In the pouring rain, Zhao Ziliang carried the coffin and followed behind Shen Lin.
In the past few days, after he confirmed that Shen Lin had no intention of abandoning or deceiving him, he had found his position. He took the initiative to take over the important task of guarding the ghost mother in the past few days. As long as he could find Fengmen Village, Zhao Ziliang didn't mind. Do some menial and tiring work.
To use a relatively common saying, if you make money, don’t shiver.
"What did you find?" Zhao Ziliang asked in a hoarse voice. It was extremely strange to make such a sound in a mountain village late at night, and it scared away many animals around him.
"That's right." Shen Lin kept walking. The heavy rain was very muddy and he couldn't move forward, so he had to activate the Ghost Domain to open up a path.
"I have been thinking about what my third uncle said these past few days. Even though his eyes are dim and dim, he still murmurs those words to himself. This shows that the words themselves are very important to him and contain important information."
Zhao Ziliang nodded in agreement. There was nothing wrong with his words. If a person is demented to a certain extent and still misses something, it is definitely the deepest obsession in his heart.
"He said he was from Changshou Village, not Fengmen Village. At first, I thought he was an eyewitness to the Fengmen Village incident. Because of his unexpected move to Changshou Village, the horror made him keep secret about most things in Fengmen Village for the rest of his life. No, Dare to speak out for outsiders, this matter has become the deepest obsession in his heart, so much so that even when he is so dim-sighted, he still never forgets it."
Zhao Ziliang nodded, with a puzzled expression on his covered face. There seemed to be nothing wrong with the sentence itself, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with the analysis. A demented old man might want to express something, but his current state made it possible for him to be vague. Expression, that is to say, the sentence itself is most likely confusing. If you insist on analyzing it, you may not be able to analyze it.
"Then? Do you suspect that Fengmen Village itself is not far from us? Or even near Changshou Village?" Zhao Ziliang wondered.
If this was the case, then their unjust journey these days was almost in vain. They searched many places around them, but they didn't find anything near Changshou Village. This was the result of the darkness under the lamp.
In the heavy rain, Shen Lin's forward movement finally stopped. His calm eyes mixed with wisdom looked at the village behind him with an indescribable light.
"No, it's even closer, far away in the horizon and right before our eyes."
Zhao Ziliang's steps also stopped, as if he thought of something, he turned back suddenly, trying to see clearly the village he walked out of through the heavy rain.
At the same time, Shen Lin's cold voice was like a sharp sword cutting through the night.
"Changshou Village! It's Fengmen Village!"
This is an extremely terrifying thought, which means that they were once very close to that terrifying village, and if there was even the slightest mistake in their sleep, they would have been devoured by the ghosts.
High-level ghost realms are backward compatible. You can't detect it, but it can easily affect you.
This is what happened to the couriers at the ghost post office in the recovery.
If Shen Lin's prediction was correct, they would have been on the verge of life and death almost all the time these four days, which was simply terrifying to think about.
Shen Lin's eyes shone with a different light in the rainy night. He looked at the familiar village in front of him with fear like a tiger or a wolf.
He speculated that some villagers should have survived the Fengmen Village incident, and some outsiders, mixed with them, settled on the disappeared site of Fengmen Village, and gradually built it into today's Changshou Village.
The third uncle is most likely one of the people who survived that year. The reason why he is still waiting here is unknown. It may be that he wants to find out everything about that year, or it may be that he is getting old and returning to his hometown makes him feel more at ease.
It is more likely that the ghost controller who took action back then told them something, allowing the surviving people of Fengmen Village to guard here, which can be regarded as prohibiting the entry of outsiders, and accidentally opening Fengmen, which became a ghost village. A tool for the village.
Everything is possible.
The deeper he goes into the Fengmen Village incident and the more he learns about everything in the past, the more Shen Lin feels the horror of this strange village.
In a ghost village that had been banned by the previous generation of ghost controllers and even had to arrange for a ghost watcher, the horror in it might be beyond his imagination, and the ghost pawn shop was using his hand to open it all, and he had no choice at all.
"You mean, Fengmen Village is right in front of us, but we can't see it? What is this? The ability of ghosts? Or some kind of special ghost realm?"
No fool can become a ghost controller, especially a lone wolf like Zhao Ziliang. He keenly guessed something from Shen Lin's words.
"The abilities of ghosts are ever-changing, but we know too little. The ghost realm itself is also divided into high and low levels. If the ghost realm is divided into ten levels, then the level to which Fengmen Village belongs is at least the fifth level or even higher. Then It's almost across the dimensional gap, even if he is right in front of us, we can't feel it."
Shen Lin slowly revealed part of the information about the ghost realm. He didn't mind sharing it with Zhao Ziliang at this time. The terror inside Fengmen Village was beyond imagination. Under the suppression of the high-level ghost realm, the ghost-like ghost realm could exert its full potential. The effect may be minimal.
In order to prevent Zhao Ziliang from doing something stupid in the process and disturbing the sleeping evil spirits in the village, and to gain some of Zhao Ziliang's trust, Shen Lin chose to reveal part of the information.
