Chapter 27: Revisiting the Old Places (3)
After separating from Uncle Guo, Mu Fan did not go back to the company or the dormitory, but went directly to the 'One Kitchen in the World' group building.
Because after confirming with Uncle Guo that night, "there was really something", he checked the relevant reports of "One Kitchen in the World" and found that the ban had been lifted there, and he wanted to come to the scene again to see it in person.
The scene is no longer as vigilant as before, and it is possible that the investigation by the relevant departments has ended.
However, because it has not been rebuilt, it is afraid of danger, so the property still sends security guards to prevent other accidents.
Mu Fan lied that he was a reporter, and spent 1,000 yuan in "personnel fees" to buy off the security guards to get in.
Except for the absence of corpses on the rooftop, everything else is basically the same as before, and Mu Fan, who came to the rooftop, still remembers the scene at that time.
There is a small crater that has been bombarded by lightning all over the ground, and there is a large crater that has been blown up, but a ladder has been built on the top of the pit for people to walk around, and a warning sign has been added to the side.
Mu Fan came here just to confirm again, maybe he could confirm it if he didn't come, it was of no practical use, but this was the place where it all began, and he needed to know more about the strange events that happened to him.
There may be some small details that can stimulate the meeting, and it may be possible to find some clues, even if it is just to sit there and remember what is wrong with people.
"Why are you here?", when Mu Fan was standing in a daze on the top rooftop, a person came up to the entrance of the passage.
"Are you a master?", Mu Fanjing found that the person who came was the Taoist robed person he met when he came over last time and was about to squat in the building to inspect the situation of the "Soul Returning Night".
This man scared him at the time, and he said a bunch of obscure sermons as he left, so he was impressed.
"It's strange, it's really strange, how can I meet you every time this situation happens", the master looked at Mu Fan, and then looked at Luo Geng in his hand, very puzzled.
"Master, don't look at me like this, it's weird and scary, why are you here too?", Mu Fan was stared at by the master a little unnaturally, and he said something.
"The last time I came over the soul on the night of returning to the soul, but I didn't find the soul in the place where I sensed, I couldn't get in here at that time, I thought it might be that I didn't have enough mana, so I came to the scene to see it today, I just turned around the building and didn't find it, just now there was a sudden reaction on the rooftop, and I came up"
The master explained, still staring at Mu Fan.
"Oh, I see, but now it's daylight, aren't ghosts and the like something like that only possible at night?
Mu Fan laughed as he spoke, and even laughed at him a little bit for being a hypocrite, because he thought that there would be such dirty things during the day.
"What do you know? Although the Daomen is not like before, the magic still exists, everything in the world has a spirit, you haven't seen it, it's just that my mana is still shallow, and I haven't found out the reason for this matter yet."
Feeling suspected of being a liar, the master couldn't help but be a little excited, and continued:
"After I went back last time, I looked up the ancestral scriptures, and I also consulted my predecessors, saying that there is a situation where people can't find the soul of the dead after death, even if it is on the night of the soul."
"What, how is it possible?", Mu Fan felt related to him, and became a little nervous.
"You don't understand, you young man, wasn't you quite disdainful just now? Why, you're also interested? I won't tell you."
Now it's the master's turn to sell the guanzi.
"Don't, it's me who is wrong, it's me who is wrong, master, aren't you a Taoist? Taoists are also monks, monks don't talk nonsense, do good deeds and accumulate virtues, just give me guidance."
Mu Fan began to sell his mouth, which was too important to him, and he immediately adjusted his attitude and became respectful and reverent.
"I'm more interested in these supernatural things, watching TV and movies are so scary, and the last time I returned to the soul, I also wanted to see if it was really a resurrection."
The master carried Luo Geng twice to meet him twice, and his eyes became more and more different, and Mu Fan was afraid of arousing the master's unfavorable speculation about him, so he showed that he was just interested.
