Mysterious Resurrection: Seize the Artifact

Chapter 307 A Different Sacrifice
"Huh? What's the matter with you?"

Walking into the courtyard, Lin Qian immediately saw Liu Qi and Wang Yi who were shivering on the chairs and huddled together.

The faces of these two people were pale, and the dark circles under their eyes were extremely heavy. It could be seen that it was the result of not sleeping all night last night.

Think about it too, who could fall asleep with the movement last night?Who has the guts to fall asleep?

Seeing Lin Qian came back, Liu Qi and Wang Yi stood up quickly as if they had seen the savior, and then said tremblingly:
"No one can be seen in the mirror, and there is obviously no water in the water tank, but after a while, there will be the sound of splashing water."

"There is obviously nothing on the beams, but we just heard something shaking there... This... There are still some problems, and there are many weird things."

"We're both scared, so... so..."

Lin Qian looked at the trembling two people, thought for a while, nodded and said:
"Well, it's understandable, but don't worry, it's just some ghosts."

Lin Qian walked to the stone table and sat down, observing the situation of Tian Yunxiao and the three of them.

The situation is not bad, Li Gui has died, the balance is being established, and he can wake up tomorrow at the most.

Glancing at Ke Ke, the little girl was learning to fly with a white cat in her arms.

The plane was naturally the little white cat. Looking at the little cat holding a peach in its paw, Lin Qian silently looked away.

Hearing Lin Qian's words, Liu Qi and Wang Yi turned even paler. They couldn't help but look at their room, thought for a while and sat back on the stone chair.

They felt that by Lin Qian's side, they had a great chance of surviving.

Lin Qian didn't care, and looked up at the sky, it was getting dark again.

The time here seems to be very strange, sometimes it is long, and sometimes it is short, such as yesterday, the time yesterday was a little longer, and it was nine o'clock in the afternoon when it was dark.

When it was dawn, it was twelve o'clock at noon.

It's dark today at seven o'clock in the afternoon, there is no pattern, it is very chaotic.

The light of the sky disappeared quickly, and the night began to vent its emotions.

Black clouds rolled over the moonlight, knocking on the door, scratching, footsteps and faint shouts also sounded at the same time.

Lin Qian turned her head to look at the wall. The little girl was already standing on the wall, staring down at everyone in the yard.

There is hatred in the eyes, and the distorted face is very permeating.

Liu Qi and Wang Yi hugged each other on the spot, and their bodies began to tremble involuntarily.

Lin Qian looked calmly, playing with the bride's hands, and occasionally tidying up the bride's skirt.

Very leisurely, it can be seen that he doesn't care about these things.

Although the movement is a bit annoying, as long as you can't hear it.

He looked at Ke Ke, um, Ke Ke was not affected at all, the little girl ran to the corner of the wall with the little white cat in her arms, and looked up at the little girl.

"Dad, why does this young lady stand so tall, and why does she look so delicious!"

Ke Ke looked back at Lin Qian, and asked with some doubts.

"You say this, maybe she thinks the scenery above is good, as for why she looks so delicious, because she can't eat it." Lin Qian said with a smile.

Hearing Dad's explanation, Ke Ke nodded, thinking about it is also the same reason:
"It seems like hey, it's delicious because you can't eat it."

Coco wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth, then walked back with some reluctance.

Lin Qian didn't continue talking, and concentrated on arranging the skirt for the bride.

Both Liu Qi and Wang Yi were numb, and they were trembling there, not even daring to lift their heads.

The knock on the door continued, but this time the knock on the door was obviously a bit weird. It sounded like someone was knocking on the door instead of someone outside.

The sound of scratching the door was the same, but the sound of footsteps was more intensive, and they all lingered in front of the door.

Lin Qian also noticed this change, so it can be seen that this is the change Liu Meng said.

I have to say, it's really interesting, at least Lin Qian thinks so.

The bride's wedding dress slipped through Lin Qian's hands, it was smooth and delicate, and the bride leaned quietly on Lin Qian's body, very peaceful and serene.

Ke Ke sat on the stone chair, lying on the stone table, watching the little white cat eating the big peach bite by bite, the small eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and the little feet dangling slightly, looking very happy.

It took a long time, and the night began to reveal its power. At this moment, Lin Qian froze slightly when he straightened the bride's skirt. After thinking about it, he stopped and turned to look at Tian Yunxiao and the others.

