Volume 1 Chapter 19: Trap (Part 2)
Shen Bing was so scared that she let out a cry and covered her mouth with her hands.
My heart was pounding, and the hairs on my back stood up. If I saw adult corpses all over the ground, it wouldn't be a big deal, but this place was full of babies, some of which were just bones, and some of which hadn't completely rotted, with maggots crawling in and out of their empty eyes. It was so heartbreaking.
Shen Bing vomited behind me with a "wow".
It's too damn cruel, I cursed in my heart. These infant skeletons all had holes in their heads, their brains were hollowed out, and those that hadn't completely decayed could clearly see their skin was as pale as paper, and their blood had been sucked out when they died. I roughly counted them, and there were at least 70 or 80 of them.
Needless to say, these babies were killed during the twenty-four solar terms of the year.
I touched my nose and asked Shen Bing, "Are there many cases of missing babies in recent years?"
"There are quite a few, but we have not been able to find any clues. They are all attributed to human trafficking cases. We speculate that these missing babies may have been sold to other places."
I sighed inwardly. It's not the police's fault that they couldn't find any clues. The evil ghost stole the baby and certainly wouldn't leave any traces behind. He also hid the baby's body in the basement of the haunted house. Only a god could find it.
Who is so crazy that he wants to impregnate evil ghosts and kill so many babies? You know, ghosts alone cannot understand this knowledge. There must be someone . Ghosts can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth by using the magic treasure. The key is that the magic treasure is not something that is born with, but is condensed by the evil spirits of hundreds of ghosts. Even if you kill a hundred ghosts, you may not get a magic treasure. Without the operation of professional magicians, ghosts will never be able to do it.
Furthermore, the fact that raising corpses alive is related to this can further prove that this is the work of an evil sorcerer, and that ghosts cannot raise corpses alive.
I was suddenly shocked. A hundred ghosts' evil spirits, my black pearl! That was made from a hundred ghost teeth, the authentic a hundred ghosts' evil spirits. Could it be that killing the antique dealer and robbing the black pearl was to impregnate the evil spirit?
Thinking of this, I broke out in a cold sweat. If this were true, then our ghost shop would be aiding and abetting ghosts in their evil deeds!
"Hurry up and go, they are not as good-looking as me, it's scary." Shen Bing said while pulling my clothes.
Oh, they are not as good-looking as you. What's your tone? You are like a child acting like a spoiled child, and you are afraid. I pulled her around the pile of dead babies and walked forward. In fact, the basement is not big. It is mainly because of the yin energy. The visibility is very low, so the small flashlight cannot illuminate the wall. After walking a few steps forward, we reached the end and a door appeared.
The moment my fingers touched the door panel, a cold chill passed through my fingertips and spread throughout my body, and I shivered involuntarily.
I suddenly shuddered, thinking that there must be a ghost inside. It exudes such a strong aura, which is not something that ordinary ghosts can do. No matter what kind of ghost it is, as long as it is a ghost, I am not afraid, so I pushed open the door.
The cold wind blew in our faces and almost froze us to death!
I hurriedly recited a few incantations , and the incense and candle in my hand ignited a flame, dispersing the cold air. At first glance, I saw that this was a small room, and a female ghost with disheveled hair was curled up in the corner, staring at me fiercely with her eyes wide open.
"There's nothing inside, what are you looking at?" Shen Bing asked in surprise when she saw my cautious expression.
I thought to myself that if you didn’t have the ability to see ghosts, you would be so scared if you saw a female ghost.
The ghost girl's belly was bulging, it seemed she was pregnant, no wonder she was so cold. Once a ghost is pregnant, especially when it is about to give birth, the ghost energy on her body will increase dozens of times, but she is very weak. Although she stared at me intently, she didn't dare to move, for fear of disturbing the egg corpse in her belly.
It just so happens that she hasn't given birth yet, otherwise it would be no fun to give birth to a fierce ghost. I pushed Shen Bing away and pulled out the copper coin sword. Today I will pretend to be a doctor and give you a caesarean section.
