seal of magic

"Ah!" After being thrown out of the vortex again, and hit the wound when he landed, Qi Shao finally couldn't hold back the pain and cried out this time.

At this moment, both he and Lu Ji were out of breath.Qi Shao was exhausted and paralyzed on the ground, his limbs seemed to be stuck to the ground, and he couldn't even stand up.Lu Ji wasn't much better either, he was also paralyzed on the ground, he hadn't encountered such a dangerous scene for a long time.

The two lay quietly waiting for their strength to recover.

Should we return to the real world now?Qi Shao took out his phone again, and this time the time on the screen finally changed, showing 4:[-] in the morning, Qi Shao finally felt relieved.

"Hey! Tell me, do you know that person? What's going on?" Anyway, he was lying down, and Qi Shao kicked Lu Ji, wanting to hear the ins and outs of the matter.

"His name is Dong Wende." After taking a few deep breaths, Lu Ji's heartbeat gradually calmed down, and he told Qi Shao about Dong Wende's use of magic and the fact that the Celestial Masters Association sent people to arrest him, "He first said that Zhong Zhenlin was me. Uncle, he was one of the three celestial masters who participated in the arrest of Dong Wende two years ago. My surname is also Zhong, Zhong Qingyu. Lu Ji is indeed a pseudonym."

"You knew it was him from the beginning?"

"If I knew it from the beginning, would I still spend so much time guessing with you?" Lu Ji, that is Zhong Qingyu, wanted to rub Qi Shao's hair vigorously to vent his aggrieved heart.This man really, even if he saved him for one night, he still wouldn't let go of any chance to set him a trap.It's a pity that the distance is a bit far, and I can't reach it without moving.

But this time Zhong Qingyu really wronged Qi Shao. This night was too exciting, and Qi Shao felt that his brain was short-circuited and he couldn't think normally at all.

"Before, I felt energy that didn't belong to Ying Xiaoxiao in Ying Xiaoxiao's body. Combined with the bus that her own strength was not enough to control, I knew that there was something else behind her. With her ability, I even put my real name I can’t do anything to me if I tell her, but it’s hard to say about the person hiding behind her. That person has been monitoring her. Telling her is equivalent to telling the mastermind behind her. The name has a spirit , It won’t hurt to be on guard at this time.”

Hearing Zhong Qingyu mention Ying Xiaoxiao, Qi Shao suddenly remembered her.He tried his best to prop up his upper body and looked around.Not far away, Ying Xiaoxiao was floating around boredly, without looking carefully, she could find that her soul was much weaker than when I first saw her.

Sensing Qi Shao's gaze, Ying Xiaoxiao stopped, showing a sad look: "Do you finally think of me? I thought you two only had each other in your eyes, and you wouldn't think of taking me with you when you left."

Qi Shao smiled awkwardly.Although Ying Xiaoxiao tricked him into the ghost car at the beginning, she finally saved him at the risk of losing his soul, and she was also a part of this life-saving grace.

"So what's going on with you? How did he control you?" Qi Shao asked.

"I don't know either. After the car accident, I opened my eyes and went to a stone room surrounded by the spirits of other passengers. The man threatened us to help him bring the living to this area. At first we all He didn’t want to, and then he fed a person’s soul to that big tiger in front of us. Everyone was terrified, and some people said they were willing to help him.

I don't know what method he used to shut us all inside the wall.At night, everyone returned to the bus like a dream, but their bodies were out of their control.We just killed one person after another.Those who are willing to help him can be free for a while when they go out to help him deceive people, and those who are unwilling will be completely manipulated to harm others.After staying in that wall for a long time, I feel conscious for a while and then not sober.Many people have gone crazy.

I was afraid that I was going crazy too, so I pretended to help him and asked him to let me out, hoping to find someone to help us.Naturally, he won't trust us so easily, he can know our every move, every word and deed.I dare not tell others about it, and hope that someone will find the abnormality here.Fortunately, now he is finally dead. "Ying Xiaoxiao's voice was full of sadness, "He is dead, but I have also killed many people, and I am just like him..."

