I was watched by ghosts as soon as the live broadcast

"boom!"

The coffin lid was closed from the outside.

"Your uncle!"

Ruan Yang pushed, but didn't push. When it was too late to push again, the whole coffin shook violently, and then rolled up and down.Ruan Yang hugged his head, but was hit several times.After the surroundings returned to calm, Ruan Yang, who had been turned into a mess, immediately raised his hand and pushed the coffin lid on the head.

Ruan Yang cursed a few words.At that time, I didn't look back, just listening to the sound, I knew it was Ah Qiang who suddenly pushed me, but when did Ah Qiang appear there?

Crawling out of the coffin, Ruan Yang sighed when he saw the surrounding decorations.

At this time, the surrounding furnishings are exactly the same as the back room in the spiritual mirror, except that the furniture is old, full of dust, some are rotten and moth-eaten, and there are cobwebs hanging in the corners.

Outside the window is no longer a sunny afternoon in winter, but still a quiet midnight with howling autumn wind. It seems that I have returned to Xiaotuyuan.

Subconsciously reached out to the neck to confirm that the jade bell was still fastened, Ruan Yang felt inexplicably at ease.

Ruan Yang couldn't help but look back at the coffin he had just climbed out of, and was puzzled for a long time, feeling that there was something wrong that he couldn't explain.After looking around the coffin for a long time, I realized that the coffin was placed directly on the ground.

How the coffin is placed is particular.Only the unfinished coffins in the funeral shop, or after the deceased has been loaded into the grave, the coffins can be placed on the ground. For the rest of the time, they are either placed on wooden benches or carried on the shoulders. In short, they cannot be touched. hit the ground.

Ruan Yang felt his temples throbbing. This is not a funeral shop, is it a grave of the dead?

Immediately turned around and opened the door of the inner room, outside the door was the hall where Ruan Yang broke into the crazy woman tonight.On the dusty square table in the center of the hall, there were several plates and bowls and chopsticks.The plates contained offerings from people in the cemetery to worship the dead, or carrion with dead branches and rotten leaves mixed with a foul smell.

Ruan Yang felt sick, thankfully he didn't eat the food on the table in his mouth.

But what should we do now?

In the spiritual mirror, Ah Qiang violently pushed himself back into the coffin, sending himself back to reality.And the old ditch chief who kept urging himself to go to the back room should look like Lao Shen in the spiritual mirror.

Although the old ditch chief in the spiritual mirror tries his best to imitate the way the old ditch chief speaks in reality, the address of Ruan Yang still hints at Lao Shen.

When the old ditch chief in the spiritual mirror called him "stinky boy", Ruan Yang was only slightly suspicious in his heart.When Ruan Yang mentioned "fried peanuts", Ruan Yang did not miss the relieved expression on Lao Shen's face.The original eighty-nine points of doubt have now become very certain.When Ruan Yang was learning Taoism with Lao Shen in the village, he once made fried peanuts for him to eat, and while eating, Lao Shen praised Ruan Yang for his excellent fried peanut skills.

This is also the information that Ruan Yang disclosed to Lao Shen, confirming his identity.

Old Shen should have joined forces with Ah Qiang to help Ruan Yang hold back the mad woman and help him escape from the mirror first.

Just what to do now?

Ruan Yang pushed open the door of the earthen house, and couldn't help being stunned. He couldn't push it open, and if he tried harder, a patter of broken soil would leak from the crack in the door.

It's over, I really won't be hit by my crow's mouth, right?I didn't go back to the small earth courtyard at all, but was still in Wu Zhengguo's grave, but there was a hole in the grave, and the layout was exactly the same as the small earth courtyard.

When I saw the darkness outside the window, it was not because of the quietness of the autumn night, but because it was underground.

After the soul and spirit separated and entered the spiritual mirror, Ruan Yang's psychological endurance was sharply enhanced under a series of strange events. He was not too panicked, but was able to quickly adjust himself and think calmly.

Old Shen fell into the grave together with him, and his physical body must still be in this grave.

Ruan Yang paced around along the base of the wall, estimated the size of the entire underground courtyard, untied the jade bell, and threw it into the air.The jade bell exudes a faint cyan color, which can just illuminate the world.

Ruan Yang raised his foot to walk in, and the jade bell hanging in mid-air followed Ruan Yang's footsteps and floated, always dutifully bringing a piece of light to Ruan Yang.

