Seeing Gu Wang, the little orange-headed boy trotted over and said, "Brother, you're here to play too? We're here to shoot a video. We're not going to disturb you, are we?"
Gu Wang observed him calmly, "I'm the owner of this land. I'm here to inspect it. You can take as many photos as you want."
The little orange-head chuckled, "What a coincidence, thank you, buddy."
The two exchanged names in a friendly manner. The little orange-headed guy was called Xu Xiaoming. He was a video blogger with more than 100,000 followers, specializing in outdoor adventures.
Xu Xiaoming sent a voice message, and soon a jeep drove over.
Two people got out of the car, a man and a woman. The man looked like a driver, and the woman looked very quiet and shy. She was a video director and also Xu Xiaoming's girlfriend. Her name was Lin Jing.
As the two of them walked into the amusement park together, Gu Wang felt two extremely subtle warm currents, and the restless negative energy that had been stirring was suppressed a little.
He raised his hand and touched his earlobe. Could this land be related to the Yin Qi in him? Every time someone came in, his Yin Qi was suppressed a little bit?
No wonder the master said this was his turning point, so this is how it is!
Although according to the situation just now, in order to completely suppress the negative energy in his body, the number of people needed must be at least tens of thousands, but at least there is hope. Who wants to die when they can live!
Gu Wang was excited and looked at Xu Xiaoming and the other two again, wishing they could split into six immediately.
The driver helped to move the equipment down and then went back to the car to catch up on some sleep.
Xu Xiaoming and his girlfriend quickly set up the camera and started filming.
Gu Wang stood aside and heard the little fat man say mysteriously to the camera: "Dear viewers, do you know where I am now? This is Yaoguang City's most famous haunted place, an abandoned amusement park in the northern suburbs of Yaoguang City. Today, I will boldly take you to explore the amusement park at night and capture the female ghost alive!"
Gu Wang's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but look up at the sky. The sun was hanging brightly in the sky. A night visit?
Seeing his expression, Xu Xiaoming said embarrassedly, "I just didn't dare to come at night! But don't worry, my videos are not post-processed. I won't lie!"
Gu Wang nodded and let him do as he pleased.
The filming was in progress when Lin Jing suddenly tripped and fell flat on his face.
The girl's face immediately turned red after losing such a big man. She got up and before she could say anything, she took half a step forward and fell down again with a thud.
Xu Xiaoming was startled. He pulled her up and asked repeatedly, "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
Lin Jing blushed and waved her hands, "No, it's okay. I might have tripped over some grass roots. I'll go back to the car and rest for a while."
Although Xu Xiaoming seems timid, he really loves his girlfriend. Just like Leo helping Karl Lagerfeld, he carefully helped Lin Jing walk towards the car.
Before she had taken a few steps, Lin Jing lunged forward and slammed her whole body to the ground. The force was so great that it felt like the girl's entire face was about to be flattened.
Xu Xiaoming was completely shocked. "W-W-What's going on? Are you wearing the right shoes?"
Lin Jing struggled to get up, but she felt her legs were powerless. A cold air rushed up her legs. She was so frightened that her face turned pale. "My, my legs..."
Gu Wang had originally avoided looking over there, fearing that the girl might be embarrassed. However, when he saw something unusual happening, he turned around and glanced at her, his expression becoming serious.
The scorching sun was still hanging in the sky. Gu Wang raised his hand and opened his eyes.
Lin Jing was still struggling on the ground, and in Gu Wang's eyes, her calves were wrapped in black air, transformed into cylindrical objects like snake tails, with obvious scales on them. As she struggled, the tip of the snake's tail twitched on the ground again and again, as if it were alive.
Gu Wang's expression froze. He quickly walked over and said, "Are there any extra clothes? Bring them over and wrap her legs."
Xu Xiaoming, who was at a loss, immediately ran back to the car, took out a down jacket and wrapped himself up.
Gu Wang made a finger gesture and tapped her leg, "If the evil spirits don't grow, the Yang Qi won't be strong! Disperse!"
Lin Jing's complexion immediately improved a lot. She lay on the ground wrapped in her down jacket, but she said that her legs still couldn't move.
Gu Wang quickly asked, "Where did you go today? Did you encounter anything strange?"
