Chapter 257 Substitute Technique
Seeing Hu Zi's appearance, especially seeing the soul lamp and spirit lamp jumping on his shoulders, I was immediately shocked.
"What's going on? How could Hu Zi... lose one soul and one spirit?"
At this moment, Hu Zi seemed to be stupid. He ignored me and staggered into the house. After that, he ignored Ling'er who was stunned and went into the room without paying attention to her.
"Brother Qian Yu, Brother Hu Zi... seems to be possessed by evil spirits." Ling'er looked at Hu Zi's back, her face was full of panic, and said, "I'll call my dad and ask him to come back."
After saying that, Ling'er went into my room, picked up the phone and called Pao Zhen.
But I didn't move, just stared at Hu Zi with a gloomy face.
After Hu Zi entered the room, he did not close the door, but walked directly to the bed and then lay down on it.
Hu Zi was lying on his back, with his hands hanging naturally on both sides of his body, his eyes wide open, and he looked like a person who was terminally ill and about to die. Not only was there no life in him, but there was even a faint smell of death.
"Did you get through?" I looked at Ling'er, who shook her head and said, "Dad went into the mountains, there is no signal, and I can't get through at all."
I took a deep breath, then shook my head and said, "No need to call, I know what's going on."
"Brother Qianyu, can you save Brother Huzi? Brother Huzi...what happened to him?"
It can be seen that Ling'er is really worried about Huzi, her eyes are red, and tears are rolling in her eyes.
"He has been seduced by someone, you stay at home to take care of Huzi, I'm going out for a while!"
After I saw that Huzi had lost one soul and one spirit, I knew what was going on.
The soul-guiding old man is in our village. His soul-guiding lamp can not only attract powerful ghosts from all directions, but also draw out a person's soul.
Especially, thinking about what Wang Wen suddenly said to Wang Qian last night, I was more certain that Hu Zi was harmed by Wang Wen, or rather, by Wang Wen and the Soul Guiding Old Man.
But there was one thing I didn't understand. With the Soul Guiding Old Man's ability, if he wanted to harm a person, he could do it without anyone noticing. Why did he choose to seduce Hu Zi's soul?
"Could it be that the Soul Guiding Old Man saw Hu Zi's fate and wanted to seduce his soul for other purposes? Or... Wang Wen needs Hu Zi's soul?"
I had already decided not to intervene in the affairs of the Wang family, but I didn't expect that the affairs of the Wang family would involve Hu Zi.
Now, even if I didn't want to intervene, I couldn't.
I took a deep breath and turned to leave. Seeing this, Ling'er hurriedly shouted, "Brother Qian Yu, be careful."
"It's okay, I'll be back soon."
After I finished speaking, I walked out of the yard quickly and walked quickly to the Wang family.
At this moment, it was completely dark, and every household had turned on the lights, but Auntie Wang's house was pitch black, and there was even a faint aura of death lingering around the house. It felt as if it was not a house where people lived, but a haunted house.
I did not rush into Wang's house, but hid under the wall and listened carefully to the movements in the house.
"The aura of death is so strong, could it be that Auntie Wang and Wang Qian have had an accident?" I looked into the yard and saw that there was nothing unusual, so I took a deep breath, then jumped over the wall and jumped in.
I tiptoed to the window and peeked in. I saw Auntie Wang lying motionless on the bed, and the deathly aura lingering above her head was already very heavy.
"Where are Wang Wen and Wang Qian?" I touched the window of the west room again and peeked in. I saw Wang Qian was huddled at the foot of the bed with a look of fear on her face, trembling as she looked at Wang Wen.
And Wang Wen actually drew an extremely strange symbol on the ground. At this moment, he sat cross-legged in the symbol, and made a very strange seal with his hands, as if he was performing a ritual.
"What is he doing?" I squinted my eyes and carefully examined the symbol under Wang Wen, and then I found that the symbol was actually an eye.
However, Wang Wen painted this eye in a very evil way, with the eyeball painted blood red, emitting an unspeakable evil aura.
"Brother, what are you doing? Didn't you say that you wanted me to seduce him out, and then, and then bring us together?" Wang Qian huddled in the corner, and said with a trembling voice: "Why does he seem to be possessed by evil spirits? And, brother, what did you mean by what you just said, what substitute?"
"Qianqian, don't ask yet, I'll explain it to you later." After Wang Wen finished speaking, his handprint changed, and then he pointed to the void in front of him and shouted: "Now."
As he shouted, he saw a black gas suddenly surging in front of him. After a while, the black gas actually condensed together and turned into a person.
"Is this... Hu Zi's soul?"
I was shocked because the person that was condensed was Hu Zi!
Hu Zi only lost one soul and one spirit, so the condensed human figure was very pale, as if it would be dispersed by the wind, and his eyes were dull, without any emotion.
Wang Wen pinched the seal with his hands and chanted something to Hu Zi's soul. Then, he saw his eyes condensed and continued to shout: "Soul!"
As his voice fell, Hu Zi in front of him suddenly twisted, and the expression on his face became extremely painful.
Then, I suddenly felt a black gas passing by me, and it drilled into the house with a "whoosh", and finally overlapped with Hu Zi's soul and spirit.
When the black energy and Hu Zi's soul and spirit overlapped, Hu Zi's image became more real.
"This is... another soul? Fuck you, are you going to kill Hu Zi!" I clenched my fists, and I felt a surge of anger rising to my head. I immediately stood up and broke into the window.
But Wang Wen's next words made me stunned.
"Qianqian, this person's birth date is very suitable for being my substitute. There is something I didn't tell you. In fact, I didn't go to college in the city, but became a disciple of a master. The master taught me Taoism and helped me practice. The core skill of this master is the substitute technique. As long as I can draw all the souls of this person, erase their original memories and consciousness, and then implant my own consciousness, I can sacrifice them into a second me. By then, I will have an extra life. If I practice the substitute technique to the extreme, I can even achieve immortality."
I was shocked when I heard it: "Did Wang Wen become a disciple of the soul-guiding old man? But what about that female ghost? Could it be that she was also killed by him?"