Searching from the inside to the outside, he finally found the unconscious old Shen in the big cabinet in the hall.Ruan Yang stretched out his fingers to probe the side of Old Shen's neck, his pulse was still beating, but his spirit was out of his body and he couldn't return to his place for a while.If the soul is separated from the body for too long, it will no longer be able to integrate into the physical body.This is also the reason why in the mirror, the woman has been delaying time to persuade Ruan Yang to eat.

Ruan Yang touched the pocket on Old Shen's waist, took out the ink fountain, and flicked a string around Old Shen's body on the ground to temporarily stop the evil spirits from invading.

He found a rhinoceros horn from a broken pocket and lit it, a fresh and slightly sweet smell spread out in the small earthen house.Ruan Yang patted Lao Shen who was sleeping in the cupboard: "Old Shen, let me wrong you again, wait until I get your spirit back."

The ignited rhino horn will attract ghosts and make ghosts appear.In ancient times, in order to ask for immortals, some people became obsessed with demons, strayed into ghosts, used rhinoceros horn incense as a guide, and entered the unreal environment transformed by ghosts, trying to live, dream and die in this imagined space, and realize life. all desires.

The moment Ruan Yang lit the rhinoceros horn, the dark ground under his feet felt like it had been washed by clear water. With Ruan Yang's feet as the center, it slowly spread around, revealing a brightly colored and vibrant new earthen house And the yard, but no matter the walls, roof beams, or decorations, they are all translucent.

Ruan Yang stretched his hand towards the translucent wall, and was surprised to find that his palm could actually penetrate into the wall, as if everything was just an illusion of nothingness, and it would break when touched.

At this time, the small earthen hut was empty, and the woman, the little boy, and the old ditch chief in the hall had long since disappeared, and even the food on the square table was exactly the same as when it was first placed on the upper table.

Ruan Yang didn't dare to take it lightly, he still held the burning rhino horn and walked out of the courtyard.

Before, he was out of body and turned into the appearance of Wu Zhengguo, appearing in the fantasy conceived by this crazy woman. Now he is walking in this weird unreal world with Ruan Yang's body, so he must be extra careful.

When Ruan Yang left the courtyard and walked towards Laogou Chang's house, the color of the translucent small courtyard behind him deepened a little.

Along the way, there was not a single person, not a sound of livestock, and the whole Shizigou seemed like a lifeless village.Ruan Yang's back was straight, and his scalp was a little hairy. He felt that behind all the houses and plants, there were a pair of gloomy eyes staring at Ruan Yang closely, following his walking and turning their eyes.

Ruan Yang estimated the distance on foot, and his position should still be within the range of the mass graves in the real world.This strange feeling could possibly be caused by his own yang energy, which attracted a lot of yin energy that hadn't had time to condense into a human form.

Ruan Yang didn't dare to look back on the road he walked, for fear that the lamp on his shoulder would be blown out by some daring creature. Naturally, he didn't realize that the place he walked behind was no longer translucent, but rather solid.

After turning a corner, we arrived at the home of the old ditch chief.Ruan Yang didn't knock on the door, but climbed over the wall and entered the yard.

The old ditch chief's house is as quiet as the mad woman's dirt yard.Ruan Yang walked around the earthen house for a long time, but he didn't see anyone inside, so he opened the door and went in.

From the outer room to the inner room, as expected, a coffin similar to that of the mad woman's house was found lying on the ground in the inner room.

Ruan Yang paused, and doubts arose in his heart: I didn't hear that anyone in the old ditch chief's family had died?When I went to stay at the old ditch's house, I saw the shadows of the old ditch head and his wife. I can be sure that these two people are not ghosts, so who died in the old ditch head's house?

It can be seen that the coffin was not painted red, but white.White coffins are specially reserved for women who have not left the court or teenagers who died prematurely.Ruan Yang guessed that the one who died would not be the child of the old ditch chief.

Ruan Yang walked into the white coffin and took a closer look. There were no coffin nails on the coffin. He breathed a sigh of relief, and when he was about to lift the lid of the coffin, a cold hand patted Ruan Yang's shoulder.

Sensing the wind blowing behind him, Ruan Yang suddenly lowered his body, instead of looking back, he spread his feet, bent down, and looked back from between his legs.

