Chapter 339 Yinshan Village
Chapter 339 Yinshan Village
The coffin lid was raised, and a pair of white and soft hands stretched out from the edge. The nails of the hands were painted bright pink. From the gap in the coffin lid, a woman in a red wedding dress could be vaguely seen lying inside. .
This woman is the same as the woman in the coffin in the temple, her face is covered with a hijab, and her upper body is slightly raised. It is obviously impossible to see through the hijab, but Mu Sicheng just feels that the bride is spying on him and the pit through the hijab. situation within.
The bride tapped the coffin lid twice with her fingers, making a loud bang.
The ghost dragging the coffin in front seemed to have received some order, and slowly turned his head, opening the two slits between his eyes and mouth, and staring straight at the shepherd who was less than ten centimeters away from him with blood-red eyes. Sicheng, and then the bones suddenly began to twist and deform.
"I've been spotted, run!" Bai Liu quickly crawled forward without hesitation.
With Bai Liu's order, Mu Sicheng and the ghost started to fly.
Mu Sicheng was so frightened that he cried for his father and mother, and followed Bai Liu to crawl forward frantically, but fortunately, the pothole in this place was big enough, they could squat forward and move forward much faster than before .
In the dark corridor, ghosts with pale skin and twisted limbs rushed up, their facial features and body were constantly changing and twisting, like a plaster statue being shaped.
Mu Sicheng just glanced back, and was frightened out of his wits, moving faster.
However, due to space constraints, the broken Mu Sicheng still did not run as fast as the ghost. When he was about to see the exit, Mu Sicheng was used by all fours. The ghost crawled forward and bit the ankle of his right foot. Pull back.
Mu Sicheng almost didn't even have time to make a sound, and was dragged into the darkness by the ghost.
Bai Liu turned around and grabbed Mu Sicheng's hand that was about to be dragged away, bit the tip of his tongue, drew a talisman on Mu Sicheng's wrist with his finger stained with blood, and at the same time calmly read: "The order of the thunder is as urgent as a spark... the ghost Cover the body, entangle the road with ghosts, separate yin and yang, break!"
Mu Sicheng's mind went blank, and he backhanded the talisman drawn by Bai Liu on the ghost lying on his body.
The talisman was shaken from Mu Sicheng's hand, emitting an invisible force and ripple, which separated Mu Sicheng and the ghost in an instant.
The ghost let out a shrill howl, and wanted to rush over, but suddenly, it stopped, turned its head around 360 degrees and looked around for a while, and the eyes and mouth slits on its face slowly disappeared.
This ghost seems to be unable to see Bai Liu and the others.
Mu Sicheng, who was stuck on the passage wall, did not dare to show his air.
The ghost sniffed back and forth in the corridor several times, as if separated by an invisible air barrier, it was still unable to find Mu Sicheng and Bai Liu, so it lay on the ground again and crawled out.
Mu Sicheng sat on the ground collapsed, gasping for breath, holding up the camera in a trance: "Let's go, let's go..."
Bai Liu took Mu Sicheng's camera away, and then the light of the camera squatted down and tore off Mu Sicheng's clothes, tied up Mu Sicheng's ankle that was bleeding from the bite, and then paused subtly.
The ghost's teeth didn't look very clean just now, could he get rabies if he was bitten?
Rabies, he remembers, seems to be that if you don’t get vaccinated for 24 hours, people will die...
Mu Sicheng let out a long breath, wiped the cold sweat off his face, and looked at Bai Liu: "What did you use to drive the ghost back?"
Bai Liu raised her eyes and looked at Mu Sicheng: "A spell called [Yin-Yang Road Separation Talisman], which can separate the underworld from the yang, and create a road in between, so that things standing on both sides of the road cannot touch each other."
Mu Sicheng couldn't help complaining: "If you have such a good thing, you should have taken it out earlier. If we use it early, we won't have to be chased like dogs..."
