Chen You quickly adapted to the light in the dark room.
He looked around cautiously, knowing very well that there were dangers here and he had to be careful.
Although he didn't come here just to break up with Ah Jiu, Ah Jiu is not a fool.
If Ah Jiu really just killed Uncle Dong, and he comes to visit now, with his special status, it will only make Ah Jiu feel that the matter has been exposed.
Is it possible for Ah Jiu not to do one thing and not stop doing the other thing?
This may still be quite large.
That's why Chen You didn't let Uncle Yan come here because he thought it was more dangerous.
He felt that at least Aunt Mei would not harm anyone over there.
Therefore, Chen You remained 120% vigilant and had already made various plans in his mind to ensure that if any unexpected situation occurred, he would respond accurately to ensure his own safety.
To put it bluntly, he came here because of his skill and boldness.
But as soon as the danger appears, he will immediately panic.
He made up his mind to try not to confront Ah Jiu head-on.
"Ajiu?" Chen You called again.
But still no one responded.
The room was very quiet, almost unbelievably quiet.
The sound of water dripping from the eaves in the backyard can be heard clearly.
In addition, there seemed to be sounds of pain and groans that seemed to be absent, reaching Chen You's ears intermittently.
Someone!
Chen You was horrified!
He clasped the talisman tightly, his whole body tense, and his vigilance was still raised to the extreme.
He was hunched over like a night owl. If there was any disturbance, he would immediately jump away and launch a counterattack.
But it was pitch black all around, and nothing happened.
"Uh...ah..."
The sound of Shen Yin came again, and this time Chen You heard it clearly. The sound came from underground.
Is it a human or a ghost?
Chen You searched for the sound and soon found a wooden board buckled on the ground. He vigilantly used his feet to stir up the wooden board and move it away, revealing a square hole.
It was pitch dark inside the cave entrance, and I didn't know what was there.
"Uh-huh..."
This time I heard it more clearly. It was a man's voice, which seemed to be moaning in pain unconsciously.
The sound comes from the cave!
Along with the sound, there was also a strong smell of blood!
There's a living person locked up in here!
Chen You was horrified!
His expression changed drastically, and he was uncertain for a moment before he made a decision, quickly tore off a large piece of his clothes, took out a match, lit it, and threw it away.
The fire light fell to the ground, and by the light of the fire, Chen You discovered that the cave was actually a basement!
The basement is about ten square meters in size. The four walls are covered with strange runes painted in blood. There is a rectangular wooden table in the center of the basement. There is a person lying on the table. This person is naked and has runes painted on his body from his chest to his two thighs.
, lying flat in a large font, looking like he was dying.
His wrists and ankles were nailed with a bone nail about the length of a foot! The bone nail looked like it was clearly ground from a child's thigh bone. It was engraved with strange Taoist runes and was stained with blood, but it looked like
Jade is smooth.
In the bright and dark firelight, Chen You could clearly see this man's appearance.
cooliewei!
A man who was once a lively and vigorous man was now dying and looking delirious.
While Chen You was horrified, he felt a chill rising from his tailbone and spreading all over his body instantly!
In addition to recognizing that the man whose limbs were nailed with bone nails was Ku Liwei, he also recognized the layout of the basement. It was clearly an extremely vicious and evil magic circle!
The name of this magic circle is "Five Curses to Punish Sins". It sounds like it is a magic circle for subduing demons, but in fact it is completely the method of evil heretics and is very vicious.
This kind of magic circle is usually used by evil practitioners to harm people.
The four bone nails can amplify the pain of the person cast in the array a hundred times, whether it is physical or mental.
The runes on his body and the surrounding walls can guarantee that he will fall into a painful illusion every minute, with no way to escape!
The plot of the fantasy is usually what the caster is most afraid of happening in his heart. The caster usually decides the direction of the fantasy plot before setting up the formation, and it is rooted in the heart of the caster through means similar to psychological suggestion.
deep.
Why is it called the Five Curses?
This is because every five hours, the person being cast will be tortured and one of their senses will be removed.
They are tongue pulling, nose protruding, ear poking, eye gouging and brain nailing.
These five tortures are also five vicious curses. The targets of the curses are usually people who are directly related to the person being cast.
After all five spells are cast, the person being cast will immediately turn into an evil spirit filled with hatred. The cursed person will also have his five senses blocked and fall into the same terrible illusion of reincarnation without being able to escape. Then he will also turn into an evil ghost and be unable to escape.
Detached.
