I felt that something was wrong with Xia Xin, so I asked her, "What's wrong?"
Xia Xin shook her head and said, "I'm fine."
I stared at her for a moment, and then I understood. Wasn't she afraid? It's just that I've never seen her scared before, so I didn't react for a moment.
I asked Xia Xin, "Is it because of the Heaven-grade weapon?"
Xia Xin hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"You know them?" I asked.
Xia Xin smiled bitterly, "I don't know them. They know me."
I don't know what kind of enmity there is between Xia Xin and Sky Weapon, but from the looks of it, she probably won't say. I thought for a moment and comforted her, "Right now, we are wearing paper clothes with Grandpa Gu's birthday and the anniversary of our death pasted on our bodies. Those heavenly soldiers might not be able to recognize you."
Xia Xin nodded and said in a low voice, "I hope so."
Then she continued to tremble.
I took off my coat and draped it over her. Xia Xin raised her head and looked at me in surprise. Then, she hesitantly said, "It's not because of the cold."
I said, "I know. There's the scent of living people on it. "
Xia Xin nodded and didn't say anything else.
We sat in the yard for a while, the faint sound of footsteps on the street. About half an hour later, the footsteps gradually faded away.
I heaved a sigh of relief. The Sky Weapon had probably left already.
At this moment, the courtyard door was pushed open and the couple entered the courtyard.
The woman looked at us and said coldly, "How long are you going to stay?"
Mr. Zhao said, "Let's rest here, let's rest here."
The woman said, "There's no place for you to sleep."
Mr. Zhao said, "It's fine, we aren't afraid of the cold. We can just sit in the courtyard."
The woman pointed at Grandpa Gu and said, "Even the old man isn't afraid?"
Mr. Zhao then laughed out loud, "He's not afraid of the cold at all."
I think if a woman understood what he meant, she'd probably be scared to death.
The woman nodded and said, "As long as you don't cause any trouble, you can stay in the courtyard."
Soon after, she took out a small packet of incense. The man took out a box of matches. They lit the incense and stuck it in the corner.
I looked at the two of them warily. "What are you doing?"
The woman said faintly, "If a Heaven-grade weapon captures someone outside, it's best for the living to burn an incense stick to prevent the Heaven-grade weapon from catching wrongly."
I asked in astonishment, "You also know about Sky Weapons?"
The woman seemed to be rather impatient. She merely replied with an "hmm" before falling silent.
I stood up and said to the woman, "How do you know?"
The woman coldly glanced at me and said, "There is an old man surnamed Li in the village next door. When he was in his mother's womb, he had met a Heaven-grade weapon before. He said all this. He has Yin Yang Eyes. "
I heaved a sigh of relief. It turned out to be the old man I met.
After the woman and man lit incense and entered the house, we were the only ones left in the courtyard.
After a while, I felt something was wrong, because there was always a feeling of unease in my heart.
I said to Xia Xin, "Do you think there are any flaws in what we did tonight?"
Xia Xin curiously asked, "What's the loophole?"
I thought for a moment and said, "I still don't know what the loophole is, but I feel that something isn't right."
Mr. Zhao interjected and said, "You may have been a guide boy, you must have had some sort of lingering suspicions."
I said, "Second Uncle, don't be so mischievous and mischievous. I really feel that something isn't right."
Just then, the woman came out from the Inside the house and said to us, "It's quieter to spend the night here." Then she went in again and slammed the door.
At that moment, I suddenly understood what I was worried about.
I took a few deep breaths to calm my voice down as much as possible, then said to A Chang: "Tell us again, what do you need to create a guide boy?"
A Chang looked at me a little weirdly, as if he didn't quite understand why I proposed such a strange request.
However, he patiently said, "I need to kill two living people. One's birthday is the same as the grave owner's birthday, and the other's birthday is the same as the grave owner's date of death. and then imprison their souls inside the wood man. "
I said, "Stop."
I took out the wood man from my arms and gave it to A Chang: "Is there a soul inside?"
A Chang was startled when he received the pill from wood man, but after that his face became serious: "No."
Xia Xin also took out his wood man. After A Chang inspected it for a bit, he said to us, "There's no soul inside either."
I said, "What does that usually mean?"
A Chang said: "Either way, ancient head carving the wood man was to scare people, he did not arrange for the guide to be at all."
We all shook our heads.
A Chang also said, "It is indeed impossible. Therefore, the ancient head has probably placed his soul in some other place. "
I asked A Chang, "Are they placed on living people? For example, Xia Xin and I. He usually looked like a living person, capable of eating and sleeping. Once someone touches Grandpa Gu's body, we will be very angry, very angry, and want to take the body back so that it can be properly preserved. "
A Chang's face became serious: "You mean …."
