Chapter 48 The Roadblocker
The old man dipped his fingers in saliva and turned a page of the book. The only sounds around him were the sound of him slowly turning the book and the crows that came from nowhere.
"No...there is no such person." The old man turned over the pages slowly and finally said in a hoarse voice.
Shen Ming had an incredible expression on his face: "It's impossible. Dad and I came together for the burial, right here."
The old man stretched out his withered hand and threw the notebook to Shen Ming: "Read it yourself."
Shen Ming was obviously a little disgusted, but he was too embarrassed to leave this job to me, so he turned over page by page.
I felt something was wrong around me. It was already dark, but there were no ghosts in this cemetery.
After a while, Shen Ming spoke in a trembling tone: "Xiao Taoist Priest, there is really no Xiaoli's name on it, but..."
"But what?"
"But there are both of our names on it."
I immediately grabbed the talisman in my schoolbag. It seemed that we were already in trouble.
"Dang-dang-dang."
Outside the car door, the sound of knocking on the glass sounded again. We turned around and saw that the old man guarding the door was leaning directly on the window and staring at me.
I suddenly came to my senses and shouted to Shen Ming: "Throw the record book in your hand quickly!"
Shen Ming turned around and saw that there was another record book in his hand. It was a dozen thick pieces of paper money!
He threw the wad of paper money out as if he was electrocuted, then immediately grabbed the steering wheel and prepared to turn around and leave.
However, the car was obviously out of control, and it rushed straight into the cemetery and began to run rampant.
Shen Ming kept pressing the brakes, but it was of no use: "The brakes failed!"
Without saying anything, I took out the talisman paper from my school bag and stuck it directly on the steering wheel.
"Tear!"
There was a sound of something being burned on the steering wheel, and a black figure suddenly appeared on the steering wheel, and then immediately jumped out of the window.
"What the hell is this!" Shen Ming's voice broke because of fear.
Before I could answer, I immediately shouted: "Quick! Turn around! Let's get out of this cemetery!"
After hearing this, Shen Ming immediately turned the steering wheel and rushed towards the white door.
The moment I went out, I looked at the old man guarding the door outside the window. His sinister smile made the hairs on my back stand up immediately.
After leaving the cemetery and driving to a place where people and street lights could be seen on the road, Shen Ming dared to slow down the car.
"What the hell were those things just now!" Shen Ming was in shock, gasping for air.
I touched my chin, and there was something like blood on the car window glass where I had just been buckled.
"That thing must be a roadblock. We took the wrong road just now. If we hadn't taken a detour just now, we would be lying in a grave tomorrow morning."
After hearing this, Shen Ming trembled all over: "What should I do..."
"Let's go back now. He just stopped there and won't follow. We'll come back tomorrow during the day."
Shen Ming, if I say this, I will immediately prepare to return to Shen's house if I am pardoned.
It took us more than an hour on the way here, but because we were hurrying up now, we arrived at the entrance of Shen's house in less than half an hour.
As soon as we arrived at the door, we noticed that there seemed to be a figure standing at the door. Judging from his attire, he must be a security guard.
"Security! Come open the door quickly!" Shen Ming shouted immediately.
But the figure remained motionless.
Shen Ming was so frightened that he just made an excuse and pulled down the window to scold the security guard.
I quickly stopped him: "Wait, just drive over and stop shouting."
Shen Ming immediately sat back in his seat obediently after speaking.
When we passed the "security guard", Shen Ming realized that that thing was not a person at all.
His head was hanging down in a twisted posture, as if he had been hung up, his feet were dangling in the air, and he was wearing a shroud, but both his clothes and the toad shoes on his feet were all in tatters, as if they had been dug out from somewhere. of.
The same goes for the iron gate in front. Although it looked solid, our car actually went right through it.
After passing through this door, the scenery in front of us suddenly changed. There was another door in front of us, but there was nothing behind us.
Then I whispered: "Okay, you can talk now."
Shen Ming no longer dared to yell anymore, and whispered: "Now... I'm really home."
I nodded: "This is indeed the Shen residence, but we'd better not go back to live here tonight. I think this place... is starting to get messy."
This place looks fine during the day, and there are many objects suppressing what is hidden underneath.
But now at night, the surroundings are no longer peaceful, resentment is lingering around, and the atmosphere in the house is very strange. Just walking to the door makes my hair stand on end.
Shen Ming was a little scared when he heard what I said and was about to turn around.
"Don't move. That thing at the door just now won't let us out. Let's wait in the car until tomorrow."
Shen Ming stopped what he was doing and nodded reluctantly.
To be brave, we turned on all the lights in the car, and I also put talismans around the car.
Neither of us slept well that night, he was because he was scared, and I was always wary of things around me that might pounce on me at any time.
From the car window, I could see some faint shadows moving around in the house. From time to time, some of them would stop and stare at us.
The nearest one even walked up to the iron gate and looked at us with a pair of pupil-less eyes for more than ten minutes before leaving.
I don't know how long has passed.
The sky gradually revealed the white color of fish belly.
Finally got through the night.
Shen Ming fell asleep last night, so I patted his shoulder: "Get up, Master Shen."
As soon as he opened his eyes, he struggled and said: "What! Who! Don't come close to me!"
When he saw it was me, his mood calmed down: "You...what's going on, now, is it dawn now?"
I nodded.
Now he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"What to do? Where should we go now?"
I rubbed my chin and thought for a while. The situation seemed a bit dangerous and it might not be something I could handle alone.
"Give me your phone."
After a phone call, he asked curiously: "Little Taoist Priest, who did you call just now?"
I said softly: "Li Shun, I originally wanted his master to come, but now that Li Yuan is not here, I can only ask him to help."
Shen Ming was a little surprised after hearing this, and then laughed twice: "Little Taoist Master... you are really powerful. I think you are the only one who can control Master Li everywhere, besides Li Yuan."
I shrugged helplessly.