Because the evil spirit of the evil ghost was killed by Ah Jiu, they will resent Ah Jiu, but they are also afraid of Ah Jiu. Usually, the evil ghosts born are either beaten to death by the caster, or they become materials for refining the evil ghost banner.
Chen You had only heard of this vicious curse formation from a colleague a few years ago, and now this was the first time he saw it.
He was not only horrified by the appearance of this vicious magic circle, but also horrified by Ah Jiu's cruelty.
What kind of hatred or resentment, he actually used such inhumane means to deal with Coolie Wei and his daughter?
There is only one person who is related to Ku Liwei by blood, and that is Ajuan.
Ah Jiu laid down these five vicious spells to punish sins, not only to kill Kuili Wei, but also to curse A Juan to death.
But why?
Ku Liwei has always lived a cautious and cautious life. Even when he was bullied, he would stand up to him and never conflict with others. How on earth could he offend Ah Jiu and be worthy of Ah Jiu's use of such insidious and vicious methods to deal with him?
Why did Ah Jiu suddenly become so mad that he killed both Uncle Dong and Coolie Wei and his daughter?
Chen You is scared!
He had already thought about quitting and decided to leave immediately!
This matter was completely beyond his imagination, and the truth behind it made him shudder just thinking about it.
He felt that this was no longer something he could get involved in. The matter must be reported to the police immediately and handed over to the government for handling.
Just when Chen You was thinking of quitting, something unexpected happened!
"Uh-huh!"
With a shrill and vicious scream, seven or eight little ghosts showed their ferocious faces from the darkness in front of them, and all rushed towards Chen You!
At this moment, Chen You was frightened and confused by the scene in the basement. This sudden attack suddenly shocked him!
Fortunately, even if he lost his mind, he still retained some vigilance. At this moment, he didn't even think about throwing out the talisman that he had been holding in his hand. He stood up and backed away while shouting: "Back away!"
boom!
The talisman burst into flames, and the golden light flourished!
Seven or eight little ghosts were suddenly illuminated by the blazing golden light, covered in black smoke. They screamed and flew backwards, as if they had been hit hard, and disappeared within the wall.
The blazing golden light illuminated the originally dark material, and also illuminated a face full of murderous intent behind Chen You.
Ah Jiu!
puff!
Before Chen You could take a breath, he felt a cold feeling in the back of his heart, his chest suddenly swelled, and something penetrated from the back of his heart and came out from the front of his chest.
He froze, lowered his head in disbelief, and saw a rusty brass spear tip piercing through his right chest.
Severe pain began to flow through his body, and the blood stains quickly spread, flowing "pattering" along the corners of his clothes to the floor, and gathered into a stream in the blink of an eye.
Chen You's lips twitched a few times, and his eyes showed confusion, which then turned into endless fear.
He turned around with difficulty and saw Ah Jiu's eyes full of murderous intent.
Ah Jiu was holding a short spear that was severely oxidized. Chen You had just seen this short spear in the hands of the bronze statue of the Night God outside.
Ah Jiu shook his teeth, suddenly tightened his spear, and kicked Chen You!
Plop!
Chen You staggered a few steps and fell into the hole in the basement.
"Cough cough cough..." Ah Jiu coughed violently and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He lay hunched over in the blood and coughed hard, almost coughing out his lungs. He coughed out several mouthfuls of blood before he recovered.
He let out a breath like a bellows and rested for several minutes before going to the corner to turn on the light in the basement, carefully lying on it and looking down.
When Chen You regained consciousness, he found that his limbs were tightly tied, his clothes were torn open, and his chest was exposed.
Ah Jiu was using a brush dipped in his blood to draw symbols on his chest.
Seeing Chen You wake up, Ah Jiu glanced at him, turned his gaze away, and said lightly: "Are you awake? How do you feel? Does it still hurt?"
Chen You gasped weakly and found that he couldn't shake his head even if he wanted to.
There was a taste of rust in my mouth, and my mind was confused.
He knew that it was caused by excessive blood loss.
"Life-extending Talisman?" He looked at Ah Jiu who was busy working on his chest and guessed what he was doing. He spoke weakly, his tone full of sarcasm, "What? Are you afraid that if I die, I will ruin your good deeds?"
Ah Jiu was very calm, and while drawing the talisman, he replied: "When a practitioner dies, his true spirit is pure. If he understands the method of ghost cultivation, he can immediately turn to the ghost path and become a fierce ghost to exist in the world. You have seen the greatness of Kuli, and I can't let it go."
If you leave, we can't let you die. If you die, you are a greater threat than if you are alive."
"Ho ho ho..." Chen You let out a strange laugh, "The life extension talisman is not the longevity talisman. I will die sooner or later. You can stop me for a while at most."
