Chapter 068 Soulless Corpse, Movement Is Spirit

Although everyone in the village suspected that the legendary "Lao Beizi" was responsible, no one had ever seen that thing, and no one would be afraid of it, so during the Chinese New Year, almost all the labor at home was dispatched to carry out the work.

Farm tools such as shovels and hammers went into the mountains to help Wang Yong and his wife find their children.

Naturally, this includes me and Mai Xiaorou.

However, we didn't hold any tools. We also met an acquaintance along the way. This person's name was Zhao Xiaoyu, who was my elementary school classmate. However, the relationship between us was not that good, and the most we met was to say hello.

A group of us walked along the footprints into the mountains. After Zhao Xiaoyu saw me, he ran over to greet me, and then said to me: "I heard you brought back a beautiful girlfriend. I didn't expect it to be so beautiful. No wonder these days

You haven't come out of the house all this time because you're hiding it because you're afraid of being seen."

I asked Zhao Xiaoyu how he was doing recently and whether he had a girlfriend.

He shook his head and said, not yet.

After chatting with Zhao Xiaoyu for a few more words, I found out that he was studying at a university in the capital, but he was pretty good. He started making his own software in his sophomore year and then sold it to some companies. I heard that after the annual leave, he would come back

When he got to school, he even wanted to set up a company.

I have to say that Zhao Xiaoyu is really capable.

But my mind was not focused on his showing off, but on those footprints on the ground.

When everyone followed the footprints, they did not damage the traces, so even from behind, we could clearly feel the Yin energy in the footprints.

Judging from this, the person who "took away" Wang Yong and his wife's child was definitely not the same person.

As for whether it is the legendary Old Carrying Man, I dare not say, because the description in the legend is very abstract. It often goes into the village and secretly carries away children, and then disappears. There is no description of its appearance at all, and it even does what it does to carry away children.

Well, there is no description.

When I was thinking about these things, Zhao Xiaoyu said again: "Chen Yu, do you know that the Liu Group that is planning to invest in us after the year is quite powerful and is a large enterprise that can be ranked among the best in the country.

"

Liu Group!?

Zhao Xiaoyu's words made me slightly stunned, because Tang Qing said that the Liu family, a huge Taoist family, had a faction that joined the Shizong, and they established the Liu Group. Could it be that they invested in Zhao Xiaoyu?

Seeing that I seemed interested, Zhao Xiaoyu continued: "Chen Yu, if you don't have a job after graduation, come work for me in my company and I will give you a high salary!"

When Zhao Xiaoyu said this, I smiled directly at him without saying a word.

Mai Xiaorou said: "Our Chen Yu will not work for anyone in the future. He is someone who wants to become something big."

After saying that, Mai Xiaorou pulled me forward and walked quickly. She probably didn't want to listen to Zhao Xiaoyu show off.

Zhao Xiaoyu was also sensible and did not catch up. Instead, he went to chat with others. However, he was talking about his own company. Looking at him, he wanted to use a loudspeaker to tell the whole village that he was going to set up a company to do business.

The boss is here.

But I always have a feeling in my heart that Zhao Xiaoyu and I will really have some interactions in the future. I don’t know why, but I just have such an intuition, which is very strange.

After walking a few steps forward, I asked Mai Xiaorou if she knew the origin of these footprints.

Mai Xiaorou shook her head and said, "I'm not sure. This is the first time I've encountered such a case. But one thing is certain. The footprints were definitely not left by a human. If they were a human, they couldn't have walked barefoot in the snow."

It’s so far, and there’s still such a heavy yin energy along the way.”

I said: "It can't be a ghost, because ghosts have no physical body and cannot leave footprints."

Mai Xiaorou smiled at me and said, "Smart!"

I was a little worried and said to Mai Xiaorou: "If this thing is really not done by anyone, then it will be considered a case. Your current physical condition..."

Mai Xiaorou said to me: "I think this yin energy is not very serious, so if you come to this case, I will not take action easily. I will guide you by my side."

When I heard Mai Xiaorou say that she wouldn't take action, I felt relieved.

We followed the footprints in the snow for more than twenty miles. Many people were tired and fell behind. Only Wang Yong and his wife, Mai Xiaorou and I, and a few relatives of Wang Yong's family in the village were still there.

Keep following those footprints.

At this time, a relative of Wang Yong said: "We have been chasing for so long, but the footprints are still moving forward. Wang Yong, you should call the police first. I'm afraid we won't be able to find the child for a while!"

Although this was said in a somewhat depressing tone, it was also true.

Wang Yong and his wife originally thought that they could find their child by following the footprints, so they did not choose to call the police. But now they were a little panicked. When they heard someone calling the police, they realized and quickly called the police.

At this time, Wang Yong also noticed Mai Xiaorou and I, and nodded to me in gratitude.

I nodded in return.

