Mantra

Chapter 119

After listening to Li Douniu's story, I was surprised, but also genuinely afraid.

This incident about Li Douniu reminded me of the "Zhao Huo" that Zhao Shuihe said, and the historical facts of his "refining cat demon".

300 years ago, Zhao Huo decided to refine "Huowei Lian" in order to let the whole family survive the war safely.Members of the Zhao family once reminded him that this animal "uses it well to attract wealth and treasure, but if it is not used well, it will harm the whole family."

Obviously, Li Douniu didn't make good use of Huoweilian, and was killed by it instead.But as for the reason why he was useless, I can't guess, maybe it has a lot to do with the fact that he looked back at the cemetery.

So, relying on the existing information, I made up the process of Li Douniu's murder and the possible "truth" of the incident.

I think that Li Douniu should have been instructed by the "Taoist", and accidentally obtained the skill of "refining" Huoweilian from the Zhao family's grave. The "Huowei Lian" was refined according to the ancient method.But in the end, he failed to control the beast's animal nature, so he died.

And the Li Douniu I met today may be a wronged soul looking for a scapegoat, more likely it is the illusion of a cat demon or the old Taoist priest who asked him to use cats to relieve disasters.

Of course, this is just my speculation, and this speculation can only explain part of the problem in my mind.For the rest, I have to discuss with Zhao Shuihe, Zhao Haikun, and Xian Hongye.

After talking about the death of Li Douniu, the old village chief told me that after the death of his son Li Douniu, the cat with the shining tail became a tyrant in the village, and it probably killed many old people. Stealing things, no one can control, simply lawless.After Li Douniu died, his wife also took the child back to her natal home because of the cat, leaving only the village chief alone, and it was not easy.

As he spoke, the man in his 50s began to cry.

I watched him tear up and down, and was very passive for a while.

I was also very embarrassed, and at the same time, I also understood that this time I argued for the old squad leader, and my eagerness to defend me was self-defeating.

In the embarrassing situation, my uncle Zhao Haikun hurriedly rescued me, and said to the village head: "Young people talk nonsense, the village head don't take it to heart, my second child's funeral... just do it according to your wishes!"

"Enter the cemetery!" The old village chief snorted coldly and left quickly.

I looked at the figure of the village chief who was gradually going away, and felt a sense of loss in my heart.

Is it still necessary to go to the outer cemetery, the outer Zhao family cemetery where only sinners were buried in the past...

That night, we took the old monitor's body back to Zhao's house.

Because we were afraid that the old squad leader's body would be killed by wild cats and villains, the villagers and I changed a new coffin overnight and built the coffin early.

After that, Zhao Hong and I followed the rules here, using rooster blood to soak the coffin nails and nailing the coffin together.

At that time, I didn't say a word, I just took a last look at the squad leader's face, which was described as dry mud, and put a good black bowl on the squad leader's head according to the rules of the Wu Zang Temple, and concluded the coffin.

Afterwards, I wore sackcloth and filial piety, and guarded under the coffin with my uncle Zhao Haikun. No one dared to leave even half a step in fear.

But after a few hours, I found that my uncle was sitting in a wheelchair, staggering, and he couldn't hold on anymore.

Thinking about it, he is a disabled person. He has experienced a series of blows and accidents in the past few days, and he is already a bit exhausted.

So, I suggested that he go back to rest, I will reassure him, and my old squad leader will be buried tomorrow, so I need to save some energy to do things.

Zhao Haikun couldn't stand my reassurance, so he left. Before leaving, he told me not to bear a grudge against the Celestial Master.

Zhao Haikun told me with a nervous expression: "Master Duan Tian is a well-known yin and yang Taoist priest in Shirengu. He 'came out of the mountains and entered the market' a year ago. He has strong mana and has helped us resolve many disasters. He is a good man... ..."

I smiled and took his words as a gust of wind.

... In the middle of the night, Xian Hongye gave me a supper, and took this opportunity to have a long talk with me.

As soon as I came up, Xian Hongye warned me not to touch that Duan Tianshi rashly, because we have no evidence to prove anything.

Hongye said: "If you can't figure out his real purpose and bring him to justice, even if you beat him up, it's useless."

Yes!What good would it do if I could beat him half to death?
In addition, Xian Hongye also told me that besides Duan Tianshi, there must be other people who are planning on Zhao's family.

I asked him why he said that, and Hongye continued to tell me: "Do you still remember what I told you during the day, your old squad leader's fraudulent corpse is not an ordinary fraudulent corpse!"

Of course I do.

In the evening, at the critical moment when Zhao Shuihe and I were fighting "Dou Xin Pu", my old squad leader suddenly had a cat jumping corpse.

During the process of my old squad leader lifting up the corpse, Hongye reminded me that this is not as simple as a normal corpse fraud.

But what is the "not simple" method? Before I asked in detail, I was chased and ran all over the place by the fraudulent corpse.

The whole process is so bizarre and sad.

Therefore, when Xian Hongye mentioned her so-called "not simple" again, I couldn't help but prick up my ears and listen carefully.

At this time, Hongye whispered to me: "Don't you feel strange? Why does your squad leader have such explosive power and agility once you cheat the corpse? It's like coming back to life?"

Faced with these problems, I naturally did not understand, but after he reminded me, I also felt abnormal.

The so-called corpse fraud is just the release process of the remaining bioelectricity of the human body, and this process is actually very short.Ordinary deceitful corpses are the occasional twitching of the hands and legs. When it is severe, it is just a few mouthfuls. It is absolutely impossible to run fast, jump and laugh like my old squad leader. It is too abnormal. It is like resurrection. generally.

I don't understand, I urgently need Xian Hongye's answer.

After thinking about it for a while, Hongye told me, "I'm afraid your squad leader was plotted by someone before he was alive, and after his death, his body was manipulated."

Tricks?I was stunned and said, "Is there any evidence?"

Hongye shook her head in disappointment and said: "I also speculate, there is no direct evidence... After all, this involves a matter of gods and ghosts. But I have a hypothesis..."

During the conversation, Xian Hongye hypothesized: "I think...the manipulator was afraid that his crimes would be exposed after the corpse walked away, so he turned your squad leader's corpse into a mummified corpse. After all, the corpse has become like that, and many things cannot be seen. Out."

After listening to Xian Hongye's words, I nodded and squinted my eyes, recalling today's bizarre scenes.

I know that "these people" will never stop after the burial of my old squad leader. As long as I observe carefully, the behind-the-scenes black hands who have repeatedly fought against me and the Zhao family will soon surface...

The night is long...but the dawn will come.