A thin young man, wearing an old-fashioned shroud, stood behind him, looking suspiciously at Ruan Yang, who was looking up between his legs, from top to bottom.

"..."

Seeing that he was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, Ruan Yang coughed, stood up as if nothing had happened, straightened his slightly messy clothes, and said, "Who are you?"

The boy asked back: "I should ask you this. Who are you? Why are you standing next to my bed?"

"Your bed?"

Ruan Yang saw the boy nodding his head, pointing to the white coffin beside Ruan Yang: "This one. Who are you?"

"I'm a guest staying at Laogou Chang's house."

Hearing Ruan Yang's answer, the boy showed a strange look on his face, looking at Ruan Yang as if he was looking at a product to see if he wanted it.The boy said, "You shouldn't have come here, go back quickly."

Hearing "go back soon" again, Ruan Yang asked: "But I still have to find my friends, they are here."

"Your friend?" the boy asked strangely.

"An old man and a ghost."

"But I haven't seen anyone else except you." The young man replied, "You really have to go back quickly, or you will be trapped here forever, and you will never be able to leave again."

Ruan Yang glanced at the amount of rhino horn, and said, "My rhino horn is still enough to burn, so there is no rush."

The boy laughed out loud: "You don't really think this thing can protect you, do you?"

Ruan Yang looked suspiciously at the young man holding his stomach and laughing.

The boy raised his finger and pointed to the wall behind Ruan Yang, and said, "Look at the place behind you."

Ruan Yang was about to turn his head, but stopped abruptly. He still chose to open his legs and bend over to look between them. There was no one behind him.Ruan Yang rolled his eyes and looked carefully again, only to realize where the boy was pointing.

The originally translucent walls and furnishings are now slowly darkening.Ruan Yang got up quickly, with a bad premonition in his heart, strode to the wall, and reached out to touch the wall.

I found that the hand that was able to pass through the wall in the madwoman's yard can only be/inserted/inserted/into the wall shallowly.The things in this world became real and three-dimensional as Ruan Yang spent time.

The boy smiled and said: "I didn't lie to you. You have yang energy on your body. The longer you stay here, the objects around you will absorb more of your yang energy. When they absorb enough yang energy, they will become real entities. After that, you can only be trapped here, and you can no longer go back along the way you came. Are you afraid?"

The young man was like a naughty child who succeeded in playing a prank. He deliberately said a lot of shocking things, and finally asked Ruan Yang if he was afraid.

Ruan Yang turned around and walked out the door without saying a word.

The young man was a little surprised. He didn't see the panic he expected. He was confused and surprised and bored. He followed Ruan Yang: "Hey, you are so courageous? Are you afraid of being trapped here forever?"

Ruan Yang stopped abruptly, turned around and asked the boy, "Why are you afraid? Can fear solve the problem? My time is running out, and I still have to find my friends."

The young man's eyes fluttered slightly, and he pulled Ruan Yang's sleeves: "It's still too late for you to leave now, do you have to lose the only chance to leave here for the friends you may never find again? Do you think it's right to die like this?"

Ruan Yang strode out without saying a word, but the boy grabbed his sleeve again.

The boy said: "Do you think that such a self is very selfless and noble? Wasting other people's kind reminders in vain, just for the negligible friends, and you are shining with the golden light of morality all over your body?"

Ruan Yang stretched out his hand and pushed away the boy's hand that was pulling his sleeve: "Little boy, what do you know? The world is not yet fully realized, and I still have time to find them. I don't know if they are morally noble or not. All I know is that they're stuck here to save me, and if I walk away and lose them like this, I'll regret it for the rest of my life."

The young man looked at Ruan Yang like an idiot: "You still say that you don't feel that you have a golden light of morality all over your body? Aren't all your righteous words saying that you are noble?"

Ruan Yang glanced at the darker and darker wall, knowing that time was really running out, and wanted to stride away from the boy, not wanting to waste precious time arguing with the boy.

The young man followed him step by step, and continued to threaten: "Are you really not thinking about it? Or did you like me very much when you saw me, and decided to stay with me as a company, but you are too embarrassed to speak out?"

Ruan Yang glanced at the young man, as if to let the young man see clearly how much he weighed, and continued to walk outside the courtyard. He didn't know what to think, and said in a gentle tone: "I won't be unable to get out forever, someone Will definitely take me away."

