The Exorcist

Chapter 37 The fish that slipped through the net

A cool breeze blew up, causing goosebumps all over Xiaoxia's body. She understood that something evil was causing trouble again, but now she had no choice. She gritted her teeth and walked in the direction of the vine.

Ruan Zhan said it well: Don’t be surprised if you are surprised, you will lose yourself if you are surprised! For the one she loves, she is not afraid of anything!

Under the stars and moon, on the quiet mountain road, Xiaoxia held a charm in each hand and walked forward step by step. The gravel underfoot creaked and squeaked. This sound could not be heard at all during the day, and even if it was heard clearly, it would be deafening. It seemed particularly scary at night.

In front of her, the woman in black was still walking. There was no shadow or footsteps, but she was blocking Xiao Xia's path from left to right. Sometimes, she would disappear suddenly, and then run behind Xiaoxia and ask for directions.

Xiaoxia knew that the female ghost in black was here to haunt her, and the black eyes on her white face looked so haunting that it made people feel numb. But Xiaoxia forced herself to be patient and allowed the other party to repeat the same behavior over and over again. She ignored her in the spirit of "Don't offend me, I won't offend others." But after she walked for a long time, she finally found that she had been wandering under a cliff. , had to squat down and pick up a small stone.

Bao Datong said that the small magic that Ruan Zhan taught her, combined with the earth magic in the Five Elements Forbidden Technique, can break the ordinary barrier, which is also a ghost wall. Generally speaking, the soul creates a barrier like Ghost Wall to do good deeds. There may be some unfavorable conditions ahead. Xiaoxia heard that during the Tangshan earthquake, a driver was driving on the road to Tangshan. He couldn't get out no matter what, so he escaped.

But since she came into contact with supernatural events, every time she encountered a ghost, the other party had malicious intentions. It wasn't because she was unlucky, but every time she encountered them, they were hostile, so now she has nothing to do. Polite.

As she walked, she put the talisman in her right hand back into her pocket, then groped for it, found the earth talisman by feel, and slowly wrapped it around the stones. God bless me, this road is a gravel road with lots of small stones.

"What are you doing?" The female ghost in black was walking slowly in front, but suddenly appeared behind Xiaoxia and asked sharply.

Even though she knew there was such a powerful figure on the mountain path, Xiaoxia was still frightened again, and in a panic, she cast the wooden talisman in her left hand. The female ghost in black was too close to her, so the talisman was almost directly thrust into the female ghost's hand, the white hand holding the faint green phosphorus fire!

The female ghost let out a scream that Xiaoxia had never heard before, and flew into the air like a gust of black wind and disappeared.

"Leverage Taishan, General Shi, hit!" Xiaoxia yelled out the spell, and at the same time knocked out the stone wrapped in the earth charm, and then ran up the mountain. Even though she felt like the wind was whistling above her head and something seemed to be following her, she was determined not to look back. Sure enough, after running for a while, she saw a small bamboo building appearing in front of the road, and behind the building were the three forked roads, the shortest of which led to Naman Village.

Naman's name flashed in Xiaoxia's mind, and her heart immediately warmed up, because it meant Abai, and Abai meant Ruan Zhan's life. But at this moment, the sound of wind above the head suddenly became louder, and along with a burst of cold air, a black cloud swooped down!

When Xiaoxia was short, she had no time to use the Five Elements Forbidden Technique, so she had to pull off the bone chain around her neck and swing it upward like a weapon. This bone chain is not as protective as the amulet, and it does not respond quickly to evil objects. However, because the power of the bone chain's spell was stimulated by the people on the tractor just now, the red light suddenly burst out at this moment, and it really turned the black The shadows dispersed.

However, although the attack of the black shadow was repelled, the surrounding roads were quickly covered by a black mist, and only the bamboo tower still stood there clearly.

Xiaoxia didn't know if the female ghost in black deliberately forced her into the bamboo building, but she had no other place to go, so she lost her mind and ran outside the bamboo building. Before she could knock on the door, The door of the bamboo house opened with a clang, a hand stretched out and pulled Xiaoxia in.

"Shh, don't make any noise." A hand covered her mouth, while a strange voice sounded in her ears, "This place is not clean, don't bring them in!"

Xiao Xia stood there, stunned for a moment and didn't respond. Then her eyes lit up and an oil lamp lit up, dazzling in front of her eyes. Finally, it landed on the table. She blinked hard twice and then looked at it. Sitting at the clear table was the male owner of this wild shop.

