Chapter 149 Lifting the lid of the coffin again
Lin Du was in the illusion, just about to lift his feet to bypass this place, suddenly heard a voice, "Who!"
Lin Du saw a blue shadow at a glance, his eyelids jumped, and stuck an invisibility talisman on his body, then dived down and slapped Yan Qing on the back with the invisibility talisman.
The blue-shirted scholar was about to scream, but Lin Du blocked his throat, and then forcibly dragged him by the back of the neck to behind a rockery.
Yan Qing then realized that it was his junior master uncle, and he opened his mouth with his eyes wide open, but found that he could not make a sound, so he could only raise his hands to gesture.
Lin Du used his consciousness to transmit his voice, "Your consciousness is not sealed, you can transmit it to me directly. Don't alarm the people in the ghost domain, otherwise the ghost domain will collapse and we will be locked in his territory and can't get out at all."
Yan Qing has grown taller over the years, and he looks thin in a blue shirt. Now he is hunched over and forced to curl up, for fear of being discovered.
"Okay, junior uncle!"
Lin Du's attention was originally in front of the room. He turned around and looked as if he saw a shrimp that had just been pulled ashore.
"Why are you hunched over? Did I hit you? Stand up straight!"
Yan Qing wanted to say that he did, but he didn't dare to say it. He pointed at the rockery with grievance, "I am taller than the rockery."
The rockery was indeed not high, even only a few inches taller than Lin Du. Yan Qing didn't even need to stand up straight to be taller than the rockery.
Lin Du hummed perfunctorily, "I know you've grown taller again, so what?"
"Don't let anyone see you?"
"Why do you think I slapped you?" Lin Du sighed, "I put an invisibility charm on your back, you'll be fine within an incense stick of time, don't worry, I pulled you behind the rockery because I was afraid that you would be unable to reflexively draw your sword."
The strong spiritual power fluctuations of drawing a sword would certainly be detected.
Yan Qing stood up straight, and the person in front of the room had disappeared.
"Junior Master, how do we break this ghost domain?"
Lin Du answered irrelevantly, "This ghost is a good ghost!"
Yan Qing: ? What kind of good ghost would be used by such a fierce formation!
The punishment of not being able to reincarnate is undoubtedly extremely tragic for a cultivator.
Lin Du smiled, said nothing, and continued walking with Yan Qing.
After walking for a while, Yan Qing suddenly became curious, "Why can't we get to the backyard? It's obviously there, but not in this ghostland."
"You've hit the nail on the head." Lin Du smiled, "Because his memory of the backyard is not deep."
"Let's go to the front hall."
The two of them went back to the hall, and when they walked back from the back door to the front door, they heard a suppressed cry of pain.
"Madam!!!"
"Please accept my condolences. Her body was found by passing merchants outside the city. Because they had been protected by you, they recognized her as your wife and asked me to bring her back."
The body was wrapped in a straw mat, and it was obvious that he felt a little guilty. Now the straw mat was opened and the body was cut open, and it was no longer as lively as it was in the illusion just now.
The bright and beautiful face that was happy and angry turned into a pile of rotten meat.
Lin Du and Yan Qing looked at the scene in front of them and couldn't help frowning.
"My son is missing and my wife is dead. I think it's normal for him to do something excessive." Yan Qing sighed and suddenly realized that his junior master was looking at him with a strange look on his face.
"Young man, your idea is very dangerous." Lin Du looked at Yan Qing.
Yan Qing was silent for a moment, and hurriedly explained, "Junior master, I don't mean that! Really! You have to believe me."
Lin Du smiled, turned his head to look at Shen Yan who was trying hard to suppress his grief, and lowered his eyes to think for a while.
Now there are two clues. The evil demons outside the city are the norm, and children in the city are frequently missing.
Lin Du suddenly noticed a little bit of ashes.
"Is that... incense ash?"
The structure of incense ash is not the same as that of dust, and the state of it on the straw mat and clothes is also different.
The eyesight of a monk is far superior to that of an ordinary person. After Lin Du said that, Yan Qing also saw the fine incense ash on the body of the woman.
Lin Du thought of a temple in the city when he was exploring the whole city.
How could an evil demon go to a temple? Even if it is the god of incense, it has a spirit.
Suddenly, the illusion shook, the wind howled, and the biting cold poured into the bodies of the two people. The scene in front of the hall had disappeared like dust.
An old Taoist in black, with a black-faced and fanged Nuo mask on his face, appeared in front of the main hall, holding seventeen Tongmei in his hand, and chanting something.
He lowered his head, and the red spot on his forehead was slowly moving down. It turned out to be blood.
