Chapter 317 Staying Overnight
The fat man suddenly opened his eyes. The candle had been extinguished at some point. The moonlight outside the window shone in, allowing him to see his surroundings clearly.
"Liu, Brother Liu? Where are you, don't scare me"
The reason why I said this is because the fat man found that Liu Jun, who was lying opposite him, was gone. The man is gone, and the sword is gone.
All of this was full of weirdness. Suddenly, a pair of women's feet suddenly dropped down from mid-air.
The red embroidered shoes with flowers and the long red skirt were swaying in the air so strangely.
"Fuck you!" The fat man took out the alms bowl and slammed it forward.
Then, he was slapped.
"Fat man, wake up, I'm just sleeping with your grandpa, you're sleepwalking, and you're beating me?" Liu Jun covered his head and looked at the fat man speechlessly.
"Brother Liu?" The scene in front of him disappeared in an instant. Liu Jun appeared in front of the fat man, and Brother Liu covered his head and wanted to beat him up.
"Brother, don't blame me. There are ghosts in this place." The hallucination I fell into"
Liu Jun was puzzled. He and the fat man were wearing magic weapons and talismans. Ordinary ghosts have already stayed away from each other, so how could they come forward to torment them.
At this moment, Liu Jun grabbed the sword on the table and stabbed it to the top of his head. After a shrill scream, an embroidered shoe fell down.
“This looks like a woman’s shoe?” The fat man looked at the embroidered shoe.
"Nonsense, it's so small. Can a man wear it? It's obviously a three-inch golden lotus embroidered shoe." Liu Jun picked up the shoe and looked at it for a while. There was a strong ghost aura on the shoe, indicating that the other person was a powerful ghost.
But even if it is a ghost, it is impossible for Fatty to hallucinate without Liu Jun noticing.
So, Liu Jun and Fatty searched the entire house but found no clues.
"Okay, go to sleep" Liu Jun winked at the fat man.
The fat man understood instantly, and the two of them walked back to the table and continued to sleep on their stomachs.
In less than an hour, the candle flickered and turned into a weird blue with a "pop" sound, and then went out. The whole room was plunged into darkness. Even the moon outside seemed to be covered by dark clouds and could not shine in.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and the fat man shivered, while Liu Jun remained motionless and fell into a deep sleep.
At this time, a woman in red clothes with long hair hung down from the roof. Her long hair was disheveled, her face was pale, there were bloodstains at the corners of her eyes, and bright red blood was flowing from the corners of her mouth.
The moment the woman came down, she rushed towards the fat man. But as soon as she got close to the fat man, a sword was held to her neck.
"I finally came out. If you don't come out, I will really fall asleep. Tell me, what do you want to do?" Liu Jun said with a sword in one hand and the Lihuo Talisman in the other, looking at Li Gui.
But what Liu Jun didn't expect was that this fierce ghost was going to give Liu Jun something. Silence is golden, he said nothing and just stood there quietly.
Liu Jun held the sword and was in a stalemate for a while. His hands were sore and he simply took back the sword.
"Let's go, let's stay here for the night. There is no harm. I will clean up the place before leaving tomorrow and burn some paper for you."
After saying that, Liu Jun took back the sword and told the fat man Walking back to the table, I was about to continue sleeping on my stomach, but unexpectedly the female ghost floated over.
A red word "GO" appeared on the table.
"I said, if you don't deserve it, let's stay here for the night. Sister, why don't we burn paper for you tomorrow?" The fat man looked at the female ghost speechlessly.
"Save your life, let's go" three more words appeared on the table. Just when the fat man was about to say something, Liu Jun stopped the fat man and turned to look at the female ghost.
"Are you trying to say that this place is dangerous and you want us to leave quickly? Don't worry, we are here just to deal with things here."
The female ghost did not speak, just slightly He nodded and disappeared.
"Alas, alas, eldest sister, your shoes." Liu Jun picked up the embroidered shoes on the table and wanted to give them to the female ghost. However, he was a step too late and the female ghost had disappeared.
"Forget it, let's rest."
