Chapter 353: Catching Spirits in the Ancestral Hall
Uncle Song didn't believe me at first, after all, for him, I was always a student.
But thinking that I am Xu Youcai's apprentice, I am a little skeptical of my words, and I am not sure.
I didn't bother to reason with him as an old man, so I said directly:
"Tonight, I'm going to meet that thing in the ancestral hall. ”
Uncle Song hurriedly waved his hand and said:
"This can't be done, I can't let your juniors take risks, it's okay if it's some kind of beast gangster, it's a ghost after all......"
Uncle Song sat up easily as he spoke.
Not only that, but his sickly pale skin gradually improved, and even his dry lips became rosy.
It just so happened that the old woman came in to deliver tea, although her eyes were not good, but when she saw her wife sitting up again, she immediately said happily:
"Old Song, your illness has finally improved, and I haven't seen you sit up for a week. ”
Uncle Song himself twisted his neck and arms in wonder, as if he also had strength.
He looked at me, then looked down at the soul soothing talisman on his chest, and asked incredulously:
"Did your spell work?"
……
I heard Xu Youcai say before that people's three souls and six spirits are actually very fragile, and they are controlled by the three life lamps on their shoulders and on the top of their heads.
After encountering a fright, the three lights will shake.
If it is extinguished, at least it will be possessed by evil spirits, and it will be controlled by the devouring yang energy, and at worst, it will have to lose its soul.
At the beginning, my soul was beaten out by force.
If it is just shaken, then it will be like Uncle Song, who will be frightened and unstable, and will be seriously ill.
If you don't deal with it in time and stabilize the soul, over time, the soul will detach itself and the body will die.
And those who were directly scared to death were the souls whose three life lamps were extinguished at the same time, and the three souls and seven spirits were instantly frightened out of their bodies.
Therefore, why do you always listen to the old man say: don't look back when you encounter any movement while walking at night......
It is an old saying handed down by rural Taoist priests in ancient times.
In fact, after learning the Tao with Xu Youcai, as long as you understand the truth, this situation will basically not occur.
Here, too, I would like to give you advice.
The world is so big that there are many things.
At the end of science is theology, and the unexplained events are countless.
It is better to believe that it is there than to believe that it is not.
If ordinary people encounter something strange in the middle of the night, don't panic, the life lamp will not go out, and ordinary yin spirits will definitely not be able to get close.
Even if you don't know the Dao, just keep your heart.
For example, if you recite mantras and scriptures silently, you can't keep praying in your heart, or silently reciting poems and singing.
Just don't distract yourself and walk that way, and you'll be safe.
……
It's a bit far, but then again, the function of the soul suppression talisman is to calm the minds of ordinary people and stabilize their turbulent souls.
Uncle Song was frightened by a ghost, and it was useless to drink medicine.
After stabilizing the soul, the body will naturally heal.
After a good night's sleep, you will definitely be able to get out of bed and walk and eat two bowls of rice the next day.
I said indifferently:
"This is the soul suppression talisman, the first talisman that Master taught me. ”
Uncle Song's eyes were full of gratitude, and he seemed to recall the days when Xu Youcai was there:
"If Immortal Master Xu is still here, how can it be like this......"
sighed, and Uncle Song finally made a decision.
"Okay then, I'll let a few brave men accompany you to the ancestral hall to catch ghosts tonight. ”
"You...... Are you really confident?"
I nodded and said confidently:
"It's useless to say anything now, let's see the results. ”
……
There was something wrong with the ancestral hall, and I can't go back for the time being.
So after making a phone call to Xu Zixuan to explain the situation, he waited in the village.
Although Uncle Song was recovering from a serious illness, his body still needed to recuperate, so he didn't let him get up.
He found the big bull brother he met before and helped me arrange things.
When Brother Da Niu heard that I was going to the ancestral hall to catch ghosts, the eyes of the two of them changed when they looked at me.
I used to admire the masters who could hunt demons and subdue demons, and so did these two brothers.
After leaving Uncle Song's house, Da Niu couldn't wait to ask:
"Brother Li Xiao, do you really dare to go to the ancestral hall to catch ghosts?"
Erniu also said curiously:
"That ghost scared the villagers to death. ”
I smiled indifferently:
"If you don't believe me, you two will follow me tonight. ”
Although the two brothers were afraid, they still had stubbornness in their bodies, and when they saw that I didn't have the slightest fear, their hearts were settled.
Da Niu asked again:
"How many more people do you need to help? The men who can be invited from the village may ......."
Da Niu said, a little lost.
After all, without Xu Youcai's shouting, there are indeed few people who are willing to come out in the middle of the night to take risks.
I pointed to them:
"Just the two of you, enough. ”
The two brothers looked at each other, but their personalities dictated them, and in an instant, their gritted teeth turned into motivation.
At their invitation, dinner was over.
The father of the two Da Niu was a little lame, and his mother died early, but the table of good dishes was by no means ambiguous.
The personality is the same as the two sons, and he belongs to the tough guy.
It is said that Xu Youcai saved his life and was lame, but his life was saved.
He had long known that I was Xu Youcai's apprentice and was convinced of my strength.
After hearing that I was going to the ancestral hall to catch ghosts in person, I kept pursing my lips and nodding excitedly.
In addition, I only took his two sons, and it was another heartfelt statement that I hope that my son will be Jackie Chan.
I didn't say much, I could only smile and nod my head.
Thinking that if there is a chance in the future, I can teach the two brothers, either spells or fists.
After chatting and eating, it was already dark outside.
I saw that it was about the same time, and I stood up.
Da Niu's father suddenly became nervous, supported the table and stood up, and instructed:
"You have to be careful. ”
I nodded and smiled:
"Don't worry, sir. ”
With that, I glanced at the two brothers and walked out the door.
The two brothers were already ready to go, with ropes on their bodies and firewood knives pinned to their waists, nervously and excitedly following me.
Although it was only past seven o'clock, the village was already dark and quiet.
Especially in the forests in the mountains behind the countryside, there will be a strange bird call from time to time, and the atmosphere is particularly weird.
Before the ancestral hall had an accident, there were still people who walked at night.
Now the whole village road is empty.
Erniu was a little younger after all, and looked around at the dark corners around him with some fear, and asked in a low voice:
"Will that ghost run out of the ancestral hall?
I shook my head and said:
"No, it's going to come out early, and it should only be able to move around the ancestral hall. ”
I finally arrived at the ancestral hall, and I don't know if it's a psychological reason, but I feel that the whole ancestral hall looks even more gloomy.
The surrounding temperature dropped, and the cold wind blew on the face, blowing the door of the ancestral hall softly.
I didn't rush in, but looked through the crack in the door to see what was going on, and there was no movement for the time being.
Then, I decisively took out the large yellow paper left over from the ring last time.
He drew Zhang Zhen's coffin talisman as quickly as possible, and said to the two brothers after putting away the pen:
"You two are guarding the door with this talisman, and you can't let it run. ”
