Chapter 69: Soul Restraint Spell
After another twenty minutes or so, there was finally movement over there.
I saw a group of evil cultivators hoisting something that looked like a coffin from the pit, the two ends were the same size, and the coffin shook violently when it was lifted, so it shouldn't weigh much.
As soon as the coffin hit the ground, two more people stepped forward to open the paper-like thing wrapped around the coffin, and then opened the coffin and lifted out a mud-gray dried corpse-like thing from inside, and wrapped it in a cloth......
I wondered even more, what the fuck is this plane!
Running so far to rob the tomb and rob the corpse?
After waiting for a while, I saw Xu Xu coming over, and some subordinates carried a sacrificial table and placed it at the feet of the dry corpse.
After Xu Xu said a few words to Huang Shengying, he lifted off the black robe and revealed the gossip robe.
This is the way to do it!
Evil cultivators are still Taoists in essence, and they are all the same in the use of some Taoism, so many Taoist priests who are inconvenient to reveal their identities will wear Taoist robes on the inner layer and show them when needed!
After Xu Xu let people uncover the shroud, he held the Tai Chi Yin-Yang Mirror in his hand, and inserted a gray banner beside him, and a Tong Ze behind him held a charm, and the two of them walked slowly around the dry corpse, and there were words in their mouths.
Necromancy!
This is a typical Taoist method of conjuring spirits, which can generally be used in folk to summon spirits, consolidate souls, and cross customs for children under the age of three......
Adults are generally severely frightened or extremely stimulated, and the frightened soul can be summoned back to the body by using the spirit conjuring method, which is also known as "receiving shock" and "shouting soul".
That face banner is called the spirit flag, also called the spirit flag, and it usually stores a large amount of yin energy.
When doing this, the caster uses the yin qi in the banner as a guide to attract the undispersed soul of the deceased to come and suck it;
Then the soul is covered by the dark side of the Tai Chi mirror, and then the soul is pointed into the corpse;
Finally, the yin charm is used to seal the acupuncture points of the corpse, and after the yang face of the Tai Chi mirror is enlightened, the soul that has not entered the underworld will awaken again in its own body, thus completing the whole ritual.
However, if the corpse is left for more than seven days, it can only attract a mutilated soul, and this incomplete soul represents the person's obsession before death.
Use spiritism on dried corpses, this trick has been used before, but it doesn't work!
The formation of a dried corpse, even in a dry environment such as the desert, takes a few weeks to a month for the water and fat in the human body to dry naturally.
And judging from the paper-like substance that wrapped the coffin, and the mud-gray similar pulp, judging from this dried corpse, it is very likely that it is far more than just a few years, but thousands of years!
Spiritualizing a thousand-year-old corpse is like scraping and massaging a dying person......
Of course, Xu Xu will not be an ordinary Taoist priest, and it is likely that Huang Shengying instructed him to do this, so ......
Sure enough, after Xu Xu circled around the dried corpse a few times, Huang Shengying walked to the sacrificial table, took out a clay pot and tilted it towards the dried corpse, and a black object the size of a human head fell on the dried corpse.
The black thing was like an illusory spirit, and as soon as it touched the dried corpse, it seeped in!
At this time, Xu Xu waved the soul flag, and the yin qi around him was immediately loud, and there was a faint long cry of whimpering and wailing, and the low, hazy, sad and sad whimper was like a lone wolf's long howl, floating from afar......
The lone wolf looked at me in amazement, and his inquiring eyes kept looking at me.
Zhuo Yizhu also looked confused, it seems that the Dao theory inheritance of the Innocent Palace is a little weak!
When the palace master Zhuo came back after urinating and saw this scene, he whispered: "Spiritualism, huh? No, yes...... It's Soul Arrest!"
Not bad!
Soul Arrest is an upgraded version of Soul Conjuring, and although the difference is small, it belongs to the Dao Gate Forbidden Technique.
Soul detention, as the name suggests, is to use a part of the soul of the deceased to forcibly summon the living soul, even if the deceased has passed away and become insects, birds, livestock, and is a forbidden technique that ignores the way of heaven.