The red cocoon shook slightly, the red line began to disappear, and Tian Yunxiao opened his eyes first.

He raised his arm for a closer look, then laughed:
"Is it a ghost in a dream, Team Lin, your methods are really terrifying."

Tian Yunxiao pushed his glasses, with a smile in his eyes.

"Looking at you, I feel pretty good. What are the chances of becoming a different kind this time?"

Lin Qian stretched out his hand to grab the water drop that flitted out from between Tian Yunxiao's eyebrows, and said.

"Well, it's hard to say, I guess there is a [-]-[-]% chance." Tian Yunxiao thought for a while and said.

"Is that so? It's not too low." Lin Qian said.

It is not so easy to become a different kind. He Tian Yunxiao is confident that he can have a [-]-[-]% chance, which shows that he is very sure.

Tian Yunxiao smiled and said nothing, looked around and frowned:

"It can be seen that there are quite a lot of ghosts, why don't I deal with them?"

But at this point, Tian Yunxiao shook his head again and said:

"I don't think so. Team Lin hasn't moved anything. I guess it will be the same result."

After speaking, Tian Yunxiao smiled and sat next to Liu Qi, cast a glance at the ghost standing on the courtyard wall, ignored it, and looked at the white cat on the table with interest.

Lin Qian smiled, smart guy.

Tian Yunxiao was the first to come out, this is not surprising, he was already much stronger than Xu Qingxiao and Song Yu.

However, since Tian Yunxiao has come out, Xu Qingxiao and Song Yu should be there soon.

"Old Tian, ​​you?" Liu Qi looked at Tian Yunxiao hesitantly, not sure if he was Tian Yunxiao.

After all, the temperament of the two is one above the other, and Tian Yunxiao used to be polite, with the appearance of a scholar who is knowledgeable and reasonable.

And now Tian Yunxiao looks extremely confident, with a smile in his eyes from time to time, and a strange temperament on his body, like an elegant...fox?
Liu Qi was a little unclear whether the person in front of him was Tian Yunxiao or his classmate.

"What's wrong?" Tian Yunxiao turned to look at Liu Qi.

Looking at Tian Yunxiao's warm smile, Liu Qi shuddered:
"No, it's nothing, I just feel that you seem to be different."

Tian Yunxiao smiled, and didn't pay much attention to it. He turned his head and continued to stare at the terrifying white cat.

This is the horror of Captain Lin's family. This white cat can easily kill him, but now this white cat is sitting on the table obediently, holding a peach and gnawing there. .

And he was very gentle with that little girl.

Seeing that Tian Yunxiao was not interested in talking, Liu Qi wisely stopped talking nonsense.

He also knew that Tian Yunxiao, who came out of the red cocoon, was no longer from the same world as him.

He understands.

But he didn't care about these things, he felt a little more at ease with someone he knew by his side, at least he didn't have to be so trembling.

Lin Qian looked at the red cocoons of Xu Qingxiao and Song Yu, without speaking, as time passed slowly, one hour after Tian Yunxiao came out.

The red cocoons of Xu Qingxiao and Song Yu began to disappear at the same time, and they appeared in everyone's eyes in the blink of an eye.

"Zuzu, not bad, exactly the same."

Xu Qingxiao touched a twisted black line on his skin, and grinned at the corner of his mouth, revealing a weird smile.

Song Yu looked at the black skin on his body, frowned, and then a ghost appeared, the skin began to change color, and there was a sound of flesh and blood tearing.

A piece of human skin suddenly appeared in the air. Song Yu smiled and stretched out his hand to wear the human skin. This was her original skin, but it was covered by the ghost skin.

But now, she peeled off this layer of skin and wore it on the outside.

"It looks comfortable this way. How decent is it to be so dark?" Song Yu muttered.

Seeing this scene, Liu Qi shrank his pupils, swallowed, and felt a chill down his spine.

It seems that his classmates are not human anymore...

"Why are there so many ghosts here?" Xu Qingxiao frowned, looked around, his eyes thoughtful.

"It's just a ghost." Song Yu stared straight at Lin Qian, but when she saw the bride in Lin Qian's arms, she looked away.

Lin Qian looked at Song Yu with a playful smile:

"Want my skin?"

Hearing Lin Qian's words, Song Yu smiled, neither denying nor admitting.

Lin Qian didn't care too much, there was someone who could peel off his skin, but it wouldn't be Song Yu.