"Who?" The young man sensitively felt that when Ruan Yang mentioned this person, his mood was very peaceful and trusting, just like a pilgrim talking about the holy light he had seen.

Ruan Yang smiled lightly, but did not answer.

Pulling open the courtyard door, "boom—" a fierce wind blew past.

Ruan Yang couldn't help squinting his eyes to avoid the limelight, and when he opened his eyes, everything outside changed.

The cold wind was blowing, and the leaves of the surrounding trees were all withered, leaving only bare branches.The sky is no longer a warm winter afternoon, but a bitterly cold winter night, dark and deep, without a single star.

The "huhu" cold wind swept along the alley, making a terrifying /low/groan/, as if countless innocent souls were crying about their grievances during their lifetime, and they refused to disperse for a long time.

Ruan Yang looked at the village outside the courtyard gate without any lights, and asked the boy behind him, "What's going on?"

The young man behind him poked his head out and said normally: "What's going on, isn't it just that the Wu family's aunt is missing her head of the family again?"

"Aunt Wu's family?" Ruan Yang immediately understood the word as soon as he repeated it, referring to Wu Zhengguo's wife, that crazy woman.Ruan Yang believed the young man's words, and this unreal world seemed to have the slightest connection with Wu Zhengguo's wife.When I acted as Wu Zhengguo before and the earth dog acted as Wu Zhengguo's son, the sun was shining outside, and the years seemed peaceful.

"Do you know how the head of the family died?" Ruan Yang didn't know where to go in the face of the sudden change outside the hospital. His intuition told him that as long as Wu Zhengguo's wife's resentment and paranoia were solved, this unreal world would naturally be transformed. can break.So, Ruan Yang turned around and asked the boy.

The boy's eyeballs rolled around, he pulled Ruan Yang's arm and said, "Come with me, I'll take you to see it."

"Go and see?"

"That's right! Didn't you say you want to know how Uncle Wu died? I'll take you to see it!"

Ruan Yang was puzzled, how did Wu Zhengguo die?Could it be that in this unreal world, the scene of Wu Zhengguo's death will often repeat itself?

The boy is indeed a villager of Shizigou, and he is very familiar with the winding paths and deviations of Shizigou.Ruan Yang followed for a long time, only to realize that he was getting farther and farther away from the center of Shizigou, as if he was about to leave Shizigou.

"Where are we going?"

"Why are you so rambunctious? Do you still want to know how Uncle Wu died?" The young man was a little impatient with Ruan Yang who kept asking questions, "We're almost there, don't say anything no matter what you see later."

Ruan Yang fell silent now, but seeing the darker and darker night around him, and the increasingly fierce cold wind, his heart couldn't help going up and down, and he raised his hand and squeezed the jade bell tightly, so he felt a little more at ease.

As soon as he left the mirror, Ruan Yang checked his phone, but there was no signal.After returning to the mirror, Ruan Yang looked at the phone again, and the signal bar still showed zero.I don't know what Ying Shuhuai is doing at this time, whether he has called himself, whether he will be anxious if he can't get through.

Ruan Yang shook his head, unwilling to let these children's love distract his thoughts at this time when he should be highly concentrated, followed the boy who had been leading the way a few steps, turned up from a small grassy slope, When he pushed through the grass and came to the main road, Ruan Yang stood there for a moment.

"This...isn't this the road we came here? It's just that this road is a little smaller, but nothing else has changed. This boundary marker is also there." Ruan Yang stared at a boundary marker with a stone ditch engraved on the side of the road , murmuring.

"That's right, this is the main road leading to our Shizigou. It should have been repaired and widened. But I haven't gone out, and I can't see how wide the road is now, but vehicles must pass through to enter and exit Shizigou. Here." The boy pulled Ruan Yang to hide behind a big tree.

Ruan Yang looked up at the crown of the big tree. Isn't this the same tree that Yuan Wenxiong vomited from motion sickness?It seemed that the one laughing and hiding in the canopy was indeed a crazy woman.Seeing us leaving, the mad woman climbed down from the tree, turned down the grassy slope, took a shortcut back to the small soil courtyard, and then stared at us passing in front of the courtyard from behind the courtyard gate.

From the moment we entered Shizigou, we were under the surveillance of a crazy woman the whole time.Thinking of this, Ruan Yang shuddered.