"Oh yes, there is also an old man who told me that thunder and lightning are also called "fire snakes", and what do you say, "soul snake changes, both regeneration and sin" or something, so mysterious, I just want to ask if it's true."
As soon as Mu Fan's words came out, the master was also stunned and said:
"Which old man told you that 'the soul snake has changed'? Yes, there is also a passage in my ancestral canon that like this."
"A very old man, he said that he heard the old man there talk about it when he was a child, but he was also the person who was there last time, and I didn't know him, he saidγγγγγγ β
Mu Fan saw that the master wanted to know who the old man was, so he told the master the details of the conversation with him.
"It seems that the ancestral inheritance is not exaggerated, the old man's expression of the 'soul snake change' phenomenon is basically correct, the soul of the dead will be removed from the evil and evil qi under the baptism of thunder and lightning, if you can't find a creature that can be sustenance, when the time comes, it will directly ascend to heaven and be reincarnated."
At this point, the master paused slightly, looked at Mu Fan again, and continued:
"I think that so many people died in this building, and it was thunder and lightning that day, and those dead souls should have ascended to heaven directly, so I didn't find out about their existence on the night of the soul return."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Luo Geng in his hand and said, "But my magic weapon is still passed down by my ancestors, since it will react, what is going onγγγγγγ?" β
The master narrowed his eyes and looked at Mu Fan.
"Could it be what?", Mu Fan felt a little furious in his heart, and pretended to be calm on the surface.
"Could it be that those dead souls have already found a creature to trust at that time, and turned to that creature?"
After speaking, the master grabbed one of Mu Fan's hands violently, approached Mu Fan with his face, stared at Mu Fan's eyes, and said in a very oppressive tone:
"I sensed the existence of the dead twice, and I met you both times, could it be that you are the creature who was converted?"
"What are you kidding, are you sick? Shocked, you are even more terrible than what you say, you almost scared me to death twice, you say that you look like a cultivator, you are simply a devil."
Mu Fan was extremely angry, but in fact, he was very inward-looking, weak and flustered in a cold sweat, and he came down.
Seeing Mu Fan's reaction like this, and saying that he was a devil, the master suddenly realized that he might have lost his identity as a Taoist, so he let go of his hand and explained in a tone of good advice:
"Young people, don't be surprised, just now it was just a momentary urgency, you know, although those dead souls have been baptized by thunder and lightning, and there is no anger and evil spirit, but no matter how you say it, it is in vain, and the resentment on the body is not so easy to be removed, if the possessed creatures can't get rid of these resentments, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"What's the matter with me? But don't say half or half, what will be the consequences?"
Mu Fan was even more frightened at this time, but he forcibly suppressed this fear, because he had to know the consequences.
"At least it will be riddled with all kinds of diseases, and at worst, it will become a demon with grudges, and there will be no reincarnation"
"It's so terrifying, isn't it? According to the records of your ancestors, this must have happened, so according to you, doesn't the devil still exist?"
Mu Fan's feet began to tremble, and he felt like he couldn't stand anymore.
"That's not completely out of the way, according to the records of my ancestors, the ancestor himself used to be a possessed person, in order to remove the resentment, he created a set of mental methods "Pure Demon Heart Sutra", it is rumored that he did not demonize in the end, and his cultivation has also improved a lot, and it is rumored that he has also become an immortal."
Speaking of the ancestral master, this master showed admiration and pride.
Knowing that there was a way to save him, Mu Fan's heart settled down a little and did not fall down. I thought to myself, no matter what, I must get this "Pure Demon Heart Sutra".
He now knew that, according to this statement, the talents and professions that Mu Fan showed were only the benefits of being demonized, but if it continued, it might be a curse or a blessing, and it might not only be the cost of headaches and coma, but also the unimaginable horror.
"Master, what you said is too mysterious, but it sounds quite reasonable, but just now it really scared me, and when you said this, I feel that I have already had demons, and now I am uncomfortable."
