Ancient Art of Sealing Ghosts

"This human skin has a hallucinogenic effect. It emits a colorless and odorless gas, which is similar to poison. With the complicated arrangement of strange human-shaped wood carvings on both sides, it will make people unconsciously hallucinate." Uncle Analyzing clearly and logically.

I said "Oh" and asked: "I also think those wood carvings are very strange, but I don't see what is so strange... But, is it just me and sister Xuan who were recruited? Why are you and Dao Feng all right?"

When the uncle heard my question, he shook his head with a sneer, and said, "I can't fall into this illusion. Even if this body enters the illusion, as long as my real body is safe, I can still control it as I like." Dao Feng It's even simpler. The Dao family has dealt with toxins all year round because of raising tomb beasts, and they have a certain resistance. They can't do anything to ordinary small poisons, let alone the cat, it will not let Dao Feng fall into hallucinations easily .”

After the uncle explained, I couldn't help but feel even more depressed, thinking that these are just two old foxes, every time something happens, only Sister Xuan and I lose face, and seeing Sister Xuan's appearance, I guess she has suffered a lot from the hallucination.

Thinking about it, I continued to ask: "Will this poison damage people's spirit?"

The uncle saw me glance at Sister Xuan, rubbed his chin and said, "As far as I can tell, the poison may make people see in their hallucinations the hidden desires in their hearts, the things they don't want to recall, or the things they fear the most. things, so the mental damage should be more or less a little bit."

"The hidden desire in my heart..." I muttered these words in a low voice, recalling what I saw with Dao Feng and what I had said to him, I felt a sharp pain in my nerves all over my body.

I looked at Dao Feng with an indifferent expression, and saw him raise his eyes and look back. His deep black eyes were spotless, and I had to quickly destroy those weird thoughts in my heart. They were like garbage and waste paper, and could no longer appear in my eyes in mind.

That's a hallucination, the sequelae of hallucinations, don't think about it... I pressed the center of my eyebrows and told myself silently.

However, no matter how determined I was, I could never forget the inexplicable throbbing in my heart at that time.

"The problem now is..." the uncle said suddenly, saving me from my wild thoughts, and he said in a leisurely manner: "How do we get out of here? This secret road is so short, there are no other traps, It is impossible to escape from here, and I guess, the hallucinogenic effect produced by those human skins is not the main purpose...Have you heard of the descending technique?"

"Shipping technique?" I pondered for a moment, then said, "Is it the head-dropping technique mentioned in ghost stories?"

"Almost." The uncle nodded and continued: "Subduing technique is to use props such as poisonous Gu charms to achieve the purpose of controlling people's body and mind. It is a very powerful sorcery. Sorcery first originated from Taoism in Yunnan, China, which is the place under our feet... So, if Dao Feng hadn't arrived in time just now, once the human skin is attached to your body, you will never come back. "

"Stick it to me?" I shuddered, imagining the scene, and my scalp tingled for a while: "Then what should I do, it's like hitting cotton with Sister Xuan's gun, not to mention it's so dark here, a little If you don’t pay attention to that thing, it will float behind you, the more of us there are, the bigger their targets are, isn’t this a one-post-one-pointer?”

"Don't worry." The uncle raised his hand to stop me, frowned and said, "I'll think about it again."

As soon as the uncle spoke, we immediately quieted down. I took out a bottle of mineral water from my backpack and handed it to Sister Xuan who was sitting on the ground in a trance.

"Thank you." Sister Xuan took the water bottle, raised her head and took a big sip, then stared at the thing in her hand in a daze.

"It's okay, don't think about it, it's just an illusion." I know that my way of comforting people is very frustrating, but I can't say anything else to comfort people now.

"It's okay." Sister Xuan was stunned for a moment, then raised her tender lips, and looked at me with interest: "Why, does my heart hurt?"

"..." Calling you cheap, I wish I could slap myself, but looking at her like this, she seems to have recovered, so I can only say awkwardly, "It's good that you're fine."

Dao Feng kept silently leaning against the wall while I was comforting Sister Xuan. He lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. Curl up and rub your body twice.

I just wanted to have fun watching it, and I thought that this cat is really sticky, it is coquettish and rolls around, even cats can be cute these days?

Dao Feng noticed my gaze, but he didn't look back as usual. Instead, he turned his head to the side, and with half a glance, he slowly let out a deep voice: "Someone is coming."

"Who is it?" I listened suspiciously, and sure enough I heard a crawling sound coming from the tomb outside, and I couldn't help but disgusted: "Are you sure it's a human voice?"

Dao Feng shook his head: "Listen carefully."

Seeing that Dao Feng was so sure, I had no choice but to suppress my slightly restless mood, hold my breath and listen to the noise in the tomb with full concentration.

