smuggler

Chapter 112
When Chu Yuan said this, he was suspicious, especially when he showed that kind of smile that was not a smile.

His voice was very low, like a dim and uncertain candle in the wind, and I suddenly felt my body fall into an abyss.

I was shocked, and quickly took a few steps back, and took out the talisman as I retreated.

I didn't look at Chu Yuan warily until I kept a few steps away.

When he saw that I looked like I was facing a big enemy, he actually smiled on his calm face from the beginning to the end: "Okay, I was just kidding with you, those two things should not be chasing here for the time being."

Just now I thought he was possessed, but I didn't expect him to be playing tricks on me!

I looked him up and down and found that there was nothing unusual about him, so I glared at him: "Don't you know that people are scary, scary to death?"

He smiled disapprovingly and didn't say much, I glanced at the back, the two things did not catch up, the panic in my heart eased, and I asked him: "What are those two things? Is it really... a ghost?"

Chu Yuan held his chin and thought for a while, his eyes flickered brightly: "There is another special thing recorded in the Book of Hundred Ghosts!"

"What?" I asked immediately.

"Ghost." Chu Yuan looked up at me, "Ghost is a different kind of thing, but it also belongs to the category of dirty things. The evil thoughts of people drowning in the water can create hallucinations. You may see it on the boat. Yes, it is the illusion created by them, they are very likely, not on board at all."

What Chu Yuan said confuses me.

From the very beginning, I saw those two things get on the boat with my own eyes, and after what happened along the way, I also saw them with my own eyes.

Including, right up to disembarking at the end.

But now Chu Yuan told me that this is an illusion created by some ghost.

Isn't this bullshit?

However, I suddenly thought of a slight detail, that is, when I was on the boat, I once noticed the two of them.

Because the trousers have been dripping, as if crawling out of the water.

At that time, I was quite curious because I didn't notice any abnormalities in them, but before I finally got off the boat, I seemed to remember that there were no water stains on the boat decks in the boat shed.

The two of them dripped all the way down the trousers, and it stands to reason that the boat shed should be wet a lot.

Is it really a so-called hallucination?

But this is too weird.

I have doubts in my heart, it is these two ghosts who died in the river, and I need to find a scapegoat, just drag us into the river and it will be over.

Why didn't you make any moves along the way.

Thinking of this, I originally wanted to ask Chu Yuan, but before I looked up, I saw that he was already staring at me, and his eyes were full of strangeness. "What’s wrong with you!"

Chu Yuan hesitated, but finally said it out, saying: "Things like ghosts can't confuse people, they... can control other things."

"What do you mean by that?" I carefully pondered what Chu Yuan meant.

"Have you not seen it yet?" Chu Yuan paused for a moment, and then explained to me: "The old man's face is haggard, and there is a dead air on his forehead. His calamity should have come, and they should be looking for that old man." .”

If the ghost creates hallucinations, it would be much better to attack that old man, especially...he is a boatman, as long as he is controlled, our lives are in our hands.

"If this is the case, I won't be so suspicious. Another possibility is what worries me the most." Chu Yuan stared at me solemnly, and said slowly: "Actually, just now, I thought of another possibility. You are that ghost!"

Hearing this, I just rolled my eyes, speechless as hell!
"Do you think you fell into hallucinations just now? Do you think I'm a fake?"

I don't want to spend more time talking with him here, besides, there are two people here, I am afraid that those two things will catch up.

Chu Yuan said that people like ghosts can die no matter where they are, but I saw that the trousers of those two things were dripping all the time on the boat.

And after my description.

Those two things should have drowned in the water, and it stands to reason that dirty things in the water cannot go ashore.

"Even if you go ashore, you won't be able to last too long. There is no need to worry. It's better to be careful about what's going on now."

Chu Yuan told me not to worry about those two things catching up. When we ran, we walked north. According to the five elements, the north belongs to fire and restrains water.

Things that die in the water cannot go north.

Hearing his analysis like this made me feel at ease.

Passing through the grove, we have arrived in front of a village at this time. This should be a small path into the village, not the entrance of the village as I thought at first.

A faint mist filled the village, making the whole village looming in the mist.

"This should be Fengyin Village."

I said to Chu Yuan, I didn't enter the village rashly, because here, I can feel that something is wrong with this place.

It is now July, and the vegetation is flourishing. Although a lot of weeds have grown in the village, it is a dead scene of sagebrush and grass yellow.

I was worried that there was something wrong with the fog in the village, and there was too much Yin Qi, so I took out the Yin-dispelling Talisman from my bag and took it with me, and then the two of us walked into the village along this path,

In order to ease the gloomy atmosphere, I inserted a topic and said with a wry smile: "I feel that old man may not come here in three days."

In fact, when I come here, I don't know the specific time required.

However, it should not be so easy to find the truth, so it must not be completed in one day. At that time, I just made a compromise in my heart and talked to the old man for three days.

However, when he encountered a corpse-embracing boat on the river, it was a question of whether the old man would dare to come back alone three days later.

"If he doesn't come, then we will have to figure out our own way, but the premise is...we are still alive."

Chu Yuan's last words made the atmosphere extremely heavy.

At this time, we had already entered the village along the path, and after entering, it seemed dead silent.

As I walked, I looked at the houses on both sides of the road, and saw that the windows of all the houses were nailed to death by wooden boards.

Most of the houses in the village are dilapidated and old. At a glance, you can tell that no one has lived in them for a long time. Moreover, these houses were built of stones and yellow mud in the last century. dead grave.

Chu Yuan walked to a relatively soft black ground and kicked away a layer of rotten soil on the surface with his feet.

There were more than a dozen black flesh worms wriggling in the soil that Chu Yuan kicked away.

"The yin qi is too heavy, and the rotten qi breeds. This place has become a paradise for these yin insects."

Seeing this scene, Chu Yuan whispered.