"Didn't you say that he was seriously injured when you arrested him, and he should be backlashed later. How did he regain such a powerful ability so quickly?" Qi Shao looked at Zhong Qingyu, and he always felt that there was still something to be done about this matter. It's strange, but his brain is not working well now, and he can't think clearly.

Zhong Qingyu was also very strange about this at the beginning, but when he saw the shadow of the tiger behind Dong Wende, he understood: "He should have been dead for some time. Have you heard of being a slave to a tiger? It is said that people who are eaten by tigers will become A ghost, a ghost is a servant of a tiger, and attracts other people to the tiger as food. But in fact, being eaten by a tiger does not necessarily turn into a ghost, and it is not necessary to be eaten by a tiger to become a ghost The ghost and the tiger are actually a kind of parasitic relationship, the ghost provides food for the tiger, and the tiger continues life for the ghost."

"That's right!" Ying Xiaoxiao nodded and said: "Except for the corpses of us who were not brought back by him at the beginning, the corpses of the other victims who were deceived by us were all fed to tigers by him, and their souls were imprisoned with us Continue to be his slave. His own body rotted so badly that he took over other people’s bodies. I don’t know what method he used to preserve his body, but the rot seems to be slower.”

"Is that really a tiger? Although it looks like it, but it's so big and almost covered by shadows, I thought it was a monster." Qi Shao asked in surprise.

Zhong Qingyu: "It is right to say that it is a monster. It is actually transformed from a tiger after death. It rests on rotten bones. It usually does not appear. Only greedy people make a contract with it to come out to harm people."

After resting for a while, the two gradually regained their strength.

"Let's go." Zhong Qingyu stood up and pulled Qi Shao up, "I have destroyed the Yin Gathering Formation before, and the accumulated Yin Qi will gradually dissipate, and it will take some time to completely disappear. Staying here for a long time is not good for your health. "

"Go? Where are you going?" Qi Shao asked blankly.

"Aren't you going to Taolin Town?"

"That's right, but the car is gone, shall we...do we have to walk?"

Maybe it was amused by Qi Shao's bewildered expression, or maybe it was really a pleasant thing to survive the catastrophe, Zhong Qingyu laughed and felt very good.He pointed not far away, and said, "I'm here by car, I'll give you a ride, let's go."

Qi Shao turned around and saw not only Zhong Qingyu's car, but also his suitcase placed beside the strange camphor tree.

The camphor tree was no longer what Ying Xiaoxiao remembered, but a hollow old tree, and the places where there were lines before became hollow.

It was great that the luggage was not lost!All his documents are in it, if they are lost, it will be troublesome to replace them.

Qi Shao put his luggage away and opened the car door. A round head stuck out, with yellow fur and black stripes, pointed ears, big and bright eyes.

"Ah! This kitten is so cute! Did you raise it? What's its name?" Ying Xiaoxiao called out immediately.

"Yes, I also think it's cute. It's called Huanhuan."

"Your name is too casual, why don't you call it Mao Mao." Ying Xiaoxiao complained.

Zhong Qingyu didn't take it seriously, seeing Huanhuan made him feel a little itchy, he stretched out his hand to catch it, but before he touched it, Huanhuan quickly retracted it.Zhong Qingyu had no choice but to turn to the other side of the car and get on the car.

As soon as he left, Huanhuan jumped back and looked at Qi Shao with curious eyes. Qi Shao tentatively stretched out his hand, but instead of hiding, it stretched out its head and rubbed it.

Zhong Qingyu: "..." As soon as I opened the car door from the other side, I saw this scene, and my heart was about to break.After raising him for so long and not allowing him to pat his hair casually, Qi Shao, a stranger he met for the first time, is very obedient.

The two treated each other's wounds briefly, during which Huanhuan always came to rub Qi Shao from time to time, Zhong Qingyu was so jealous that his eyes almost glowed green.

