"Yingzi, are you alright?"
Wang Yang and the others rushed over and bypassed a few big trees that blocked their way. They saw Yingzi running over with a pale face. Her hand holding the flashlight was trembling. It seemed that she was quite frightened.
The hounds were loyal to her and protected her.
Sometimes, dogs were indeed better than humans.
"Big sister, what's wrong? Who bullied you? Tell me, I'll help you beat him up.”
Fatty said indignantly, but he was actually secretly laughing in his heart.
Haha.
Who asked you to say that I'm not as good as a dog?
If he didn't bring Lord Fatty, the consequences would be very serious.
Yingzi ran to Wang Yang's side and pointed at the dark forest in front of her with a face full of fear." Brother Wang Yang, there's a shack over there. I used my flashlight and it seemed like there was something on the tree in front of the shack. It was looking at me. I shot at it and it actually smiled at me.……”
"Ghost? It must be a ghost."
Yingzi was indeed scared to death and could not even speak properly.
A ghost?
Hearing this terrifying word, Fatty shrunk his neck and hid behind Wang Yang." The leader of Mao Mountain is here. Who dares to be so impudent here? Hurry up and leave."”
"Fatty, don't talk nonsense."
As he continued to speak, Hu Bayi started to feel a little scared. He was someone who had really met a ghost. Back then, in the ancient tomb on Oxheart Mountain, he saw a ghost market. A female ghost invited him to eat buns, saying that they were meat fillings.
At the critical moment, he had saved his life with the talisman in his pocket.
"Stop scaring yourself. Let's go and take a look.”
Wang Yang couldn't believe it.
However, there were some doubts in his heart. Could it be that there were ghosts in that place? After all, that place was dark and the Yin Qi was especially heavy. If a person died in such a place, their soul could easily turn into a ghost.
Wang Yang took out a Ghost Expelling Talisman from his pocket and silently chanted an incantation.
Wang Yang's master, Daoist Zhao, was a person with some small skills. As a disciple of a single branch, he would inherit the position of sect master in the future. His master had passed on all his skills to him.
He had also learned most of it.
Simple exorcism spells and soul ferrying scriptures were easy for him.
"Be careful. I feel that something is fishy.”
They were getting closer and closer, and it was instantly chilly. Wang Yang's expression turned a little ugly. When he was nine years old, he had followed his master, Taoist Master Zhao, to a woman's house to experience this. That woman was always neurotic and always said something that others could not understand.
She also liked to eat incense and would eat it all.
Some things were hard to understand with science.
"Little Yang, I feel cold all over. Give me one of your talismans to protect myself.”
Hu Ba asked Wang Yang for a talisman.
A shack was built behind the big tree.
The shack was built with soil and tree branches and bark. No one took care of it, and it was now in ruins.
However…
He knew some feng shui, and he became uncertain when he saw those big trees. There were many types of trees, and some of them were yin. He recognized it. It was the Puppet Tree.
The Puppet Tree was an object of the Yin attribute. Legend had it that if one died by relying on the Puppet Tree, their soul would leave their body and become a soul without a body that would possess the Puppet Tree. Over time, they would become a ghost and then be able to leave the Puppet Tree.
Wang Yang took out a few talismans and gave them to Fatty and the other two. He asked them to hold the talismans between their fingers. These were protective talismans that ordinary people could use. For example, the second type of exorcism talisman needed to be activated with a spell.
"Wu wu ~"
A few illusory figures crawled out of the Puppet Tree. Their faces were unclear, and they seemed to have no facial features. There were only blurry figures. They seemed to be restrained by the Puppet Tree and could not escape.
But the voice was hoarse and cold.
In an instant, Yingzi and the others felt their hair stand on end, and their faces turned pale. She tugged at the corner of Wang Yang's clothes and said with a trembling voice,""Brother Wang Yang, let's go back quickly. It's too scary here.”
Not only was she afraid, even Hu Bayi and Fatty were afraid.
"Yingzi, don't disturb Little Yang. Come to my side.”
Hu Ba was worried that Yingzi would affect Wang Yang's attack speed, so he pulled her to his side and asked Fatty to guard Yingzi's left. The three of them followed behind Wang Yang and walked towards the Puppet Tree step by step.
They were getting closer.
When he was five meters away from the first Puppet Tree, Wang Yang became extremely careful. He reached out and touched his back. He couldn't help but let out a cry. The peach wood sword was actually placed by the bonfire.
"Old Hu, look at those figures coming in and out of the Puppet Tree. What are they doing?”
The fatty's hand that was holding the talisman was shaking, but thinking of Wang Yang beside him, he barely maintained his composure. The more he looked, the more he felt that this ghost thing was very strange. Those figures struggled from the Puppet Tree for a while before shrinking back.
Every time she struggled to get out, her legs seemed to be tied up by something.
