After being forced to debut in metaphysics, I became popular

When Daoist Ma carefully opened the door and went out to check, Daoist Wang, who had been taking turns to rest and was a little sleepy, woke up instantly because of the cold wind blowing in.

Daoist Wang didn't dare to be careless, he held the mahogany sword in his hand, and the talisman paper was sandwiched between the fingers of the other hand, standing in the center of the hall, looking seriously at the back of Daoist Ma.

The rest of the people were also infected with serious emotions by the two priests.

All the conversations disappeared, the atmosphere in the air was tense, everyone didn't dare to breathe out, they held their breath and huddled together, praying frantically in their hearts that there would be absolutely nothing, just let them spend the night quietly, and then leave quickly and smoothly.

But what you are most afraid of will often come.

With the harsh creaking sound of the door shaft, the door slowly opened.

As soon as Daoist Ma raised his head, he suddenly met a stiff face.

He was taken aback by surprise, and then realized that it was not a living person.

It's a wood carving.

It's just that the face is carved so lifelike that the woodcarving looks like a real person at first glance.Only its empty and stiff eyeballs can reveal some real emotions.

It stared blankly at Daoist Ma, and seemed to look past him into the house. Even the surrounding temperature was as cold as ice, making one shiver uncontrollably.

With the help of the faint light, Daoist Ma barely made out the appearance of the wooden statue.

For some reason, Daoist Ma felt that this face...was somewhat similar to Daoist Li.

What surprised him even more was that the wooden statue was not wearing ordinary villager clothes, but Taoist robes.

This makes it look more like Lee Do-jang himself.

But, how is that possible!

Even though Daoist Ma was mentally prepared to encounter ghosts before, seeing the person he respected most appeared in the form of a ghost at this time still surprised him, and his thoughts could not help but be affected, turning into a ghost. A mess.

Daoist Ma unconsciously let go of the hand holding the door frame, his eyes were wide open, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether it was Daoist Li or the evil woodcarving in front of him.

Or...was the ghost actually himself?

In Ma Daochang's career of catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits for decades, he has encountered many life and death crises, and he has also seen the most thrilling opportunities.

He is well aware of the bad nature of evil spirits, which is far beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

The soul that has fallen into an evil ghost will no longer be divided into good and evil. The longer the mind is infected by ghost energy, the original memory and emotions of the soul will be blurred, and in the end it will be polluted into an appearance that even the person does not recognize.

Evil ghosts hate living beings and take pleasure in their suffering.

Perhaps, the evil spirits knew their identities as Taoist priests, so they disguised Li Daochang and others as wooden sculptures, and used tricks to make them think that those colleagues and masters who got along day and night were all evil spirits, so they shot and let the people who were close and respected die in the own hands?

Or, in fact, they were dead but didn't know it, so in their view, Taoist Master Haiyun who came to exorcise evil spirits looked like a ghost instead?

Many kinds of thoughts flashed through Ma Daochang's mind, making him stand in place for a while, not knowing how he should react.

Daoist Wang at the back noticed Daoist Ma's stiff posture, he frowned, and strode forward vigilantly: "What's the matter, what's outside?"

As he walked, Wang Daochang quickly passed Ma Daochang and saw the wooden sculpture outside.

His pupils constricted instantly, and he blurted out: "Daozhang Li!"

But after the words came out, Daoist Wang immediately reacted, even if the wood carving in front of him looked like a stranger, it didn't have Daoist Li's aura of not being angry, self-imposing and successful in cultivating Taoism.

It's evil!

Wang Daochang grabbed Ma Daochang's arm, threw him back into the room, then raised the mahogany sword in his hand, and jumped towards the wood carving.

"Puff!"

The mahogany sword pierced into the wood carving's chest impartially.

However, there was no joy on Wang Daochang's face, only fear.

He could clearly feel that the touch under the mahogany sword... was not wood, but as soft as human flesh and blood.

It seemed that what he just swung his sword at was not a wood carving, but a stranger.

Originally thought that Daoist Ma was accidentally haunted by evil spirits, Daoist Wang suddenly understood Daoist Ma's bewilderment just now.

Because he also began to doubt himself at this time.

Am I really dealing with a demon?Or is it actually me who was haunted by the ghost, and the ghost was hidden behind me, making me think that the stranger in front of me was an evil ghost, so I shot... Could it be that I hurt an innocent person?