"Brother Liu, didn't the female ghost tell us to leave because it's dangerous here?" "What are we here for? What we want is danger. It's best that the ghoul can come and look for us." It saves us trouble."
After Liu Jun finished speaking, he lay down on the table and continued to sleep.
The two of them stayed until dawn, all the candles had been burned out, they didn’t encounter anything else, and the female ghost didn’t appear again.
Liu Jun took out some ghost coins as promised, burned them to the female ghost in the yard, and took the fat man from house to house to look for the ghoul.
It’s just that this ghoul seems to be no longer here. Every house is empty, with no blood stains or corpses.
When he found the last house, Liu Jun found that when he passed the lobby, the floor under his feet seemed to be empty.
"Is there anyone there?" Liu Jun knocked on the floor and waited for a while, but no one answered.
"Look for the entrance" Fatty and Liu Jun searched in a wide circle and finally found the entrance to the cellar.
He was actually under the fire pit. When Liu Jun went down with a flashlight, a dung fork used in the village work was pointed at his neck.
"Who are you?" The strong man holding the dung fork looked wary.
“We are here for a trip,” Liu Jun said without thinking.
"Fart, can you travel to our place? Come with me to see the village chief." The strong man held the dung fork, pointed at Liu Jun and the fat man, and walked forward.
Liu Jun always thought this was a cellar, but he didn't expect that there were passages extending in all directions.
After walking forward for a few minutes, Liu Jun saw an old man with gray hair walking over with two strong men.
"Village chief, we arrested two people. They said they were here for tourism."
"Tourism? Look at their bags." The village chief looked at Liu Jun suspiciously and directed the people next to him. The strong man took the fat man's and Liu Jun's bags and emptied them out.
The fat man’s backpack looks like he is traveling, full of food.
Liu Jun's is not good, it is all talisman paper, as well as wolf brush, cinnabar, compass and other things.
"Are you a Taoist priest?" The village chief was fairly well-informed. As soon as he saw these things, he named Liu Jun's identity.
"Yes, are you villagers of this village?" Liu Jun looked at the village chief in confusion, and then looked behind the village chief. Out of curiosity, dozens of people gathered around him.
It’s unscientific. Didn’t Black and White say that this village was completely killed by ghouls? What’s in this cellar?
"Da Shuan, don't be rude. Taoist priest, you have finally found your way here." The old village chief stepped forward and held Liu Jun's hand, looking excited.
“Wait a minute, old man, I’m a little confused. What does it mean to have found this place? Did you know we would come?”
"It's Lian'er. Lian'er protected us. Last night, he told us that someone would come to rescue us and asked us to wait patiently." The village chief hesitated.
Then Liu Jun knew that a few days ago, a ghoul did come here, and he started killing as soon as he came, killing more than a dozen people.
Only later, she was blocked by a fierce ghost named Lian'er. Although Lian'er was not the opponent of the ghoul, her constant provocations successfully angered the ghoul and gave up her attack on other living people. He hunted and tried his best to catch Lian'er, but he failed to catch her. Even if he tried to find the remaining living person, he couldn't find her.
Lian'er is the female ghost Liu Jun and Fatty met at night. Her husband died suddenly on their wedding night. Lian'er hanged himself, leaving the courtyard empty.
Later, due to the remote location of this place, Lian'er committed suicide in red clothes and became a ghost directly. However, she retained a certain amount of sanity and did not harm other people. Instead, she took the initiative to help the ghouls when they came. The remaining survivors were evacuated.
The place where the village chief is staying now is an underground passage that was dug before. It was mainly used to prevent ghosts. It has never been used, but it came in handy this time.
Stay here, but you won’t die of hunger. During the day, the village chief and others took advantage of the absence of the ghoul to go to their home through the tunnel, carry food back, and seal the tunnel at night.
This closed tunnel does not just close the door. The old village chief is also smart and moved the only statue of Guan Gong in the village into the cellar.
Liu Jun looked at it and realized that this statue of Guan Gong was at least several hundred years old, and it was a statue of Guan Gong who had been visited by Guan Gong. A faint divine power was swirling around it.
