Not long after, we arrived at Lijia Village.
When we arrived outside the yard of my house, the yard had undergone earth-shaking changes from the last time we came here.
The courtyard walls are made of blue stone bricks, and the courtyard head is also made of glazed tiles, which is clean and elegant.
At that time, Huang Qi and I told him to repair the house.
He also told him to ask the Huo family to inform the people of Jiuhe County that they could no longer give any more favors to the people of Lijia Village.
I opened the door directly and entered the courtyard. The courtyard was clean, the door of the main room was open, and the layout inside was still the same as that of my home back then.
However, what made my expression slightly change was that there seemed to be a person standing deep in the wall of the main room, staring at us.
I raised my hand and stopped Yang Qingshan's shoulder.
Yang Qingshan also looked into the main room.
The moonlight swayed a lot in the courtyard, but the house seemed strangely dark.
That man not only found Jiuhe County, he also found my old house...
"Not a living person, nor a dead person." Yang Qingshan said suddenly.
My eyebrows furrowed into a knot.
Neither a living person nor a dead person, what kind of person is that?
Yang Qingshan walked directly towards the main room, and my hand fell down.
In a few steps, Yang Qingshan entered the main room.
After I followed in, my eyes gradually got used to the black color.
As far as the eye can see, there is a person standing in the corner.
No, that's not a person, but a paper stick. The face painted on the paper stick is extremely weird, with all the eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose.
It seems to be lifelike, but in fact it is extremely weird.
Paperman Xu never paints faces on his own paper.
Even in the Guoyin Mountains where Guan Xiantao's tomb is located, we saw thousands of pieces of paper, but he did not paint faces on them.
"A piece of skin, a very weird skin."
Yang Qingshan narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered again.
"Xuchanglin." I closed my eyes and my voice became hoarse.
"Do you know him?" Yang Qingshan asked again: "This is the enemy you call?"
"No, he's not." When I opened my eyes again, my tone became much more complicated.
If it hadn't been for this guy, I never would have thought that Xu Changlin might come back.
Looking at it this way, it seems that the horse was skinned, which is the method of the paper maker.
But there are some problems here...
How could a paper maker use a talisman?
Or is it that Xuchang Lin will cooperate with others? !
"Yang Qingshan, if that person appears, you can't kill him." I said again.
"You didn't have this attitude just now. You said that every injustice has its owner and every debt has its owner." Yang Qingshan's words were particularly direct.
I couldn't answer for a while.
But Xu Changlin is Uncle Xu’s only son...
The atmosphere in the room became deadlocked for a moment.
Yang Qingshan looked at me deeply, and the young man's face was even more thoughtful.
"What does this person have to do with you?" he asked me.
"I have an uncle who is both a teacher and a father. It is because of this relationship that Xu Changlin and Uncle Xu fell out. And for some other reasons, I became a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh. But Xu Changlin is Uncle Xu's only flesh and blood. If I kill him, I won't be able to explain to Uncle Xu." I said in a hoarse voice.
"Then how do you explain it to your servants?" Yang Qingshan asked me again.
Yang Qingshan looked at me with an indescribable look in his eyes. He shook his head and said: "Master told me that every gentleman is an indecisive person. If the gentleman has the heart to practice Taoism, he can use it to his full potential." The effect is greater than that of Taoist priests, but it’s a pity that Mr. Xiang doesn’t have it.”
"I am half a gentleman, and I can generally understand your mentality, but this matter is too selfish for your servant who died tragically. He can kill people in one encounter, so he must have committed more than one crime."
"You can't stop me from this matter." Yang Qingshan's eyes overflowed with murderous intent.
However, there is a sense of awe-inspiring righteousness in this murderous intention.
"How about not killing him, but detaining him and handing him over to his father?" I said to Yang Qingshan again.
"Deceiving yourself and leaving the decision to others?" Yang Qingshan shook his head.
"..."
His words really choked back all my words.
Raising my hand, I directly used the Golden Ruler to pierce the paper.
The paper bundle fell crookedly towards the ground.
But just as it fell halfway, it suddenly trembled again, and the whole paper stick stood up again, extremely full!
That lifelike face with all the facial features revealed an extremely terrifying smile.
There was a soft sneer, and a jet of black blood spurted out from the mouth when the paper pricked his mouth.
I was so close to it that blood was about to hit my face.
Yang Qingshan suddenly snorted coldly. He pushed me with one hand and took out the fly whisk from his waist with the other hand!
With a flick of the fly whisk, the blood was blown away and all fell on the wall behind.
Amidst the chissing sound, white smoke rose, and several corroded holes appeared on the wall.
The paper stick trembled again, and several more daggers shot out from various positions on its body.
Seeing those small daggers aimed at Yang Qingshan.
Yang Qingshan's body suddenly spun on the spot!
His speed was so fast that the whisk seemed to form a barrier!
Those daggers did not hit Yang Qingshan, but were directly bounced away by the fly whisk!
From behind, I could see the essential difference between this paper tie and the paper tie made by Paperman Xu...
The resentment in this paper is too strong, and the blood is still full of corpse poison...
This is very similar to the kind of paper-man Xu skinned Wu Xianchang alive...
But Wu Xianchang is a man who does all kinds of evil and harms nature and justice.
Can Xuchanglin find the kind of person to skin him? !
His temperament is not that kind of person at all...
Skinning people alive and making paper pricks is too cruel!
While I was thinking, Yang Qingshan's body seemed to spin faster, and a sharp spell came out.
"You can kill grass and break the ground! You can kill ghosts and bring disaster! It can be used by ordinary people!"
Several mahogany swords shot out of him at the same time!
Those mahogany swords were firmly nailed to the paper-pricked person, nailing him to the wall.
The paper bundle was trembling extremely, as if it was about to burst due to the wind, or as if it was laughing...
But the next moment, it suddenly became sluggish and stopped moving...
This move was exactly what Yang Qingshan used to deal with He Pheasant, Red Mastiff, and Dun Kong at that time.
I raised my head and scanned around the yard.
If the paper can react, Xuchanglin must be nearby!
Lin Mu was shocked... He must be in the place of Zhen Gua!
I immediately turned around and walked eastward after walking out of my yard.
Not long after, Yang Qingshan quickly followed me.
I didn't say anything and kept walking forward.
It didn't take long before I came to a familiar place.
This is the back mountain of Lijia Village. On the top of the bare mountain, you can see some old tree trunks with branches, and several corpses hanging on some ropes...
This is the place where my father used to be a corpse collector and hung the corpses...
Below is an old forest. Under the moonlight, the trees are so dark that they seem to be stained with ink.
This is the place where Zhen Gua corresponds to the hexagram...
