Chapter 50: Witch Spell Seals and Taoist Circles
This result was something we didn't expect, and everyone was stuck in place all at once, not knowing what to do.
Today's weather is good, the sun is out, there is no fog, and the green trees, green vines and tall wild grass are particularly vibrant even in late autumn under the bright sun.
The school is built on a hill, behind which is a forest that extends into the canyon, and the lush shade of the trees envelops the entire school, forming a staggered contrast of light and darkness with the sun-lit canyon, making the school look even more gloomy, and the dilapidated buildings that have been eroded by the wind and rain make this gloomy feeling even more suffocating.
The main entrance of the school is more than ten meters away from us, and this area is like a separation zone, with few weeds and a large crusty mud floor. The paint outside the walls had almost lost color, and the iron gate had been so badly corroded that it looked like it would only take a breeze to blow it down. However, it seems strange to me that after all these years, it is reasonable to say that the area around the school should have been covered with vines, but the fact in front of me is that the walls that can be seen by the eye, including the iron gates, are clean, and there is not a trace of vines crawling.
Through the iron gate of the grid, you can see that the yard is full of fallen leaves, and there is no trace of a plant or even a weed, and nothing strange appears. However, not seeing it does not mean that it does not exist, and the Taoist priest also said that such a thing as a ghost is either acquired with spiritual eyes, or born with yin and yang eyes, otherwise it can only be seen with the blessing of some strange things such as lychee leaves, cow tears and other foreign objects.
And if the ghost you encounter is extremely powerful, then even these foreign objects are useless, and you can only rely on your own spiritual eyes or yin and yang eyes to make them manifest.
The Taoist priest's spiritual eyes are not working from time to time, he didn't see the ghost when he heard the ghost laughing just now, I asked him to look at it again, he shook his head after seeing it, and said that it still doesn't work.
The clue was broken at this point, but we saw a few footprints in the empty mud in front of us. Because the mud is not affected by external forces for a long time, it forms a hard shell, but this hard shell is extremely fragile, and there is a gap of one or two inches below the hard shell.
The footprints belonged to two people, and they stretched all the way to the iron gate, and this series of footprints only went and did not return, and it is clear that the person who left these footprints entered the school, and never came out after that, or went out from other directions of the school.
Seeing these footprints, Yang Mengqing became emotional, and ran straight towards the school regardless of our dissuasion.
We couldn't stop her, and the Taoist priest's face immediately sank. I knew that now was not the time to be angry, so I hurriedly patted the Taoist priest and said that the most important thing now was not to let her in, and if I wanted to get angry, I had to wait until I stopped her.
Yang Mengqing really wanted to open the door, I stopped her and told her not to be impulsive, saying that you also heard the ghost laughter just now, it is too dangerous here, if you open the door and provoke the things inside, we will all suffer, even if your parents are inside, you can't save it!
As soon as I said this, she calmed down and watched in silence at the scene inside the iron gate.
At this time, the Taoist priests also rushed over, and they all persuaded her, saying how dangerous it is, entering it is a dead end, and the footprints are not necessarily your parents', so let's take a look before the situation is uncertain.
After persuading for a while, Yang Mengqing still refused to leave, saying that if she wanted to go, she must go in to have a look, and said that if the footprints were her Abba and Aunt's, and it was as dangerous as we said, then wouldn't her Abba and Auntie also face danger inside, and she would have to go in immediately. We were speechless when she said this, and a few people gathered around the door and didn't know what to do.
Just as we were at a stalemate, Cortana accidentally hit her foot and couldn't stand firmly, but fortunately there was a square stone pillar more than a meter high next to her, and she held on to it. I thought she had already stood firm, but she suddenly screamed, and the hand holding the stone pillar slipped as if she had lost her strength, and then the whole person fell down with it.
In an instant our faces turned white, and when my heart was finished, the ghost laughter was coming again.
Sure enough, as soon as my thoughts came to my mind, the piercing super high decibel laughter rang out again, and it was several times more powerful than just now, I covered my head, feeling that my mind was about to be torn, and at the same time I felt that there was liquid flowing down the corners of my eyes. I could see the color of the liquid, not tears, and wiped it with my hand and saw that it was blood.
At this moment, the scene in front of me became blurred, a sign that I wanted to faint, and I bit the tip of my tongue sharply, and my consciousness cleared up a little, but the pain still came in waves. Gradually, I saw something, it was a blurry mass of black faces, they were floating, their mouths wide open and howling, and I could faintly see the weird smiles on their faces.
I don't know why I saw this all of a sudden, but I know it's what the ghostly laughter is coming from, but there's nothing I can do, I just watch like this, and my consciousness starts to blur.
