Chapter 161 Water Ghost Comes Ashore
Huang Ying, holding a mourning stick, walked step by step towards the banyan tree. Even though Chen Xin knew that the aerial roots of the banyan tree might be waiting for an opportunity to move above his head, he had to try it once.

In order to face the banyan tree head-on this time, Chen Xin prepared for nearly ten days!
First it was the mourning staff, then the prosperous basin, and then the substitute paper-cut, and in a row, three Yin Shuai-level talismans were promoted.

Including the placenta sac and the chicken brother, Chen Xin already possesses five Yin Shuai-level talismans.

It’s just that it’s inconvenient for Brother Ji to come here. Compared with Huang Ying, as soon as Brother Ji appears in the crack, he will attract many ferocious water ghosts.

This may be related to the internal heat in Brother Ji's body.

But if you directly send Brother Ji's real body into Sanshan Village, Brother Ji will be confined to the room in Sanshan Village.

In this case, it is better not to invest.

Furthermore, when Chen Xin faced the banyan tree directly this time, he actually had no intention of destroying it.

Chen Xin felt that with only the Yin Shuai-level talismans on him, he might not be able to deal with the banyan tree.

Of course, if it is really possible, Chen Xin doesn't mind destroying the banyan tree.

The main purpose of this visit is to test the paper-cutting ability of the stand-in and to make an attempt, an attempt about the banyan tree.

If this attempt fails, Chen Xin will have to leave the big banyan tree first and go meet the little guys in the well of the Holy Infant Cathedral...

Soon, Chen Xin arrived ten meters in front of the banyan tree.

Just like last time, just when he was ten meters away from the banyan tree, Chen Xin saw the villagers kneeling before the "tree god".

Just when Chen Xin was influenced and was about to go to the square again, in the hotel, the paper-cut substitute that Chen Xin had already summoned and put in his pocket moved.

When Chen Xin woke up from the hallucination, he saw that the stand-in paper cutter had jumped off the bed, walked to the corner of the wall, and knelt down in one direction.

Looking at this scene, Chen Xin smiled.

After the stand-in paper-cut was promoted to the Yin Shuai level, a trace of Chen Xin's consciousness attached to it.

According to the information provided when the substitute paper-cut was promoted, when Chen Xin's main consciousness has problems, the consciousness attached to the substitute paper-cut will awaken.

In other words, when the consciousness of Chen Xin's substitute paper-cut awakens, the substitute paper-cut is actually Chen Xin, and Chen Xin can control it to do anything. Similarly, the ghost will also control Chen Xin in the substitute paper-cut.

So after Chen Xin's main consciousness was confused by the banyan tree, the consciousness on the substitute paper-cut had awakened. Then Chen Xin on the substitute paper-cut took the initiative to trigger the substitute paper-cut and took over everything that Chen Xin had experienced.

Actively triggered, it is also the ability of Yin Shuai-level stand-in paper cutting.

So, in the eyes of the banyan tree at this moment, Chen Xin was already kneeling there.

In the underworld.

Huang Ying's footsteps had been stopped by Chen Xin.

This time, the roots of the banyan tree did not attack Huang Ying again.

This was within Chen Xin's expectations.

While the substitute paper-cut is in effect, the ghost will only see the substitute paper-cut, and will not see the person replaced by the substitute paper-cut.

Although the experiment was very effective, Chen Xin did not expect that the paper-cutting substitute would last long.

After all, it is just a Yin Shuai-level talisman, and the effect of the substitute paper-cut cannot last forever.

So before the substitute paper-cutting becomes ineffective, what Chen Xin has to do is to take advantage of this time to do something.

Huang Ying walked up to the big banyan tree and stretched out a hand to touch the trunk of the banyan tree.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong, Chen Xin immediately controlled Huang Ying to climb up the banyan tree.

Compared to the big banyan tree in Sanshan Village in reality which was only a dozen meters high, the trunk of this big banyan tree in the underworld is at least fifty or sixty meters high.

Fortunately, Huang Ying's speed was not slow. Soon, Huang Ying reached the largest branch above the main trunk.

As soon as he went up, Chen Xin saw the hole.

Li Changsheng did not lie on this point at least. Brother Wu, he did dig a hole in the banyan tree.

Without hesitation, Chen Xin controlled Huang Ying to crawl in.

But not long after entering, Chen Xin discovered something wrong. The space inside was much larger than the diameter of the banyan tree itself!

"Have you been recruited?"

Chen Xin withdrew his gaze from Huang Ying and looked at everything in the hotel. He found that there was nothing unusual. The paper-cut stand-in was still kneeling on the ground next to him.

"No one was hit, so it must be the abnormality in the tree hole space itself?"

Chen Xin once again set his sights on Huang Ying and continued to control Huang Ying to crawl downwards.

But before they had climbed ten meters, a faint mist emerged from the tree hole.

Just when Chen Xin was hesitating whether to continue, the fog suddenly became thicker, and Chen Xin could not see anything.

Just when Chen Xin's face looked grim, the thick fog rolled and dispersed.

At this time, Huang Ying was no longer surrounded by a tree hole, but a house, a house with wedding characters pasted on it and various decorations hung on it.

Then, from a bystander's perspective, Chen Xin saw a man and a woman being sent into the room.

Listening to their conversation and looking at their smiles, Chen Xin knew who they were.

Brother Wu and his wife.