At this moment, Hu Bayi was not in the mood to bother with Fatty.
"Little Yang, what should we do now?" he asked Wang Yang.”He was really afraid that those damn things would struggle out.
"I understand."
Wang Yang suddenly laughed happily." Do you see? The positions of these seven Puppet Trees are arranged according to the number of seven and seven, corresponding to the Big Dipper in the sky. This is the Yin Formation of the Taoist Yin-Yang Secret Skill."
"Yin Formation!"
"I heard from my master that it's a formation used by those evil Daoists to raise ghosts. The person who sets up the Yin Formation with the help of Feng Shui and the Puppet Tree to raise ghosts is weak, so we don't have to be afraid. The seven Puppet Trees are already dead. The ghosts that are parasitic in the Puppet Trees will never come out.”
The seven Puppet Trees had indeed withered.
Wang Yang looked under the tree and saw that the roots were more than half a meter thick, but the bark had been peeled off.
If the bark was peeled off, the tree would not be able to absorb water and would naturally wither.
"Who did this? I, Lord Fatty, have to admit defeat. If I meet him, I'll treat him to a drink.”
"Fatty, stop talking nonsense. Give me the flashlight.”
Taking the flashlight from Fatty, Wang Yang pointed at the ghostly shadow on the trunk of the Puppet Tree. The ghostly shadow was still in the shape of a ghost and did not have much damage. Moreover, it was a little afraid of light.
They hid in the tree trunk and did not come out.
Wang Yang took out seven ghost exorcism talismans and stuck them on the tree trunk. Then, he took out the lighter ignition talisman. A strange scene appeared. The Puppet Tree actually trembled and the entire trunk burned.
It was not that the talisman was powerful, but that the tree trunk had already dried up. There was no vitality or moisture left. All it needed was a spark to burn it. Wang Yang pasted talismans mainly to ensure that nothing went wrong.
" Beep, beep. Detected that the host has eliminated a group of spirits and spirits, raising the prestige of Mao Mountain. Reward Mao 100 points. Hope that the host will continue to work hard.”
The system's voice sounded in his mind.
Wang Yang didn't notice it for a moment. Instead, he was shocked.
It was all because of the strange atmosphere.
So it was the system.
Wang Yang was happy again. He didn't expect to get 100 points just like that. It was too easy. He turned to Yingzi and smiled." Yingzi, you're really my lucky star. I've met such ghosts. Let me destroy them so that they can come out and harm people in the future."”
Yingzi nodded subconsciously and then shook her head. She looked a little silly and cute, probably still in shock.
In the fire, the shack was illuminated.
The top of the dilapidated shack was covered with dried bark. There were more than a dozen corpses inside. They were wearing yellow military coats. Wang Yang walked over and squatted down to look at them. Beside the corpses were the Japanese's military knives.
There was also a yellowed book. Wang Yang opened it and took a look. Half of it was written in Japanese characters, while the other half was written in traditional Chinese characters. He threw the book away after taking a look.
"Brother Wang Yang, what does it say?”
Yingzi, Hu Bayi, and Fatty bent over and stood behind Wang Yang. The three of them glanced at the book, but they didn't recognize the words on it.
"This is the Japanese Guandong Army. They were scattered by the Russians and came here to look for the Guandong Fortress. However, the Japanese leader and their guide died, so they lost their way and wandered around the forest. Later, they met a group of grave robbers who told them that the Japanese had been defeated. They knelt on the ground and raised their hands to surrender. After they killed the grave robbers, they dismembered them.”
After saying that, Wang Yang said,"Destroy the West, destroy the West."”
The tomb raider's corpse was beside him. There was a bullet hole in his skull. He had died from a headshot.
Wang Yang asked Fatty to light a fire and burn down the shack.
He felt that the Puppet Tree bark was probably peeled by the Japanese to shelter from the wind and rain. He did not expect that the Puppet Tree that raised the ghost would die by accident.
They returned to the campfire.
This was the place they had chosen to set up camp. There were few trees, and when they looked up, they could see the brilliant night sky. The moon was bright and resplendent at this moment, like a pearl. The mountains on both sides were like open arms, holding the moon in their hands.
Therefore, this place was also called the Moon Holding Ravine. It was a treasure land with good Feng Shui. It was not suitable for an emperor, but it was more than enough for a general or a prince.
Hu Ba was looking for the location of the ancient tomb with a compass. Looking at the Star Compass in his hand, Wang Yang felt that this compass was very similar to the lost compass of Mao Mountain.
"The location of the ancient tomb should be there. You and Fatty go and take a look.”
Seeing that Hu Ba couldn't find it, Wang Yang simply raised his hand and pointed at a slightly low place." The trees there are short. There isn't a single tree that's five to six meters tall. The soil has been moved. If there's an ancient tomb here, it must be there."
