Hearing the sound, Gu Xia also woke up and looked out the window sleepily.
The paper man's head moves.
Gu Xia's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Young man, is it the Guo family who has caught up with me?"
I said, "Not sure yet."
"Woof woof!"
The black dog barked several times and rushed out through the crack in the door.
The paper man quickly retreated.
I got up and opened the door, and there were seven paper figures gathered in front of the wooden house.
"Oh my god, how come there are seven."
I blurted out.
The pieces of paper on the paper man's body are in tatters.
You can see the iron wire and bamboo pieces inside.
The red and green colored paper has completely faded.
The body was also covered with weeds.
However, the figure of the paper man looks very lifelike, and it was made by a person who is proficient in paper-making skills.
The black dog looked down at them, staring at them mightily, grinning and yelling, and might jump out at any time.
"Little doctor, I always feel like someone is staring at me during the day, maybe it's these paper figures."
Gu Xia said with some worry.
Then, an unexpected scene happened.
The seven paper figures struggled a few times, tried to bend their legs, and knelt in front of me in a strange way.
They cannot speak.
This scene looks really weird.
"Black dog, be quiet."
I shouted.
The black dog's eyes rolled around and he was also a little stunned.
"What do you mean? Why do you kneel down to me?"
I'm a little confused.
The paper man cannot run by himself.
There must be parasitic souls in their bodies.
I've never seen them.
Why do you kneel down to me for no reason?
Gu Xia stared at the paper man for a while and said: "I think they must have seen you carrying the medicine box and healing the black cat. So I want you to heal them. Their condition is not very good.
, he might even lose his mind."
At this time, one of the paper figures offered a very large wild ginseng with both hands. It was very big.
Seven taels of ginseng, eight taels is a treasure.
This ginseng is expensive.
It seems that this means it should be treated as a medical fee.
"You really want me to diagnose their illness."
My jaw dropped in shock.
Weird and bizarre things happened one after another.
"Can you treat them?"
Gu Xia asked curiously.
I frowned and didn't answer her.
Grandma made three rules, one of which was not to treat the dead.
Later, after I subdued the Qingling, I brought back the ghosts of two injured children.
Grandma said I don’t have long to live, so I don’t need to keep this rule.
However, seven paper figures came at once, which was a bit beyond my capabilities.
The paper people didn't say anything when they saw me.
There was a friction sound between the papers, and a little paper figurine made a squeaking sound.
Gu Xia put in a good word for them: "Little doctor, their souls are sealed in the paper figures. This is breaking the rules of the Yin and Yang world."
"If you help them heal their wounds and send them on their way, it will be considered a great merit. The evil will not make it difficult for you."
Gu Xia looked at me.
"To tell you the truth, it's a bit difficult to have seven paper figures come at once. Moreover, being able to seal the soul into a paper figure is not something that ordinary people can do."
I said.
Lonely ghosts wandering outside will not be confined to paper figures for no reason.
In addition, the paper figures show superb skills.
There must be a powerful person behind this.
At this time, a burly paper man came over and gestured with his hands.
When he walked over, a strong Yin energy came over him.
I shuddered from the bottom of my heart.
"What do you want to say?"
I looked at it for a long time, shook my head and said.
"He seems to have said that as long as you save a few other people, he can work as your ox or horse, become your ghost servant, and work for you for three years."
Gu Xia stared at the paper man carefully and opened his mouth to answer.
He collects ghosts to work for himself. I have heard such rumors.
"Come here, I want to see the internal structure of your paper body. This way I can determine your physical condition."
I thought about it and said to the leading paper man.
The paper man was stunned for a moment and walked over.
I asked him to turn around and cut two pieces of paper with a knife. The inside was made of bamboo strips and wire.
There is a black mist at the center of my heart.
This mist is so evil that it looks like evil spirits condensed into the shape of a ghost's heart.
It's also mixed with a mysterious atmosphere.
"What is this black thing?"
Gu Xia asked.
"It's the ghost heart of the paper man. It uses secret techniques to collect the soul and condense it into the ghost heart that drives the paper man to run. However, his ghost heart is a bit weird, and I can't understand it for the time being."
I said.
Immediately, I thought of a terrifying witchcraft, the soul pulling technique.
Hit the soul on the paper man and use the evil spirit of resentment to pull the paper man to run.
It is the pulling of the soul.
I don't know the specific operation method.
But, it's very scary.
"Did you offend Bai Jiahe?"
I frowned at the burly paper man and asked.
In the entire Shisandong, there is a clever paper maker who can make such paper figures, and he is also a powerful wizard.
Maybe he has mastered the secret of soul pulling.
I heard my grandma talk about this man. The paper figures he made were so lifelike that he could trap the souls of his enemies in the paper figures and be tortured day and night under his command.
Rumor has it that the paper figures he made can run when they hit the ground. If they stand in front of you at night, they will look like a living person.
If it hadn't been for the passage of time, these seven paper figures would have been able to look real and fake.
This person is Bai Jiahe, the great wizard and papermaker of Lei Gongdong, one of the thirteen caves.
All the changes that happened to the paper man seemed to be the result of offending Bai Jiahe.
Unexpectedly, the paper man suddenly became excited, even more excited than the painting.
The torn paper all over his body made a clanging sound.
"He is Bai Jiahe."
Gu Xia frowned for a while and said.
When I heard this, my eyes almost fell to the ground.
Is he Bai Jiahe?
Then, why did he run into the paper man he made?
He also used soul pulling witchcraft on himself.
I checked with Gu Xia several times and finally confirmed that I was right.
Things sound more and more mysterious.
For a moment, I was both curious and at a loss as to where to start.
At this time, Gu Xia saw a slender silver needle on the paper man's head, and there was half a broken red thread on the silver needle.
"It shouldn't be a big deal if you pull out this silver needle."
Gu Xia asked me.
I took a look and nodded.
Gu Xia pulled out the silver needle.
The paper man's body was trembling, as if he was enduring extremely painful torture.
"ah!"
He groaned.
"I am Bai Jiahe, please save me and seven others."
He said in a sad tone.
The sound it makes is extremely cold.
It's like the sound produced by someone who has been soaked in ice water for many years.
"How did you become like this and why are you hiding in Chiyou Valley?"
I asked.
Bai Jiahe said: "Seventeen years... almost sixteen years ago... the seven of us went to Dushan via the direction of Chiyou Valley. However, when we got here, we were plotted and died here... Fortunately
At that time, I brought some paper figures with me."
What?
My eyes suddenly dilated.
"My soul fell on the paper man, and not long after I ran away... I was hit by a silver needle, and a black energy fell on us."
Bai Jiahe said helplessly.
Hearing this, I checked his condition again.
Hidden within the black evil aura in his heart was an evil aura that was extremely difficult to capture and sense.
There seems to be some movement.
My eyes suddenly lit up, it must be a mysterious Gu insect.
Moreover, I always feel that the breath of this Gu insect is somewhat familiar.