"Why are you shaking?" The boy sensed something was wrong with Ruan Yang.

"It's nothing, the wind is too cold." Ruan Yang tightened his coat and concealed it, "How long are we going to hide here?"

"Hush!" The boy was wearing a thin shroud, but he didn't feel the slightest chill from the cold wind, and looked at the end of the road with a serious expression.

At the end of the road came two figures, one tall and one short, an adult leading a child.A childish voice came from a distance: "Dad, it's so cold and so tired! I can't walk anymore."

"Persist a little longer, Tongzi, we're almost home, your mother has cooked a big pot of chicken soup, let's go home and drink hot chicken soup."

"Hahaha, Dad, let's compete to see who is faster."

......

Ruan Yang's eyes were right, looking at the pair of Wu Zhengguo and his son, who encouraged each other and were immersed in joy, their speech was different from Laogouchang's earthy taste, but like educated people.

While the father and son were chasing each other happily, the sound of a car's engine came from the heavy winter night.Behind the two father and son, a large truck sped up "bang bang bang bang", one of the headlights was broken, and only the other was left to illuminate the road ahead.

The big truck turned too sharply and the night was too dark. When Ruan Yang subconsciously wanted to rush out, the boy held Ruan Yang's body: "You can't save it. Uncle Wu and Tongzi died 19 years ago."

With an extremely ear-piercing sound of brakes, the child flew out. Wu Zhengguo lay on the ground with his arms folded and his head covered in blood. He was still leaning on the other unbroken arm and struggling to crawl towards his son.

The driver of the large truck seemed to be awakened suddenly, and he poked his head out to look at the two people lying on the ground and the large bloodstain.

Wu Zhengguo finally crawled to his son's side, and heard his son say with anger, "Father, I hurt so much! It hurts so much!"

Wu Zhengguo didn't dare to touch his son's body, so he could only grab his son's small palm. He was at a loss like thunder, and turned his head in vain and shouted loudly to the truck: "My son is not dead yet, there is still a rescue! Take us to the hospital quickly! "

The driver of the large truck opened the door, jumped off, looked forward and walked a few steps, and suddenly stopped again under Wu Zhengguo's excited survival gaze.Wu Zhengguo's face changed drastically when he saw the dawn of life, he was extremely nervous, and he spoke quickly: "Please! As long as you send us to the hospital and my son survives, I will never hold you accountable! As long as you send my son to the hospital ! He can still talk, he can still be saved!"

Wu Zhengguo was too nervous.On such a cold winter night, people in Shizigou went home early to nest, and it was difficult for anyone to pass by.If it weren't for my son's birthday today, I promised to take him to the town to play earlier, and I wouldn't miss the last bus back to Shizigou.

Walking all the way back, Wu Zhengguo had never seen a single person on the road, and Wu Zhengguo had never been so frightened. In front of this driver, Wu Zhengguo's heart ached, for fear that he would abandon them and cut off their last hope.

He held his son with one hand, raised his bloodied face and slammed it on the sand and gravel at the truck driver.Shashi knocked Wu Zhengguo's forehead even more bloody, blinding his eyes.Through the blood-red gaze, Wu Zhengguo roared loudly, begged, and cursed, but he didn't stop the truck driver from running away in a hurry.

The driver of the big truck made a sharp turn and left along the way he came.

"Dad, I'm so cold! I miss my mother, and I want to drink chicken soup." The son's voice became smaller and smaller in the cold wind of the winter night.

Wu Zhengguo, who had a broken arm, gritted his teeth, held tears in his mouth, and kept muttering: "It's okay, it's okay, Dad will take you home! Dad will take you home to drink chicken soup."

He dragged his son onto his back and climbed into the gravel ditch with the other arm, leaving a long and wide bloodstain mixed with sand and mud behind him.

"Dad, why haven't you arrived yet? I really want to sleep."

"Same son? Don't sleep, Dad will tell you stories and sing songs for you. You heard from Dad, did you have fun in the town for your birthday today? It will definitely be more interesting for Dad to take you to the city for your birthday next year." Wu Zhengguo panted heavily. He babbled in his voice, but he didn't hear his son's response for a long time.

Wu Zhengguo froze, and his voice trembled: "Team, talk to Dad! Do you want to drink chicken soup? Tell me!"

