“There must be a big evil thing born in the village. Only by going in can we find out.”
“But didn’t you say that rushing in will attract ghosts?”
Gu Zhisang said: “That’s right, so we have to wait until the yin and yang are reversed before we can enter. That’s when the yin energy in the ‘Hanging upside down in the underworld’ is the weakest and the ghosts are the rarest.”
“Quickly explain the situation here to others, let them set up a protective formation around the village in advance.”
“Although the barrier exists, this is the intersection of the Yin and Yang worlds. If something happens in the village, the ghosts that leak out cannot be left uncontrolled.”
Listening to Gu Zhisang’s explanation, the casual team member had a vague guess, and sure enough, she immediately said:
“Today, when the Yin and Yang are reversed and the Yin energy in the “Hanging upside down in the underworld” is the thinnest, I will go in to find the missing people.”
The team member said anxiously: “Master Gu, how can I let you go in alone? This is too dangerous!”
Gu Zhisang: “Every time a living person falls into the underworld, the Yang energy in the body will be lost. It can’t be delayed.”
Naturally, she was in no mood to care about the life and death of the old man from the Qianqing Sect.
But the other members of the Special Spiritual Department, especially Yan Cheng, who suffered an unexpected disaster, were also there. She was afraid that it would be difficult for them to last long in Tianyun Village filled with Yin energy.
Seeing that the accompanying team members were still worried, Gu Zhisang said bluntly:
“It would be more efficient for me to go in alone. Letting others follow me would only hinder me. When the time comes, I will not only have to bring out the people trapped inside but also be distracted to protect you.”
“Besides, if I can’t solve the barrier formed here and the evil creatures in the village, then you can’t either. “
Although these words were a bit arrogant, they were all true.
That night, the members of the investigation team who also knew for the first time that there were ten thousand ghosts in Tianyun Village were also scared sweated, and were extremely nervous.
Under Gu Zhisang’s arrangement and deployment, layers of protective formations and ghost-killing formations were quickly set up around the village.
As for Gu Zhisang, she had been preparing to enter Tianyun Village to search for the missing members.
Late at night, the suburbs of Fengcheng were silent and dark.
Gu Zhisang asked everyone to retreat a thousand meters away. She stood alone in the wasteland with her hands in a Taoist seal.
As the words of the numerology spell were recited, she put her fingers together to make a sword with a ‘Thunder Talisman’ on her fingertips.
With a flick of the sword finger, the yellow talisman was like a piece of card paper blown up by no wind and exploded in the air from bottom to top to drive away the thunder. The thunder of evil and purification.
The lightning illuminated the ground in front of Gu Zhisang, and she felt that the yin energy around her had dissipated a lot, but at the same time, a series of gloomy eyes that seemed to have substance suddenly fell on her.
She looked normal, quietly looking at the village head that gradually became visible in the night fog.
A plaque of the village was hung on an archway, with “Tianyun Village” written on it.
The road leading to the gate was pitch black, but Gu Zhisang saw a white shadow floating not far away.
She raised her foot and stepped into the archway.
As the saying goes, “At midnight, the night watchman beats the gong, and a hundred ghosts travel at night.”
It was just past midnight, the beginning of a new day, and also the time when the yin energy was the heaviest.
Generally speaking, this time point was when the ghost gate opened, and it was most likely to bump into dirty things.
For people with weak yang energy in their horoscopes, the Taoist Masters would advise them not to go out at this time.
The place where Tianyun Village was located has reversed yin and yang, forming an upside-down underworld.
The midnight, which was originally the heaviest yin energy, was the safest time in the village when the yin energy was the lightest, and the ghosts were the fewest and weakest.
After timing, Gu Zhisang directly broke through the surrounding yin evil spirits, allowing Tianyun Village, which was shrouded in yin energy, to briefly appear and successfully enter it.
Walking along the yin-filled village road, Gu Zhisang found that small buildings were standing on the ground of the original vast open space.
The village didn’t disappear, it was indeed here, and all you could see were the villagers’ self-built houses.
The convenience store near the village road had its doors and incandescent lights open, but there was no one in the store.
The whole village was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard.
This was an empty village.
There was not a single person!
Gu Zhisang looked around and found that every household had red wedding paper pasted on their doors, red carpets, and red lanterns hanging in front of their doors…
The whole Tianyun Village was filled with a strange sense of festivity.
As the red paper spread out on the ground, Gu Zhisang went deeper and deeper and finally stopped in front of a small building.
The walls and gates of this house were covered with big red “囍” characters, and the lanterns hanging in front of the gate fluttered crookedly in the wind.
Gu Zhisang stretched out his hand to push open the gate, and with a “squeak”, the crack in the door slowly revealed the scene in the yard.
As the gate was pushed open, a cool night breeze blew in, carrying a fierce aura.
Gu Zhisang, who had been prepared for a long time, took off the peach wood sword on his back without knowing when, and with a backhand spin, the seemingly blunt wooden sword crossed in front of him, bringing a sound of breaking wind.
A sharp scream sounded along with the peach wood sword, and the evil ghost hiding in the yard and preparing to attack her was directly killed by the wooden sword, and the last bit of cold soul energy also dispersed in the air.
This scene directly stunned the other evil ghosts hiding in the yard.
They looked at each other, and they didn’t expect that this person who had just entered the barrier would be so swift and powerful!
Before the evil ghosts could think about whether to continue to rush up, Gu Zhisang picked up the peach wood sword and took the initiative to cut off the evil. Before the evil ghost could react, he was cut to pieces.
Seeing this, some evil ghosts who were temporarily captured as “strong men” or bullied the weak and feared the strong scattered and fled in the night.
After the many ghosts gathered in the yard dispersed, the yin energy here also weakened a lot.
The illusion that existed since entering Tianyun Village disappeared.
Gu Zhisang looked around and found that the courtyard and the village, which were already in the underworld, were even more bizarre.
The wedding carpet spread in front of the courtyard to welcome the guests was solidified and smelly blood plasma.
The big red “囍” characters in front of the courtyard and on the walls were all hung upside down, and none of them were posted upright.
The air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
The village was still deserted and silent, but what could be seen with the naked eye was the blood-stained and trampled paper money on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Gu Zhisang lowered her eyes slightly, knowing in her heart that many people in this village were probably in danger.
At this moment, her ears moved slightly, and she suddenly looked up at the main house in the courtyard.
After a while, she walked over with a sword in her hand and kicked the closed door open.
The living room was dark and gloomy, and only the bedroom further inside was lit with a faint yellow light, which overflowed from the crack of the door.
Gu Zhisang continued to walk in, feeling the increasingly dense Yin energy, and tightened the peach wood sword in her hand.
After kicking open the bedroom door and seeing the scene inside, her eyes paused slightly.
On the innermost bed, there was a figure wearing wedding clothes and a red veil……
