With Gu Cheng's current strength and cultivation, he no longer has to be as nervous as before when encountering various evil spirits and ghosts, and even almost all evil spirits cannot be hidden from his eyes.
Because he has practiced the Xuanyin Spirit Flying Scripture, Gu Cheng's perception is considered to be very powerful among his peers. When he stepped into the courtyard, he could already sense that this was an ordinary family without any Yin Qi.
Ghost.
Besides, it was daytime now. Although the sun was already setting, it was not really dark yet. If there was a ghost that could deceive his perception at this time, what level of existence would it be?
Seeing the woman in front of me holding a mummy with a kind smile, this scene felt extremely strange.
Gu Cheng frowned and said, "Sister-in-law, is there nothing wrong with your child?"
The woman quickly hugged the mummy in her arms tightly and said, "My child is very strong. He has been able to eat and drink since he was a child. What's the problem?"
As she said that, the woman took a bowl from the table and fed it to the baby's mummy, but what poured out of the bowl was bright red blood!
The mummy's mouth opened and closed, swallowing all the bowl of blood. Its head moved and turned towards Gu Cheng. The two holes where the eyes were located revealed endless light, making the surroundings extremely dark.
Even at this moment, Gu Cheng still didn't feel any evil spirit in the other party. At this moment, he finally understood that either there was something wrong with his own perception, or the other party was too strong.
"What kind of evil spirit dares to act unruly here?"
Gu Cheng snorted coldly, raised his hand and shot a Xuanyin spirit arrow towards the mummy of the baby.
He didn't use too strong a spell right away, because he was still a little unsure whether the couple and the baby mummy were ghosts, or whether they were both controlled by the baby mummy.
Gu Cheng will not be lenient in killing the cultivator who is his enemy. In the struggle for interests, fighting in the world is either your death or mine.
But for ordinary people, Gu Cheng doesn't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately.
Moreover, Gu Cheng still has the confidence to deal with these evil spirits, and that is his black jade space. This is also the real trump card that Gu Cheng dares to come to Fengxian Village to explore.
The black jade space has almost absolute suppression when facing this kind of evil ghost. No matter how bad it is, it can still give Gu Cheng a chance to escape.
The mummy of the baby opened its mouth and let out a silent scream, instantly shattering Gu Cheng's Xuanyin Spirit Arrow.
The woman was even more crazy at this time and shouted: "Why do you want to kill my child! Why do you want to kill my child!"
At this time, the man also walked out of the house carrying a hatchet, his eyes were red, and he said angrily: "I took you in with good intentions, but you want to kill my child!"
The next moment, the man suddenly cut off one of his own hands with a hatchet, causing blood to flow out instantly.
He threw the severed hands to the baby mummy, who immediately began to hold the severed hands and chew them.
Gu Cheng sighed, this family has become possessed by demons and is no longer human.
The secret talisman array of Xuanyin Twelve Jade swayed out. Gu Cheng formed seals with his hands to draw the talisman very fast, like an afterimage, and the Xuanyin spiritual energy was wildly stimulated.
But after the baby mummy bit into one of its father's hands, it suddenly jumped out of the swaddling clothes, crawled on the ground with its withered limbs, turned its head 180 degrees, and stared at Gu with its two dark and strange holes.
Cheng opened his mouth violently, revealing a mouth full of sharp fangs. The big mouth actually expanded to be larger than its head, and it swallowed all the Xuanyin Talismans in an instant, as if there were no side effects.
Gu Cheng frowned, and his power disappeared. The other party did not show any sinister aura, the Xuanyin Talisman immediately failed, and there was not even a burst of spiritual energy. What the hell is this?
The mummy of the baby rushed towards Gu Cheng fiercely, the Blood Abyss Sword was unsheathed, and the Qinglong Martial Arts shined green and gold as the sword light exploded out, hitting the opponent.
There was an explosion like gold and iron clashing, and Gu Cheng felt a strong force coming, and his body could not help but be knocked back a few steps. The power of this thing was surprisingly powerful.
The most important thing is that there is no scene in the courtyard around Gu Cheng at this time. It is completely dark, as if he is in another space.
Although Gu Cheng didn't know what was in the black, his intuition told him that if he was forced into that black space, he would not end well.
Seeing the mummy of the baby charging towards him again with its mouth wide open, Gu Cheng directly pressed the Stunning Guanyin Seal with his hand, and the dazzling golden light erupted in Gu Cheng's hand, this time it was even more violent.
Guanyin opened her eyes, not allowing any evil and heresy, and the suppressive and purifying power finally did not fail like the talismans and Gangqi.
Under the shocking Guanyin Seal, the baby's mummy suddenly let out a shrill scream and was directly blasted out. Even the pitch-black space was torn open with a crack.
