Chapter 12 Ghost Eyes
"Tuoba Gu, stop for me!"
A woman's harsh scolding rang in my ears.
I suddenly shuddered, stopped involuntarily, and my mind suddenly became much clearer.
The ancient flute! It is the sound of the ancient flute!
Why did Gu Meidi come here?
No! This place is dangerous, and I can't get out after entering the locust forest. I was anxious and was about to remind Gu Meidi not to come in, but suddenly a golden light flashed by. Gu Meidi shouted loudly: "Du!"
In an instant, the thick fog surrounding me quickly dissipated, revealing the lush forest.
I saw that less than twenty meters away from me, the woman wearing a red cheongsam looked at me straight. Although it was so far away, I could still feel her resentful eyes, which made my heart tremble.
Gu Meidi walked up from behind me, her long hair flying in the wind, with a cold expression on her face.
"Oh, you disobedient little girl, why did you come here too? The woman opposite is very unusual. Let's leave here quickly!" As I said that, I reached out to Lagumedi and wanted to take her out of here.
Then, I suddenly became stunned.
Because I was surprised to find that Gu Meidi was holding a bow in his hand.
Yes, bow!
An unusual bow!
The bow was full of golden light, and the shape of the bow body was a golden dragon. The dragon head was raised and it just became a handle. The dragon eye was a red bead, shining like a gem. What's even more strange is that the bow body was densely engraved with strange spells, and an invisible aura surged out.
"You...you are..." I stared at Gu Meidi with wide eyes, in surprise, unable to speak.
The ancient flute holding the magic bow seemed to have become a different person, with a solemn and murderous look on his face.
"You evil ghost, Lang Lang Qiankun dares to come out to harm others. If you don't want to die under my Dragon God's Bow, get out quickly!" Gu Meidi whispered to the cheongsam woman.
"Actually ghost?!" I shivered suddenly. Why did Gu Meidi call that cheongsam woman a cheongsam? I carefully recalled the strange things that happened before, and gradually believed in the identity of the cheongsam woman. She was really a ghost! First of all, she had no blood on her face, cold hands and feet, and was wearing clothes that were completely different from this era. Secondly, no living person would live in such a place with extremely heavy yin energy; furthermore, the strange black fog just now was probably made by the cheongsam woman.
Although I often insist that I am an atheist, I have told me since childhood that there are actually many things in this world that science cannot explain. So at this moment, I clearly know that I am a ghost today, and I am also a female ghost in red with a very resentment.
Hi, giggle! Hi, giggle!
The cheongsam woman suddenly laughed in a strange voice, her laughter, and it was creepy.
Along with her laughter, a violent cold wind blew around, causing the leaves to fly all over the sky.
Gu Meidi's eyes were like a torch: "It seems you are going to force me to do it!"
"Burning with me! You all want to bury me!" The body of the female ghost in red gradually floated up, like a thin piece of paper, light and without any weight. I saw wisps of black smoke suddenly popping out under the ground around me. The black smoke flew back and forth in the air like a ghost, making a shrill sound. The thick black mist rolled towards us from all directions like a surging tide.
I was so nervous that I couldn't say a word. I stood there stupidly, my legs seemed to be cramped and could not move at all.
"Just relying on your Taoist practice, you are purely seeking death!" When talking about the last word "death", Gu Mei flute face was as deep as water. She held the bow with her left hand and put her right hand on the string and pulled it backwards. A sharp arrow with golden light flashing immediately appeared in her hand. The sharp arrow was more than one meter long, the arrow was faintly flashing with dark red light, and many talismans were carved on the arrow.
Ancient flute pulls the strings and puts arrows on it, and raises the Dragon God's Bow.
The black fog has completely wrapped us up and we can't see where the female ghost in red is.
However, Gu Meidi seemed to be able to see the female ghost in red, and she turned around and shot an arrow in the direction of five o'clock.
Suddenly!
The arrows made a harsh roar, breaking through the black fog, and the air around them was stirred away.
The moment the arrow shot out, I saw that all the talismans on the Dragon God's Bow shone, and the talismans on the arrow were also flying back and forth around the arrow.
"Ah——" The female ghost in red let out a shrill roar, as if even the earth was trembling.
Then in just a blink of an eye, all the black mist that enveloped us dissipated, and a little light spot penetrated into the woods.
Only then did I realize that in just a few seconds, my whole body was soaked in cold sweat. I felt like I was fished from the river, and my whole body was dripping with water.
"Is she dead?" I wonder if it was because of excessive fear that I couldn't even speak properly.