I pointed to the house and whispered, "Did you notice the couple just now? Don't you think that their clothes are a little similar to wood man's? "
Xia Xin also reacted and said, "It's more than just the likeness. It's simply the exact same."
Mr. Zhao also said: "No wonder their lifespan is being used up so quickly, so it turns out that the two of them are ancient head's guide boys."
Suddenly, A Chang's gaze fell on the incense in the corner of the room and he cried out: Not good. He then hurriedly walked toward the incense.
However, before he could reach the incense, he fell to the ground with a thump.
I asked anxiously, "What happened?"
A Chang clenched his teeth and said: "It's Bewitching." Then he fainted.
I asked Xia Xin, "What is bewitching? What happened to him? "
Xia Xin said, "Once this incense is lit, anything that has a soul will be confused. will fall into a nightmare and will be unable to extricate itself. "
Soon after, her body also tilted to the side and she became unconscious.
The only ones who are awake in the courtyard are me and Mr. Zhao.
I said to the Mr. Zhao: "Why are we alright?"
The Mr. Zhao covered his nose and mouth and said: "Because we are living people. Eldest Nephew, you must understand that A Chang borrowed the corpse to return the soul, and Xia Xin is a live corpse. Their souls were forcefully sealed within their bodies by some means. Once there was a bewitching thing, it would quickly pass through their bodies and harm their souls. As for us, our bodies alone can provide the most protection for our souls. "
I asked, "Then are we immune to poisons?"
The Mr. Zhao said, "That's not true either. Generally speaking, a boy could hold out for a quarter of an hour without a problem. The rest of us can only last for three to five minutes at most. "
I asked the Mr. Zhao, "Then are you …"
Mr. Zhao's face suddenly flushed red: What are you saying? Do I look like I can't get a wife? "
Then he fell to the ground.
I was a little anxious and shouted, "Second uncle, stop playing. This isn't the time to joke around. It's nothing to be ashamed of if you're bare-handed. Hurry up and get up. "
Mr. Zhao did not move. He didn't know if it was real or just faked.
Amongst the three people in the courtyard who had fainted, Inside the house and two guide boys, this feeling was not good. I really want to faint too.
But I was awake. I wanted to run, but my legs were too weak to move.
At this moment, the door creaked open.
The woman and the man stepped out in an odd way.
The two of them circled us for a while with undisguised expressions of disgust on their faces. Then, they carefully flattened Grandpa Gu's body as if they wanted him to sleep more comfortably.
The man walked to my side and tore off the paper slip on my back. He looked at Grandpa Gu's birthday and said with a cold smile, "You're a guide boy?"
I shook my head. "I'm not."
The man said, "Of course you're not."
The woman also tore off the note on Xia Xin's back. I could tell they hated us for pretending to be them.
Now that the few of us have lost our ability to resist, we are basically at the mercy of others. I could only talk to them more and buy time.
I said to the man, "The Bewitching is on. Why are you all right?"
The man's face was filled with pride. "We already gave our souls to Grandpa Gu. If he doesn't let us get into trouble, we'll be fine. "
I asked, "How are you going to deal with us?"
The man chuckled and took out an old shirt from behind him. "You'll know when Grandpa Gu comes."
That dress was an old-fashioned jacket, it should be Grandpa Gu's. The man laid his coat on the ground, then picked up the match and struck it.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew past, extinguishing the man's match.
The man dropped the match and struck another, but another gust of wind blew and his match went out again.
I said pleasantly, "It seems that it's the heavens' will."
The man flew into a rage. He threw the match on the ground and shouted, "Who is it?"
The courtyard was quiet, no one made a sound. The man struck a third match. Just as the match was lit, he suddenly shouted out loudly and grabbed a person's collar with his hand.
It's from the Mr. Zhao. His eyes were slightly open now, his cheeks puffed out as if he were about to blow.
The man looked at Mr. Zhao and coldly said: "I didn't think that bewitching didn't cause you to faint."
Mr. Zhao said, "Yes. "Not only is he not unconscious, his limbs can still move."
Then he punched the man in the temple. The man swayed and fell to the ground.
The woman screamed and pounced towards Mr. Zhao. But when Mr. Zhao slashed her neck with his hand, she fainted as well.
I asked in pleasant surprise, "Second Uncle, you're a virgin?"
Mr. Zhao spat: "Bullsh * t, this daddy has read countless people. This time, it's because I have great abilities and have cultivated the Unbreakable Body, so these bewitched souls are unable to do anything to me. "
