In heavy rain.
The tomb robber raised his hammer high.
Sudden.
"Damn! Dog thief!"
He was startled. He smashed the hammer crookedly, and the nail scratched the forehead of the corpse, lifting up a large piece of scalp.
The two hurriedly raised their heads, and in the rain curtain four or five people were looking at the guy angrily. It was Huang Wei and the others who were leaving and coming back.
"I said something was following us. It turned out to be two unscrupulous tomb robbers. Brothers, take them down and send them to the police!"
All the ghosts screamed and swarmed up.
Grave robbing is a serious crime, and if you are caught, you will have to shed your skin even if you don't die. Even if the two of them dared to surrender, they also picked up shovels and fought with their lives.
But once we fight.
The two tomb robbers sighed in relief. Although there were many people on the other side, they had no fighting experience and no rules. They just danced randomly with the guy in their hands.
The two looked at each other.
One person swept away the shovel handed randomly from the other side; the other saw the right moment, suddenly stepped forward, and slashed the yellow-haired man opposite him into the neck with a shovel.
The yellow-haired man immediately screamed and staggered to the ground, causing his other companions to scatter like frightened birds.
He laughed evilly, stepped on the yellow-haired man's chest, and wanted to take care of one first. But suddenly, he saw a shovel in his hand from the corner of his eye.
The heavy rain washed away the soil, and the shovel mouth was bright white.
"Big, big brother."
His tongue trembled.
"What's wrong?" His companion protected him, "Are you injured?"
"No, no blood!"
The companion was surprised to see that there was no trace of blood on the shovel mouth. But just now, even though the heavy rain blurred his vision, he could clearly see that the shovel had clearly cut into the opponent's neck.
It enters the flesh without blood.
In other words... the two of them looked at each other in horror, only to find that the furry faces on the ground were also frightened, with dilated pupils facing directly behind them.
"pain."
The vague and pitiful moans were like poisonous snakes quietly emerging from the darkness, and the cold, wet snake body wrapped around the back of the person's neck.
"it hurts!"
"So hungry!"
"It's so cold!"
One was fiercer than the other, and the other was mournful.
finally.
"Dog thief! Dog thief!! Dog thief!!! Die, die!"
The low moans turned into gnashing curses, echoing in the wilderness in the heavy rain.
The two turned back stiffly.
But I saw pitch-black filth pouring out of three tombs. The thing looked like a living person stopped in the process of melting. It was half human form and half corpse water, entangled with each other.
There were three dry and rotten human faces at the top. They were crying, wailing, and cursing. Then they stopped talking at the same time. Six bulging eyeballs turned around and stared at the two living people.
"Ghost!"
With the scream, the thing suddenly rose up and opened into a large black net, rushing towards the tomb robbers and the yellow tail on the ground, trying to swallow them whole.
"Hurry up like a law."
Suddenly a paper bird passed through the rain curtain, and golden light suddenly appeared.
The fierce ghost screamed and flew away.
far away.
A figure wearing a raincoat strode over.
More paper birds fluttered in the rain.
The fierce ghost circled for a moment, and then fell into the vast rain.
…………
"Why are you here, Taoist Priest?"
"I helped Dahan and the others negotiate the price. I heard that you had taken on a big business, and I was worried that you might not be able to keep up with it, so I rushed over here to help."
Li Changan opened his sleeves, and the paper birds shook off the rainwater on their "wing feathers" and jumped into the sleeves one after another.
"You are too sloppy in your business. You dare to take over even if there is a ghost hidden in the corpse?"
Huangwei nodded and bowed to express his thanks. He was shocked, but he still flattered him as usual.
The Taoist priest refused to accept his trick: "What are the origins of these three people? There is so much resentment!"
There were rumors about the fight, and Huang Wei finally told it.
After a lot of embarrassment and jealousy, he still cursed to himself: "I never thought that those two scoundrels had no moral integrity at all, but they didn't punish these three brothers."
"Open the evil?"
"The Taoist priest doesn't know how to deal with the evil?"
"The only thing I know is that after a person dies, ghosts will take their souls home for the first seven days. What will happen if they accidentally collide with each other? But from what I have seen and heard, it is mostly unscrupulous warlocks who take the opportunity to make money, or there are some. Evil things are causing trouble.”
Speaking of evil things, Li Changan naturally thought of a name.
"Is it Cave City again?"
"It has nothing to do with Cave City." Huang Wei hesitated for a moment, "At least it doesn't have much to do with it."
This was rare. Li Changan thought that whatever bad things Qian Tang did would eventually fall on the Ghost King.
Huang Wei explained: "I don't know what it is like in other places, but in Qiantang, after some people die, their souls will stay in their bodies. The body is dead, but the soul is 'alive'. Does Taoist Master still remember what A Zhi was like at that time?"
"In agony?"
"That's right. I've heard from people who have experienced death that the soul is in the corpse at that time. The eyes can't see, the ears can't hear, the mouth can't speak, and the nose can't smell. However, the soul is still connected with the body. First, the blood no longer flows. It felt like pinpricks and numbness. Then I felt that my body was gradually starting to decay, attracting flies and giving birth to maggots."
"Over time, no matter how pure and kind a person was during his lifetime, he will be tortured into a vicious ghost."
"So when people in Qian Tang Dynasty die, no matter whether they are rich or poor, wise or foolish, relatives, friends and even neighbors will pay money to invite the evil spirits under the ghost king to bring evil spirits to the deceased. In fact, it is to liberate the soul from the corpse."
"If you don't open the evil spirit, your soul won't be able to come out?"
"That's not the case. I've heard that the souls of corpses can escape when they're badly rotten, but they turn into ghosts when they're dead, so they're bound to cause trouble."
"How long have the three brothers been dead?"
Huangwei gritted his teeth and said, "The fight will take place in late May or early June."
No wonder he is so cruel.
Li Changan jumped into the coffin, looked through it carefully, and found some wax mud washed away by the rain on the top of the body, and found a long nail next to it.
Huangwei said that the spikes were brought by tomb robbers.
"They are not grave robbers." The Taoist priest threw the long nails into the arms of the tied "grave robbers". "These are cursed coffin nails, which are used to kill resentful souls."
There was no need to torture them severely. They just pressed the two of them into the coffin, drank a few sips of muddy water, and then explained everything clearly.
Niu Shi and Qu Dingchun were able to gain a foothold in Dongwazi. They had dealt with all three religions and nine schools, and they also had a little understanding of the other side of Qian Tang. The three brothers were hanged in front of the door. Qu Dingchun, perhaps to vent his anger, or perhaps with a different dark intention, asked a wizard to seal the souls of the three brothers. It took him nearly a month to hand over the bodies and wait for him. Shi was troubled by the evil ghost.
But Niu Shi was also a ruthless man. On the surface, he wanted to give the three brothers a grand burial, but secretly he sent people to nail their souls into the corpses with coffin nails. Once and for all, they would never be reincarnated.
After listening, even if everyone is a ghost, they still feel shuddering.
What evil spirits and evil men!
"There is no need to feel sorry for those three brothers." Huang Wei called on everyone to refill the tomb with soil. "When they were alive, they were also evil and ruthless people in the market. Whether they were tortured by Niu Qu or the other two and turned into evil ghosts, they could go back to find Niu and Qu. Regardless of revenge, it's dog eating dog and has nothing to do with us."
The ghosts were still frightened and responded one after another.
Li Changan shook his head.
Huang Wei is usually very bold and dares to interfere in anything, but at this critical moment, he shrinks back when he is frightened by the evil ghost.
How could it be irrelevant?
It's a big deal.