The son's hand slipped from Wu Zhengguo's neck and hung down in front of Wu Zhengguo's face.Wu Zhengguo stared blankly for a long time, and then broke out the first howl in the cold winter night. The strong grief and resentment were blown away by the cold wind, which made the trees on both sides of the road tremble.

After a gust of wind blew, the figures of Wu Zhengguo and Tongzi were blown away like a cloud of smoke, leaving only faint wailing echoing in the empty night sky.

Ruan Yang watched the tragedy from the perspective of a bystander, his throat was stuffed with a ball of cotton, and his voice was hoarse and unable to speak.

The young man wiped the wet corners of his eyes. No matter how many times this tragedy repeats itself, he still can't help but feel sad for his childhood playmates, not to mention the Wu family's aunt, who lost the head of the family and her baby overnight.

While Ruan Yang was shocked, his rationality slowly came back, and he finally found the secret that others had been hiding all along.Under the light of the only remaining headlight, Ruan Yang could clearly see the face of the driver of the large truck. That person was Yuan Wenxiong.

Desperate death situation means that Wu Zhengguo's grievances and resentments have not dissipated. After wandering in Shizigou for 19 years, he found the evil spirit who could sign a death situation agreement with him, and launched revenge 19 years late.

Ruan Yang suddenly had an idea in his heart that he should just let Yuan Wenxiong go and let him taste the karma he had planted.Tit for Tat, very fair.

Ruan Yang was dragged away by the young man when he suddenly saw a glimmer of light on the other side of the road.Ruan Yang stopped in his tracks, and pointed to the boy in the direction where the light flickered.

The young man's eyes were puzzled, and he didn't seem to understand the appearance of this gleam of light.

Ruan Yang asked in a low voice, "Did this gleam of light appear after the ... before?"

"No, I don't know what happened today." The boy was a little wary.

Ruan Yang grabbed the boy who was about to run away and continued to hide behind the tree, watching the white shimmering light on the other side of the road getting closer and closer, only to realize that it was two wisps of living souls when he was almost in front of him.

And these two living souls, Ruan Yang, also happened to know each other.

One is Yuan Wenxiong's wife, Mrs. Yuan, and the other is Yuan Wenxiong's daughter Xiaoxiao.

Ruan Yang's eyes were fixed, why did the souls of Mrs. Yuan and Xiaoxiao appear here?Looking at Shenghun's face, the two looked dull and out of focus, as if they had just heard some summon and came here.

Ruan Yang watched the two strands of living souls head towards Shizigou, so he simply grabbed the boy and followed them all the way.Go to Shizigou, turn a few turns along the path, and return to the front of Xiaotuyuan.Seeing two wisps of living souls entering directly through the door, the boy who was caught by Ruan Yang shrank back in fear.

"What's going on?" Ruan Yang asked.

"You want to go in? Don't you want to?" The young man glanced at the courtyard door and shook, "Since Uncle Wu and Tongzi left, Aunt Wu's family has become a little...somewhat different. You Aren't you looking for your friend? Let's go find it quickly."

Ruan Yang grabbed the young man who was about to rub the soles of his feet and run away: "Of course I want to find a friend, but I can only start with Wu Zhengguo's wife. After breaking her obsession, the spiritual mirror will naturally disappear, and my friend will naturally be saved, not to mention There are still two living souls inside."

The young man curled his lips: "It's scary to have a living soul. The Wu family aunt probably wants to peel off the divine essence in the living soul, and wants to revive Uncle Wu and Tongzi."

"What resurrection? How could anyone believe such a ridiculous thing?"

The young man felt offended, and was a little unhappy: "For those who are in deep despair, they will try anything as long as there is still a glimmer of hope."

"Yuan Wenxiong deserves to die, but Yuan Wenxiong's wife and children are innocent. They were not the murderers who caused the tragic death of Wu Zhengguo and Wu Tong. They should not suffer this disaster."

"Aunt Wu doesn't care if she's innocent or not, as long as she gets involved with Yuan Wenxiong, she won't let it go."

Ruan Yang suddenly focused his eyes on the young man, staring at him suspiciously: "What about you? Why do you know so much? How did you get trapped here? Who are you from the old ditch?"

The boy pulled Ruan Yang into a door next to him, and Ruan Yang noticed that the courtyard wall was so bad that he could only poke a finger into it.

