piecing together the soul

Chapter 25 21
"Xiuying!"

With Xiaohan's loud cry, I suddenly woke up, and the scene in front of me was unprecedentedly clear. The half-skeleton suddenly fell to the ground, and my hand, which was floating in the air, suddenly fell to the ground.A large group of souls jumped on the fallen bones. I was afraid that my arms would be occupied again, so I wanted to fight for them.

Before I could move, a piece of cinnabar with strong yang energy hit me, and the many ghosts who had tried their best to fight for the skeleton, all of them lost their souls immediately!Immediately afterwards, Xiao Han's figure flew past me and grabbed my arm like lightning. I even felt his hand grabbing my arm!
He squeezed a few more times, grabbed the scattered hand bones, and then shouted: "Go!"

I hurriedly retreated and followed him.

He put my arm in the backpack as he ran, and the walking corpses followed us, and the speed was just fast again!
Even while running, Xiao Han never forgot to scold me: "You really don't know the depth, you don't have any sense of defense! If I was three seconds late just now, you would definitely be blown out of your wits by that navy blue walking corpse." You dare to touch that kind of wraith! Do you think it’s that kid from our school who just died a year ago?”

"Can't I thank you for saving your life?" I followed his footsteps and said, "What are we going to do now? How did these guys follow so fast? Didn't they look like they were rusting just now?"

"Just pretend they just added oil." Xiao Han said, "How do I know what to do?"

Although he was in good health, after a while of tossing and running for a while, he was already panting.Suddenly there was a sound: "Ah! Ghost!"

According to my reputation, he is an old man, maybe a staff member of the Forbidden City?What he could see should be a group of skeletons walking. Such a sight was naturally terrifying, and he had already run away in the blink of an eye.

"What should we do?" I asked Xiaohan again, "It's not an option to run like this."

Xu Shi Xiaohan was afraid of attracting another person, so she lowered her voice, "Follow me closely!"

We have been running around the imperial garden, because those walking corpses have no brains and have been rampaging. At this time, there are already more than a dozen hanging on the tree branches and fences, and we are going back to the rockery where the bald man dug out the bones. That's it, Xiao Han didn't even say hello, she just jumped into the pothole, and I followed.

The bald body was still lying there.The strange thing is that he only dug such a small hole, how could there be such a large space here?

"What are you doing?" I asked.

Xiao Han didn't answer, but said half to herself: "If I'm not wrong..."

As he spoke, he first inserted the short stick in his hand into the soil, then pulled it out, and said with a smile, "Sure enough." Then he pulled out the engineering shovel tied to his right leg, and began to dig in the direction of the small hole just now. go.

"What are you going to do?" There were already walking corpses walking outside, "They are coming! It's too late if you don't go out!"

"It'll be ready soon!" Xiao Han said, putting more strength into her hands, and finally dug a few shovels, and knocked down with a "pong".

It turned out to be empty over there!I was surprised to see him knocking open the soil layer, but the sound outside was getting closer, so I had no time to think or ask, so I followed him and walked a few steps inside!

Xiao Han turned around and said, "Xiuying, get behind me, I'll deal with them."

"Do you want me to help you?"

Xiao Han's face was full of contempt: "I'll be thankful if you don't make trouble for me!"

Although I was not happy to hear what he said, I knew it was true, so I could only walk inside again.

This tunnel is very narrow, one person can move around, but two people standing side by side will feel crowded, it is a good place for us, at least let those walking corpses come over one by one and deal with them one by one.

But how did Xiaohan know about this place?
The walking corpses outside were really brainless, they squeezed and pinched for a long time before one of them finally went down into the pit and into the burrow.Xiao Han took out a short dagger from the left leggings, held the blade tightly in her left hand, and when the blood seeped out, she grabbed a handful of cinnabar from her waist pocket and hit it!The walking corpse fell to the ground, and the color attached to it disappeared instantly.

Another broken soul.

At this time, there was no second walking corpse coming in, Xiaohan took out the moxibustion strips from the waist pocket, and took out the matches from the jacket pocket. Seeing this, I hurried inside again, shouting as I ran: "Xu Xiaohan ! Are you dealing with them or with me?"

Xiaohan had already lit the moxa stick, threw it into the pothole where she came in, and replied to me: "Xiuying, please be patient, I will try my best to use it outside, if you are afraid, run inside, I will wait a while I'll just go find you!"

That kind of moxa strips was originally used for acupuncture and moxibustion. It is made of dried mugwort and kneaded into velvet. I have seen it when I was still alive, and I know that this thing is very good at warding off evil spirits. The first choice for exorcising ghosts.

I liked this thing very much back then, but now I'm a ghost and I'm afraid of these things that drive ghosts!I had no choice but to run a few steps inside.When I got to a similar place, I could still see the shadow on the other side of the cave entrance, at least I could see the walking corpse shrouded in dim light.It seems that walking corpses don't seem to be afraid of that thing. The smoked moxa strips should be to prevent other ghosts from coming in and attaching bones to become new walking corpses.

Xiaohan moved in and out, and while breaking up the ghosts, she poured some liquid on the bones on the ground. I think it should be something to ward off evil spirits, and further prevent other ghosts from entering.

Excluding the walking corpses hanging outside before, there are probably a dozen more.They came in one by one, and Xiao Han used all kinds of strange things to overturn them one by one and break them up.

Seeing such a large pile of bones, I finally understood why the bald man only dug such a small hole, but there was such a large space.That was the place where the bones were piled up, and those ghosts attached to the skeletons from that place full of bones, becoming walking corpses.

Seeing that there were no walking corpses outside the cave, Xiao Han ordered another moxa stick and threw it at the entrance of the cave, then turned around and called me: "Xiuying?"

"I'm here."

"I have to go out..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard voices outside!
