Ancient Art of Sealing Ghosts

This wire is extremely thin, and there is a cold light everywhere, which looks very familiar.I squinted my eyes, and suddenly recalled the black-haired woman I met in the Yuan Dynasty emperor's mausoleum, when she was fighting the corpse king, didn't she just wave such a wire in her hand.

So, don't we run into acquaintances?

I turned my head to look at Dao Feng in surprise, but he nodded slightly to show that I was right.

The man who was secretly manipulating the Gu people and the snakes was actually in the same group as the black-haired woman surnamed Tang. Both of them were quite capable, so it was no wonder that they were able to enter the Golden City quietly.

Everything in Dingzong’s tomb is still vivid in my mind. I can’t forget the tragedy of the uncle’s last stand-in being killed in the bombing and the injury Dao Feng suffered, as well as the vow I made silently at that time, that I must let that person deliberately plot to murder us. woman pays the price.

This is not a pretentious rhetoric, but pure revenge.

It is said that women are small-minded. Unfortunately, I am also small-minded. Whoever offends me, I will make her pay back double.

Thinking of this, I clenched my left hand tightly, my thoughts moved slightly, and immediately I felt an unbearable tingling pain in my index finger.

Driven by me, Xiaohai's eyes burst into red light, and the monster's pure black hair swept over the sky and covered the sky. The twisted and rolling snakes on the ground were tightly restrained by the hair, and then there was a burst of blood and flesh tearing. All were crushed into slag.After finishing off the group of snakes, the long black hair followed closely, passed through the imperceptible wires, and went straight to the man hiding behind the wood carving.

With a cry of surprise, the man was dragged out from the hiding place with his hands and feet entangled in black hair. He held onto the wood carving tightly with both hands, and his legs were stretched straight under the forceful pull of the black hair. If it wasn't for the support of the belt, he might Pants were ripped off.

"Damn it! What, you uncle, stop it!" The man was in a mess and messed up, and viciously cursed my ancestors for eight generations, including a few words of Yunnan Han dialect that we had heard before.

Surprised in my heart, I took out my wolf eyes and shone on his face, wanting to see what this man looked like.

"You fucking want to blind me!" The man noticed the light, and immediately closed his eyes tightly, and reminded me not to shine the wolf's eye flashlight into people's eyes.

I looked at the pale face exposed in front of our eyes, and thought that the person who attacked us was awesome, but I didn't expect it to be a white face, so I replied: "I like to use wolf eyes to look at people's eyes." , How about it, don’t let go? It’s not difficult for me to break your two arms.”

"I'm your mother." The man cursed again, then let go of his hand unwillingly, letting himself be dragged in front of us as if discouraged.

I signaled Xiaohai to retract her long hair, then looked down at the man at my feet.

The man noticed that the things that restrained him had disappeared, he glanced at me in surprise, and then simply sat cross-legged on the ground with his arms crossed, as if I wouldn't say anything if you asked me.

Dao Feng and I looked at each other, Dao Feng looked at me with an inscrutable face, then turned his head to look at the man, and asked first, "Where is Tangning?"

Hearing this name, the man was visibly shocked. He looked up at Dao Feng suspiciously, but refused to speak.

At this time the uncle and sister Xuan also came over. Hearing Dao Feng's question, the uncle frowned and said, "Tangning, is that Tangning? When did you know it was her?"

Dao Feng didn't deliberately hide it, and said truthfully: "I was not sure when I met her for the first time. Later, when we fought again, she didn't deny that she was from the Tang family. I guessed that she was Tangning most likely."

"No wonder." The uncle nodded, knelt down and asked the man, "Are you Han or Miao? Your clothes are embroidered with silver ornaments, you can speak Yunnan dialect, and you can speak fluent Chinese..." Seeing the man disdain Turning his head away, the uncle smiled and continued: "I guess...your mother is from the Miao nationality, and she is a grass hag. She taught you all the tricks of manipulating Gu insects. It's a pity that your mother married Han people, you grew up in a Han village, so you know some local dialect, and later moved to other places, so your Mandarin is very standard...isn't it?"

"You..." The man's eyes widened in surprise. This expression made him look a little childish. He gritted his teeth, and his voice seemed to come out of his throat: "Fart!"

"Hahaha." The uncle clapped his hands and stood up triumphantly. He smiled because anyone with a discerning eye could see that he had guessed right, otherwise the man wouldn't look like he was poked into a sore spot.

I shook my head regretfully, thinking that you are still fighting with the uncle at your level, so let's rest early.

Sister Xuan obviously also admired the uncle's extraordinary insight, she smiled and patted the uncle's shoulder, bent down and said to the man: "Little bastard, don't rush to play tricks, if you dare to move the old lady, I will break your dog legs, but you Seeing that you are caught by us now, your accomplices have no intention of coming out to save you, and you are still keeping your mouth shut to help them keep their secrets... I really wonder how much they spent to raise your loyal dog?"

