modern soul hunter

"What?" Tommy waved his hands in fright: "Isn't this grave robbery?"

Xu Xu raised his hand and patted the other person's forehead: "How can we say that opening the coffin is a tomb robbery? Tomb robbers are thieves who steal funeral sacrifices and make money from the dead. We don't have such evil intentions. Even if we see thousands of gold antiques, I don’t want a penny either.”

Li Jingxing glanced at the other party, with a look of morality thanks to you.

Seeing that the other party had deep eyebrows and a slightly sharp jaw, Xu Xu looked suspicious and almost wanted to pat his chest to prove his character: "Tomb robbers will be imprisoned if they are caught, and if they are serious, they will be shot. A gentleman, although he loves money, he gets it in a proper way, and he will never do things like beheading a sand jar, and I want to accumulate some ancestral virtues for my descendants."

"You Taoist priests can get married?" Huang Qianqian blurted out, and regretted a little after speaking, how could these things be asked in front of her.

"First, Li Jingxing is a Taoist priest with a certificate. Second, not all Taoist priests have to become monks." Xu Xu raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Stop being so talkative." Li Jingxing, an activist, had already pried up a corner of the rotten coffin with a bayonet, and ordered, "Help me."

No one stepped forward, and the previous flatterers all stood there and booed. Xu Xu walked forward slowly, covering his nose: "I need to do some psychological training, and next time I need to pay more for this kind of business."

"There is probably something inside." Li Jingxing continued to pry without changing his face.

Before Xu Xu could make mental preparations, Li Jingxing broke a piece of the coffin cover with his strength.

The scene inside the coffin is revealed more.

Li Jingxing held his breath and looked inside, and found that there was no corpse in the coffin.

This is an empty coffin.

"What did you see?" Shen Chenghai asked hurriedly.

Li Jingxing shook his head silently.

"So, the coffin here is just a display." Tommy stretched his neck and looked around: "Isn't it because people in this village have this habit of using coffins as furniture?"

"When the coffin was opened, there was a stench. How could there be nothing?" Asi muttered strangely, "It's normal even if there are rotting corpses."

"It's not like nothing." Li Jingxing replied.

This sentence made everyone even more strange. Shen Chenghai was curious. He had been engaged in scientific exploration programs all his life, but he had never touched the coffin. Now he boldly poked forward, pointed his left eye at the gap on the coffin lid, and looked in. , Huh.

"What's wrong? What did you see?" Axi asked eagerly.

Shen Chenghai turned his head in disbelief: "Only the outside of this coffin is rotten, and the inside is all new, and you can still see the limp silk."

With Shen Chenghai's temptation, the others were no longer afraid, and their strong curiosity drove them to slowly gather around the coffin and look at it one by one.

"This is not a coffin shop, is it?"

"No, there are funeral objects."

"Are these things worth money?"

"Don't touch them, they are all used by dead people."

"..."

Everyone was discussing lively, Li Jingxing backed out, he saw Xu Xu standing aside, looking thoughtful, walked over and touched him with his arm: "It's not easy, is it?!"

Xu Xu stroked his chin and thought, "It's really weird."

Li Jingxing answered: "There is an ebony bronze mirror inside, it is really unlucky."

"Bronze mirrors were called mirror burials in the old days, which means that they are dark. The bronze mirrors in the tomb can trap the ghosts of the corpses, but this practice is harmful but not beneficial. The longer the soul is trapped The greater the resentment, the more it will become a murderous ghost once it is broken." Xu Xu's expression turned serious: "Ebony wood is originally a thing to ward off evil spirits, also known as Shenyin wood, but ebony is originally an underground tree, so it must not be left for a long time. In the coffin, otherwise the yin will become a soul, and if it is blessed in a special way, it will become a yin."

"Why are these two put together? And the coffin is empty." Li Jingxing frowned. The wind and blessings increase suddenly, and if you encounter a killing wind, you will live. So..."

"People here are really ignorant." Xu Xu sneered, "I think worshiping ghosts is more effective than worshiping ancestors."

Li Jingxing sighed: "Respecting ghosts, trapping souls, self-defeating feng shui, we are in big trouble."

"You said that Kezuka ghost..."

Before Xu Xu finished speaking, Li Jingxing gave him a wink, signaling not to continue the discussion. He raised his head, just in time to see these people approaching.

Now that the night was falling, the abrupt coffin parked in the side hall looked ghostly, and everyone clamored that they didn't want to stay there any longer.

"Masters, this place is too eerie." Shen Chenghai became anxious: "The sky looks a lot darker, and the night here must be uneven. Is there any way to survive tonight?"

"Later, I will use Taoism to help you set up a defensive circle. Remember, under no circumstances, do not leave this circle." Li Jingxing instructed: "I don't know what I will encounter now, so you must not add trouble to me. "

Xu Xu stared at the Taoist priest and smiled: "How about burning this pile of coffins and destroying the lairs of these ghosts?"

