The Witch of Xiangxi

Chapter 215 Water Ghost Deceiving
Xia Xiangxi had sharp eyes and saw the grass on the roadside moving for no reason. At first she thought it was a whirlwind, so she asked Shi Wei to stop and wait for the whirlwind to pass before they walked.

However, when they stopped, the wind stopped moving.Xia Xiangxi felt that something was wrong, so he took out the Yinming mirror and looked at the grass over there, and saw a series of strange footprints, or they should not be considered footprints, but more like some grass roots stained on the grass blades.She frowned, and immediately took a closer look at it, and saw a light green figure that looked like a human figure, "swish" across, and soon disappeared.

It's not a ghost, it's a demon!
Shi Wei looked at Xia Xiangxi and took the Yinming mirror again, and said: "Don't use that mirror all the time, psychic things are harmful to us, and if you use it too much, it will absorb the yang energy from your body. When you find the shadow of Huanhuan, when she can't stand it, it's not too late to find her with that mirror! There are so many ghosts in this world, and there are many things that don't need to be taken care of. If you look at them with that mirror, it will be too late. If it’s too much of a business, ghosts have their own ways, as long as they don’t hurt people or kill them, it’s not up to us to take care of them! If we take care of them too much, we’ll do it for them, or even annoy those ghosts!”

Xia Xiangxi nodded, knowing that what Shi Wei said made sense.He took away the Yinming mirror.

The two continued to walk, and when they passed a village, there was an old locust tree at the head of the village.Xia Xiangxi looked at the locust tree, which looked hundreds of years old no matter what.The locust tree is originally the ghost king tree among the ghost trees. A hundred-year-old locust tree has already matured, and a centuries-old locust tree is even more extraordinary.As soon as I walked under the locust tree, I felt very cloudy. Fortunately, this tree was outside the village. If it was inside the village, then the people in that village would definitely not be safe.

Shi Wei said that she had known the king of this pagoda tree for a long time, and said that this old pagoda tree had a history of hundreds of years. It was said that Zhu Yuanzhang had rested under this pagoda tree before he became emperor in the Ming Dynasty.Whether it is true or not, there is no way to investigate, anyway, the name of "Ghost Tree King" is quite loud.When the Japanese invaded China, they killed many people under this tree. After killing, they hung their bodies or heads on this old locust tree.Later, in the special cultural period in China, under the old pagoda tree, I don’t know how many people ended their good years with a straw rope.

It is said that one year, someone thought that the branches of the old pagoda tree were low and blocked the road, so he wanted to cut off half of the tree's head. The axe, Sa Yazi ran home, was so frightened that he fell seriously ill and almost died.After that, no one dared to touch the old pagoda tree again.People became afraid of the king of locust tree, which increased the evil spirit of the tree.There are always people who die inexplicably under this old locust tree. There is no wound on the body. Not only is the face of the deceased not ferocious and terrifying, but it seems that he had a dream and died with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Shi Wei and Shi Wei's father were once invited to catch ghosts and eliminate demons, but they couldn't figure it out either.Under the old locust tree, apart from feeling extremely cloudy, there was not even half a ghost to be summoned.It seems that this old locust tree has become a spirit, killing people and eating their souls.

"So powerful?" Xia Xiangxi frowned, and took a careful look at the old locust tree.She also wanted to use the Yinming mirror to see if the old locust tree was haunted by ghosts, or if the old locust tree had become a spirit and was blocked by Shi Wei.

"One more thing is worse than one less thing! No one begs us. If you take care of your business, no one will say hello to you, or bring us disasters for nothing. My father can't find out the details of this old locust tree. It can be seen that What a powerful ghost king tree! You and I are not very high-minded, don’t let yourself be meddled in your own business, and put yourself in the water to be boiled! At that time, how can you protect your grandfather? How about honoring his old man? "

Shi Wei's last sentence made Xia Xiangxi immediately stop being nosy.Grandpa is such an important person to Xia Xiangxi, she naturally doesn't want to cause disaster for no reason and let herself suffer, just like what Shi Wei said, there is no way to protect grandpa, honor grandpa!
Shi Wei said that there is a bus in this village that goes to Phoenix City, so they don't have to go on foot anymore. They can get off on the way to Phoenix City by bus and transfer to Xiaomiao Village, which shortens the travel time a lot. I can go to Xiaomiao Village.

Xia Xiangxi nodded, saying that she would follow Shi Wei's opinion.

When he walked to the small bridge at the entrance of the village, Xia Xiangxi heard something was wrong under the bridge, as if there was a woman calling for help.She turned her head and looked under the bridge. The water in the small river seemed to be very deep. A head with long hair appeared on the surface of the water. The strands of hair were floating in the water like water plants. The woman kept struggling, but fell into the water. It sinks deeper and deeper.

Someone is drowning!Xia Xiangxi yelled at Shi Wei, took off her coat and shoes quickly and jumped into the water without thinking.Shi Wei was also unambiguous, and also lightened her burden, jumping into the water to save people.

Xia Xiangxi also jumped into the water, and only then did he feel something was wrong.The water was extraordinarily cold, and it was noon on such a hot day, so the water temperature should be the highest in the day, but as soon as he entered the water, Xia Xiangxi felt as if he had fallen into a hole in the ice, his body couldn't bear the severe cold, and suddenly convulsed.A mass of water grass still surrounded Xia Xiangxi's feet, as if someone was dragging at the bottom of the water, and suddenly pulled Xia Xiangxi's body to the bottom of the water.

