The Haunted

"Do you still remember Hejia Village?" Chi Yan said, "From the first time I heard about Lin Zhu's death, I felt a strange familiarity. The situation in Hejia Village was like this back then. Many people died, and the corpses were nearby. , but the people around them turned a blind eye, as if being 'obstructed', everyone thought this person was still alive."

He then told Xu Rui about Chi Rong: "I didn't really connect the situation here with Hejia Village until I confirmed that the 'Chi Rong' I had been in contact with since I came back was a dead person. The same is true for Lin Zhu." , he was already dead, Xiaoxin came back and saw him dead, but no one found him until his soul disappeared for some reason, and even ghosts couldn't do it, so people found his body. "

Chi Yan explained what he had observed these days and his own conjectures, and Xu Rui's voice became serious as he listened: "You mean this place has become a world where yin and yang are reversed like Hejia Village? "

"That's right, but I'm still not sure how far this place has developed. When I went there, there were no living people in Hejia Village. The situation here should be a little better, at least like Brother Yingzhi and your uncle. It is easy to be killed. But the situation here may be more serious. There are so many celestial masters, but it is impossible to tell whether the people around are dead or alive... Those celestial masters who came here at about the same time as us should at least be Living people, but judging from Ma Tian's situation, some of these people were also killed." Chi Yan said.

He paused and continued: "Just now my grandfather suddenly said that he wanted to see me, and I got the news that my grandfather was in a coma. Brother Yingzhi has already arranged a car to take me away. I plan to go back directly after seeing my grandfather. Take care of my grandfather. The situation is very dangerous now, Xu Rui, I think you and Xiaoxin should leave with me as soon as possible."

"Let me talk to Xiaoxin." Xu Rui didn't make a decision right away, and ordered over the phone, "Chi Shao, you should also be careful."

The two hung up the phone, and the car just stopped at Chi's house.

Led by the old housekeeper, Chi Yan walked to the ancestral house where old man Chi lived.

The house has a history of more than 300 years. It has a wooden structure and high beams. However, due to the lack of windows, it gives people a dark and cold feeling.After the housekeeper brought him, he closed the door and left.

There was a wooden table inside the room, and there was a person sitting on the chair behind the wooden table. The person was originally facing away from him, but after hearing the noise, he turned around and faced Chi Yan.

After seeing that face clearly, Chi Yan couldn't help but widen his eyes, opened his mouth, and let out a low cry from his throat, almost shouting out.

The person sitting in front of him was not the grandfather he rarely saw, but his father, Chi Yuanshan, who had just passed away, whom he had only met a few days ago.It's just that the person in front of him is not the haggard and sallow look of Chi Yuanshan before his death, but looks more energetic, as if he aged ten years overnight.

Chi Yan took a step back vigilantly, staring at that person: "Who are you?"

The man didn't answer him, just looked at him, and suddenly smiled: "Ye Yingzhi actually asked you to come here. Chi Linsheng's soul has been in Ye's house all along, and it disappeared completely not long ago. He knew that Chi Linsheng How dare you come to see me. I originally prepared other methods, but now it seems that they are useless."

Chi Linsheng was the name of Chi Yan's grandfather.This man said so, which proves that he is neither his grandfather Chi Linsheng, nor his father Chi Yuanshan.He is a thing in the shell of his father.

Chi Yan had no time to think about the meaning of his words, but was more vigilant: "Who are you?"

The man waved to him: "Xiao Yan, I am your grandfather. You saw me when you were young, but you forgot after a few years away from home?"

Great grandfather... His great grandfather, his father's grandfather, obviously passed away when his mother was still pregnant with him.It is impossible for him to have met his great-grandfather, but the person in front of him said that he had met him... Then he could only refer to "him" who appeared in other identities.

In contact with what he said before, Chi Yan thought of a lot in a blink of an eye—could it be that the person he thought was his grandfather when he was a child has always been wearing Chi Linsheng's shell? grandfather"?It's like he has somehow used some method to put on his father's shell again?Brother Yingzhi might have known something a long time ago, so he calmly encouraged himself to come and find out everything?

Chi Yan didn't dare to think about it any further, and it wouldn't make much sense to focus on those things now.He collected himself and felt a little more at ease, so brother Yingzhi had already made preparations and nothing would happen.

"It was you who replaced Chi Linsheng before? You also always knew about my father being poisoned? You killed Chi Rong, and you were the one who wanted to kill me before? You asked me to come this time. Want to kill me and take over my body?" He stared intently at the man in front of him who claimed to be his grandfather, and asked straightforwardly.

Regardless of whether this person is his real grandfather or not, if he is not the real Chi Linsheng, then it is understandable that he would secretly support his father being manipulated by Gu insects.

His father is the eldest son of Chi, who has a certain influence in Chi's family. If he is sober, he will definitely find out the violation of his biological father over time, and he will find that the person in Chi Linsheng's body is no longer "Chi Linsheng" .If he and the elders of the clan reveal this point together, even if this thing bears Chi Linsheng's shell, it may not be able to suppress it.

