Guanzhong Tomb Robbery Notes

Chapter 239: Possessed by a ghost, is Lao Zhang fake?

There was a look of confusion in Su Sheng's eyes, as if he had just woken up.

There was no sign of pain or discomfort.

This makes me a little strange.

Doesn't he feel the pain of being hung up?

But being able to open his eyes means he is still alive, and being alive is better than being dead.

"Resurrection!"

"Are you ok?"

As I shouted, Su Sheng's eyes began to change.

He seemed to have just been woken up from his sleep, and his eyes gradually changed from confusion to clarity.

Stared at me for two or three seconds.

A sense of great grievance gradually revealed itself in his clear eyes.

"Master Chen, where is my grandpa?"

"I miss my grandpa!"

"I miss my dad and my brother!"

“I really want to see them!”

As Su Sheng spoke, he began to cry.

Tears couldn't stop flowing from the corners of my eyes.

I sighed, feeling heartbroken.

Old Man Su and the other two were alive and well in front of me just now, but now...

I lowered my eyes and looked at the countless heads floating on the water.

Densely packed heads were wrapped around Old Man Su and the other two, layer upon layer, and now their bodies could not be seen at all.

How can I tell Su Sheng about this?

Looks like I have to tell another white lie.

I looked at Su Sheng and said in the softest tone, "Your grandfather and the others are outside."

"I'll find a way to get you out."

"Let you meet grandpa, dad, and brother."

"But first you have to tell me, who took you away and what happened after you were taken away?"

Su Sheng became excited: "Grandpa and the others are really outside?!"

"I said, I said anything!"

"After I was beaten that day, I was taken away by an old man from Xiangxi."

"I was struggling not to go with him, but he said my great uncle's name, and then I couldn't control my body and followed him!"

"From then on, I lost control of my body and did whatever he told me to do."

"Do you understand what I'm saying?"

"Although my soul is in my body, I cannot control it. It's as if another soul is controlling my body."

"Maybe this is the legendary ghost possession!"

"Since then, my body has undergone great changes. Not only has my strength increased, but I can also climb walls and fly over rooftops. I can even eat raw meat and drink animal blood."

“I feel like I’m becoming less and less human…”

As he was speaking, Su Sheng suddenly looked away from me.

He looked at Taoist Master Zhang.

moment.

The narration stopped.

Su Sheng opened his mouth so wide that his throat was visible.

Immediately afterwards, an expression of fear and tension spread across his cheeks and filled his eyes!

That expression was even more terrified and nervous than seeing a ghost.

My heart skipped a beat.

He quickly turned his head and looked at Taoist Master Zhang.

Taoist Master Zhang is still the same Taoist Master Zhang.

He still held the soul-calling bell in his left hand and gently stroked his goatee with his right hand.

From my point of view, there is nothing unusual about Taoist Master Zhang.

But why did Su Sheng show such a frightened and nervous expression after seeing Taoist Master Zhang?

Or was it that the ghost that possessed him was frightened by the righteousness of Taoist Zhang and controlled Su Sheng's body to make this expression?

I couldn't guess what was going on.

Taoist Master Zhang is the expert in this area.

So I asked, "Lao Zhang, what's wrong with Su Sheng?"

"The ghost that possessed him was frightened by you?"

Taoist Master Zhang narrowed his eyes and said, "He is indeed possessed by a ghost."

"It was only by using the Soul-Guiding Bell that his soul was able to temporarily control his body."

"But his own soul was too weak, and the ghost took back control of his body."

It seems that my guess was correct.

The one showing a look of fear and tension was indeed the ghost that had possessed Su Sheng's body.

But the more frightened and nervous he is, the better news it is for us.

Because he was terrified, it meant he was afraid!

Fear shows that he is afraid of Taoist Master Zhang!

"Old Zhang, can you get rid of the ghost in Su Sheng?"

"Without that ghost causing trouble, we can find out what Ma Si did to Su Sheng and learn more about the situation."

"Okay!" Taoist Master Zhang agreed readily.

Then he made a hand seal with his right hand, raised the soul-calling bell high with his left hand, and prepared to chant the spell.

At this moment, Su Sheng suddenly shouted at me: "Master Chen, don't believe him!"

"He's not Lao Zhang!"

"It's not Lao Zhang!"

"He, he, he is..."

Dang rang rang!

The soul-calling bell suddenly rang.

Su Sheng felt as if an invisible hand was strangling his neck.

The muscles in his neck were tense and his blood vessels were bulging.

He struggled wildly, twisting his head.

Immediately afterwards, his whole body began to twist violently.

Like a fish being hung up, he tensed his whole body and twisted and struggled.

But he was tied up with chains, and no matter how hard he struggled, it was useless.

"Ho ho!"

Su Sheng's face turned red.

Keep opening and closing your mouth to get more air.

Gradually, his face turned from red to purple.

I said worriedly, "Lao Zhang, Su Sheng is dying."

"The Su family only has this one child, don't kill him!"

Taoist Master Zhang was concentrating on making hand gestures, chanting spells and ringing bells, as if he didn't hear what I said at all.

My brows furrowed slightly.

I vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Taoist Master Zhang is a compassionate person and will never disregard human life.

Seeing that Su Sheng was about to suffocate to death, he still cast the spell regardless, which seemed unreasonable no matter how you looked at it.

I suddenly thought of the scene where Su Sheng was interrupted.

When he was saying that Taoist Zhang was not Old Zhang but something else, the soul-calling bell suddenly rang, interrupting Su Sheng's words.

Did Taoist Master Zhang ring the bell on purpose to interrupt Su Sheng?

So what does Su Sheng want to say?

It’s not Lao Zhang, it’s Ma... Could it be Ma Si?

The Taoist Master Zhang beside me is Ma Si?!

As soon as this thought came to my mind, my body shivered uncontrollably.

hiss!

If the Taoist Master Zhang beside him was really Ma Si in disguise, then where was the real Taoist Master Zhang? Had he already been murdered?

If we follow the fake Taoist Zhang disguised as Ma Si, wouldn’t that be courting disaster?

I didn't dare to think any further.

“Hoho…hiss!”

Su Sheng let out a cry of pain, his face turned purpler and purpler, and his body struggled weaker and weaker.

This is a sign that the oxygen is running out.

If he is not rescued, death will await him.

Su Sheng's eyes moved slowly.

Because his head was held high, he could only look at me with his eyes slanted from the corners, his eyes revealing his reluctance to give up life.

His eyes that showed reluctance to give up life deeply hurt my heart.

Every moment I spent with Old Man Su and his earnest instructions to me came to my mind.

The figure of Old Man Su appeared in my mind, bowing to me and saying, "Master Chen, I'll leave my dear grandson in your care!"

"Help me take good care of my baby!"

My nose felt sore and tears came to my eyes.

That's it!

We can’t let the Su family die out!

Besides, Taoist Priest Zhang’s identity is unknown, and we can’t just watch him kill Su Sheng!

I made up my mind.

He pretended to miss a step and bumped into Taoist Master Zhang.

Pfft!

I caught Taoist Master Zhang red-handed.

We both fell to the ground and rolled around like gourds.

"Hoohoo!"

The spell was interrupted and Su Sheng began to gasp for breath.

He looked at me with gratitude: "Thank you, thank you Master Chen for saving me."

"Lao Zhang is fake, it's Ma Si who's pretending!"

As Su Sheng was speaking, anger suddenly flashed in his eyes: "Master Chen! Be careful of Cui Hao!"
