I could not be more familiar with this howl. It was the howl of Cao Laowu at school in the middle of the night. I had prepared myself for this situation, so I was not frightened by the cry. In the blink of an eye, this tornado has already arrived before me. Facing the menacing tornado, I hesitated. It wasn't because I was scared, but because the flower leopard didn't tell me to get out of the way. I didn't dare to make the decision to get out of the way. At this moment, the leopard cat finally spoke up. "Erlang, step forward!"
I was waiting for you to say that. As soon as he finished speaking, without any hesitation, my body flashed and retreated two steps, the whirlwind brushed against my feet and flew out, bringing sand with it, filling my mouth, nose, and eyes. I closed my eyes and coughed a few times before I heard the leopard cat call out, "Erlang, return quickly."
I didn't bother to rub my eyes. I closed my eyes and followed my memories. I took two steps forward and turned my body to sit outside. Tears welled up in her eyes. Her eyes felt as if they were stuffed with a huge stone. It hurt. I just sat there and let the tears flow, because they wash away the dirt, and if I rub it, there might be something sharp that will puncture the cornea.
It seemed like Cao Laowu had been expelled, so this circle was much safer. As I thought about it, my eyes grew brighter and clearer. What was going on? My eyes are closed, how can I see things clearly, and I can see the sun, but it is clearly night now.
The angle of view was finally fixed on the edge of the trough, which was the ground beneath his feet. There were two people pioneering in the fields. It was Uncle Laifu and Aunt Guihua. Uncle Laifu was holding something in his hand. He squatted on the ground, looked at it, and then threw it aside. I took a closer look and saw that it was a section of bone. Looking at this, I understood. Wasn't this the scene where Aunt Guihua was about to go dark?
At this moment, I saw Mrs. Zhao come out from the ground. She wanted to stop Uncle Fu from digging, but she couldn't. After that, Mrs. Zhao looked around and saw Uncle Fu's clothes on the side, so she jogged over, picked them up with her cane and left. Seeing this, Auntie Gui Hua raised her fork and knocked the clothes off. It could be seen that Old Madame Zhao was angry at this moment. She knocked the ground with her walking stick, and a little boy drilled out from the ground. The two of them jumped up and hid behind Aunt Gui Hua's back. At this time, Auntie Gui Hua and Uncle Fu started packing up, preparing to head back. Then there was a flash and it began to darken into night, and behind it came a crackling sound, as if someone was burning something. I asked. "What are you burning?"
The voice of the glass came from the right, with a slightly grumbling tone, "He's finally willing to speak. I thought you were asleep, but no matter how I shouted, you just ignored me."
"Zhao Yinglian's soul has been found. She's in the process of summoning her soul. Erlang, you have to hold on there and can't get out of the way. Otherwise, we'll be in danger." The leopard cat continued with Glass's words, then paused and said, "Glass, you too, must not move, otherwise Old Madame Zhao's soul will slip away once again, and all our previous efforts will be for naught."
After all this nonsense, I still don't know what he's burning. I asked again. No one paid any attention to me, not even the glass.
After a long while, they heard the sound of footsteps and whispers behind them. Then a person said, "Let's go." Then, they heard the sound of footsteps gradually disappearing into the distance.
My heart sank. What do you mean? You didn't even tell me to leave after I finished my work. This is too outrageous. "What about me? Can I go now?"
The surroundings were still silent. No one made a sound, and no one paid any attention to me. It was as if there was no one behind me at all. What was going on? I fell into despair. They all left me in this place, and the thought of it made me frightened. I was about to turn around to take a look, but an idea struck me when I turned my head and stopped. I asked myself if this was a scam. That is to say, I may be bewitched by evil spirits right now, and they have induced me to turn my head and even to leave this position. And the leopard told me, no matter what I saw or heard, not to leave this spot.
At this moment, the leopard cat's voice rang out. "Erlang, come over here."
I heaved a sigh of relief. The fear in my heart was immediately diluted. It turned out that they were still here. I was about to turn around when I asked myself, Is this cat real? Whether this was an illusion or not, I hesitated. The leopard cat urged him again, "Erlang, let's go!" The voice was anxious.
Should I turn around? Should I go?
Suddenly I thought of the cell phone in my pocket, my heart jumped with joy. I quickly took it out and dialed the glass's number. I was close enough to the glass that I should have been able to hear the phone ringing, but I didn't hear it, and no one answered. There was a squeaking noise, and then it suddenly turned into a high-pitched laughter, which made my scalp tingle and I almost threw the phone out of my mouth.
Suddenly, ghostly laughter came from the phone. This kind of situation could only be seen in movies, but today, I encountered it in reality. No, this was definitely not reality. With my friendship with Glass, he would never leave me, I was sure of it. It must have been the evil that had led me out of this position. The importance of this position was something that the leopard cat kept emphasizing. Although I didn't know why it was so important, I knew that we couldn't afford to lose this position, or we would all be in for it. We might even lose our lives here.
