The Mystic Painter of Recovery

Chapter 168 Burial
The fifth day was finally over, and everyone rested in the room for a while.

Suddenly there was a small sound in the old house.

"Crench!"

The door of the back hall did not know whether it was blown open by the wind, or pushed open by someone, making a movement.

At this slight movement, everyone opened their eyes instantly.

"The back door is open. This is a signal that we should go." Yang Jian stood up, holding a cracked spear in his hand, with a dignified expression.

"Let's go, after finishing today's work, we are almost ready to leave this haunted house." Zhao Yichen said impatiently.

He stayed in the haunted house for too long, and just now, he also received some bad news through the portrait he left in the real world.

The ghost out of control is earlier than the time of the original work.

It's not just the ghost lake, there are several large-scale supernatural events happening outside now.

Several people walked up to the red coffin and lifted it up.

Surprisingly, the red coffin was unexpectedly light, so light that it seemed that there was no corpse in the coffin.

The feeling was very different from the last time when five people could barely lift the coffin together, as if the coffin was lifted twice, but it was not the same coffin.

The red coffin has been moved before, but the last time it was moved, it was very heavy, even a bit heavier than expected.

"But the weight of this coffin is very wrong. If you don't confirm it and just carry it over and bury it like this, if something goes wrong halfway, it will be a big trouble." Li Yang said.

Yang Jian refused: "It's the sixth day, and most of the old people in this coffin have already revived the ghost. At this time, the switch is releasing a terrifying ghost. Even if I hold the coffin nails in my hand, I may not be able to deal with it. And we didn't really come here to bury this old man, our purpose was to stay in this ancient house for seven days."

"So what happened to the old man's body, whether there is any abnormality, has nothing to do with us."

"That's right. I don't want this coffin to be opened either. Who knows if the old man inside has recovered. It will be very troublesome if something happens." Zhao Yichen nodded.

"The coffin this time is not heavy. Tianyi, you and Li Yang should carry it. Yang Jian and I are responsible for opening the way, and we are responsible for breaking the rear."

"Let's go, carry this red coffin to the forest behind and bury it."

Speaking of which, Zhao Yichen and He Yuelian walked to the front, and took the lead towards the dirt road behind.

Li Yang and Zhou Tianyi carried the coffin and followed behind them, while Yang Xiaohua followed them with a red balloon.

In the end, it was Yang Jian who walked at the back with a yellow hair-cracking spear.

The sky outside was dark and oppressive, and a small road stained with yellow mud loomed in front of us, winding and winding, extending to the depths of the weird old forest.

"It will be very dangerous for us to carry this red coffin to the old forest." Yang Jian kept looking around, with a serious expression on his face.

"Let's bury the coffin as soon as possible. The later the funeral, the more dangerous the red coffin will be."

"The back door of the ancient house was pushed open just now, which is a signal for the funeral. If we spend another six hours in the ancient house, this red coffin will become a murderous coffin, which is more dangerous than the previous few days."

Looking at the dark forest in the distance, Zhao Yichen felt a little uneasy.

Although when he came to the haunted house, he left the ghost old woman and refused to let her get in the car, but he always felt that the matter would not end so easily.

It is not necessarily a coincidence that the ghost old woman came to the ghost house. Even if she was left behind and did not get in the car, she still might come.

Soon, everyone left the old house, and gradually walked into this strange old forest along the yellow mud path that had been deliberately cleared out.

As soon as I entered the old forest, I felt a gloomy and cold atmosphere coiled around. The depths of the old forest seemed to be foggy, gloomy and dim, revealing an indescribable evil nature.

"All the corpses are buried under this old forest. Those corpses are not ordinary dead corpses, they are all suspected sleeping ghosts. We have already experienced it deeply when we dug trees to find mourning clothes. I hope the mourning clothes will still be useful at this time." Yang I was a little worried.

Moving on, everyone was completely submerged in the old forest, and the location of the ancient house could no longer be seen behind them, and the sight was completely blocked by the forest.

Old Lin seemed more and more drowsy, and the surrounding trees seemed to be swaying gradually.

There was no wind, but there was a rustling sound in the woods. It sounded like someone was shaking the tree trunk on purpose, and the frequency was very regular, one after another.

At this time, the exception finally appeared.

Ahead, there was a tree lying across the yellow mud path. The tree fell to the ground as if it had been broken by the wind, blocking everyone's way.

"A tree fell?" Yang Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, then looked at the others with some doubts.

She did not participate in the funeral report on the third day, and did not know the meaning behind these trees.

Zhao Yichen walked to the side of the fallen tree and looked at the pothole left by the fallen tree.

There is a ghost buried under each of the big trees here.

"The ghost inside has come out, but nothing should happen, just be careful and move on."

Everyone ignored the old tree blocking the way, crossed it directly, and continued to walk along the yellow mud path, but the mood on the road was a little bit heavy.

This footprint is very large, and the footprints left by stepping on the yellow mud are very deep and very eye-catching.