What's more, did I hurt Li Daochang?

Wang Daochang's heart was shaken, and he couldn't tell what was real for a while.

The people who stayed in the room only saw the two priests standing at the door in a daze, without moving for several seconds.

They looked at each other, not knowing what was going on outside.

But the tense atmosphere in the air made everyone gradually tense their hearts, guessing that there were really ghosts outside, and they were very difficult to deal with.

Otherwise, how could the two priests have no response at the door?

Everyone shrank back anxiously, using the furniture and walls in the house to hide their figures.

Their hearts were beating like drums, and they couldn't hear anything clearly in their ears, only the crazy prayers in their hearts remained.

But Bai Shuang, who was sitting on the bed wrapped in a coat, suddenly felt something disappearing in the corner of her eyes.

She instinctively turned her head, her eyes followed the light and shadow, and she saw a figure slipping past the broken window.

But before Bai Shuang could see clearly, the figure had already disappeared at the edge of the window.

Bai Shuang screamed and reminded the two Taoist priests loudly: "Taoist priest, there is something in the yard! I saw it!"

"It looks like someone just ran out of the window!"

This exclamation, like a knife, split Ma Daochang's chaotic thinking, and made him pull out his legs from a swamp. He was shivered by the cold wind blowing in front of him, but he woke up immediately over here.

Daoist Ma's eyes froze, he gritted his teeth and rushed towards the wood carving blocking the door.

Regardless of whether it is a real person or an evil spirit, he chooses to believe his eyes for the time being!

If you really hurt innocent people or relatives and friends, then let him apologize after you leave!

The top priority is the people behind him.

Daoist Ma thought so, muttering words in his mouth, and he hit the wood carving's head directly with his hands in seals.

He was chanting the ghost-killing mantra. If the person in front of him was a ghost, he would be killed on the spot. But if it wasn't a ghost, it would be a mild concussion at most, and there would be no more serious injuries.

But the wood carving didn't leave time for the Ma Daochang to get close to it.

The woodcarving who had been standing quietly at the door suddenly moved. It raised its hand and tightly grasped the mahogany sword that had been pierced into his chest. Then, with the palm of its hand, it snapped the mahogany sword and held the broken sword in its hand instead. , pointing directly at the Ma Daochang.

At the same time, the wood carving opened its mouth, as flexible as a real person.

A hoarse and unpleasant sound came from his mouth.

Even though the other party's voice was ambiguous and mocking, Daoist Ma immediately recognized what the other party was talking about.

Because that is the incantation that Daoist Ma just said, and the content is well-known, every word and every sentence is learned from Haiyun Guan.

Kill ghosts!

Not only is this woodcarving not afraid of the mahogany sword, but he can use the mahogany sword at will, and he can even kill ghosts.

And these methods that the Taoist priests used to deal with ghosts on weekdays were held by the ghosts at this time, and they turned against the Taoist priests themselves.

How absurd!

Following his own muscle memory, Daoist Ma turned sideways subconsciously to avoid the mahogany sword pierced by the wooden puppet, but he couldn't stop being shocked.

If anyone had told Taoist Master Ma before today that evil spirits could use the ghost-killing spell to deal with Taoist priests, he must have thought the other party was crazy.

But now, the most impossible thing happened before his eyes.

Before Daoist Ma could figure it out from his messy thoughts, he heard screams of panic coming from behind him.

Looking back in a sideways posture, he saw that the people who had been hiding behind the furniture and corners rushed out frantically, as if they were trying to stay away from the furniture as much as possible.

Ma Daochang was puzzled.

But soon, after everyone dispersed, something hidden behind the furniture was revealed, which made them avoid it.

is a person.

No, to be precise, it was another wooden puppet.

The wood carving also had lifelike facial features and face, and was wearing loose clothes. It was pushing open the door of the closet and slowly crawling out.

Its expression was fixed on a smile, and the arc of its mouth was a standard smile, but because its eyes and facial muscles hadn't moved at all, its smile looked extraordinarily frightening.

When the wood carving was climbing out with the wardrobe door, some people boldly picked up the things around them and threw them at the wood carving.

However, when the iron and steel kettles and pans hit the wood carving, apart from a crisp sound, it did not stop its movement at all.

Instead, the wood carving slowly turned its neck and looked at the attacker.

The staff who had stepped forward boldly were immediately shocked by this look, and unconsciously took a few steps back.

