【013】Rhubarb
Seeing the gray-white streamer, I stared, flipped over the big bowl in my hand, and copied it again. Then make a quick finger on the rim of the bowl.
"It's done!" I let out a low sigh.
Zhong Yuan probed over, looked at the streamer that had been trapped in the bowl, nodded, and took the big bowl.
"Hey...... This kind of thing is the most troublesome! If only Huiling's little bald donkey was here, their Buddhism is the best at transcendence. Zhong Yuan said.
Indeed, if Hui Ling was there, Xu Changsheng's blood would have been dealt with at home. There is no need to come here at all. Because in terms of transcending the soul, the people of the Buddha Sect are more powerful than the people of our Dao Sect.
After all, the king of Jizo is one of their men.
This gray-white streamer was the mutilated soul of the dog.
As I said before, people have three souls and seven spirits. Dogs, on the other hand, have only two souls and five souls.
Dogs do not have a soul, only a living soul and a soul.
What we're collecting now is the dog's soul.
And its soul has now become blood into Xu Changsheng's body.
If we want to solve that bloody evil, we must have this soul as a guide.
"Alright, stop complaining! Transform it now! I urged Zhong Yuan.
Zhong Yuan shook his head helplessly, then sat down on the spot with the bowl in both hands. Then begin to chant the scriptures.
The scriptures of the Taoist Gate are different from the scriptures of the Buddhist Gate, but they are both different paths to the same end.
While he was chanting the scriptures, I took out the five treasures that I had prepared in advance and poured it on top, and then sprinkled some incense ashes on it.
This so-called five-treasure rice is rice, wheat, corn, soybeans, and sorghum mixed together and cooked.
Because dogs are in the six realms of reincarnation, they follow the path of animals. They can't stand up to incense wax paper candle offerings, and a sprinkle of incense ash is enough. That's why I used to only put incense and didn't light it.
When you have done this, you pull out the stick of incense on the ground and press it against the back of your middle finger with your index and ring fingers.
Then he put his backhand behind him, and after reciting the soul calming formula three times in his mouth, he flicked the incense out.
I'm almost done, and the next thing is to wait for Zhong Yuan to transform the soul of the dog in the bowl.
This was not an easy task, and in comparison, it could be said that it was even more difficult than the four demons he had caught before.
Time passed minute by minute, and on this slightly cool autumn night, beads of sweat were already on Zhong Yuan's forehead.
"Mr. Tang......" Xu Changgui shouted to me.
I don't know what he wants to say, but I definitely can't disturb Zhong Yuan at this time. I quickly made a silencing gesture to him, signaling him not to speak.
He quickly nodded and shut up.
After half an hour had passed, I saw that Zhong Yuan's fingers, which had been holding still, suddenly changed, and he gently placed the bowl he was holding on the ground. Then he stood still and slowly stood up.
Seeing this, I quickly handed over a prepared axe.
"Heaven and earth are natural, the filth is scattered, the cave is mysterious, and the ...... is too yuan"
After Zhong Yuan took the axe, he slowly but forcefully spat out the magic trick in his mouth.
“…… The soul is born and the soul rises, the five elements of the ten directions, the soul returns, the five internal organs are Xuanming, the green dragon and the white tiger, the battle is in unison, the Vermilion Bird is Xuanwu, and the guards are before and after. The goddess of the Nine Heavens Xuanming Avenue is as urgent as the law! Pro! ”
With the last word "Pro" coming out, the axe in his hand slammed down on the bowl on the ground.
"Smack!"
The bowl shattered.
A gray streamer floated out.
Seeing this streamer, Zhong Yuan threw the axe, let out a loud shout, and once again pulled out the dust behind his neck and swung it.
In the wave of his dust, the streamer also rhythmized.
Seeing this, I nodded to myself, and it was done.
"Buzz!" As the movements in Zhong Yuan's hand became slower and slower, the path slowly condensed into a faint phantom.
"Woo ......"
A few dog barks sounded, and the phantom turned into the appearance of a dog.
"What is it called! Call you stew again! Zhong Yuan whispered to the dog.
Ay...... This drunken maniac, really, is as energetic as the remnants of a dog.
But not to mention, when he yelled like this, the dog's remnant soul honestly lay on the ground, whining and whispering, and didn't dare to bark.
"I'm tired!" Zhong Yuan touched the sweat on his forehead and said to me.
"Good work!" I smiled at him.
When he heard this, he glanced at me, then lowered his head and whispered to the remnant soul of the dog lying on the ground, "Follow me!" Don't make any noise, I'll stew you if you dare to make a noise. ”
With that, he walked away.
