As soon as Qing Yi finished speaking, everyone in the ancient temple, except me and Zhou Jing, suddenly changed their expressions!
Especially Rosa, she was trembling all over, and kept muttering: "It's them, they are coming..."
Qingyi's face changed when she heard it: "You mean, you met them the last time you came?"
"Yeah."
Rosa nodded and said with some difficulty: "The last time we met them was when we left the Ten Deadly Evil Tomb. At that time, we were running away and they were chasing us. They chased us all night and finally retreated at dawn. Eighty percent of my teammates died in their hands..."
"It's true!"
Qingyi nodded and said softly: "It seems that these ghost soldiers are probably related to the Ten Deadly Evil Tomb. If nothing unexpected happens, they are guarding the ancient tomb. No living people are allowed to exist along the way. I'm afraid they have existed for a long time. I guess the village where this ancient temple was built was trampled by ghost soldiers!"
When I said this, screams and roars suddenly rang out outside the ancient temple, which made my scalp numb!
Qing Yi's face changed, and he shouted: "Quick! Go and stick the talismans I gave you on all the doors and windows, they are coming soon!!"
Zhang Jinya and Rosa immediately took action.
When I saw this, I didn't care about the doubts in my heart at this time. I looked at Zhou Jing and ran over to help. Zhang Jinya and I were responsible for the windows on the left, and Zhou Jing and Rosa were responsible for the windows on the right.
At the first window, I looked outside out of curiosity. There was a large dark forest outside, and I didn't see any scary scenes. I was really puzzled for a while-where did the scary scream just now come from?
At this time, I was full of doubts. After sealing several windows in succession, I asked Zhang Jinya while busying myself: "Old Zhang, what is the ghost soldiers borrowing the road?"
"It's the thing we least want to encounter in our line of work!"
Zhang Jinya said unhappily: "I'm so damn unlucky. I haven't been out for a long time. I didn't expect to encounter such a terrifying thing as soon as I came out."
Although Zhang Jinya was complaining, he still used talismans to seal the windows and told me about some things about the ghost soldiers borrowing the road.
After listening to what Old Zhang said, I understood what the ghost soldiers borrowed the road. This thing can be divided into three situations:
The first is that after some armies in ancient or modern times were defeated, because of the specific geographical environment and weather conditions at that time, the ghosts of the dead soldiers would condense and not disperse because of their vitality, and eventually formed ghost soldiers. Their thinking stayed in the time period of the war at that time. They all believed that they were not dead yet and had to continue fighting to maintain their military honor, wandering in the world of the living and refusing to enter reincarnation. This kind of ghost soldiers are very united, and once they are dispatched, they are overwhelming...
The second type is that the ghost soldiers in the underworld come to the world of the living to capture ghosts on a large scale. The ghost soldiers and ghost messengers in the underworld are actually two different concepts. The ghost messenger has a low status in the underworld, similar to the ancient messengers. To put it bluntly, they run errands for the ghost king and the ghost commander, and come to the world of the living to collect the souls of the dead. But the ghost soldiers are different. Their status in the underworld is the regular army, and they are the army raised by the ghost king and the ghost commander! !
When there are natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and famines in the world of the living, causing large-scale massacres of the population, the underworld is full, and the ghost messengers are not enough to capture ghosts in the world of the living, at this time, the ghost soldiers will appear in the world of the living in large numbers, and capture those ghosts who are dead and refuse to reincarnate! !
The third is the war in the underworld...
After listening to what Zhang Jinya told me, I realized that there are wars in the underworld. Under the Emperor Fengdu, the underworld commanders of various parties are divided and conflicts often occur. When large-scale conflicts break out, they may even affect the world of the living! My face turned green...
If we encounter the underworld soldiers borrowing the road, then there are probably tens of thousands of underworld soldiers outside us now? Is there any hope for this? No wonder Zhang Jinya and Rosa have a look of eating shit. There is really no mirror at the moment, but I know that my expression now is probably not much better than theirs just now without looking in the mirror! !
