Volume 1 Chapter 021: Ghost Covering the Eyes
The surroundings were filled with corpses, both male and female, and at a glance there were at least seven or eight of them. There were still mud stains on their bodies, and it was obvious that they had just crawled out of the grave.
My mind was confused. In fact, in the eyes of our profession, it is normal for corpses to rise. Because after death, people are pure yin and need to be buried. Once the corpse still contains a breath of yang, it may rise, which is commonly known as the corpse.
My family has been in this business for quite a while, and we have seen many corpses resurrected, but we have never seen such a large-scale one like today, and these corpses have been buried underground for one or two months or even more than half a year! This is completely beyond my understanding!
Fortunately, although these corpses looked scary, they were just some rotten corpses after all. Although they were strangely strong, they moved slowly and seemed to have no intelligence. They could only follow me with their heads tilted. I used my hands and feet to jump out of the encirclement. At this moment, I suddenly saw a red shadow flash among the corpses. The ghost girl from the Liu family floated quietly to my left.
I quickly lowered my head and closed my eyes, turned around and tried to run away. I reached into my pocket, grabbed a handful of fine sand, and threw it out! I didn't care whether I hit the target or not. I threw a few more handfuls of sand, roared, and rushed forward with my eyes closed based on my memory. I felt that I bumped into someone who was slightly shorter than me and didn't have that rancid smell. I immediately hugged her by the waist and threw forward with all my strength, pressing her to the ground.
I only heard a "hmm" sound, and it should be a little girl. I didn't care about anything else, one hand hugged her neck, and with the other hand took out the corpse rope that my third uncle gave me, and tied it around me. But I closed my eyes and couldn't see anything, and the other party was unexpectedly strong. In the struggle, he rolled on the ground several times, and immediately wrapped me in and tied me up together.
I originally thought that this corpse-binding rope was just a broken rope, as thick as a chopstick, and it couldn't tie up a ghost, let alone an ordinary person. But now I feel something different, this broken rope is really a bit special, the more the person struggles, the tighter it gets, and in just a short while, I was strangled to the point of wanting to stick out my tongue!
But that little devil girl seemed to be not affected at all and kept twisting her body. I was choking on the rope and was pressed tightly against her. If this continued, that little devil girl would be fine but I would be strangled to death first!
It has come to such a life-threatening situation that I can't care about anything else. I opened my eyes and saw that the person tied up with me was indeed the evil girl from the Liu family. She was tightly entangled with the corpse rope, her body kept twisting, her hair was disheveled, and her eyes could not be seen. It seemed as if they were covered with a thin layer of black film, which looked extremely weird.
I immediately realized that it was the fine scale sand that worked. At that time, it was my first time to come into contact with fine scale sand. I just heard from Dead Face that fine scale sand can cover ghost eyes. It was not until a few years later when I started to use fine scale sand frequently that I realized that this thing was not real sand, but obtained from a rare fish called fine scale fish that grows in deep pools. This fine scale sand is made by grinding the gallbladder of the fine scale fish.
Fine-scale sand has a very strange property, which is that it can easily adhere to Yin objects. After being thrown into the wind, once it encounters Yin objects such as corpses, it will first adhere to the eyes of the person, causing blindness, and then invade the ears and nose, causing the person to lose hearing and smell.
Therefore, fine-scale sand is a very effective thing for dealing with the corpses of ghosts. It’s a pity that the fine-scale fish is too rare and hard to obtain.
The rotten corpses were blown by the fine sand and immediately lost their direction and began to wander around.
At this moment, my bones were creaking and my face was probably turning eggplant purple. I couldn't help but yell, "Stop the fucking thing!" But I could hardly breathe at this moment, so how could I yell?
I was anxious and scared, and kept cursing why the people inside didn't die and come out to save people. My chest was very stuffy, and I suddenly remembered that my third uncle taught me to pass the energy to Lin Wenjing. I didn't care whether it was reliable or not. I just wanted her to stop quickly, so I pressed my hand on her mouth and took a deep breath to pass the energy in.
But in fact, this method failed swiftly! Liu Nan is not Lin Wenjing, so it won't work at all. I made up my mind, bit the tip of my tongue, and directly passed a mouthful of blood from the tip of my tongue into it. In our industry, the blood from the tip of the tongue is called Longyang blood, especially the Longyang blood from a boy, which is the purest masculine and fiercest.
Finally, a miracle happened. The ghost girl surnamed Liu, with blood on her lips, finally stopped moving. I took her with me and rolled over with all my strength towards the Liu family mansion. When I rolled outside the gate of the Liu family mansion, my eyes were black and I had difficulty breathing. I couldn't move at all. Not only was I exhausted, but my mind was also beginning to blur. If I continued like this, I would only wait for death!
At this moment, he vaguely heard footsteps beside him, and several figures appeared indistinctly in front of him. Leading the way were Uncle San and Dead Face, and the rest of Liu Zian and others followed behind. They only dared to stand in the door and dared not come out, looking outside.