Sister Xuan has always been vicious towards her enemies, so what she said was very merciless. She was sure that no man would be able to bear this kind of sarcasm.

The man was really irritated by her, and almost jumped up on the spot to fight her desperately, but was kicked to the ground by Dao Feng swiftly.

"If you want to survive, don't move." Dao Feng stepped on the man's chest. His face was stern, his dark eyes were ruthless, and there was a hint of amusement in his deep voice: "If you are going to die, Tangning will not save you. Don't try to keep it a secret." Oh, you don't know much about the inside story."

"Then get your dirty feet away!" The man was trampled almost out of breath, a look of viciousness flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly stretched out his hand to push Dao Feng's foot.

Before he could make a move, I strode over to grab his hand, and saw a long black-purple worm slowly creeping out from his sleeve.If this long worm is allowed to get into Dao Feng's body, Dao Feng is probably over.

I shook off the bug, crushed it with my foot, and looked at him coldly.

The man was caught by me, and he snorted and turned his head away.

Seeing his disobedient appearance, I grinned and said, "Isn't it disobedient, I will still treat you if you are disobedient."

As I said that, I took out a strong and tough climbing rope from my backpack, and with the assistance of Daofeng and Sister Xuan, I tied the man into a rice dumpling, leaving only a small section at the end for dragging.

"Oh shit, it's quite heavy." I tied the end of the rope to my hand and dragged the man away like a dead dog. If I remember correctly, there seems to be such a punishment in ancient times, but it was dragged by horses. Not so advanced stuff, can only rely on manpower.

"Fuck, are you still human!" The man wailed again and again, fearing that his scalp would be worn out, so he could only bend his body as much as possible. Although his back was covered by clothes and ropes, it would be miserable to endure this kind of friction for a long time .

"Do you still have humanity!" He gritted his teeth and continued to curse.

"Why didn't you think about this when you were manipulating the Gu people." The uncle clicked his tongue twice, shook his head and sighed.

"It just needs to be cleaned up." Sister Xuan concluded.

Seeing Sister Xuan's smile, I couldn't help thinking, Sister Xuan seems to like to watch other people being raped, especially this man is not bad, she didn't feel pity at all.

We dragged the man to the depths of the tomb, and we didn't encounter that weird human skin painting again along the way, but the surrounding wood carvings were still neatly arranged, making it hard to tell whether they were organs or simple decorations.

The tomb is connected to a corner of a hall, and the secret passage is slanted upwards. I dragged a big living man, and almost lost half of my life to climb up, and after I climbed up, the man almost lost half of his life.Because I had to take care of both sides, I accidentally let go of my hand a few times, and immediately heard him screaming and rolling down, so I had to slide down again and drag him up.This has happened several times, he has been tormented by me to the point of losing his mind.

Dao Feng was waiting for me at the exit, and when he saw my head popping out, he reached out to help. Seeing that the man's black hair was messed up by me and he was almost unconscious, there was a sly smile on the corner of his mouth.But Dao Feng was always softer than me. He helped the man up and let him walk behind us, which greatly relieved the man's pain.

I saw that man didn't show a good face when Dao Feng helped him, and when Dao Feng turned around, he kept staring at him suspiciously, thinking that this kid would not fall in love with Lao Dao just because of such a little favor Alright, then would I have been considered the most heinous devil by him?

"Tsk..." I frowned, stretched the rope vigorously, and said angrily, "Be honest!"

He was stretched by me and almost fell, gritted his teeth and stared at me angrily.

"That's about the same." I smiled, thinking that it's no wonder that there were so many punishments in ancient times. Torturing people is really a pleasant thing, especially if this person is your enemy.

In the middle of the main hall is a pool similar to a fountain. The area of ​​the pool is quite large. The pavilions and pavilions in the middle are like a fairyland. There are many aquatic plants in the pool, but most of them have withered and cannot see their original appearance. The bottom of the water is so dark that people dare not reach out easily. Go in and try it out.

I looked at this obviously decorative pool, turned my head to the uncle and said, "What is this place, why is there still a pool?"

The uncle replied without blinking his eyes, "Health Palace."

"how do you know?"

"Isn't that written?"

I looked in the direction of the uncle's flashlight, and sure enough, I saw the three big characters of the Palace of Health written in gilded ancient Chinese characters on the pillars on both sides.

"Why did you use Chinese characters instead of ancient Nanzhao?" Sister Xuan asked in confusion.

"It's not easy." The uncle rubbed his chin and said, "At the beginning, there were Han Chinese among the craftsmen who built this underground palace, and there were more than one designer. I am afraid that Han Chinese also accounted for the majority."

