Chapter 557: Speculation on the Identities of the Six Gods
Black smoke flashed, and the figure of the black-robed man disappeared again, and at the same time, clusters of bright light appeared around the church, and began to drift towards Qin Yu and the others.
"Distant guests, this is specially prepared for you, Truly!" the black-robed man's voice sounded for the last time, and after that, the entire church fell silent again.
"Yin Spirit Ghost Fire, everyone pay attention, don't be burned to your body. ”
Brother Zhang Desheng shook the white flag in his hand while admonishing, and as the white flag shook, the ghost fire did not dare to approach far away, and floated towards the others.
"You can stand beside us, these ghost fires don't dare to approach!" Zhang Deyang shouted towards Qin Yu and the others.
"No need. The two young Taoist priests rejected Zhang Deyang's kindness, glanced at each other, and one of them drew a magic duel on the peach wood sword, and the peach wood sword instantly emitted light, with a breath of yang energy, and the ghost fire that had just approached immediately left.
On the other side, Master Yuanquan was reciting the scriptures, and the wooden fish in his hand was also gently ringing, as a feng shui master, he had the most keen sense of aura, and he could clearly feel that Master Yuanquan's wooden fish emitted bursts of sound waves, and those ghost fires did not dare to approach at all, every time they were swept by the sound waves, they would dim a little, and in the end, all the ghost fires were rushing towards Qin Yu's side.
Master Yuanquan saw that the ghost fire moved towards Qin Yu, and Qin Yu was still standing still, his old face was slightly wrinkled, with a hint of worry, and the Zhang family brothers looked at Qin Yu with puzzled eyes, as for the two young Taoist priests, there was a hint of schadenfreude in their eyes.
They wanted to see how Qin Yu could deal with these ghost fires without magic weapons, the ghost fire was very negative, and once it was stained, it was like a tarsal bone, and it was difficult to shoot it off.
Qin Yu watched these ghost fires approach, the expression on his face remained unchanged, until this ghost fire was only a meter away from him, Qin Yu's hands suddenly condensed. A cumbersome handprint appeared in his hand, and the momentum of the whole person also increased in an instant.
After the gesture was completed, the ghost fire was also worthy of Qin Yu's face, and Qin Yu could even ask the ghost fire to see the reflection of his face.
"Volume!"
Qin Yu snorted softly, and a whirlwind suddenly appeared out of thin air, directly rolling on the ghost fire, and then scattered in the air with the ghost fire, and in just an instant, the ghost fire of the entire church disappeared.
"Qin Jushi is a good means. No wonder Qin Jushi said before that he didn't need to use magic weapons, but he didn't expect Master Qin to understand mountain arts!"
Master Yuanquan saw Qin Yu's hand, and his face showed a look of admiration, the five Taoist techniques: mountain, medicine, life, physiognomy, and divination, led by mountain techniques, what Qin Yu had just performed was obviously a kind of technique.
The two young Taoist priests also looked at Qin Yu with some envy, the mountain technique has always been the most mysterious technique in Taoism, and almost all the attack techniques of the Taoist sect are from the mountain technique. It's just that after experiencing several disasters, most of the mountain techniques in the metaphysical world have been lost, and only a few can still have several mountain techniques handed down. But it's not something that ordinary disciples can learn.
The two brothers Zhang Desheng looked at Qin Yu's eyes and became more polite, and even nodded towards Qin Yu, which made Qin Yu sigh, no matter where he was. Its own strength is always the greatest dependence.
"Let's walk over, and I'm looking at those six statues a little weird. Qin Yu pointed to the high platform in front of him, and Master Yuanquan and the others naturally had no opinion. The group marched towards the high platform again, of course, to guard against the sneak attack of the black-robed man.
However, until they walked safely to the bottom of the high platform, the black-robed man never appeared again, and Qin Yu and the others looked at the six statues on the high platform.
"Huh, this statue?"
Master Yuanquan was the first to speak in surprise, Qin Yu's face changed suddenly, and only the Zhang family brothers and the two young Taoist priests showed puzzled expressions on their faces.
"Master Yuanquan, what do you see the origin of this statue?" asked Zhang Desheng.
"This ...... If I'm not mistaken, it's the Hungry Ghost Statue. Master Yuanquan recited the Buddha's horn three times in a row, and as soon as he said this, the faces of the Zhang brothers suddenly became ugly.
"Hungry ghost, how can there be a statue of a hungry ghost here? Is it a trick?" Zhang Desheng's tone was incredulous, as long as you have known about hungry ghosts, you will know how terrifying hungry ghosts are.
The hungry ghost, judging from the name, refers to a hungry ghost, and in a strict sense, a hungry ghost is not a ghost, but a living being, and Buddhists and Taoists have different understandings of hungry ghosts.
The place where the hungry ghost is located is recognized as being in the underworld, but it has its own space, and that place is called the Hungry Ghost Road, and those man-eating ghosts in folklore do not actually refer to the ghosts that ordinary people become after death, such ghosts will harm people, but they will not eat people, and the ghosts that can eat people refer to hungry ghosts.