After confirming the truth, my heart calmed down. So I sat down, relaxed, and cleared away all thoughts. Slowly, the pain in my eyes began to rise, and my tears began to flow again. I tried to open my eyes. After a few attempts, I managed to open them, but I found that there were two hands in front of my eyes.
My heart thumped. Who would make a joke like this if Uncle Fu was the one in the middle with Hua Kui and Hua Kui as the blind man? I slapped the hands away, and immediately a monkey face appeared in front of me, baring its teeth at me as if in anger. That face only appeared for a moment before disappearing without a trace. Ghost over one's eyes? "It's Old Fifth Cao again!
Crackling sounds could still be heard from behind him. The firelight shone from behind him, causing the dirt and grass on the ground to turn red.
"Jiro, Jiro, you talk to me." I'm so bored! " The sound of glass could be heard.
"Glass, don't talk. You need to calm down and don't have any other thoughts." The leopard cat scolded.
It must have been because she knew that Cao Laowu had been expelled that she dared to be so impudent and speak without thinking.
"Cao isn't far away," I said, also to remind them. "He's just outside the circle, and I almost fell for him."
"Huh?" Glass cried out in surprise, but I could hear fear in her voice.
"The paper man is already burnt, what should we do next?" Laifu said.
"The tree is a thousand feet tall, and the leaves fall back to their roots. How can a guest from a foreign land stand guard for long?" Sometimes, the heavens and the earth would end up with endless grudges and grievances … Life has its end. It's better to go back! "
The words were sung by the leopard cat, and they had a long, cadaverous charm to them, but in many places they were so vague that I could only write them down according to my impression of them. After the leopard cat finished singing, she shouted, "Zhao Yinglian, follow me. I'll send you home!"
It's over? So fast? How did he summon souls? I can't help but feel sorry that I missed the best part of it.
"Er Lang, come back quickly!" Laifu will walk in the front with me, with the lantern in the middle and Erlang Palace in the back! "
Me again? I cursed under my breath and walked over with the glass. We started back the way we had come, but I knew we wouldn't go too well, because from the moment I left that spot, my forehead became more and more itchy, and I noticed countless eyes staring at us from behind.
We came down from the horn ditch and followed the path we had come from. We were about to reach the east and west side of the horn ditch, but there was always a distance of ten meters between us. No matter how hard we tried, we couldn't get even half a step closer. Weird, it was clearly in front of his eyes, and there was only one road that led straight to that place, but why couldn't he get there?
"Something's not right!" I said, "We seem to have fallen into their trap. We can't get out of here."
"Stop, don't go any further. This is the Wall-Hitting Ghost, we can't get out." I think it's because he's experienced a lot, and he's used to this kind of situation. "The wild ghosts of the mountains are sharp and harsh, and they're jealous, so they don't like other people. Therefore, they will do everything in their power to prevent us from going out, and once we have not left the house by daylight, we will have wasted our time tonight. "
"Don't bother with these useless things, tell me what to do!" It looked like Glass was already anxious. Otherwise, with his previous respect towards the leopard cat, he definitely wouldn't have such an attitude.
"Young man, don't be too impatient. The more anxious you are, the more likely it is that something will happen to you. This Wall-Hitting Ghost is the lowest level of Charm, and if you calm your heart, you will not fall for it. "
Calm down? It was easy to say, but at this time, no matter how deep he went, he wouldn't be able to find a second way.
The leopard said, "You walk with your eyes, but the road you see is not necessarily the road, and the places that are not the road are probably the road instead. I walk by heart, and my heart never deceives me. I have remembered the way here. If you follow my instructions now, you will definitely walk the right path. "
The leopard took us right for a while, then right again for a while, and then kept going. And the roads we took were basically all farmland. We tossed and turned for a long time, and when we looked again, we saw that it was a loudspeaker ditch.
"Why are you back? This trick of yours will not work either. " The glass said.
"What you see now is the real loudspeaker ditch. With it, finding your way back won't be an easy task."
"Now we face east and walk horizontally! As long as they are on the road, they will basically leave this land.
Straddle? This is the first time I've heard it.
Our order didn't change, it was just that the leopard cat was originally walking right next to Uncle Laifu, but after a change of direction, the leopard cat had become the first one, and I was still at the back. In this way, we faced east, hand in hand, and slowly moved south. As for why they were facing the east, I asked the flower leopard later. He said that it was the direction of the Great Wheel King's heavenly soldiers' demonification, and this explanation didn't convince me at all. I'm more willing to believe that the east is Shaoyang's way of breaking through to the Old Yin realm. Moreover, it would be around three in the morning by then and the yang energy would gradually rise up, allowing us to use this Shaoyang Qi to break through our seductive charm.
It's funny to know that a blind man is leading us in the night, I thought.
I looked at the road to the south, because it was the same road as the dirt in the field, and the road had long since been ruined to the point where it was as rough as the soil in the field, so if you didn't look carefully you wouldn't see it at all.
"We're halfway to the road." I said, to cheer them up.
"Sigh …" Then Glass tugged at me, her face full of fear, and whispered, "Look, what's that black shadow bouncing in front of you?"
