The years of reselling the haunted house

Chapter 72
Most of the dry branches of the withered lilac tree have been burned by us.There was only one dry tree trunk left.

The third uncle went over and broke the trunk with all his strength.Although the tree was as thick as a child's arm, it didn't have any moisture, so it didn't take too much effort to break it.

The third uncle asked me to look at the broken section of the tree, and I saw that the center of the section was already black.

The third uncle pointed to the cross-section and said: "See it. Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and the fire of the five elements are here."

I was taken aback: "What kind of fire is this?"

The third uncle explained: "This is the sky fire. Fei Yao said that the lightning flashed and thundered that night, and the lightning must have struck the lilac tree. The sky fire penetrated the trunk and hit the ground along the roots. The five-element yin-repelling formation. Then the five-element yin-repelling formation was activated, slowly attracting most of the surrounding earth energy, so the lilac tree died quickly. On the day it died, we happened to bump into it."

After Uncle San's explanation, I finally figured out the reason. I didn't expect it to be so complicated.If this is the case, then the third uncle's ability is really nothing to say.

According to the third uncle, it is not difficult for me to deduce that it was the activation of the five-element Yin-repelling formation that caused all the resentment of the dead cat to be concentrated on the wooden figurine.And that wooden figurine looks the same as Fei Yao, whether it is Fei Yao's previous life or not, it must have something to do with Fei Yao.That's why Fei Yao is haunted by nightmares every day.

By this time, the sky had darkened again.Surrounding this attic, I can't remember how many nights it was.

But judging from the battle that Third Uncle called everyone to set up, tonight is destined to be another sleepless night.

The third uncle looked up at the sky, then waved Xu Ruoxi to go back first.

As if Xu Ruoxi had been granted an amnesty, she hurriedly drove away from the ancient street.

The third uncle greeted Fei Yao and me, left the yard, re-entered the attic, and went directly to the room on the second floor.

Fei Yao was a little puzzled, and asked third uncle: "I'm afraid, why didn't you let Ruoxi stay with me?"

The third uncle shook his head: "She is a woman and an outsider. It is not suitable to stay in this place today. If she stays, only bad things will happen. Trust me."

Although Fei Yao didn't understand it very well, she simply didn't ask any more questions.

The third uncle asked Fei Yao to lie on the carved wooden bed, don't care about anything else, just calm down and fall asleep.

I thought to myself, in this kind of place, how much experience does Fei Yao have to be able to fall asleep?

Although Fei Yao was a little reluctant, but seeing the seriousness on the third uncle's face, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and lie down on the big carved bed.

It could be seen that Fei Yao's body was very stiff, lying on the bed, she did not dare to move, it was very uncomfortable.

The third uncle took out an incense burner from his bag and lit three incense sticks in it.The incense was lingering, the smoke rose, and the faint fragrance soon filled the whole room.

Surprisingly, as the fragrance permeated, Fei Yao's body gradually softened, and then her breathing became heavier, and she seemed to have fallen asleep.

I was so astonished that I hurriedly asked my third uncle: "What kind of incense is this? It can cure insomnia. What kind of haunted house do we sell if we have this thing? Why not just sell this incense exclusively?"

The third uncle glared at me and said, "This is just an ordinary tranquilizing incense. It is only effective for certain people under certain circumstances. It seems that I have judged well. Fei Yao's previous life was really as good as it is. This bed is related. Next, it is the most important thing tonight. Whether we can find that thread is up to us. Do you know what is going wrong?"

I shook my head and said I don't know.

The third uncle explained: "Curving Yin is an ancient spell. In some remote places in the north, there are still witches and gods. Their special skill is walking Yin. You can invite the soul to take advantage of it. Communicate with living relatives. This method of conveying yin and yang information is called Yin Yin."

I nodded, and asked, "Then third uncle, are you going to get out of bed?"

The third uncle smiled: "It's actually not complicated, not even a Taoist technique. I want to use the method of Yin walking today to see if I can see the wronged soul that exists in Fei Yao's dream. If possible, what happened? I will know the story too."

At this time, I saw Fei Yao lying on the bed, her brows were furrowed, her hands were clenched into fists, her whole body was tense, and her face was full of painful expressions.

When the third uncle saw it, he quickly took out a silver needle and a silver cup from his body, and stabbed it on the pad of Fei Yao's right ring finger.When I squeezed hard, a drop of blood came out.The third uncle used the silver cup to hold it, and squeezed three drops of blood into it.

The third uncle pricked his ring finger again, and also poured three drops of blood into it.Then he took out two sticks of white wax, dipped the blood in the silver cup with a silver needle, and kept picking at the wick of the candle.

After reaching a certain level, the third uncle lit the candle, and the candle started to burn.Third Uncle solemnly placed the two candles at the head and end of the bed.

I can't help much, I can only watch Uncle San tinkering with all this quietly.

In the end, the third uncle casually smeared the blood in the silver pot on the center of his eyebrows.

I was taken aback for a moment, and wanted to ask my third uncle what he wanted to do next.The third uncle looked solemn, and only told me to take care of the three incense sticks, and when they were about to burn out, I would add another three sticks.At the same time, don't disturb him and Fei Yao, and don't make any big noises.If you find anything unusual about the two of you, don't wake them up easily.At that time, he will wake up by himself.

After finishing speaking, the third uncle told me word by word, if you see that the two candles are extinguished, you should leave here as quickly as possible.Run as far as you can, don't come back until dawn.

The third uncle spoke very seriously, and my heart trembled when I heard it.But at this time, it is not easy to ask too many questions, so I have to obey them one by one.I saw my third uncle lying on the carved wooden bed with his eyes closed, his back turned to the sky.

At this time, I was the only one standing in the room.Third Uncle and Fei Yao lay on that bed without making a sound.Even Fei Yao's slight snoring sound could no longer be heard.All around was dead quiet.

I don't know if the third uncle has also fallen asleep, but I can only see his face, which is getting whiter and paler.

After about an hour, Third Uncle and Fei Yao seemed to have fallen asleep.Fortunately, Fei Yao said, her expression was as usual.But third uncle's face, after reaching the extreme whiteness, began to turn green again.

The ashen face made me feel at a loss.I walked over gently, and reached out to check the third uncle's breath.Gossamer-like breath, but that breath is cold.At the same time, the flames of the two candles at the head and end of the bed were already weak to the limit, not much bigger than a bean, and they were still burning.Judging by the momentum of the candle flame, not to mention the wind, even breathing heavily may blow it out.