Gu Cheng once again used the Amazing Guanyin Seal out of thin air, widening the crack, and jumped out of the courtyard with a movement.
When he turned around and looked at everything in the yard, where was there any dark space?
It was still the peaceful little courtyard, where the husband was chopping wood and making a fire, and the wife was holding her newborn son beside him and talking about family issues, and they were having a good time.
There were no mummies, no severed hands, and they didn't even seem to see Gu Cheng standing outside the yard.
But when I think of the scene just now, this kind of peace seems weird.
Moreover, only the ingot of silver beside the pot in the courtyard proved that Gu Cheng had really been here, and everything that had just appeared was not an illusion.
Gu Cheng looked back and saw that a tree had suddenly appeared on the other side of the courtyard, an old locust tree with leaves a little red.
The Sophora japonica tree is a yin channel that communicates with ghosts. As the saying goes, if there is a Sophora japonica tree in front of the house, hundreds of ghosts will walk around at night, which is really a taboo.
Looking ahead along the locust tree, the sky was getting dark. At the end of the path, there was a brightly lit village, but there was no life in it. It looked quite strange in the night.
It turned out that Gu Cheng had entered Fengxian Village at some unknown time.
Gu Cheng shook his head gently, secretly thinking that he was still a little careless.
It is really not easy to make Fang Wuwei, a tomb robber with a death wish, be so frightened.
Carefully recalling his previous experiences, Gu Cheng couldn't even remember when he walked in here.
Maybe it was just an accidental distraction, maybe he just raised his head and glanced at the sun, and he was already pulled in here.
However, he was content with what he had come, and Gu Cheng walked along the path towards Fengxian Village.
Just like what Fang Wuwei said, Fengxian Village is not a ghost land. Anyway, even with Gu Cheng's perception, he can't detect anything wrong. Everything that appears in front of him is no different from a normal small village.
Gu Cheng stepped into Fengxian Village and was surrounded by rows of houses. Most of them were mud houses, with few brick houses.
There are about five hundred households in the entire Fengxian Village. Although it may not seem like many, it was already considered a large village in those war-torn times.
According to Fang Wuwei, the place where he found the remains was a courtyard with a bloody locust tree, but when Gu Cheng arrived at Fengxian Village, he felt a little speechless.
Almost half of the yards in front of the houses in this village have locust trees!
At that time, it was normal for people to plant a large locust tree in their yard so that they could enjoy the shade and eat under the tree in summer. Therefore, Gu Cheng might have to dig up a lot of yards.
After taking a look around, Gu Cheng chose the nearest courtyard with a bloody locust tree and stepped into it, but nothing changed.
There was a lantern hanging on the wall of the courtyard, but Gu Cheng looked over, paused for a moment, and suddenly stretched out his hand to feel the flame of the candle in the lantern.
The fire is a real fire, and the candle is also a real candle, but this fire has burned for five hundred years but has not been extinguished, as if time has completely lost its effect here.
Gu Cheng carefully pushed open the door of the house in the courtyard. He expected to encounter the monster that Fang Wuwei had mentioned before, the monster transformed by the villagers of Fengxian Village, but in the end there was nothing and no one inside.
Candles were still lit in the room, and there were steaming meals on the table. It was as if the people in the room had just left, and the time in Fengxian Village had stayed at that moment forever.
Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, he already felt something strange about this place.
There was no result here, so Gu Cheng was going to check out other rooms.
As a result, when he walked out and took a look, the scene in front of him immediately made his hair stand on end.
The small road in the village, which had been deserted just now, was now filled with people. Everyone was walking out of their homes carrying a white lantern.
Even behind Gu Cheng, a family of three came out carrying lanterns from the courtyard he had just explored.
Gu Cheng took out the scabbard of his sword and poked those figures, but it went straight through them.
These people 'existed', or in other words, they existed five hundred years ago. Gu Cheng now felt as if he was actually there, watching a holographic movie.
There was an old man in the crowd among a group of white lanterns. He held a red lantern and shouted loudly: "The time has come to worship the true God. Please don't mess around and follow me!"
The old man should be the village chief. A group of people followed him along the path in the village, walked out of the back of the village, and reached the mountainside.
A platform was opened up halfway up the mountain, and in the middle was a seemingly crude temple, in which a statue of a god was enshrined.
But the statue was extremely blurry. Gu Cheng couldn't see the other person's face clearly at all. He could only vaguely see that there seemed to be two very huge goat horns behind the statue, which took up enough space.
Half a body.
At this time, Gu Cheng was like a spectator. He walked directly through the villagers and wanted to get in to see the statue. However, even when he got close to the statue, the statue was still blurry.
