Chapter 7 The Ghost Looks Like a Ghost

Ding Xiaolan couldn't help but be surprised when she saw Liu Yifan's restrained appearance, and was about to ask what happened, when she saw Qi Lu with his arms folded around his chest, and said to himself: "I can convince Liu Yifan, who is amazing in physiognomy, and Lao Wu is really good." ”

"Are you saying that Lao Wu is coaxing Master Liu?" Ding Xiaolan hurriedly asked.

"Not really." Qi Lu said: "Lao Wu pointed out to him the terrible things on Xiaojuan's corpse. ”

"What's scary, what's that?"

"If you don't mind, you can take another look at Xiaojuan's body in the ice coffin to see if there are purple stains on her temples on either side."

Ding Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, but still took the opportunity of straightening the wreath next to the coffin to steal a few glances at Xiaojuan's body as Qi Lu said.

When she walked back with a panicked look, Qi Lu snickered and said, "What's the matter, I'm not wrong, right?" ”

"It's really not easy to spot if you don't look closely, but it's just an ordinary corpse spot." Ding Xiaolan forced her mouth to be stiff.

"Ha, you're a little bit right this time, it's a ghost." Qi Lu's face became grim, and he realized that it was disrespectful to the dead to laugh near the mourning hall.

"Ghost, are you talking nonsense?" Ding Xiaolan looked suspicious, she had never heard anyone say such a strange term.

"Ghost spots are not a good thing, they are a sign of two bad signs."

"Which two?" Ding Xiaolan became curious.

"A sign that the dead have turned into a terrible ghost, and will come out tonight to do harm; Another possibility is that corpses will also have ghost spots before turning into zombies. ”

"Do you mean that Xiaojuan's ghost is going to appear tonight?"

"If that's the case, it's not a big deal, Master Liu can solve it alone." Qi Lu was worried, "What I'm worried about is that the two situations will happen at the same time. ”

"Hmph, you can really blow!" Ding Xiaolan still didn't believe it, she imagined in her mind that Xiaojuan's ghost was floating in the air, and the corpse turned into a zombie, jumping around on the ground with her hands outstretched, which was simply funny and ridiculous.

Qi Lu shrugged his shoulders noncommittally and said thoughtfully: "The current situation reminds me of an evil spirit in Japanese legends. ”

"How can it be related to Japan, Xiaojuan is an authentic Chinese."

"In Japan, there is a kind of female ghost who goes to a private house in the middle of the night to snatch a child, and she makes a terrifying laugh when she eats people."

"Can you please stop talking about these disgusting things!" Ding Xiaolan got goosebumps when she heard this.

Qi Lu continued casually: "It is said that this kind of female ghost is called Pranya ......"

"Hehe, I'm making it up again, Prajna is the meaning of wisdom in Buddhism, and you actually put it on a female ghost." Ding Xiaolan sneered.

"I'm not lying to you, you can go through the information and check it when you have time. Prajna is a vicious spirit formed by a jealous and resentful spirit, and because it was abandoned by his lover during his lifetime, it has always hated. It will ruthlessly drag her lover's life into darkness, and in the days to come, she will only do one thing repeatedly, and that is to wait for the opportunity to devour the couple in love into her body. ”

"Huh?" Ding Xiaolan was shocked, and she muttered, "I don't want Xiaojuan to become such a ghost. ”

"I don't want that to happen either." Qi Lu glanced at Lao Wu's side, and then said, "Presumably Lao Wu has already discussed countermeasures with Master Liu, let's go over and ask." ”

Liu Yifan and Lao Wu stopped chatting at this time, and the two just looked at the spirit shed, with a worried look on their faces.

Qi Lu stepped forward and saluted Liu Yifan and said, "Thank you for believing in my master's words, and I hope that the master can make a decision as soon as possible." ”

"Mr. Wu is your master?" Liu Yifan was stunned for a moment, but then relieved. "Brother is really clumsy, I didn't expect Mr. Qi to be surrounded by capable people."

Qi Lu turned around and asked Lao Wu: "Is there a way to dispel this kind of ferocity?" ”

"It's not difficult to crack, but it doesn't hurt people's lives, and it can allow the deceased to return to the underworld with peace of mind, I'm afraid I can't take care of it."

"You have to do your best no matter what, how can we sit idly by."

Lao Wu frowned and said, "There is a difficulty right now, but it has nothing to do with ghosts. ”

Liu Yifan hurriedly asked: "If Mr. Wu has any difficulties, just say it, I will try to do it." ”

"Lao Liu, you also saw it just now, the ghost will appear tonight, but there are many relatives who are keeping vigil in the spirit shed, and I am afraid that it will affect the innocent."

"Yes, once a ghost provokes confusion and terror in people's hearts, it will kill people." Qi Lu Yinghe said: "Although we will not be confused by it, but the master's relatives are ordinary people, but I am afraid it will be difficult to resist." ”

Liu Yifan groaned and said: "If it doesn't work, I will let my relatives and friends go back to rest, and I will keep a vigil here tonight, and at the same time trouble the three of you to accompany me to resolve my niece's bad luck." ”

Qi Lu replied: "Master rest assured, we have no reason to stand idly by. ”

But Lao Wu didn't have a little joy, he said a little worriedly: "It's a trivial matter for us to help, but Lao Liu have you thought about it, ghosts and even yin things may appear after the sun sets." If it's the middle of the night, it's not difficult for you to persuade everyone to go back and rest, but what if Xiaojuan comes out to make trouble shortly after dinner at eight or nine o'clock? I guess at that time, your relatives weren't gone yet, right? ”

"This ......"