"You three, after going out, go to Dajiang City. There are not enough people there." Lin Qian said.

"Well, yes." Tian Yunxiao nodded.

"That's no problem." Xu Qingxiao nodded with a smile.

"Okay." Song Yu nodded.

Lin Qian didn't say anything, and looked up at the sky. It was twelve o'clock in the morning, and the night was fading away.

The sky began to turn white, and the golden sun was rising, and it was dawn.

And at this time, the sound of knocking on the door, scratching the door, footsteps, and the ghost standing on the wall all disappeared, just in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, the knock on the door sounded again, and the voice of the old village chief appeared:

"The sacrificial activity will start soon. Those who want to participate in the sacrificial ceremony can gather under the old locust tree."

Lin Qian knocked on the table, and Huang Hui who fell to the ground suddenly opened her eyes and stood up.

Then he opened the door and walked out. The old village head nodded to Huang Hui with a smile and said:
"Good boy, go, this sacrifice, I will take you to meet the spirit officer."

Hearing what the old village chief said, a smile appeared on Huang Hui's face:

"Really! Thank you, old village chief! Thank you, old village chief!"

Huang Hui repeatedly bowed to the old village head and thanked him.

The old village head just smiled, then stared at Lin Qian and the others, the smile on his face disappeared slightly:

"Young man, I advise you to participate in the sacrifice, otherwise, I can't guarantee your safety."

"The villagers are already very dissatisfied with you. If you are still stubborn, it's better to blame us for not reminding you in advance. Young man, don't say that you are not predicting!"

After speaking, the old village chief gave Lin Qian and the others a cold look, then turned around and left with Huang Hui.

Lin Qian looked at the back of the old village chief with a calm expression.

There was a smile in Tian Yunxiao's eyes, staring at the old village chief without saying a word.

"Captain Lin, can this old man be killed?" Xu Qingxiao asked.

"Why are you so murderous? It won't be too late until I get his skin off." Song Yu stroked his arm with a smile on his face.

Lin Qian rolled his eyes at the two people, didn't pay much attention, and said lightly:
"Sacrifice cannot be killed."

Hearing this, Tian Yunxiao was a little stunned, Xu Qingxiao was a little disappointed, and Song Yu was extremely indifferent.

"Is that so? Forget it." Song Yu said.

Lin Qian didn't care, she came to the roof of the second floor with a flicker, and looked in the direction of the old pagoda tree.

It was still like yesterday, each and every one of the villagers knelt quietly to the ground, chanting obscure sacrificial rites, listening carefully, one could find that today’s rites seemed to be different from yesterday’s.

The old locust tree is always the same, and the leaves are swaying, which is the same as driving the wooden sign below.

The old village chief walked slowly through the crowd, walked to the old locust tree, and knelt down, just like yesterday.

As soon as the old village head appeared, everyone stopped chanting and waited for the old village head to take the lead.

The old locust tree swayed unsteadily, Lin Qian squinted his eyes, he wanted to see what the sacrificial rites were for today.

Tian Yunxiao looked up at Lin Qian, thinking about it and didn't go up to join in the fun.

Xu Qingxiao wanted to go up, but unfortunately, being stared at by a pair of green eyes, he didn't dare to move, and Song Yu was the same.

But suddenly, the faces of the three of them changed slightly, and the three of them looked at each other, and they all knew that something was wrong.

They looked up one after another, only to see that Lin Qian's body began to flash green and red continuously, and his whole body seemed to be unreal.

At the same time, one, or not one, but a group of people's chanting sounded in their ears.

"Yu Lan Tang Xi Mu Fang, Hua Caiyi Xi Ruoying, Ling Lian curled up while staying, death is clearly visible and Wei Young."

"Jian Jiang is in the palace of longevity, and the sun and the moon are in the same light, the dragon is driving the emperor's clothes, and the chat is in the Zhouzhang."

"Since the Emperor Ling has descended, he has moved far away and is in the clouds. He has more than enough to see Jizhou, and he has enough to travel across the world."

"Thinking of my husband, I take a deep breath, and my heart is heavy with exhaustion."

Tian Yunxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and slowly spit out a sentence:

"Nine Songs, Lord Yunzhong."

"What are they sacrificing? Why would they use this?" Xu Qingxiao frowned, somewhat puzzled.

