The clouds in the sky seemed to be on fire, and the dogs in the village kept barking. That's what dogs do when they see unclean things.
Zhao Qian's Feng Shui compass was gone, and she squatted on the ground with her luggage, unable to do anything.
Zhao He put his hands on his hips and stared at Siqiao closely. Perhaps he thought that his yang energy could frighten the ghosts in the water.
I took out my mobile phone and looked at the time. It was already six o'clock. According to the current situation, it was impossible to leave the village tonight. My heart was full of sorrow.
Only Yu Xiaoxue had a big brain. She picked up the sweet potato and ate it raw, saying "sweet" while eating it. Even I wanted to whip her, let alone the two brothers Zhao Qian and Zhao He.
"Let me tell you, since everyone in the village is dead, where have all the bodies gone?" Zhao Qian suddenly asked me.
"I don't know, I haven't seen it, not even a corpse." I answered.
Yu Xiaoxue was stunned for a moment, as if she remembered her father's death, felt a little sad, and froze while eating sweet potatoes.
"You said that the ghost baby killed your brother, then where did this ghost baby come from?" Zhao Qian asked curiously again. She had returned to her usual capable self, as if the girl whose nose and tears were flowing today was not her.
When I asked this question, I remembered Zhang Yidan's body and said, "Let's talk about this later. We can't leave the village tonight, so I'd better bury my brother first."
The wilderness where my childhood friend was killed was not what I wanted to see.
"Brother, let's go help him." Zhao Qian nodded and pulled her brother to help.
The cemetery was extremely quiet, and there were no animals such as mice. When I looked down, my expression suddenly changed.
A grave has been erected where Zhang Yidan originally lay, and a tombstone has been erected on it.
My heart was beating wildly. There was no one else in Xiaoyitun. Who would collect Zhang Yidan’s body?
"Brother Tian, what should we do? Could it be that an acquaintance passed by to help him..." Yu Xiaoxue's face didn't look very good.
"Impossible, even if I know someone, I wouldn't be so kind as to bury a person who died in vain and go and see the tombstone." I walked over and stared at the tombstone, and my heart suddenly went cold: Seal script style.
"There is something in the south, and there is also virtue and concession, and the stars fight for their words, and they never give up or obey. They leave no memorial in life, and leave no name in death. Signature: Li Poxiao." Zhao Qian read the words on the tombstone with difficulty, and her face turned pale.
This stone tombstone was scratched with a sharp instrument, and the mark is not deep. I am afraid that it will be buried by the wind and sand in three or two months.
Zhao He scratched his head, he couldn't understand such profound words, but when Zhao Qian read the words above, he smiled and said: "Oh, it seems that there is really a living Lei Feng in this world, and he is also a cultural person. This epitaph Well written, I like it.”
I shook my head, how could it be so simple?
"Dig it up and take a look." After thinking about it, I took out the hoe and decided to dig the grave.
"Aren't you... Wouldn't this be disrespectful... Digging graves is too much." Zhao Qian immediately objected. She was a Feng Shui master, not a corpse thief. The Zhao family does not do such things.
Yu Xiaoxue didn't agree with me digging the grave either, so she waved her hand quickly: "Brother Tian, let's not disturb Brother Dan, okay?"
"Have you forgotten? The soul is gone, why bother?" I insisted on digging.
The remaining three people had nothing to say. Zhao He didn't dare to take action, so he let me do it myself.
I slowly dug out most of it, but I panicked as if a basin of cold water had been poured on me. Zhang Yidan was not in the grave at all!
I was afraid that someone had stolen his body, and I couldn't have hurt his body. There was nothing I could do about it. It was going to be dark soon, and I was afraid that something would come out of the cemetery soon, so I immediately picked up my hand and dug in a few times. , I saw the bottom and found out some things.
It's Zhang Yidan's upper body clothes.
But the clothes were taken off at all, and the cuts made by the scissors were still there, but the body was really gone.
Zhao Qian and Yu Xiaoxue both opened their mouths, and Zhao He was also stunned at the moment.
"His body was stolen, Li Poxiao, what an upright body thief!" I felt faintly angry in my heart. People still come to steal corpses after they are dead. Don't let me happen to Li Poxiao.
"Come into the village, it's too empty here, there's not even a wall to block the wind." I calmed down and said, considering that there might be resentful corpses like Zhou Xuan.
The Zhao brothers and sisters did not dare to object to my words now, so they decided to find a place to rest first. After all, they were too tired today and it would be too much for anyone with a little physical strength, let alone two women.
When Zhao He passed by Si Bridge, he sprinkled paper money and lit incense, but did not dare to look under the bridge.
I have passed by here several times in the past two days, and I didn't think it was very scary. I looked under the bridge. It didn't matter. When I was about to turn back, a black object floated from the river.
"Huo Dadong?" I was surprised and unsure. Is this Huo Dadong's body?
Zhao Qian's beauty turned pale, and she looked into the river. Sure enough, it was Huo Dadong's body.
Huo Dadong raised his head and could clearly recognize it. .
"Zhao He, go pick him up!" I ordered. He had the experience of rescuing Kai Fu before. I found that he is better than me in terms of water quality. The key is that he has a strong yang energy, and ordinary Yin souls cannot enter, and I have a Yin energy. It's heavy, and I'm afraid of being pulled down by ghosts when I get into the water.
