Chapter 282 The haunting paper doll
But now Xiaohua was standing on the side of the road with a look of horror on her face.
"Xiaohua, what's wrong with you?" Chen Yile asked hurriedly.
Xiaohua said in a trembling voice: "Brother Yile, I'm so scared. I don't know what's going on. I always feel like something is staring at me."
Just then, a gust of cold wind blew, and a paper doll appeared from a bush on the side of the road.
The doll is wearing a red wedding dress, which is swaying in the wind, as if calling for something.
Xiaohua's eyes were attracted by the doll, and she walked towards it involuntarily.
Chen Yile yelled, "Xiaohua, don't go! It's dangerous!"
But Xiaohua couldn't listen at all.
The moment Xiaohua's hand touched the red wedding dress, a black aura instantly surged out, enveloping Xiaohua.
Xiaohua let out a scream and her body began to tremble violently.
Soon, Xiaohua also turned into an evil spirit, his eyes turned blood red, and a ferocious expression appeared on his face.
She pounced on Chen Yile, and Chen Yile could only run away again.
Then, Chen Yile met the village's big guy again.
Da Niu is a strong young man and usually very brave.
But at this moment, Da Niu was standing at the entrance of the village with a look of fear on his face.
"Daniu, what happened?" Chen Yile asked.
Daniu said in a trembling voice, "Yile, something is wrong in this village. I feel like something terrible is coming."
Just then, a paper carriage appeared under a big tree at the entrance of the village.
On the carriage was a doll wearing a red wedding dress, which was rustling in the wind.
Da Niu's attention was attracted by the puppet, and he slowly walked towards the carriage.
Chen Yile yelled, "Daniu, don't go over there! That's a trap!"
But the bull continued to move forward as if possessed.
The moment Daniu's hand touched the red wedding dress, a black aura surged out and enveloped Daniu.
The big bull let out a cry of pain and soon turned into an evil spirit.
After Da Niu turned into an evil spirit, his strength became extremely great and he rushed towards Chen Yile.
Chen Yile could only run away desperately, his heart filled with helplessness and despair.
He didn't know how many more people in this village would turn into evil spirits, nor did he know if he could find a way to break the illusion and save this village from being plunged into terror.
His breathing was rapid and his heart was beating like a drum.
His legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead, but his instinct for survival made him turn around and run with all his might.
The heavy footsteps of Da Niu sounded behind him like the beat of a death drum.
Every time, Chen Yile's nerves were stretched to the extreme.
He fled in panic in the village, looking for a place to hide.
However, the whole village seemed to be shrouded in an evil aura.
Those dilapidated houses and barren fields now look eerie and terrifying.
Every shadow seems to hide unknown dangers, and evil spirits may suddenly jump out from every corner.
Just when Chen Yile felt desperate, suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.
That was his grandfather, his eyes full of concern and worry.
Grandpa grabbed Chen Yile and took him to hide in an abandoned house.
Chen Yile looked at his grandfather breathlessly, feeling a surge of warmth and peace of mind in his heart.
His chest heaved violently and his clothes were soaked with sweat.
"Grandpa, what is going on? Why has the village become like this?" Chen Yile asked anxiously, his voice trembling slightly.
Grandpa sighed and a serious look appeared on his face.
"Yile, this is a terrible curse. Those dolls in red wedding dresses are controlled by evil creatures, and they are turning the people in the village into evil spirits." Grandpa's voice was low and hoarse, as if carrying endless vicissitudes of life.
Chen Yile's heart tightened, and fear and uneasiness spread in his heart.
"Then what should we do? Grandpa, we must find a way to save the village." He held his grandfather's hand tightly, as if it was his only support.
Grandpa was silent for a moment, then slowly said:
"Yile, now we can only hide and wait until we find a way to break the curse before taking action." Grandpa's eyes were firm and deep, giving Chen Yile a little courage.
They hid quietly in the abandoned house, not daring to make a sound.
From time to time, evil cries and footsteps could be heard outside, and the sound was creepy.
The corners of the abandoned house were covered with cobwebs and dust filled the air.
The sunlight coming in through the dilapidated windows looked particularly pale and weak.
Chen Yile leaned closely against his grandfather, his body trembling slightly.
His eyes were fixed on the door vigilantly, and his ears were listening carefully to the movements outside.
Every slight sound made his heart skip a beat, wondering if the evil spirit had discovered their hiding place.
However, although they were temporarily safe, Chen Yile's uneasiness became more and more intense.
Those dolls in red wedding dresses seem to be everywhere. They are like time bombs that may cause a bigger disaster at any time.
Chen Yile began to think about how to break the curse.
He recalled the Taoist techniques he had learned and tried to find a way to fight against the evil spirits.
However, he found that the Taoist magic he had learned seemed somewhat powerless when facing such a powerful evil creature.
At this moment, Chen Yile suddenly heard a slight sound.
He looked warily in the direction of the sound, only to see a doll in a red wedding dress slowly walking towards the house where they were hiding.
The puppet's face was pale and its eyes were empty.
The red wedding dress fluttered gently in the wind, as if it had life.
Chen Yile's heart instantly rose to his throat. He held his grandfather's hand tightly, not knowing what to do.
Grandpa also sensed the danger. He gently patted Chen Yile's hand, signaling him not to panic.
Then, grandpa slowly stood up and took out an ancient talisman from his body.
Grandpa's eyes were focused and determined. He muttered something and threw the talisman towards the red wedding dress doll.
The talisman burned in the air, emitting a dazzling light.
The red wedding dress doll was hit by the light, let out a scream, and retreated temporarily.
Chen Yile breathed a sigh of relief, but he knew that this was only a temporary relief.
They must find a way to completely break the curse as soon as possible, otherwise, they will be discovered by the evil spirit sooner or later.
In the following time, Chen Yile and his grandfather have been looking for clues to break the curse.
They moved carefully through the village, avoiding the evil patrols.
The village was filled with an eerie atmosphere, and the dilapidated houses were looming in the shadows, as if hiding countless secrets.
Chen Yile's steps were light and cautious, and he carefully observed the surrounding environment with every step.
Grandpa led the way in front, his eyes were sharp, as if he could see through everything.
They walked through a narrow alley with moss-covered walls and a damp smell in the air.
