Grudge Breaker

Chapter 184 Po Xi returns (Part )
-
Ye Wujiu, who was guarding in front of the arched mountain wall, vaguely felt that something was wrong. The moss and ferns growing on the wall seemed to be more lively than in the daytime, indicating that after midnight, it entered the eighth day after the ghost husband usually commits crimes. , this place is more alive.

He placed his palms on the mountain wall and closed his eyes to feel it carefully. He felt that the arched mountain wall was like the heart of a large creature that had been silent for a long time and was reviving bit by bit.

The place where the beating and tremors were the strongest was inside the half-moon-shaped water channel. He looked into the canal. Perhaps it was an illusion, the water surface seemed to be higher - no, it was not an illusion.

Even the heavy stone wall inside the canal was trembling slightly, as if there was some huge energy being filled from the bottom up.

Everything is changing.

This place is located in the "Gen" position of the ghost city. In the Bagua, the number of the Gen hexagram is seven, which means the end and the beginning. It itself represents the cycle of life and death. However, Gen is a "Death Gate" among the Qimen, but after the change of time, it becomes "vital" - Ye Wujiu made some calculations and found that the "Duty Envoy Gate" here has become a "Life Gate", which coincides again. The second symbol of the cycle of life and death.

I'm afraid there's something out there that wants to take advantage of the situation and bring it back to life.
.
"Hurry and invite the adults and Brother Wei!" Ye Wujiu hurriedly gave orders to the people around him.

After speaking, he looked around and wondered where Ding Heran had gone. How come he hadn't returned after going on routine inspections for so long?

"Have you met Commander Ding?"

The grudge-breaker who was randomly stopped by Ye Wujiu shook his head blankly, and then slapped his head, "Look at my memory, I seem to have seen Commander Ding at the entrance of the ghost market half a year ago, it should be him! He went after an old man with a hunchback. ”

A hunchbacked old man?

I'm afraid he also discovered something unusual, Ye Wujiu thought to himself, but there was no way he could leave here, so he ordered a group of mobile personnel to look for Ding Heran and see if he needed support. The rest of the remaining mobile personnel gathered in the seventh hole.

Just as they were talking, many fine and dense bubbles had already appeared in the stagnant water channel, and they were rising upwards.
.
The hunchbacked old man returned home and stood facing the wall with his hands down, his back bent and motionless.

Ding Heran poked through the window paper and looked at him for a while. The more he looked at him, the weirder he felt, so he gently pulled out the dagger suitable for close combat from his waist, suddenly used Qinggong to jump in, and stabbed the old man!

At the moment when the dagger almost touched the material of the old man's back, Ding Heran realized that he had no intention of evading, and Ding Heran turned around and got out of the way with a kite.

Only then did he see clearly that the old man's expression was dull, drooling, and his eyes were staring at the wall nearby, like a puppet on strings - this appearance reminded him of Qingyun being possessed by puppet water in Sikong Mansion before. The way it looked at that time, it seemed that... it was probably caused by a magpie!

The old man must have had contact with her!
Ding Heran quickly took out the clear water he carried with him and gave it to the old man to drink. This was a potion he had prepared before departure to help people quickly regain consciousness in case of miasma or drug addiction. He did not expect it to come in handy so quickly.

In just one cup of tea, the old man coughed a few times and took a deep breath, apparently regaining his consciousness. Ding Heran stepped forward and helped him find a chair to sit down on.

"I won't hurt you, don't be afraid."

Even though he said this, the old man who suddenly woke up could not hide the fear in his eyes.

"You, what do you want to do? I really don't have much money..." The old man just thought he had encountered a robber.

Ding Heran thought for a while, took out some broken silver from his pocket and put it into the old man's hand. The old man looked at the money more puzzled and became inexplicably quiet.

"Old man, how did you get drugged, but what kind of weirdo did you meet?"

The old man's face was full of astonishment. He wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it - wasn't it strange enough that this man suddenly appeared in front of him and gave him money?

However, he still thought about it seriously according to Ding Heran's words, but was surprised to find that his memory in the past few days was completely blank. He couldn't remember who he had met, whether he had a stall, whether the business was good or not - could he really Did you encounter any weird things?

"But all the recent memories are gone?"

Looking at the old man's appearance, Ding Heran guessed it. Unexpectedly, this magpie had such a good "anti-reconnaissance awareness" that he actually left two back-ups. Not only did he use puppet potion, but he also used other potions to remember the old man. Erase.

When he came out of the old man's house, he met the grudge-breaker who came for reinforcements. Ding Heran briefly explained a few words, and found out if there was anything unusual about the old man's recent whereabouts through side interviews. At the same time, it also showed that magpies can take on the appearance of anyone. Hidden in the ghost market, you need to be more careful to identify when patrolling.
.
By the time Ding Heran returned to Qidong, Mo Tingfeng and Song Weichen had also arrived. Zhuang Yuheng went to meet Ruan Mianmian as planned, but did not follow.

Song Weichen looked a little wilted. She was in poor health and was picked up from her sleep. Mo Tingfeng was able to fall asleep again while carrying her on his back.

