Xuan Lu suddenly started eating people, could the cause really be their fault?
"Xuan Lu has been in the Howling Forest for so many years, and he has managed an army of evil spirits. I have even seen corpse puppets inside." Fu Liushan said, "He led the army during his lifetime, and he still led the army after his death, so I said
It is the soul of the general."
He Lingchuan said calmly: "He doesn't deserve it."
He has seen what a general's spirit looks like. In the past, after he and He Chunhua defeated Sun Fuping and Sun Guoshi in Panlong Ancient City, Commander Xiao and other Gale Army Spirits escorted them out of Panlong Desert.
He still remembered the treasured armor sitting upright in the red general's tomb when he killed the Tiangong Duyun envoy.
Dare you call yourself the soul of a general or an army soul? With this Xuanlu evil ghost, you deserve it?
"If it recognizes you, it will definitely come to take revenge on you." Fu Liushan said sternly, "You must be extremely careful, especially after nightfall."
He knew that He Lingchuan was not a fuel-efficient lamp, but people would always be negligent.
If you can only be a thief for a thousand days, how can you prevent a thief for a thousand days?
Dong Rui asked: "How can it be said that it is also a ghost? Can it be dispatched during the day?"
He Lingchuan knew the answer. In fact, it was possible, as long as external help was used.
For example, the soul-telling mirror in his arms actually contains many ghosts.
Sure enough, Fu Liushan said: "I heard that the ghosts and immortals in ancient times could directly resist the scorching heat of the sun's real fire. But I don't think Xuanlu can do this, so it is most likely to possess the ghost slave and be brought by it."
Move around by yourself.”
He Lingchuan concluded that the "ghost slaves" he was talking about were almost the same thing as the "mirror slaves" of the soul-capturing mirror. They were both living people being controlled.
Mrs. Li was controlled by the soul insect planted in her body.
"Take people's money to eliminate disasters for them." Fu Liushan said again, "No matter what, I will first clean up the brats nearby for you."
He Lingchuan walked out with him: "Xuan Lu is stingy and holds a grudge. You are going to get rid of ghosts in Rolling Stone Valley. Aren't you afraid that this big ghost will miss you?"
If he remembered correctly, Fu Liushan didn't even want to mess with the three-tailed demon fox.
"Xuan Lu broke the contract first. Besides, I am a lonely person. What weaknesses can it let it take advantage of? At worst, I will run away. Besides, this is not the Howling Forest. It will be strange if it can find me!" Fu Liushan straightened his expression.
"But he was not a good person during his lifetime, and he did not keep his promises after his death. There is nothing strange about it. He has been killing people recently. If he doesn't stop it, the whole place will become a ghostland."
"Why do I always end up doing thankless things lately?" He sighed and suddenly looked at He Lingchuan and Dong Rui, "Oh, it seems like it's been since I met you two!"
"It's just a coincidence." Dong Rui smiled amiably, "It must be a coincidence."
What a coincidence, it is clear that wherever the person named He goes, there will be trouble!
While talking, Fu Liushan had already grabbed the bell and walked around under the bushes, beside the river, and near the well in the village. He found that the bell would continue to jingle near the river, but the sound was weak.
"It's probably around here." After saying that, he found a sand nest with leeward side facing the water, and asked everyone to pick huge dripping Guanyin leaves nearby, lay them flat in the sand nest, and then put a few points on each leaf.
Drops of water.
Then, he drove away all the living people, leaving only He Lingchuan, Dong Rui, Jiang Lishui, and a few guards who were proficient in martial arts and strong in martial arts.
"The scent of living people is too strong, which will reduce the attractiveness of the bait." He said.
When everyone else was gone, he took out a few white candles, lit them, and distributed them to He Lingchuan and other companions.
"Hold it to your heart. This is called a heart-covering candle. Before the candle burns out, it can cover up the breath of living people, so that ghosts with shallow spiritual skills can't see you."
Everyone did as he was told.
Just as a gust of mountain wind blew by, Dong Rui screamed strangely: his candle was almost extinguished.
He wanted to hold up the barrier, but Fu Liushan stopped him and said, "No, these ghosts are more careful than sparrows. Once they sense a magical power nearby, they won't come out again."
Everyone had to choose a sheltered place and watch the candles carefully.
Fu Liushan walked to the sand nest, stuck a thick and straight bunch of yellow incense in the middle of the leaves, and lit it.
By this time the sun had gone down and the surrounding fields were dark except for the gurgling of the river.
The mist that comes from nowhere fills the trees by the river little by little, making people wet all over.
Jiang Lishui had something to say, but he didn't dare to speak out, so he wrote a few words on the sand:
A few days ago, there was a murder case by the water, and it was also foggy.
The fog gradually thickened, and the light became dim. After a while, the scenery two feet away was no longer clear.
Fortunately, for some reason, the little red light in the sand nest was smaller than the firefly, but it could still come out through the fog, illuminating the surrounding area with a halo of yellow.
Its aroma is also very peculiar, sweeter than sandalwood and richer than jasmine. After everyone smelled it for a long time, they kept swallowing their saliva.
hungry.
This feeling is very strange. Although I am not hungry, I really want to eat something.
Fu Liushan smiled at everyone and wrote the word "forbearance" on the sand.
This fragrance will stimulate the soul's desire.
Once the trap is set, all we can do is wait.