Daoist Ma wanted to rush over to deal with the wood carving, but there was a wood carving beside him, and it was still attacking him, preventing him from getting out.

"Wang Daoist, wake up!"

Daoist Ma shouted violently: "I know what you are hesitating about, but now, what matters now!"

Compared with the illusory possibility, Ma Daochang gritted his teeth and chose the present in the dilemma.

Even if all of them may have died and turned into evil spirits without knowing it, it is his duty to protect everyone in the program group.

Junior Brother Yan was not there, there were only the two Taoist priests here, one of the program crew was injured, and he couldn't explain to Junior Brother Yan, he was ashamed to see the official person in charge and Junior Brother Yan again.

Daoist Ma knew that he might have been deceived, but he made a quicker decision to cut through the mess.

Indecisiveness leads to disaster!

Even if it was a wrong choice, he would admit it!He will bear all the consequences.

Daoist Ma roared and recited the Golden Light Mantra aloud to protect all those who followed him.

After dodging the wooden carving's sword, he turned around in the air with a low body, avoiding the mahogany sword in the wood carving's hand, being careful not to let himself be injured by the mahogany sword, and then rushed towards the wood carving.

Without knowing whether the opponent was a human or a ghost, Daoist Ma simply gave up all methods of dealing with ghosts, and only used the most primitive and simple way to press the woodcarving with the weight of his body, continuously accumulating strength with the potential energy brewing in the air, and then The wood carving couldn't resist being pressed under him.

The expressionless face of the wood carving was also flashed with astonishment for a moment.

But in the next second, the world spun.

While Daoist Ma threw the wooden carving to the ground, he stretched out his hand and snatched the mahogany sword from the opponent's hand, then exhausted all his strength, shouted, stabbed the mahogany sword straight down and was firmly suppressed carved wood.

Then, Ma Daochang felt the touch that Wang Daochang once felt.

If it is soft and warm, it is not as cold and hard as wood should be.

Under the mahogany sword... is not a wood carving, but a real flesh and blood body.

Ma Daochang was taken aback.

The wood carving groaned indistinctly, then struggled vigorously, overturned the Ma Daochang and ran out of the yard staggeringly.

Daoist Ma stared blankly at the back of the wood carving, and... when the wood carving was running, the warm blood dripped all the way.

He sat on the ground blankly for two seconds, looking at the blood stains on the broken mahogany sword in his hand, he didn't know what he was thinking for a moment.

It wasn't until the exclamation of everyone in the room sounded one after another that Daoist Ma got up like a ghost, turned around and rushed back into the room, ready to deal with the wooden sculpture that scared everyone.

Even though Daoist Ma wanted to chase him out to find out whether it was a wood carving or a real person, he didn't dare to fight, lest it was a tactic to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

Compared with the truth, he is more concerned about the people in the program group who have no power to protect themselves.

After Daoist Ma rushed back to the room, he saw that Daoist Wang had calmed down from his previous stupor, stood in front of everyone, and forcefully pulled the wooden sculpture out of the closet.

Immediately, Daoist Wang yelled violently, picked up the chair beside him, and smashed it down on the wood carving in his hand. The intensive attacks like a storm made the wood carving lose the power to resist for a while, unable to fight back.

Then, without waiting for the wood carving to respond, Daoist Wang pinched the joints of the wood carving's limbs with his bare hands, and with a sudden force, he heard a "click!", and the limbs of the wood carving were all removed by Daoist Wang.

The wood carving also lay down on the ground, motionless.

Its head was twisted 180 degrees during the fight and screwed to its back. That stiff face was still smiling without stopping.

It seems to be laughing at the futility of everyone.

Then, the wooden carving's eyeballs slowly dimmed.

"Crack!" There was a sound, obviously no one continued to attack the wood carving, but its chest suddenly collapsed, followed by the head, torso, limbs...

There was a crisp sound, and the wood carving collapsed as if it had been run over by a heavy object.

A stench of blood overflowed from the broken body of the wood carving.

Black pus spread under the wood carving, flowing unscrupulously on the ground.

The stench was like that of a piece of meat that had been left in a box for decades, rotting and fermenting.

Straight to the heads of the people.

They retched from the stench, and quickly raised their hands to cover their mouths and noses.

