And the wives had to be buried with the dead men.
"It's so abominable. It's a new society now, but there are still such bad habits." After hearing this, Zhang Meng couldn't help but curse.
The women in the room also wiped away their tears for their future fate.
Gu Mingtai shook Zhang Meng, who was shaking with anger, and immediately looked at Hong Xiu Lian. He found that among these women, she seemed to listen to him more.
"Do you know what's going on with that big cemetery in the mountain behind you? Why can't people get out after entering it?"
Hong Xiulian was silent for a moment, then quickly continued, "I don't know much about that. My husband never allows us women to accompany him when he goes to bury someone, saying it's an ancestral rule. I only know that place is where all the men in the village are buried. And I once heard my husband, when he was drunk, say that the place was very evil, and that the women buried there were actually given to a demon to eat. Later, no matter how much I asked him, he refused to tell me. He even warned me that if I dared to spread this matter, he would kill me."
When talking about this, Hong Xiulian was still shaking all over, which shows that those words still have a great impact on her.
Zhang Meng quickly stepped forward, held her hand, and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, we will definitely help you leave this place."
Hong Xiulian looked up, her eyes red. "Thank you, but you have to be careful. That's a place not only for you, but also for us villagers. We rarely go in there. Usually, if we go in, we have to bury someone before we can get out."
Zhang Meng patted her to comfort her, then immediately looked at Gu Mingtai who was lost in thought, "Gu Mingtai, what should we do? That place seems quite dangerous."
"It's dangerous to go in. If we delay any longer, the people in Team 2 will be in even greater danger." Gu Mingtai said.
"I know that the people in this village have a habit. They prepare to go to bed at three o'clock in the afternoon and sleep until three o'clock in the morning. This is something they have not changed since I came to this village." Hong Xiu Lian mentioned another useful piece of information.
Gu Mingtai was silent for a while, then made a decision, "We'll go to the big cemetery in the back mountain after three o'clock in the afternoon."
Naturally, others had no objection to his proposal.
In the end, the six people hid in a place provided by Hong Xiulian until three o'clock in the afternoon.
As soon as she got out, Zhang Meng immediately stopped the others who were about to leave, "Wait."
Everyone stopped. "What a strong smell of death, can you smell it?" Zhang Meng asked, looking at the five of them.
Except for Gu Mingtai who had no expression at all, the other four people sniffed around after hearing Zhang Meng's words.
"No, we don't smell anything." The four of them sniffed around and answered at the same time.
Zhang Meng knocked her head and only then remembered that the four of them were ordinary people. How could they smell the scent of a dead person?
"Gu Mingtai, do you smell it?" She immediately looked at him who had remained calm and composed and asked.
"It's a ghost general, and he should be a ghost that has been dead for hundreds of years. I didn't expect that there would be such a powerful ghost general in this place." Gu Mingtai's face changed.
"Ghost General!" The five people shouted these two words in unison.
Except for Zhang Meng who was very impressed with the name, the other four had confused expressions.
They had no idea what a powerful ghost they were facing.
The village wasn't big, and Gu Mingtai soon found the location of the ghost general. It was in a villager's house. When the six of them approached, a ghost general with a green face and sharp teeth, wearing armor, stood in front of a villager and sucked his yang energy.
"Ah, what is this?" One of the other two soldiers screamed in fear at the ghost general's appearance.
The ghost general who was absorbing yang energy was alarmed, and his blood-red eyes immediately locked onto them.
Zhang Meng was so angry that she really wanted to kick her companion who was more of a hindrance than an aid. But before she could do anything, the ghost general inside flew towards them with a whoosh.
"All four of you step aside." After saying this, when Gu Mingtai rushed forward, Zhang Meng quickly took out the prepared talisman paper and followed.
Gu Mingtai's Buddhist beads hit the ghost general on the head, but the ghost general was fine. Instead, he gave them a creepy smile.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Meng immediately threw the four bloody talismans in his hand over and chanted the spell loudly, "God is as urgent as the law, command." After he finished chanting, the four talismans formed a powerful Bagua formation in mid-air and pressed down over the ghost general's head.
The ghost general was suddenly forced to his knees by the Bagua Formation, with green liquid oozing out of his mouth and eyes.
The air was filled with a foul smell that made people feel sick.
The ghost general kneeling on the ground stared at Zhang Meng with a pair of unwilling blood-red eyes and roared.
Zhang Meng cursed, this dying ghost dared to threaten her, it seemed that she had no choice but to take it in.
She took out three more bloody talismans, took a look at them, and felt a pang of pain. In order to deal with this ghost general, she had almost spent seven talismans.
The ghost general, who had suffered a loss once, saw her take out the same talisman paper again, and fear flashed in his eyes. Suddenly, he took out a spear from somewhere in his hand.
Seeing this, Zhang Meng narrowed her eyes. She felt that this time the ghost general was not as scared as he was at the beginning when facing her talisman paper.
Sure enough, after Zhang Meng waved the three talismans over, the ghost general blocked it with his spear, barely blocking the power of the three talismans.
