14 drops of blood for life
The car got on the ring highway and then drove more than two hours to reach its destination.
I couldn't see my fingers, and it was very dark tonight.
Along the way, I listened to Zhao Banxian tell me a lot of common sense about Mr. Yin and Yang, which opened my eyes, and I suddenly felt that those feng shui gentlemen in the countryside were weak in the past.
As I watched Zhao Banxian turn off the car, I suddenly remembered what Fluttershy had told me to make me a great Onmyoji, and although there was only one word difference between Onmyoji and Mr. Onmyoji, I wanted to see the difference.
"Grandpa Zhao, I want to ask you a question, what is an Onmyoji?"
Zhao Banxian, who originally wanted to light a cigarette, suddenly shook his hand, then put the cigarette back into the cigarette case, and then let out a long breath and said: "Onmyoji, the momentum is the speech of Little Japan, but what is not stealing from Little Japan, this can be ignored, for example, my senior brother and I are both Mr. Yin and Yang, and some other burial mulberry people, who attach importance to the feng shui geography of Qimen Dunjia, and those who study mountains and rivers are called Mr. Feng Shui, but there are many types of onmyoji, and now they have become comprehensive players, after all, people like us, Now they are all almighty, and they know a little bit about everything. ”
"So what exactly is a real Onmyoji?"
I seem to feel that Onmyoji is a general term, but it seems to have another mystery.
Zhao Banxian smiled bitterly, and then returned with some embarrassment: "How can I answer you?" In fact, the name Onmyoji is not used much now, and most of them have been replaced by Mr. Yin and Yang, but the real Mr. Yin and Yang, in our circle, has become extinct, it is a legend! ”
I'm interested.
In my knowledge system, for these completely unsystematic, I have always believed that Mr. Feng Shui, Mr. Yin and Yang, fortune teller, and Yin and Yang master are all on the same level.
"In our industry, there are actually many doors, but in general, they are very different. In addition to the name of the onmyoji, the rest of the names, such as Mr. Yin and Yang, fortune teller, Mr. Feng Shui, warlock, alchemist, Taoist priest, etc., all have their own high and low, but the more recognized is Mr. Yin and Yang. I don't dare to say that there are no truly orthodox onmyoji in this world, but at least my senior brother and I have traveled south and north for so many years, and we have never met or even heard of it. ”
I'm a little puzzled if Fluttershy hasn't figured out the difference between Onmyoji and Mr. Onmyo!
"Why isn't there an Onmyoji?"
I asked.
Zhao Banxian smiled bitterly, then opened the car door, lit a cigarette, the fire lit up the surroundings, and I found that there was a rough path to go next.
"That's because for the Onmyoji, it's not as simple as five disadvantages and three deficiencies. An onmyoji needs several generations of management, taking the lives of too many people, and the onmyoji is originally acting against the sky, against the chaos of yin and yang, acting yin and yang, running through yin and yang, and achieving yin and yang, only then is the onmyoji. The conditions for becoming an Onmyoji are extremely harsh, and there are very few such conditions that can be met in this world, and even if the conditions for becoming an Onmyoji are met, they may not be able to survive the reversal of Yin and Yang. ”
The more I listened, the more mysterious I felt.
"What is yin and yang, yang is life and yin is death!"
"Yin and Yang are originally a great consummation, anyone has to be in this consummation for a lifetime of cause and effect, and finally return to cause and effect, can not escape fate, the so-called fate is destined, mortals do not force it. That is to say, no matter how much you struggle, the world cannot escape the cycle of yin and yang, the law of the alternation of day. But the Onmyoji is able to jump out of Yin and Yang, pick out the circle of fate, and plan his own destiny, but this is also destined to the real Onmyoji is fighting against fate all the time, only constantly contaminated with cause and effect, and prolonging life by seizing or accumulating virtue, this is the so-called life of the Onmyoji! ”
"Go on!"
I became more and more interested, and I felt that anything I was interested in at school was completely incomparable to this.
Zhao Banxian knocked all the tools into a backpack, then put them on his shoulders and turned on the flashlight.
"Let's go, let's talk as we go!"
I nodded, took a flashlight, and followed behind Zhao Banxian.
"Actually, I listened to many legends about the real Onmyoji, that is, the grandfather of my senior brother Chen Baliang, we were still very young at that time, and when we first heard about the Onmyoji, I was the same as you, pestering the master to tell us."
"There are many legends of the Onmyoji, and the master told me the most about an Onmyoji named Xu Fan, of course, this person has been dead for many years now, the reason why the master wants to talk about him is because Xu Fan is our ancestor, when Xu Fan was born, two red moons appeared in the sky, like blood. Can you guess when Xu Fan was born? ”
I shook my head, eager to know what was going on.