After dealing with it, Zhong Qingyu took Ying Xiaoxiao and Qi Shao towards Taolin Town.

Under Ying Xiaoxiao's guidance, they came to the door of Ying's house.

Zhong Qingyu: "The Ying family is in front, go and fulfill your contract."

Qi Shao looked back at Ying Xiaoxiao.I saw Ying Xiaoxiao staring blankly at the direction of the house, her expression couldn't tell whether she was happy or sad.

"This is the necklace I bought for my mother, please give it to her..." She took out a necklace with a red string and white jade, and the pendant carved from the jade was white and clear, and it could be seen that it was high-quality jade.

"Aren't you going by yourself?" Qi Shao asked.

Ying Xiaoxiao looked at her home infatuatedly, shook her head after a while, and said, "When I was born, my mother planted a peach blossom tree for me in the back mountain. She said that no matter how far away I am from home, as long as I look When you go to the peach blossom tree, you will think of me.

"I was not good at studying when I was a child, and I didn't get into a good university in the college entrance examination. Unlike my brother, who is good at everything. After the score came out, my dad told me not to study. It is useless and it will only waste money. My mother firmly disagreed, and they quarreled every day because of this. I didn't want to see my mother being angry for me every day, so I ran out of the house.

"In the past few years, I have been working outside, and I have never returned home. I just think that one day, I can make money, prove to my father that I am not worthless, and let my mother live a better life. It's hard. , I made some money and bought a necklace for my mother, I just want to come back and see her..."

Ying Xiaoxiao wiped away her tears, and tried to force a smile: "She knew that I must have been very sad when I died, why let her see me sad again..."

Qi Shao sighed, took the necklace and got out of the car. Just as he walked to the door of Ying's house, the door opened before he had time to knock.

A middle-aged lady with half gray hair and a gray face looked at him in surprise.

"Excuse me, are you Ying Xiaoxiao's mother?"

Ying Xiaoxiao's three words seemed to hurt her heart. She was startled first, then nodded and said, "Who are you?"

"I'm Ying Xiaoxiao's friend. This is the necklace she specially picked out for you as a birthday present. She forgot it in my place before she left. I'll pass it to you for her."

Ying Xiaoxiao's mother took the necklace, holding the necklace in one hand, and stroking it with the other as if stroking the face of a relative she hadn't seen for a long time, staring at it and crying.

Qi Shao silently accompanied the mother who had lost her beloved daughter. After she calmed down a little, he said, "Can I go to the mountain behind your house to see the peach blossoms? I made an appointment with her and I will definitely go. "

Ying's mother nodded while wiping away her tears, and brought Qi Shao to the back mountain of Ying's house.It was past flowering time, and peaches grew one after another under the lush leaves.

Mother Ying took Qi Shao to a relatively thin peach tree. She stroked the trunk, looked at the peach tree and said, "I planted this when Xiaoxiao was born. This tree is here , just like Xiaoxiao is by my side."

In the car, Zhong Qingyu looked at Ying Xiaoxiao's face from the rearview mirror and asked, "Are you sure you don't want to see her?"

Ying Xiaoxiao was silent for a while, and asked: "If I don't want to stay here, will I become like that crazy pregnant woman?"

"Yes, the human world is not a place for dead souls to stay, not to mention that you have been corrupted by demon energy for a long time, and if you stay there, you will gradually lose your sanity."

"You are really...can you be more tactful..." Ying Xiaoxiao stared greedily at her mother's figure, "Forget it, if I see my mother, I definitely don't want to leave, I'm afraid I will get hurt she……"

Ying's mother had already left, but Qi Shao was still standing alone in the peach forest.The peach groves in summer are emerald green, reflecting the rising sun, showing vigorous vitality.

Qi Shao seemed to see Ying Xiaoxiao's dead soul floating out of the necklace and walking into the peach tree.

"Thank you, I'm finally home."

Ying Xiaoxiao's voice seemed to ring in Qi Shao's ears, a gust of wind blew, and the branches and leaves of the peach trees fluttered.
