beloved does not come back

Smoke, go,, I, of, soul.

With just these six words, Jiang Tianxiao was already out of breath.

But he still tried to remain calm, and continued to ask: "How did you smoke?"

Yu Lang looked at Jiang Tianxiao, and smiled slightly: "Let's not talk about it...it's over anyway."

"How did you do it?" Jiang Tianxiao grabbed Yu Lang's wrist violently. He used to think that Yu Lang was thin and strong, but at this moment he suddenly felt that Yu Lang's wrist was too thin.

"Xiaojiang," Yu Lang held onto him, and rubbed Jiang Tianxiao's hair with the other hand: "I'm fine."

"Tell me," Jiang Tianxiao felt that his breathing was a little heavy: "...you tell me, Yu Lang."

Yu Lang sighed lowly.

"They soaked a piece of talisman paper with my blood, and then swallowed the spirit-binding talisman for me, and made a formation," Yu Lang pursed his lips: "...after seven or 49 days, a soul can be taken away. "

Jiang Tianxiao's lips trembled, and he asked in a hoarse voice: "That... that, it's painful, isn't it?"

Yu Lang stared into Jiang Tianxiao's eyes for a long time, stepped forward and put his arms around him, wrapping his hands around his waist: "It's all over, that one... is back."

Jiang Tianxiao tightly restrained Yu Lang, he thought, is it because Yu Lang was so thin because he was taken away?How painful should that be?Shen Yuanmen soaked the talisman paper with his blood—where did Shen Yuanmen put his blood? !

Yu Lang was a little shorter than Jiang Tianxiao, with his head slightly lowered, his chin resting on Jiang Tianxiao's shoulder meekly.

The cold wind howled outside the window, and the two people in the room hugged each other with all their strength, as if they wanted to strangle each other into their own flesh and blood.

"...Yu Lang," Jiang Tianxiao said nasally, "I will protect you——I will try my best to protect you. Although I...can't do it now, I will work hard, really."

Yu Lang patted Jiang Tianxiao's back softly, with a smile in his voice: "Well, I know."

Jiang Tianxiao's eyes were hot and wet, he didn't know why he cried, he couldn't help it.

Yu Lang raised his head, pressed his lips tightly against the side of Jiang Tianxiao's face, and kissed him.

This is the real rubbing of ears and temples.

After lunch, the group drove to Matou Town again.

Chi Yang was losing weight at a speed visible to the naked eye. Jiang Tianxiao remembered that when we first met Chi Yang, he was still in a normal body shape, but these days passed, his eye sockets were already thin and slightly protruding. When he stood with his shoulders hanging on the vast yellow land, Just like a crumbling straw.

"Chi Yang," Jiang Tianxiao felt bad for him, but he couldn't comfort him. His Adam's apple rolled for a long time, and he could only ask, "How did you write that new email?"

Chi Yang lowered his head, his voice was dry and hoarse as if he had been stuffed with the wind and sand from the northwest: "Xiao Ke said that she arrived at Shenghugou, she said... this time it's true, goodbye."

"... Shenghugou," Jiang Tianxiao asked, "Is it far from Matou Town?"

"There is a bus in the town to get to Shenghugou, and it takes a long time to drive," Yang Ji answered, "It's still a bit of a distance."

Jiang Tianxiao clicked on the map app on his mobile phone, and they walked northeast along the Yellow River from Lanzhou to Matou Town, and from Matou Town to Shenghugou, they walked southwest.Shenghugou is closer to Lanzhou than Matou Town. In this way, Zhou Ke has made an incomplete circle—then why did he make such a circle?

When we arrived at Matou Town and entered the village, the door of the supermarket was closed.

"Let's go," Yu Lang said, "go directly to that old house."

It was just after lunch, and they walked past the houses of the villagers, but they didn't see many people.

"In the countryside now, hey," He Sheng kicked away the pebbles on the road, "all the young people have gone out to work, and there are very few people."

"That's not true," Yang Ji also sighed: "Most of the old people are left at home waiting to die."

Indeed, there is no atmosphere of approaching the Spring Festival in this village. The houses are dilapidated and old, which only makes people feel desolate.

Soon to the old house.

What happened last night was so horrifying that Jiang Tianxiao's scalp tingled when he saw this dilapidated house, and he subconsciously paused.

Yu Lang turned his head and smiled at Jiang Tianxiao: "Come on, follow me, don't worry."

Jiang Tianxiao hurriedly followed, almost wanting to hold Yu Lang's hand, but suddenly remembered that there were still people who didn't know about it, so he forcibly held back.

Chi Yang also stepped forward: "I'll go in and have a look...is that okay? I want to see where Xiao Ke has been."

Yu Lang nodded: "It's safe now, it's ok."

The three pushed open the old iron door and entered the house.

There are still small stones in the room that Jiang Tianxiao raised the Yanmu Array last night and flew into.

The same as what I saw last night, the bedroom with the table and bed, the kitchen, and the bare backyard.It's a quick turn around.

Just an ordinary, uninhabited, old house.

"Xiao Ke...why come here," Chi Yang muttered to himself, "Why?"

Yu Lang kept his hands behind his back and paced slowly in the small yard.

As he was walking, he stopped suddenly: "Jiang Tianxiao, go and get the compass."

"Okay."

Yu Lang held the compass and walked slowly in the yard.

Jiang Tianxiao and Chi Yang quietly exited the courtyard and looked at Yu Lang.