But their eyes were too hot to open due to the stench, so they could only blink desperately. Physiological tears flowed down the corners of their eyes to moisten their eyeballs, which made them feel a little better.

Where the pus passed, everyone retreated one after another, fearing that the unknown liquid would get on the soles of their trousers.

Only Wang Daochang looked at the collapsed and damaged wood carvings in front of his eyes, and was stunned.

The wood carving was smiling at his face.

It's more like mocking him.

Wang Daochang only felt that anger and panic were intertwined in his heart, and the feeling of emptiness that he had never felt since he left the teacher spread in his heart.

On the way of cultivating Taoism, Daoist Wang has never been lost.

Daoist Li and Haiyun Temple are like the beacons of all Haiyun Temple disciples.

As long as Li Daochang is still there, as long as Haiyun Guan is still standing, everyone will not lose their way.

All the predecessors of Haiyun Temple who died in martyrdom used their corpses as disciples for future generations, and paved the way for them to do so long ago.

——Defend yin and yang, and guard the stability and happiness of ordinary people.

The way of viewing sea clouds is for the people of the world.

This goal has always been set in the distance, so that Wang Daochang can see where his own path is when he raises his head.

And therefore unwavering.

But now, Daoist Wang is confused.

The scene in front of him subverted his previous cognition. The two thoughts in his mind fought with each other, regardless of the outcome, but it also made him wonder for a while what is real and whether he is a human or a ghost.

And the one he beat to death... In the end, it was a human or a ghost.

Daoist Wang didn't even dare to think that if he was already dead, the protection he thought was actually hurting innocent people, even the other Taoist priests of Haiyun Temple.

Then how should he deal with himself?

Just as Wang Daochang was staring at the pile of rotting flesh and sawdust in a daze, a hand lightly fell on his shoulder.

Daoist Ma sighed: "Don't think so much, just treat yourself as a fool at a time like this."

"Thinking in reverse, what if those evil spirits want us to doubt ourselves like this?"

Just because he has experienced a lot, the more mature the Taoist leader, the more and more complicated his thoughts are when facing a crisis. He has to balance all the information he has obtained and choose the most appropriate way to deal with it.

Just like Yan Shixun, he never easily believed what he saw.

Only after calm and meticulous observation and deduction, will he draw a conclusion cautiously and solemnly, and decide how to deal with the evil spirit in front of him.

——It was sent to the underworld, reincarnated after being punished.

Or go to hell, where you will suffer endless torments for eternity to pay for your sins.

Although Daoist Ma is not like Yan Shixun, he treats all evil spirits and strangers equally before making a conclusion.

His position is naturally inclined to protect strangers.

But after all, he has been alone for decades, has his own meticulous thinking, and carefully refers to all past experiences.

But now, this experience that allows him to deal with ghosts with ease has instead become a rope that restrains him, tightly entangled his thinking, made him hesitate, and made him hesitate.

The same is true of Wang Daochang.

Just because Ma Daochang had experienced a similar psychological struggle, he could understand what Wang Daochang was thinking at this time.

He sighed, squatted down next to Daoist Wang, and examined the carrion carefully.

Then, Daoist Ma's face gradually became serious.

He found that the wooden sculpture hiding in the closet and attacking everyone was very different from the wooden sculpture outside the door.

The most obvious is the clothing and appearance of the two woodcarvings.

Although this wooden carving is also wearing a Taoist robe, it is loosely worn. It does not show the uprightness of an ordinary Taoist priest. Instead, it looks like a street skater who has stolen other people's clothes and gone out to play. The wide Taoist robe is worn on it. like a jerk.

What's more, the wooden sculpture outside the door resembled Li Daochang so much that it shook the minds of the two Daoist priests. It was obviously sharper and stronger than this one, and it left decisively after being seriously injured, spilling blood all the way , was also warm and fresh.

It is no different from a stranger who has just been injured.

But the woodcarving killed by Wang Daochang turned into a rotting corpse after "death".

A body that seemed to have been dead for a long time was hidden in a wooden carving.

Daoist Ma turned a blind eye to the stench of the corpse. Even though his eye sockets were physiologically red and tears overflowed from the smoke, he still looked through the carrion carefully, hoping to get more clues from it.

He thought very clearly.

If his conjecture is true—or two completely different conjectures are true, the evidence of authenticity lies in the different details of the two wooden carvings.

A new guess emerged in Ma Daochang's mind.