When they called the police, their speed slowed down a lot. I said to them: "Let's continue chasing."

Mai Xiaorou and I are both practicing Taoism. Although I haven’t been practicing Taoism for a long time, my breath adjustment over the past few months has already yielded results. After walking for such a long time, I don’t feel tired at all. On the contrary, I feel even better.

She has a lot of physical strength. Although Mai Xiaorou cannot use magic, her physical strength is still better than mine.

So after we speeded up, Wang Yong and the others started to be a little unable to keep up.

Seeing that the distance between us was getting farther and farther, Wang Yong shouted from behind: "Chen Yu, be careful."

I turned around and said, "Don't worry, Brother Yong, we will definitely catch up with the thief who stole the child and get the child back to you."

Wang Yong said another word of thanks, but I didn't hear it very clearly because the wind suddenly started blowing, and the sound of the wind interfered with my ability to hear Wang Yong's voice.

When he saw Fengmai Xiaorou, he said, "We have to hurry up, otherwise the wind will blow the snow foam and cover up the footprints, making it difficult to find that thing again."

So Mai Xiaorou and I speeded up again.

We have completely left Wang Yong and others behind, and we can no longer see some of their people when we look back.

After chasing for a while, Mai Xiaorou suddenly said: "Be careful."

I sensed the surrounding atmosphere through breath control, and found that the yin energy in the area began to become heavier.

We seem to be getting closer and closer to the "rightful master".

Our speed began to slow down, and the footprints began to be covered with snow foam. They were no longer very clear. We could only barely distinguish that the footprints entered a ravine. We walked along the ravine and heard children not far away.

of crying.

Mai Xiaorou and I looked at each other and became excited, we should have found the child.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, I want mommy, wuwu...Mom...Dad..." A child was crying hysterically, and we were getting closer and closer to that voice.

Following the sound, we saw a child sitting on the snow and crying, but there was nothing next to him.

As for that child, I have seen it twice, and it is indeed Wang Yong's child.

Without any time to think, I went directly over and picked up the child from the snow.

But just as I was holding the child, a black figure suddenly emerged from the snow next to me and grabbed the child directly.

I ducked to the side and seemed to have stepped on something. I stumbled and fell to the ground with the child in my arms.

Mai Xiaorou quickly came over to help me up, then took the child from my arms and said, "I'll take care of the child, and you go deal with that thing. It's not very strong, so you should be able to handle it."

At this time, I also saw the appearance of the black figure clearly. It was a woman who was frozen and bloodless. She was wearing a black singlet, her head was tilted, and her feet were bare.

Her skin was extremely pale, obviously from the cold.

"Ka...ka...ka..."

The woman made a weird sound, her voice was high and low, as if she was talking to me, but I couldn't figure out what she meant at all, but judging from her behavior, she seemed very angry.

The yin energy on that woman's body was very strong, and there was no yang energy at all, so we could basically conclude that she was not a living person.

But her body is not a virtual body, but a solid body. Could it be that she is a corpse like Mai Xiaorou!?

At the same time, I also took a few glances at my feet, and realized that the thing I just stepped on was actually the body of a child, but all that was left of the child was the bones wrapped in clothes!

Could this be the child that the woman had stolen from another village?

Looking at that woman, I felt a little chilled, and I asked Mai Xiaorou if that was a corpse.

Mai Xiaorou shook her head and said: "It's not a pure corpse, because there is no soul in her body. She just relies on a sense of resentment to support her consciousness."

I don't understand what Mai Xiaorou means.

She continued: "The memories after death will be left to the soul and the brain respectively. When a person dies, the brain dies, but the memories hidden in the brain are still there. When the woman died, although the soul did not turn into a ghost,

But there was a lot of resentment in her body. This resentment lingered around her body for a long time, and slowly merged with the memory in her brain to form spiritual consciousness. Then that spiritual consciousness began to control the body, which is where she is now standing.

The look of the woman in front of me."

Resentment combines with memory to form spiritual consciousness!?

Mai Xiaorou continued: "It requires a lot of resentment to form, but she has such a lot of resentment, her soul should turn into a ghost, but why didn't she turn into a ghost? Could it be that after she died,

Someone performed a ritual for her and forcibly expelled her spirit?"

The woman still did not rush toward us, but continued to make threatening sounds of "ka...ka...ka" at us.

Mai Xiaorou continued: "I heard from grandpa that this kind of thing is called a 'revenge spirit' and it is no longer human. To kill this kind of thing, you have to take her head and stab her with a sharp object.

in her brain, or just smash her brain into pieces!"

Hearing what Mai Xiaorou said, I suddenly felt that I might not be able to do that!

At this moment, my Snake King Pendant suddenly reacted, and a feeling of disgust was suddenly conveyed to me. Does it also hate this resentful spirit? (To be continued)
