I made myself the protagonist

Chapter 148 Bewitched
"As soon as the two of you entered the room, I felt that there was a penetrating yin in you. But you are the only one, and Su Li is fine."

Zhao Sicheng looked at Ling Yun and frowned, "That thing is probably aimed at you. According to your description, she should be a dead ghost."

"The soul of the water ghost can't enter the reincarnation. It is bred by the yin energy of the lake, and its resentment is increasing day by day. Now it creates this fog, it is nothing more than trying to get ashore with the water vapor, and it is a red-clothed ghost. This guy is better than the one we met before. Sisters are even stronger. If I guessed correctly, it must be an A-level curse."

Zhao Sicheng's words made everyone's hearts tense, and Ling Yun's face was even more ugly.

"Why is it Brother Ling..." Tang Yao was puzzled.

"Now that I think about it, there is indeed a river on the way to the mountain in the north." Su Li said, "Perhaps Ling Yun got into trouble with this thing near there."

"No matter what, now that it has chosen Ling Yun, I'm afraid it won't let it go until it kills the other party."

Zhao Sicheng glanced at the time, it is now [-]:[-] in the morning, less than three hours before dawn.

Shen Tinglan looked solemn: "But the most urgent thing is to find a way to make Lingyun last until the end of this level. Since it has already marked Lingyun, running away is useless. In addition, the fog outside is too thick and the visibility is low. It's better to stay where you are. "

"Why don't we guard Big Brother Ling first, and then go up the mountain to think of a way after dawn tomorrow morning?" Tang Yao suggested.

"Sorry everyone, I have caused you trouble." Ling Yun has long been used to the fact that he will be the first to be selected.It's just that he didn't expect that he would get into such a troublesome thing this time.

Unlike the wraiths encountered before, the water ghost bride did not initiate an attack after locking on to the target.

Zhao Sicheng speculated that because it is not near the water source, this ghost can only move with the help of water mist, and will induce it in a bewitching way.

"As long as we guard Lingyun well and don't let him out of this room. I don't believe this water ghost has other means to kill people." Zhao Sicheng said.

Although the other companions expressed their willingness to accompany Ling Yun through the difficulties, considering the powerful ghosts, in order not to hurt everyone, Ling Yun offered to stay in the house alone and let the others guard the room outside.

"Ghosts are the best at deceiving people, and they might even create illusions. We have suffered similar losses before. Since its target is only me, it's better for you to stay away."

Seeing that Shen Tinglan and others disagreed, Ling Yun quickly added: "If everyone is recruited, there is really no way out."

Under Ling Yun's repeated insistence, the others finally chose to agree.

"This is a guardian spell drawn with my blood. It can resist the invasion of evil spirits, so it should be able to help you." Zhao Sicheng generously took out the talisman that he carried with him, and handed it to Ling Yun.

Su Li and Tang Yao found some salt from the kitchen, and sprinkled it around the doors, windows and corners, which can also play a role in warding off evil spirits.

As if that wasn't enough, after finishing the preparations, Zhao Sicheng gritted his teeth and took out a dagger from his arms, cut open his palm, and dripped blood on the ground.

The blood gradually condensed and took shape, and in everyone's sight, a headless ghost surrounded by black mist, ragged, and covered with mud and blood all over his body appeared.

Headless ghosts are the incarnation of people with incomplete bodies after death.It doesn't harm anyone, and the only thing it wants is for people to help it get back its missing body parts.

"Fortunately, there is a cemetery on the mountainside. It is not difficult to summon a few ghosts. This headless ghost has been dead for nearly a hundred years, and it is already dressed in black. Although it is not as red as it is, it is still quite capable. "

"Then ask it, do you know what happened in this village?" Lin Yuanqi asked.

Zhao Sicheng shook his head: "The headless ghost keeps a secret about this. Do you think I didn't ask? It just told me that if you want to investigate the affairs of the village, you can go to the ancestral hall ten miles to the east."

"Ancestral hall?"

Shen Tinglan thought for a while, the team searched the village during the day, and then went straight to the deep mountains in the north, and did not go to the east to investigate.

After secretly remembering this clue, he asked the headless ghost: "Then do you know what happened to the water ghost that was eyeing my companion?"

Hearing the words, the headless ghost quickly wrote a word on the ground: 【禜】(yíng)

"What the hell, does anyone recognize this word?" Zhao Sicheng squinted his eyes and scratched his head frantically.

Su Li stepped forward to identify it, and then said: "The god of mountains and rivers is the disaster of floods, droughts, and pestilence, so I want to see it. This is a kind of sacrifice to the disasters of floods and droughts in ancient times."

"That is to say, the water ghost is a sacrifice?" Lin Yuanqi asked.

"Probably so. Its strength is far greater than that of the headless ghost. Before it died, it suffered inhuman torture. Its soul has been unable to reincarnate for a hundred years, and its resentment will not dissipate." Zhao Sicheng waved his hand, signaling the headless ghost to stay outside the window. Don't let any evil things near Lingyun's room.

After the matter is completed, I and my companions will go to the dense forest in the back mountain to help retrieve its lost head.

"Fatty..." Ling Yun didn't expect Zhao Sicheng to do this for himself, and immediately didn't know what to say to thank him.

"Let's live through tomorrow first." Zhao Sicheng squeezed Ling Yun's shoulders heavily, and said in a low voice, "This is an A-level curse spirit. The mobs in the morning were so difficult to deal with. You are the only one now. Be sure to deal with it." be careful."

"Thank you."

Ling Yun sent everyone outside the door, and said solemnly: "Unless I open the door myself. Otherwise, from now until seven o'clock tomorrow morning, no matter what movement comes from the room or what I say, everyone will Don’t pay attention to it. If you are a little careless... I’m afraid everyone will suffer because of it!”

After Ling Yun finished speaking, he closed the door.

In the living room, Shen Tinglan lit a fire, Zhao Sicheng, Lin Yuanqi and Su Li inspected the room carefully, and also sprinkled salt in every corner of the room.

Ren Yao opened the door a crack and confirmed the scene outside.The fog still hasn't dissipated, and I haven't sensed anything unusual.There was a vast expanse of whiteness outside the yard, and the silence was filled with a disturbing and weird atmosphere.

After hearing the sound of the lock coming from the room, Tang Yao squeezed her hands tightly and bit her lower lip.

She knew that she couldn't help Ling Yun at all right now, and the only thing she could do was to wait.

Shen Tinglan saw that Tang Yao was fidgeting and wandering outside the bedroom door all the time, so she couldn't help but stepped forward to comfort her and said, "Believe in Ling Yun, he has a tenacious heart, and he will definitely be able to overcome difficulties."

"Yes, Sister Tang Yao, come here and stay with everyone first, it won't help you to stand there all the time." Lin Yuanqi sat by the fire and waved to her.

Tang Yao glanced at Shen Tinglan, who nodded to herself.The two of them had just left the door, and in the next second, a burst of noise came from outside the yard without warning.

coming!

The moment they heard the movement, everyone in the room hardly dared to breathe.

The sound sounded like footsteps, and within a few seconds, they came to the door.

Immediately afterwards—there was a knocking sound outside the gate. It was not the wind, but someone knocking on the door gently with their hands.

Ren Yao suddenly raised his head. For some reason, he felt a strong curiosity, wanting to see what was outside.

By chance, he took a step forward and stretched out his hand towards the door...