Perhaps, they and Li Daochang and the others were cast with a blindfold at the same time?

And the evil ghosts mingled among them, covering their tracks, confusing the sight of all the Taoists, trying to disrupt the battle situation and let them kill each other.

These wooden sculptures that don't look like Taoist priests in Taoist robes and hide rotting corpses inside are evil ghosts.

And the face just now resembles Li Daochang...

It is likely to be the real Daochang Li.

Thinking of this, Daoist Ma's palms began to tremble unconsciously, and he couldn't help being afraid, but he also knew that at that time, he had no better choice.

Daoist Ma told Daoist Wang his guess, and everyone in the surrounding program group also listened intently, and was immediately taken aback by the horrifying truth.

"wait wait wait."

Someone was distracted by Daoist Ma, and asked hesitantly: "It means that we have to face not only evil spirits, but also good people? Then the people on the opposite side are also, and we have to distinguish who is who between the evil spirits and us." ?”

Others exclaimed: "Isn't that! We can easily be regarded as evil spirits by the Taoist priest opposite and sent away directly?"

The crowd suddenly became commotion.

"Aren't those Daoists powerful? How do they compare with Brother Yan? They must not be mistaken!"

"If the person on the opposite side makes a mistake, aren't we going to die?"

"Why is this happening! Aren't we human? Why are we reduced to the same level as evil spirits?"

"I didn't quite understand Brother Yan before. I thought he always thought too much. I don't know why he didn't get rid of evil spirits like other masters... But now I take back my previous thoughts and sincerely hope that all masters They are all the same as Brother Yan, carefully distinguish them before making a move."

"I never thought that one day I would also experience the feelings of evil spirits. It is an experience I have never experienced in my life."

"Master, are we going to be okay?"

"Then, the one that the Taoist priest just injured may be the Taoist priest on the opposite side? Oh, this, this! Our own people are fighting with their own people, alas."

Everyone's uneasy emotions can only be vented through words with their companions.

But Daoist Ma listened more and more seriously.

Everyone's words reminded him of one thing - why do evil spirits look the same as living people?

If it is an ordinary evil spirit, can it really achieve this level?

Decades ago, the village surnamed Bai was wiped out all over the village because of that evil spirit. Later, even the exorcist was sacrificed, and then the ebony statues related to ghosts and gods were used to suppress it.

After the suppression failed, Daoist Ma knew how vicious the evil spirits fought back.

But to achieve this level, one can openly switch the identities of the people one after another in front of the world. First, the ghost puppet show hides from the world, and then it gets worse, reversing the positions of evil ghosts and strangers...

This clearly means that the Dao is leaning towards ghosts!

Humans are no longer the primates of all things, ghosts are.

Because it was still early when they came to Baizhi Lake, Daoist Ma and the two didn't know that Daoist Li had brought the Taoist priests to Baizhi Lake, and they didn't hear Daoist Li's divination.

But the strange thing that happened in front of him made Taoist Ma gradually guess the truth.

When thinking clearly, he did not have the joy of knowing the truth.

Instead, a heart sank.

Taoism follows nature, and the power of practitioners beyond the scope of science comes from the thousands of creatures under the Dao, who are favored by the Dao and borrowed from the gods of the four directions.

This is also why the collapse of the Dao will have such a huge impact on the ascetics.

——They couldn't use their strength, so their deterrent effect on ghosts was naturally weakened.

But at that time, even though it was difficult, the priests were still able to use the power of the Quartet, the spells and the mahogany sword in their hands, and they were still able to frighten and drive away the ghosts.

But now...

The devil is in power.

How do strangers deal with themselves?

Ma Daochang's eyes were cold.

He stood up and left a sentence to Daoist Wang, "You stay here, Daoist Wang. I'll go out and have a look, and I'll be right back." Then he turned around and left, and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

If his guess is true, then he must find a way to convey the message to the other party, so that the other party also realizes that they are not evil spirits, but fellow human beings.

They cannot fall into the trap of ghosts and kill each other to weaken their strength.

To sacrifice for such a meaningless thing, I don't know!

Daoist Ma stepped out of the courtyard with firm eyes.

The deserted village was still the one he was familiar with.

The village houses that were no longer inhabited were covered with green and black moss everywhere, and the road was covered with weeds as tall as a person. In the desolate and dead silence, the cold mountain wind slightly blew the weeds.

