Chapter 536 Past Events in Xiangjiang (17)
"I lost..." Afa held the candle in his hand and walked anxiously towards the direction of the laughter. He murmured to himself: "Why It's a candle... give me a flashlight Is that okay? Candles are really useless..."
Because he had to protect the flame of the candle, Afa took very slow steps at this time, for fear that if he took a slightly larger step, he would destroy the candle. The flames were extinguished.
And there are dark clouds in the sky tonight, and there is no moonlight at all. Only the dim light of candles can illuminate the area around him, and further away there is only a faint shadow. The pressure on him increased, and he tried to look back. The light on the other side of the altar was completely invisible.
"Oh, by the way, we can't look back..." Afa quickly turned his head, waited for a while and found that nothing happened, so he murmured: "It's okay, okay, the master should have said... The child didn’t look back when he came out. I haven’t been targeted by the ghost yet... Guan Erye bless me.”
He took a deep breath and continued walking forward.
The silver bell-like laughter of those children was getting closer and closer, making his palms start to sweat. But when he had reached the source of the laughter, the laughter suddenly disappeared, and the surroundings were filled with chaos. It was dead silent, but Ah Fa's body was stiff. At this moment, he seemed to feel that there were many eyes around him looking at him.
"What the hell...what should I do next?" Afa thought for a moment, then tried to raise and lower his legs, swaying from side to side, and shouted nonchalantly: "Drive the train La~The train is about to leave, toot~"
It was a bit shameful to do this, but fortunately there was no one around (except for two onlookers who were laughing evilly). He imitated the sound of the whistle and protected it with his hands. The candle began to sway forward in the open space, its legs constantly lifting and lowering.
After walking for a while, a pair of young, pale arms suddenly rested on his shoulders, making his body stiff for a moment. He couldn't figure out how those children with their height could put their hands flat on his shoulders, but he didn't dare to look back.
"Here comes one!" Afa's teeth were trembling, but he still held back his fear and shouted: "Dudu~ The train is starting, kids, come and play." Then he continued to circle.
When he did this, the smiles of those children finally sounded behind him again, looking very strange in this empty space.
"How many children are there now?" Afa thought: "I can't look back, so how can I be sure that I have brought all the children with me? By the way, footprints."
His peripheral vision caught sight of the footprints he had left when he came before, so he started taking the "train" in a circle, shouting "drive the train", and then continued to check the footprints on the ground.
"One pair, two pairs, three pairs..."
He found that behind his big feet, there were several pairs of small footprints. This made Afa very excited. This showed that his method worked! The number of those little ones is increasing.
It wasn’t until he walked dozens of times in the open space and confirmed that a sufficient number of children were behind him that Afa changed direction and walked towards the way he came.
"The train is leaving~ Children, please keep up." Ah Fa shouted excitedly: "The next stop is right in front, don't fall behind, Dudu~~"
Now that most of his mission has been completed, as long as he walks back, he can return to the altar of the two masters and get rid of these ghosts!
However, just when he thought the most difficult stage was over, a gust of wind blew from behind him, causing the flames behind his palms to sway and seemed to be about to go out.
"Oops!" Ah Fa reacted quickly and protected him in his arms. The flame as small as a soybean started to burn again and was not extinguished by the strong wind just now. Ah Fa let out a long sigh of relief, but when As soon as he raised his head, a pair of small hands appeared in front of his eyes, covering his...sunglasses?
"Lost! I asked why the light of the candle is so dim. It turns out that I didn't take off my sunglasses!" Afa realized this serious problem. He had never taken off his sunglasses before, so it was so difficult to find the way. But now it was a blessing in disguise, those little hands were covering his sunglasses instead of his eyes.
So he looked down through the slit in his sunglasses, then protected the candle and walked straight forward without any ghost covering his eyes and then circling around. "The person who blindfolded me must be the kid looking for a substitute in the advertisement, right?" Ah Fa's heart was beating fast, and he thought: "In this case, everyone will be here, as long as I can walk out , you can change your destiny against the will of heaven..."
He carefully protected the candle and shouted: "Children, don't get off the car, keep walking with me, the train is leaving, take the You guys go out~dudu~”
Afa was in a good mood, and he raised his hand to pull the whistle twice symbolically. At this time, the little hand covering his sunglasses was loosened, and a group of children chuckled and screamed in imitation of the whistle.
The flames in his hands were erratic, and the road in front of Afa was getting darker and darker. He continued to walk forward, but in the woods on both sides, some figures vaguely appeared, and Afa was sweating coldly. He was so scared that he didn't dare to look to the side, so he quickened his pace: "The train is speeding up, children, keep up~"
When he walked some distance away, there seemed to be a bright light behind him.
"Afa, just stop here." The voice of Taoist Jingde came from behind him: "Thank you for your hard work, leave the rest to us."
Afa He felt another big hand on his shoulder, seeming to want him to turn around.
"Hey, Master, isn't it here yet?" Afa said, "I haven't seen my car yet."
"The car is over here." A beam of light shone behind him, and it seemed It's the shape of a car light.
Afa still didn't dare to turn around: "The key is here with me. I remember I locked it. How did you open the car door?"
"You'll know when you look back." The moral priest said.
"The little train will continue to leave, children." Ah Fa said quickly. Hearing the laughter of children behind him, he knew that there was definitely no evil behind him!
So he forced his steps forward, trying to get rid of that hand, but the strength of that hand made it difficult for him to move forward. Afa shouted in desperation: "The train has stalled, can you kids help push the car~ I’ll give you some sweets after I get out.”
“Okay~” the cute voices of the children came from behind.
Then Afa felt a force pushing his back, causing him to barely break free and walk forward.
He walked for a long time, turning a deaf ear to the sounds behind him.
"Afa, you kid wandered into a ghost place like this again! Come home with me!" That was his father's voice.
"Hey, Ah Fa, I'm calling you something. Hey! You didn't respond when I called you. Do you want to rebel?" This was the voice of his boss.
"Uncle~Someone is left behind~" This is the voice of an unknown child.
"Huh? Left behind?" Ah Fa was shocked. In desperation, he subconsciously turned around. If anyone falls behind, his mission has failed!
