The abandoned house is located on a slope covered with weeds. There is only a dilapidated stone staircase leading to it, but the staircase is also covered with grass.
Sun Lan took off the knife from his back and pushed aside the grass to explore the way.
It is a place that is worthy of being called an abandoned house. It is so abandoned.
I haven't even walked in yet, but after taking a quick look at it from a distance, I felt a little nervous.
But Sun Lan was determined today.
He must show his courage and no longer be as timid as when Tong Yizhen killed the monkey spirit.
We must rely on this mission to earn back the face we lost before!
Even though my heart was pounding, I still tried my best to overcome it.
If you can't overcome this hurdle, it will be difficult to become a qualified demon slayer.
Since some civilians have reported that there is a resentful spirit here, we might as well live in the deserted house tonight and meet the resentful spirit for a while!
As long as he can kill the evil thing alone this time, Sun Lan can regain the right to speak.
When I see Niu Yuanping in the future, I will be able to walk straighter!
At this time, Sun Lan, who felt a little flustered, secretly gave herself a big mouth.
Secretly encouraging himself, he said, "Let's fight for your reputation!... If that loser can do it, I can do it too!"
Cheer up.
A creak.
He pushed open the tattered wooden door.
He immediately saw that the yard was also covered with weeds. At this time, the sun was setting, and the abandoned house began to appear dark and desolate.
Where are the resentful spirits?
"By the way, you can use cow's tears."
So Sun Lan's hand hurriedly reached for the pocket on his waist.
However, this touch didn't matter, his expression changed instantly.
"Oops!... I was just rushing here, but I forgot to get the cow's tears!..."
It’s really unreliable...
It was the first time I decided to slay the demon alone. I just came here secretly and in a hurry, but I didn’t prepare anything!
"This is how to do?"
Without cow tears, it would be difficult to find traces of resentful spirits.
At this time, as soon as it got dark, standing in the house overgrown with grass, he felt even more panicked.
Some regrets.
Too anxious, too eager to perform meritorious service, but did not prepare the necessary tools to slay the demon, nor did he carefully inquire about the details of the resentful spirit...
My mind was hot and I came, but I didn't expect to be hit by reality so quickly.
"What should I do? Go back?..."
It's really embarrassing to go back in such a dejected state.
He doesn't look like a man at all, he is really too embarrassed!
I thought to myself, I have to survive at least one night, and whether I kill the resentful spirit or not, I will have an explanation when I go back.
Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll never be able to hold my head high again in the Demon Suppression Division. This would be really embarrassing and embarrassing!
We have to hold on for one night and wait until dawn tomorrow!
He gritted his teeth, gritted his teeth, and continued to walk in.
Entering the house, Sun Lan quickly lit the lamp.
In this way, even if the resentful spirit comes, you can still see its appearance clearly. Otherwise, it will be so dark that I feel really unsure.
Just like that, he held the knife tightly and sat in front of the candle.
With the help of light, my eyes are observing the surroundings all the time, and my ears are listening carefully to the movements from all directions.
It lasted until late at night.
Didn't see anything unusual.
The tension in my heart has disappeared by more than half.
I thought, "How can there be any resentful spirit... It must have been made up by a few timid civilians."
Just thinking about it this way, my mood gradually calmed down.
Just close your eyes and squint for a while.
Unexpectedly, the wind suddenly started blowing at night.
The wind blew open the half-broken door, almost blew out the lamp, and woke up the sleepy Sun Lan.
He quickly fixed his eyes and looked outside!
It was pitch black, and plants and trees half as tall as a man were vaguely swaying in the wind.
At first glance, it looks like a ghost standing there and showing off.
The timid Sun Lan was so shocked that she had goosebumps all over her body.
Holding the knife, he observed it carefully for a while before confirming that there was nothing unusual.
I couldn't help but cursed secretly, "Those damn weeds!... If I had known, I would have cut down the tall grass and trees before it got dark!... Otherwise, we would not be in danger now..."