"Is this the scene that Brother Wu remembers most?"

Chen Xin thought so, and then everything around him turned into thick fog again. This time, Chen Xin waited patiently.

Sure enough, not long after, the thick fog changed again.

It was still the same room, but this time only Brother Wu was sitting on the ground, looking at the disgusting photos in front of him, covering his heart, pulling his hair, and constantly saying "why, why"!
The screen turns again.

Brother Wu became extremely depressed, and there were many wine bottles on the floor of the room.

Just then, a boy of about fourteen or fifteen walked into Brother Wu's room and told him the truth.

Chen Xin looked at the boy's face and compared it with the middle-aged man who chopped Li Changsheng with a knife. So, the middle-aged man and Li Changsheng were the same age?
But judging from his appearance, the middle-aged man is at least ten years older than Li Changsheng!

The scene changed again. This time, Brother Wu was crying in front of a big banyan tree with many red ropes hanging on its branches. But he didn't cry for long before he was dragged away.

Then Brother Wu was beaten, and after lying in bed for a few days, he suddenly got up.

This time, there was something more in Brother Wu's eyes, as if, after lying down for a few days, he suddenly had a clear goal.

Afterwards, Brother Wu spent three nights hollowing out the heart of the banyan tree.

Then, Brother Wu stained the banyan tree with his blood and jumped into the hole inside the banyan tree.

After the last scene disappeared, the surrounding thick fog began to slowly fade away. When the fog dissipated, Chen Xin's body lying stiffly on the bed in the hotel was found.

Because in front of Huang Ying, there was a figure with eyes as black as ink floating.

If it’s not Brother Wu, who else could it be?
Chen Xin could even see the black gas escaping from Brother Wu's body without the help of the Luowang sieve.

Before Chen Xin could react, Huang Ying's limbs were tied to the spot by the aerial roots growing out of the tree hole.

It was clearly just an air root, but Huang Ying couldn't break free with his strength!

Brother Wu slowly floated closer, stretched out his right hand with curled nails, and touched Huang Ying's forehead.

The placenta sac wrapped around Huang Ying's forehead melted into a finger-sized hole in just one second under this finger.

Then it was Huang Ying’s forehead.

Perhaps it was because of Huang Ying's half-blood physique, it took Brother Wu's finger longer to break through Huang Ying's forehead than to break through the placenta.

But it was visible to the naked eye that Brother Wu's fingers were pressing into Huang Ying's forehead little by little!
Even if Huang Ying could hold on, he wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

When Chen Xin saw this scene, he did not recall Huang Ying, but instead controlled Huang Ying to swing the staff in his right hand.

Huhuhuhu~
After a brief sound, one of the seven pieces of paper on the mourning staff suddenly turned white.

Immediately afterwards, an illusory white figure appeared in the tree hole.

When Brother Wu turned his head indifferently and looked at the illusory figure.

In a flash, the ink-black eyes faded away and turned into normal eyes.

"Xiao Rui..."

A trembling voice filled with endless regret came out of Brother Wu's mouth.

On the other end, the illusory figure that was originally floating and seemed like it would disappear at any time suddenly stabilized at this call.

The woman turned her head, the severe whiteness of her eyes disappeared, and her eyes also returned to normal.

Two lines of tears slid down from the corners of the woman's eyes.

"Brother Wu..."

Grievance, fear, and reluctance are all contained in these two words.

Then, two figures, one black and one white, slowly approached and hugged each other.

Suddenly, an extremely strong Yin energy surged out of Brother Wu's body, filling the entire tree hole and then sprayed out of the tree hole.

Huang Ying was pressed against the inner wall of the tree hole by this negative energy and couldn't move at all.

It took five full minutes for the evil energy to gradually subside.

When Chen Xin looked at where Brother Wu was again, all he saw were two figures that gradually turned into white spots of light and disappeared.

At the last moment of disappearing, Brother Wu and his wife turned to look at Huang Ying. The last picture that appeared in Chen Xin's eyes was the bright smiles of the two.

Just like the smile Chen Xin had when he first saw the two of them entering the bridal chamber in the thick fog.

Sweet and happy.

After Brother Wu disappeared, Chen Xin wanted Huang Ying to break free, but it didn't work.

The wood that imprisoned Huang Ying was still very hard.

Chen Xin tried for more than ten minutes before Huang Ying was able to break the wood bit by bit with his fingertips.

During this period, Chen Xin also discovered that the kneeling stand-in paper cutter in the hotel room had fallen down.

This also means that the banyan tree's illusion on Chen Xin has stopped.

When Huang Ying climbed out of the tree hole, stood on the trunk and looked outside.

He found that he could already see the entire Sanshan Village.

In Sanshan Village, there was no longer the darkness that blocked his vision.

"Is it because Brother Wu left?"

Looking at Sanshan Village, Chen Xin suddenly felt a sense of tranquility and peace.

It feels amazing.

It was obvious that they were in the underworld, and the world was filled with negative energy, but Chen Xin had the idea of ​​settling down there.

Chen Xin thought that the reason for this feeling might be because of those two smiles.

Just when Chen Xin was sighing for Brother Wu and the others, suddenly, he saw a hint of blood at the entrance of Sanshan Village.

Looking closely, isn't that the blood that controlled Huang Ying before?

At this moment, there were heads exposed in the blood.

That's a water ghost.

The water ghost in the river outside the village has come ashore!
