Chapter 918: The Living Dead

Miao Wentang was extremely shocked by the strange situation in front of him. He suddenly remembered the paper talisman that Tang Xiu had stuffed for him outside the courtyard wall just now. He grabbed it out and observed it for a while, and then he discovered the strange shape of the paper talisman. He could clearly see that there were faint spiritual fluctuations on the paper talisman.

"Could it be..."

"Could it be that this is an invisibility talisman? When you wear it on your body, outsiders can't see you?"

Miao Wentang knew that Tang Xiu was good at making all kinds of talismans, his heart beat faster immediately, he gritted his teeth and walked in the direction where Tang Xiu and the two big men from the Lian family were, until he walked to Tang Xiu, his eyes were still dead Staring at the two unaware Lian family big men.

"Ahem..."

A big man from the Lian family coughed twice, suddenly turned his head and looked around, raised his hand and touched the back of his head, and said with a puzzled face, "Why do I feel my heart is creepy? It seems like I'm being targeted by a poisonous snake?"

Another big man also frowned, and said in surprise: "You also feel this way? It's crazy. I thought I was delusional. It felt like something was staring at me, and my back felt chilly."

Miao Wentang's complexion changed slightly, and he immediately looked away from the two of them. At this moment, he looked at Tang Xiu with eyes full of admiration.

invisibility.

The legendary invisibility talisman.

If he really possessed an invisibility talisman, it would definitely be a sharp weapon for killing people. Without anyone noticing, you can cut off the enemy's head.

After a while.

The two big men from the Lian family looked around and found nothing unusual, so they shook their heads and walked towards the distance.

Tang Xiu stood where he was, looked at Miao Wentang with a smile and asked, "How do you feel?"

Miao Wentang said with a smile: "At the beginning, I felt terrified, but when I found that they really couldn't see us, I was completely relieved. I said Brother Tang, you are really good! If I guessed correctly, just now What you gave me outside the wall was the invisibility charm, right?"

Tang Xiu nodded and said: "Before, for special reasons, we refined some invisibility talismans. I didn't expect that this time when we came to investigate the situation, it would be effective. The Lian family's prevention work is very good. If there is no invisibility talisman, we want to be so easy It's not that easy to lurk in."

Miao Wentang rubbed his hands with fiery eyes, and asked, "Brother Tang, how many invisibility charms do you have? Can you... sell me some?"

Tang Xiu said strangely: "I don't have many, only a few."

Miao Wentang said bluntly: "You can set the price as you like, I want as much as you want."

Tang Xiu thought for a while and said with a smile, "Three pieces, I'll sell them to you for three yuan."

"Ahem..."

Miao Wentang laughed dryly, waved his hands and said, "I'd rather not spend money on buying it, and exchange it with you! I know you've been looking for jade carvings of the Chinese zodiac recently, and I have some news about one of the jade carvings. I'll let you know when I'm sure." You find it."

"real?"

Tang Xiu had a look of surprise on his face.

Miao Wentang nodded and said: "Really, but the other party is difficult to deal with, I'm afraid it will take some time. Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Since we have the invisibility talisman, let's continue to investigate the situation inside! Tonight, Whatever we say, we have to figure out what's going on with the Lian family."

Tang Xiu suppressed the excitement in his heart, nodded and glanced into the depths of the Lian Family Villa, and said in a low voice, "Try not to make any noise, let's make gestures with each other if there is something to do. I have a feeling that this Lian Family Villa is not what it seems on the surface. So simple."

"clear."

Miao Wentang nodded heavily.

In most of the area in front of the Lian Family Villa, besides the lush trees, there are also flowers, plants, rockeries, and gazebos everywhere... But when Tang Xiu and Miao Wentang went deep inside, they bypassed the fountain square in the center of the villa, and immediately felt the style in front of them. A change.

The pitch-black houses are all made of wooden materials, and the exterior is painted with black paint. In addition, whether it was trees or other buildings, they were all painted black, and even the ground was covered with pitch-black asphalt. Even if you look closely, you can't see any color other than black.

"It's too weird here."

Miao Wentang moved closer to Tang Xiu's side, walked cautiously towards the north, and said in a low voice.

Tang Xiu narrowed his eyes, he faintly felt a surge of evil force, and his body was trembling slightly at this moment, because an impulse emanating from his body wanted to rush towards the depths of the Lian Family Villa immediately. go. This impulse was even more a longing, as if there was something deep in the Lian Family Villa that attracted him deeply.

suddenly.

Miao Wentang stretched out his hand to grab Tang Xiu's arm, and said in a low voice, "Brother Tang, don't you think it's too weird? Ever since we passed through the fountain square, there has been no other sound nearby, not even a living person." No... No, not only living people, but also any living things such as chickens, dogs, insects and ants."

Tang Xiu nodded and said, "Indeed."

