Chapter 163: Using Yourself as Bait
The old man's surname is Li, and he told me when we introduced each other before.
He said that he was not from the city, but lived in a village, and the people in the village called him Li Cripple.
Last night, I was entrusted by the boss of the hotel Liu to come to the city to exorcise ghosts.
I still know some of the Five Manifest Bodhisattvas in Old Man Li's mouth, and over the years, in addition to teaching me the Three Qing Talismans and the Qiankun Body Technique, my grandfather will also talk to me about these evil things in his spare time, including information about the Five Manifest Bodhisattvas.
The Five Manifest Bodhisattvas, also known as the Five Paths.
The so-called five links are the right pass, the life pass, the luck pass, the desire pass and the financial pass.
According to my grandfather, the five gods are formed by human greed, and because they receive incense from the world all year round, they are between ghosts and gods.
If I had to define them, they would be evil gods.
Legend has it that there is not only one of the five gods, and their number depends on the intensity of human greed.
In times of extinction of humanity, they are even everywhere.
Legend has it that the gods of the Five Paths are always available to answer their needs, and this sentence is not wrong, and everyone worshipped them as saviors in the beginning.
Until one day a Taoist priest exposed their conspiracy, it turned out that they were not really selfless dedication, and they also had their purpose in doing so.
The first is to enjoy human incense in order to cultivate into a god. The second is that when they fulfill the wishes of mankind, they also have harsh conditions, the most inhumane of which is the sacrifice of human beings.
This caused some ill-intentioned people to stretch out their poisonous hands to their fellow kind, and for a while, the whole world was in chaos.
It is said that after being exposed to the true face by that Taoist, there has been a deep hatred between the Wutong God and the cultivator.
Cultivators are committed to eradicating the demons and evil in the world, and the Five Paths God is committed to killing all cultivators.
After knowing that that thing was a five-way god, many doubts in my heart could be solved.
I said that the dog was more than a thing at the beginning of the temptation of me over and over again but did not dare to do it, this is because the five gods are transformed by human evil thoughts, and naturally also inherited some of the inferior nature of human beings, such as being timid as a mouse is one of them, it doesn't know how strong I am, so it uses all means to consume my strength.
Without absolute certainty, it does not dare to make a quick move.
At the same time, the reason why I opened my eyes and still didn't see its appearance clearly, in addition to the reason why it is fast, is that they enjoy the incense of the world, and they are no longer simple demons. It can be said that human greed has made it a demigod body, and in front of it, the effect of my heavenly eye will be greatly reduced.
But another doubt arose in my heart, it stands to reason that without human worship, it is impossible for the five gods to appear in the places where humans live. Because there is no place to live without offerings, and where there are more people, the heavier the yang energy, how dare they wander in the place where the yang energy is heavy?
After thinking about it carefully, I looked at the hotel boss Liu, if not surprisingly, the reason for the appearance of this five-way god should be on him.
Boss Liu is about forty or fifty years old, and he should have been tossed by those five gods these days, and his face was full of haggardness, but between his eyebrows, it was still not difficult to see the atmosphere of wealth and nobility. In a word, at first glance, it is a rich person, or a person who has ever had money.
Boss Liu saw that my gaze fell on him, his eyes were a little evasive, and he lowered his head weakly and did not dare to speak.
Li Cripple seemed to understand what I wanted to say, and said to me: "Looking at your appearance, you should know the Five Manifest Bodhisattvas, you are right, these Five Manifest Bodhisattvas are indeed worshiped by Boss Liu." After speaking, he glanced at Boss Liu, who lowered his head and did not say a word, and said: "At this time, don't shy away from illness and avoid medical treatment, just say what you need to say." ”
Boss Liu slowly raised his head when he heard this, smiled bitterly, and then told the cause and effect.
According to him, he spent a lot of money to open this hotel two years ago. I thought that this kind of location would make a lot of money, but I never thought that there would be only a few three or five residents in the more than a month since it opened, and what is worse is that in order to win this place, he not only spent all his savings, but also borrowed a huge amount of money from the bank.
In the first month, he borrowed some money from relatives and friends to reluctantly repay the bank interest, but this kind of business is unsustainable, and if it continues, he will lose all his pants.
"I thought that the more time passed, the business would gradually improve, but this situation has lasted for more than half a year."
Boss Liu took a sip of the wine glass, and continued: "Relatives and friends have borrowed everything they can borrow, and seeing that another repayment deadline is coming, my worried hair is about to fall out in those days." But just when I was about to give up, one night a man added my friend, claiming to be a Taoist priest of Longhu Mountain, and he sold me a statue of a god, saying that the statue had been consecrated by a master, and as long as I sincerely worshipped it, I would be able to make a lot of money. ”
"Obviously a liar." Lao Cai pursed his lips when he heard this, and continued.
Hearing Lao Cai's words, Boss Liu shook his head: "I thought so at first, but just when I was about to delete that person, he sent another line of messages, he said that Guan is doing activities, I am their lucky user, not only the statue is given away for free, but also free shipping." At that time, I had no way out, so I agreed to him with the attitude of giving it a try. ”
Speaking of this, there is no need to say much about the back, the statue is the statue of the five links that I met last night, and Boss Liu's hotel can be opened until now, which shows that the business is indeed getting better, and the person who gave him should be the financial pass in the five links.
"And then?" I asked Boss Liu.
Because the Wutong God needs to be sacrificed by living people, but I don't know exactly how to sacrifice it, so I was also curious at this time.
