Chapter 36 Opening the Gate

"That's a talisman specially designed to track ghosts. That kind of talisman can smell the yin energy like a dog and chase ghosts. Wherever the ghost stops, the talisman can chase it. I have a sense with the talisman. Where is the next ghost?

I know it better than anyone else."

Old Liu Tou hesitated and said: "Then why didn't you chase ghosts in the first place?"

I shook my head slightly and said, "Chasing ghosts is useless! Even if I kill the ghosts, I still can't find anyone in the village to help the water ghosts. Now that we are gone, I should let the village do something."

As soon as I finished speaking, a ghost cry came from the village, and dazzling green fire shot up into the sky like fireworks in the village and exploded in the air.

Immediately afterwards, ball after ball of phosphorus fire exploded from different locations in Yulu Village, and shrill ghost cries echoed throughout the village.

Old Liu Tou's eyes widened: "You didn't even get past, and you killed all six ghosts?"

"My talisman is not thrown away in vain. If the soul-capturing talisman sticks to it, half of my life will be lost." I stood up and said, "Did you notice the location where the talisman exploded?"

I pointed to Fish Basket Village: "Every place where the green fire explodes is near the seven trees. In other words, there is something to control the water under the seven trees."

"Ghosts enter the village from the sewers, and their targets should also be seven trees. It's just that they don't dare to touch the tree roots directly, but choose to go around from other places, just like the corpse in front of Wang's house."

"What if I kill all seven trees!" I said to myself, but it scared Old Liutou half to death: "Mr. Li, don't mess around! You kill the trees

If it blows up, everyone in the village will be dead."

I turned to look at Lao Liutou, and for a moment I didn't know what to say.

Old Liu Tou felt chilled, but not completely cold.

Does he hate the villagers? He hates them! But he doesn’t hate them to the extreme. He can’t bear to see Yulu Village destroyed.

I said calmly: "Old Liu, let me ask you something. Have you seen your ancestors come home in these years? Have you seen other people's ancestors come home again?"

Old Liu Tou's face suddenly turned pale.

Ordinary people's Spring Festival ancestor worship is nothing more than offering incense and making offerings. Warlocks' Spring Festival ancestor worship is different from ordinary people. Just because they can see it, they have to set up a separate banquet to worship their ancestors. The warlock himself has to wait on the side.

Old Liu Tou is a warlock and can see ghosts. He knows better than anyone whether the ancestors of the Liu family have returned or not.

I put my hands behind my back and said, "Especially the old man in your family, have any people from that generation ever come back?"

Old Liu gritted his teeth and shook his head. It seems that I guessed it right. The only warlock who truly lost his soul back then was the ancestor of the Liu family.

Looking at it this way, six warlocks conspired to kill the old man of the Liu family, but left old Liu Tou's grandfather behind and used him to fend off disasters for the village by himself.

However, how should we explain the sudden death of a large number of warlocks in Yulu Village at that time?

I turned my head and glanced at the graves scattered all over the mountains and plains and said, "Old Liu, I know that you may not seek revenge from the villagers. But, don't you even want to ask for the truth? Whether you want to take revenge or not is one thing. Whether you ask the enemy

It’s another thing.”

Old Liu said with red eyes: "Ask! I must ask! If it is true that they joined forces to harm the Liu family, I will... I will let them all die."

Some things are just too scary to think about, and the more you think about them, the more terrifying they will become.

If the villagers had been plotting against the Liu family before the sudden death of the warlock in Yulu Village, it would mean that the villagers had forced to death three generations of the Liu family step by step. Old Liu Tou's father and son all died in the villagers.

In the conspiracy, this hatred is irreconcilable!

On the other hand, the villagers were just afraid and were unwilling to stand up to help Old Liu Tou fight off the water ghosts, which may be excusable. It depends on what Old Liu Tou thinks.

My words were equivalent to opening the floodgates of hatred in Old Liu Tou's heart. Deep-rooted hatred is easy to unleash but difficult to contain.

Old Liu Tou growled with bloodshot eyes: "Mr. Li, what do you think we should do?"

I thought for a while and said: "First, we have to nail all the graves here to prevent them from coming out to cause trouble."

"Second, I want to kill some trees in the village, especially the one at the entrance of the village. In the evening, I will go down to chop down the trees, and you wait for me on the mountain."

Old Liu Tou said in a hoarse voice: "It's not that troublesome to pull out a tree, just up here on the mountain. Come with me!"

Old Liu Tou took me around to the last tomb on the mountain ridge: "Come on, help me push away the soil here!"

I had an engineering shovel in my backpack, and it didn’t take long for the two of us to work together and cut off most of the tomb. What I didn’t expect was that there was a rotating base hidden under the tomb. At first glance, it looked like

A fort.

Old Liu Tou took the engineer shovel from my hand and dug hard into the mountain wall behind the tomb. The mountain wall that was originally full of dust collapsed under the heavy blows of the engineer shovel. A door was actually exposed inside.

Artillery suspended in the air by chains.

Old Liu stretched out his hand and stroked the cannon carefully a few times: "Old Liu's family didn't leave anything behind. This cannon was left by my ancestors. It was for when the village couldn't defend it. It could be used again.