Those strange faces frantically slammed into the iron door, but the broken iron door that seemed to be blowing down stood as calm as Mount Tai, unable to shake it at all. Every time those faces collided, the iron door emitted a faint light intertwined with gold and black, and then the human face was bounced back, and then continued to repeat the action of hitting the door, tirelessly, as if he would not give up if he did not rush out of the iron door.
I saw that my scalp was numb, but my eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and at the moment when I felt that I had closed my eyes, the ghost laughter stopped, and my closed eyes immediately opened, and then I looked at the iron door, but I found that everything was as usual, what black human faces, what iron doors glowing with golden black light, all disappeared.
At this time, the Taoist priests also came to their senses, and they were still full of tears and snot as before, and when they saw that my eyes were bleeding, they were all taken aback, and hurriedly came to help me.
I waved my hand to show that I was out of the way, and Cortana was about to cry with guilt on her face, and she was busy wiping the blood from the corners of her eyes while saying sorry. I smiled and said that it was okay, and said that I had cheated you just now, and now it is flat. Then I asked her what was going on, and I had seen her hold on to the stone pillar, but why did she fall?
Cortana herself was puzzled, saying that she had been burned when she touched the stone pillar, and then she screamed. As she spoke, she held out her hand to show us, and we gasped at the same time. I saw that her white palm had been burned, and what was even more strange was that the outline of the burn happened to form a skull and gossip marks.
The Taoist priest grabbed her hand, looked at it carefully, and suddenly hummed, and then hurriedly looked at the stone pillar.
Noticing that he looked strange and a little surprised, I leaned over as well.
The pillars are made of marble, about the thickness of a thigh, and their surfaces have become rough and rough after a long period of wind and rain. When I noticed the stone pillar before, I thought it was a door ornament, but now when I looked closely, I found that the stone pillar was engraved with many tadpole-like runes, and there was a skull mark in the middle of the top, and there was a gossip mark engraved on the side of the skull.
I couldn't understand this, but when I saw the changing face of the Taoist priest, I knew that this guy must have understood something, so I asked him: "Eh, what is this, why does it look so evil, and it is a skeleton and gossip?" ”
The Taoist priest ignored me, and after looking at it for a while, he raised his hand to touch the two patterns, and as soon as he touched it, he immediately retracted it like an electric shock, and when he spread out his hand to see, there were indeed traces of burns, but he was prepared and did not let the two patterns be branded.
"Sure enough!" As if an idea had been verified, the Taoist priest exclaimed, "That's amazing! Dao Ye has always wondered why the things in the school are so powerful, why they just keep scaring us with ghost smiles, it turns out that it is because of this! ”
I heard it in a fog and kicked him and made him speak.
The Taoist priest pointed to the stone pillar and explained: "The rune engraved on this pillar is your Miao Jiang's witch spell, as for what kind of witch spell, the Taoist master does not know this way, so I don't know, but the skull is the symbol of the black witch, I think this should be a black witch spell with the effect of suppressing evil spirits." As for the gossip next to the skull, it is my Central Plains Taoist Five Elements Sealing Evil Hexagram! Both of these are powerful means of sealing evil spirits, and there should be more than this stone pillar nearby, with these two suppressing here, no matter how evil and evil the things in the school are, there is no way to break out of the school. ”
While saying this, the Taoist priest was obviously much more relaxed, and it was obvious that his previous fear of school was gone.
Hearing him say this, I also thought of the scene I had just seen in the hazy consciousness, and it seemed that the golden and black light on the iron gate that prevented the collision of people's faces should be the seal of witchcraft and Taoism he said.
"However, why is there a Central Plains Taoist evil suppression method here? Could it be that other Taoist priests have come here and teamed up with people who know black magic to set seals? ”
I expressed the doubts in my heart, and when the Taoist priest heard it, he also showed a puzzled look.
"Oh, this Daoist Master can't figure it out, in fact, there is no need to make two seals at all, because the person who can lay this kind of seal has reached an unimaginably high level, and one is enough to suppress the evil things in the school. Moreover, there is a conflict between the black witch and the orthodox Dao technique, and the same two evil suppression seals together will contain each other, which is not reasonable, unless it is intentional. ”
The Taoist priest's words reminded me, and I pointed to the gossip and said to him: "Don't say it, maybe it's really possible, you see that the gossip is completely engraved in the corner, and it is obvious that the skull was added after it was carved." ”
"Huh? Really. But why would they do it? Hungry? You must know that carving a seal of this level not only requires a lot of mental energy from the caster, but also requires a lot of other means, and there must be a lot of arrangements around here. ”
As soon as the Taoist priest's words fell, Lin Qiao'er on the other side suddenly called me in a low voice: "Xiaoyi, come and see, there is an engraving here, it is a text message!" ”