"Where did we go? We didn't go anywhere..." Xu Xiaoming said in a panic, "We came straight here from home to shoot, and on the way..."
At this time, Lin Jing, who felt better, said weakly: "We also went to Beiyuan Mountain behind the amusement park and looked at the foot of the mountain. We even found a piece of cloth."
Gu Wang: "What kind of cloth? Bring it here so I can see it."
Xu Xiaoming ran back to the car to get the cloth, panting with exhaustion.
The so-called cloth felt cold to the touch, with tiny scales on it, and black and red patterns on the blue-gray background. For some reason, just looking at it made one feel cold.
Gu Wang was a little speechless and said, "You call this cloth?"
The little fat boy looked innocent and confused. "What? Is this tree bark?"
Gu Wang: "This is obviously a piece of snake skin! Even if you don't know the patterns of snakes, you wouldn't mistake these scales for a piece of cloth, right?"
The little fat man said embarrassedly: "I just heard that there is a general's tomb in Beiyuan Mountain. I thought this was a cultural relic from the tomb. I thought those scales were inlaid gold pieces..."
When Lin Jing, who was lying on the ground, heard this, she started to bang her head against the ground.
Gu Wang expressed his understanding. With such an idiot boyfriend, the girl was already very strong for not crying.
Xu Xiaoming reacted, "How big a snake could that be? It couldn't be a spirit, could it? Did we offend it?"
Gu Wang shook his head. "I don't know yet. Carry your girlfriend on your back and let's go to the place where you picked up the snake skin."
The three of them woke up the driver and drove to Beiyuan Mountain.
Beiyuan Mountain is very close to the amusement park, only a three-minute drive away. At the foot of the mountain is the Fu Yu Provincial Road, so transportation is quite convenient.
Xu Xiaoming brought a few people to their destination.
Gu Wang looked around and realized he was at the foot of Beiyuan Mountain, very close to the provincial road. He could hear whistles from the road. Even if there was a snake demon, how could it appear so close to the crowd?
Xu Xiaoming carefully put Lin Jing down and pointed at a thigh-thick hole at his feet. He said, "It's right here. I saw a colorful thing. I pulled it and the snake skin came out."
Gu Wang squatted down and picked up the dirt at the hole with two fingers. A barely detectable wisp of black smoke dissipated with the wind. He took out the engineer shovel he had brought with him and started digging.
Xu Xiaoming was startled. "So rough? Will it disturb it?"
Gu Wang said: "If my guess is correct, the snake demon is already dead."
Xu Xiaoming breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll do it, I'll do it, Boss, you just sit and watch." He now also saw Gu Wang's ability, even calling the boss.
Including the driver, three people took turns digging and the hole was dug in less than two hours.
Inside was the skeleton of a surprisingly large snake.
The skull alone was larger than two people's heads, and its tail extended to an unknown depth underground. Two tender little horns emerged from the skull, but unfortunately they were only half grown and the body was already dead.
Xu Xiaoming and the driver were both so frightened that they broke out in cold sweats. The driver, after all, was older, and said, "I've heard that snakes can transform into dragons. If we touch its remains, it won't let us go, right?"
Gu Wang sighed, "Don't worry. Spirits don't reincarnate. It's been dead for so long, its spirit has long since dissipated. Only a bit of obsession remains, transformed into Yin energy, attached to that piece of snake skin. It just happened that you picked it up."
After he finished speaking, he carefully arranged the snake bones, sat down in meditation on the spot, and recited the "Infinite Salvation Sutra" to liberate the souls of the dead.
In the wilderness, the dug pit, the huge white bones, and the howling north wind looked like a scene from a horror movie.
But as the long and lingering chanting of scriptures spread, and the person chanting had a solemn expression and a clear voice, when I calmed down and listened to a few words, I didn't feel scared anymore.
"On the day of the eighth festival, recite this sutra... When merit and virtue are fulfilled, one will ascend to the Pure Land." The last sentence of the sutra was scattered by the wind. Gu Wang opened his eyes and sighed softly, "Please rest in peace."
Xu Xiaoming and the others didn't dare to breathe. In the silence, they heard a click, and the snake demon's jaw loosened. A purple bead fell out of its mouth and rolled to Gu Wang's feet.
