Seeing this, I quickly closed my eyes and calmed down to feel...
…
After a few minutes, my heart started to lift little by little, because I couldn't sense the existence of this couple's souls!
There are only two possibilities for this situation, one is that the soul has gone to the underworld to be reincarnated, the other is that the soul is trapped somewhere and cannot be discovered by the soul-chasing curse.
The first option is definitely impossible. If you have already reincarnated, it is impossible for so many people to die in the town, but if the soul is trapped, logically speaking, it should not be able to come out to harm others.
Just when I was at a loss what to do, a strange sound suddenly came from outside the door...
"Creak...crack..."
It feels like rubbing your hands back and forth on the glass, which sounds very uncomfortable.
"What's the sound?" Old Yu muttered.
I withdrew the Soul-Chasing Curse and stood up in confusion and walked to the door. Lao Yutou had already opened the door a crack. We both looked at it at the same time, but at this glance, my pupils shrank suddenly!
I saw that the small street outside the house was densely filled with red and green paper figures. Each of these paper figures was more than half a person tall. They were clustered on the street, standing straight and facing the same direction, as if they were in the middle of nowhere.
Looking at something, and seeming to be waiting for something.
Their pale faces were painted with two balls of red rouge, and each paper man had red eyes and lips dotted with cinnabar, making them look very lifelike...
At a glance, I really thought there were living people wandering around in the dark night...
Lao Yu closed the door with his head, then turned off the light, touched the darkness, breathed heavily, and cursed in a low voice:
"What the f*ck is going on? Why are there so many paper figures?"
"Is there a paper shop in town?"
I asked Lao Xu nervously.
"No…"
Lao Xu and Lao Dao laid the body flat on the ground, walked to the window suspiciously and took a look outside, but were immediately frightened and sat on the ground against the wall.
"This...these paper figures don't look like ordinary paper figures..."
The old Taoist said with a panicked expression.
I rolled my eyes at him,
"You don't need to tell me this, otherwise they wouldn't blatantly come to the world to pass by at night!"
"Coming to the underworld to pass by? What do you mean?"
I calmed down my nervousness and said:
"To me, these paper figures don't look like driven evil spirits, but rather like ghosts possessing them, because their expressions are so lifelike! They are almost no different from living people!"
Having said this, I can't believe it myself. If this is true, then there must be an expert behind them. This method is similar to how Master borrowed hundreds of ghosts from the underworld.
"Creak...crack..."
Just as we were talking, the weird sound suddenly sounded again. My heart sank and I looked around again. I was horrified to find that all the paper figures had gathered in front of the door of the tile-roofed house where we were.
The pair of blood-red eyes were staring at the door, and the small mouth on the face was slightly lowered, which made people's scalp numb.
I hurriedly turned my head back, and my mind went blank. Could it be that they were attracted by the lights in the previous room? Or was their original target us?!
"broken!!!"
Old Yutou, who had been silent until now, suddenly lost his voice and said.
I was startled by his sudden voice and asked angrily:
"What's the matter?!"
Lao Yutou stretched out his hand and pointed at the two corpses lying on the ground.
"I guess the paper figures outside the door must be coming for them!"
When he said this, I was startled at first, and then suddenly realized, yes, just like Master used the Hundred Ghosts to find me, the other party was also using the Hundred Ghosts to possess the paper man to find the corpse!
"Then...then what should we do now?" Lao Xu's voice was trembling.
Although they should be just some ordinary ghosts with low cultivation level, there are too many of them, not to mention that if they are discovered, they may attract something more terrifying. After all, this is the main street of the town, and there are many people living there.
If someone really attracts something else, it will be difficult to handle.
I lowered my head and pondered...
Lao Yu pressed his head against the window and urged:
"It's getting closer! Find a way quickly!"
"Yes!"
I snapped my fingers, then took out two red cloths from my backpack and handed them to Lao Xu and Lao Dao, asking them to help wrap the body. The two of them took the red cloths and started working hurriedly without asking why.
I dug out all the glutinous rice flour I had with me, sprinkled it evenly on the red cloth on the body, and then drew two hidden energy charms and pasted them on the forehead of the body.
Whether it is ghosts or evil spirits, they must be looking for corpse aura when looking for corpses. The red cloth has been soaked in magic medicine and can isolate the aura. The glutinous rice can specifically overcome the corpse aura. The Hidden Qi Talisman can hide the aura.
Because ghosts have keen perception, for the sake of safety, the three must be used at the same time. This will definitely cover the corpse energy of the two corpses. If the paper man outside the house really comes for the corpse, then I believe this
The solution will definitely work!
After doing all this, I turned around and saw that the window was crowded with people, the windows were covered with paper faces, and pairs of red eyes were staring at the room, filling me with a sense of oppression.
The whole house…
All the living people in the room held their breath and stared at the windows and doors. I put my hand into my backpack and grabbed the three-soul magic bell, preparing for any accident that might occur at any time.
After a stalemate like this for a few minutes, there was another "creak" sound outside the door, and then I saw the shadow on the window moving slightly, and then slowly turned around one after another, and the shadow flickered.
Withdraw to the distance...
I bowed to the door and opened it secretly. I saw all the paper figures in the street wandering away. I rolled my eyes and suddenly an idea came to me!
Then I pulled out the red thread and passed it through the square hole of a copper coin. I flicked it and the red thread accurately wrapped around the waist of a paper man. I pulled hard and dragged the paper man into the house.
Everyone was startled by my move. I didn't bother to explain, and hurriedly drew a Kawasaki seal on the paper man's face with a cinnabar pen. The paper man immediately deflated like a deflated rubber ball.
At the same time, a figure slowly floated out from the paper man...