It was pitch dark all around, and several grown men were squatting in the jungle holding candles, looking eagerly at Gao Xiang a few feet in front of them... No matter how you look at this scene, it's not harmonious.
A quarter of an hour passed.
Two quarters of an hour passed.
Nothing strange happened at the river, only two frogs passed by and jumped into the water.
He Lingchuan yawned and simply took out backgammon and played with Dong Rui and Fu Liushan.
This wooden chessboard is foldable, well-made, easy to carry, and measures two feet square when opened.
Fu Liushan had never seen this thing before, so he came over to watch the two play chess. After watching a few games, he understood some of the rules and wrote down a few questions by hand.
He Lingchuan also answered questions by hand. Soon, Fu Liushan mastered the rules and tried to play chess.
Huh? The more you play, the more interesting it becomes.
Soon, he quickly grew from a novice to a bad gambler, and lost two days of food money from Dong Rui.
In this way, they slowly passed away two hours until midnight.
Fu Liushan's high-quality incense has been burned more than half, and the fallen incense ash has fallen on the leaves of the Dripping Guanyin. The fragrance is rich and the wind cannot disperse it. This high-quality incense is also specially made, and it can last for so long without burning out.
He was going to lose this game of chess again.
Alas, where is his drink money?
Fu Liushan was thinking hard about the chess game when the bell hanging on the branch suddenly rang again, this time with a series of jingles.
coming.
He immediately made a silence gesture to everyone and withdrew the money he had bet with a serious look on his face.
But after waiting for a long time, there was only the sound of wind blowing leaves around.
Dong Rui particularly wondered whether this guy was deliberately playing with the bell because he wanted to default on his debt.
Fortunately, the unusual movements by the river quickly proved Fu Liushan’s character:
Two things slipped along the river bank.
Except for He Lingchuan, everyone used cow tears to drop their eyes, and then they could see their true colors:
The two little devils have heads as big as buckets and a thin body. When they stand straight, they are only two feet tall.
The eyes are bulging and the mouth is full of fangs.
They came for Gaoxiang and walked very fast, but they couldn't leave any footprints on the sand.
But when they got to the edge of the sand nest, they became cautious and circled around the leaves of Dripping Guanyin.
They must be very greedy for the incense. Everyone can see them swallowing saliva.
Not long after, two more little ghosts floated over.
Then there were three more.
It seems that the Ghost King is in a hurry to take supplements. In such a small Jishi Village, there are seven or eight little ghosts wandering around.
Having too many companions doesn't seem to make them more courageous. They stare at the incense, just like sparrows coveting the millet in the dustpan. They want to eat it, but they don't dare to come close.
Fu Liushan also warned everyone in advance that the ghosts under the evil spirit Xuanlu would be more ferocious and cunning.
Otherwise, ordinary ghosts slowly absorb the essence of living people, how can they suck it clean in one bite?
In other words, they are more difficult to deal with.
Dong Rui gestured to Fu Liushan:
It took half the night to think of a way to get rid of it. It was late at night and the hem of his clothes was wet with heavy dew.
Fu Liushan rolled his eyes and took out a blower from his arms.
This thing seemed familiar to Dong Rui at first sight.
Sure enough, Fu Liushan gently pressed the blower, and the sound it made was the same as the sound of bells, which did not attract the attention of the little ghosts.
Another pale little ghost floated out of the tube, which was the "Diliuzi" he caught in Wuxian Town.
This place is far away from the burial ground of Ji Liuzi. As soon as it floated out, it wanted to go in the direction of the corpse, but it was attracted by Gao Xiang as it passed by. It twitched its nose a few times, then strode into the sand nest and approached Gao Xiang.
The fragrance keeps inhaling.
That look seems to be ten times better than when someone smokes.
As soon as it showed off, the other little ghosts immediately became restless and tried to move towards the sand nest.
Seems okay?
So they also came close to inhale the fragrance.
At this time the bell rang again, more urgent and clearer.
Fu Liushan wanted to get up, but then he suppressed it and squatted back down.
Soon, two more ghosts walked by the river.
These two were about the height of ordinary people, dressed in black robes, with sinister faces and twinkling eyes. They looked like they had some Taoism and were much stronger than those little brats.
They carried whips in their hands and carried sacks behind their backs.
Seeing the little devils gathered around Gao Xiang and having fun, the two big devils were very dissatisfied and whipped him.
Let you come out to work, not have a party!
Fu Liushan saw their movements and pressed his temples.
Not good.
Two whips came down, and the kid who was sucking heavily was suddenly woken up and ran away screaming.
But just when they were about to turn around, they found that their legs seemed to be stuck in the mud and they couldn't pull them out——
The water droplets on the Dripping Guanyin are stickier than any other bird glue, but any soul that gets on it will stick to it and won't be able to escape!
This is Fu Liushan's usual trap, and it's especially useful for imps with little intelligence.
But the two big ghosts were not so easily fooled. As soon as they saw the little ghost struggling, they knew they had fallen into a trap, and immediately roared and waved their whips, blowing a strong wind in the forest.
"Gan!" Dong Rui couldn't help but curse, because the strong wind blew out the heart-covering candle in one fell swoop!
There was no candlelight to hide their popularity, and they immediately appeared in the sight of the two big ghosts.
Fu Liushan also said at the same time: "Do it."
The three guards around Jiang Lishui had already grasped their crossbows and shot them as soon as they raised their hands.