"The lunar year is cloudy, the moon is cloudy, and the time is cloudy! Pure Yin Life! The reason why it is in the Yin Land is because his biological mother had died nine days before, so Xu Fan continued to grow in the belly of his dead mother for nine days before he was born. As soon as Xu Fan was born, the villages he went to would become a place of death, so he killed all his relatives, all his friends, and all his fellow villagers as soon as he was born. Later, he was taken in by a traveling Taoist priest and taught him the way of yin and yang, but unfortunately this traveling Taoist priest was only at the level of a Mr. Yin and Yang, and after teaching Xu Fan for nine years, he was also killed by Xu Fan. ”
"In the end, Xu Fan had no choice but to build a big yin point for himself to seal his yin qi, and then continue his life by accumulating virtue and become a real yin-yang master, he was only nine years old that year."
"Wouldn't anyone such a person meet someone who would die?" I was a little surprised, if I became such a person one day, I might as well judge myself and never hurt others.
Zhao Banxian walked in front and shook his head slightly.
"It's not like that, as long as you master the yin and yang qi in your body, all problems will be solved, just like Xu Fan, when he was nine years old, he built his village into the largest yin cave, and then caught all the ghosts in the Quartet and locked them in the yin hole, absorbing his yin qi every day, and then he went to travel to the Quartet, cure diseases and save people, do good deeds and accumulate virtue, so that he can achieve perfection in both yin and yang virtues."
As we spoke, we had come to a hillside, and not far away was a large cemetery, and I could see that there were ghosts sitting on the graves, most of them wearing colorful shrouds, and their eyes looked at the col not far away, as if they were thinking about something.
Seeing this scene, I just wanted to speak, but Zhao Banxian directly covered my mouth, then turned off the light, and dragged me out of here quickly.
When I was far away from the cemetery, Zhao Banxian whispered in my ear: "If you speak just now, you will attract a group attack from these ghosts, because although they have no enmity with us, but we have entered their territory, at least the territory they guard, they will become hostile to us." ”
I nodded, and then whispered, "Grandpa Zhao, you continue to tell the story of Onmyoji Xu Fan, and you are all teased!" ”
Zhao Banxian shook his head, then turned around and said: "It's better to go to the master's house first, it's not early, you have to make all the preparations before eleven o'clock, it's only an hour now." When I finish this plantain essence, I'll put it on your feet, let's go! ”
I had to nod helplessly, and then followed Zhao Banxian for about ten minutes, and then arrived at a small brick house, and when I saw us coming, an obese woman hurriedly opened the door for us.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a large number of red lines and red candles in the courtyard, and I felt very strange, but Zhao Banxian on the side didn't care at all.
"Where's the patient?"
looked at the fat woman Zhao Banxian with a serious face.
The fat woman hurriedly smiled and said, "Master Zhao, my mother hasn't closed her eyes for a few nights, and she can't even sleep during the day, save her quickly!" I told you all about the situation on the phone! ”
Zhao Banxian nodded, then glanced at me and motioned for me to follow him in.
When I entered the room, I saw an old woman in her seventies lying on the bed, her eyes open, and under the light, I could see the bloodshot eyes, the dry sideburns had long been gray, and her face was haggard and vicissitudes.
"Master Zhao, you're finally here!"
When the old man saw Zhao Banxian and me walk in, a trace of excitement appeared on his face that had been sluggish, but it seemed that his body was too tired and he didn't sit up for a long time.
"Ms. Ye, can you tell me what you dreamed about tonight?"
Ye Hongmei shook her head, then nodded again, and then said in a somewhat hoarse voice: "I just dreamed that there was a very beautiful young woman who said something like thank you to me, and then said, let me follow her after I die, I will definitely be able to eat and drink spicy food!" ”
Zhao Banxian frowned slightly when he heard this, and asked, "A beautiful woman said thank you to you, and let you follow her after you die?" ”
Ye Hongmei nodded.
"Then you should be careful lately, I may come to take your life tonight, but it stands to reason that banana essence will not be interested in women, let alone an old man in the twilight."
"Then, then what should I do now, Master Zhao save me!"
Zhao Banxian shook his head slightly and said: "Originally, this banana essence was caused by you, and now it is also appropriate to ask for your life, but it is a pity that a few young people died before." ”
As soon as I heard it, was the plantain essence of my feelings raised by the one named Ye Hongmei in front of me?
Suddenly, not only I was puzzled, but even Ye Hongmei and the fat woman looked at Zhao Banxian with puzzled expressions.
Zhao Banxian lit a cigarette, then took a sharp breath and said: "There is a banana forest not far from here, from the time you called me during the day to tell me about the situation here, I already knew that it was the banana essence that pestered people to ask for their lives, but she didn't have so much strength before, and through the past few days, she has sucked the essence and blood of those young men who strayed into the banana forest, and she already has the ability to act at will, and you can give you a dream to talk to you just now, which means that she may be coming to you recently, maybe tonight!" ”
"But, but how can I raise a plantain essence, this ...... I don't even know myself......" The old man Ye Hongmei lay on the bed, looking frightened and dazed.
"Essence blood asks for life, and plantain becomes essence! Since she can enter your dreams casually, it means that you are related to her blood! ”
