Chapter 15: The Murder
A piece of paper clothing and gods are roughly divided into three categories, one is used to find ghosts, the other is used to suppress and trap ghosts, and the last type of gods and spirits are used, which are used to kill ghosts.
"Senior sister, the ghost is dead, can you still kill it?" I asked curiously.
Lilac said: "Of course, although the cycle of cause and effect is endless, there is no reason why it cannot be destroyed. Ghosts are Qi that people have not dispersed after death, and they refuse to be reincarnated, and they can beat Qi with Qi, of course, they can scatter their beaten souls! ”
"That's... What about them when they are gone? I subconsciously swallowed.
Lilac gave me a blank look and told me bluntly, "How do I know? Probably gone. ”
"It's... It's too miserable, isn't it? "I can't help but feel a little sorry for the evil ghost who was smashed by the virgin's altar.
When Lilac heard this, she couldn't help but sneer: "Are you sick?" How can anyone care about evil spirits! Forget it, let's not talk about this, if you don't want to fight them, then the magic products used to suppress ghosts are a good consideration. ”
The ghost-seeking products are similar to soul-attracting butterflies and spirit-summoning flags, one is to take the initiative to find them, and the other is something that attracts ghosts. These are the simplest of the purities, and can be used by a layman like me who can't do it yet.
After the ghost is found or attracted, it is necessary to use the soul lock lamp of the trapped ghost, or the altar of worship to suppress the ghost. Depending on the situation, the gods used are also different, and the soul locking lamp is similar to the formation, which is suitable for using the spirit banner to attract ghosts and trap them.
And the altar of the gods is very simple suppression, after finding the ghosts through the soul butterfly, the tower of the gods will be sacrificed and it will be over.
As for whether or not the ghost can be suppressed, it depends on the gap between the ghost and the sorcerer, if the sorcerer Qi is strong enough, it is also possible for the smelter to smash the ghost.
And ghost killing supplies, there is one of the most commonly used in a piece of paper, called Soul Burial Pill. Although it is called Dan, it is actually a word 'extinguished' written on a piece of yellow paper soaked in corpse water with cinnabar mixed with pearl powder.
When writing, the practitioner's Qi will be stored in a medium of cinnabar mixed with pearl powder.
Stuff this piece of paper into the ghost's mouth, and the power of the Soul Burial Pill will be revealed, killing the ghost.
This method is simple, effective and fast, and it is not easy to be detected by ghosts, and many practitioners will use it, among which the most used are of course the practitioners of the 'One Paper Clothes Crown' and the White Cloth Gate.
After Lilac told me about the effects of several spiritual and divine products, she collected a large bag according to the degree to which I could use them, and then threw them all to me.
I wondered if I could take the boy and girl with me, but before I could finish my sentence, I was knocked by Lilac. said that I was going to do something, people were doing happy events, I took two paper people to go, I'm afraid I would have to be beaten to death if I wasn't killed by ghosts!
"Calculate the time, it should be enough to catch up and go back and forth." Ding Xiang glanced at the time on the clock and calculated, "I hope that Zhangjia Village is not too far away, we will come back after picking up your childhood sweetheart, and come back to open the door before eleven o'clock." ”
I carried the big bag on my back, and although it was mostly paper paste, it was still quite heavy when I packed it.
Hearing Lilac say this, I couldn't help but ask with some curiosity: "Senior sister, I'm a little curious." Can you tell me what would have happened if I hadn't opened at 11 o'clock? ”
"Then today next year, Senior Sister won't forget to burn some paper money for you." Lilac said without hesitation, and looked at me with a very compassionate and affirmative gaze.
My scalp tingled, pulled the corners of my mouth, and smiled dryly: "Then let's hurry up..."
Yes, I didn't understand what was going to happen, but I scared myself half to death!
Looking at the time, it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon. The two of us had a casual meal to fill our stomachs, then stopped a taxi and told the taxi driver the address of Zhangjiacun that Lu Jia told me.
Unexpectedly, when the taxi driver heard that we were going to Zhangjia Village, his face changed, his head shook like a rattle, and he refused to go for anything.
It's like this after stopping several cars in a row, not to mention Lilac wondering, even I'm depressed.
"Senior brother, is that Zhangjia Village a terrible place?" Lilac clasped her hands around her chest and joked against a lamppost.
I rolled my eyes, to say terrible, it's scary for us, right? I know there are ghosts, and I want to go there!
At this time, I stopped a car again, and as soon as I said that we were going to Zhangjia Village, the driver's uncle's face changed, but he didn't run off the accelerator like the previous ones.
"What are you doing there, young man? It's haunted! The driver said to me with a straight face.
I was stunned, haunted?
As soon as I heard that it was haunted, Lilac also came over, and I looked at each other, and we were a little puzzled, and we were just guessing, why was it really haunted?
"Uncle, what's wrong with Zhangjiacun?"
Xu saw that Lilac was beautiful, and when she asked, the driver was willing to say a few more words: "Alas, strange things have been going on for several days." Do you know that two days ago, a car fell from the bridge in Donghua City? ”
I nodded, this matter was told to me by 'Zhang Bin', and said that Lu Jia was in the car.
"That car, all the people sitting in it are from Zhangjia Village. Seven people, all drowned. The driver sighed heavily.
I was secretly taken aback, this is different from what Zhang Bin told me, the people in the car are all from Zhangjia Village? What about Lu Jia and Su Wen?
