clearly. I could only vaguely see a deep scar on her face...
Perhaps seeing no reaction from me, the little girl suddenly broke free from the figure's hand and floated in front of me with a "pop". She had a huge head but a very flat belly.
A pale little face suddenly came over, staring at me closely with a pair of dead fish eyes...
"Uncle...I'm so hungry..."
A childish voice came out of her mouth with a hint of coolness, but I clearly saw that her mouth didn't move at all!
"Uncle...I know you can see me..."
This time, her mouth suddenly opened and she smiled at me, revealing two rows of densely packed black broken teeth. At the same time, a stream of blood suddenly poured out from the scar on her face.
The blood flowed down her cheek and into her mouth...
For a moment, her mouth was filled with bloody foam, which almost stained her black broken teeth red!
Even though I was mentally prepared for this horrifying scene, I still couldn't help but feel weak in my legs and weak in my body.
I cried secretly in my heart,
"When can we take action?!"
At this moment, the figure in front suddenly quickened his pace and walked forward, and at the same time, a man's gloomy voice sounded.
"Xiao Xi, come back..."
When the little girl heard this, she immediately put away the weird smile on her face, glared at me bitterly, then returned to the figure in front, and held the figure's hand again.
After a short while, three figures drifted further and further away in front of me, and finally disappeared.
I breathed a long sigh of relief. At this time, a thin layer of sweat broke out on my forehead. I finally understood why I was the only one who could see them, and why the little girl wanted to scare me. They just wanted to test me.
Is he actually a mage?
Fortunately, I withstood the pressure, but when I think back to the scene just now, I still get a chill down my spine.
I couldn't help but quicken my pace and walked towards the grave...
Ten minutes later, the grave finally appeared in front of us. At this time, there were two people standing in front of the grave. When I took a closer look, I saw that it was Master and Granny Tan. Unexpectedly, they arrived first.
"Bang..."
The coffin bearers slowly lowered the three coffins. The master waved to them and said:
"Okay, you go back to the old house and wait..."
When they heard that they did not need to stay here, the eight coffin bearers immediately turned around and walked down the mountain.
I turned my head to look at the tombstone on the grave. I just noticed that this tombstone was a little different from the one I saw yesterday, so I was ready to take a closer look, but I was stunned when I saw it!
There are actually three tombstones erected on this grave!
There were words engraved on them. I couldn't help but take a few steps forward to take a closer look. The tombstone in the middle was engraved with "The tomb of my late father Tan Zhongting...died in September 1999."
Looking to the left and right,
"The tomb of my beloved son Tan Chen... died in September 1999."
"The tomb of my beloved daughter Tan Xi... died in September 1999"
"Buzz!" sounded, and I felt like my head was struck by lightning, and I was completely confused!
The two children in the coffin, a boy and a girl, turned out to be named Tan Chen and Tan Xi. Then these two people around me...
Moreover, the word "Yao" is used on the tombstone, which means that the two children were less than twelve years old when they died. I thought of the photos in the mourning hall and the figures I saw in the mountains just now. Indeed, they should have been only five years old.
Six years old...
I really wanted to ask Master why this was happening, but looking at the people around me, it was difficult to speak, so I had to endure it for now.
Master looked at Tan Chen and Tan Xi holding porcelain dolls with a sullen face, and said:
"Place the doll in front of the tombstone and kneel down!"
After hearing the words, the two people immediately obeyed. After placing the dolls, they immediately knelt in front of the tombstone with the same name as their own. The master stepped forward and placed a small porcelain bowl in front of each of them, and then scratched the bottom of their middle fingers.
From the fingertips, drops of blood instantly flowed into the porcelain bowl.
I frowned. As the saying goes, ten fingers are connected to the heart. Among the ten fingers, only the middle finger is connected to the heart channel, and the lowermost finger pad of the middle finger is closest to the heart channel. In other words, the master is equivalent to taking their heart blood.
!
After receiving less than half a bowl of blood, Master poured the blood on the heads of the two porcelain dolls, then turned back and shouted to me:
"Xiaoyu, the blood of all the Yin and Ten Spirits!"
I immediately took out a small porcelain bottle from my pocket and poured the blood of Yan Shiting on the two porcelain dolls. For a moment, the porcelain dolls' faces were covered with blood, plus the bright and strange colors on their bodies.
The color scheme and stiff smile immediately gave me the feeling that they were about to come alive.
At this time, Grandma Tan also came up, slowly knelt in front of Tan Zhongting's tombstone, and said slowly:
