Chapter 148 Let's get off the coffin first

The coffin had been nailed, and Lin Du was too lazy to use tools. He raised his hand to tear off the talisman, called Yan Qing, and directly used a knife to remove the nails.

Everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but exclaim, "It's immoral, it's immoral!"

"Whether it's immoral or not is another matter. They have dug out such a dangerous soul-sealing formation. If they open the coffin and come back to life, do they think they didn't die quickly enough?"

After a while, the coffin lid was opened.

The two people worked together to remove the coffin lid, and what they saw was a somewhat dry corpse.

The corpse was also nailed with extremely long nails from top to bottom, but the cloth on the body was still bright and well preserved.

"The Yin Meridians of this corpse are sealed. If the soul is led into the Soul Sealing Array, the resentment cannot be replenished and can only slowly dissipate over thousands of years."

Lin Du saw the key at a glance and turned to look at the Seventh Gate outside. "The Yin Meridians are sealed. Even if the ghost's resentment has not dissipated, it will not be replenished after returning to the body."

What's more, after a thousand years, I'm afraid it would have dissipated long ago.

Lin Du looked at the talisman in her hand, lowered her eyes and waited for a while, and sighed softly.

It seems that the ghost-locking array just prepared is useless.

But soon Lin Du realized that something was wrong. She suddenly raised her hand and used her spiritual power to close the lid again, and quickly turned over and stepped on it.

"Junior Master?"

Lin Du frowned. "The nail that seals the Yin meridian should be seven inches long. After being inserted into the body, it should protrude no longer than three inches. But when we opened the coffin, the nail..."

Xia Tian said without hesitation, "At least six inches."

The Yin meridian was either not sealed at all, or... it was pushed up a little bit during this period.

The Yin meridian is at least half unblocked now.

"The Yin Qi is still there, so the body has not decayed, and the ghost's Yin Qi is also constantly replenished, so it will not dissipate," Lin Du frowned. "But if there are no ghost remnants in the soul-sealing formation, then we can only..."

Several people felt a chill on their backs, almost sweating.

"It can only have escaped at the beginning." Yan Qing continued.

Lin Du sighed softly, glanced at a few people, and said loudly, "I am Lin Du, the 99th generation disciple of the Supreme Sect. I have no intention of disturbing you. I was sent here because of the Zhongzhou competition. If you are willing to show up, I will solve the puzzle and send you to the underworld."

Xia Tianwu glanced at Lin Du, "Junior Master, do you want to get off the coffin first before talking?"

Lin Du said, "No, you should hold it down and wait until you come out."

A gust of cold wind suddenly blew in the room, bringing a biting chill, making the four of them shiver.

Lin Du took a deep breath and looked down at the compass in his hand. The needle was spinning rapidly, then suddenly stopped and pointed in Lin Du's direction.

She raised her eyebrows, suppressed the sharp surprise in her heart, turned her head slowly, and then showed a standard fake smile, "Senior?"

Bang!

An extremely strong gust of wind rushed straight to Lin Du's face.

Lin Du lay back directly, sticking to the coffin board to escape the disaster, and then neatly used his waist as a fulcrum, turned his body ninety degrees, slid along the way, and his feet sank into a piece of weightless mud.

It turned out that he was waiting for her here.

Lin Du was swallowed by the space, and when he looked up, it seemed that he was back to the original hall.

But it was different. Except for the coffin, the entire floor and the beams and furniture were as new as a painting, and even glowed with a saturated and moist light after being scrubbed for a long time.

Illusion, or should it be called, ghostland.

After all, it doesn't really exist.

Lin Du was holding the compass, preparing to find the exit door and break it open, but she heard a voice.

She narrowed her eyes and quietly moved to the door.

There was a chaotic sound of footsteps like chasing in the courtyard, followed by cheerful laughter.

A little kid was running in the front with short legs. A young man in blue, wearing a colorful Nuo mask, deliberately made a fierce look and followed behind the little kid, pretending to catch her.

The little kid had short arms and legs and was particularly round. She didn't run very fast, like a ball with legs that couldn't roll fast. She was quickly caught by the young man.

"Ha! You're caught! The big devil wants to eat children!"

The man with the Nuo mask picked up the child, shook it hard, and put his face with the Nuo mask in front of the little kid.

The kid didn't cry, but pulled out a short wooden sword from his waist, "Demon! Look at the sword!"

The wooden sword made a click and lightly hit the Nuo mask. The young man actually staggered to the side, shaking the kid and screaming, and finally fell to the ground together.

The kid jumped down on his father's chest, still holding the wooden sword in a show of strength, "Great! The big demon is dead!"

The young man took off the Nuo mask, revealing a dignified and gentle face, "Well done, you are worthy of being my son."

"If you meet a demon in the future, you must fight to the last moment and never be a deserter."

He sat on the ground, hugged his son and laughed happily.

Lin Du looked at this scene, thinking about something. When he saw that they were about to enter the main hall, he turned around and avoided them, left through the back door, walked through the vermilion corridor, bypassed a rockery and flowing water, and exotic flowers and vines, and arrived in front of the annex.

"The border has been uneasy these days. Look at you, you have been injured so badly, but you still have to go forward." The woman's voice was full of complaints. "

The evil demons robbed and hurt people. I am one of the few high-level monks in the town. I can't help but rescue them." The man's voice was dignified, and it was the voice of the young man in front of the main hall just now.

Lin Du stood outside the annex, cautiously, for fear of disturbing the people in the illusion.

"I always feel that the frequency of evil spirits hurting people is getting higher and higher. Recently, the town has not been peaceful. Several children have been lost. Chen Yan, why don't we move?" The woman's voice was full of worry. "

If I leave, the border of Zhongzhou... there will be one less city for human cultivators to live in. Someone has already sent a letter to friends in the big sect. When they come, we can directly kill those evil spirits, and our lives will be peaceful in the future."

Lin Du frowned. Liyang Town is indeed on the border of Zhongzhou. The anecdotes also wrote about the speculation of the people. The biggest possibility is that there are evil spirits harassing, so it gradually became an isolated city.

But a town with frequent trade would not wait until it was emptied before someone discovered it.

Therefore, it has always been an unsolved mystery.

Now it seems that it is still related to evil spirits.

But why is there no trace of demonic invasion in the city?

There has been no sound in the house for a while. Lin Du clearly saw the flowers in the yard slowly withering, and then turned into a withered appearance in winter.

She walked towards the inner courtyard again.

Soon she heard shouts, "Go and look for our child! How could it be that our child is gone! You are a cultivator in the Huiyang realm! Why is the child lost!"

The woman's cry suddenly rang out, and the young man in blue silently held the struggling woman in his arms, pursed his lips, and his expression was gloomy.

"It was just one night, and Hui'er is gone. Why!"

"You are a cultivator in the Huiyang realm, why didn't you notice that Hui'er is gone!"

The woman slapped the man's chest hard, tears streaming down her face, and she was devastated.

Lin Du listened to the crying in his ears, and suddenly had a vague guess in his heart.

There are evil demons in human skin in this town.

This is an illusion created by the ghost with resentment, so the things in it must be the things he remembers most deeply.

And the ghost with the sealed soul, if nothing unexpected happens, is this Chen Yan.

This... the father of the child.

But what did he do to make people set up a soul-sealing formation for him, such a cruel method that he cannot be reborn?