Zhang Jinya seemed to see my fear, walked up to me and patted my shoulder: "It's not that there is no chance. Qingyi has even taken out the best things in the bottom of the box this time. We may still have a chance to survive."
As he said that, Zhang Jinya shook the talisman in his hand and told me that this thing is called Shangqing Exorcism Talisman, which is definitely a rare and good thing. The words on it are all written with the yang blood from the combs of roosters. Such a talisman cannot be written without the yang blood from the combs of more than a dozen big roosters. Moreover, the paper is also soaked in realgar water, and it has been used for 49 days in front of the Taoist Sanqing. The most important thing is that drawing this talisman consumes people's energy and spirit, which is not something that ordinary people can do casually. Even with Qingyi's Taoism, he can only draw three or five pieces a day at most. With this thing, those ghost soldiers will not be able to get in for a while.
After hearing this, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Jinya and I sealed all the windows in a short while. When we returned, Zhou Jing and Rosa had finished their work.
"Are you sure there is nothing missing?"
Qingyi asked, "If there is a window that is not sealed, then those things can still come in, and then we will fail!"
When Qingyi said this, I suddenly remembered that there seemed to be another window that was not sealed!
That window was behind the ancient temple. When we first came here at dusk, I ran to the back of the ancient temple to pick up dry firewood when I made a bonfire. It seemed that there was a window that was not particularly large and was very inconspicuous!
Thinking of this, my heart "stomped", and I didn't bother to talk to Qingyi and the others. I turned around and ran back. Zhang Jinya called me twice but I ignored him.
If I remember correctly, the small window should be behind the Ten Halls of Hell, so I walked around the altar of the Ten Halls of Hell and turned to run to the back. Sure enough, the small window was there and had been opened. As soon as I got here, a gust of cold wind blew in, and I shivered all over!
There must be something bad when the cold wind blows for no reason!
My face turned cold, I gritted my teeth, and pulled out the Baipi Knife with a clang. I held the knife in one hand and the Shangqing Exorcism Talisman given to me by Qingyi in the other hand. I rushed to the small window in a few steps. When I saw the scene outside, my scalp suddenly numbed!
In the small woods behind the ancient temple... a large area of black and dirty things everywhere, less than a hundred meters away from the ancient temple, even if the light is dim, I can still see their appearance clearly from such a long distance!
This was my first time seeing ghost soldiers. They were really like the army. They looked like ancient soldiers in terms of clothing, but they didn't look like Han people. Instead, they looked like some nomadic soldiers in ancient times. They wore no armor, only long leather robes, a breastplate on their chests, and weapons. The weapons were rusty and almost rotten, but they shone with metallic luster under the moonlight. They were obviously real and could make a bloody hole in a person's body!
The faces of those ghost soldiers were pale, and their eyes were staring at me, full of resentment and hatred. They looked like paper figures. No wonder Fatty Wu said that a paper figure was touching his butt.
I was stared at by these ghost soldiers and felt very uncomfortable. I stood there in a daze for a while. I just felt vaguely that the outfits of these ghost soldiers were very familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen them.
Roar!
Suddenly, a sharp roar burst out from the ghost soldiers, full of anger, and then a ghost soldier who was originally in the front suddenly accelerated and rushed towards me. It was very fast, and it rushed to a place less than 20 meters away from the window in almost a blink of an eye. At this time, I could see more clearly. After looking at the ghost soldier rushing over for a moment, I was speechless. There was a big yellow puddle on the face of this ghost soldier, just like an egg pancake spread on his face. I guess this unlucky ghost soldier was the one who touched the fat man's butt, but the fat man raised his butt and shot it in the face. No wonder it was so angry.
Looking at this ghost soldier, the fear in my heart disappeared for the most part, and an inexplicable sense of joy surged in my heart. The thinking that was originally stagnant due to fear suddenly became active. I stopped being dazed and closed the small window with a bang. The window was closed quickly.
All the noise outside disappeared instantly, and I breathed a sigh of relief. I thought... at least we are safe for the time being!
