Chapter 260 The Ghost Hand Behind Me

Hu Zi's soul flew very fast. When I rushed out of Aunt Wang's house, Hu Zi's soul had already disappeared into the darkness.

"Where did it go?"

I turned my head and looked around, then fixed my eyes on the east end of the village.

I saw that the east end of the village was obviously much darker than where I was at the moment. It felt as if it was swallowed by darkness, and there was no light source to shine in.

It was only a little after seven o'clock in the evening. At this time, it might not be dark in the south, but in the autumn in the northeast, it was already pitch black at this time. Every household turned on the lights. There was no shadow of pedestrians on the whole street. The whole village was silent, with only a few occasional barking of dogs echoing in the dark village.

But strangely, even though Auntie Wang made such a big noise, the neighbors were not alarmed, as if they could not hear anything.

The distance between each household in the countryside is very close, often separated by only a wall. I just broke into the house through the window, and then both Wang Qian and Wang Wen screamed. Logically, the neighbors should not be able to hear anything.

"Could it be that someone has set up a Feng Shui formation around the house to block the view inside the Wang family? But... why can't I detect it?"

I turned my head to look at Auntie Wang's yard, then took a deep breath, and rushed to the east end of the village.

As I walked, I frowned.

"Why is it so cold all of a sudden?"

The temperature was normal one second ago, but the next second, I suddenly felt the temperature drop. It was as if I had suddenly entered another world. Even the occasional barking of dogs suddenly disappeared at this moment.

"Have I entered a certain formation?"

I tightly grasped the Thunder Department's talisman in my hand, and then walked forward carefully.

After about a few minutes, I finally arrived at the east end of the village. Almost as soon as I arrived at the east end of the village, I suddenly heard a low sob in my ear. The sound was like crying and complaining, as if countless people were whispering in my ear, eager to tell me his story.

But the voice was too low and the speech was very fast. In addition, there were countless voices overlapping each other, so I couldn't hear anything at all.

"Is it the wronged soul? It seems that the soul-guiding lamp is nearby."

I squinted my eyes and looked around, and then suddenly my heart trembled. .7

I saw that on an abandoned millstone at the entrance of the village, there was a candle flame jumping from time to time. Looking closely, I found that it was a lantern surrounded by countless wronged souls!

"The Soul-Guiding Lamp is indeed here, but why is the Soul-Guiding Old Man not here?"

No matter who owns such a precious treasure as the Soul-Guiding Lamp, it is impossible for it to be left in the wild for no reason. After all, this thing is a magic weapon that countless practitioners dream of. If anyone can get it, I guess they would want to hug it to sleep, let alone forget it outside.

"Senior Soul-Guiding, I know you are nearby. Since I am here, why don't you show up and see me!"

I held the Thunder Department's talisman and spoke loudly to the darkness around me.

But I didn't get any response from the Soul-Guiding Old Man at all, only the whispering voice that sounded like tears and complaints kept ringing in my ears.

I was annoyed by the noise, so I immediately made a seal with my hands and shouted, "Heaven and earth are natural, the evil spirits dissipate, the Dao spirit lasts forever!"

As I shouted, a stream of qi invisible to the naked eye suddenly exploded from my body.

This qi was like a barrier erected beside me, and it spread out at this moment. The ghosts lingering around me screamed and dispersed immediately, never daring to approach me again. Even the whispering voices that annoyed me disappeared instantly.

"Damn, it's finally clear!" I let out a long breath, and then spoke again, saying to the darkness around me: "Senior, my friend's soul was out of the body due to coincidence, and then was attracted by the soul-guiding lamp. If you are here, please put away the soul-guiding lamp and let me take my friend's soul away."

After I finished speaking, I squinted my eyes and looked around, waiting for the soul-guiding old man's response.

But to my surprise, the soul-guiding old man seemed to be really not here. Not to mention responding to me, I didn't even see a shadow.

"Is he really not here? But... If he is not here, how can the soul-guiding lamp be placed here? Is he using the soul-guiding lamp to attract wandering souls from all directions?"

If this is really the case, then this soul-guiding old man is too confident.

This is the soul-guiding lamp, a treasure that all cultivators want to get. If a cultivator happens to pass by here, even if he knows that this is an owner, and the owner is very likely to be a big boss, he will definitely take the risk and steal it.

After all, the temptation is too great.

Even if a person with ordinary Taoism, after getting the soul-guiding lamp, can use the soul-guiding lamp to control hundreds of ghosts. When fighting against enemies, he doesn't even need to do it himself. The powerful ghosts attracted by the soul-guiding lamp can torture the enemy to death.

"Since you are not here, I can only release my friend's soul by myself, but don't worry, I will never have any idea of ​​​​the soul-guiding lamp."

After saying that, I took a deep breath and then walked slowly towards the soul-guiding lamp.

I walked very carefully. Although my eyes were fixed on the soul-guiding lamp, my mind was always paying attention to the slightest movement around me. It can be said that my five senses were stimulated to the extreme at this moment. Even the slightest sound of wind could not escape my ears.

Finally, I came to the soul-guiding lamp, but when I saw the scene around the soul-guiding lamp, my face suddenly became happy, and I almost subconsciously called out: "Hu Zi!" I saw that

Hu Zi's soul had been completely attracted by the wick in the soul-guiding lamp. I saw him flying around the soul-guiding lamp, with a greedy and urgent look on his face, as if he couldn't wait to get into the cage and become the wick of the cage.

However, it was not just Hu Zi's soul that was lingering around the soul-guiding lamp, but dozens of them.

They crowded together, turning into ghostly auras, circling around the soul-guiding lamp and constantly flying around, staring at the wick inside the soul-guiding lamp with greedy faces.

It was unknown how long these lonely ghosts had been wandering in the world, and some had even harmed people, so they were extremely ghostly. At this moment, Hu Zi, who was lingering here, had only one soul and two spirits, and was not complete, so he could not squeeze in close to the soul-guiding lamp and could only worry about it from the outside.

After seeing this scene, I breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, "Oh my god, it's a good thing I can't get close to him. Otherwise, if I really got into the soul-guiding lamp and became the wick, even if the king of heaven came, Hu Zi would be hard to save.

I checked the surroundings again, and after seeing that there was still no trace of the soul-guiding old man, I pinched the seal with my hands and shouted in a low voice: "The sky is clear and the earth is bright, all laws are the origin, three souls and seven spirits, listen..."

I pinched the seal with my hands, chanted the spell, and stared at Hu Zi's soul, fearing that Hu Zi would have another accident.

But just as I was about to finish chanting the spell, my voice suddenly

stopped. Instead, a dark ghost hand with a strong ghost aura suddenly stretched out from behind me and fell on my shoulder with a "click".