Everyone walked here when the funeral was reported before, but at that time, no one among the crowd had such a big foot, nor did they have such a heavy weight, and they could leave such deep footprints
So this footprint is not one of them, but someone who doesn't exist.

Even Zhao Yichen had some doubts about who the owner of this footprint was. It was rare even for a ghost to leave such a large footprint.

"It's really worrying, how many ghosts are there in this place, you can see the footprints left by the ghosts when you walk on the road." Yang Xiaohua couldn't help complaining.

After walking forward for a while, the huge footprints disappeared.

It seems that the ghost walked on the yellow mud road for a while and then entered the old forest, and did not go all the way along this road, because the last footprint was on the edge of the yellow mud road, which proved that the ghost was Wander away.

This is good news, at least he didn't walk with Li Gui on the way to carry the coffin.

Although it is not certain whether the ghost is a very scary ghost, but the distinctive footprints will always make people speculate that the ghost that may exist is a little scary.

Go further.

The surrounding environment is getting darker and the light is getting worse. Only the yellow mud road under my feet seems to have some light, and the rest of the place is dark. I can't even see the old trees nearby. I can only see a black one. contour.

Yet at this time.

Li Yang and Zhou Tianyi, who were carrying the coffin, staggered suddenly, lost their footing, and almost fell down.

"Li Yang, what's going on, why did you stop suddenly?" Yang Jian, who was walking behind Duanhou, couldn't help asking when he saw this scene.

"Captain, I felt the coffin shake just now. It seems that the old man inside has woken up."

"Zhou Tianyi, you should have noticed it too, right?" In the darkness, Li Yang said solemnly.

Zhou Tianyi said: "I did feel the vibration coming from the coffin just now, and I almost fell because of it."

"I feel that the old man in the coffin is probably awake. Even if he is not awake, it is almost the same. We must bury him as soon as possible, otherwise the red coffin may not be able to hold it down."

"In this case, we have to speed up a little bit." Hearing what they said, Zhao Yichen quickened his pace and walked forward.

Everyone followed behind Zhao Yichen, quickened their pace, and began to feel a little anxious for no reason.

The red coffin could move forward slowly without any abnormality before, but now there is movement in the coffin, which shows that the time for burial is getting closer and closer.

However, although the pace has accelerated, the road ahead seems to have no end.

I kept walking along this yellow mud road, as if I couldn't finish it, I couldn't see the end of this road, and the familiar cemeteries didn't appear.

No matter how you move forward, no matter how you turn around, there is always a way ahead.

"We can't be lost, right? I felt something was wrong before, why haven't we reached it after walking for so long?" Yang Xiaohua's voice was trembling, and the darkness around her was getting deeper and deeper.

Everyone carrying the red coffin seemed to have entered an incomprehensible strange place, completely lost.

"No, it can't be getting lost, maybe it's some kind of supernatural phenomenon." Zhao Yichen shook his head, and he couldn't see the situation clearly.

Ghost painters have the ability to see through ghosts, but now they are not in ghosts.

"Go ahead and take a look." Yang Jian also couldn't understand.

Moving on, something horrifying happened.

A pair of legs wearing old cloth shoes appeared in the light, and the flashlight in his hand moved up slightly. It was a wrinkled, lifeless old woman carrying a vegetable basket.

The old woman stood motionless on the yellow mud road, blocking the way for everyone to advance.

'It's the ghostly old lady at No. 301 in Dachuan City, she still came. Zhao Yichen narrowed his eyes slightly, and couldn't help clenching He Yuelian's hand.

If it is said, among the ghosts wandering outside the country now, which one can make him afraid and feel dangerous.

Then this ghost old woman is ranked second, and absolutely no other ghost dares to rank first.

"She, didn't she get on the bus? How did she appear here? What should I do next?"

Yang Xiaohua panicked at this moment, she looked at Zhao Yichen and Yang Jian in horror, not daring to take another step forward.

"Sure enough, this ghost thing came to the old house after all. The last time I delivered the letter, I felt that she had some connection with this place. I didn't let her get in the car last time."

"I didn't expect that she would still appear here in the past few days. There is only one road here. If we don't want to deal with it, we will have no way to carry this coffin to bury it."

Yang Jian's face was ugly, and he looked at the old ghost woman with fear in his eyes.

Zhao Yichen said: "This ghost must be dealt with, and we can't stay here for too long, otherwise, if the coffin is not buried in time, something bad will happen."

"Otherwise, what we have to face is probably not just this ghost blocking the way."

"Yang Jian, you take them away first, this ghost has the ability to go from memory to reality."

"They are too strong to intervene in the affairs here. Leaving them here may cause this old thing to invade again."

Yang Jian shook his head when he heard the words, he said without any hesitation.

"Although I also want to take them away directly, but I can't, this old thing is blocking the way ahead, and this place is shrouded in some kind of supernatural phenomenon, and I can't leave at all."

Zhao Yichen said: "I will take this old thing away, and I will leave the burial to you."

