After Su Yuan told these people the purpose and method of using rice, it was not difficult for the remaining three people to survive the ghost feast on the fifth day.
After all, three bowls of rice for three people were enough to last until the next day, not to mention that he had taken the initiative to clean up a wave of evil ghosts in the ancient house, artificially reducing the number of ghosts.
As for Su Yuan and Yang Jian, after hiding in the ghost realm, they completely ignored the remaining three people.
At this moment, Su Yuan did not block Yang Jian's senses, so Yang Jian could still clearly see everything that happened in the outside world. By dyeing rice with blood and feeding the ghost, he could temporarily stabilize the ghost's behavior and prevent the ghost from doing so.
Attack yourself again.
This method is very simple.
But if Su Yuan didn't say anything, even if he held rice in his hand, someone would still die.
"Since you want to save them, why bother?"
Su Yuan said calmly: "I didn't want to save them. Among those people, Zhou Deng is actually pretty good. Although there are some flaws in his character, they are probably due to the influence of the supernatural. People like him are
It would be a pity for people to die here. If they were left outside, they would at least be able to maintain the tranquility of a city."
"As for the messenger Eagle, he is not bad in nature, but he has no ability. He has been on the fourth floor and has not yet mastered the supernatural power. He can still use it after training in the future. As for Fan Xing, he is just selling face to the headquarters.
, but I just have some discernment, so don’t worry too much about whether you live or die."
If Fan Xing in the outside world knew about Su Yuan's evaluation of him, he would probably be ashamed. However, the ghost realm is isolated from everything, so he naturally knows nothing about what happened in it.
After listening to Su Yuan's explanation, Yang Jian shook his head and didn't say much. After all, it was just like what Su Yuan said. Although everyone discovered the rice together, the other party actually paid for the supernatural props, which are also the other party's.
The supernatural props made the process of taking away the rice smooth and there was no danger at all, so how to deal with it was Su Yuan's business.
He couldn't say much. If he didn't have the rice, he would be in trouble when facing those evil spirits in this situation.
You shouldn't die if you die, but the mission of delivering the message will most likely fail.
"Maintaining the ghost realm all the time must be a heavy burden, right? Are you sure you can handle it? Do you want me to do it instead?"
After all, the ghost realm is a supernatural ability that has always been maintained. Even aliens will not be able to withstand it. Although aliens are mostly the ghosts they control have already died, it does not mean that they are invincible.
Because even if you are a ghost, there is still the possibility of recovering from death.
Just like Yang Jian's father back then, Guimeng was hit by a bus and fell into a state of panic, but he has revived now.
"That's not enough. If you really can't hold on, I will naturally let you know."
"That's up to you,"
Since Su Yuan rejected his proposal, Yang Jian didn't take it seriously and continued to watch what was happening outside.
Seeing that there was no safety risk, the three people outside immediately felt relieved.
"Speaking of which, are these three bowls of rice enough to last us until dawn?"
Zhou Deng stretched out a hand, holding the white rice that looked like blue and white porcelain. He saw that the rice inside was stained with blood. At the same time, a ghost occasionally took away a grain, and then returned to the previous state that seemed to be trapped in the ghost realm.
The state of separation turned into a hazy shadow.
This scene has been repeated many times, and the three of them are all accustomed to it. After watching it for a long time, without any hidden safety risks, they will naturally feel a little bored.
"It shouldn't be a big problem. After all, there is enough rice. Judging from the current number of ghosts, it is completely enough for us to last until dawn."
Eagle also talked for a while and said: "It's unbelievable. We actually survived it. The burial on the first day, the vigil on the second day, the funeral on the third day, the condolences on the fourth day, and the ghost on the fifth day.
If we wait for another two days, we will probably be able to complete the task of delivering the letter."
"That's right, cheer up."
Fan Xing said casually. There was not much despair on his face, but more helplessness.