But now I don’t want to bother with that anymore.
He quickly moved a piece of wood to block the door, and sat in front of the light in the corner, watching the goings-on around him all the time.
This excitement made Sun Lan completely sleepless.
Not long after, he suddenly felt that the wind noise outside began to get louder!
"what the hell?……"
This wind is blowing a bit strangely!
Sun Lan couldn't help but become flustered again.
There was a layer of sweat in the palm of the hand that was holding the handle of the knife, and it was a little sticky.
"Could it be that...the resentful spirit is here?"
Sudden!
A strong wind roared into the house and blew out the lights!
Sun Lan was so frightened that she stood up immediately, trembling and looking pale.
Keng! ——
He quickly pulled out the knife.
According to the method taught by the master, the soul energy is emitted from the Dantian of one's soul.
Quickly get into position and get ready for battle!
Soon, the wind became stronger and stronger.
The walls and windows rattled, as if the devil's nails were clawing at the wall.
This scene reminded Sun Lan of what the old man said during the day about the haunted house, and all the hairs on his body suddenly stood up.
"Sure enough, there are evil spirits and demons!!"
But where? !
Holding the knife tightly, I circled around the room, but I could only hear the wind getting stronger and stronger, but I couldn't see the resentful spirit!
There was a strange crackling noise and a roaring sound outside.
suddenly!
There was a click.
The strange wind blew away the dilapidated door!
Grass leaves mixed with dust and sawdust hit Sun Lan in the face.
"Oh my goodness!!--"
The dust hit my eyes, which made them hurt, I couldn't open them, and tears flowed down my face.
In panic, he kept waving the demon-slaying knife.
"Go away!—go away!!—"
This is really fatal!
I can't see clearly, I can't figure out the situation, I just feel like the evil spirit is staring behind me!
Fear spread rapidly in his heart.
What a powerful evil spirit!
Not an opponent!
He swung the knife indiscriminately and rubbed his fascinated eyes randomly.
Finally I have a little bit of perspective!
He quickly picked up the demon-slaying knife and quickly escaped from the deserted house.
Sun Lan ran wildly among the grass and trees in the strong wind.
Suddenly, without paying attention, the sole of my foot slipped and I fell into the mud.
Fell into a ditch.
Unexpectedly, he fainted after this fall.
…
When he woke up, it was already bright.
Sun Lan felt uncomfortable all over after being blown by the wind all night. His teeth were chattering and he was sweating profusely.
Soon, passers-by discovered him and asked him what happened.
He said, "Then...the resentful spirits in the deserted house were so powerful!! When...when I came out, I looked back and saw a man on the beam with very long hair!! You thousands of people Don’t come close! Please help me come back when I get back!”
Passers-by were confused.
"What kind of ghost?"
Sun Lan became a little impatient, "Aren't you the ones who reported to the Yamen that there were resentful spirits?! I am a demon slayer, and I came here specifically to kill the resentful spirits!"
He was really in a bad mood.
I was unconscious in the strong wind all night. My body was sore and painful, and I felt extremely uncomfortable.
"I won't tell you anymore. I need to go back and report the situation as soon as possible!"
After saying that, he limped away and ran away.
After Sun Lan ran away, passers-by stood on the roadside and started talking, "How could there be a resentful spirit? I've never heard of a resentful spirit in our Nigou Village..."
Another person thought for a while and said, "It must be Old Yangtou who caused the ghost! Seeing that this man is from out of town, I lied to him that there was a ghost. So that he would not dare to live here!"
At this time, others suddenly realized, "Yes! It must be Old Yangtou! His son runs an inn!..."
It turns out that the old man Sun Lan met yesterday was Lao Yangtou.
In addition, it was also strange that Sun Lan had no experience in killing monsters. In his nervousness and impatience, he actually went to the wrong village and came to Nigou Village!
This is not the Yuke Village where there were reports of resentful spirits at all...
