Chapter 25

The locust trees on both sides of the road in Bloody Hand Village stood in the shadows. Looking through the window, it seemed that there was a rickety old man standing outside the convenience store at the end of the road.

The figure was blurry and gradually approached the center of the road.

Normal people should immediately avoid the sound of a car when they hear it, but Tu Mingliang guessed that the old man was hard of hearing and walked straight to where the car must pass without looking up at the road, and he had no intention of stopping.

He changed the direction of the car, moved to the left side of the road, and muttered: "These old people in the village, they have never seen a four-wheeled vehicle, and they don't give way when they see it..."

Just as the car passed the old man, , Ah Chao suddenly screamed in Zhang Jigang's ear, like sparks falling into boiling oil, igniting the quiet atmosphere in the car.

Zhang Jigang looked over and saw a pair of black pupils staring at him outside the window!

The lower half of the old man's body had long since disappeared, leaving only his crooked head floating along with the car.

Zhang Jigang instantly pulled Ah Chao to his side, trying to lower the car curtains.

But several bloody handprints flashed outside the window, and even a crack gradually appeared in the lower right corner of the glass...

"He wants to break the window! -"

Zhang Jigang couldn't tell why this thing came with him. The person's identity is complicated, and the most likely one is this child. After all, he has been a thief for many years, and his body is contaminated with too much evil spirit.

When Tu Minglang saw this, he also sped up his words: "Why, why is the car being chased by a ghost again? I've been following you two without stopping for a moment! I'll get rid of him!"

There is still a long way to go before he can successfully drive into the back mountain. Everyone was drowsy by the comfortable temperature in the car and relaxed their vigilance.

Who knew that the talismans posted on the outside of the car had long since fallen off, and the magic to exorcise ghosts was no longer effective. They did not expect to encounter ghosts to prevent them from entering the mountain.

Put your foot down and pull the accelerator to the maximum!

The wheels of the car were pressed deeply into the mud, rotating and rubbing at high speed, causing mud spots to overflow.

Ah Chao was so frightened that he huddled up in Zhang Jigang's arms, not daring to raise his eyes to look at it. He felt that this thing must be chasing him. Maybe it was an old ghost exorcist who had his personal magic weapon stolen. Later, he became depressed and was involved in the evil spirit nearby and died.

Although he was not willing and active, he had done something wrong after all. The more he thought about it, the more desperate he became. He cried and begged: "Brother, I beg you, don't throw me out of the car... If they catch me, I will be bitten." I will bite him to death and never see my cousin again...I was wrong! I know I was wrong..."

Tu Minglang was looking at the road ahead to overtake, without paying attention to the people beside him, but in his peripheral vision, he always felt that there was someone on the right side. In the shadows, blood suddenly appeared.

"Brother Cui! You... don't sleep! -"

Tu Minglang raised his foot and kicked Cui Yu. Cui Yu, who was sleeping soundly in the passenger compartment, then raised his head and looked to the right...

That ghost saw the back door He also added a ghost exorcism formation on the inside, but it couldn't be broken by force, so he chose to try from the front door and smashed the glass to create a gap.

Cui Yu glanced boredly and said nothing.

Tu Minglang almost collapsed as he watched the ghost's sharp claws pierce into his flesh and blood flowed down.

"Brother Cui, what are you doing? There's a ghost! There's a ghost! Drive it away quickly..."

Zhang Jigang got up angrily when he saw the bloody light, lit the ghost fire, grabbed the ghost's hand and broke it hard Turn over.

"Get out of here!! -"

The words he had memorized once flashed in his mind, and Zhang Jigang launched the ghost exorcism array without even thinking about it. Moreover, it was a formation that gathered powerful magic power and hit the target directly.

"Ah ah ah! ---"

The ghost blew up black smoke, bared its teeth and roared, trying to drag Cui Yu out of the car.

Zhang Jigang glared at it fiercely, and the dark fire was about to come out with the roar of arrogance, and half of the car was plunged into thick fog.

Tu Minglang choked and waved his hands repeatedly: "Ahem...Ji Gang, please take it easy. This car will be scrapped after a while. Don't, don't use the formation anymore, it can't survive..."

With a miserable neigh, that car The ghost figure shook and turned into a wisp of ash and floated away.

Tu Minglang was the only one who was worried the whole time. The boy in the back seat was shivering and did not open his eyes at all. Cui Yu, who was scratched, remained silent and looked at the person who cast the spell quietly.

Zhang Jigang shouted: "You idiot, why don't you resist? Can't you feel the injury?"

Cui Yu hugged his bloody arm and pursed his lips: "You didn't give me an order to do it, I Why are you resisting? I want to listen to you."

Zhang Jigang pulled off his vest, wrapped up Cui Yu's injured part with the piece of cotton cloth, and said unbearably: "This is not at school, you can bully you. If you don't resist, it can be regarded as a joke, but it is very dangerous now, do you understand?"

He has not yet mastered the method of healing, and he is even trying methods to exorcise ghosts one by one, and he doesn't have much confidence in his heart.

He only knows that magic weapons can be injured, damaged, stolen by those who want to profit from them, and can make mistakes from time to time!