After finishing speaking, he took He Yuelian's hand and took off the beret on his head.

The ghost derived from the red hijab formed a red hat on his body.

The ability of this ghost old woman is related to memory, although the ability displayed so far is only to invade reality from the past and replace the invaded person.

But for ghosts related to memory, it is normal for them to have consciousness attacks.

Even the ghost paintings controlled by Zhao Yichen also have conscious attacks, but they don't have the defensive ability of consciousness.

Looking at the motionless old lady, she seemed to have been dead for a long time, but everyone dared not be careless.

At this moment, Zhao Yichen led He Yuelian towards the woods on the side of the yellow mud road.

At the same time, one of his hands was raised slightly to beckon ghosts.

Recruiting ghosts is a very special supernatural phenomenon. For ghosts, this is not an attack, so ghosts will not resist.

Basically, the ability to summon ghosts can take effect on most ghosts.

Only a small number of ghosts who have wisdom, can think, and evade their own laws of killing can resist this kind of supernatural power.

With the supernatural activation of the ghost summoning, a long time passed.

Originally, the old ghost woman who was motionless on the yellow mud path and seemed to have died suddenly looked in Zhao Yichen's direction.

At this time, Zhao Yichen saw the situation of the ghost old woman.

Her figure seemed a little illusory, and it seemed that she hadn't completely invaded reality from memory.

'Wonder where is the target of her invasion?This kind of illusory state is the most incomprehensible, and it is impossible to attack her at all. '

"If it weren't for the special spirit of the ghost, not the attack, and the summoning of the ghost, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to influence the ghost old woman." '

'Even so, it took me a long time to successfully affect the opponent with the ability to summon ghosts. '

Zhao Yichen's eyes were a little solemn, every time this ghost old woman invaded a person, she would come out of her memory again.

Now it is no longer possible to use the same method as last time, with the ability to restart, let the other party successfully go from memory to reality and then deal with her.

Because that would only make one more ghost old woman appear here.

From the ability of memory invasion to reality, it seems that each memory can only choose one target, and once it attacks other targets, it will pull away the self in other periods.

"This ghost cannot be attacked. It seems that we can only choose to keep her here so that she will not disturb other people."

Zhao Yichen looked helplessly at He Yuelian beside him.

Although he was no longer worried about being killed by this ghost old woman, he also couldn't do anything to her.

It's not that he doesn't have the strength to deal with the opponent, but that the opponent's ability is a bit too incomprehensible and weird.

In Zhao Yichen's perception, the only person who can deal with this ghost is Shen Lin, who lives in memory.

Even if Li Leping controls the Forgotten Ghost, it has no effect on this ghost, it can only prevent it from being killed.

Of course, there may be another way to deal with this ghost.

That is to go to Room 301 in Dachuan City to find the main body of the ghost old lady. Detaining the main body is the only way.

But when you go there, the first thing you have to solve is how to survive the invasion of countless ghost old women.

Only then can you choose to imprison the body.

Time passed slowly, and the spirit of summoning ghosts was activated. Zhao Yichen kept the ghost old lady not far away from him.

Avoid being accidentally injured by the ghost old woman's unreasonable ability to turn the surrounding environment into gray and white.

At the same time, he didn't let the ghost old woman stay away from him, so as to prevent her from disturbing other people's burial of Zhang Dong's body.

This originally tense link seemed less terrifying at this time.

This incomprehensible ability that couldn't be attacked was successfully drawn by the ability to summon ghosts. Although the process was a bit slow, in the end it succeeded in recruiting the ghost old woman without any danger.

After two and a half hours, Zhao Yichen finally felt Zhou Tianyi's call.

"It seems that the task of burial is finally completed, and we can go back tomorrow."

Zhao Yichen breathed a sigh of relief, and let go of the hand that had been waving.

The spirit that summoned the ghost disappeared, and the ghost old woman stood in place again and lost her action.

She now seems to have lost the target of the attack.

Zhao Yichen and He Yuelian were protected by red wedding dresses, just like a ghost that didn't fit her attack target at all.

Of course, it does not mean that ghosts will not be attacked by ghosts.

Some ghosts will attack ghosts first.

Such as ghosts, starving ghosts.

There are no restrictions on the puzzle surface of these two ghosts, so any ghost will be attacked by them, even without triggering the law of killing.

There is also Yang Jian's ghost image, a ghost with a relatively large puzzle range, and it is also very likely to attack other ghosts.

Pulling He Yuelian back for a distance, seeing that the ghost old lady didn't respond, the two left here.

On the way back, although the surrounding environment was weird, the road was peaceful, there was no danger, and there were no more ghosts.

It seems that after burying Zhangdong, everything is over.

The ancient house has lost some kind of supernatural power, it is no longer eerie and weird, there are no ghosts wandering around, and no incomprehensible supernatural phenomena occur.

Even this old forest has lost some kind of spirituality, and the previously impenetrable darkness has disappeared.