It seems that the whereabouts of the woodcarving who ran away were also completely hidden in the weeds and could not be found again.

Ma Daochang pondered for a moment, then opened his legs and walked in the direction where the weeds were shaking.

He found that not all the weeds were shaking, but some of the weeds were shaking from near to far.

Like, there are invisible people walking through the weeds.

Ma Daochang quickly proved his guess. He followed the weeds swaying route and indeed found a wooden sculpture.

But it wasn't the one he stabbed before.

This wooden sculpture stood quietly under the eaves, half of its body was swallowed by darkness, and its head was lowered, making it impossible to see its face.

Only the neat robes on his thin body seemed to indicate his identity.

Daoist Ma was taken aback for a moment, then realized that this might be another Daoist who he regarded as an evil spirit.

He walked over slowly, indicating that he had no intention of attacking, and asked softly: "You are, Haiyunguan..."

Before Daoist Ma finished asking, he saw the wood carving slowly and straightly fell forward, with a sound of "Boom!", it fell forward on the ground.

Then something behind the wood carving was revealed——

It's another woodcarving.

Hearing Ma Daochang's voice, the woodcarving slowly raised his head to look over.

On the mahogany sword it held tightly in its hand, there was still blood dripping.

……

"Li Daochang, this village is full of wooden carvings with living mouths and eyes!"

An urgent warning sound came from not far away.

Dao Chang pierced through the wood carving that was rushing towards him with a sword, and before he could catch his breath, the sense of crisis sent out a warning, making him look back vigilantly.

Then he saw, in the shadow hidden behind the wall behind him, there was always a wooden sculpture, silently watching him.

Daoist Priest rushed over without even thinking about it, and wanted to get rid of the wood carving as well.

But he was half a beat behind and suddenly felt that the face of the wood carving was very familiar to him.

Isn't this... Daoist Ma?

Thinking of this, the Taoist priest slowed down his movements. He blinked his eyes and looked at the wood carving in amazement. He didn't know what was going on with the wood carving for a while.

Just now, when the ghost exorcists in the Southwest introduced the wooden dolls with live mouths and eyes, they also mentioned many powerful ghosts known to the exorcists. Identity and appearance, and then make an identical wood carving according to Li Gui's appearance.

In this way, ghosts will be attracted by the wood carvings that look similar to themselves, and thus live in the wood carvings, from invisible to tangible, so that the ghost exorcist has a target.

The Taoist priest couldn't help but think that Taoist Ma and Taoist Wang entered the White Paper Lake before them, and they have lost contact until now, their whereabouts are unknown, and their life and death are unknown.

Is there a possibility that Ma Daochang and others have already died, and their souls were used by ghosts after death and trapped in the wooden carvings.

Otherwise, why does this wood carving look so similar to Ma Daochang?

For a moment, the Taoist priest was tied up, not daring to attack directly.

After weighing it up, he turned decisively and ran outside the barren house, explaining his findings to the other priests in a loud voice.

With this voice, many priests responded immediately.

After Li Daochang first discovered something was wrong, the Taoist priests scattered to check the entire village.

After searching, they were shocked to find that there were many wood carvings in the rest of the houses.

Moreover, whether it is living habits or appearance, they are no different from strangers.

It's as if this is a village where woodcarving puppets gather. It's a very normal thing, but they broke in recklessly, destroying the peaceful life of the woodcarving people.

Although the priests quickly struggled out of this illusion of confusion, re-established their firm defense, abolished the mobility of the wooden carvings, and threw them back into the barren house, and locked the door to prevent them from disturbing Dao The investigation of the elders.

However, the priests still have some doubts about such a strange scene.

Many priests discovered one after another that many of the woodcarvings rushing out of the houses were very familiar to them.

After thinking about it carefully, the priests exclaimed, isn't this part of the missing people in the program group?

Because many staff members of the program group did not appear on camera, and no news came back, the supervisor was worried that the priests would not recognize them when they met the staff of the program group, and accidentally injured their own people.

Therefore, before the Taoists set off to leave Haiyun Temple, the Supervisory Court specially asked for a backup of the list of program crew members from the special department. They save lives.

But now, the preparation of the Supervisory Academy has played a role.

But it also trapped the movements of the priests.

For a while, they couldn't tell whether these wooden dolls, which looked similar to the staff of the program group, were real strangers, or the wicked means of the evil spirits to confuse them.