Yu Lang walked around the yard twice more, and when he reached the southwest corner, he suddenly stopped.

"Go call He Sheng and the others," Yu Lang said, "digging down from here."

The car actually had a shovel on it.

He Sheng dug down with a shovel, and what came out was loose sand and loess. The others didn't speak, except Yu Lang, who stared at He Sheng's shovel intently.

He shoveled down again, only to hear a crisp "thump", and He Sheng stopped moving.

He knelt down and picked up the dirt with his hands, and brought out a small box.

Jiang Tianxiao flickered out of the corner of his eye, and saw Chi Yang pounced on him——

"It belongs to Xiao Ke!" Chi Yang hissed, "This box—— belongs to Xiao Ke!"

"...Open it," Yu Lang said in a low voice.

With trembling hands, Chi Yang unzipped the box.

"what!"

Xiaoqiu let out a short exclamation, and with a flash, he leaned on Yang Ji's body.

Yu Lang crossed his arms and frowned.

He Sheng also frowned and didn't speak.

Yang Ji's voice trembled a little: "This...what's the situation?"

In Chi Yang's hand, he held the shroud he took out of the box.

Big red, shroud.

"This...why?" Chi Yang shook his head to himself: "Xiao Ke...what do you mean?"

"Put the things back," Yu Lang said in a deep voice, "We'll talk about it when we go back."

Back at the hotel, Yu Lang carried the box containing the shroud to his and Jiang Tianxiao's room.

"Teacher Yu," Jiang Tianxiao panicked after seeing the box, "What's going on?"

"Don't be afraid when I say it," Yu Lang said with a serious expression, "I suspect that the Zhou Ke we saw on the roadside camera... is already a ghost."

Even though he had prepared himself mentally, Jiang Tianxiao was still startled, sweating profusely on his back: "Ghosts... aren't all ghosts unconscious..." If he could ride a car, walk, or even send emails like a normal person ...Then what kind of ghost is this? !

"If the resentment is extremely deep, it is not impossible, but..." Yu Lang frowned: "It is difficult even for ghosts to move freely during the day."

"That……"

"I'll make a battle tonight." Yu Lang looked at the box: "Check to see if there is any ghost spirit in the things inside. If not, then Zhou Ke was still alive when he buried this thing."

"Oh... well."

"Actually, you can too," Yu Lang raised his eyebrows: "This is a very simple spiritual technique, you can do it—if you dare."

"I dare!" Jiang Tianxiao said quickly, "...I have to exercise myself."

"Well," Yu Lang suddenly pursed his lips and smiled: "You need to exercise a bit. I see that among so many people, only Xiao Qiu is less courageous than you."

"I..." Jiang Tianxiao was very ashamed by Yu Lang's words: "Uh, I'm sorry."

"What are you apologizing for?" Yu Lang was still smiling, and stepped forward to tickle Jiang Tianxiao's chin: "You haven't come into contact with these before, it's normal...but you have to face these all at once, it's hard for you."

Jiang Tianxiao shook his head again and again: "No, no, no! It's not hard!" Then he added in a low voice: "For you, there is nothing hard to do."

Yu Lang rolled his eyes and circled Jiang Tianxiao's face: "Your mouth is so sweet, Xiao Jiang."

At night, He Sheng drove the car to a deserted waste station in the county town.

"It stinks..." Jiang Tianxiao wrinkled his nose: "Does it have to be here, Brother Sheng?"

"Oh, it's good if you can find it," He Sheng shrugged, "Hurry up."

Jiang Tianxiao nodded, and took out the shroud from the box as Yu Lang taught.

His hands trembled a little while grabbing the shroud, he gritted his teeth to hold it back, and tried to calmly put the shroud on the open space, pressing it down with a large handful of cinnabar.Then he took out the prepared mahogany from his pocket, and wrapped the mahogany with talisman paper.

After igniting the talisman paper, Jiang Tianxiao murmured: "Peach trees ward off evil spirits, exorcise spirits to occupy..."

Then he squatted down and put the burning peach wood on the cinnabar.

In an instant, the temperature rose sharply, and the flames on the peach wood quickly engulfed the bright red shroud, igniting a violently flickering flame.The flame is bright yellow, and the flame tip is slightly red.

Jiang Tianxiao felt the spiritual power surging in his body, scurrying around, he took a deep breath and calmed down.

Yu Lang said that he had just used spiritual arts, and it was normal for him to not be able to control the spiritual power in his body, and there was no immediate solution—the only way was to use more spiritual arts and practice dominating and manipulating spiritual power over and over again.

The pain in my chest when I aroused the Iwaki Formation struck again.The pain was not as sharp as last time, but it still made it difficult for Jiang Tianxiao to breathe.

The flames burned hotter and hotter, and beads of sweat flowed down the forehead and into the eyes.Jiang Tianxiao narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists, fighting against the suffocating pain in his chest and the burning heat.

"Jiang Tianxiao," Yu Lang's voice suddenly came from not far behind, "I'm here, don't worry."

Yu Lang's voice was low and calm, flowing slowly through Jiang Tianxiao's body like cold spring water.

The hot and restless mood seemed to calm down a little, and the pain in the chest was no longer so difficult.

Jiang Tianxiao took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and with a sudden force, lifted the spiritual power in his body——

With a "boom", the bright yellow flame leaped upwards as if it had grown wings!

In the next second, the flames were extinguished suddenly, and the scorching heat dissipated in an instant.

"...not a ghost." Yu Lang said.