Song Yu looked at Lin Qian solemnly, his eyes flickered slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Lin Qian had some doubts in his eyes, and looked in the direction of the old locust tree:

"Mr. Yunzhong? Today is Mr. Yunzhong? Are they all Jiuge?"

Lin Qian is very strange:
"Sacrificing mountain ghosts, offering sacrifices to Daze? What exactly are they offering sacrifices to?"

At this moment, after the old village chief finished reciting the sacrificial oration, everyone fell silent.

The old village head stood up slowly, with a solemn expression:
"Sacred ceremony!"

The words blurted out, and suddenly the old locust tree shook suddenly, with a plop, the wind chime sounded again, and the two black wooden signs fell off, and the old village chief took them into his hands.

The old village chief looked at the wooden sign in his hand, nodded, and then shouted:
"Sacrifice!"

The voice was as solemn and solemn as the face of the old village chief.

As the voice fell, seven or eight big men in coarse linen clothes and red masks appeared.

They carried two red lacquer coffins onto the altar, and one of the coffins shook slightly, as if something was struggling inside.

Everyone saw this scene, but no one cared. Instead, their faces were full of envy.

The coffin was placed on the altar just like yesterday. There was a scratching sound coming from one of the coffins, and there was a faint cry, as if it was a woman's voice.

But no one cared, the old village chief walked up to the altar with two sticks of black incense, and inserted the black incense into the incense burner. The black smoke swirled around in the air, and then went straight into the two coffins.

Seeing this scene, the old village chief withdrew from the altar expressionlessly.

"The sacrificial offering has been opened, and I hope the gods will make a ceremony!"

The old village head shouted, then took the lead and knelt down, kowtowed and saluted just like yesterday.

咚

Everyone kowtowed for the first time.

"Licheng! Exit!"

The old village head stood up, turned around and walked outside. When he passed through the crowd, everyone gave way, as if they were respecting a god.

The old village chief walked calmly, but suddenly he turned his head and looked in one direction, which was the direction where Lin Qian was standing.

With an indifferent expression, he exchanged a glance with Lin Qian and left the crowd.

Qinghong began to disappear, and the restart was over. Lin Qian looked at all this calmly.

The old locust tree is still the old locust tree, and the sacrifices are still sacrifices, but today's sacrifices and sacrificial texts have changed.

The rest remained unchanged, the sacrificial ceremony was still held normally, and Lin Qian still did not attend the sacrificial ceremony.

"Interesting place."

Lin Qian came down from the roof, returned to the yard, rolled his eyes at Tian Yunxiao and the three of them said indifferently:
"Find a room by yourself."

"Okay." Tian Yunxiao pushed his glasses, then got up and went to find the room.

Both Xu Qingxiao and Song Yu smiled and said nothing, the same.

As long as Liu Qi and Wang Yi are still shivering.

Lin Qian didn't care, and sat down on the stone chair, recalling in his mind what happened when the starved ghost entered the sacrificial activity just now.

Just now he let the starving ghost quietly walk under the old locust tree, and the result was very strange. Before the sacrifice started, it was quiet, peaceful, and there was nothing weird about it.

But when the sacrificial activities started, all the starved ghosts died in an instant, and then returned to their original bodies.

Recalling the situation at that time, Lin Qian can be sure that he did not find the slightest spiritual fluctuation, not even a little bit.

The starving ghost is like being attacked out of thin air, that feeling.

"It's like an attack from the past, there's no way to avoid it, and you can't feel it."

Lin Qian tapped the table lightly:

"In the past? If that's the case, there will be some trouble."

Looking around, thinking of the ghost on the courtyard wall, Lin Qian's eyes were deep:
"If it really existed in the past, then many things would make sense."

"It's no wonder I can't find a ghost. It turns out that these things are not at a certain point in time for me."

"If this is the case, then I have a solution, but I still have to confirm it. If I guess wrong, it's a big joke."

Thinking of this, Lin Qian began to plan. He had to find a way to determine whether the source ghost of Lingcoffin Village was really in the past time, and if so, where was this time point.

He can't just go there recklessly. If the past is restarted, God knows when it will appear. When the supernatural collides, no one knows what will happen.

"I have to try. If it doesn't work, then wait for the end of the sacrifice. The ghost will eat it after it comes out."

"It's only seven days, not too long." Lin Qian thought.

And at this moment, the old village head opened the door and walked in alone.
