The sound caught me off guard, but I have experienced this kind of thing a lot, and I didn't have the violent reaction I had at the beginning. I knew what the sound was without having to guess.
Moreover, this line sounds so familiar!
Thoughts rose in my mind. Judging from my perception, the thing behind me was not very advanced. If I were to get violent at this moment, I would probably be able to kill it with one sword.
Therefore, I did not look back immediately. I temporarily suppressed my curiosity, sneered, and said leisurely: "Of course I have smoke, but do you have fire?"
The voice behind him didn't change at all, it still had an icy chill, but after that, I heard clearly that it was the voice of an old man.
"Of course. I wasn't prepared last time. Of course I brought it this time. Young man, take it!"
After saying this, a wrinkled, chicken-like hand stretched out from his shoulder. When he looked closely, he saw that there was something between his fingers.
That was a box of matches, a box full of mold!
At this time, I was different from before. It was impossible to say that I was afraid. After seeing this box of matches, I just shook my head, sneered, and then said: "I'm afraid your fire is not strong enough? Do you want to take a look at my fire?" ?”
The voice behind me obviously didn't understand what I meant, and replied with interest: "Oh? What's the fire? Can you show it to me?"
I closed my eyes for a moment and concentrated, my yang energy surged throughout my body, and I shouted in a deep voice: "The yang fire of a cultivator!!"
Having said that, before the voice behind me could react, I turned back instantly, formed one hand into a claw shape, stretched out my hand and grabbed it!
Judging from the sound just now, the sound is only one step away from me. With my attack distance, it is definitely enough!
Sure enough, my reaction was too quick. The person behind me didn't move at all. My hand directly grabbed its neck. With the blessing of Yang Qi all over my body, the ghost had no way to hide. When I caught it, It showed no resistance at all!
This is too weak! I muttered something in my mind.
Only then did I see clearly the true face of the thing that made the sound!
This is the image of an old man with a clear face, a dark face, sparse hair, and a tattered fur coat. If he were not filled with yin energy, he would be no different from a normal person.
But even so, I can still judge that it has never killed anyone, otherwise in addition to the yin energy, it must also contain evil energy. Thinking of this, my hand holding the old man's ghost's neck unconsciously slowed down. a lot of.
What is certain is that the ghost of this old man should be the one seen by the guard.
The old man was obviously frightened by my move, but he was still afraid of the yang energy in my body. The yang energy of a cultivator is a deadly weapon for evil spirits!
So, with a look of horror on his face, he said repeatedly: "Young man, what are you doing? I'm just borrowing a cigarette from you. You won't treat me like this, right?"
I let go of the old man's ghost, and I wasn't afraid of it escaping, because I had the confidence to kill it the moment it ran away.
"Tell me, as a ghost, why do you want to stay here instead of going to the underworld to be reincarnated?" I said coldly.
The old man smiled bitterly, his fear not diminishing at all, and said tremblingly: "Young man, do you think I don't want to? But...but..."
It seems there is indeed a problem here!
Seeing the old man's haunted expression, I quickly asked, "What do you have to say? Tell me quickly!"
The old man sighed deeply, and then squatted on the ground, with a lonely look on his face.
Seeing this, I also understood that the old man had remembered something, and I couldn't bear to disturb him. Instead, I threw the half pack of crumpled cigarettes in my pocket to him.
"Here! Tell me!"
My words unconsciously became gentler, because what I saw now was not a ferocious ghost, but a poor old man.
After the old man took out a damp match and lit the cigarette, he took a strong puff as if taking drugs, and then slowly said: "I knew someone would definitely come here, because God has a way and a heart of mercy, no matter what Any place will be allowed to become a dead place..."
Later, the old man talked about the situation here leisurely.
It wasn't until the old man finished smoking half a pack of cigarettes in his hand that I understood what was going on here.
Before the school was built, this place was originally a cemetery. This was something everyone in the school knew. There was nothing to say about it, but it was strange that this cemetery was different from other cemeteries.
Although ordinary cemeteries are a bit weird and desolate, they are not scary at all, because after a person dies, no matter where he is buried, there will always be people from the underworld who come to pick him up. The soul cannot stay in one place for too long. In that case, the balance between Yin and Yang will be destroyed, but extreme phenomena cannot be ruled out, that is, some souls with deep resentment, or souls that reside in the Yang world for some special reasons.
But the cemetery in this place is different. It seems to have been abandoned by the underworld...
The old man died probably seventy or eighty years ago. At that time, because his family was poor, he couldn't even buy a complete coffin, so he was hastily buried here.
But just after the burial, I don't know how long it took, the old man's soul left the body, but then something abnormal was discovered.
Because, there are too many ghosts staying under this land!
This kind of situation is actually not common in the Yang world, because the Yin Division will not be so careless in doing things, and will not allow so many Yin souls to wander around in one place. It is unfair to both Yang people and Yin souls.
If the Yin soul misses the time to go to the underworld, it is equivalent to losing the qualification for reincarnation and can only stay in the Yang world. The final result is also very clear. If it harms others, it will be killed by the cultivators. If it does not harm others, it will be killed by Taoists. , then the soul will be slowly quenched by the Yang Fire of the Yang World.
To put it more seriously, if the ghost cannot enter the underworld, it is no different from being reincarnated!