He probably feels helpless because he will become someone else's thug in the future. As a ghost controller and the person in charge, he has experienced quite a lot of dangers, but in the final analysis, it is just to solve the problem of the ghost's resurrection.
In terms of.
But now the problem of the ghost's resurrection has not been solved yet, and he has become the younger brother first, but the reality is really speechless.
But fortunately, Su Yuan has a big enough reputation, so it is not too shameful to take refuge in his subordinates.
Thinking like this, Fan Xing felt vaguely comforted in his heart.
"Then let's analyze the events on the sixth day first. According to the rules, the first day is the burial, the second day is the vigil, the third day is the funeral, the fourth day is condolences, the fifth day is the ghost feast, and the sixth day is
What? Is it time to be cremated?"
At this time, Zhou Deng suddenly said: "Where are we going to find a torch to burn the old man? After all, the dead old man is not an ordinary person. We shouldn't be able to burn him with ordinary torches, right? We need to use
Will-o'-the-wisp?"
Eagle shook his head: "It's too early to say this now, and the process of cremation is not something that existed in ancient times. The ancients did not like that, so it is probably not cremation, but I personally think that the sixth day should be
and reason together with the seventh day.”
Fan Xing said: "Do you have any ideas?"
"I'm sorry, I didn't think of it at the moment. I just vaguely felt that this was a direction for thinking."
Eagle said so. After all, he is not a person who is good at brain power. He can think of so many things, but he doesn't know how many brain cells have died.
"Hey, why do you think so much? Just ask the boss."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As he said that, Zhou Deng shouted: "Two big guys, what will the process be like tomorrow?"
No one could be seen in the empty back hall, but strange sounds could be heard.
"No need to guess, the sixth day is the funeral, and the seventh day is the day of rebirth, so the two hours cannot be on the same day. Tomorrow we have to carry this red coffin out of the old house and send the old man to the back
Bury them, where the tombstones are."
"Really? Boss, I don't have much education, don't lie to me! If you make a mistake in inference, someone will die. That old ghost is really going to revive, so he is not easy to mess with."
What Zhou Deng said is true. After all, the condolence situation on the fourth day was witnessed by all. The old man's gradually resurrected body suppressed a lot of ghosts and could not move just by virtue of his supernatural power. It was really terrifying.
If an accident does occur, Su Yuan and Yang Jian may not be in trouble, but they can't say for sure.
"Don't worry, there will definitely be a funeral tomorrow, because the seventh day is the day of resurrection. This is how the saying of the first seven resurrections comes about. If the order is disrupted, everything will be invalid. The message delivery task reminder must be in this ancient house.
Wait for seven days, and the seven days have been observing the funeral procedures since the first day of burial."
"This is the rule. The first few days were the most difficult. Now that many things have ended, there will be no mistakes in the remaining two days."
Su Yuan's words caused the three of them to fall into deep thought, including Yang Jian.
If you think about it seriously, it does make sense.
The steps have been basically completed, and the remaining funeral and the first seven days of rebirth just fill the seven-day gap, which also coincides with the special time of the first seven days.
"So, tomorrow we are going to carry this coffin away from the old house and go to the old forest behind for burial?" Zhou Deng said, touching his chin.
"I think this judgment should be correct, and it is finalized for now." Eagle said: "If there are any other ideas that can be put forward during the next period of time, we can discuss it again."
"Forget it, I have no objection."
"I have no objection either."
Fan Xing also said quickly, and then he looked at the red coffin on the side, and shuddered inexplicably, as if the next moment, the corpse of the old man in the coffin would revive and pop out.
After the discussion, the back hall fell into silence again. As time passed by, the ghosts in the ancient house also disappeared, leaving behind strange silhouettes.
Three bowls of rice combined are a lot.
It is enough for a ghost to take away only one grain of rice, so these three bowls can be used for a long time.
but.
After the previous ghosts disappeared, new ghosts poured in from the direction of the gate of the ancient house.
But it's not as dense as before.
Everyone was fighting, but no one died. It seemed that this was the only good news heard these days.
