The Exorcist

Unexpectedly, after that, the Ye family began to feel restless in the house. The weather was obviously very dry, but everywhere was wet. In the middle of the night, there were knocking sounds of various rhythms, some like knocking on the door, some like whipping, please. Many mages are useless, and fleeing servants always die halfway through. Until one night, people in the whole town heard the sound of gongs and drums to welcome the relatives in Ye's house, and they tossed and bustled all night. People die for a long time.

He died horribly, with a pale face and protruding eyes, as if he died of suffocation. Judging from the large puddles of water on each bed, he might as well have been drowned. He was drowned in his own bed during a severe drought. , the butler's body even jumped up like a fake corpse when touched.

Only Ms. Ye's mother and son died in different ways - the mother was hanged in the middle of the hall wearing a bright red wedding dress, her tongue sticking out very long, while the child was roasted like charcoal, but only a pair of dull eyes remained open. But this is not over yet. Since then, people in the whole town have been constantly harassed. Either people inside or outside the door can see other things behind each other, or objects in the house will talk for no reason. peaceful.

This has been going on for several years, and when everyone wanted to leave their hometown, a very young Taoist priest wandered here and saw that there was a lot of resentment here, so he carved a strange charm on a stone sword and threw it on the ground. In the place where the scholar sank in the river, the peace of the past has been restored here.

"Do you think 'it' is that scholar?" Xiao Xia looked at her arm, and there was already a layer of goose bumps on it.

"Nine times out of ten." Ruan Zhan ate his food, feeling a little bit of revenge for Xiao Xia's terrified expression. "I speculate that it has about a hundred years of resentment, and the folk customs here are conservative and simple. Such a big event has happened in the past hundred years. Think, if it is not rare and sensational, how can I easily inquire about such a long-term event."

"Oh my god, I thought all the wraiths were women!"

"It can be seen that men and women are bullied all over the world. Didn't you hear Li Jingming talk about his own situation?"

"But although Li Jingming has similarities with it, they are not the same. Besides, he was also responsible at the time, why was he so spineless and refused to leave! There is also that Miss Ye, who didn't like him and sent him away. Now, why abuse him and humiliate him! Tell me, is he really going to kill his wife, or is he being framed?"

"The element of framing is bigger."

"It's terrible, why not kill him quickly, why did you wrong him! This scholar is the same, and he also took revenge. Why is the resentment still alive for a hundred years? Others must do the same. As for it!" Xiao Xia felt a little sympathetic to the scholar, I also feel that he did too much later, this is the so-called 'poor man must have something to hate'. Especially now that it is even hurting people.

Ruan Zhan saw that Xiao Xia was wishful thinking there, and couldn't help interrupting her escape from reality.

"Its resentment is too deep, how can it be considered according to common sense. If it is a human being, it refers to the extreme paranoia in psychology. Unless it has a thorough understanding and untie the knot in its heart, it must be eliminated before it can be terminated."

Xiao Xia thought about Ruan Zhan's words, and suddenly felt that the story was no longer a distant matter, but a problem they urgently wanted to solve, but she didn't know if Ruan Zhan had the mana of the young Taoist priest a hundred years ago.

"What are we going to do?" she asked.

"I'm waiting for Wanli to check in the diving equipment, and then go down the river to see if it's what I guessed—the sword curse on the stone sword has weakened with the passage of time and the deepening of the scholar's grievances, and Li Jing Mingxin's resentment just gave him the final strength to undo it." He also wanted to see what else was in the river, because he always felt that the bottom of the river was more than that simple.

"Why didn't the Taoist priest just destroy him back then?"

"Maybe he didn't want to do it so badly, or the ghost was full of resentment, so he couldn't do anything about it."

Xiao Xia didn't speak, and blamed the Taoist priest who didn't do things thoroughly, otherwise they wouldn't have to worry about it today, and Li Jingming's family wouldn't be killed. And what she was worried about was that the scholar ghost was already so powerful a hundred years ago, isn't it even stronger now? Will this end the lives of her and Ruan Zhan? What Ruan Zhan considered was that when he was unable to subdue the evil spirit, he could only take one step at a time, and he had to estimate how to save his life if he really couldn't beat it.