After the uncle explained, we walked around the pool and continued to move forward.

At the end of the main hall are the steps that extend downwards. The steps are wide and long. It is no problem for three or four adults to lie side by side on them. As a result, we have to take a few steps to go to the next step.

In order to avoid unexpected situations, we have to step on each step before stepping down. The distance of the flashlight light has been shortened a lot, and it also makes us more vigilant, always beware of things like human skin paintings appearing in front of us.

The uncle teased the man with words while walking. When he asked the man's name, the other party said something about Wang Rui indiscriminately. The uncle's eyes changed slightly, and he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Your hands are tied now, and you can't balance your body. I lightly Push it lightly and you have to fall, why, you are still playing tricks with me, trying to roll down from here?"

Although this man is good at playing Gu, he doesn't seem to know much about the world. He has a kind of student's innocence. Simply put, he is more cabbage than me.Seeing that there was really no way to fool him, he reluctantly gave his name: "Xiang Wen."

The uncle carefully looked at the annoyed expression in his eyes, and finally said with satisfaction: "Good boy, you have a good name, but it's a pity that you followed Tangning, you won't survive long under her hands, and we won't kill you, we will release you when we get there Hurry up and think about your own future."

"You don't need to talk nonsense." Xiang Wen snorted, with a look of resentment on his face: "I will naturally have my reasons with her."

The uncle said nothing more, shook his head and walked a few steps forward, while Xiang Wen lowered his head, hiding his expression under his messy hair.

Seeing Xiang Wen's resoluteness, I guess there must be some ulterior reason for him to be so unwilling to help Tangning. This may have something to do with his family. After all, his parents are not of the same family, so sometimes things can be troublesome a lot of.

Below the stairs is an open platform, and a deep ditch is connected to the front of the platform. The ditch is very scary in terms of width, depth, and length. You can’t see the situation on the opposite side and at both ends. If you look down with a flashlight, it’s pitch black. Can't see the end.

The uncle pulled out the cigarette case stuffed in the inner pocket of his clothes, took out the remaining cigarettes in it, and then squeezed the cigarette case into a ball and threw it down.

We stood there for a long time, but we didn't hear the sound of the cigarette box hitting the bottom, but Xiang Wen's hearing was excellent, and he told us that it was at least a hundred meters deep below.

I saw that the uncle's brows were almost twisted into a ball. He glanced at Xiang Wen, waved his hand and said, "Go back, there's no game here."

As I was walking back, I noticed that Xiang Wen's expression changed for a moment, and then he quickly returned to his original dickish look. This made me wonder if he heard Tangning's voice, and was trying to let us take advantage of our unpreparedness. Tangning rescued him.

However, when we were about to walk back to the main hall, I knew that the truth was not what I thought. Xiang Wen didn't hear Tangning's voice hiding in the dark, but a strange movement in the main hall.

Dao Feng heard the sound first, and then signaled us to be careful. After walking a few steps forward, I heard the sound of swimming like swimming.

"What's coming out?" Miss Xuan asked in a low voice.

"It's probably a monster in the water." The uncle nodded, telling us to get ready. These things came out to attack us when we reached a dead end. The purpose was obviously to put us to death.

Although the road here leads directly to the end without any cover, the uncle still decided to let us sit on the sidelines and wait for the rabbit to stop. In this dark environment where no human face can be seen, rushing forward is undoubtedly a dead end.

According to what the uncle said, we hid behind the pillar. This pillar is only as thick as two people hugging, and it will be able to hide people. We held our breath and waited quietly for the arrival of those aquatic creatures.To be honest, I am afraid that there are quite a few of them based on the sound just now. The four of us are dragging a strong tail. It is still a question of whether we can escape, let alone kill them.

Dao Feng also seemed to be worried about this problem. He put the black cat on his shoulder on the ground, and the black cat jumped out knowingly.I think Dao Feng is probably planning to use the black cat as bait to attract the attention of those things, and then wait until they rush over, and then we will rush forward.

The four of us plus a tail hid behind two pillars, while Dao Feng stood in front of me, holding his breath and watching the movements in the hall vigilantly. I glanced at Xiang Wen, who was watching the show, and suddenly wanted to beat him up. Get dizzy and throw it aside, save yourself from making any amazing moves to interfere with our movements later.

In the dark, I heard the sound of Sister Xuan adjusting the gun, and also heard the sound of crawling from the depths of the hall. Those things that lived in the water all the year round rushed towards our location with a strong smell of water Every step they take, they hit the ground like a puddle of water, and there are splashes and splashes, which makes me wonder more and more what they are.

