Chapter 989 The Returnee's Notes 63
Master Wang first gave each person two talismans, one a life-giving talisman and the other a separation talisman. The usage was very simple; all they had to do was light them with fire at the right time.
However, they didn't have enough things to start a fire, so Xie Ning reached into his pocket and pulled out a few lighters.
"Why did you bring so many lighters, sis?"
"I can use it on a regular basis, and since it comes in so many colors, I bought every single one." Actually, she only kept a small box in her storage space for future use.
Jiang Yin glanced at Xie Ning. This little girl has a collecting obsession just like her brother?
This is a circular tomb. Everyone is arranged in a circle around the tomb to ensure that everyone is at the corresponding array point. Wang Laodao, along with Wang Heng and Xie Ning, are writing and drawing on the ground.
Mr. Meng and the three Jiang siblings also went along.
The remaining three, including Ouyang Lin, who didn't know much about formations, stayed put.
If the goal is simply to protect them from ghosts and keep them closer together, the formation will be more effective.
But given the current situation, if they don't eliminate that ghost, they probably won't be able to leave.
Actually, everyone felt heavy-hearted, because even if there were no ghosts here, it would be difficult to leave, since the old man was already dead.
However, Xie Ning gave them a glimmer of hope, because only Xie Ning's phone still had a signal and could contact the outside world, so they just needed to wait here for the rescuers to arrive.
Before that, they had to make sure they were still alive, and not become nourishment for vengeful ghosts.
Zhong Chaoqi unconsciously started shaking his leg, a sign of his nervousness.
He wasn't without regrets after coming here. He was just Zhong Fu's illegitimate son, and to avoid the real young master from harming him, he had cultivated a very good image of a playboy.
Unexpectedly, it was precisely because of this that he became a candidate for sacrifice, because the old man Zhong Fu thought he was worthless, after all, the old man had many illegitimate children.
Of course, Zhong Fu didn't call him here to be a sacrifice; he just wanted him to keep an eye on the people who were hired to do the work, and to make sure they didn't mess things up.
But he wasn't really stupid. Just by looking at Zhong Fupei's bodyguard, he knew this was no simple matter, so he secretly devised a plan to replace the bodyguard with Yuan Ji.
Unexpectedly, his preparatory work actually came in handy.
Perhaps he was only brought here to bleed some blood, but Third Uncle is ruthless. He actually wants him to lose everything, so don't blame him for showing no mercy.
At first, he didn't believe in any of those supernatural things. Even when he got halfway up the mountain, he thought that this group of people were all charlatans who were just trying to swindle money from him. They were just building a grave and making a big fuss over nothing.
But when Ouyang Lin summoned the two ghosts, he really panicked. He should have run away. Instead, he had that kind of curiosity that made him think, "Since I'm already here, I have to see what's going on."
And then they truly became sacrifices.
He certainly didn't want to die, so the one who died must have been someone else.
As a result, the old man, Third Uncle, dragged everyone down with him. At that moment, he actually sensed the killing intent emanating from Ouyang Lin.
However, he had a gun and wasn't afraid.
What he feared were ghosts who weren't afraid of guns.
Fortunately, Ouyang Lin's last words comforted him, otherwise he would have really followed in the footsteps of his third great-uncle.
He is indeed not of the Zhong family bloodline. That old man indulges in debauchery and keeps mistresses, so why can't his mother keep a few male models outside?
Just as Zhong Chaoqi was lost in thought, a sharp screech suddenly came from above, so piercing it felt like it would burst one's eardrums.
Ouyang Lin quickly sat cross-legged on the ground, and the mournful sound of the xun (a type of ancient Chinese wind instrument) filled the entire space, instantly sobering up the three vengeful ghosts.
If the ghost does not reveal itself, others cannot see its specific form; they can only see a large cloud of red mist. However, Xie Ning can see it.
The male ghost dressed in red was seen pulling on the neck of the female ghost in black with an iron chain, while the other female ghost in red was held back by him and dared not move.
"Let her go! Let her go! Let Jiao'er go! She's your daughter..." Why won't you let them go even though they're dead?
She regretted it; she should have listened to her father and not chosen Zhong Shang'an.
Her father always said that Zhong Shang'an was rebellious and that she couldn't control him, but she didn't believe it. How could someone so gentle and fond of her harm her?
Little did they expect that their momentary stubbornness would lead to the destruction of the entire Lin family.
