Chapter 1761 A poor family, a rainy day, a man digging a grave, a dead person to worship, a mother-in-law
Lengkengtou
knock--
Knock knock——
In the dark of night, the old wooden door on the fence wall was knocked continuously, breaking the tranquility of the thick liquid.
There were fences and courtyard walls, thatched huts, candlelights dancing calmly and charcoal burning, but no one answered and came out to open the door.
No reflection of human figures could be seen through the window paper.
Everything is so peaceful.
It's like a thousand-year-old ancient pool in the deep mountains and old forests. No matter how windy or rainy the outside world is, or the leaves are swaying, it is always quiet. On the contrary, if you stare at it for a long time, it will give you a slight chill.
knock--
Knock knock——
Someone kept knocking on the old wooden door of the courtyard wall, but the inside of the house was always as calm as a thousand-year-old ancient pond, and then the knocker outside the courtyard door kept knocking.
As time passed by, the knocking on the door never stopped. It not only knocked away the tranquility of the night, but also made people upset, as if there were mosquitoes buzzing in their ears.
Knock, knock, the knocking on the door is still going on. According to this attitude, Dayou keeps knocking on the door.
You could say this person was polite, but he was very polite. He knew that he needed the owner's approval before he could open the door and enter.
If you want to say that this person is rude, it is indeed very disrespectful. There is no one who keeps knocking on the door. If no one comes out to open the door, it means that the host does not welcome you or there is something going on at home and it is inconvenient to receive outsiders.
After another stalemate for another tea, there was finally movement in the room. First, the candle flickered a few times, as if someone was moving around in the room, causing the air to flow. A black shadow suddenly lay behind the window paper and faced the courtyard door outside the window.
Look in the direction.
But the blame lies here. How can anyone look out through the closed doors and windows to see what's going on? With such a blocked view, what can be seen?
However, through the outline of the figure reflected on the window paper, outsiders could see that he was a stocky man of short stature.
At this time, the knocking on the door continued, and the figure lying behind the window paper left after a while. Soon after, the sound of wood chips rubbing against the moving door latch of the house was heard, bang!
The door of the house was pushed hard from the inside. Because of the excessive force, the door panel hit the earth wall heavily, implying that the owner of the house was very angry now and he opened the door angrily.
A man was shrouded in the shadow of the night. Instead of lighting a lantern, he quickly walked to the courtyard door with a hoe in his hand. Just when he roughly opened the courtyard door and was about to wave the hoe angrily, he saw clearly that the person knocking on the door was a man.
The ghostly headless Taoist priest suddenly stiffened, and the hoe in his hand was stuck in the air, and he didn't dare to knock it down for a while.
Is there anything more weird and evil in this world than being knocked on the door by a headless Taoist priest in the middle of the night?
No matter how big the anger was, it was extinguished in an instant. It was cold from head to toe, and I felt a chill rising from my back, and the hairs stood on my head.
At this time, the headless Taoist priest bowed to the man standing in the shadow of the door frame with his hands and fists. The muscles on the man's face trembled a few times. It looked like he was frightened by the headless Taoist priest who came to the door in the middle of the night. His body remained frozen in place.
There was no movement for a long while.
The patter--
Just at this moment, a drizzle fell from the sky. The drizzle was accompanied by a slanting wind. The wind and rain hit the two people under the courtyard gate. The cold rain wet their faces. The man woke up with a cold shock, and then threw the headless man away.
Taoist priest, run into the house in the rain.
Looking at the hurried look, one could not tell whether it was because he was rushing to avoid the rain, or because he was guilty of digging up graves and robbing corpses, and mistook the headless Taoist priest for a midnight ghost knocking on the door to demand his life.
The headless Taoist priest crossed the threshold, closed the courtyard door, bolted the door, and then followed the man's back toward the house.
From beginning to end, the two people never exchanged a word.
The person knocking on the door in the middle of the night and knocking on the door in an endless cycle is naturally the headless Jin An from the Wu Zang Taoist Temple.
Headless Jin'an followed behind the man. On the way, he raised his neck and glanced at the six soul marks in the sky, and then looked at the back of the man, feeling a little clear in his heart.
The owner of this house, from the time he left home until now, has not noticed the soul mark floating on the roof. It seems that he has not realized that his home has been targeted and marked.
Naturally, the soul mark can only be seen by the soul.
The other party's family is just ordinary people, or they have cultivated some skills and have some Taoism, but if the soul does not leave the body, they cannot see the mark of the soul.
Of course, other possibilities are not ruled out. This is not a normal world to begin with, and many places cannot be judged by common sense.
I just want to say that the first two conjectures are the most likely.
However, he was still most interested in the immortal corpse. He wanted to see with his own eyes what the immortal corpse looked like and if there was any chance of grabbing it.
Anyway, this family is capable of digging up graves and stealing corpses, and they are not kind people, so it is very reasonable for them to snatch corpses, without any moral pressure in their hearts.
The man rushed into the house with a hoe in hand, bang!
He closed the door hard.
Phew, he just breathed a sigh of relief and turned around, only to find that Headless Jin An had followed him in at some point and was standing behind him without moving.
In the eyes of outsiders, Headless Jin An stood still, but in fact, Headless Jin An took stock of the layout of the house as soon as he entered the house.
There was an oil lamp and two candles burning in the room. Although it was not very bright, it was enough to see clearly the environment in the room, and the man's appearance was finally fully visible.
This is a farm man whose skin is dark and rough due to years of hard work, exposure to the sun and rain. He has a very stocky body and a pair of strong arms.
However, this person's face is not good, his facial bones are too hard, his face is full of wrinkles, he has been working hard all his life, and he also has a crooked mouth and slanted eyes. At first glance, he seems to be a little scheming, but he is all clever and clever.
There was an Eight Immortals table in the room. Sitting beside the Eight Immortals table was an old Taoist priest. However, the old Taoist priest was covered in mud and his robes had a lot of blood stains. Even the jade Taoist crown on his head was half broken, and half of his hair was hanging down like a ghost.
, hanging down to the waist.
The old Taoist priest sat with his back to them and did not see the front.
Tick-tock——
Tick-tock——
Black blood was constantly dripping from the old Taoist priest's body to the ground.
The two candles he saw before were standing on the table in front of the old Taoist priest. At the same time, there was a bowl of uncooked rice with incense sticks on the uncooked rice, green smoke curling up, and several plates of fruit. These were all
It is a tribute used to worship the dead.
Looking at the dirt on the veteran Taoist priest's robe, no need to guess, this must be the corpse of the stolen corpse, that is, the immortal corpse marked by Yuanshen.
However, looking at the back, there is really no trace of the immortal aura, only that he died in embarrassment.
There are several rooms in the house, and the door of one of the rooms is covered with yellow evil charms. There is also a hidden compartment under the door, which looks like it is used to deliver meals.
But the focus of his attention was still on the immortal corpse. Just when he wanted to take a few steps forward to see the front of the immortal corpse, bang!
The sudden sound of his body hitting the door temporarily distracted him. He searched for the sound and found that the sound came from the room covered with yellow symbols.
A poor home, a rainy day, men digging graves, worshiping dead people, a cold bed without a mother-in-law, a haunted room, an environment that emits a complex and strange smell... This is really a dangerous place worthy of the name, and the mark of the soul is not deceiving.