Summoned spirits are detained in the place designated by the caster, or corpses or artifacts or furnaces, and once detained, only the soul will be scattered.
Of course, there are huge limits to the use of Soul Restraint!
First of all, there must be a part of the soul of the deceased; secondly, the deceased had an obsession before death, although the soul has been subsumed into the underworld, but the obsession of the yin spirit is still floating in the world, which is very difficult, and it is rarely recorded in the Taoist classics; finally, the requirements for the caster are very high, at least there must be an innate realm!
Xu Xu stood next to the head of the dried corpse after shaking the flag, and waited quietly with Huang Shengying.
I was a little worried and a little hesitant, worried about who this dried corpse was?
The current situation is still unclear, even if I have already guessed that the evil cultivators should be here to wake up the Zombie Ancestor generals, do I have the confidence to face the generals?
In the past two days, I have been calling for Tiger Evil, but since the last time it absorbed the Carefree Boys, it seems to have fallen into a deep sleep, and there is no response to my screaming or scolding.
Acting now, can it disrupt the Shinto Alliance or the evil plan behind it?
What are my odds of winning?
If I'm alone, I'd be willing to take a risk.
But now, not only do I have to stop the plan of the Heavenly Evil, but I also have a greater responsibility - to save the daughter of the Zhuo Palace Master and the other captured Daomen......
At this time, the evil cultivator's side reacted.
I saw that the dry corpse was shaking like a convulsion, Xu Xu and a few people held it down, and Huang Shengying held a tower-like thing in his hand and kept dangling at it!
Because of the distance, and we didn't dare to get too close, we couldn't see what it was.
The Zhuo Palace Master was puzzled: "The Soul Restraint Technique is a forbidden technique, and the conditions for casting the spell are extremely harsh, is it ...... Did they really succeed?"
The old man trafficker once said that there is a precedent for the success of soul arrest at the door of the road:
It is said that in the mid-80s, there was a rich man in a coastal province, whose family wealth was so rich, but the family was not prosperous, and he only had a daughter when he was nearly 50 years old.
Maybe it's the fate of this rich man, when his daughter grew up to five years old, she didn't know what she was frightened and got a fright, three souls and seven spirits went to two souls and five spirits, she was in a coma and had no spiritual sense, and no matter what the old experts in the big hospital could not cure, this rich man scattered all his family wealth and invited people who were able to save his daughter, and he would rather spend all his money to wait.
Coincidentally, at that time, an elder of Xuanmen traveled here, and by chance, he was acquainted by Fujia, so he reluctantly accepted this errand in line with the principle of saving people's lives.
The bizarre thing is that even if this Xuanmen elder summons souls, solidifies souls, exorcises evil spirits, searches souls and other spells for a while, he still doesn't use them.....
This elder didn't know which nerve was touched, and in anger, he moved his competitive heart, ignoring the rules of the Dao Sect and forcibly urging the soul restraint technique!
Soul Arrest Spell:
Wandering souls, where to go,
Two souls summon, five spirits in the dark!
The earthly world, the yang world and the underworld, it is a pity that you wander alone and have no place to return......
Now with your remnant soul, the blood of your loved ones,
General of the Three Realms Wandering Road, Yin Division of the Five Directions,
Quill XXX has lost his soul so far!
The gates of heaven are opened, and the gates of earth are opened,
I am in a hurry like a law, edict, detention!
......
After the soul arresting spell was cast, the soul of Fujia's daughter returned to its place, refreshed, and Fujia was overjoyed to hold a three-day banquet to thank him.
Three days later, his daughter only shouted that her heart hurt at night, and she was unable to return to heaven when she was in a hurry to save her......
When the Xuanmen elder saw this, he realized that this technique was against the way of heaven and harmed people, and he deeply regretted that he had used the forbidden technique without permission, so that this innocent little girl could not enter the underworld again!
The elder never went out again, and closed himself to death as a warning!
......