Sure enough, Zhao Ziliang's body trembled slightly after hearing this. Most of the ghost controller's knowledge of ghosts came from his own explorations between life and death, and most of his knowledge was very vague concepts. Few people like Shen Lin. Tell it clearly.
This made Zhao Ziliang feel more and more extraordinary about Shen Lin.
"Incredible." Zhao Ziliang couldn't help but sigh.
"But if this is the case and the gap between the two sides is so big, how can you open the way to Fengmen Village?"
Shen Lin slowly moved forward to take the golden coffin that suppressed the ghost mother from Zhao Ziliang's hand, and slowly placed his hand on the lid of the golden coffin.
"It's like a closed door. You have two ways to open it. Use sheer force to force the door open, or find the key."
Zhao Ziliang understood. What Shen Lin had in his hand was the key, a ghost's key.
"Now, let's see what the legendary Fengmen Village looks like."
"Bang~"
The sound of the coffin being gently opened spread around in the rainy night, and the dark red ghost realm of Shen Lin directly enveloped everything around him. He only dared to open a small gap in the golden coffin, but even so, the horror hidden inside the coffin It also made Zhao Zi's conscience tingle.
He seemed to hear a roar like a wild beast, and there was something in the golden coffin that opened a crack, eager to come out.
The dark red ghost realm surged, and Shen Lin used all his strength to suppress everything. The level of the fully revived ghost phase ghost realm increased again. He tried to suppress the ghost realm to prevent the ghost mother from breaking free.
But, an accident happened!
Like the fog after a heavy rain, traces of gray breath began to spread from the edge of Shen Lin's ghost domain. It was the erosion from the ghosts, and Shen Lin's eyes showed horror.
He originally thought that even if the current ghost phase could do nothing against the ghost mother, with the seal of the golden coffin and the ghost realm of the ghost phase, it would at least be able to suppress it for a moment until Fengmen Village was induced by the ghost mother and appeared.
But everything in front of him is almost incomprehensible. The ferocity of the ghost mother is far beyond Shen Lin's imagination. According to this erosion speed, it will only take less than a minute for the ghost mother to completely erode the ghost realm of the ghost phase, and Completely broke free from the golden coffin.
"Help!" Shen Lin roared.
Zhao Ziliang woke up from a dream. The fear in front of him made his mind a little dazed. He could feel that the ghost suppressed in the golden coffin was more ferocious than any ghost he had ever encountered. It was so terrifying. It was enough to wake Zhao Ziliang from his nightmare in the middle of the night.
"grass!"
Zhao Ziliang roared and moved forward, and his wrapped body suddenly stretched out its ghost claws like wild beasts.
He knew that now was not the time to refuse or be timid. Even running away now would be of no use. If the evil spirit in the coffin escaped, he would have no room for resistance. Zhao Ziliang knew this very well.
The gap in the golden coffin is getting bigger little by little, as if the small gap allows the ghost's power to be vented. An unparalleled force comes from the golden coffin. Zhao Ziliang's resistance can only slow down this expanding trend. A few points, but in the end it was a drop in the bucket.
At this moment, something incomprehensible happened in front of him.
The dilapidated Changshou Village seemed to be distorted by some strange force. In the illusion, Shen Lin seemed to see the shadow of another village.
It was a village shrouded in darkness, unable to see the whole picture. Shen Lin heard a few children's play, neighbors' laughter and curses, and even a few women's cries from the pitch-black darkness.
It is illogical for such a scene to appear in a ghost village that has disappeared for decades.
Horror, unspeakable horror.
Everything in Fengmen Village is like a mirage, allowing people to experience reality in illusion.
Appeared! Zhao Zi's conscience was overjoyed, everything was just as Shen Lin had guessed.
The next second, the joy in Zhao Ziliang's conscience turned into panic. Red blood slowly seeped out from the dark gap in the golden coffin. The smelly smell filled the surroundings. Through the scarlet blood, Zhao Ziliang even saw a pair of Gray eyes.
That look made his soul tremble, and a huge fear enveloped him, as if he would turn into a corpse in the next second.
grass! Shen Lin almost cursed, the ghost mother's struggle was much more intense than he imagined.
"You come and hold the coffin, and I'll think of a solution!"
As soon as he finished speaking, dark red light flashed, and the next second Shen Lin appeared next to the bleeding gap, gritted his teeth, and his right hand wrapped in dark red light suddenly reached into the golden coffin.
He seemed to have touched something in the darkness, a wrinkled skin, a rotting corpse, and with the roar, the Upside Down Ghost's ability exploded.
Finally, the oozing blood stopped for half a minute.
It was only half a minute. Zhao Ziliang seized the opportunity. Zhao Ziliang, who had become a half-ghost, vented all his strength. With the cracks in the bones of Shen Lin's right hand, the golden coffin finally closed in response.
In the pouring rain, the two of them collapsed on the ground, panting in embarrassment.