Bai Liu paused again, and then said: "There are two types of [Yin-Yang Separation Talisman], one is the orthodox one, which is used to fend off evil things to protect oneself, you can put the person who performs the Taoism in the yang room, and put the person who needs to be repelled Evil things are driven back to the underworld."
The expression on Mu Sicheng's face gradually became dull: "It's you..."
Bai Liu looked at Mu Sicheng with pity: "Yes, mine is unorthodox. It is used to release evil things. It puts evil things on the road to the world, and people who perform Taoism will be trapped on the road to the underworld."
"So we're stuck in the underworld now."
Mu Sicheng suddenly turned his head to look at the place where he cast the spell just now. He took a picture with the camera and found that there was indeed a road-like trace left on the ground there.
The ghost just now had no way to cross this road.
Mu Sicheng limped over in disbelief, trying to go out.
But soon Mu Sicheng found that he was just like that ghost, no matter how hard he tried to cross that road, he was still standing still.
... He had never hoped that he and that ghost could stand on the same ground as he does now.
Mu Sicheng looked at the other side of the road solemnly, and then turned back to look at Bai Liu, with tears in his eyes: "... [Yin-Yang Road-Separating Talisman], how can we break it?"
Bai Liu patted Mu Sicheng's shoulder reassuringly: "It's okay, the way to break this talisman is very simple."
"Just wait until twelve o'clock tonight, when yin and yang meet, this road will not be able to stop us, and we will be able to return to the yang world."
Mu Sicheng quickly looked down at the time, and said with a half-crying smile, "...it's okay, it's only twelve hours and it's twelve o'clock in the evening."
"As long as we can get through these twelve hours safely, we can go back when it gets dark."
Bai Liu's eyes drifted away for a moment: "Yes."
It is said that after being bitten by a strange animal, the first twelve hours are the prime time for rabies vaccination...
Hope the ghost doesn't have rabies.
Gradually, the corridor was as tall as a person, and Bai Liu could walk upright, but Mu Sicheng had to lower his head slightly.
Mu Sicheng lowered his head, glanced at the back of Bai Liu's head who was walking in front, and muttered in a low voice: "...I thought you wouldn't save me just now."
As far as Bai Liu's retreat speed was concerned, he never looked back from the beginning to the end.
"I didn't intend to save you." Bai Liu said very frankly, he glanced at Mu Sicheng from the corner of his eye, "But didn't you also save me? You were bitten after you blocked me."
Mu Sicheng snorted, and for some reason cheered up again: "You have a conscience."
Bai Liu withdrew his gaze: "I can't talk about conscience, but I am more trustworthy in life."
The passage full of mud gradually revealed its original appearance. The dry soil on the wall peeled off, and the wet soil on the ground turned into a viscous liquid like muddy water, making water sounds as Bai Liu and the others stepped on it.
The original irregular-shaped passage has become a relatively regular rectangle, about one meter wide and two meters high. Although it is wider than before, it is still very narrow. Two people walking side by side are a bit crowded.
Bai Liu raised her head to look around, and stretched out her hand to compare: "This size is almost enough for a coffin to stand up and pass."
Mu Sicheng felt chills down his spine: "Can you change the quantifier?"
Bai Liu thought for a moment: "This passage can allow one and a half people to walk."
Mu Sicheng: "..."
Thanks, I was even more intimidated.
After walking for nearly three hours, the exit of the passage finally appeared in front of them.
It was a dark double-opening stone tomb door, and on one side stood a stone carving of the Sanqing Tianzun with glaring eyebrows and baring teeth and claws. The stone door was not completely closed, but there was still a gap for one person to enter and exit.
Bai Liu turned on the flashlight, and glanced at the Shimen: "There is no sign of the Shimen being forcibly opened from the outside, nor any signs of damage, it should have opened naturally."
Mu Sicheng pointed the camera at the door of the tomb, frowning and asked: "Shouldn't the door of this ancient tomb be welded to death? Can it still open naturally?"