The two fell silent for a long time, Xiao Xia asked, "When will the equipment arrive?"

"Just one or two days." Ruan Zhan said, "In order not to attract attention, I have to do it at night."

"Then what do I do?"

"Just stay in the hotel and don't make trouble."

Xiao Xia gave Ruan Zhan an unconvinced look, but did not refute. Then the two paid the bill and went back to the hotel. They were silent all the way. When they arrived at the door of the hotel, Xiao Xia suddenly asked, "Tell me, did that Miss Ye ever love a scholar?"

"What do you love! I think she only chose him because she saw that the scholar was honest and easy to fiddle with."

"No, I think she loved him. But she couldn't see her heart clearly, and the love was too short."

Ruan Zhan looked at Xiao Xia strangely, thinking what time it was, a slightly careless decision would kill several people, but she was still thinking about the love that was dispensable a hundred years ago.

woman!

At this time, a breeze in the night wind blows, as if a sigh of resentment blows Xiaoxia's hair, thanking her for a little sympathy after a hundred years.

As soon as the equipment consigned by Wanli arrived, Ruan Zhan got busy.

He first stood in the room and observed the whole river with binoculars, then took a strange tool to the river bank and went around to choose the location where he would go into the water at night, then carefully checked all the equipment, and finally stayed in the room silently Think, without saying a word, without eating dinner, until midnight.

When he finally moved, Xiao Xia breathed a sigh of relief. She made Ruan Zhan nervous and excited by the seriousness of the whole day, always feeling that something big was about to happen.

"Do you really not need my help?" She asked kindly.

"If you insist on running to the windy river bank to make trouble, I can't help it."

Xiao Xia is angry.

It's one thing to be full of justice, and it's not bad to be loyal, but she really doesn't dare to let her watch the wind on the deserted river bank in the middle of the night. But this person knew that she didn't have the guts to do so, but deliberately wanted to ridicule her, his heart was unforgivable. Xiao Xia simply ignored Ruan Zhan in a fit of anger, but she couldn't bear it for long, and when she saw Ruan Zhan cut her finger and drew strange words on several pieces of yellow paper with blood, she couldn't help asking: "Why use blood?"

"The blood curse is stronger."

"But—isn't that paper useless in the water? Or do you stick it on the shore?"

"I can use it if I say it can be used." He wrote while answering, and then considering the power of this evil spirit, he decided to write a few more sheets, so he cut another finger.

Xiao Xia was startled watching from the side, slowly came over, and said flatteringly, "Don't you hurt?"

"It hurts!" Ruan Zhan stopped and looked at Xiao Xia seriously, "Otherwise, if you cut the blood on your neck, the effect will be better."

Seeing him gnashing his teeth with the bloody knife, Xiao Xia was taken aback and quickly moved away, but then he knew that Ruan Zhan was joking. But this time she didn't mind, because knowing that he was not as unpromising and nervous as herself in this situation, she felt that the chances of winning were better, and she was quite happy.

Ruan Zhan finished writing intently, then took out a small paper box and handed it to Xiao Xia. "You take this, in case there is any danger, crush the wax on the outer layer, and you will be fine."

Today when he was silent, he felt uneasy, and he still didn't feel at ease leaving Xiaoxia alone, so he gave her the blood-wood sword that was prepared for a critical moment. The burial place of that evil spirit has been dug out, it will definitely feel something. He believes that it will come quickly, and a big fight will be inevitable, which is why he must not let Xiao Xia be there. And if it finds out where Xiaoxia is hiding, it may not be sure to attack her. At any rate, he can still try to escape when he is in danger, but if she encounters a raging evil spirit, she will only have a dead end. Not even her precious amulets could protect her from that level of resentment. And since he promised Wan Li to keep her safe, he will definitely not let her have any trouble.

I hope that his uneasiness is not due to changes in the situation between the two parties. As long as the evil spirit can't become one, he still has a good chance to fight.
