The Haunted House in the Barren Village Chapter 19: The Ghost Soldier
"In the vast Fengdu, there are thousands of ghost soldiers and nine ghosts. Anyone who resists will be punished!"
Chu Ling's voice.
The sound came from all directions, but Bai Wuji couldn't find Chu Ling's figure. He only knew that Baigui, who was constantly tearing apart the space, began to tremble...
"Boss? Where are you, boss! What kind of mantra are you reciting? You've never heard of it!" Bai Wuji shouted on the spot.
"Shut up, you bastard! I will deduct three months of your salary this time! If you do this again, you will be fired!"
Bai Wuji suddenly had black lines on his face.
Seeing that Li Gui was completely motionless, Xue'er in the air was also surprised. After reacting, she shouted: "Who! Who is in my world! Get out!"
Bang bang bang!
Bursts of footsteps coming from all directions suddenly entered the ears of Bai Wuji and Xueer.
At the same time, Bai Wuji felt a coldness that penetrated deep into his bones, attacking his body. He looked towards the distance of the road in front of him, where he saw a dense darkness gradually approaching, with a blue-grey light.
Bai Wuji turned around and looked at the intersection beside him, the same thing happened.
And behind the scenes!
Thinking back to the spell that Chu Ling just recited, there was the word "ghost soldier" in it. Could it be that Chu Ling used the ghost talisman he got from the ghost mother-in-law last time?
Xue'er kept trembling in the air, mumbling infatuatedly: "Yin... Yin soldiers?"
When the evil ghosts saw the Yin soldiers, it was like the unruly people saw the regular army. No one dared to continue to seek death and suppressed their ghost energy honestly, and the Yin soldiers stopped in their tracks.
They were wearing ancient battle armor, without any expression or making any movement, just like a group of gloomy sculptures.
A crisp sound of footsteps came from the phalanx of Yin soldiers in front of Bai Wuji, and a pretty figure walked out of it. She was petite and had delicate features, but her eyes looked as if she wanted to kill Bai Wuji.
It's Chu Ling.
"Boss, morning..." Bai Wuji laughed dryly.
"Huh!" Chu Ling rolled her eyes at Bai Wuji and looked up at Xue'er who was in a daze in the sky for a long time.
"Boss, how did you get in?" Bai Wuji broke the calm.
Chu Ling stretched out her little foot and kicked Bai Wuji's calf: "You came here! Bai Wuji, you said you are an ordinary person and you don't know any magic, so you followed Fatty Wu in to catch ghosts, right? How much did he give you?
Money, tell me! Why are you so obsessed with money? Isn’t it that the salary I pay you is not enough for you? If you don’t play tricks for a day, you will feel itchy in your heart, right? You said you..."
I originally thought that Chu Ling was going to explain the cause and effect, but this girl actually started preaching mode.
Bai Wuji wanted to cry but had no tears.
In the sky, Xue'er quietly looked at Bai Wuji and Chu Ling below. Although her eyes were extremely cold, they strangely did not have any intention of attacking.
"Boss, let's first tell you what's going on. How did you come in and find me? Then, tell me about this, and we'll talk about it when we get home."
Chu Ling snorted softly and then said: "How to get in is what the elders in the family told me. Wei County was a small county in Lingu during the late Ming Dynasty. At that time, Wei County was plagued by goblins. It was mentioned in some unofficial histories of the Ming Dynasty.
There are also records that it is said that the fox demon fell in love with a mortal. After the truth was revealed, the mortal abandoned her. The people of Wei County worked together to invite an exorcism master to injure the fox demon. The fox demon was heartbroken and angry, and made everyone in the town angry.
Killed, and then sealed her own soul and the souls of all living beings in Wei County in a bloody jar. No one knows the specific reason. Only during the Qing Dynasty, a scholar once wrote in his miscellaneous notes that he came to Lingu City
Town, while staying in an abandoned ancient house, I dreamed that I traveled through time and space and saw some strange and strange things. In the dream, I had passed more than ten days, but when I woke up, I found that I had been asleep for half a year."
Speaking of this, Chu Ling suddenly smiled and looked at Bai Wuji: "You have been missing for more than a week. Please call your aunt as soon as possible. Mommy."
Bai Wuji has a black face.
"...I followed what the elders in the family said, and used the ghost talisman to invite the Yin soldiers to break the evil spirit in the house. Then I used the Yin soldiers to lead the way in. Okay, there are Yin soldiers now, and these evil ghosts don't dare to resist. Let's get out quickly.
, while the ghost village outside has not disappeared, while I can still control these evil soldiers." As he said that, Chu Ling pulled Bai Wuji's wrist.
Bai Wuji nodded, but suddenly pulled Chu Ling back: "No, boss, Fatty Wu has gone somewhere, we have to find him."
"Don't worry, I just found him when the Yin soldiers were leading the way. Now he's tired and fainting. He's fainting outside."
Hearing what Chu Ling said, Bai Wuji felt relieved and followed Chu Ling towards the city gate.
But Bai Wuji was wondering why Xueer had no intention of stopping her. Is it because there were Yin soldiers present? Was she afraid?
Bai Wuji was also curious about the Yin soldiers. When he went to the city gate, he casually asked Chu Ling how he could use the ghost talisman. The ghost talisman was a good thing. Normal ghosts who had suffered injustice would not dare to use the Yin soldiers.
Follow the challenge. But when it came to this, Chu Ling said less. He just shook his head and said: "The price is too high, I won't use it in the future..."
