My master is the coffin

Chapter 165 The Palace
A few of us talked about it.The skinny man is absolutely indispensable for finding out that he was able to escape safely this time.After this kid escaped, he used all he had learned in his life, tied up a few paper figurines, and used up his own soul to rescue us.Although our bodies are left below, it is very rare for our souls to return to the human world.

Zhi Zha Wu said with a displeased face: "You kid wanted to save me, and you didn't say anything in advance, but two hands suddenly appeared, scaring me to death."

The thin man looked pale: "Master, you should forget about it, I almost lost half my life to save you."

I asked the thin man, "Where's Wen Yu? Why didn't you rescue her?"

The thin man gave a wry smile: "Wen Yu is not here. Xu You, it's not that I'm gossiping behind my back, we might have really been tricked this time."

I stood up and said to the thin man, "Our bodies can't stay underground all the time. Thin man, why don't you dig us out?"

The thin man waved his hand: "Xu You, what are you kidding? It's so dangerous down here. If I dig out your bodies and start attacking me, can I guard against it?"

I said dissatisfiedly: "Then what should we do? Have we always been lonely ghosts?"

The thin man sighed: "You guys, let me take it easy. I'll find a way to dig you out when the rooster crows and the yang energy is strong."

When the thin man said that, we felt relieved.Start sitting on the ground and resting.

Only then did I have time to look here.I found this place to be very strange. There are many stone tablets erected, but there are no tombs.

I looked at those steles, it was written that someone in a certain place was buried here in what year.These people come from all over the world, and there are people everywhere.And the strange thing is that there are only tombstones, but no graveheads.

I sat down and said silently: "It looks like this is a mass grave."

I glanced at the sloppy Taoist priest sitting next to me, and asked, "Your master said that I saw the family who lied to you here. Could it be the guy who drove the tricycle just now?"

The sloppy Taoist shook his head: "It's not him. I remember the family who lied to me clearly. Even after so many years, I can't forget it."

I thought for a while and said, "The family should be nearby. After dawn, let's dig out the body and follow along to have a look."

The sloppy Taoist priest agreed, and then said, "However, I remember that Master's soul was in a mess when it came back. I'm a little worried that the village might be in danger."

The thin man also stood up, nodded and said, "I think so too. Although the body of the sloppy Taoist priest's master is rotten, he is still a body. He shouldn't throw it away casually. It doesn't make sense for the soul to leave after it escapes. But he didn't dig out his body later, I was worried that something happened in the middle."

As soon as the thin man uttered these words, my heart trembled.If there were any accidents, then, if the old man could leave his body here, that thing must have the ability to let us leave our bodies.

I'm starting to worry now.I suspect the skinny ones wouldn't necessarily be able to dig our bodies out even at dawn.

At this moment, Wushuang suddenly whispered: "Someone came and hid behind a tombstone."

The few of us did not dare to neglect, and hid one after another.Then, there was a sound of footsteps ahead.Hearing this voice, it seemed that many people had come.

I slowly poked my head out from behind the tombstone and glanced in that direction.

A lot of people came, they looked like the surrounding villagers.

These villagers didn't bring flashlights or light torches, and they walked over in the dark step by step.The starlight was dim, not enough to see their faces clearly.

We hid behind the stele, not daring to take a breath.

However, strangely enough, they seemed to know where we were hiding.Groups of three and four surrounded us, trapping us in the middle.

At this time, I suddenly discovered that they were not real people, but ghosts.These ghosts looked at us expressionlessly, and then let out a threatening growl from the inside, as if asking us to obey them.

Suddenly, the sloppy Taoist priest beside me shouted: "I know you. You were the one who killed me and my master back then."

Then, he suddenly threw himself at a human ghost.Soon, the two of them were fighting together.

The ghost was tall and strong.Although the sloppy Taoist priest is thin and small, but fortunately he used to be a cultivator, and a mahogany sword helped a lot.

These two people were fighting together, and the ghosts around them didn't move, so we didn't dare to move, and watched them one-on-one.

Sloppy Taoist priests used to be our enemies, but along the way, this hostility has slowly dissipated.What's more, now that we have the same enemy, we should fight side by side.