Sister Xuan's gun was the first to go off, and Dao Feng followed closely behind. I hid behind the pillar, and even with a flashlight, I couldn't see much. I could only see black shadows flashing by. to its real body.Although Xiaohai is not affected by the darkness here, she will not do unnecessary things without my instructions, not to mention that my life is not threatened now, so it cannot be a reason for her to do it.

I looked at Xiaohai who was standing in front of me and watched the battle, and wished I could go up and fight them twice, but I knew in my heart that rushing over with my own two brushes would only add to the chaos, and Dao Feng and sister Xuan might have to come to the rescue.

Sister Xuan did not use a submachine gun this time, but replaced it with a sharper sniper rifle. Through infrared rays, she probably already saw the appearance of those things, but she didn't know if she had found the opponent's weakness.

During the period when I was anxiously looking for a breakthrough and wanted to join the battle, I didn't hear any cries for help or screams, which showed that although Dao Feng and Sister Xuan couldn't kill them all in one go, it was more than enough to dodge them.I have to find a way to get in touch with uncle now, otherwise there is no point in waiting like this.

Thinking of this, I tied Xiang Wen to the pillar, and then quickly rushed to the opposite side.

Unexpectedly, after only two steps, I felt a damp breath blowing towards my face. I froze for a moment, and my steps slowed down immediately. Curiosity drove me to turn on the flashlight, and a rotting, muddy human face suddenly appeared in the field of vision. .

I screamed in fright, and was immediately dragged aside by a hand. Dao Feng was short of breath, and kicked away the thing that could not be seen as a human or a ghost, then pushed me hard, and shouted: "Go over there and hide!"

My heart was beating fast, and I stumbled and ran behind the pillar. The uncle dragged me over in time to prevent me from being attacked by other monsters.

"What the hell is that? It almost scared me to death." I was panting, and I was a little worried. Those kind of things seemed like ghosts but not humans, and there were so many of them, no matter how powerful Dao Feng was, he couldn't handle them all.

"Water ghost." The uncle pressed his forehead and said with a headache: "I didn't expect to encounter big trouble here. Now I have to run away. We can't do it head-on."

The horrible and weird face with barely distinguishable facial features appeared again in my mind, and the black mud-like rotten flesh, nodded and said: "If you want to run, run, I'm afraid that Dao Feng and Sister Xuan will not be able to hold on."

As soon as I finished speaking, there was a burst of intense gunshots not far away. Presumably, sister Xuan could no longer calmly use the sniper rifle, so she could only make a surprise attack with a submachine gun behind her.

I thought of Xiang Wen who was tied to the pillar, so I said to the uncle: "I will release Xiang Wen, and I will come back to you immediately, and then I will find a way to notify Daofeng and Sister Xuan, and then rush out together."

The uncle waved his hand to signal me to go quickly, and he opened his backpack and rummaged through it for an engineer shovel as a weapon.

I took Xiaohai through the main hall again, this time with experience, Xiaohai stopped any water ghosts that approached and threw them under the steps, while I ran behind the pillar at the fastest speed.

Unexpectedly, in just a few minutes, there was no trace of Xiang Wen behind the pillar, and even the rope disappeared completely. I cursed secretly, turned around and wanted to run back, but was suddenly caught A pair of arms were strangled from behind, and the man reacted very quickly, not allowing me to make a sound, and immediately blocked my mouth.

The man who strangled me was tall, at least half a head taller than me, with thick and strong arms. I could clearly feel the hard muscles in his chest. Needless to say, I knew he was the one who rescued Xiang Wen and came back to find fault.So I stopped struggling, knowing that this man obviously planned to rob me. If I struggled in vain, he would probably break my neck or knock me out.

"Heh." Seeing that I was obedient and no longer moving around, he suddenly let out a low laugh, the voice was deep and deep, revealing an uncomfortable coldness.

I was dragged away by him, away from the three people who were being entangled by the water ghost bit by bit, and I couldn't help feeling anxious. Only then did I notice that Xiao Hai was no longer by my side at some point. I struggled to look to my left hand and found that The black stripes are still there, but no matter how I summon him, Xiao Hai refuses to show up.

"Don't try it, your morality is not enough. An evil ghost of that level will be afraid of me when it sees me, so naturally it won't come out." The man whispered in my ear: "I didn't expect your vertical ghost to be printed on your hand. It's much easier now."

I was taken aback, and just as I was about to turn around to see who he was, I was hit in the back of the neck by a blow.

Accompanied by the severe pain came a strong sense of dizziness, my eyes darkened almost instantly, my body fell limply on the ground uncontrollably, and I had no idea where he had taken me.

Before I completely fell into a coma, I heard someone approaching the man, there were about four or five of them, and then the man's last voice: "You sleep here for a while, we'll be right back...you can call me Daoyuan."

The sound of the mechanism closing sounded, and the death-like silence struck, gradually making me fall into the real abyss of deep sleep.