"ah?"
"Ah, what, let me tell you! Don't cause trouble for me in the future. The ghost charm is the last time I will use it. I will bury it when I get back."
After saying that, Chu Ling quickened his pace.
Bai Wuji was baffled.
When they came to the city gate, the city gate was closed. Bai Wuji reached out and pushed open the city gate. But this time it was different from before. What appeared in front of Bai Wuji was not darkness, but the ghost village of Linjia Town in the dusk.
Xue'er looked at him in surprise. Fatty Wu was lying on the ground, really fainted from exhaustion.
At this time, Bai Wuji looked back, and behind him was the courtyard of the ancient house where he broke in that day.
Chu Ling pushed him: "What are you looking at? Get out quickly. It will get dark soon."
Bai Wuji took two steps forward, thinking that everything would be over, but after he and Chu Ling came out, people were still walking out of the door of the ancient house. They were Yin soldiers, one Yin soldier leading another.
People from Wei County in ancient times.
One after another.
After walking like this for about thirty minutes, Chu Ling became anxious and looked at the time: "Hey, brother Yin Bing, please hurry up."
Finally, when the sky was completely dark and a dark wind was blowing around the village, the Yin soldiers brought out the last person, Mr. Wei. Mr. Wei looked at the world blankly, with a ghostly face twitching constantly.
The next moment, bursts of wailing began to emanate from the ancient house. The house twisted, and black mist emerged. As the black room dissipated, the house continued to shrink, and finally turned into a cloud of gray-white smoke.
When the smoke cleared, Bai Wuji saw clearly that it was a jar, blood red.
"This is..." Bai Wuji bent down and picked up the jar.
"Cousin, Master Dao! Let's go quickly, you two look around!" Michelle stepped forward to urge Bai Wuji and Chu Ling.
In addition to the endless ghost soldiers and the ghosts of Wei County, there are also many ferocious ghosts around. The yin energy is very heavy. If there weren't many yin soldiers nearby, these guys would have rushed up and tore Chu Ling and others to pieces. Moreover,
It's strange that these ghosts are not like the ghosts in Wei County. They are only afraid of the Yin soldiers in front of them, but they are not afraid. The Yin soldiers don't seem to have any intention of accepting these ghosts.
Bai Wuji looked around in confusion, but in the end he was forcefully dragged away by Chu Ling and Michelle.
Just after leaving the village, Bai Wuji looked back and found that the village had become slightly distorted and translucent, and the ghost soldiers, villagers and ghosts in the village gradually blurred together with the ghost village.
gradually disappear.
Bai Wuji looked at the jar in his hand at this time: "Why are there still so many evil ghosts in the village even though this matter has been resolved? And it seems that they will still appear in the village tomorrow morning."
"Who told you that after solving the curse of the ancient house, the ghost village will disappear?" Chu Ling took the jar from Bai Wuji's hand: "This ghost village in Linjia Town is really evil and dangerous. I can't handle it at all. In the village
The ancient house is just a part of the evil here. Moreover, fortunately you and Wu Hao have been staying in this jar. If you were not in this jar, I really don’t know what world we will end up in after this ghost village disappears. When the time comes, you will
It’s even harder to say what we will encounter.”
Hearing what Chu Ling said, Bai Wuji frowned: "I wonder what world I went to? Boss, what do you mean, although you handed over all the ghosts in Wei County to the ghost soldiers, can they reincarnate in the underworld?
Not necessarily?"
"If the Yin soldiers can return to the underworld, they can. There are so many Yin soldiers that ordinary people can't keep, so don't worry."
"But boss, I still have two questions." Bai Wuji suddenly looked at Chu Ling with a strange expression.
Chu Ling nodded: "Ask."
"Why are the villagers coming out but not seeing the fox demon? The jar is empty. Where has she gone?"
"Before I came here, I asked the elders in my family. They analyzed that maybe the fox demon was not that stupid to commit suicide. After all, she was hundreds or even thousands of years old. How could she be obsessed with a person to the point of committing suicide? I guess
, she may just hate these mortals, so she used this jar to trap them and seal them. The fox demon in the jar is not a real fox demon, but the villagers' fear of her. This can also be explained.
Why did the fox demon have no intention of resisting anymore after the villagers were frightened by the Yin soldiers?"
Michelle, who had never had a chance to interrupt, now looked down with disgust at Fatty Wu who was dragged to the ground by her in a coma, and said: "Yes, it is basically difficult for us to have any good impressions of ordinary people. Those are all
It’s a story that can only be found in TV series and novels. If it were me, well, I prefer red-haired male foxes with a body length of more than one meter. In addition, the color of the fur under the belly should not be too different, and then..."
"I'll go to the pet market tomorrow and you can get one for me, okay?" Bai Wuji laughed dryly.
Chu Ling approached Bai Wuji at this time and asked curiously: "By the way, you have a second question, what is it?"
"Huh? Second question, did I say I had a second question?" Bai Wuji also looked at Chu Ling strangely.
"It's inexplicable, forget it!"
Bai Wuji quickly clasped his hands together: "Hey, tell me, boss, hey, my second question is... is that three months' salary you said true?"
"Absolutely true!"
After saying that, Chu Ling's pace quickened and she walked towards the village road to Linjia Town.
But Bai Wuji's pretended depressed expression disappeared and was replaced by doubt. In fact, the second question he wanted to ask was: Why didn't he see Wei Heng's soul?
