There was no one in the deep street, but the laughter could be heard. I took a deep breath and turned to Yunfei and said:
"You meet me here, I'll go in alone first and take a look..."
Yunfei grabbed me,
"Where is your mahogany sword?"
"Don't mention it, I was slapped off. I'll tell you more about it later."
"Wait a minute..."
Yunfei turned around and walked to the other side of the road, took out a long wooden box from his car, walked to me and handed it to me.
"Wan Chen spent a lot of money to buy this. It was given to me. I don't have any use for it, so I'll give it to you."
"oh?"
My mouth opened in a round shape, and I didn't ask any unnecessary words. I opened the wooden box gently, and my eyes suddenly lit up!
I saw a sword lying quietly in the wooden box. The sword's body and hilt were made of copper coins with square holes. The square holes on each copper coin were strung with red threads. I gently put my hand on it.
He went up and stroked the hilt of the sword, and suddenly felt a clear breath.
"Copper coin sword?"
Yunfei shook his head helplessly,
"It's not a copper coin sword, it's a money sword. Although it's not a superior magical weapon, it's much stronger than your peach wood sword. With your current strength, this money sword is just right."
I rolled my eyes at him,
"Are you praising me? Or are you hurting me?"
As I said that, I took the money sword in my hand and waved it a few times, then put it in my backpack. I felt that the weight was appropriate and it was very handy.
"Okay, I'm going in, you are here ready to meet me at any time!"
After saying that, I walked into Rouge Street...
As soon as I stepped into the street, I felt a thick damp smell permeating the surroundings, like the musty smell emanating from an old house after it rained. It was a completely different world from the main road where I was standing on the street.
I couldn't help but look back. Yunfei was still standing under the street light. When he saw me turning around, he waved to me.
I decided in my heart, turned around and continued walking forward. The dilapidated small buildings on both sides of the street passed by me one after another. I stared at the road under my feet and the windows of the small buildings on both sides with vigilance. I don’t know how long I walked.
There was still darkness before my eyes.
The surroundings were eerily quiet, as if even my walking echoed.
I frowned. I had been walking for more than ten minutes at least. Why haven't I reached the end yet? Is this street that long?
And since I walked into the street, the bursts of women’s laughter seemed to have disappeared...
I looked back again and saw that the lights at the intersection and Yunfei had disappeared, already buried in the pitch-black night.
"Something's wrong..."
I muttered something in a low voice, and the things around me were constantly changing without repetition, which meant that this was not a ghost beating a wall...
Thinking of this, I took out a piece of plain gauze paper and a bamboo stick from my backpack, folded the plain gauze paper into a small lantern, held it with a bamboo stick, then put a short candle into the wick, and used
Talisman fire ignited…
"puff"
The lantern lit up a faint flame. I lowered my head and looked at it. It was just enough to faintly illuminate a distance of one meter around me.
I took a deep breath, raised the lantern, and slowly raised my head. Suddenly! A woman's smiling face flashed past under the light of the lantern. I was stunned at first, then my whole body trembled, and I subconsciously took a few steps back.
.
"Holy shit!"
I held my chest and gasped for air. I looked up and saw that the place where I was standing before was empty and there was nothing. I couldn't help but slowly moved forward a few steps and slowly raised the lantern to shine at the previous location.
…
As expected, that woman’s smiling face appeared again!
I took a closer look and found a woman wearing a red cheongsam standing in front of the lantern. She was standing there swaying, holding a red square scarf in her hand, and her livid face was smeared with thick rouge.
, looks extremely weird.
But the strange thing is that she didn't move, she just stood there like a dead person, with her eyes in a trance, as if she was soliciting passing customers...
I was horrified that I couldn't even see her with my eyes open. What on earth was she?
After pondering for a moment, I suddenly thought of something, so I took a few steps back while holding the lantern, and the woman disappeared...
"Could it be that only the light of fire can reach them?"
I hid the lantern behind my back, walked a little further, looked at the empty surroundings, and then took the lantern out from behind and swept it away. As a result, I was completely stupid at this sight.
Under the reflection of the lantern, another woman with a livid face and heavy makeup appeared next to me. I was surprised and walked to a two-story building on the street. After much hesitation, I raised the lantern and slowly approached it.
A dark window without glass...
Under the illumination of candlelight, I saw a woman in green sitting in front of the originally dark window. Her face was very stiff, her mouth was slightly grinning, and she looked like she was smiling. I have never felt that a woman's smile
It will be so permeable.
"What the hell is this place?!"
I put down the lantern and cursed in a low voice. A cool breeze blew by, and I suddenly felt something was wrong. I raised the lantern again and approached the window, but suddenly I found that the woman in green who was sitting in front of the window laughing was gone...
A chill ran down my back, and I quickly made a seal with one hand and turned around to take a photo.
"Yin and Yang are infinite, and the universe borrows its law!"
Following my soft drink, the seal was slapped on the forehead of a woman. It was the woman in green. She appeared behind me in the blink of an eye without anyone noticing.
"Um…"
The woman let out a muffled groan, and then turned into a puff of black air and dissipated.
I took a deep breath and felt like I was in some kind of strange environment. The reason why I said it was strange was because I couldn't detect any abnormality at all without the lantern, but in fact I was caught by some kind of abnormality.
surrounded.
I forced myself to calm down and thought about ways to get rid of it...
After a few minutes, my eyes lit up, and I suddenly thought of something, so I immediately took out the incense burner from my backpack and placed it in the middle of the street, and then poured out all the incense candles in my backpack...
Along the direction of the street, place the incense candles on the ground one by one in a row. Each incense candle is equally wide apart and exactly in line with the incense burner.
After preparing these, I returned to the incense burner and sat cross-legged on the ground. I took out a magic talisman, soaked it with a small bottle of sesame oil, lit it and threw it into the incense burner. After more than ten seconds, the talisman fire was still burning...
I stretched out the index and middle fingers of my right hand and quickly put them into the incense burner to hold the talisman fire. I raised my hand to draw the word "游" in the air and read aloud:
"The sky is blue and the emperor of the earth is ordering the evil spirits to come to the altar and capture the souls without any leisure. You must listen to the third watch, and you must do it even if the fourth watch calls you! Break!"
As soon as Po Zi was shouted out, the row of incense candles behind the incense burner suddenly lit up with weak candlelight. After a while, the flickering candlelight slowly turned into a faint green, followed by people dressed in colorful clothes.
Women in colorful cheongsam and heavy makeup slowly gathered from the darkness to both sides of the incense candle like puppets...
They stood in a line for a long time, and I looked at this scene dumbfounded. I didn’t expect that there were so many people!
Looking back along the line, I was surprised to find that a house had appeared at the end of the line. There was a plaque hanging on the lintel of the house, with three big blood-red characters written on it:
