At night, it is extremely quiet.

The nights in the small mountain village are undoubtedly much quieter than in the city.

Nowadays, many young people have left their villages and went to big cities to make a living. Only middle-aged and elderly people who are used to going to bed early and getting up early have also turned off the lights early.

but.

At this time, a few pale lights appeared in the ancestral hall behind the village, and there were faint crying sounds inside.

Yes.

The body of the man who died today was parked in the ancestral hall, and their descendants were also guarding the spirits here in mourning.

In fact, Jiang Chen had previously suggested that if the family was afraid that they would not have to come tonight, they could just stay in the ancestral hall by themselves, but the younger generation of the deceased insisted on filial piety to the elders.

Jiang Chen was very surprised by this.

at this time.

In the pale treasure hall, several young people were guarding the corpse in the treasure hall with sad expressions.

Looking closely, there were three other people sitting in a corner of the ancestral hall, looking at it.

That's right.

The three people in the corner are Jiang Chen, Luan Xiaoqing and Xiao Liu.

Originally, Jiang Chen only planned to come by himself, but Xiao Liu and Luan Xiaoqing must follow him.

Both of them are smart people. If something bad really happens in this village, then it is undoubtedly the safest to be with Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen naturally understood the plans of these two people, and did not refuse them at the moment.

......

at this time.

The lights above the three of them were swaying, and there was a faint crying sound not far away, which really made Xiao Liu feel a little chilled.

It would be fine if he didn't believe in ghosts and gods. Now that he believed that there were ghosts and gods in this world, he felt a sense of panic when he looked at the spirit cards above the ancestral hall. He always felt that there seemed to be many eyes staring at him behind the spirit cards.

Xiao Liu reached out and tightened his clothes and leaned against Jiang Chen without any trace.

"Brother Jiang Chen, can we really see ghosts tonight?"

"I can't be sure of this, but if the old people said it was true before, then something unusual would happen here tonight."

"That... Brother Jiang Chen, are real ghosts as scary as they act on TV?"

"No, in fact, many ghosts look different from living people, they are like before death and after death."

After hearing Jiang Chen's answer, Xiao Liu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. However, at this moment, Jiang Chen continued to say.

"Of course, it is not ruled out that some evil spirits will transform into very terrifying appearances."

"The appearance of this evil spirit is much more 'conspicuous' than that of the evil spirits in movies and TV shows, and it will be unforgettable for a lifetime when you look at it."

After listening to Jiang Chen's story, Xiao Liu directly made up many terrifying scenes in his mind, and immediately approached Jiang Chen.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen reached out and patted Xiao Liu on the shoulder and laughed softly.

"Don't worry, unless the evil spirit intentionally let you see it, ordinary people will not be able to see the evil spirit."

"Huh~ So that's what happened!"

Xiao Liu immediately breathed a long sigh of relief, and that cowardly made Jiang Chen laugh.

......

While Jiang Chen and the other two were talking softly, time soon came midnight.

at this time.

There were fewer young people guarding the ancestral hall than before, and some of them had already gone to bed, and they would take shifts with these people to watch.

In the corner of the ancestral hall, Xiao Liu also talked softly with Jiang Chen, and he felt a little drowsy.

"Brother Jiang Chen, has that ghost been here yet?"

"not yet......"

Before he could finish his words, Jiang Chen suddenly stopped and his originally lazy state became serious.

"Shhh~ Stop talking, there's something wrong!"

While speaking, Jiang Chen turned his head and looked at the center of the ancestral hall - where the corpses were placed.

After hearing Jiang Chen's words, the sleepiness in Xiao Liu and Luan Xiaoqing's minds disappeared without a trace. Xiao Liu almost shouted, but fortunately he covered his mouth with his hands in time.

After the two of them reacted, they quickly followed Jiang Chen's gaze.

at this time.

The lights in the ancestral hall suddenly began to flash.

The young men who were watching only felt a gust of wind blowing, and they couldn't help but stretch out their hands to tighten their clothes.

but.

The people obviously didn't think much about it and continued to burn paper money with sad expressions. Perhaps because of the wind, the flames of the paper money suddenly rose a little and kept beating.

Every place has its own customs. In this village, some people will not park the corpses for three days after their death. They will only place the corpses in the ancestral hall for one day and burn incense to their ancestors who are worshipped in the ancestral hall.

.

What those young people didn't see was that the incense lit on the altar was also burning rapidly.

certainly.

None of these escaped Jiang Chen's eyes. Now he was staring at a clearing place next to the corpse with slightly narrowed eyes.

At this moment, Xiao Liu suddenly pulled Jiang Chen's sleeve.

Jiang Chen turned his head and met Xiao Liu and Luan Xiaoqing's puzzled eyes.

Seeing the inquiry in the eyes of the two, Jiang Chen instantly understood what they were thinking.

"You should pay attention to the flames of paper money and the burning speed of incense, and a ghost appears."

When Xiao Liu and Luan Xiaoqing heard this, they quickly looked in that direction again, and then they saw the abnormality that Jiang Chen said.

The next moment.

The two looked at Jiang Chen in confusion again.

"It's okay, I've already arranged a magic circle here, and it's okay to speak in a low voice. It can't sense our existence."

After hearing this, Xiao Liu remembered that Jiang Chen had been fiddling here for a long time before, and it was supposed to be what he said to set up a magic circle.

"Brother Jiang Chen, has the Yin Ling really appeared?"

"Um!"

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, and took out two talismans from his body and handed them to them.

"If you want to see it, just hold this talisman in your hands and you can see the ghost."

Looking at the talisman placed in front of him, Xiao Liu and Luan Xiaoqing were slightly stunned. Both of them were curious and they really had the intention to have a glimpse of the appearance of the ghost.

But.

They were also a little afraid of seeing a terrifying scene.

"It's okay, this ghost is just an ordinary person and has not transformed into a very terrifying appearance."

"Is that so?!"

Xiao Liu and Luan Xiaoqing looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and reached out to take the talisman from Jiang Chen's hand together.

As soon as the talisman was started, they felt a heat flow coming from their palms into their bodies, and then it quickly flowed throughout their bodies.

The two of them didn't think much about it and looked forward again following Jiang Chen's gaze.

The next moment.

A middle-aged man who looked a little dull appeared directly in the eyes of the two of them.