The Southwest Ghost Exorcist watched helplessly that the Taoist priests who had the upper hand gradually lost the wind because they restrained their hands and feet and dared not attack, and even many Taoist priests were injured because of this.

He was so anxious that he repeatedly slapped his thighs, desperately recalling the master's handbook he had read, trying to think of something that could help the Taoists.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration appeared.

The ghost exorcist from the Southwest shouted: "The ancestral graves in the Bai village are all empty! My master said this. He said that the lost corpses were probably stuffed into wooden carvings with living mouths and eyes."

"Daoist, I dare not say anything else, but if there is a smell in the wood carving, it must be a ghost!"

With the words of the Southwest Ghost Exorcist, he immediately ruled out many options for the priests.

Even if they don't know the true identities of the rest of the wooden puppets, they can at least recognize some of them.

If you can kill one, kill one, and if you kill one, there will be one less evil spirit, and the situation will be better.

Just when all the priests were determined again and violently attacked the wooden carvings disguised by the evil spirits, Taoist Li stopped because of the statue placed in one of the houses.

This is a house full of fire marks.

Different from the dilapidated barrenness of other houses, in this house, there are boxes piled up everywhere, some boxes with the lids opened, and you can still see the gold, silver and jewelry inside, shining brightly even in the dark.

It's like the head of the household has just moved here.

It's just that in the living room, there are four grand master chairs neatly arranged.

Sitting on the main seat is a statue of a couple.

The man smiled honestly and honestly, and his eyes seemed to be flowing with honey when he looked sideways, full of expectations for a better future.

That is his wife.

The female wooden doll is pregnant, with a round belly that looks like her day will come soon.

But her face is not similar to her husband's joy, not a gentle smile, but ferocious resentment.

Holding her belly in her hands, she looked straight at the fetus under her belly, her mouth opened to the extreme as if roaring hysterically.

Li Daochang can even see the belly of the female wooden doll bouncing up and down.

It seems that there is really a fetus in the belly of the wood carving.

On the Taishi chairs on both sides, there are a man and a woman sitting respectively.

The man is already middle-aged, but the woman is still a little girl.

They looked at each other, but their swords were on edge, not like a family, but like enemies.

Beside the little girl, there was a slender and elegant male wooden sculpture. He looked at the little girl intently, his handsome and mature face was full of worry and intolerance.

But it wasn't just the wood carvings in this room that caught Li Daochang's attention.

It's... a black mist lingering in the air.

The black mist is gloomy and cold, as if it has substance, entwining the female puppet's belly, as if it is intimately close to the fetus inside, unwilling to leave.

Li Daochang realized the difference here almost as soon as he stepped into this extraordinarily magnificent house.

Even the air here is filled with a strong ghostly aura.

No... not just ghosts.

Li Daochang's expression gradually became serious.

In addition to ghost aura, there is also a more upright demeanor, which seems to come from the power of ghosts and gods related to death.

Li Daochang, who is over a hundred years old, has experienced a hundred years ago when the Great Dao was not in decline. He grew up in an environment full of ghosts and gods when he was young. Priests and Taoists are more sensitive to distinguish ghost aura.

The ghostly aura at this time made Li Daochang seem to be pulled back to a hundred years ago for a moment, reminding him of the day when he saw Fengdu ghost messenger.

This feeling is so similar to the feeling that Fengdu Guicha gave him!

Could it be that the faint ghost power mixed in the ghost aura...belongs to Fengdu?

Could it be that Fengdu participated in the birth of ghosts?

Li Daochang was shocked.

At this moment, the door that was originally open suddenly closed behind him, making a loud "bang!"

Separated the house and the outside world, leaving Li Daochang here alone.

Li Daochang turned around suddenly and saw that the door was automatically locked.

And the lamps on both sides of the gate automatically turned on, and the flickering candlelight illuminated a space, but the shadows cast were like evil spirits barking their teeth and claws.

The black mist became thicker and thicker, almost covering the entire house, except for a few vague silhouettes, it was impossible to see anything clearly.

When Li Daochang turned around calmly, he saw the female wooden sculpture who was originally sitting on the main seat, but now she was standing behind him, staring straight at him with deep and dead eyes, and the distance between him and him was only a few centimeters.

If he had made any panic moves just now, if he moved too much, he would definitely collide with the female wooden sculpture.