Tu Minglang quickly smoothed things over when he saw this: "Ji Gang, don't blame him, it's because you don't understand well. Historically, once a magical weapon has been identified as its owner, it cannot act against the owner's wishes, otherwise it will affect the ghost exorcist's judgment and cause the backlash of the contract's side effects. ..."

Zhang Jigang tore his vest to pieces, exposing part of his abdomen. The outline of his muscles was vague, showing signs of more training than a few years ago.

Cui Yuwang apologized to him: "I'm sorry, I should have asked you earlier. I'm fine. Look at the back seat and my coat. Put it on first."

Zhang Jigang was in a hurry to go out in the morning, and he didn't have time to choose. Cui Yu felt that it was foggy and humid in the morning, so he would definitely feel cold if the air conditioner blew too much.

So before he got in the car, he left his coat for Zhang Jigang.

"I don't know how to heal, and you always get yourself hurt... Do you think your destiny is as hard as mine?"

For Zhang Jigang, who has a body that attracts ghosts, it is better to be in danger than to cause trouble to others. I was afraid that some evil spirit might bring harm to my mother, so I used my pocket money to buy a red cinnabar bracelet for my mother. I bought it from a stall in front of the school for five yuan.

He didn't know if it would work, but he had to do it.

As for getting along with the people around him, Zhang Jigang never dared to cross that hurdle and get too close to anyone, not only because he was poor, but because he felt that his fate was so miserable that he should not be dragged along with him.

He is just an ordinary novice ghost exorcist, and he has not even found the secret to the most common spell such as healing. How can he not worry about what will happen to Cui Yu after he follows him?

The ghosts that strayed into the road were killed, but Zhang Jigang's attention was still on Cui Yu. He said angrily: "Thirteen, I don't want to be your master! You'd better find a powerful ghost exorcist to follow!" Cui

Yu moved his lower lip and stared blankly at the wound seeping with black blood. The atmosphere in the car seemed to be still, and no one dared to move.

After turning the last corner, the off-road vehicle drove into the jungle. The green and tall trees in front blocked the morning light in the sky, and the vision suddenly darkened.

The rustle of leaves slapping against the car made a rhythmic melody, and Zhang Jigang seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat.

He didn't say anything irresponsible out of anger, but he had this idea when the two of them decided on their aspirations, and after the dust settled on their whereabouts, he wanted to say it.

He hoped that this graduation trip could be the last time the two of them spent together, coming to a quiet and beautiful town, drinking tea and admiring the scenery, completely letting go of everything before, and saying goodbye to each other.

Many times, Zhang Jigang felt that Cui Yu was very nice, so nice that he didn't seem to be from the same world as him.

Even if Cui Yu is no longer an ordinary quasi-university, but a magic weapon with unknown life experience and origin, he still hopes that the other party can find a ghost exorcist who can give Cui Yu a sense of security and protection.

Instead of encountering danger again like now, a trip turns into an escape game.

Ah Chao's cry became weaker and he touched Zhang Jigang's back and whispered: "Brother... don't quarrel with your beautiful brother, it's all because of me that you attract ghosts..."

Zhang Jigang folded his arms and groaned. : "It's not because of you. It attacked my side first. I can see from the ghost's eyes that it is full of hatred and aggression towards me."

The moment they met his eyes, Zhang Jigang could no longer control himself. deception, but a deep realization that the ghost was coming for him.

Just because he was worried that Ah Chao would be frightened and faint, he reinforced a circle of talismans in the car, but he only ignored Cui Yu in the front row.

"I don't like this sentence, please take it back."

Cui Yu suppressed a strange sentence, causing Zhang Jigang's hanging mouth to close gently.

Tu Minglang's expression can only be described as bitter and resentful. He pinched the bridge of his nose, put down the windshield, and sighed: "Comrades, now that we have entered the forest, the most important thing now is to find the location of the cave. I Let me tell you first that I have never been here..."

When he said this, he stretched out his hand from underneath and firmly pressed Cui Yu's hand that was about to use his magic power.

Cui Yu turned his head sharply and glanced at Tu Minglang.

Tu Minglang didn't bother to explain why he tried to dissuade him. This was not the first time. The reason why the Tu family was famous in the local area was mainly due to their special physical fitness-extraordinary mental power.

Being strong-willed has its advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it avoids Cui Yu's silent memory review and makes Zhang Jigang forget the conversation outside the bus, but he has not forgotten it.

The downside is that it's hard to forget things, and even healing won't help if you've been severely traumatized.

Tu Minglang really hoped that he could forget it, so that he would not subconsciously stop Cui Yu when he planned to repeat his old tricks and expose the facts he had hidden.

He could feel that Cui Yu had a deep obsession with the Zhang family boy. This obsession was beyond the scope of his understanding. It was like a powerful magic weapon that could erase the memory of its owner, but someone needed to restrain him.

Strong people often don't like to be restrained. This principle makes sense in any era.

But he can't explain it now.

Because Thirteen is angry, very angry.

And he had just stopped Thirteen, who was hiding his angry look, from clearing his master's memory again, just because of that sentence: I don't want to be your master.
