Chapter 25 Thriller
That sneer made my whole body freeze, not because of fear, but because I seemed to smell a secret that had been buried for many years, and I had entered a vortex, and the vortex was full of some kind of terrifying unknown.
The magic of asking was completed at this moment, and the communicated will of the ghost soldiers began to spread out, and began to act on my request, temporarily calming these ordinary people.
Immediately, the world seemed to quiet down. The originally chaotic scene, with people dancing like demons, suddenly stopped all their movements. Some people's cloaks had been lifted while they were twisting the old man away, and their eyes remained in horror.
moment.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and a trace of guilt flashed through my heart. Since I had invited ghost soldiers, this kind of 'hypnotic suppression' similar to confusion must be full of some kind of fear, and it might leave a mark on people here in the future.
It's a psychological shadow, but at this moment, I can't care so much, and God will forgive me for wanting to save those children.
Thinking like this, I lifted the hat of the black cloak that had been covering my head. On the late autumn night, an inexplicable cold wind blew, and I walked step by step towards the high platform.
The man in black who just made a strange corpse-like roar just kept looking at me, watching me walking towards the high platform step by step, without any words or any movements, like a wooden man, but several other black people looked at me.
The people in clothes gathered around him nervously.
He seemed to be very calm. He didn't make any move about me suppressing everyone in an instant. Sensitively from his cold breath, I couldn't feel that he cared about this matter at all, but he seemed to be quiet.
It feels like it's waiting for me to arrive at your door.
My mood was a little confused. Looking at the "terrible" sacrifices on the high platform and the dancing fire in the brazier, I felt more and more that the high platform was a terrifying place, and I couldn't help but start thinking wildly.
"The Roar of the Corpse is a mystery that Taoists cannot solve even today." In the bamboo forest house in my memory, my master was explaining it to me as a child while holding a book describing various monsters and monsters.
"Why is it an unsolvable mystery?"
"Because zombies themselves have incomplete souls, and there are even very few zombies that don't even have souls due to some kind of mutation, so they can just pick up the corpse. But once they pick up the corpse and become active for a certain period of time, they are contaminated with human blood.
After becoming truly formed zombies, their roars have a strong suppressive effect on humans. A formed zombie, even if it roars in the deep mountains and old forests, if it is being attacked
If people within a ten-mile radius hear a little sound, it will arouse the deepest fear in their hearts. Do you know? Fear is a great harm to the soul. Just like when a person is suddenly frightened, the consequences will also be caused by fear.
Depending on the degree, it can even be life-threatening. The soul is afraid of fear. But only the soul can have an effect on the soul. How can a zombie make such a corpse roar? It is difficult to understand."
"Ah, Master, the zombie roar is so powerful? Then if I encounter a zombie and the zombie roars in the future, won't I be roared to death?"
"If you are in awe, you will naturally have no fear in your heart. Even if you are not a Taoist and do not have the method of soul defense, ordinary people will not be affected if they can do this."
"What do you mean? Master?"
"A person who is always in awe, his words and deeds are magnanimous to heaven and earth, and he lives up to all things. He who is blessed by God, how can he be afraid? Brat, go take a bath. It seems that you only know how to copy the Tao Te Ching. There is no such thing.
Understand the profound meaning, and after you finish taking a bath, copy it to me a hundred times."
"Smelly old man, I will never do this"
In the cold wind of late autumn, before reaching the high platform, the memory stopped abruptly. The warmth of the memory suddenly eliminated my fear, and a smile appeared at the corner of my mouth unconsciously. I didn't even notice that at this time, there was an old and feeble animal.
His hand held me.
"Don't go up." I turned around and saw, isn't it the frail old man? The success of the magic just now allowed them and a group of more than a dozen old people to finally get rid of those ordinary people. I didn't expect that he would stop me at this time.
, and I seemed to hear someone calling him Mr. Liu.
"Why? Don't you want to save the child?" My eyes were full of surprise. Wasn't he coming to stop these people from doing anything to the child?