As a result, Zhao He's face was as bitter as Huang Lian's: "Brother... this... this is not good, people are dead, there are so many ghosts on the river, will anything happen if I go down?"
My face immediately darkened, and I became a little unhappy when I saw Zhao He not cooperating: "What? You have the strongest yang energy here. It's not dark yet. Do you want me or your sister to go down?"
"Brother...Brother Tian must have his own ideas. Be careful. I will give you an incense prayer table later. I will exorcise evil spirits for you as soon as you come up..." Zhao Qian saw the change in my expression and quickly shook her head. Zhao He's hand.
"Then... well, I'll go fish it out. If... if anything happens to me, Brother Tian, please take care of me and send my sister back to the city. We are from the Zhao family in the county..." Zhao He said with a sad face. , The words were full of pleading, and she looked like she had sacrificed her life heroically. Zhao Qian was the apple of their Zhao family's eye, and the old man cherished her very much, so nothing could happen to her.
Zhao Qian's eyes suddenly turned red. She wiped her tears with her sleeves and glanced at her brother. She couldn't say anything. After a while, she looked at me pleadingly: "This..."
"What nonsense are you talking about! Captain Huo is not dead. If you delay it any longer, he will probably die." I glared at the two brothers and sisters, dumbfounded. They probably thought Huo Dadong was dead.
In fact, Huo Dadong's life is very tough. If it were just a cliff, he would definitely be dead if he fell to the ground. However, the river saved him. Before he fell, he was just intoxicated. After falling into the river, his primitive desire for survival was aroused* *, relying on instinctive paddling, the person actually floated here on his back.
Huo Dadong couldn't see the ghosts, and his yang energy was still quite strong. I saw that although his face was full of black energy at this time, it seemed that he was being targeted by the ghosts in the water, but since there were still dirty things staring at him, it meant that he was not dead.
Zhao He was relieved. After burning incense and scattering paper, he jumped down when Huo Dadong crossed the bridge. However, Huo Dadong immediately struggled violently and tried to escape from Zhao He's rescue.
Zhao Heyi was frightened for a moment, but when he saw that Huo Dadong was just moving instinctively and was not dragging him into the water, he immediately felt relieved and knocked Huo Dadong unconscious by scraping it with both hands.
Thanks to Zhao He's muscles, he was able to support the stupid Huo Dadong. If it were me, I would probably sink with him in my arms.
After landing on the shore, Zhao Qian immediately started trying to get rid of the ghosts around her.
"Can you summon spirits?" I asked Zhao Qian.
Zhao Qian nodded.
"This is the lower reaches, flowing to a dead town. If my guess is correct, the souls trapped by the Yin soldiers will be introduced into this river. When the Yin Qi is heavy at night, the souls will soon pass through here. Captain Huo only lost a trace of his soul. , the body is here, it shouldn’t be difficult to bring it back.” After I thought of the ghosts at the bottom of Si Bridge, it was not difficult to guess the function of this river, it is a river for transporting souls.
I simply ate some roasted sweet potatoes. After dark, not even the dogs barked anymore, and the whole village was quiet.
Zhao Qian found the wallet on Huo Dadong's body, and got the birthday on the ID card. Although there were no horoscopes, it didn't bother her, after all, he was still here.
"The soul has gone and returned. The high hall is still there. The soul has gone and returned. There are weak children in the family. The soul has returned. The wife is mourning and longing..."
Zhao Qian recited the soul-calling spell loudly and waved the mahogany sword and bell to summon souls, while Zhao He held a folding umbrella, waiting for the soul to come at any time.
Yu Xiaoxue and I both have Yin Talismans, and we can clearly see the ghosts popping up in the river. As soon as Huo Dadong appeared, we all said it in unison.
In order to be able to distinguish the ghost of Huo Dadong, Zhao Qian and Zhao He wiped their eyes with cow tears burned with charms. It was not surprising that they could see it. It was obvious that we both said in unison, and we were stunned. If it was just me, how could I be connected? Can Yu Xiaoxue see it? Is this also an expert hermit?
It's not like that... I'm crying over two pieces of sugar cane today...
But Zhao Qian is a professional after all, so she immediately said: "Huo Dadong was born in 1970, his life span has not expired, and his body has not died... I am here now, and my soul has not returned to its place!"
With this shout, a trace of Huo Dadong's ghost wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to rush up. Zhao He was also happy to open his folding umbrella. As soon as Huo Dadong got on the bridge, he would pocket the ghost into the umbrella!
As a result, he was dragged back immediately before he could get out of the river!
Two Yin soldiers actually pulled him back to his original position and continued to escort him across the river.
Zhao Qian and Zhao He were both shocked that the Yin Soul could not reach the shore, because they could see the appearance of the two Yin soldiers.
I was also a little surprised. It seemed that it would be impossible without some violence. I immediately put my hands in my trouser pockets, preparing to release the little devil, even though I would lose some blood.
But just as I was about to take action, a black figure quietly came behind me in the direction of Xiaoyitun!
We are so close, I said, sister-in-law, you must have fallen asleep! ?
"Hey, are you summoning spirits?" The man greeted us with a voice like a drake.