But if Chi Yuanshan became delirious due to being infected by a Gu, the situation would be quite different.Under being manipulated, his mind changed drastically, and it was difficult for him to notice what was wrong with his father, Chi Linsheng, so the substitute didn't have to worry about being discovered.Besides, Chi Rong's mother has no ambitions, she manipulates Chi Yuan Shan just to get her own sick imaginary "love". , will not add any additional trouble.

"Don't worry, I can't occupy your body. As long as Ye Yingzhi tells me how to use the ghost energy here to continue my life, I will let you go." The person holding Chi Yuanshan's body said, then closed his eyes, Say goodbye to Chi Yan.

He used to want to directly take the opportunity to kill Chi Yan to control his soul, the dead are better to control than the living, it is the best bargaining chip to negotiate terms with Ye Yingzhi.But now he has changed his mind. This child seems to be more important to Ye Yingzhi than he imagined before. He doesn't know what Ye Yingzhi has behind him. He will not take risks until he gets the life extension method he wants. move him.

Can't occupy your own body?Haunted?Chi Yan frowned, is this place really full of ghosts like Hejia Village?Why did he say he couldn't occupy his body?

Chi Yan tried to ask that person, but that person ignored him, and just closed his eyes and leaned on the chair to rest.

Chi Yan suddenly remembered something.When he was four or five years old, a hundred-year-old evil spirit that had been sealed in a forbidden area by the ancestors of the Chi family ran out into his house, trying to snatch his young body.He can still recall the feeling of coldness running down his spine and into his brain, and it was so uncomfortable that he burst into tears at that time.Then the bleak chill suddenly disappeared again.When he grew up, he thought about this and asked his mother. His mother said that Chi's family, who tracked down the whereabouts of the evil spirit, came to him and showed him. He had too much evil in his body, and he was domineering, but he was in harmony with his own soul. As soon as the evil spirit squeezed in, it was swallowed up by the evil energy in his body.

So maybe it's because of the evil spirit in his body that this person can't take over his body?Now that he has occupied the bodies of his grandfather Chi Linsheng and his father Chi Yuanshan successively, assuming he can only occupy the bodies of the descendants of the Chi family, it is even more natural for him to support Chi Rong's mother and son to enter the house-he has to give himself another Have a working container ready.

Then it makes sense for him to kill Chi Rong before, he may have a premonition that his grandfather Chi Linsheng's body has reached the limit and can no longer be used. Chi Rong is of course a better choice.It's just that Chi Rong's body turned into a mummy, so he had no choice but to temporarily live in Chi Yuanshan's body, waiting for the so-called "life extension method".

"You know that Chi Rong is dead, but others can see him and think he is still alive? You know that many people here have died, and it has become the same situation as Chi Rong. This place is about to become a place where yin and yang are reversed." The world?" Chi Yan now wants to know if all this has anything to do with the person in front of him.

"Chi Yuanshan" only opened his eyes and glanced at him when he heard "yin and yang reversed", then closed his eyes again and did not speak.

Chi Yan couldn't help but continued to ask: "Why are you so sure that the Ye family has the way to continue your life?"

The man answered him this time: "Chi Linsheng's soul has been separated from the body for so many years, and the Ye family has a way to preserve it, which shows that the Ye family's ghost skills are indeed extraordinary. Besides, Ye Yingzhi should have died a long time ago, so He has been hanging half-dead for many years, and the ghost aura on his body is exactly the same as the ghost aura coiled here, all of which are getting heavier and heavier, the only explanation can only be that he has a way to use the ghost energy of heaven and earth to continue his life."

At this moment, the door was knocked lightly three times, and a cool and gentle voice sounded outside: "A Yan, the car is already waiting outside, and will take you back to see grandpa, come out quickly."

Chi Yan glanced back, and hesitantly opened the door.

The door was easily pushed open, and Ye Yingzhi stood outside the door. Seeing him, he lowered his head and touched his face: "Do you know everything Ah Yan wants to know?"

"...No." Chi Yan lowered his eyes aggrievedly.

Ye Yingzhi smiled lightly: "It's okay. Next, I'll talk to this gentleman for you. You can go and wait for my brother to see you."

Chi Yan wanted to ask him about Chi Lin's birth and ghost qi's continued life; he wanted to ask him what he knew before, whether he knew that his grandfather was gone, and that the person behind his shell was an inexplicable person who called himself Grandpa's stuff; I want to ask him if he knows how to deal with the reversed yin and yang situation here... But it seems that this is not a good time, and there is an unknown thing waiting in the house.

In the end, he only slightly raised his head and kissed Ye Yingzhi's ear: "Brother Yingzhi, don't hurt my father's body, can you help him bury his body?"

Ye Yingzhi looked at him with dark eyes, touched his lips: "OK."

No matter what it is, brother Yingzhi certainly won't lose.