I told this story to Lone Wolf and Zhuo Yizhu, and the two of them sighed.
Two quarters of an hour passed, the dry corpse over there was no longer convulsive, Huang Shengying also received the tower-like magic weapon, and Xu Xu stretched out his hands to wrap the dry corpse again.
After doing all this, the evil cultivator's side returned to calm.
Zhuo Gong Master said: "I heard that the soul of the deep moon is to be detained, and you need to use supreme mana to help, what kind of Taoist artifact is this holy woman's hand?"
I shook my head, too far away to feel any breath.
Several people thought about it for a long time and had no clue, so they had to arrange for someone to rest at night.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, the evil cultivators set off again.
The fat man was so tormented that he lost his temper and followed me with a wilt, but the lone wolf and Zhuo Yizhu were energetic and always walked in front of the team.
After continuing to walk for two days, it was not until the lone wolf told me that the dry food brought by the camel was almost insufficient, and the cultivators in front finally stopped.
The fat man looked at the bare desert in the distance and scolded:
"If you talk about these donkey days, you have to pick a place where this bird doesn't......
Look at my fat man, he has lost a lot of weight, and he wants to go on again, I ...... I'll summon the heavens and thunder to slash them now!"
I can't stand it anymore, although I grew up in the mountains, and it is not a problem to climb over the mountains, but tracking in this endless desert is a double torture of body and spirit.
The cultivators stopped at the top of a huge sand dune, and we were far away, so we couldn't observe the situation behind the dune.
After a little trimming, the cultivators lined up and went down to the dunes.
When we carefully climbed the sand dunes, an ancient city half-hidden in the yellow sand suddenly appeared!
Looking east, I saw a huge sand mountain across the sky.
At the foot of the dunes, a north-south stretch of sand is lined with earthen walls, and the ruins are scattered behind a protective wall built around the dunes, and the yellow sand covers half of the ancient city like flowing water......
From a distance, the waves-like yellow sand swirls around the ancient city, piling up layer by layer, surrounding the dark gray protective wall like a dormant dragon, guarding this silent ancient city!
Magnificent!
This is the feeling of the ancient city at first sight!
While admiring the grandeur of the ancient city, I also admired the people who designed this ancient city in my heart:
In the east, huge natural sand hills stand tall to block the rolling yellow sand, while in the west, the vast flat sand is built with rammed earth and mud walls!
The remains of the city's government offices, prefectures, cangao, Buddhist temples, houses and streets are still faintly recognizable......
The buildings of the ancient city are all earth-colored, scattered in the rectangular sand valley, although the wind and sand have blown for many years, the main body is still upright, proving that its building materials are all made of local materials!
The yellow sand that was originally not viscous and hard enough was tamped into soil, and then built on the sand base!
I can't help but sigh at the difficulty of building this ancient domain in front of me, I don't know which side and country built this huge and complicated project, and how much manpower, material and financial resources have to be consumed......
The cultivators didn't seem to be in the mood to enjoy such a beautiful view, and continued to advance in a straight line towards the distant city wall.
I took out my binoculars and looked, and saw a gate at the southern end of the city wall, surrounded by a black dot.
People, dense people!
Although it is far away, it is roughly estimated that there are about two or three hundred people in this crowd!
My hand jumped, and the telescope in my hand almost fell to the ground.
Two or three hundred!
So many people from the Shinto Alliance are here?
A drum beat in my heart, so many evil cultivators are relying on the hands of this group of people behind me......
It's really a fight, one person and one soak of urine is enough for us to stand it!
The fat man took the binoculars and looked at it, trembling on his body, and said bitterly:
"Brother, beat up some people......! How many days does this have to be called......? I'm sick to my stomach, soak first!"
Zhuo Yizhu was also shocked after reading it, and said with a trembling mouth:
"Fat ...... The fat man waited for me, let's go and pull ...... together I'll get out of the paper!"
In the past few days, we have even used up the toilet paper, and we have rubbed on the sand after pulling it, and I didn't expect Zhuo Yizhu to secretly leave paper, which made me want to pull it......