"Later ......."
Boss Liu's eyes were slightly red, he raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes, and said: "Later, the business of the hotel did improve, basically every day was full, and I paid off my foreign debts in just three months, and my life is getting better and better." But...... Until last month, my wife died a strange and violent death, and she fell in front of the statue. ”
"Actually, I guessed it, I guessed it a long time ago." Tears fell silently from the forty or fifty-year-old man: "It's just that I didn't expect the price to be so big, and the temptation of money also made me deliberately avoid these weird places everywhere ......." ”
It seems that he also knows something, forty or fifty years old is no longer a child, and his rich experience is enough for them to know the truth that pie will not fall from the sky.
I sighed when I saw Boss Liu crying silently, just as he said. He knew something, but the lure of a lot of money made him take chances.
Just like when I am faced with the situation of knowing that I will die again and again, won't I also have some inexplicable luck psychology?
We ask for different things, but we are all one kind of people, all mortals!
Boss Liu wiped his tears and was speechless, Li Cripple patted him on the shoulder, and then added what happened afterward.
The pain of losing his wife made Boss Liu begin to wake up, he first found the Taoist priest who gave him the statue for free before, and asked him why this happened, and the other party replied to him: If you want to get something, you naturally have to exchange it for other things.
After speaking, he went offline, and Boss Liu couldn't contact him anymore.
The other party's words finally broke the last trace of luck in Boss Liu's heart, it is undeniable that before he got a clear answer from the other party, he still didn't dare to confirm that his wife's death was caused by the statue, and now he finally gave up his illusion.
After dealing with his wife's funeral, Boss Liu was afraid that his relatives would encounter another accident, so he gritted his teeth and threw the statue into the garbage heap.
But here the strange things began to become more and more apparent.
The idol that was thrown away first was inexplicable the next day
Miao appeared at the offering table again, and then the news of the haunting came from the hotel, and business plummeted, compared to the occasional three or five guests before, this time there was no more business to visit.
"That's what you see." Li Cripple said: "The top priority now is how to eradicate that Wutong evil god. I fought it last night, but as you know, it's a special thing, because I can't see it clearly, and because it's so fast, it's slippery like a cunning fox, and it's hard for me to attack it. ”
"Moreover, its strength is not weak, even if it is tough with me, I am not absolutely sure that it can win it."
I nodded, what the old man said is indeed right, as long as there are evil things such as "gods" and "immortals" in their names, their strength will not be too weak.
Besides, this dog is more cautious than the Wutong God, so it is really difficult to get rid of it.
"Senpai, what are you going to do?"
"I plan to set up a formation in the open space outside the door first, "Sanqing Qimen" is the most formation, and Qimen Dunjia is my advantage. Just introduce it into the array, and then your charm will be fully powerful, and it won't be too difficult to destroy it completely. ”
I nodded to the cripple, the idea is the most feasible at the moment.
Speaking of formations, in fact, the Sanqing Talisman also has formations, such as the Twelve Heavenly Gate Formations laid by my grandfather when he dealt with Liu Xiaorong, which is a very high-end formation.
The rune paper used in the Twelve Heavenly Gate Arrays is a Heavenly Punishment Talisman, and with my current strength, there is no hope of drawing it, and I think it will be difficult for even my grandfather to draw it.
According to my surmisasurance, drawing a talisman every night when the state and timing are at its best, thirty days a month, is a great thing to be able to succeed in a month.
And the Twelve Heavenly Gate Array, as the name suggests, requires twelve Heavenly Punishment Talismans to be laid together, so at that time, my grandfather drew the twelve Heavenly Punishment Talismans, and it was conservatively estimated that it would take about a year.
Different from the formation of "Sanqing Qimen", the formation with a spell requires the assistance of rune paper, which is called a rune array.
"Sanqing Qimen" does not need these, just change the environment according to the orientation of Qimen. Legend has it that after the cultivation of "Sanqing Qimen" to Dacheng, the grass, trees, sand and stones can be arrayed.
The name of one step at a time is not a joke.
So as soon as the old man put forward this idea, I agreed, as long as I trapped that dog than the evil god, then under the bombardment of my six five thunder talismans, I wouldn't give it?
I don't think about the situation that the formation will be broken through, after all, as the inheritor of "Sanqing Qimen", if he can't even be trapped by a five-way god, he will jump directly into the pit.
But then I thought of the loophole in this plan, and said to the old man, "But that thing is very cautious, and it is not easy to lure it into the battle." ”
Yes, the prudence of the five gods can be seen from last night, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is extremely cautious, how can it make a move without 100% certainty?
The old man nodded at me and said, "I have also taken into account the situation you said, so this time I plan to use myself as a bait." After the formation is laid out, you hide in the dark first, and I will go up alone to meet the five gods, and when the time comes, I will deliberately expose the flaws to make it succeed in the sneak attack, and I will run out in advance before losing its combat effectiveness. The blood qi of our cultivators has a great tonic effect on it, and it will definitely chase it out. ”
PS: I once swore that as long as this story was read, even if it was only one person, I would keep writing it. But now it seems that this request is a bit excessive? Otherwise...... Cut to eternal rule? Well, just kidding, it is impossible for a eunuch to be a eunuch, and it is impossible to be a eunuch in this life. How can you give up before you finish writing the thoughts in your heart? It is initially expected to end within this year, with more than one million ends, so we have to fight for our lives and come on. By the way...... Ask for a chicken feather, there is no human hair?