I was refreshed and even breathed more smoothly. I saw Uncle San rushing forward with an anxious look on his face, trying to untie the ropes that bound me.
"Wait!" Dead Face took the lead and stopped Uncle San. He twisted a talisman in his hand and slapped it directly on Liu Nan's forehead. I was thinking that this Dead Face was indeed cautious and very rational, when suddenly a snow-white palm stretched out from my armpit and pierced into Dead Face's chest like lightning!
My mind went blank and I didn't have time to react at all. I saw a figure flash in front of me. My third uncle, who was originally several steps away from me, flashed to my side in an instant. He waved his hand, and suddenly a bright and dazzling blood symbol appeared on Liu Nan's forehead. Then his fingers popped out like a drum and immediately touched several acupoints on Liu Nan's body.
At the same time, the dead face whose chest was pierced by Liu Nan's hand turned into a scarecrow, hanging crookedly on her hand!
The real dead man appeared from behind the door with a gloomy face, strode over, clapped his hands, and instantly several yellow talismans were stuck on Liu Nan.
It was not until this moment that I finally realized that I had been completely used as a pawn by both sides.
This dead-faced man set up the Seven-Star Soul Sealing Formation in the Liu family mansion, just waiting for Liu Nan to break in, but the ghost girl was not stupid either, she just stood guard outside and refused to step into the Liu family mansion. Now neither side could do anything to the other, and a stalemate was formed.
Finally, Dead Face and Uncle San came up with an idea, which was to throw a bait out to lure the other party into the trap. As a result, by some strange coincidence, I became the unlucky bait. After I went out, I threw sand, tied corpse ropes, and finally even used the Dragon Yang Blood trick. I thought I was quite capable, and with a flurry of punches, I actually subdued the ghost girl!
But what I never expected was that the devil girl was controlled by me on purpose, not only to make me think she was trapped, but also to make the people in the Liu family mansion think she was powerless. In this way, I became her bait and lured my third uncle, Dead Face and others out of the Liu family mansion.
This scheme was extremely vicious, but what I didn't expect was that the two old foxes in the house... my third uncle and Dead Face had actually thought of this step long ago, and instead took advantage of the situation and pretended to be lured out without knowing anything. When Liu Nan was waiting for the opportunity to launch a thundering attack, Dead Face used some kind of sleight of hand to replace the dead with a straw man.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the third uncle who had been watching closely immediately took action without hesitation and completely subdued the devil girl right away!
To put it bluntly, although that little devil Liu Nan was cunning, she was still young and she fell into the hands of two shrewd old foxes.
As for me……
Damn it, I don’t want to say anything!
"Hurry up and let me go!" I glared at the two old guys. I didn't want to talk to them. Uncle San quickly took back the rope and pulled me over to check me up and down: "How are you? Is there anything wrong?"
I said "Pah" and didn't want to pay attention to him. The dead face twitched his lips, as if smiling, and nodded at me and said, "Not bad."
You're right, old man! I was almost tricked to death by you, old man!
Liu Zining was standing at the door, his eyes red. As soon as he saw me, he rushed over and grabbed my arm to see if I was injured anywhere. He said in a trembling voice, "It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay..."
I was about to shout "Sister Ning" when I felt dizzy and almost fell down. Fortunately, Liu Zining grabbed me. I hurriedly said, "It's okay, I'm just a little dizzy." I was strangled by the corpse rope just now, and I still can't recover.
As they were talking, Liu Nan had already been carried into the Liu family mansion. Now, with the Seven-Star Soul Sealing Formation sealing her, plus the methods of my Third Uncle and Dead Face, this devil girl couldn't escape no matter how powerful she was.
There were dozens of people in the Liu family, most of them were still very afraid and only dared to hide from a distance and take a peek. On the contrary, the old woman of the Liu family was like a madman. She rushed to Liu Nan with a cane and cursed her, calling her a bitch on the left and a bastard on the right. She wanted to cut her granddaughter into pieces and grind her bones to dust!
One of Liu Nan's hands was still stretched out. She was wearing a red dress, her hair was a little messy, and she was standing alone in the middle of the house. Although she was a murderous and terrifying evil ghost, she was just a little girl of 11 or 12 years old.
While I breathed a sigh of relief, I couldn't help but feel sad in my heart.
"Mr. Zhong, hurry up and grind this evil creature to dust! Quickly! I don't want to even look at this little beast!" The old woman of the Liu family stamped her crutches, screaming and jumping, just like a mad woman.
I was so fed up with listening to that that damn old woman that I really wanted to stuff her mouth with a piece of mud!
The dead face closed his eyes and looked up at the sky, as if in a trance. After a while, he opened his eyes, waved his hand to let the old woman calm down, and then called Liu Zian over and whispered a few words to him. Liu Zian nodded while listening, then ran to the inner room and soon brought back a sandalwood box the size of a book.
Dead Face took it and opened it. I took a look and saw a few nails neatly arranged inside, milky white in color and of different lengths. At first I was still wondering what these nails were, why I had never seen them before, but then I suddenly realized what they were!
