Chapter 121: Flags

Each sect has its own different method for catching ghosts. Buddhists, Taoists, mountain idlers, some people rely on cultivation for Taoism, and some rely on empirical instruments.

But no matter what method you use, you can't take it lightly.

The candle on the altar was suddenly blown out, and several Dharma children walked around nervously, and the old Taoist priest stood up, pinched his fingers, his expression was nervous, and his steps moved again and again, looking very serious, and he turned around and shouted: "This ghost doesn't want to come out, let's force it to show up, hang the flag!"

As soon as the words fell, the two Taoist boys next to him hurriedly took out a yellow flag, this thing is called the flag, in Taoism, the flag is the banner of the heavenly immortals, and unfolding it is equivalent to telling the immortals, asking the immortals to descend mana.

The banner was hung up, and the old Taoist priest walked to the altar and opened his mouth to chant in a low voice, and the brick beside me asked strangely, "What is this guy singing?"

This is a different way of chanting the sutras, called chanting. Singing it can better inform the heavenly immortals, in order to tell the heavenly immortals, we are in trouble here, please ask the immortals to help. ”

I explained.

"My dear mother, there are really gods in the sky?"

"I don't know about this, I haven't seen it either, you pay attention to the hanging flag, if it is a master with real skills, then the edge of this banner will slowly float up, and even knotted. ”

A few minutes after I finished speaking, there was no wind in the cell, but the banner hanging in the air floated little by little, and then the hem of the banner began to roll a little bit, and finally it was actually knotted!

"It's knotted!"

Brick said in surprise. Seeing this scene, I smiled and said, "This old Taoist priest has real skills, and he is very powerful." I guess the ghost is going to be forced out soon, it seems that there is nothing to do with us, and there is no need to buy cinnabar. ”

It's a good thing, the unclean things are cleaned out, and we can live behind bars.

At this time, a large number of black shadows floated out of the surroundings, slowly surrounding the offering platform in the middle, and these black shadows could be seen with the naked eye, as if someone had put a huge pot on top of our heads, and whispering voices came from all around. It's like some whispering in the ear, very soft, but fine, like someone muttering, and the listener's scalp is numb and upset.

"What's that sound?"

Brick asked, shaking his head.

"I don't know, but it's probably not a good thing, the big drama is coming soon!"

As soon as I finished speaking, the offering platform below was suddenly overturned by an invisible force, and the candlesticks and tributes were sprinkled on the ground, and several Taoist children were taken aback and retreated in panic. The old Taoist priest held the banner pole in his hand and shouted, "Ghost, show up!"

He had a piece of rune paper in his palm, and then pushed it forward, and there was a bright light shooting out, and at the same time, there was a crisp sound of "crackling", as if someone had set off a firecracker.

The dark shadows that surrounded them quickly retreated, but they did not disappear. The old Taoist priest held the banner high and said loudly: "The evil has not yet appeared!"

After a few palms in succession, there was a "crackling" sound, and the black shadow on the ground was constantly repulsed, I stared at the black shadow, and after a long time, I saw that there seemed to be something strange in the black shadow. If you look closely, you can see that there are some emaciated imps crawling in the shadows, and their whole bodies are pitch black! These imps look like wild beasts, their bodies are as thin as dry bones, but they have sharp fangs, and they dare not appear in the shadows.

"It's ......"

I seem to have an impression of this kind of little ghost, and after thinking about it for a while, I remembered that there is a record of this kind of little ghost in "Strange Tales of the Mountains", which is a kind of thing called infant martyrdom. Generally, children who grow up to the age of five or six die for special reasons, because there is still a foreign attachment on their bodies, and this attachment eventually turns into resentment, and they turn into wild ghosts. Infants are usually three to five in a team, but they are very timid, similar to the heart of children before death, they dare not attack very majestic or domineering humans, they will only hide in the dark and secretly ambush, find those who are weaker, kill these people, devour their essence, and break their bones. I can't help but think of what the rats said before that the dead people in the old section of the cell were basically broken to the bones, and the method looked very similar to these infants.

But the other biggest characteristic of the infantils is that they tend to cling to the more powerful ghosts, to put it simply, they are a bit of a tiger and a bully. I like to follow the powerful demons and pick up the cheap.

"Could it be that the owner of these infants is the feathered ghost?"

I said to myself, the strength of the feather ghost is indeed strong enough, but the last time it appeared, it said that there was another ghost in the cell, obviously the other head ghost mentioned here is not referring to this group of martyrs, so who could it be?

"Look!"

Just as I was thinking about myself, there was a change below! The infants who were forced by the old Taoist priest to retreat into the dark shadow did not dare to act rashly, and the situation seemed to be dominated by the old Taoist priest. But at the same time that the bricks called me, black snow fell in the cell!

I don't know where the black snow came from, and the big clumps of snow are like velvet, fluttering down, but they don't bring any beauty, on the contrary, they give people a strange and eerie feeling.

"Fucking black snow, weird!"

Brick said scoldingly.

I didn't say anything, I haven't seen a similar record of these black snow in "Strange Tales of the Mountains", but it's definitely not simple, as if it was some kind of harbinger, something must be coming!

The old Taoist priest held the flag, raised his head to look at the black snow, he bore the brunt of being drenched in the snow, his eyebrows were tense and solemn, and he said loudly: "Where is the monster, appear quickly!"

Raising his hand, he wanted to cast the previous spell again, but this time he didn't succeed, and when he raised his hand, his face immediately changed, and then viscous blood spurted out of his mouth, and the boss with both eyes fell to the ground all of a sudden!

"Obediently, this old Taoist priest has fallen. ”

The brick shouted, and I was so frightened that I suddenly collapsed?

But what was even more strange was the flag, even though the old Taoist priest fell, but the flag was still standing, the slender and long pole was so pestle on the ground, the black snow kept drifting, the flag floated on its own, I squinted my eyes, as if I could see a shallow light from the roof of the cell, landing on the pole.

"...... with Light"

I whispered to myself, the bricks are invisible, but I look very closely. The light was red, like a flowing flame, and it fell from the sky and gently wrapped around the flag, and then looked at the black snow, which seemed to flutter at random, but in fact did not fall around the flag, and on both sides of the flag, you can see a particularly obvious clearing.

It seems that the immortal method invited by the old Taoist priest has played a role, and the immortal power descended by the heavenly immortals has protected this banner, and thus protected the old Taoist priest. But since the immortal law has descended, why can't you clean up this evil ghost?

The people around did not dare to approach, the black snow drifted for nearly five minutes before disappearing, the guards came out tremblingly to clean up the mess, the old Taoist priest seemed to still have a breath, and was carried out, and when one of the prison guards wanted to take back the banner that was erected, there was an accident.

His fingers touched the flag, and the whole banner actually burned by itself, and the flame momentum was still very strong, burning extremely quickly, and within a few seconds the banner was burned to the ground, and the guards next to him hurriedly rushed up to put out the fire, and finally extinguished the fire.

The whole cell began to be under martial law, and I returned to my bedside, not knowing if it was a hallucination, but I could hear a gloomy sneer in the whispers that lingered in my ears.

This cell is definitely not clean, and judging from the current situation, it is no longer a question of whether it is clean or not, but that there must be a fierce monster at work.

It was the first time for Brick to see this kind of battle, and his frightened face changed, and he sat on the bed and looked at me and said, "This is the kind of monster you want to deal with?"

I was silent for a moment before replying, "To be honest, this is the first time I've seen such a ferocious monster, and I don't even see what is causing trouble. ”

Hearing this, the brick's face became even more ugly. “