Bai Liu passed through the tomb door sideways, holding up the flashlight and turning his head to look at both sides of the tomb door: "It was opened from the inside."
There are two lifting buttons on the left and right of the inner side of the tomb door. The strings under the buttons are connected to the stone door.
Mu Sicheng's heart skipped a beat when he saw it, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "...Damn, why do you need to open the button of the tomb door from the inside when repairing the tomb! There are dead people inside the tomb, how can you come out by yourself! "
Holding up the flashlight, Bai Liu looked around, and replied casually after hearing the words: "That can only mean that the tomb repairer knew that the dead bodies in these tombs would open the tomb door and come out by themselves after many years."
After looking around, Bai Liu took out two red candles, two candlesticks, and a box of matches from his backpack. These things were all brought by Bai Liu from the altar of the temple this morning.
Bai Liu fixed the candle on the candlestick and stuck it, handed one to Mu Sicheng, and lit it with a match.
Mu Sicheng hung the camera around his neck, took the candlestick, and looked at Bai Liu suspiciously: "Shall we use candles next? Isn't the lighting effect bad?"
"It's not just the lighting effect." Bai Liu walked in holding the candlestick, and the dancing flames on the candlestick were covered with a strange blue color.
Bai Liu explained calmly: "Do you still remember where we are?"
Mu Sicheng looked at the cramped environment around him: "In the tomb?"
Bai Liu glanced at Mu Sicheng: "Not only in the tomb, but also on the road to hell."
"In the underworld, the difference between the living and the dead cannot be discerned with light without fire. That is to say, with a flashlight, the camera cannot tell whether the person is a ghost or a human. You have to use light with fire like candles."
"So here, the ones whose shadows can be cast by candles are people, and the ones without shadows are ghosts."
Mu Sicheng was terrified: "No, aren't you and I the only human beings here? Do you need to use candles to identify them!"
Bai Liu held up the candle, and the candlelight illuminated his side face so brightly that he couldn't see the look of a living person. Bai Liu looked at Mu Sicheng without any expression on his face: "How do you know that I'm a human? - I am not."
Mu Sicheng was startled, he took a step back subconsciously, held up a candle to shine a light on Bai Liu, found that Bai Liu could print a shadow on the wall, he was relieved, and said angrily: "Stop playing with me!"
Bai Liu turned her head and walked straight forward: "I didn't play with you, ghosts have the ability to change form, if what you meet is not me, but a ghost that takes my shape, how would you recognize it without a candle?"
"Besides, [Mountain Ghost Blows Out the Lamp], if your lamp goes out in the tomb, don't go in. On the one hand, it means that a ghost may appear and blow out your lamp; The oxygen level may not be enough for the candle to burn."
Mu Sicheng got goosebumps when Bai Liu said it: "If the candle really goes out, what should we do?"
"Nothing to do." Bai Liu said calmly, "This is the underworld, the land of ghosts. If we can live a little longer, we will count it as money. What else do you want to do?"
"If the ghost really comes to blow your candle, you just follow him, and if you can hold on for a while..."
Before Bai Liu finished speaking, Mu Sicheng clearly saw a pair of small hands made of oil paper on Bai Liu's shoulders, and a paper-wrapped human face protruded from the darkness behind.
The paper figurine is as white as flour, with bright red rouge the size of two children's fists dotted on the cheekbones of the left and right cheeks, wearing a red agate melon skin hat and a blue-black gown, with a traced happy face smile.
Mu Sicheng seemed to be able to hear the paper figurine's sinister laughter, and he saw the paper figurine sticking its head out from Bai Liu's shoulder and blowing on the candle that Bai Liu was holding.
At the same time, Mu Sicheng heard the sound of paper rubbing behind him, a pair of oiled paper hands covered his eyes, and something sat on his shoulders and let out a shrill laugh.
Soon, the candle Mu Sicheng held was also extinguished.
The tomb was plunged into a pitch-black darkness.