There was a black coffin in the main hall. Suddenly, there were about seven or eight more people. They held blood-sealing nails in their hands and muttered, "Brother Shen, don't blame us. You lost your wife and children, and you became a demon. You almost smashed the statues in the temple and angered the people. Without the gods, who would protect the people in our town? Now that the gods are angry, we are all in trouble..."
The tall young man had already lost his life. He was forced into the coffin, the blood-sealing nails were driven into his body, the lid of the black coffin was slammed shut, and a magic talisman was quickly attached to the coffin board.
Then several people performed the same ritual to lead the wronged soul into Xiaoqiguan.
Lin Du had sharp eyes and saw that before the coffin was closed, the nail on the yin meridian seemed to move upwards.
The wind howled, and the wronged soul of the body that was forcibly extracted struggled in the air, but was pressed into the Xiaoqi Pass by a group of people.
This is what happens after death. It
is also the moment of the heaviest resentment.
The ghosts cried in waves, like a miserable scream, a voiceless cry, a baby's cry, and a woman's scream.
Yan Qing frowned, "It seems that things are not that simple. Those who are sealed are not necessarily bad people. Junior Uncle-Master, what should we do now?"
Lin Du seemed to be thinking about it. "There are eight gates: Rest, Life, Injury, Du, Scenery, Death, Surprise, and Open. Generally speaking, we cannot escape the three lucky gates of Open, Rest, and Life, and the three evil gates of Death, Surprise, and Injury." "
The Feng Shui of this mansion was originally very good. It faces south and the door opens to the southeast. The life gate is in the northeast. The life gate should be in the backyard. Moreover, everything in the illusion just now, this hall is located in the southwest, how can it be a death gate."
Lin Du changed the subject, "But this is a ghost domain."
"Ghosts are different from living people. This is upside down. The life gate of ghosts is the death gate of people, and the death gate of ghosts is the life gate of people."
Lin Du stood in the main hall, holding a heavy iron folding fan in his hand, pointing at the black coffin, his eyes firm, "Here is our life gate."
Yan Qing could understand the first part, but when Lin Du said it was upside down, he couldn't understand it at all, but he chose to believe the junior master.
Lin Du took off the invisibility spell, and the ghost realm sensed the existence of living people, and the resentment surged out, roaring and attacking Lin Du.
Yan Qing was so scared that he immediately blocked in front of Lin Du and slashed with a knife, "Junior master, be careful."
The straight golden knife energy pierced through the surging dark ghost energy and slashed the ghost energy that was almost condensed into substance.
Lin Du had already circled to the black coffin, stretched out his hand to uncover the yellow talisman, and the folding fan in his hand had already opened. The sharp spiritual light rubbed against the exposed nail surface, cutting a spiritual light, rubbing the paint surface of the black coffin into curls.
The folding fan suddenly closed, and Lin Du slapped the coffin lid with one palm, and the seven long nails were suddenly shaken into the air.
The people in the stands who witnessed this scene couldn't help but exclaimed.
"This Lin Du actually wants to lift the coffin lid again?"
"This is the place where the ghosts' resentment is the most concentrated, and it is also the section where the resentment before death is the deepest. It is clearly either the death gate or the shock gate! What kind of formation genius is this?"
Some people wanted to rush in and wake Lin Du up. He was so young and so good-looking, but he wasted his life.
"No, Lin Du is right, that is indeed the life gate, and also the center of the illusion array. The black coffin is in front of the life gate. Unless Lin Du opens the coffin and pulls out the nails that seal the Yin meridian, he will never find the life gate." The head of the Lian Heng sect blurted out.
"But if that's the case, the soul-sealing array will be completely broken, and the ghost will be out soon. If the nails are not pulled out, the person will die if he is trapped in the illusion array. If the nails are pulled out, he will be torn to pieces by the evil ghost and still die!"
"This ghost is really smart!" Someone sighed, and then said with regret, "What a pity."
What a pity, Lin Du clearly saw it, but she still chose to pull out the pulse nails and open the life gate.
In the illusion, the young man in blue shirt was fighting against the fierce ghost with a big knife in his hand, while Lin Du was focused on lifting the lid of the coffin.
Lin Du raised his hand and directly lifted the lid of the black coffin. Seven dark blue Yin fires suddenly rose up. Lin Du did not stop, but folded his folding fan, ignoring the burning pain of the Yin fire, and directly pulled out the seven vein-sealing nails.
In an instant, the Yin wind stopped for a moment, and then suddenly broke out from the coffin. The coldness penetrated into the skin like a needle, and the ghost roared into the eardrum of the person with the overwhelming resentment, like thousands of ghost hands scratching the eardrum of the person, shaking the person's soul.
Inside the black coffin, the corpse had disappeared.
Lin Du quickly grabbed Yan Qing, who was swinging a knife, and jumped into the black coffin by the back of his collar.