The dog's remnant whimpered a few times, looking extremely reluctant. But it was still standing up and following behind Zhong Yuan.
Seeing this, I smiled bitterly and shook my head. Then he pointed to a position next to him and said to Xu Changsheng: "Dig a pit here, bury all these things, and walk home by yourself after burying them." ”
As I spoke, I pointed to the smashed bowl on the floor and the five-treasure rice.
When Xu Changsheng heard this, he quickly picked up a hoe and began to dig a pit.
I hurried to the side of the road.
"I'll lead the way ahead, be careful!" When I passed Zhong Yuan, I said to him.
Zhong Yuan nodded.
I came to the side of the road, opened the door directly and got into the car, and said to Xiao Qiu who was in the cab: "Go!" ”
When Xiao Qiu heard this, he drove the car and slowly walked forward as soon as he let go of the handbrake.
Zhong Yuan took the remnant soul of the dog, so naturally he couldn't get in the car.
I opened the car window and kept sticking my head out to look behind: "Xiao Qiu, slow down, don't be too far away from him." ”
Xiao Qiu answered, lightly clicked the brakes, and slowed down the car even more.
In this way, it took us about half an hour to return to Xu Changsheng's home.
After arriving home, Zhong Yuan looked at me and said, "I said, next time there is such a thing, you tell me in advance, and I will call Huiling's little bald donkey." With him here, I don't have to work so hard. ”
"Hard! Great work! I said to him with a smile.
"I'm telling you, this matter is over, if you don't have a good drink with me, I will definitely break off your friendship!" Zhong Yuan said.
"Okay, no problem. Isn't it just drinking? I smiled and patted him.
"Then hurry up, I'll leave it to you!" He looked back at the dog that had been following him.
The dog was a little stunned at this time, and it was constantly twisting its head to look at everything around it, and its mouth was whining. It's normal, after all, this was once its home.
"Hey, what's your dog's name?" I asked Xu Changsheng.
Xu Changsheng had already gotten out of the car with Xiao Qiu's support, and after hearing my question, he replied to me, "It'...... It's called rhubarb. ”
Rheum?
Hehe, this name is really the standard for dogs! I don't know how many dogs have this name.
"Call! Come on, call it now! I said to Xu Changsheng.
"Huh? Call it? It...... Where is it? Xu Changsheng asked me.
"What are you talking about? If you call it, you can call it! I waved my hand.
When Xu Changsheng heard this, he laughed dryly, and then shouted a little awkwardly: "Rhubarb!" ”
I turned my head to look at the dog at the gate of the courtyard, and saw that it pricked up its ears and looked around.
"Scream again, louder!" I hurriedly said to Xu Changsheng.
Xu Changsheng cleared his throat, and then shouted: "Rhubarb!! ”
This time, the dog reacted, and it saw Xu Changsheng.
"Wow! Wang Wang ...... "It ran towards Xu Changsheng, and then pounced happily.
However, with this pounce, it directly passed through Xu Changsheng's body and landed on the other side.
It doesn't have a physical body now! It's just a weak soul leaving, and naturally can't get close to the master.
It didn't touch its owner, and it became a little anxious for a while, and kept circling around Xu Changsheng: "Wangwang...... Woo ......"
Seeing this scene, my nose couldn't help but feel a little sour.
What a good dog!
Even if it was beaten to death by Xu Changsheng, now that it sees its master again, it is still so loyal, hoping to be close to its master and get some comfort.
"Let's go! Come home! I shouted to Xu Changsheng: "Shout as you walk." ”
Xu Changsheng nodded and shouted again: "Rhubarb!" ”
The dog was still a little lost just now, but in the shouting of the owner, it got better in an instant. It jumped around Xu Changsheng's feet, spinning back and forth: "Wangwang...... Woo Woo ......"
There were still people in the Xu family who were burning incense wax paper candles in the courtyard, and after they saw all this, they began to talk about something in a low voice. I don't have time to worry about them now, but I keep an eye on the changes in the dogs.
"Rhubarb!"
"Rhubarb!"
"Rhubarb!"
……
In Xu Changsheng's call, the dog jumped and followed Xu Changsheng all the way to the bedroom.
"Lie down!" After arriving in the bedroom, I said to Xu Changsheng.
He lay down on the bed as he was told.
And the dog he brought back sat honestly on the edge of the bed, sticking out his tongue and looking at him.
"Xiao Qiu! Ready! Shall I do it? After seeing Xu Changsheng lying down, I asked Xiao Qiu on the side.
"No problem! Come on! He palmed his hand, and there were a few more silver needles in his hand in an instant......