However, it's not that we don't want to go up and help.We know that as long as we move, the dozens of ghosts around us will move upon hearing the news.When the time comes to melee, we may not necessarily win.

These ghosts don't know what's going on, it seems that there is some special way to resist the attack of the mahogany sword.Several times, I saw the sloppy Taoist's sword piercing the ghost's chest.However, the ghost did not fly away.Instead, he just took two steps back while clutching his chest.Then it jumped up again.

Ten minutes later, there seemed to be a leader among these ghosts, and he waved his hand impatiently.Then, those ghosts swarmed up and ran towards the sloppy Taoist priest.

At this time, we can no longer sit idly by.Then one piece joined the fight.

In actual fighting, I found that these ghosts were more difficult to deal with than I thought.The mahogany sword did very little damage to them, and they were almost invincible.They even form a circle, and they can catch me by exhausting my strength.

After ten minutes, we failed without any suspense.Caught by these ghosts, and then slowly walked outside.

Wushuang was still talking angrily: "If my body is here, what can you brats do to me?"

There was a wry smile in my heart: Who doesn't know this truth?If we hadn't lost our bodies, a ghost-suppressing talisman could have suppressed these ghosts, but they made it clear that they were waiting for us.They came out to catch us when our bodies were gone and our Taoism was gone.

Thinking of this, I followed my words and saw that the thin man was also caught by these ghosts.Can't help being very surprised: "Skinny man, your body is in good shape, why did you get caught?"

The thin man's face was pale and he looked very weak. He smiled wryly: "Just now, I spent half my life trying to save you. Don't talk about catching ghosts, even if you don't have the energy to escape."

I sighed and thought to myself: Just listen to it.

We don't know why these ghosts want to catch us.What is the purpose of taking us away.We kept questioning these ghosts along the way.But none of them said a word.

When I saw these expressionless ghosts, I couldn't help thinking: "Do they have thinking? What do I think they are puppets on strings?"

After we walked out of the mass graves, we were quickly escorted to the village.This village is obviously the one we saw before.

At this time, I was even a little curious in my heart.We have been to this village entrance no less than three or four times, but we have never walked in.I suddenly wanted to know what was in this village.

As they approached the village entrance, the villagers suddenly became respectful.They started forming a long line, and then walked slowly into the village.

We passed through the outermost houses.These houses are very ordinary, common bungalows in the north.

Then we turned a corner, and the vision suddenly opened up.I saw a palace in the middle of the village.This palace is not high, but it is very beautifully built.The circle of bungalows outside seemed to be deliberately covering up, enclosing the palace in the very center.

We were escorted to the main entrance of the palace, and those ghosts held us down on the ground.

I raised my head with difficulty.I saw a woman slowly coming out of the palace.She looked at us indifferently, and then said lightly: "Lock it outside first." After saying such a sentence, she walked lightly into the palace and never showed up again.

Those little ghosts picked us up, and it seemed that they wanted to follow the woman's order and lock us up.

Only then did I realize that there was a copper cast standing beside the palace, with a row of copper rings cast on it.These bronze statues are specially used to lock ghosts.After we were locked on it, we couldn't move any more.I can only obediently hang on it.

Those little devils have dispersed.Go back to the house.And the few of us were hung on the copper ring with innocent faces.

I sighed and asked in vain: "Several, do you have any way to escape?"

The rest were silent.Only the thin man sighed: "You guys wait for me to slow down. When I slow down, maybe you can save everyone."

I asked him, "How long are you going to wait?"

The thin man said: "Not too long, just let me sleep and have a rest." Then he stopped talking.

At this time, I suddenly felt a little strange. Usually Wushuang always has endless things to say, but today I don't know why, but I didn't say a word.I asked her: "What's wrong with you? Why don't you talk?"

Wushuang said quietly: "Xu You, I feel as if I have been here before."

I looked at her strangely: "Have you been here?"

Wushuang nodded, and said with a blank face: "This place gives me a feeling of deja vu. I must have never seen these houses, but I always feel that this place is very familiar."

Zhi Zha Wu analyzed from the side: "There must be something you have seen before, and it appeared here today, so it makes you feel familiar."

Wushuang nodded, then looked around blankly: "What is it? I can't remember it at all."