We didn't notice at all that our conversation was a bit strange. I didn't ask him who he was, and he didn't ask me who I was. We just talked in such a familiar way, all because we had the same goal at the moment.
"Liu Jiwang, I advise you not to interfere. He is my sacrifice. This sacrifice is very interesting. Ten years ago, such a sacrifice appeared once and it was very satisfying. Do you want to destroy it? Do you think
With all your blessings, can you be so reckless as to destroy such a sacrifice?" I didn't expect that my brief conversation with the old man would touch this subject.
The middle-aged man who had been very silent actually took a few steps forward and walked to the edge of the high platform. He looked down at me and this frail old man like this. Unlike others, this man in black not only wore a cloak, but also a mask on his face.
He was wearing a mask, but what he said was full of all kinds of information. I was already lost in thought and didn't pay much attention to the mask on his face.
Sacrifice, satisfaction, ten years ago I thought of the old man who rented a house to us again, some of the things he said were not like no one has been here before!
"Wei Donglai, I have to stop you today even if I pay all the costs. What do you want?" As I was thinking, this weak old man suddenly burst out with a strong momentum. Although his body was still so weak, his eyes were full of hope.
A certain firmness, as strong as an immovable rock.
But I was stunned. Two questions exploded in my heart. The first one was the terrifying Wei Donglai? Wei Donglai!! If I remember correctly, in the story Mr. Ge told us, he was a dead man!! He was obviously
He died at the door of the broken house that night. His second question was why did Mr. Liu, whom he had never met, be so strong in protecting me? Not letting me become a sacrifice?
This town made my throat dry. I thought I was close to the truth, but in fact I found that I knew nothing.
"Well, of course I can't do anything, but wait a moment, the ship from the Holy Village will arrive, and I will naturally tell everything truthfully then. Haha." At the end of the sentence, Wei Donglai laughed happily a few times. He was originally cold and cold.
And why is he so happy without emotion? Is it because he finally suppressed Mr. Liu?
After Wei Donglai said these words, Mr. Liu's face became extremely ugly. He glanced at the four crying children on the high platform with some guilt, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go." After that, he pulled me along.
Gotta go!
"But the child" I don't know what grudges are happening in the town, but I don't want to be affected by these grudges. I am here to save the children, so I naturally want to take them away.
The reason why I wasn't tough was that I couldn't bear to push away this frail old man who was pulling me, but how could he pull me? I told myself that I had to save the child!
"I saved you, but I can't save them. Even if I pay all the price, let's go." Mr. Liu's tone was full of sadness and helplessness, but I couldn't understand it at all.
"You're still wise. Over the past few decades, you've destroyed a total of 7 sacrifices, which is enough. But this time, do you think you can avoid the punishment of taking away the sacrifices after paying all the price? If you think you are righteous, you will be considered.
That damn daddy"
"Wei Donglai!" Mr. Liu became angry all of a sudden. He stomped the cane on the ground again. At the same time, his hand stretched out tremblingly, and the fist he had been holding suddenly loosened. In that fist, it was astonishingly...
A small finger bone, black, exudes an evil yet alluring light.
What is that? I looked at all this with more and more confusion, and the arrogant Wei Donglai on the high platform suddenly lowered his head in fear, and then knelt on the high platform with his knees.
His movements were full of awe, but he said bitterly: "Liu Jiwang, you can only rely on this to protect you forever. You can only rely on this to protect you. From now on, you will inevitably die.
You will die, you will die!"
It is simply an extremely vicious curse, but Mr. Liu is not afraid of it: "People will always die, birth, old age, illness and death. It is human nature. If you see through it, what is there to be afraid of? You are wrong to threaten me with this."
"What's the use! Let's go"
While we were talking, Mr. Liu came to pull me up again and wanted to say something to me. But at this moment, from the rolling Yellow River next to me, there was suddenly a sound of drumming.