Lao Wu's words are reasonable, which stumped Liu Yifan.

"I have a way to avoid this." Qi Lu said confidently beside him.

"What's the solution?"

Qi Lu said: "Lao Wu and I can draw talismans on the four corners of the ice coffin to suppress her for a while, to ensure that Xiaojuan's ghost can only come out after midnight." ”

"Well, that's a good idea." However, Liu Yifan immediately became worried again, "The ice coffin is rented, how can we draw talismans on it without authorization, not to mention that now we have to draw talismans in front of everyone, I am afraid that some people are taboo and will think that we are disrespectful to the dead." ”

"Master don't worry, I'm using alum water to draw talismans."

"Alum, isn't it cinnabar or something?" Liu Yifan was stunned.

Qi Lu and Lao Wu looked at each other and smiled, and then Lao Wu pulled Liu Yifan aside and explained to him in detail the method of drawing talismans with alum water.

"Alas, no wonder you will be invincible when you walk yin and yang, brother really admires." Liu Yifan was convinced this time.

Qi Lu then asked Ding Xiaolan to buy some alum, while Liu Yifan went back to the spirit shed to say hello to his brother and sister-in-law and then went to prepare other materials for drawing talismans.

When Liu Yifan prepared the red pen and other utensils, Ding Xiaolan also bought the alum back. Liu Yifan took them to the spirit shed, and found a person who had left the idle people from the beginning, leaving only Xiaojuan's parents and a few of them in the spirit shed.

Lao Wu glanced at Liu Yifan, and the two of them walked around the coffin and recited "Taishang Daojun Says the Wonderful Sutra of Solving Grievances and Pulling Out Sins". Qi Lu adjusted the alum water, secretly took a breath of true qi, and lifted the red pen to meticulously write the evil god mantra on the four corners of the ice coffin.

After the urn was written, Qi Lu saw that the rune water had not yet dried out, and found that some relatives outside the shed were peeking in. It wasn't until the rune water was completely dried and there were no traces on the coffin that Qi Lu signaled Lao Wu and Liu Yifan to stop doing it.

Liu Yifan tidied up his clothes and went out of the shed to greet all relatives and friends to come in and sit down, and after the settlement was completed, he came out with Qi Lu and others to discuss the ghost hunting operation at night.

Before he could open his mouth to ask, Liu Yifan was pulled by his sleeve. He hurriedly looked back and found that it was Xiaojuan's parents standing behind him.

Liu Yifan couldn't help but ask: "Big brother, sister-in-law, why don't you rest in the shed?" Just let me do some chores. ”

"Brother......" Xiaojuan's father glanced at Qi Lu and the others, and asked a little hesitantly, "What kind of Dharma did you just do?" ”

"Big brother, these are the friends I invited to do the Tao." Liu Yifan knew that his brother was suspicious of what they had just done, so he quickly made up a lie to dispel the couple's suspicions. "What we read just now is the secret Sutra of the Past Life in Maoshan, which can bless Xiaojuan to join a rich family in the next life."

Xiaojuan's parents were already convinced of their brother's spells, and when they heard Liu Yifan say this, and saw that Qi Lu and the others did not ask for money like those charlatans, but did their best to help, they couldn't help but feel good, and they were also much more polite to Qi Lu and others, and the couple thanked them. Qi Lu hurriedly returned the salute and exchanged a few polite words with them, so as not to show any flaws.

Liu Yifan was afraid that if he said too much, he would lose it, so he couldn't stand the fright after letting his brother know the news that his daughter had turned into a ghost, so he persuaded them to go back to the mourning shed to rest on the grounds of discussing the law with Qi Lu and others.

After Xiaojuan's parents left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Lao Wu's brows furrowed again, and he said that it was not good.

Ding Xiaolan couldn't help but be a little irritated when she saw his nervous appearance, so she asked angrily: "Old Wu, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I've missed one thing."

As soon as Qi Lu heard it, he knew that he had doubts, and hurriedly asked him if there was anything he hadn't thought of just now. Liu Yifan was not in a hurry at this time, and said with a confident expression on his face: "Mr. Wu, I probably know what you are thinking in your heart, can you let me talk first?" ”

"Of course you can, Lao Liu, but it's okay to talk about it."

"You're worried that my niece's ghost won't show up in the shed, but instead go to the bastard, right?"

"Yes, Lao Liu, you're right!" Lao Wu nodded frequently.

Ding Xiaolan was confused and said, "Who is the bastard boy Xiaojuan is looking for?" ”

"Who else could there be, of course Xu Jingqiao." Qi Lu whispered beside her.

"Oh, that's a possibility!" Ding Xiaolan suddenly became anxious, "If she goes to find Xu Jingqiao, then aren't we all working in vain just now?" ”

"Looks like we're going to split up." Liu Yifan thought for a moment and said his idea.

"Well, I agree with Master Liu's idea." Qi Lu replied.

"I agree." Lao Wu had no objection.

The three of them began to discuss, and finally decided to let Lao Wu stay in the funeral shed to take care of Xiaojuan's body for Liu Yifan, while Liu Yifan, Qi Lu and Ding Xiaolan, the three of them set off to find Xu Jingqiao, and they must find him before the sun sets. Otherwise, Xiao Juan's ghost would be the first to appear in the spirit shed, and it would be difficult for Lao Wu to deal with it.

The matter was decided, the four of them acted separately, Liu Yifan drove a domestic car that he had just bought and took Qi Lu and Ding Xiaolan to find Liu Jingqiao.