Time passed little by little.
Half an hour, one hour, two hours... In the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon of the fifth day.
There are fewer and fewer ghosts flocking to the ancient house.
Of course, there is less and less rice in the hands of everyone.
In the dark and cold ancient house, vague and strange outlines are crowded around, as if they want to engulf everyone here.
But these vague outlines of evil spirits cannot interfere with the living people in the ancient house.
It's like being in another world, unable to touch or touch each other.
In this way, this subtle state has been maintained. At twelve o'clock, the ancient house entered the sixth day. This day is called the funeral.
At the moment when the sixth day arrived, not only did nothing abnormal happen in the ancient house, but the evil ghosts were dissipating and gradually leaving.
Even the blood-stained rice seems to have lost its appeal to the evil ghosts at this moment. Unless they are very close, the ghosts in the ancient house will basically wander away slowly.
The crisis is slowly receding.
Su Yuan saw the vague silhouette of the evil ghost on the wall also leaving. The evil ghost was walking along the wall, all the way towards the outside of the ancient house, and finally disappeared in the patio. It seemed that he left here directly along the gap in the patio.
The blurry ghost figures are also dissipating, and these figures can be vaguely seen shaking, gradually scattering away.
Even supernatural interference is becoming less and less.
Although the Ghost Realm is isolated from everything, it is not completely absolute. At least some ghosts can still invade along the Ghost Realm. However, all the evil ghosts that invaded have been solved by the evil ghosts controlled by Su Yuan himself, so it has been
Everything was fine.
But now, not only are there no evil ghosts invading, there are no supernatural beings trying to invade the ghost realm anymore.
Without hesitation, the two men left the ghost realm directly and returned to the back hall.
Yang Jian peered at the surrounding movements with his ghostly eyes, and then made a conclusion.
Su Yuan said calmly: "It's normal for the ghost banquet to end and the ghosts to disperse. Then there will be a temporary rest time. You can have a good rest. Strictly speaking, midnight is safe, but it is also dangerous. It is safe because
The danger of the previous day will disappear, and the danger is that the new day will welcome new horrors."
It sounded reasonable, so Eagle immediately re-entered the room and took out all the backpacks of those people before. Those people were all dead, but now it was the people who survived that were cheaper.
There are sufficient supplies inside, including flashlights, clothes, food and water, as well as some emergency medical supplies. It will be enough to stay for another week, let alone two days.
It's just that no one wants to stay that long.
"Come on, come on, eat more. Eat and drink well. We're ready to go. Hey, there's also wine? That's really good."
"Bah, bah, crow's mouth!"
"...
A dog that can't spit out ivory from its mouth probably refers to people like Zhou Deng. However, after getting along with him for a few days, everyone has already become accustomed to his character, and they have become accustomed to it.
It's just a few stares at most.
Su Yuan and Yang Jian also ate something, and then they leaned against the wall next to each other motionless. Su Yuan's eyes were closed, and he looked as if he was asleep, while Yang Jian also had his eyes closed, but his forehead
But the last ghost eye was moving around restlessly, spying on all abnormalities and movements around it.
I have to say that people with many eyes are different. Even when they are asleep, ghost eyes can serve as a warning.
But it's very quiet today.
There wasn't even a sound of wind outside, let alone any weird knocking on the door.
The interior of the ancient house is no longer so cold.
Some weird auras have dissipated inexplicably, and even the ancient house is now a little brighter, no longer so gloomy, and even the darkness in the corridor no longer exists.
There was no movement in the rooms on the left and right, and the end of the corridor could be seen. Before, these two corridors were endless, and the same was true for those rooms.
In this way, time seemed to pass by little by little, and everyone present seemed to have fallen asleep. I don't know how long it took, but suddenly, a subtle creaking sound sounded, waking everyone up immediately.
The back door didn't know when it opened, as if it was blown open by the wind or artificially opened. When Su Yuan saw this, he said calmly: "Let's go, it's time for the funeral."