Miao Wentang hesitated and said: "Brother Tang, why don't we retreat first! I have already begun to have a feeling in my heart that there seems to be something terrifying waiting for us ahead. This feeling makes me very uneasy .”

Tang Xiu shook his head and was about to speak when his expression changed slightly. The moment he grabbed Miao Wentang's arm in an instant, his figure had already disappeared around the corner of a building. He clearly saw, in the night, in the north direction, a child about seven or eight years old, holding a rope in his hand, was bouncing over with a smile on his face. Tang Xiu walked along the rope in the child's hand. Looking at it, I found that it turned out to be a kite flying at a height of tens of meters.

"Strange, is there something wrong with my hearing?"

Miao Wentang suddenly murmured to himself in a voice that only two people could hear.

Tang Xiu took a deep look at the jumping and jumping child who seemed to be still shouting something. He felt the same as Miao Wentang, the child was clearly shouting, but no sound came from him, he was clearly jumping, but there was no sound of footsteps.

around.

It was still dead silent, as if there was something wrong with the hearing system.

After a while.

Tang Xiu looked away from the child, shook his head and said, "He's not a human being, he's...a spiritual body."

Miao Wentang was puzzled and asked, "What is a spirit body?"

Tang Xiu said: "It is considered to be in the state of the soul, but it is different. The spirit body is a kind of creature with a special physique. If it attaches to a human body, it can be integrated into the human soul and replace it. The child is probably the one who was killed by the spirit body. Possessed, forcibly plundered the body. Unexpectedly, this Lian family would have such a thing, it seems that their family hides it too deeply."

soon.

The child ran past the sight of the two and disappeared at the other end of the pitch-black villa. After Tang Xiu and Miao Wentang came out from the corner, they ignored the spirit child, but slowly walked deeper into the villa. A few minutes later, Tang Xiu stopped in front of a zebra crossing on a mountain road.

"What's wrong?"

Miao Wentang looked around and found that there were no people around, so he asked curiously.

Tang Xiu said: "A formation. The road in front of us is blocked by the formation. Unless we can break through the formation silently and create a gap to get through, it will be difficult not to disturb the Lian family. Under the circumstances, enter a deeper place."

Miao Wentang looked expectant, and said, "I don't know how to match, so I can only rely on you."

He knew that Tang Xiu was proficient in formations. When they were in danger together, he had seen Tang Xiu arrange formations with his own eyes, and knew that the formations Tang Xiu arranged were very powerful.

Tang Xiu released his consciousness and circled around the fluctuating energy layer in the air a few times. The power of chaos in his body was continuously released and merged into the energy layer in front of him.

A few minutes later.

Tang Xiu suddenly opened his eyes, and said in a low voice: "It's interesting, it's really interesting. Someone from this Lian family will arrange the Great Formation of the Underworld. What exactly do the members of their family want? Living people exist in the Great Formation of the Underworld , will be shrouded in the ghostly atmosphere of the underworld, and will gradually become a living dead."

Miao Wentang asked confused: "What do you mean?"

Tang Xiu shook his head and said, "You don't understand some things, but I can tell you with certainty that the members of the Lian family living within this formation are no longer normal human beings. No wonder I killed the two elders of the Lian family back then. When I was with my ancestors, I noticed some dull luster on their corpses. I didn't pay much attention at the time, but now that I think about it, there is ghost power in their bodies."

Miao Wentang suddenly changed his expression, and said in a low voice: "Could they be other types of practitioners? For example, the ghost cultivators I saw in the classics?"

Tang Xiu snorted coldly and said, "Ghost cultivation means that after the death of a living person, the soul accepts the baptism of the power of the nether world, and then practices ghost realm exercises. This is the real ghost cultivation. If a living person practices ghost realm exercises, it will Become a half-human, half-ghost monster. Even if you can live with a strong strength and lifespan, I am afraid that you will not achieve much in the future."

Miao Wentang said half-understanding: "What shall we do next? Can you break through this formation?"

Tang Xiu smiled confidently, stretched out his hand to grab his arm, and stepped towards him in an instant. After his footsteps constantly changed direction, his figure quickly appeared in the Great Formation of Huangquan. And the scene in front of the two of them also changed in the process of entering the underworld formation.

"That is……"

Miao Wentang always thought that he was well-informed, but after seeing the scene in the Yellow Spring formation, his eyes were still wider than copper bells, and he couldn't help gasping.

Tang Xiu raised his eyebrows, and said in a low voice, "Altars? What is the Lian family doing with so many altars?"

Miao Wentang said in a low voice: "Brother Tang, I have seen this kind of altar in Miaojiang, as far as I know, there are very few altars in the whole Miaojiang, and there are no more than three in total. But here, there are at least dozens of altars."

Tang Xiu glanced at it and said, "There are forty-nine altars in total, and there is a pool of blood in front of each altar. Damn, this should be human blood. How many people did the Lian family harm to produce so much blood? ?”
