Zhou Jingru froze, looked around nervously, and said, "Is there a ghost?"
"It's not a ghost. You come here and say it."
Ye Shaoyang took her by the hand and walked to a place five hundred meters away from the locust tree. He found a random stone and said, "You can sit here, you can't sit under that tree. It's a tree demon."
"Tree... demon?" Zhou Jingru opened her eyes wide, "What is that?"
"If a tree becomes a demon, everything can become a demon, not only animals, but also plants and insects. However, plants have roots. Unless they reach the level of demon spirits, they can't move their real bodies, so they are easier to deal with."
Looking back, Zhou Jingru saw that apart from being too tall, there was nothing wrong with the locust tree. She couldn't help questioning, "How can a good tree become a spirit?"
Ye Shaoyang said: "The place where this tree grows happens to be the Yin chakra eye of this mountain, which is also the place where Yin Qi breathes. You can see that there are many graves next to it. This tree probably relies on absorbing the corpse Qi of the dead. , I don’t know how many years I have practiced through the Yin wheel eye, and the cultivation base is not weak.
As soon as I passed by just now, I felt strong evil and corpse aura. The evil aura came from the tree, and the corpse aura might be because there were zombies under the grave. We'll just wait here, wait for that female ghost to appear, and then think of a way. "
Zhou Jingru was terrified after hearing these words, and squeezed closer to Ye Shaoyang, sticking to him tightly.
"Fear?"
"Hmm... a little." Zhou Jingru turned her head, "I'm always worried that something is behind my back, for example, a ghost hand rests on my shoulder from behind..."
Ye Shaoyang thought for a while, took out three small purple flags from his backpack, inserted them around the rock where the two were sitting, and then drew a cinnabar line with an ink fountain to form an equilateral triangle, surrounding the rock in the middle, clapping his hands and saying: " That's enough. No matter how powerful the ghosts come, they can still block them, so you don't have to worry about being attacked."
Zhou Jingru nodded, smiled, and really let go of her guard.
The two sat side by side on the stone, waiting for the female ghost to appear.
Zhou Jingru suddenly sighed, "I never thought that one day, I would sit with people on a barren hill in the middle of the night, waiting for ghosts to appear... It would be shocking to tell the world."
Turning his head and looking at Ye Shaoyang, a pair of beautiful big eyes shone charmingly under the moonlight. "Brother Shaoyang, look at the couple just now, after they were reincarnated, didn't they know each other? It's so sad to think about it."
Ye Shaoyang smiled: "What's sad? After death, people have to cross the Wangchuan River and drink Mengpo soup. No matter which reincarnation path they enter later, it is a new beginning."
Zhou Jingru said: "I know, but after a person is reincarnated, he will forget the lover of this life, and fall in love with a stranger again... How sad."
Ye Shaoyang said: "Let me tell you, you met a man in this life, you loved him to the death, and you didn't want to forget it after death, but have you ever thought about it, maybe you had such a lover in your previous life, and you didn't want to forget it at first, but in the end After drinking Mengpo soup, I still forgot. After reincarnation, I fell in love with a new man, and then you don’t want to forget...
From the perspective of ghosts, you don’t know how many men you have loved. By the way, sometimes you were reincarnated as a man and loved other women. If you recall all of them, which one do you not want to forget? "
When Zhou Jingru heard this, she was stunned on the spot. "It sounds terrible... So, the stories of the Three Lives and Three Worlds in the book are all lies?"
"No, I was just making a metaphor. If you and your significant other have never done anything bad, you are eligible to be reincarnated as human beings in your next life. If one dies first and you are willing to wait for the other, you will still be together in the next life. But Many couples wish to get a divorce when they are alive, not to mention after death. For those who are true love, let alone the third life, even if the love is fine for the tenth life, when you get bored and divorce in the world, the next life will be over. "
"So that's how it is!" Zhou Jingru smiled with relief, and after a while, said, "Then I will be with my relatives in the next life, and you, brother Shaoyang, will continue to be friends in the next life."
Ye Shaoyang smiled, "If I can have another life, let's talk about it."
Zhou Jingru was startled: "What do you mean?"
Ye Shaoyang shook his head, "It's nothing, don't ask, it's a secret, and it can't be leaked now."
After waiting for an hour, the female ghost still hadn't appeared. Zhou Jingru was a little sleepy, and she hugged Ye Shaoyang's arm without any shyness, and fell asleep leaning on his shoulder.
This is the first time for Ye Shaoyang to do this kind of thing, so he is unavoidably a little nervous, his whole body is stiff, he lowers his head and quietly looks at her peaceful face after falling asleep, but Rui Lengyu's face floats in his mind, and he sighs secretly , It would be great if she was the one sleeping next to her.
There was a tree demon standing not far away, and there might be many zombies. Ye Shaoyang didn't dare to sleep. He just sat there for an hour, and suddenly heard the sound of branches and leaves colliding. On the silent mountain in the middle of the night, this The voice sounded particularly harsh, and Zhou Jingru woke up with a start.
The two looked up together.
The huge canopy of the locust tree swayed crazily. From a distance, it looked like a monster shaking its head and tail. The scene was a bit frightening.
"Female ghost!" Zhou Jingru exclaimed in a low voice, and saw a beautiful figure turning out from behind the tree. It was a young girl in modern dress with short hair and a petite figure. The branches and leaves sit on the stone and weave carefully.
Ye Shaoyang said: "Did you see that, you still had to sit there before, it's a ghost sitting there."
Zhou Jingru asked, "What is she doing?"
"Just look at it and you'll find out."
The girl spent ten minutes braiding the branches together to form a rope. She stood up and looked up, as if she was looking for something. Finally, she chose a branch, put the rope on it, and tied it. Knot, standing on the stone, holding the noose with both hands, seems to be hesitating.
"Oh my god, she's going to commit suicide!" Zhou Jingru guessed what she was going to do and covered her mouth. "Isn't she a ghost? How did a ghost commit suicide?"
"This is a phantom of death. It is the scene when she died. It will be repeated every day at the same time. I don't know the reason."
Zhou Jingru said in a daze: "Since it's an illusion, then... what can we do?"
"The phantom of death will only appear near the corpse. Her corpse must be nearby. Go look for it later."
"There is a tree demon here, how can I find it?"
Ye Shaoyang spread his hands, "Of course, we should kill the tree demon. Look around. Even if there is no such female ghost, if I meet this tree demon, I will never let it go."
Immediately put away the five-element flag and cinnabar thread, and said: "This thing can only block ordinary little ghosts and demons. I'm not here, and you can't do it alone. You should follow me. In case something happens, just be smart. "
Zhou Jingru nodded, followed behind him, and walked towards the locust tree. At this time, the girl had already put her head into the noose, kicked away the stone vigorously, and her body was suspended in the air.
At this moment, a silver light flashed across her body, and she seemed to wake up suddenly, struggling desperately, reaching into the pocket of her shorts with one hand, feeling something, and cutting towards the noose.