"Don't worry, don't mess around, I won't attack until I find it." Li Jingxing said.

"Master Li, you should draw a protective circle for us earlier." Huang Qianqian, who was so nervous that she was about to collapse, moved closer to Li Jingxing, and asked in a pleading voice: "After tonight, can we return? "

"You can walk whenever you want, don't your feet grow on your body?" Xu Xu asked without hesitation.

"But we are not sure that we can return safely." Huang Qianqian looked at Xu Xu pitifully.

"Don't count on me, I'm not sure." Xu Xu quickly shifted his gaze, squinted his eyes and looked up at the sky slightly: "The sky seems a little bit wrong."

Just now, everyone had been focusing on the coffin and didn't pay attention to the surrounding area. Now dusk has come, but there is no sunset glow on the top of the mountain, but a creepy pale pink.

"Why do I have a bad premonition." Asi touched his chest and found that his heart was pounding.

"It's such a weird color, like the entrance to the spirit world." Tommy shuddered, and he felt the temperature around him drop significantly.

"Turn on the heater, it will be very cold in this mountain at night..." Shen Chenghai greeted, only to find that the heater had been carried on the dead Xiao Fei's body, left in that horrible room.

"What should I do? The temperature in the middle of the night will definitely drop below zero, and if you don't get scared to death, you will freeze to death." Huang Qianqian rubbed her own arm with her hand, glanced at Xu Xu, and knew that this person would definitely not be willing to help them , looked at Li Jingxing again, thought for a moment and said, "Master Li, you are a master of Taoism, help us set up a safe area first, and then trouble you to get the heater, otherwise, we will all be overwhelmed."

"Okay." Li Jingxing nodded.

He gathered all the people in the center of the ancestral hall, dipped a brush in the water bowl, and along the periphery of the crowd, he drew the way of defending the mountain in three circles, and then drew the cross in the ancestral way. It took a few minutes for the arrows and the four-layer magic wall to complete the defense after reciting the mantra.

"Before dawn, no matter what happens, don't come out." After Li Jingxing reminded again, he was about to leave to get a heater when he heard Xu Xu hum.

"I'll go."

Li Jingxing shook his head and disagreed: "This place is too evil, and there are many changes at night, so you are here to protect them."

"Obviously, they would prefer you to stay." Xu Xu glanced at him with a smile, and said in a nonchalant manner: "Besides, the evil spirit is only directed at weak chickens like them, and it's safer for me to be alone. "

"Don't be careless." Li Jingxing nodded: "Then go and come back quickly."

Xu Xu responded and walked out of the ancestral hall quickly.

The color of the sky is getting redder, and everything around seems to be embedded in a color cast photo. All objects are mixed with red, and the original color cannot be seen.

The surrounding houses made noises, and the sound of water underfoot was even more obvious.

This mysterious and deserted village seems to be resurrecting bit by bit.

Xu Xu had a vague premonition, and walked like flying.

After finally seeing the dilapidated house before, I found something hanging on a huge locust tree in front of the house.

He couldn't see clearly.I saw the wind blowing through the intertwined trunks, scraping the branches and leaves, and the leaves made a rustling sound.

The hanging object was floating and floating there, as if it still carried a certain weight.

The locust tree, the first of the five yin, is the ghost in the tree. It is very yin and easy to attract ghosts. There is a folk legend: there is a locust tree in front of the house, and a hundred ghosts walk at night.In Feng Shui, it is forbidden to plant locust trees near houses at all.

Xu Xu snorted.The things on the ghost tree were naturally not clean, and when he blinked, the floating things disappeared immediately.

Taoists reacted more calmly to supernatural phenomena than ordinary people. Xu Xu slowed down, chanted the Taoist formula for self-defense, and walked slowly towards the hut.

As soon as he walked to the gate, he caught a glimpse of the laundry tank outside the house, as if there was a person standing there.

But he knew what it was.

With strides forward, even without a deliberate glance, you can feel the shadow by the laundry trough getting closer.

Xu Xu recited formulas in his mouth, turned his head, and looked directly at it.

What caught the eye was not the blue-faced fangs, on the contrary, this ghost had no face, to be precise, it had no facial features.

Ordinary ghosts can't see faces clearly. If they can see their faces clearly, it is very dangerous. People who are unlucky or close to death can often see them clearly.

This ghost was already very tall, and when it approached, it would jump lightly, not as regularly as Xiangxi chased corpses, but occasionally rushed upwards strangely.

It clasped its hands in front of its chest, holding a hemp rope with a loop in its palm, the size of the loop was just enough to cover a person's head.

Suddenly, it ran towards Xu Xu's head with a rope.

Xu Xu chuckled, and the moment the rope touched his body, it turned into a puff of energy and dissipated colorlessly and invisible.

He stepped into the house with his head held high.

The air behind it gathers faintly again, returning to the ghost's bluish-white appearance, and continues to linger by the laundry trough outside the house.