"Seven days!" Ah Jiu glanced at him, "As long as you live for another seven days, even if you die and become a ghost cultivator, you will only be my food!"
Chen You's pupils shrank suddenly and said: "What on earth are you going to do!"
Ah Jiu silently drew the talisman.
Just when Chen You thought he would not answer him, Ah Jiu suddenly said quietly: "You told me before that if a practitioner does evil, his karma does not have to wait until death to repay him. You want me to be careful in the last few years. In fact, you want me to be careful in the last few years. , it has disappeared in the last few years..."
"I had lung cancer. When I was diagnosed, it was already in the advanced stage and there was no treatment."
"The cigarettes I smoke are the ashes used to raise little devils. They are used to extend my life. However, it treats the symptoms but not the root cause. The evil energy in my body has accumulated so much that it is impossible to live anymore."
"Many children in nearby housing estates have died in the past two years. Is it all your fault?" Chen You asked.
"It's me." Ah Jiu said calmly, "There are nine children in total, five boys and four girls. They are all ignorant boys no more than eight years old."
Anger filled Chen You's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You are so cruel, you don't even give up your humanity in order to survive!"
"If I can't even be a human being, what else do I need to do with humanity?" Ah Jiu suddenly laughed.
"You are also a cultivator. If you commit such evil, you are not afraid that your soul will fly away and you will never be reincarnated?" Chen You gasped.
"Afraid, why aren't you afraid?" Ah Jiu's eyes showed genuine fear, and he even started to tremble when he spoke, "It's because of fear that I don't want to die, but I have to die... What can I do? You teach me what I should do what to do?"
His expression suddenly turned fierce, he glared at Chen You and gritted his teeth and said: "When I was young, I did everything I should do. At that time, I only wanted to be happy for a while, but when I got older, I realized that there is great terror between life and death..."
Ah Jiu's voice began to tremble again: "So I can't die, I absolutely can't die. If I die, not only will I have no dignity and suffer the most extreme punishment in the world, but my soul will also fly away and disappear completely. In this colorful world, there will be no me in the future." Nine! How can this be done? How can this be done?"
Chen You was stunned for a long time, and his expression finally changed.
"You use Uncle Dong to refine corpses?" He finally guessed Ah Jiu's purpose, "You want to use yin to get yang, and use corpses to bring back souls?"
Chen You's eyes widened and he took a breath: "Zombies have bodies but no souls, and ghosts have souls but no souls. The two are refined into one, and they become a corpse monster that is neither alive nor dead. The world despises you! You use the five curses to punish sins The purpose of killing Coolie Wei and his daughter is to use the power of blood to control zombies and let them survive the disaster on your behalf and avoid the underworld, right?"
"Cough cough cough..." Ah Jiu coughed a few times, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you."
"I can't live, and I can't die, so I have no choice but to live or die." Ajiu Youyou looked at Chen You, "This is the only way I can."
"What a big gesture, what a cruel heart!" Chen You gritted his teeth and said, "Are you so confident that you can deceive a ghost?"
"In the past six months, every day when the ghosts came, I sealed myself in a sun-shielding coffin." Ah Jiu said, "To the ghosts, I don't exist in this place at all."
"You started planning half a year ago? You are really planning it..." Chen You said sarcastically, "No wonder you have the idea of twin female ghosts, Ah Wei and his daughter, you can't ask for twin girls, so you should do the next best thing, right?"
"If you had given me the twin girls to Ku Liwei and the others, they would not have died." Ah Jiu said calmly, "I took in the twin ghosts, which can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people. I killed two birds with one stone. Brother You, Ku Liwei and his daughter,
There was no need to die."
"What do you mean, am I the one who harmed them?" Chen You sneered, "Ajiu, you won't succeed! If you want to go against the will of heaven, you will never succeed!"
"Whether I succeed or not, I have no way out." Ah Jiu looked at Chen You, "Brother You, in fact, I have also fantasized about changing the past regrets."
"I envy you very much. You are not afraid of life and death. It's a pity that I can't be as free and easy as you. To reach this point today, it can only be said that one step was wrong and every step was wrong."
"Don't make it seem like you are forced to do something helpless!" Chen You sneered, "No one forces you to do evil, and you can always turn back. You are just a coward who did something but didn't dare to take responsibility for it!"
"Whatever you say." Ah Jiu shook his head and changed the topic, "Qian Xiaohao, what is going on?"
"That day...I saw him flying...what on earth is he?" Ah Jiu asked with a fearful expression.
