Chapter 474 Ghosts
I looked at Murong Zhen suspiciously: "What? Master, do you have other helpers?" Murong Zhen nodded with a smile, then stretched out his arm and pointed to the river: "Well, aren't they all helpers here?"
ha?
I looked at Murong Zhen in slight surprise, what was he going to do? But before I could ask, Murong Zhen immediately sat down on the floor.
After sitting down, he took out the small baggage on his body. The yellow charms inside were blown randomly by the wind. If it weren't for a small clip, they would probably fly out.
In addition to these yellow charms, there was actually a shoe in the baggage, and it happened to be the shoe in the photo that Murong Zhen showed me. Let me tell you, the reason why the baggage is bulging is because it contains a cotton shoe.
"Master, you obviously have the shoes, why do you still let me see the photos?" I complained helplessly. Murong Zhen laughed: "Isn't the photo more convenient, otherwise I would have to open the bag for you and take a look.
"
Well, that makes sense.
"Why are you carrying this shoe?" Gao Changgong asked from the side. As soon as he said it, I nodded quickly. This is what I wanted to ask.
Murong Zhen spread his hands: "Even if you are looking for someone, you still have to rely on clues. When the old man disappeared, the only thing left behind was this pair of shoes. If I don't bring this one, we will have to find the only one we can find."
This shoe, the old man's scent is incomplete, even if I call for help, I can't find it."
"So, you already guessed that we would find another matching shoe, so we carried that one over here." I continued.
Murong Zhen gave me a thumbs up.
I sighed, it turned out that what Murong Zhen said before about looking for the shoe prints was just to find this shoe based on the shoe prints.
I always feel like I'm being tricked by this little old man.
"Okay, I'm going to start recruiting people." Murong Zhen waved his hand to signal us to quiet down. I quickly covered my mouth. Gao Changgong looked at my cute move and actually pursed his lips and smiled.
I saw Murong Zhen pick up four yellow talisman papers, then stretch out one arm and draw it toward the water of the Yellow River, and a water column was drawn out of the river by him.
The water column came straight in front of Murong Zhen. He spread out four talisman papers upright in front of him. The talisman papers seemed to have broken gravity and were suspended in mid-air.
Wow——
With such a sound, the water column directly soaked all four talisman papers. However, Murong Zhen's body was not splashed with a single drop of water.
Gradually, complex runes appeared on the originally blank rune paper as Murong Zhen hummed.
Gao Changgong looked at Murong Zhen in disbelief. The look in his eyes was like looking at an actor performing tricks. But unlike the look in the eyes of an actor, Gao Changgong could clearly see the look in Murong Zhen's eyes, which was full of
admiration.
"Come!" Murong Zhen shouted, and the four talisman papers quickly flew towards the river. Then, as if they were attracted by something, they plunged into the river.
A minute passed, and I looked at the motionless water surface suspiciously. I was guessing in my mind, Master Murong Zhen will not miss it, right? Won't all the talismans be washed away by the water?
But it turned out that I was overthinking it, because just when my thoughts came to an end, a dark 'person' emerged from the river as if it was being held up by something.
The 'person' was so dark that his face could not be seen clearly.
But I'm sure it's not just a corpse, because the feet of this 'person' are similar to Gao Changgong, and they are also void.
Apparently, he is also a lonely ghost wandering in the Yellow River.
As I got closer, I could see clearly that the ghost's left and right arms were actually covered with four talismans. I'm afraid it was forced out of the water by the talismans.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but smack my lips. Sure enough, they say that wherever there is water, water collectors rule the world, and it turned out to be true today.
"Since we can summon lonely souls and wild ghosts, why not just let these talismans go to the bottom of the river to find the old man." I asked in confusion. Murong Zhen shook his head: "No, things like talismans can only
It works on things that contain Yin Qi and demonic Qi. You want it to look for a lifeless corpse? It’s impossible to find it.”
"Huh? Okay." I rolled my eyes in disappointment.
As the ghost was getting closer and closer to us by the talisman holder, the ghost actually resisted strongly. It seemed that it wanted to break free from the talisman paper and escape.
However, the talisman seemed to be burned into his body. No matter how hard he tore it, he could not stop the talisman from continuing to bring him closer to us.
"Master!" I couldn't bear to see his rebellious look, so I called Murong Zhen. Murong Zhen looked at me and smiled, then helplessly stretched out his hand, pointing his index and middle fingers together at the ghost's lips.
Just point your body and the ghost will stop there.
"It's obviously a little afraid of me. Then I won't go over. You can go over and ask him. After asking, I will let him go." When he said this, Murong Zhen paused inexplicably.
But it didn't attract my attention.
So I looked at each other and Gao Changgong was about to walk over. But I found that as long as I took a step forward, the thin ghost would start to struggle violently.
I smashed my mouth: "It seems that he doesn't want me to get close to him."
"Haha, there is nothing we can do about it. Please ask the prince about the whereabouts of the owner of these shoes. See if there is anyone around here who commits suicide and jumps into the Yellow River in the past few days." Murong Zhen could still laugh at this time,
He pointed at the slightly trembling ghost and said.
Gao Changgong nodded lightly and slowly floated over. Just as Murong Zhen said, when Gao Changgong, who was also a ghost, floated over, the ghost that was attracted no longer resisted and struggled.
"I can't hear what they are saying, I'm so worried."
Seeing what the ghost and Gao Changgong were talking about, I felt anxious in my heart and couldn't help but murmur. Murong Zhen stood up from the ground with a smile. He patted me on the shoulder: "Xiaoyang, you are too temperamental."
Don't worry, grind hard, otherwise you will suffer big losses in the future."
"Yeah," I nodded perfunctorily, but still pricked up my ears, wanting to hear what Gao Changgong and the others were talking about, but unfortunately, the whistling of the cold wind and the flowing sound of the Yellow River disturbed me.
Can't hear it at all.