The boy said, "Why do you ask so many questions?"

Ruan Yang stared at the young man, and said with deep meaning: "I must break this spiritual mirror as soon as possible. The fastest way to get close to Wu Zhengguo's wife is to offer a soul."

The young man felt Ruan Yang sizing him up, hugged his shoulders, and was a little angry: "Why are you looking at me?"

Ruan Yang had a naughty smile on his face, and moved closer to the young man: "Although you are not a living soul, you still have a divine essence, but the effect is not so good. You said I tied you up and threw you into a small courtyard to make a living." The bait, to lure Wu Zhengguo's wife, and I will take advantage of the opportunity to subdue her. Once the mirror is broken, my friends and I are saved, it is perfect."

The young man turned his eyes, pointed behind Ruan Yang and shouted, "Aunt Wu's family is here!"

Ruan Yang stared at the young man without shifting his gaze, he directly drove the jade bell, threw out the golden whip, and tied the young man who was about to retreat suddenly.

"You! Why didn't you fall for it!" The boy widened his eyes.

Ruan Yang sneered, and patted the young man on the head: "Hmph, it's all the tricks left by my young master, how dare you play tricks?"

"Brother, don't tie it so tightly. I said." The young man's ability to steer the rudder according to the wind was very smooth, "The ditch chief you mentioned is my father. My father loves me so much that he wants me to come back to life, so he imitated the Wu family. My aunt buried my body in a specific way. After Wu’s aunt succeeded, she immediately followed the gourd. Therefore, the folks in Shizigou couldn’t do anything about Wu’s aunt’s stealing poultry, because my father took care of it both openly and secretly. with her."

Seeing that Ruan Yang's gaze became serious, the young man immediately raised his hand and swore to the sky: "I promise, I don't want to be resurrected. Although I miss my parents very much, the resurrection method of Aunt Wu's family is quite ridiculous, and the method is not good enough." ...It's not too good, I still want to go to reincarnate early, to cut off my parents' thoughts, but I can't find the reincarnation path, and there is no messenger to pick me up."

Ruan Yang thought of the ghost soldier he saw in the mass grave as an excuse. It must be that Wu Zhengguo's wife and the old ditch chief used some kind of blindfold to hide the ghost, so that they didn't find the missing soul.

Ruan Yang said: "I can save you, send you to reincarnation, and bring you a message to your parents, but you have to help me now."

The boy's eyes lit up and he said, "Deal."

Ruan Yang withdrew the golden whip, and was thinking of a plan to subdue Wu Zhengguo's wife.Suddenly, as if he had sensed something, the young man moved his eyes slightly upwards, then grabbed Ruan Yang's hands, and jumped onto Ruan Yang, pushing him to the ground.

"you......"

Just as Ruan Yang was about to resist, he also sensed that something was wrong. Looking up, he saw Wu Zhengguo's wife, whose hair was disheveled like a chicken coop, squatting on the top of the wall, looking at them with downcast eyes and laughing "hahahaha". I don't know how long she has been looking at them.

Ruan Yang immediately understood the boy's intentions, and cooperated with pretending to be detained by the boy to get up.

The young man smiled brightly like the sun: "Aunt Wu, what do you think I caught? It can peel off his soul."

When Ruan Yang heard this, he could only break his teeth and swallow it.The counterattack plan that I had thought of at will now fell on me. It is really a surprise everywhere in life.

"Heheheha~"

Wu Zhengguo's wife laughed wildly, reached out and lifted Ruan Yang's collar.Her strength was astonishing, she picked up Ruan Yang like a chicken, jumped off the wall, and entered the small courtyard.

This is the first time Ruan Yang has entered this small courtyard.As soon as he entered the courtyard, he was almost shocked.The souls of Mrs. Yuan and Xiaoxiao were hung on a willow tree in the yard by a hemp rope.The expressionless living soul hangs, swaying with the night wind together with the wicker.

Wu Zhengguo's wife tied Ruan Yang tightly with hemp rope and tied several knots, then lifted the curved sickle and walked towards the willow tree where the living soul was hanging.

Wu Zhengguo's wife picked up a little cinnabar in the bowl with a sickle, wiped it on the ground, and began to draw some messy lines that Ruan Yang couldn't understand.Seeing her crazy appearance, Ruan Yang understood.Wu Zhengguo's wife must have read some crooked books or materials from somewhere, and she became a monk halfway through, and learned little or nothing. She just messed around with brute force.