He pointed behind Xiaoxia, and Xiaoxia was so nervous that she almost jumped away, but he said, "Did you see the wooden board on the door? That's the evil spirit the god gave me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to keep this small shop."

Xiao Xia turned around and took a look, and sure enough she saw a wooden board about a foot square hanging behind the bamboo door. There were strange words and graphics painted on the board. Even in such a dark environment, you could see a little silver light shining on the board. .

"Don't worry, they have been making trouble for a while. With this magic card, they can't get in." The store owner saw that Xiaoxia was still a little worried and said quickly.

Xiao Xia was dubious, then looked back at her boss, and saw that his face was indeed something she recognized. She walked closer and saw his figure under the oil lamp. Recalling the feeling just now, it seemed that the hand he held hers was warm. It should be It's people.

But she was worried, so she held the bone chain tightly in her hand, moved closer, and sat at the table, facing the shop owner.

"What happened here again?" she asked, always keeping a wary distance.

The shop owner sighed.

"I heard that you donated money to the village chief of Naman to build roads. Building bridges and repairing roads is a good deed to accumulate virtue." The shop owner said, "When the village chief of Naman Village mentioned this matter, the three nearby villages We were all very happy. After discussing it, we raised some additional money and each contributed labor to build a simple gravel road. However, not long after the road was repaired, something happened. There were several people in Najin Village that day. The young people wanted to go down the mountain to do some errands, so they took the newly bought tractor from the village and went down together. It was already dark after they finished their work, but because they were in a hurry to return to the village, they felt that the road had been repaired and the moon was shining brightly, so they rushed back overnight. Who would have thought that his uncle Tu Shui, who was driving the tractor, might be too tired. By accident, the entire tractor flipped over into the mountain stream. Oh, it was so tragic. All the people in the truck died. Not only did they fall, but the whole tractor also fell into the mountain stream. It was smashed to pieces.”

"Then it's not peaceful here?" Xiaoxia asked suspiciously. As far as she knows, most of the people in this mountain are simple and kind-hearted. Even if they die violently, they will not come out to harm others!

But the shop owner nodded and said: "Yes, not long after these poor ghosts were buried, the place started to be noisy. Every night at this time, there would be the sound of tractors passing by the door of the shop. Sometimes, they would even knock on the door. The door was banging, and he said: Boss, bring me a bowl of water." As he spoke, he knocked on the bamboo table. His tone and accent were weird because he was not proficient in Chinese. At this moment, he was holding his voice while trying to speak. He was so frightened. Xiaoxia was covered in white sweat and looked at the boss with some reproach.

But just at this glance, Xiao Xia suddenly realized that something was wrong with her boss. He does have a human body, but is he really a human? Why does Xiaoxia feel that his eyes are the same as those of the female ghost in black and the eyes hidden behind Tu Shui's face? He is dark and flexible, and although he looks beautiful, his eyes are mixed with excitement, hatred and gloom, which makes people feel terrified.

"Miss Yue, do you want a bowl of water?" the shop owner suddenly asked.

Xiaoxia sat up straight, one hand hurt from holding the bone chain tightly, and the other hand holding the charm was wet with sweat. She looked at the shop owner warily and nodded.

"Okay, I'll ask my wife to bring it to you. She's always here to entertain guests." He stood up and slowly walked upstairs, mumbling something in his mouth. His footsteps made the stairs make a sharp and long sound. moan.

Xiaoxia had been here before and knew that the store owner's family stayed upstairs, so when the store owner's figure turned into the corner, he quickly jumped up and ran towards the door. She understood that something must have happened to the shop owner and his family. She sympathized with her and wanted to help, but now she was a mud Buddha crossing the river and could not save herself. Besides, Ruan Zhan was more important to her than anything else. Even if everyone in the world was going to die, she would not Save him first!

But the door can't be opened!

Xiaoxia reached for the wooden sign, but her hand passed through the wooden sign, and it turned out to be an illusion. She swept away the talisman in her hand, and the illusion disappeared. As the illusion disappeared, the entire bamboo building also disappeared. There was a large open space in front of her. Only then did Xiaoxia realize that she was still in a dense forest at the foot of the mountain and had not gone up the mountain at all.

"Where are you going? Don't you want some water?" said a woman's voice from behind.

Xiao Xia turned her head in shock and saw the proprietress standing there holding a bowl of water, looking at her with a vicious look on her face, "I hate customers like you the most. You just spend a few store dollars and torment people. Do you want to drink?" "In my impression, the landlady doesn't speak Chinese, but now she speaks very smooth, standard Mandarin.

