Chapter 176 Exorcism
"...You mean we go touch the corpse in the middle of the night?" Even though he knew that Ye Qingxue didn't care at all, Xie Wayan was still shocked when he heard this suggestion.
"This is a good idea." Meng Xiu said.
Xie Wangyan also knew that this was actually the fastest way——
But the problem is that according to the custom of Sifang Town, these corpses have to rest for a month. The last one who died suddenly in his sleep was six days ago.
Although the weather is not too hot now, no one knows what changes happened to the corpse in these six days.
"I don't know where their corpses are now." Xie Wangyan glanced at the entire village.
It was discovered that although they were solving this evil problem for the residents of Sifang Town, the eyes of these townspeople were not full of trust or respect and fear of the monks, but rather contained a hint of defensiveness.
It was quite different from the mortal towns in his impression.
Although Sifang Town is not a place where monks and mortals live together like Huaxian City, since they are under the rule of Taiqing Villa, it stands to reason that they should not be completely strangers to the monks.
But the attitude of these Sifang Town residents was as wary as some country folk meeting a monk for the first time.
In comparison, it seemed that the evil spirits didn't matter to them.
"I think they are unwilling to reveal the place where the spirit rests." Xie Wangyan said.
Sure enough, when Meng Xiuyan approached a Sifang Town resident to ask, he was met with objections from the other party, shaking his head.
They all said that this was the custom of their Sifang Town, and outsiders were absolutely not allowed to see it. In addition, because they no longer had the protection of the ancestors in the ancestral hall, they were even more worried that these walking corpses should not be seen by outsiders.
"...Except for the people of Sifang Town, no one else is allowed to enter without authorization." The man hesitated as he spoke, and did not dare to look up at Meng Xiuyan, but kept refusing.
"Besides, everyone is dead, so what's there to see?"
There are ghosts.
Xie Huanyan thought, even if there are walking corpses, wouldn't these monks still be able to deal with them?
It was obvious that the people in Sifang Town did not want them to check the bodies of those who died suddenly in their sleep.
The more the other party tried to cover up, the more it showed that there was something strange in Sifang Town... Seeing that it was impossible to find out where the spirits of those boys and girls who died suddenly were found, Meng Xiuyan could only return to the two of them.
He believed that both of them heard clearly.
On the way, they met other brothers from Taiqing Villa and Kunlun in the village and mentioned this matter. However, they saw that several other people also said that the people in Sifang Town were very strange, but they were unwilling to reveal more about the place where the spirit was buried. .
"If we are not allowed to see these dead bodies, how can we know why they died suddenly?" The speaker was a monk from Taiqing Villa.
He also said with a bit of anger, "I just said that the rules of our ancestors cannot be broken."
"Who knows if this evil spirit will come back?"
"I see you just came out of a house." Xie Huanyan suddenly said, "Is that a house where someone died suddenly?"
"No," the monk said.
"No matter what we asked before, they all answered honestly, but once we asked to see the evil corpse, we were constantly rejected." He glanced at the house behind him, "This is already the third house. .”
——Almost all residents of Sifang Town are resisting this matter.
"As for the white lanterns and paper pricking people that Senior Sister asked us to ask about, we have some answers."
The monk from Taiqing Villa said, "Only when an old man dies, will he have filial sons and grandsons ready to tie him up with paper. If an unmarried young man or woman dies, only white lanterns will be hung."
When Xie Wangyan heard this, he immediately thought of the white lanterns hanging in every house that he had seen in his dream.
But the girl clearly said that except for the old people who died in this year, almost no one died.
Could it be that the white lanterns just represent that someone has died here... It's normal for someone in the family to have died in Sifang Town for many years.
Xie Wangyan and others said goodbye to the monks at Taiqing Villa.
The three of them came to the hiding place——
"We should still find a place to rest the spirit." Meng Xiuyan began, "There must be something wrong with it being secretive."
Of course Xie Wangyan also knows this——
But the problem is that no one in Taiqing Villa is willing to tell the truth... At this moment, he suddenly felt something moving slightly in his chest.
After feeling it carefully, he took out a gray bird from his arms.
It was the peacock.
"...Isn't this the peacock?" Meng Xiuyan glanced at the peacock that Xie Wangyan took out from his arms, "Why did it suddenly become smaller?"
Xie Wangyan guessed that the other party probably returned to his childhood appearance because he left Kunlun and lacked spiritual energy.
He held the peacock in his palm and found that the peacock was looking at him with its eyes open.
Then pecked his fingers a few times.
'I know. '
"...?" Xie Wangyan stared at the peacock.
Can you speak? ?
But he was worried that there were two people present next to him, so he couldn't ask directly.
And the peacock seemed to know what he was thinking, and transmitted a message in his head——
‘I have recovered [-]% of my spiritual power, so naturally I can. ’
Xie Wangyan thought about it for a while and understood what Peacock meant.
Because in the small secret realm, the other party almost exhausted his spiritual power in order to fight against the black water. After leaving the small secret realm, although I would feed him some spiritual crystals from time to time, it was only a drop in the bucket.
It wasn't until Jiang Heluo's spiritual veins that he regained his original appearance as an adult peacock.
But he didn't expect... Even if most of the spiritual veins were absorbed by the opponent, only [-]% of them would be restored. After leaving Kunlun, he would turn into a gray bird again.
The only advantage is probably that I can talk now.
Although he didn't know how the peacock knew it, Xie Huanyan wondered whether the other party was a spiritual creature in Zhu Yuqing's little secret realm - since the killer vine can be an innate treasure, then this peacock was not ordinary according to his original guess.
It is not surprising to know where the souls of Sifang Town people rest.
So he said, "I probably know that place."
"When did you know?" Meng Xiuyan asked subconsciously.
Ye Qingxue looked at the "little chicken" held in Xie Wangyan's arms, snorted, and then said, "...I heard that peacocks can ward off evil spirits. Maybe it senses the smell of evil spirits."
Meng Xiuyan was reminded of this, and he also thought of the saying that peacocks can drive away evil spirits.
It's just that there are so few people in the world of cultivation who regard peacocks as spiritual beasts that he didn't expect it for a moment.
Xie Huanyan saw that Ye Qingxue had found a reason for him, so he didn't refute. He held the peacock in his arms and waited until nightfall to go to the place where the spirit was buried when the people in Sifang Town weren't paying attention. Check it out.