Isn't it funny that her husband and son can be resurrected in this way.

The young man secretly handed a piece of broken tile to Ruan Yang, and asked Ruan Yang to squat in the corner and grind the hemp rope slowly, then walked to Wu Zhengguo's wife, pretending to be curious and chatting: "Aunt Wu, if you do this, my son will die." Can you come back and play with me?"

Wu Zhengguo's wife showed excitement in her eyes, and smiled "heheheha" at him, and gestured at the boy's face with a curved sickle.

The young man covered his nose and took a step back: "Auntie, auntie, slow down, I understand. By the way, did someone break in today?"

Wu Zhengguo's wife sharpened her sickle and glanced at Ruan Yang in the corner.

"It's not him, is there someone else? I seem to have heard something."

Wu Zhengguo's wife, who was sharpening the knife vigorously, turned her head around, staring straight at the boy with gleam in her eyes.The young man's heart was pounding when he saw him, and he frowned, "No? Maybe it's because I've been here for too long, and I've lost my mind."

The boy turned around, patted his chest and pretended to walk into the house.

Ruan Yang, who was about to break the last hemp rope, saw Wu Zhengguo's wife ferociously raised a curved sickle covered with red cinnabar behind the young man who turned to enter the house.

Ruan Yang didn't care whether the hemp rope was untied, so he picked it up in an instant, bumped into Wu Zhengguo's wife, and shouted, "Get out of the way."

The boy retreated violently to the base of the wall, his face turned pale against the wall, and his soul was somewhat transparent: "What happened?"

Ruan Yang yelled: "She saw through and wants to kill you."

The boy slowly moved sideways along the base of the wall: "I just want to be reincarnated, not my soul."

Ruan Yang hit Wu Zhengguo's wife's knife with his bound hands, and the last hemp rope snapped.Now that Ruan Yang knew that Wu Zhengguo's wife had become a monk halfway through, she had learned some miscellaneous sorcery, so she no longer had any scruples, so she tore off the jade bell and threw it into the air.

The jade bell spun rapidly, and the crisp sound of the bell vibrated loudly and vibrated in the courtyard, shaking the whole willow tree with two strands of life hanging from it trembling three times.

Wu Zhengguo's wife raised the hair in front of her eyes with the back of a curved sickle, and looked at the jade bell floating in mid-air with a green light in amazement, and suddenly laughed, staring at the jade bell with greed in her eyes.

Ruan Yang couldn't help but support her forehead. This Wu Zhengguo's wife was really out of her mind. When she saw a magic weapon, she wanted to take it for herself and complete the great cause of resurrection. Backlash.

Wu Zhengguo's wife swung the curved sickle, picked up a large pinch of cinnabar, and wiped the blade of the blade with her palm, a smear of bright red blood slowly slid down the blade, and she was about to chop the jade bell with her body.

Ruan Yang stretched out his hand, and the golden whip flew out of the jade bell and fell into Ruan Yang's hand.Ruan Yang flipped his wrist, and a beautiful and neat arc rose from the golden whip in his palm and pushed it towards the jade bell.The jade bell slid down directly to Ruan Yang's tiger's mouth with a sound of "instigating", and the tail of the whip made a loud sound.

A layer of faint golden air swayed away, shocking the body of the curved sickle that Wu Zhengguo's wife had slashed at suddenly with a crack.

"clang!"

The curved sickle suddenly exploded, and the fragments splashed in all directions with a strong wind, and ruthlessly penetrated into the ground and the wall, stirring up a cloud of fine dust.

Ruan Yang stepped back, and was about to swing the shattered blade that flew over from the golden whip.

Suddenly, the back of his hand felt warm.

A big palm was placed on the hand holding the golden whip, and he swung the golden whip three times and "swish, swish" to sweep away the broken blades flying towards his eyes.

Ruan Yang's back was pressed against a broad chest.The people behind surrounded him, twirled, and danced the golden whip into beautiful golden streamers, turning the critical moment into a tender waltz in a blink of an eye.

"The skill is good, but the speed needs to be practiced faster."

A word came from above his head, low as a whisper.

Ruan Yang couldn't help but look up, and unexpectedly fell into a long-lost starry sky.