"No!" Gu Meidi put down the Dragon God Bow and said lightly: "I gave her a way out, but I didn't kill her!"
As he said that, Gu Meidi turned his wrist and a golden light flashed in his palm. The dragon god bow in his hand disappeared.
I rubbed my eyes hard and asked in disbelief: "Where are the bows and arrows?"
Gu Meidi said: "The Dragon God Bow and my bloodline are one, and they are usually placed in my palm!"
"So magical?" I looked carefully at the palm of Gu Meidi's spreading, and then I found that the lines on the palm of her left hand were different from those of ordinary people. The lines on the palm of her left hand were actually the lines of a bow! I said that before she and I returned to the village, she only brought a few pieces of change clothes, and had never seen any bows and arrows. I was wondering where the magic bow she found was originally hidden in the palm.
I looked at Gu Meidi with surprise. I didn't expect that the rumors in the school were true. Gu Meidi really had ghost eyes. Not only that, she was also good at Taoism, which was really beyond my expectations.
Gu Meidi seemed to know what I was thinking, and smiled indifferently and said, "I am born with yin and yang eyes. When I was a child, a Taoist priest took a fancy to my spiritual power, so he taught me a lot of Taoism!"
"You...how did you know I'm here?" I was confused.
Gu Meidi said: "When I brought you breakfast in the morning, I found traces left by unclean things in your bedroom. When I looked at your uneasy appearance, I felt that you were hiding something, but you refused to tell me, so I had to follow you secretly!"
"Traces? What traces?" I remember that there was nothing else in the bedroom except for a stinky smell.
Gu Meidi said: "Don't forget that I am a ghost eye. Some things you can't see, but I can see them. You may not believe it when you say it. I found a pair of footprints by your bed. Of course, you must not see these footprints, because these footprints were left by ghosts, that is to say, a guest came to your bedroom last night!"
The "guest" in Gu Meidi's mouth must be a ghost. I remembered what happened last night, and when I heard Gu Meidi say this, I suddenly felt that what happened last night was real and not a weird dream.
"This female ghost in red was very resentful just now. If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have been dead today!" Gu Meidi said.
Gu Meidi is telling the truth. I am an ordinary person. If Gu Meidi hadn't driven away the female ghost in time, I would have been caught. I wouldn't have pointed out that one day my body would be hung on the big locust tree, and dense maggots were drilling in and out of my flesh. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shivering.
"Who is that female ghost in red? Why did she harm people?"
"People who die with hatred in red clothes have the most resentment. After death, they will turn into evil ghosts and refuse to reincarnate. They just want to stay in the world to harm people and vent their resentment. This female ghost in red is named Ruolan. During the Republic of China, she was a performer and later married a local warlord as a concubine. The good times did not last long. The Japanese army invaded China, and when the warlords fled in a hurry, they fell behind Ruolan. As a result, Ruolan was caught by the Japanese soldiers. More than a dozen Japanese soldiers dragged her into this locust forest and defiled her. Finally, she used a bayonet to pick her to death and hung it on the big locust tree. When she died tragically that day, she was wearing this big red cheongsam!"
"You...how do you understand so clearly?" I felt incredible. Gu Meidi's remarks seemed to be present in person. She even knew the name of the female ghost in red.
Gu Meidi smiled: "Ghost eyes can not only see ghosts, but also see through the ghost's past and present lives at a glance. As long as I scan her with my ghost eyes, all her past will be broadcast in my mind like movie film!"
I couldn't help but exclaim, "I have worked with you for so long, but I don't know you...you have such superpowers!"
"This is not a superpower, I just understand some magic!" After a pause, Gu Meidi asked me: "Now it's time for you to talk about it. What are you doing here sneakily? And you deliberately avoid grandpa and me. What exactly is it? Is it related to the guests who entered your bedroom last night?"
Now that things have come to this point, I can't continue to hide anything, so I have to tell the truth: "Actually, I'm going to tell you that the guest who came to my bedroom last night...the guest (I feel weird when I say ghosts as guests, for a while.) Who are you guessing it? It's the old Kuizi we went to mourn during the day!"
"Oh?" Gu Meidi frowned, feeling a little surprised: "What are Lao Kuizi coming to you for?"
I said, "He didn't come to harm me, he just asked me to get something from this locust forest, and said that this is my life. Anyway, I don't understand it very much!"
"Pick something? What is it?" Gu Meidi asked.
I shook my head: "I don't know either. He said he was buried under the seventh big locust tree. Before I could find it, I ran into a female ghost in red!"