Xiaoxia said nothing and quietly observed her surroundings, ready to escape at any time.

"You don't want to drink?" The landlady's eyes widened angrily, "I'll feed you!" She said and rushed over. The liquid in the bowl spilled all over the floor, and there was a disgusting fishy smell, which turned out to be blood. However, although she pounced fiercely, her movements were clumsy, and her feet made a thumping sound. It was obviously the real human body, but it was controlled by other things.

Xiao Xia San ran away from her after two runs and hid behind a big tree. He peeked out secretly and found that the woman had lost her target. Holding the blood bowl, she stood in the forest clearing under the moonlight, her eyes moving rapidly, but she didn't notice Xiaoxia hiding in the shadows. She stood for a long time, and when Xiaoxia could hardly bear it, she left bitterly.

Xiaoxia breathed a sigh of relief and almost sat on the ground.

If there were only shadows, they might be zombies, but although the store owner and his wife moved clumsily and stiffly, they had heat and heavy breathing. From the appearance, it didn't look like they were physically dead, but they might be possessed. In this case, if the dark eyes behind her were aimed at her, as long as she leaves, the shop owner and his wife should be able to recover. Even if not, Ruan Zhan can come to help them when he recovers, or even Bao Datong can handle it.

The problem is that she has to leave as soon as possible and find Abai as soon as possible. Also, the shop owner’s family has a lovely little daughter. Where is she?

"Come with me." A hand pulled Xiaoxia's ankle, which almost frightened Xiaoxia to death, but she swallowed her scream for fear of attracting the shop owner and his wife.

Looking down, she saw a pair of white and tender little hands stretching out from the green grass and grabbing the corners of her pants. In the grass was a delicate little face with a dull expression, staring at her. Behind that human face, you can still find the presence of the pair of black eyes.

"My father and mother are obsessed with ghosts, I will take you away!" The little girl slowly got up and shrank to Xiaoxia like a snake. Because Xiaoxia was sitting, she couldn't run away for a while, so she had to watch her slowly come closer.

"Who is sister looking for? I will take sister to find her." Those eyes were full of smiles.

Xiaoxia really couldn't stand the numb feeling from her shoulders to her whole body, so she pushed her away suddenly and jumped up, "Stop making trouble! I have no enmity with you, stay away from me!"

"What did sister say? I just want to help." The little girl approached Xiaoxia again.

"Stop!" Xiaoxia yelled, and suddenly realized that if the owner of those black eyes wanted to harm her, he could only possess the body of one person at a time. In fact, the shop owner and the proprietress did appear separately. Yes, since she only has to face a physical attack from a body and the control from behind by a soul, there is no need to be too afraid.

"Sister, don't point that at me, I'm afraid." The little girl looked very scared and pointed at Xiaoxia's hand, and because Xiaoxia's hand holding the bone chain was stretched forward, the bone chain was already gone at this moment. Emits a faint glow. However, Xiaoxia felt that although the other party had some scruples, he was not very afraid.

"Don't do this, what are you going to do?" Xiaoxia's anxiety outweighed her fear, and she said loudly: "Don't mess with me, otherwise -"

"Otherwise what? With your little ability?" The little girl suddenly stopped pretending and spoke in a different tone, completely like an adult woman. "And I can see clearly that you came alone this time. That powerful man didn’t follow you. Why, he abandoned you? Haha, I’m just saying, how can a man like a woman as unattractive as you!"

Xiao Xia was surprised. Hearing the other party's tone, he knew about Ruan Zhan's existence and their relationship. Who was she? Could it be an old friend?

"Do you think I'm afraid of you?" The other party continued: "I'm just testing in different ways to see if the man is hiding behind. If I scare you like this, and he still doesn't come out, it proves that he hasn't come at all. Even if he comes, I won’t care about you!”

"So it's A-Zhan you're afraid of!" Xiaoxia sneered, and quietly retreated to a relatively safe distance, "Are you so sure that he didn't come? If he comes, can you still be the one who slipped through the net? Even if If he really didn't come, couldn't I have other great friends? Otherwise, how could I know magic?"

"You see, there's no need to show off, it's just a little magic. You've already leaked it before I even started to do it." The other party sneered: "Now that I want you to die, it's easier than squeezing an ant to death."

"Then why don't you do it, Hong Hao!" Xiaoxia took another step back and leaned against the big tree to make it easier to borrow wood.

The other party laughed wildly, his temperament completely inconsistent with that slender and delicate body, "You're smart, you actually thought it was me!" She saw that she was seen through, she stopped pretending, and got out of this body!