These six statues, with green faces and fangs, are skinny, but their bellies are high and bulging, and the most terrifying thing is a small face, glowing green, which is the green light of hunger, like the eyes of a wolf who has not found food for several days in the winter snow, and suddenly sees its prey.
These six statues are also very expressively carved, which can make people feel the resentment of the hungry ghost, and look at the hungry ghost's eyes, as if they are seeing an abyss, which makes people shudder.
"I've heard the masters mention that more than 200 years ago, the hungry ghost disappeared from this world, and I guess there is a high possibility that the hungry ghost statue here is still tricky. The young Taoist priest behind him spoke his opinion.
"It's not a trick. Qin Yu shook his head and spoke.
"It's not a trick, could it be that these six statues are really hungry ghosts?" the young Taoist priest snorted lightly and questioned Qin Yu's words.
"Of course, these six statues are not hungry ghosts, but the six gods of this polytheistic religion are very likely to be hungry ghosts. Qin Yu's face was solemn, and he continued: "Don't forget what this polytheistic sect wants to do, they want to crown Wang Qing as the seventh god, but what is Wang Qing's identity?"
Qin Yu's words made Master Yuanquan and the others fall into silence, what is Wang Qing, they naturally know that it is a ghost, and the polytheistic sect has a ghost as a god, and then seeing the six hungry ghost statues in front of them, an idea began to emerge in the minds of the five people.
"Is this polytheistic cult trying to turn Wang Qing into a hungry ghost?"
This thought appeared in everyone's minds, and several people glanced at each other, and they all saw the trick in each other's eyes.
"It's not that simple, the hungry ghost is actually not a ghost, just because it looks a little like a ghost, the ghost is an imaginary body, but the hungry ghost has a physical existence, to become a hungry ghost, you must go through the hungry ghost road, but the hungry ghost road is a more mysterious place than the underworld, and it is not so easy to enter and exit. ”
Master Yuanquan shook his head, he knew a lot of information about hungry ghosts, so although Qin Yu's speculation was very consistent with what he saw now and the clues he had, it was only consistent.
"Whatever, I think we'll just smash these six statues, isn't this their god, I don't believe they will be indifferent. ”
The young Taoist priest obviously didn't want to go on like this, jumped on the high platform, and walked directly towards the statue, the two of them had just come out of the school not long ago, this was the first time to come to practice, and they were arrogant, and they felt that Qin Yu and the others were making a fuss, wasn't it just a few statues, as for studying here?
Being despised by the two juniors, Master Yuanquan didn't have any unhappy expression, Qin Yu looked at the figures of the two Taoist priests climbing up the high platform, and asked softly towards Master Yuanquan: "Where are these two coming from?"
"Those who came out of Longhu Mountain, disciples of the Great Sect, don't be like them. ”
"Longhu Mountain has become more and more popular in recent years, and its status has risen greatly. Zhang Desheng sneered strangely on the side.
For these two young Taoist priests who came out of Longhu Mountain, the two brothers also didn't have a good impression, when a few people became a group, the other party vaguely revealed a superior look, for the two brothers such a small inheritance did not look at it at all, when talking, the left sentence Longhu Mountain Patriarch, the right sentence Sanqing Patriarch, Li Desheng heard a lot and was annoyed, so he scolded in his heart:
"It seems that this Sanqing patriarch is your unique ancestor of Longhu Mountain, and your Longhu Mountain is awesome, but in Taoism, it is not your turn to be the first in Longhu Mountain. ”
The small team of five people is also divided into several pairs, the Zhang brothers are a group, the two young Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain are a group, and Master Yuanquan is in the middle, mainly to resolve the contradictions between the four, and now with the addition of a Qin Yu, the split thinking of this small team is even more obvious.
"Let's go, let's go up too. ”
Qin Yu showed a smile on his face, Longhu Mountain is indeed powerful, at least in Taoism, it is the Cunzài who holds the bull's nose, but this has nothing to do with him, he is not a Taoist, if these two young Taoists do not challenge his bottom line, it will be forgotten, otherwise, he doesn't care about what Longhu Mountain is not Longhu Mountain.
"Senior brother, shall we just smash it?"
"Well, isn't it just six hungry ghost statues, are you so timid, junior brother, let's destroy three of them by ourselves, we come out of Longhu Mountain, we can't embarrass the master. ”
After the two young Taoist priests on the high platform talked, one of them, known as Senior Brother, grabbed a pair of ears of the hungry ghost statue directly with both hands, and broke it out from the wall.
"Click!"
The carving on the stone wall was easily broken by him, and just as the young Taoist priest's face showed joy, a shout suddenly came from behind him.
"Hurry up!"
The voice was full of anxiety, and there was a hint of panic, the young Taoist priest heard this call, paused, he was not slow to react, knowing that something must have changed, and directly threw the statue forward, and the person was about to retreat, but it was still a step too late......