It didn't take long for me to discover that the crawling sounds were very similar to those made by snakes, and in these crawling sounds, there was a kind of very light footsteps mixed in. The footsteps matched the speed and frequency of the snakes, walking Neither fast nor slow, I can almost imagine how determined this person is taking steps. He is so proficient in his voice that he is extremely confident, and there is no sign of hesitation in every step.

This made me think of the person who pushed me into the ravine and then took the opportunity to attack Uncle and Sister Xuan.

The uncle obviously also heard this voice, he gave Dao Feng a thumbs up, and sighed in a low voice: "Only you Dao family can hear it."

Dao Feng's stern expression didn't change at all, and he replied lightly: "I only started to pay attention after I fell into the valley."

I looked at him and knew that he meant that I told him that someone pushed me after I climbed up from the valley. That is to say, since then, Dao Feng has been paying special attention to the movement around him. No wonder he can easily catch him this time. To the sound of that person's footsteps.

"Since there is a change, let's go and see how that person plans to deal with the human skin paintings here." The uncle picked up Sister Xuan who was on the ground, pretending to be serious and said: "Ms. Ji can open it directly if necessary." Kill him with a gun to prevent future troubles."

Sister Xuan glanced at the uncle in surprise, then slapped his hand off without shame, and hummed, "It's up to you to say."

The uncle didn't say anything else, and smiled with the corners of his mouth open, and then took the lead in walking towards the tomb.

With the help of the cover of the wall, we hid in the corner to observe the guy who likes to sneak attack, and found that he was already surrounded by several human skin paintings, but the light was too dark to see clearly, the flashlight in his hand was always facing away from us, and We didn't dare to open the wolf's eyes casually, for fear of scaring the snake.

Under the dim light, dozens of black lines were indistinct, surrounding the man's feet, like a city wall, and the defense was watertight.As soon as the human skin gets close, several black shadows will jump up, bite the human skin fiercely, and tear it away.

The man calmly shined his flashlight on the nearby wood carvings, as if he was not worried that the human skin painting would cause any harm to him.

Seeing this, the four of us looked at each other tacitly, and we have already seen that this is a man with a leaner figure, and those around his feet are undoubtedly snakes.

The human skin paintings withered and scattered one by one, and in the end it seemed that the entire army was wiped out. Although the snakes that had bitten the human skin paintings twisted and writhed on the ground and bit each other, they did not cause any trouble to the man.

It can only be said that this man won the battle with the human skin painting just now, and won a perfect victory by relying on the sea of ​​snakes tactics.

The things that originally hindered us were wiped out by a strange man in such a short period of time, which made our "Gang of Four" feel a sense of failure.

The man seemed to have heard our voices a long time ago. After finishing those human skin paintings, he immediately raised his arms and pointed his thumb in our direction.

Those snakes received the order, quickly adjusted their bodies, and rushed towards our position.

I looked at the swarm of snakes surging like a tide under the strong light of the flashlight, my back burst into cold sweat, and hurriedly summoned Xiao Hai to stand in front of me.

Sister Xuan was faster than me. When the man raised his hand, he raised his submachine gun. The bullets pierced the air arrogantly and went straight to the man's face.

The man was not a vegetarian either. Sensing Sister Xuan's motives, he immediately rolled to the side and ran to the back of the wood carving as hard as he could, shrinking into an area we couldn't see.

As long as he is a few tenths of a second behind, the bullet will penetrate his head.This made me have to guess whether he escaped this disaster by relying on his unusually sensitive hearing.

Without a man as a target, Sister Xuan had no choice but to lower the muzzle of her gun and knock out the poisonous snakes that tried to pounce on them one by one.

However, going on like this is not an option. Sister Xuan has a limited number of bullets, and it is impossible to waste all of them here.

The uncle understood the seriousness of the matter, and quickly gestured to Dao Feng. Dao Feng understood, and threw the black cat out with a raised arm, while he followed closely behind with his agility.

Such an act of abandoning the pawns to win the commander quickly made the man feel a sense of crisis, he hastily recalled the snake group, and turned to rush towards Dao Feng who was approaching him.

I laughed to myself that this man is good at dealing with a few dead creatures, but he would be doomed when facing the flexible and changeable "Gang of Four". I really don't know if this is his advantage or disadvantage.

Thinking about it, I drove Xiao Hai to stop those snakes, then rushed out to Dao Feng's side in big strides, preparing to outflank the kid from left to right.

Unexpectedly, just when I was about to rush over with all my strength, Dao Feng grabbed me, and almost broke the bones of my hand with such strength.

"Wait." He panted a few times, his black eyes fixed on a certain place ahead, and a trace of surprise flashed through his eyes.

"Be careful." Dao Feng pointed at the thing that surprised him, and whispered to me.

I looked intently in puzzlement, and found that on the way we were walking, a few iron wires that were so tiny that they could not be discerned by the naked eye were hanging in the air, shining slightly coldly under the chaotic light and shadow reflection...