Shi Wei who jumped into the water for the second time also suffered the same fate.Both girls knew they had been tricked and were bewitched by the water ghost.

After Xia Xiangxi realized it, he reacted, and immediately recited in his heart the Heavenly Master Mantra, which is designed to destroy the harm caused by evil methods and sorcery: "Mao Ti Mao Ti, Meng and the princes. The upper end is Hua Jue, and the lower end is Jiuzhou. Wearing a golden crown and armor clothes The teeth are like sharp swords, and the hands are like golden hooks. When you encounter evil, you will cut them off, and when you encounter tigers, you will capture them. Strong ghosts will beheaded, and living ghosts will not be left behind. The aquatic plants that bound Xia Xiangxi disappeared immediately.

Shi Wei was choked with water, so she didn't have time to recite some life-saving spells.After Xia Xiangxi broke free, he immediately read aloud to Shi Wei: "The Supreme Lord, let me be with you. Calling on the jade girl, it is auspicious to take in. Climbing rocks and wearing a seal. Wearing a canopy on your head, and walking on your feet , Fu Liujia on the left, and Liuding on the right. There is the Yellow God in the front, and the Yuezhang in the back. The god master kills, does not avoid the powerful, first kills the evil spirits, and then kills the night light. What gods do not subdue, what ghosts dare to be? law."

The spell is over.Shi Wei was also out of danger, and the two girls swam to the river bank with lingering fear.Lying on the grass on the embankment, panting heavily.

After Shi Wei regained her strength a little bit, she jumped up angrily, pointed at the water and cursed at the water ghost who didn't open her eyes, which actually hurt her and Xia Xiangxi.

Xia Xiangxi said to Shi Wei: "This is not an easy matter!" She suspected that Huanhuan was acting as a hindrance, otherwise, even if there were water ghosts in the small river, it would not be so coincidental to know that she and Shi Wei had passed by, and came out to lure her. Lead them into the water.

Shi Wei also agrees with Xia Xiangxi's conjecture. She had no grievances with Huanhuan at first, but now Huanhuan even hurts her, so she is not simply helping Xia Xiangxi, but Huanhuan has become her and Huanhuan. Xia Xiangxi's common enemy.

Shi Wei gritted her teeth and said, "I have to catch that ghost so that its soul won't be wiped out. My surname is not Shi!"

However, when Xia Xiangxi used the Yinming mirror to look for Huanhuan's footprints, she didn't see Huanhuan's footprints, but saw the suspicious traces she had seen before, like muddy grass roots falling on the ground. Mark of!
Isn't Huanhuan playing tricks?Xia Xiangxi was puzzled for a while.That line of strange traces extended all the way to the village.Xia Xiangxi and Shi Wei tracked to the entrance of the village, and saw a handsome man walking from a street.Seeing Xia Xiangxi and Shi Wei, the two drowned chickens, either out of doubt or out of kindness, he asked Xia Xiangxi and Shi Wei why they were in such a mess.

Shi Wei scolded and said, "I'm so unlucky, I met in the river..." When she said this, Xia Xiangxi hurriedly interrupted Shi Wei, and said to the young man with a smile, "I accidentally fell into the river." Already!"

The man showed sympathy, and called Shi Wei's name instead, asking Shi Wei and Xia Xiangxi to go to his house together and find some dry clothes to change into.

Xia Xiangxi heard the man call out Shi Wei's name, and then realized that the man had known Shi Wei.

Shi Wei said that the man's name was Ji Xu, she was her middle school classmate, and he lived in the front and back villages, quite close, and they always played together after school, just like close buddies.Later, Ji Xu married a daughter-in-law early and had a housekeeper, so he broke off contact with these old classmates.

Ji Xu's face turned slightly red, and Xia Xiangxi realized that this Ji Xu was extremely white, even whiter than her and Shi Wei.In addition, he is also extremely handsome, Xia Xiangxi sighed in his heart, did Jia Baoyu in the Dream of the Red Chamber look like this when he was born?
Ji Xu originally focused his attention on Shi Wei, but when he noticed that Xia Xiangxi was looking at him, he turned his attention. When his eyes fell on Xia Xiangxi's face, those eyes were like a stone thrown into the originally calm and innocent place. Immediately there were countless ripples in the turbulent lake water.

Shi Wei saw that Ji Xu looked at Xia Xiangxi in a dazed way, so she coughed twice, and Ji Xu regained his composure, his fair face turned even redder because of Shi Wei's semi-sulphured eyes.He hurriedly said: "Don't delay, go to my house! If you don't change your wet clothes, you will catch a cold!"

Shi Wei hummed twice inexplicably, and she didn't know why.Anyway, Xia Xiangxi saw the ugly curl of Shi Wei's mouth!

Not far away, he arrived at Ji Xu's house.As soon as Xia Xiangxi walked to the gate, he realized something was wrong, immediately frowned, and exchanged glances with Shi Wei, Shi Wei returned her indifferent look, as if saying what to be afraid of?After that, Xia Xiangxi walked into Ji Xu's house step by step.