Gu Wang picked it up and thought for a moment, then bowed solemnly to the snake bone and said, "Thank you, senior."
The three of them worked together to bury the snake bones and build a new grave. After the salvation, the snake demon has been liberated and will never hurt anyone again.
Xu Xiaoming's forehead was covered in sweat, and his orange hair was wet, sticking to his head like a piece of orange peel. "Boss, is this okay?"
Gu Wang said: "Your girlfriend's problem has not been resolved yet."
Lin Jing leaned against a large rock nearby. As the snake demon was liberated, she felt much better. The cold feeling was gone, but her legs were still unable to move.
Gu Wang carefully looked at the black energy on her body and asked, "Give me the eight characters."
Xu Xiaoming quickly reported his girlfriend's birth date.
Gu Wang calculated for a moment, "No wonder, you were born on a Yin month, Yin day, Yin hour? How dare you mess around with this horoscope? Didn't your family tell you?"
Lin Jing was silent for a moment, "My grandma said that I was born with a weak horoscope, and I thought it was just superstition."
Gu Wang: "Some of the old man's words still need to be listened to."
He turned to explain to Xu Xiaoming, "Your girlfriend is entangled in the Yin Qi left by the snake demon. Originally, the snake demon was saved, and the Yin Qi should have dissipated on its own. However, your girlfriend spoke on a Yin month, Yin day, and Yin hour. Her birth chart is special, so the Yin Qi has penetrated deep into her bones and cannot be pulled out by force..."
Xu Xiaoming became nervous. "Then what should we do? Do we need to perform some rituals or something? Boss, do you know how to do it? I'll pay you, any amount is fine!"
Gu Wang raised his hand to stop him. "If you want to perform a ritual, you have to find a Taoist temple or a Buddhist temple. I can't do it alone. But there's no need to go through so much trouble now."
He pulled out a gray bead and said, "This is a ghost bead. It can absorb the surrounding negative energy. String it onto a string and carry it close to your body for eighty-one days."
Xu Xiaoming and Lin Jing were both overjoyed. They took the beads and expressed their gratitude repeatedly.
Lin Jing felt it even more clearly. She held the bead in her hand and felt the cold air in her body flowing into the bead through her palm.
After a while, she regained feeling in her legs and stood up tremblingly!
With such obvious results, what else is there to say? Xu Xiaoming expressed his gratitude to Gu Wang again.
Gu Wang was about to speak when he felt a strange energy, and at the same time two rays of light lit up.
One was the snake bead he had just obtained, and the other was actually the snake skin that Xu Xiaoming was holding in his arms.
Xu Xiaoming was startled, and when he came to his senses, he quickly stuffed the snake skin into Gu Wang's hands and repeatedly asked him to help deal with it.
Gu Wang held the snake skin and snake beads thoughtfully, "Then I'll take them."
After this incident, the few of them could no longer shoot the video, and they didn’t dare to stay in the wild, so they drove back immediately.
Not long after they left, a small black snake swam over, raised its upper body, looked at the newly built grave suspiciously, sniffed it, and then followed a certain direction.
Upon learning that Gu Wang didn't have a car, Xu Xiaoming enthusiastically invited him to go with him and even begged for his contact information.
After entering the city, Gu Wang did not look for a place to live, but immediately went to buy furniture and daily necessities.
Nowadays, furniture stores all provide door-to-door delivery services. Gu Wang directed the furniture truck all the way to the northern suburbs of Yaoguang City. The workers were dumbfounded when they saw the ruins. Then they saw the small cement bungalow with even the door rotten, and they looked at each other, wondering whether they should call the police. Could this be a fugitive?
Gu Wang was helpless. He had tried it before, but the mechanism to suppress the Yin Qi would only work if he was present. What else could he do...
After finally getting everything in place and making an appointment to install water, electricity, doors, windows, etc. for tomorrow, Gu Wang lay down on the bed and fell asleep in this shabby house that was drafty on all sides.
Because there was no electricity, there was a half-lit candle on the table.
I don’t know how long it took, but a gust of wind blew, the candlelight swayed, and the shadows cast on the wall moved as if they were alive.
The shadow turned into a monster with fangs, laughed strangely, and bit the person sleeping on the bed!
The author has something to say:
Ghost: I told you this place is haunted, why didn’t you listen?
