"Don't even think about it!"
Shen Luo roared in his heart as he madly activated the Minor Yang Art.
A layer of red light emerged from his body as he tried to defend himself against the invisible being that was attacking him.
At the same time, a surge of Yang energy was injected into the rune on his chest.
Although this was the first time he had tried this exorcism rune, the situation forced him to make a Hail Mary effort.
To his disappointment, other than feeling a slight heat on his chest where the rune was drawn, nothing else happened.
But right after, Shen Luo felt a slight heat in his eyes. Then, his vision darkened as a black figure appeared in front of him.
This figure was at least three meters tall. His hair was extremely long, reaching all the way to the ground and covering his face. Only a pair of red eyes could be vaguely seen, revealing a dense malice and greed for life.
His two long arms, which were covered in black gas, were strangling his neck!
"It really is a ghost!"
Shen Luo was shocked. Although it was difficult to breathe, he still subconsciously kicked at the ghost.
Before he could kick the ghost, the ghost let out an ear-piercing shriek.
Shen Luo only felt a buzzing sound in his head, and the red light on his body also shattered with a loud bang. A stream of heat gushed out from his eyes, ears, mouth, and even nose. His vision seemed to be dyed with a layer of red, and his other senses were also greatly reduced.
The pair of cold hands around his neck tightened. Shen Luo's consciousness gradually blurred, and the leg he kicked out froze in mid-air before falling down powerlessly.
He vaguely heard a loud thunderclap in the sky, followed by a torrential downpour. After that, he did not know anything else.
…
In a daze, Shen Luo felt that he was in an endless darkness. There was not a trace of sound around him, and it was very quiet.
He wanted to open his eyes, but he felt as if he had lost control of his body. Not only could he not open his eyes, he could not even move his limbs.
He vaguely felt that this was not normal, but the deep weariness that came from the depths of his body made him want to just lie there, do nothing, and have a good rest.
At this moment, the sound of insects suddenly rang in his ears, breaking the silence.
Shen Luo's body quivered, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
In the next moment, he was shocked to find that he was lying on that small country road again.
The familiar road, the familiar farmland, the familiar night fog, the familiar crescent moon … and the distant mountain village hidden in the fog, as well as the blurry light.
"No! Dreams can't be so realistic, and reality can't be so repetitive! Where am I? "Shen Luo quickly stood up. Various thoughts were rolling in his mind.
He suddenly thought of something. He squatted down and dug deep into the ground.
Although the surface of the ground was slightly damp because of the dew, it was still dry deep inside. When he had just lost consciousness, he had clearly seen a rainstorm. Although he did not know how long it had been, the ground should not be like this.
He immediately looked around the small road, but there were no traces of human footsteps on the ground. Moreover, he had run back and forth several times before, so it was impossible for him not to have left his footprints.
"Could it be that this place can continuously repair or repeat everything? Was it not that I was not killed by the ghost, but that I came back from the dead and returned to the time when I had just entered this place? " Shen Luo had read a lot of grotesque stories in the books he had read. Coupled with his quick mind, he quickly made a vague guess.
He immediately thought of something and raised his hand.
The index finger that he had bitten when drawing talismans was now smooth, without a single scar.
"As expected, but this is too inconceivable!" Shen Luo's eyes flashed with a trace of horror.
After understanding the situation he had encountered today, his tense mind relaxed a little, and he also calmed down a little.
However, Shen Luo immediately thought of his previous encounter. He knew that in a moment, the ghost would attack again, and he could not help but frown.
Although he knew that he could be reborn here, and that he would not be as afraid of the ghost as before, if he were to be strangled to death by the ghost again and again, he would definitely not be willing.
Moreover, he could not be sure that he would be able to "resurrect" a third time, since he had already been resurrected twice.
What if he could not "resurrect" again?
He only had one life, and he did not dare to gamble!
Since that was the case, he could only give it his all!
Shen Luo silently pondered. After most of his fear had disappeared, he felt a little eager to give it a try. He began to recall all the exorcism methods that he had read in the ancient books.
He suddenly took off his clothes, bit his finger, and used his blood to draw all kinds of talisman patterns on his upper body. He drew eight talisman patterns in a row before he stopped.
It was not that Shen Luo did not want to continue, but every time he drew a talisman pattern, he did not know why, but he felt the strength in his body weaken a little, as if it was being sucked away.
After drawing eight talisman patterns in a row, his body was already quite tired. If he continued, he was afraid that it would affect his movements, so he stopped.
These were all the talisman patterns that he had studied before, including the "Little Thunder Talisman" that he had tested last time. He was not clear about the specific effects of the talisman's white light, but it was better than nothing.
Shen Luo immediately put on his clothes. With the previous experience of "going around in circles", he did not go in any other direction, but directly ran in the direction of the small mountain village.
He was not a person who was afraid of trouble, but everything that had happened before was too bizarre. Now that he had figured out some clues, he might as well get to the bottom of it.
He also wanted to know if he could escape the ghost's pursuit, or even destroy it, would he be able to leave this place?
In the blink of an eye, Shen Luo arrived at the entrance of the village.
On the ground at the entrance of the village, two wooden stakes were crossed in front of him. It was the same scene that he had seen when he had first entered the village.
Shen Luo saw this scene, and was even more certain of his guess.
He was about to enter the village when he seemed to think of something. He bent down, picked up the two stakes, and inserted them into his waist. Then, he continued to run towards the lit house in the village.
He arrived in front of the house, and grabbed a handful of incense ashes from the fallen altar in front of the door. Then, he jumped in front of the door, and did not wait for blood to flow out of the door. He lifted his foot, and fiercely kicked the wooden door.
"Bang!" The wooden door opened with a loud sound.
The scene behind the door made him slightly surprised.
He saw a seven or eight year old skinny little girl wearing a short grey dress standing there, trembling. She was holding a wooden bucket full of black blood in her arms, and looked as if she was about to fall down at the door.
Seeing Shen Luo suddenly break through the door, the little girl's face was filled with fear, and she took two steps back.
Shen Luo quickly came back to his senses, and ignored the little girl. His gaze swept across the room, and fell on a corner of the room. There was a stiff black dog's corpse lying there, without a single trace of color.
"Black dog's blood." Shen Luo looked at the wooden bucket in the little girl's hands, and his brows furrowed. Then, he turned his gaze, and looked elsewhere.
Next to the black dog was a wooden bed, and a white-haired old man was lying on it. His eyes were closed, and he looked like he was unconscious.
In the middle of the room, there was another altar, and there was a candle on it. Inside the altar, there was a miniature statue of a deity with a dog's head and a human's body.
In addition, the walls of the room, as well as the doors and windows, were smeared with black blood. It was probably smeared there deliberately.
