Old Gong only had a head and no body, so he had no heart.
At least he had hundreds of hearts and eyes.
His thoughts were all written on his face, and he could not obtain Zhao Liu or quickly send him away.
I kept the little paper man close at hand.
Actually, Zhao Liu's words were also tinged with illness, but they gave me a lot of guesses and ways to test.
In terms of things and variables, I have been responsible for Zhao Liu's death, and I need to give an explanation.
And in the village, I should give an explanation not only to Zhao Liu but also to Tang Qianqian.
She lived a bitter life in this world, and she should have a good rebirth in the next one. She should not have so much uncertainty.
I tucked my thoughts away, crouched down to pick up the dead man's clothes, and put the glasses back in his pocket.
A coldness, thin and insistent, washed over me, feeling comfortable even as it made me want to wear it myself...
I slightly tightened my tongue and the pain of the wound brought me back to reality.
This dead man's clothing is just as eerie from start to finish.
I want to try and make some moves on it, to pull my spirit back, but not here.
I took out a roll of red string from my pocket and quickly wrapped the dead man's clothing a few times, forming a package.
Without a better way to defend myself, I can only stay vigilant and cautious at all times.
Unbeknownst to me, the headless woman had already disappeared......
Actually, there's a detail.
Old Gong has feelings for Zhao Liu but dares not even look at the headless woman.
This is sufficient to show the ferocity of the headless woman.
Tie the package of the dead man's clothing around my waist.
Although this trip has experienced many dangers, completing a crucial task is still considered a significant achievement.
I checked the time again, it was almost seven o'clock in the morning.
It turned out that the tug-of-war with Zhao Kang had taken four hours.
I then searched the house again, but found nothing useful in the end.
Just like the powerful master knew that something would happen to him, and dealt with the inheritance and key artifacts in advance.
At around 9 o'clock in the morning, I gave up on further investigation and instead painted a dead person's makeup and left the mansion.
The activities of starved ghosts only occur during the hours of the dog and the tiger, two hours in total, four hours.
The rest of the time, the ghosts in Qi Jia village are also active. Although the starving ghosts are the most fierce, I also need to be on guard and avoid conflicts with other ghosts.
I did not directly go down the mountain, but searched in the mountains instead.
If Zhao Xi had died, then death required seeing the body.
Old Gong has been put to great use, because Zhao Xi gave him two servings of grave grass and pills made with corpse oil. Because of this, he pointed me in the right direction.
When I found Zhao Xi, he looked terrible.
His abdomen was completely open, as if something had come out from inside.
And his eyes were wide open, with a hollow and lifeless look.
He is not Zhang Tai, he did not borrow a body to reincarnate, then his appearance is already dispersed soul and scattered spirit......
The revenge of the infant spirit not only consumed his vital energy but also devoured his soul and spirit!
Even I feel...... something more.
The cavity of Zhang Tai's body was completely consumed, leaving no organs or internal organs.
What would a ghost that successfully avenges its master by eating their internal organs become?
I tucked away the lingering fear in my heart, took off a Buddha pendant from my waist, and threw it to Old Gong.
The Buddha pendant is something from Luo Hu, Old Gong being able to consume other objects, as a ghost, he could also consume another ghost.
As Old Gong swallowed the Buddha pendant, his eyeballs rolled around randomly, and he smiled with a mouthful.
Only then did Old Gong tell me that Luo Hu had been on the run and he couldn't find him, but Luo Hu was being watched, and he couldn't get out.
I furrowed my brow, intending to ask Old Gong what was watching Luo Hu, but changed my mind.
However, I was afraid that asking Old Gong would cause him to contradict himself.
After a slight deduction, I have reached a conclusion.
Either it's the rest of the evil spirits in Qi Jia Village, or it's the starving ghosts who haven't rested and have been chasing Luo Hu's head all this time.
Another possibility is that Luo Hu's head flew randomly, attracting the evil spirits in Qi Jia Village and killing the terrifying being of the Yin-Yang master.
Since Luo Hu can't get out either, it saves me a lot of trouble.
Not long after, I descended from the mountain.
As I passed the grave at the foot of the mountain, I hesitated for a moment and looked at the grave again.
The previous conjectures resurfaced.
Is it possible that this is the grave of the Yin-Yang master, and his soul escaped after he died?
Therefore, starved ghosts and Yao, daren't move the grave?
Does his inheritance have any chance of being in the grave?
I really want to dig up the grave to see.
But at this stage, if you dig up the grave, what benefits can you get? That's still debatable.
If anything unexpected happens when digging it up, such as the Yin-Yang master resurrecting from the grave, it would be like turning the ship upside down in a dirty ditch for me.
Putting aside my greed, I walked past the grave and stopped at a location ahead.
The ground was littered with bones of white, in a mess, and there were many broken clothes.
The flesh was gnawed clean, and even flies would slide on it.
Underneath the white bones, there was something pressed down.
It was a small clay figurine, about two fingers in diameter.
The clay figure had no four observations, slightly open mouth, pale head and body, but was still an oddly eerie.
I quickly picked up the clay figure, and my heart sank slightly.
This thing, is the lifeline of the Ghost Tablet Organization.
I was going to use that one before, but it was interrupted by Luo Hu, and Zhao Xi quickly picked it up.
Logically, Zhao Xi had two such clay figures, and I completely forgot to take them away...
Now it's past twelve o'clock, if I go back, I'll have to spend at least two hours messing around.
I can't be delayed in getting out of the village, because there may still be Yao lurking in the barren fields.
Therefore, I can only give up.
At least I managed to get one of the clay figures. If it's useful, I may still be able to come and take it in the future.
I tucked away my thoughts and started walking back the way I came.
Qi Jia Village was unnaturally quiet, and I didn't even notice that I was being watched by a ghost.
Maybe, the ghosts have been attracted away by Luo Tu.
I also did one thing, which was to put all the Buddha pendants into the night pot, and Old Gong's head blocked the night pot, so he couldn't see anything.
It took me about half an hour to get back to the courtyard I had been to before, and the door of the hall trembled before opening a crack.
Zhang Tu's face flashed by.
I took a deep breath, and my breathing had already become steady.
I walked to the door of the hall, pushed it open, and then turned around to close it.
The corpse emitted a strong, repulsive odor, beside it, stood Zhang Tu with one foot on the ground.
He was different from normal ghosts. White qi emanated from his body.
"Brother Luo..." Zhang Tu was cautious in his demeanor.
I closed my eyes, and looked at Zhang Tu again, with a very complex expression.
"We encountered starving ghosts, Luo Hu's body was consumed, his head flew away and we don't know where it went. I can't find it."
"Zhao Xi was taken over by the spirit of an aborted fetus and fled to the back mountain of Qi Jia Village, and his fate is also unknown."
"Later, I encountered Zhao Kang and almost got killed. In a life-and-death struggle, he was torn apart by my ghosts and his soul was annihilated."
In a few words, I only mentioned the most concise and crucial things.
Zhang Tu's spirit trembled, and a look of suspicion appeared on his face, but he didn't say a word.
I kept my face expression unchanged, quickly pulling out the damaged human skin paper, folding it into a paper person, and the paper person was missing an arm.
Taking a deep breath, I said again: "Brother Zhang, Qi Jia Village is too terrifying. I deduced that this node will not attract starving ghosts to us. Either they are chasing Luo Hu or resting. We must leave as soon as possible. We cannot delay any more time!"
But Zhang Tu still did not move. He was more on guard and retreated a step back.
"Brother Zhang, do you not believe me?"