At this moment, she was leaning against the mountain wall with her arms folded, watching Mo Tingfeng adjust the angle of the Bagua Mirror to face the water channel and the seven-hole Tai Chi window. The Tai Chi window was also opened and closed inside and outside, forming a yin and yang pattern. .

Is it dazzled? Song Weichen rubbed her eyes. She saw a silvery thread, not much thicker than spider silk, refracted from the water channel through the Bagua mirror to the Tai Chi window, and finally fell into the seven holes. "What is this?" she asked Mo Tingfeng, pointing to the "line".

"What did you see?" Mo Tingfeng was a little nervous. Perhaps because he was pure yang and immune to yin and evil, he didn't see anything.

"There is a very thin line shining here, leading to the Seventh Hole."

Song Weichen pointed and gestured, but this time she was cautious and did not touch the light with her hands.

Mo Tingfeng quickly ordered people to check whether there was any abnormality inside the seven holes, and reported that everything was normal.

"Weiwei, don't touch the line. Take a look at Qidong. Is there anything unusual? Heran, protect her."

Song Weichen peered in and saw that the end of the light was pointing to the position where he saw the man with the Chinese character face, but there was nothing at the moment.

She described it truthfully. Mo Tingfeng pondered for a moment and ordered Ding Heran to continue guarding Song Weichen. Then he asked a grudge-breaker to stand in his place and hold the Bagua mirror in the same posture. He then called Ye Wujiu to join him and raised his hand. He leaned into the canal by candlelight - since the light Song Weichen saw started from the canal and ended at the Seventh Hole Tai Chi Point, there must be something interesting in the canal at this moment.

The two of them checked the mountain wall in the canal one on the left and the other on the right as they walked in. The last time they entered, the water was only knee-deep. This time, when they entered again, the water was already up to their waists.

The mountain wall as thick as a city wall a few steps away was still there, but Mo Tingfeng clearly felt something was wrong, not just because he was angry and the candle in his hand was extremely bright, but... but...

The mark he had scratched with his dagger when he came in last time has now risen above his head! The position changed by a full twenty centimeters, which was definitely not an illusion.

It shows that the mountain wall is slowly rising upwards.

This is definitely not something that can be done by manpower. It must be the pure power of the sun, moon, tides and natural forces to have its power. The scene here corresponds to the phenomenon of Qimen Dunjia's "Death Gate" turning into a "Life Gate".

If all this is not a coincidence, but Grandma Huang really has the ability to observe the world and has extremely clear goals from choosing the location of the ghost market to forming the soul-locking formation, she will be a very difficult opponent.
.
"Ting Feng, have you discovered anything?"

Song Weichen's voice sounded outside the canal. The little girl was worried and curious when they didn't go out for a long time. Seeing that the "light" coming out of the canal was getting thicker and thicker, she couldn't help but come over and poke her head around.

The sound of "Ting Feng" made his heart soften as much as possible, and he responded repeatedly, wishing he could return to her immediately.

"Weiwei, don't get too close. It's not necessarily safe here."

While Mo Tingfeng reminded her tightly, he took off the sword from his waist and probed the stone wall. Sure enough, the place where the original tight seal had been sealed had risen by nearly thirty centimeters. It was estimated that it would be completely opened in less than two hours. Based on this inference, The sampan that Song Weichen saw that day must be behind this stone wall. There is no doubt that there is running water and an exit here.

But An Zhuang and the Grudge Breaker who came to explore the cave before were right. At that time, the Dead Gate was guarded, and there was naturally a closed and depressed atmosphere.

After getting out of the ditch, Song Weichen handed him a brocade handkerchief to wipe his hands, and Mo Tingfeng couldn't help but put her in his arms.

"Are you sleepy?"

"Boss, you are leading the way. How dare I, an employee, complain about being tired or sleepy? I'm not tired or sleepy."

Song Weichen broke out of his arms and pointed at the "light", "I'm telling you that this one has become thicker. It used to be as thick as spider silk, but now it's like a hemp rope, and its shape is like a chain."

Following Song Weichen's fingers, Mo Tingfeng looked at the "line" that he could actually see nothing about, and had more inferences in his mind -

"It is very possible that this light is indeed a chain, and it is the chaos of the illusion that is locked."
.
Under Mo Tingfeng's frequent and detailed explanations, Song Weichen finally understood this time——

"Book of Rites: Jiao Te Sheng" contains a description of the direction of the soul, "The soul returns to heaven, and the body returns to earth."

This position is in the Gen Palace, and the five elements belong to earth. At this time, according to Qimen Dunjia, the "Shishi Gate" is the "Kun Palace Death Gate". The five elements also belong to earth, and the two elements are blessed by earth. The earth energy is extremely heavy - in this kind of situation Under such circumstances, those trapped here by the Seven Evils Soul Locking Array will definitely not be the light souls who returned to heaven, but must be the heavy souls who returned to the earth.

This also corresponds to the appearance of chaos and soul that is causing trouble in the illusion.

And now that life and death are from the same sect, the anger is wide open, and I am afraid that the chaotic soul is about to appear!