When the female ghost saw the copper coin sword, her face immediately turned purple and her eyes became very bloodshot. She screamed and shrank into the corner of the wall.
"Who, who is calling?" Shen Bing asked, turning around.
I raised my sword and stepped forward, aiming at the ghost's stomach. Suddenly, the sword pierced into the air, and the ghost suddenly disappeared without a trace. I turned around and saw that I was in big trouble. The door I had just entered was gone. This place turned out to be a merry-go-round, taking me to the next room, but you give me a door, otherwise how can I get out?
There was a flash of light above my head. I looked up and saw four heads popping out from the four corners of the house. Their long hair covered half of their faces, leaving only one eye and half of the pale face exposed. This was even more interesting. If someone saw them in the middle of the night, they would be scared to death.
I touched my nose and counted with my fingers, oh, this place should be the position of the five ghosts, but there is still one missing. Just as I was thinking, another head popped out from the middle of the roof, like a newly cracked egg, with a furry ghost head sticking out, sticking out a bright red tongue, grinning at me.
When the five ghosts are all here, it's time to take away people's souls. I sneered and shook my hand. The copper coin sword scattered and eight copper coins flew up and hung above my head according to the eight trigrams. I pulled out the peach wood sword from my waist. To be honest, I rarely use this thing. I can say that I have basically never used it. Today is the first time. I took out a yellow talisman and stuck it on the tip of the sword.
"God's plan, God's plan, fierce princes. Eyes like lightning, claws like golden hooks. Obedient ghosts are not killed, evil ghosts are beheaded. God has ordered that you must not stay. Hurry up and obey the order!"
"Whoosh" the yellow talisman burned, the peach wood sword drew an arc handsomely, and the eight copper coins began to spin rapidly, with a few "crackling" sounds , black blood splattered, and the five ghosts didn't even have time to scream before their heads were all cut off by the copper coins and rolled to the ground.
"The Taiyin is the essence of water. When I look at it, the five mountains collapse. Hurry up and obey the command!"
The peach wood sword drew another arc, and the scene in front of him distorted and returned to its original appearance. The door was the door, the female ghost was the female ghost, and Shen Bing was standing outside the door, anxiously looking in. Ha, I have learned magic for so many years, but it has never been put to use. Today, it works well and I am not embarrassed.
"Are you crazy? Who are you playing with swords with?" she said with a look of contempt.
"Where's the moxa on your forehead?" I asked, frowning at her.
"When you were playing with the sword just now, a gust of wind blew you away."
Oh my god, mugwort can help her avoid the ghost's eyes. Without it, it would be terrible. Just as she was about to kill the pregnant female ghost with the peach wood sword, she suddenly saw a pale human face appearing from Shen Bing's left shoulder, sticking out its tongue and biting her neck.
"ah……"
I was shocked and flew forward, holding up the peach wood sword and stabbing at the ghost's head, but I missed.
Shen Bing flew backwards and landed four or five meters away. A slender little hand pushed the ghost away and revealed her face from behind Shen Bing. It was a bitch! Her right hand grabbed Shen Bing's throat and said coldly: "If you dare to kill that ghost, I will kill her!"
I quickly stopped, raised my peach wood sword and said, "We can discuss this."
Blood was flowing from Shen Bing's neck, staining the clothes on her shoulders red. She squinted her eyes and looked back at the bitch, crying, "You are attacking a police officer, do you know that?"
I feel dizzy. It's better to talk to a dog than to talk to a living corpse.
"Shut up!" the bitch yelled.
"You attacked the police so violently..."
Shen Bing suddenly raised her foot and chopped it down hard. She was wearing high heels, and the heel of the shoe pierced into the instep of the bitch's foot. She screamed in pain and let go of her. Shen Bing was not done yet. She turned around and put her right arm around the other's neck, and then she threw the bitch over her head.
Her hand was quite handsome, but I thought to myself, it's not that easy to subdue a living corpse. Just when I was about to run up, a long scream came from Shen Bing's mouth, "Ah..." She widened her eyes with a look of disbelief.
She was still twisting the man's head, but a bloody hand came out from her chest!