I listened more attentively to the driver's story, and the driver lit a cigarette, leaned on the car and took a puff, and continued: "Those are all going to the city to work, and they all came back by car together, but they all fell into the river before they thought about it." Alas, the will of heaven is unpredictable, and later the people of each family took their corpses back and brought them back to the ancestral hall of the Zhang family, intending to go out of the funeral seven days later. Unexpectedly, something happened on the first night of the corpse returning. Someone was walking at night and saw a person in front of him, and he wanted to walk together, but he didn't expect that person to turn around and even have a face! A bloody patch, the eyeballs are gone! ”
The driver's voice seems to want to scare us, but I, who have really seen ghosts, have some immunity to this kind of ghost story, regardless of whether it is true or not, but it will not be so easy to be scared.
But Lilac exclaimed a little very cooperatively, and asked what happened later?
The driver seemed to be quite satisfied with Lilac's reaction, and continued: "Since that day, every family has not dared to go out in the middle of the night. But at night, you can hear wet footsteps on the street, and a very bad rancid smell. Now no one dares to go to Zhangjia Village, you two little couples, don't go there to find bad luck. ”
The driver kindly reminded me that I was just about to say that he made a mistake, but Lilac hugged my arm and said, "We are not a couple, we are the heavenly master who catches ghosts!" ”
As she spoke, Lilac also blinked, with a playful appearance, making it difficult to take her words seriously.
The driver master was also amused by her, and said, "Catch the ghost heavenly master? It's just you, but Zhangjiacun really invited a Taoist priest to carry the coffin out of the funeral yesterday. ”
"Yes, that's our master." Lilac lied without blinking her eyes, and I could only bite the bullet and nod along with her words.
To put it mildly, this driver master is finally willing to take us to Zhangjia Village. On the way, he also said that he was actually from Zhangjia Village, but because the village was haunted, he didn't dare to go back for several days.
In the car, I was thinking about what I might encounter after arriving in Zhangjia Village, and I was a little scared and a little ridiculously expectant.
Zhangjia Village is actually not far from Hulukou, ten minutes by car, and you can get there after a tunnel. The driver didn't dare to go too close, so he left us outside the village from a distance, and it took more than ten minutes to walk over.
It was a village of about 100 families, but when Lilac and I entered the village, we felt deserted, there was no one on the street, the door was closed, and there were sharp weapons hanging on the door frame.
It seems that the driver did not lie, and the village is eerie and scary in broad daylight.
I swallowed my saliva and began to look for Zhang Bin's home by address, and a cold cool air blew out of the village, giving me goosebumps in this July and August weather.
"Senior sister, you say... Where have all the people in the village gone? I asked quietly.
Lilac shook her long hair and said indifferently, "Who knows? Maybe they're all dead. ”
"Huh? Don't scare me! "Knowing that Lilac was deliberately scaring me, I couldn't help but feel a little furious in my heart.
Suddenly, a soft and cool palm grabbed my right hand, it was this beautiful Xiangxi girl from beside me.
Lilac grabbed my hand and said confidently: "Don't worry, junior brother, senior sister, I will protect you!" ”
I looked at her smiling face, a little relieved, and a little ashamed. I'm a big man, and I have to rely on a girl to provide a sense of security, I'm really ashamed.
"Teacher..."I was just about to speak, when suddenly through Lilac's shoulder, I was shocked to see a dark ghost behind her!
Dripping with water, he appeared silently, reaching out and grabbing Lilac's slender neck.
"Be careful!" I don't know where I got the courage, and my only reaction was to pull the unsuspecting lilac behind me.
And the ghost that emitted black gas immediately stared at me, grinning and revealing a yin smile, and the hand that was originally stretched out to Lilac's neck suddenly twisted my neck and lifted me up!
"Lin Shao, Lin Shao, you dare to leave a piece of paper and come here!" The ghost laughed hideously, his eyes, nose, and ears were bleeding horribly, and his hand became harder and harder, almost breaking my neck, "Rest in peace, today is your death day!" ”
The voice is...... Li Zhao?
I struggled in vain, my brain, dizzy from lack of oxygen, dizzily reacting the name of the owner of this voice. Just when I thought I was going to die, suddenly the ghost screamed and let go of me.
"Ahh
His screams were terrible and terrible, but also terrifying, and I looked at him with my neck covered and coughed, and saw six little paper figures surrounding him, spinning at high speed, strands of blood-red silk emanating from them, like nets, binding him.
The puppet stand-in that my sister made for me protected me!
"No, what is this!?" The ghost screamed miserably, baring a mouth full of fangs, but I could tell he couldn't move, trapped!
"Senior brother, feed him with the Soul Burial Pill!" Lilac's voice sounded eagerly behind me. Without allowing me to hesitate, I trembled and grabbed a piece of Soul Burial Pill from my pocket, crumpled it into a ball and stuffed it into the ghost's mouth.
The ghost looked at me with an incredible gaze, and after I fed the Soul Burial Pill, his body continued to crack and emit black gas, and finally gradually changed back to the appearance of a normal person, and then completely shattered!
I could see his last appearance clearly, it was Li Zhao's face.
Why is he here? Why did you become a ghost and want to harm me?
I pondered these questions in confusion when Lilac, who stood up, pulled me abruptly and ran out of the village, and for the first time, the girl, who had always been calm, showed a panicked look: "Run! Brother, this village is a dead end! ”
"What?" I was dragged out of the way, but no matter how we ran, the entrance to the village was still out of reach, and it felt like it was getting farther and farther away.
I realized something and quickly grabbed the clove.
Lilac's face also changed, and she muttered, "The ghost hits the wall..."
I felt a sense of foreboding in my heart, took a deep breath, and slowly turned my head.
The white paper is fluttering, an ancestral hall with an ancient atmosphere, not far behind us, in the courtyard, there are seven mahogany coffins side by side, bright red as if to drip blood!
