Chapter 146: Blue Fire
I stayed at the old man's house that night, but I never asked what was going on. The next morning, I had to go on the road with a stomach full of doubts.
Back home, Jiang Yifeng was sitting on the threshold of the door with a melancholy face. When he saw me come back, he didn't speak, but let out a long sigh.
"What's wrong?" I stepped forward and asked.
Jiang Yifeng said to me, "What else can happen? Last night, the conjuring failed again. ”
I heard him say that he was lonely, and when I looked closely, he seemed to have no energy at all.
was about to say something comforting, but he suddenly continued: "Jiujiao, why don't you want to help him?" The Gu family is pitiful enough, don't you see, last night, Aunt Gu and sister-in-law cried and grabbed the ground. If you don't understand this matter again, you probably don't know how many lives you will have to lose. ”
"I'll go in the evening." When I came back from the old man who carved the monument, I already wanted to open it, and there were many things that I couldn't escape if I wanted to. For example, what is in front of you, let it be, often can only have the worst results. And if you work hard, you may end up with the worst, but in the end there is a possibility of good.
Sure enough, when Jiang Yifeng heard that I was going at night, his face suddenly became excited.
"I knew you'd say yes!" When he had finished speaking, he got up and went into the house, apparently waiting for me here in order to say this to him.
Why does the conjuring have to be done at night? One theory is that the yin qi is heavier at night, which is conducive to the activities of ghosts and spirits. Another way of saying it is a proverb, 'See ghosts during the day, kick your legs at night', and people who can see ghosts in the daytime are already very weak in their yang energy, and they may disperse anytime and anywhere, and they will also become ghosts.
In short, daytime spiritualism is not a good time, and spiritualism must be done until night.
As the night deepened, Jiang Yifeng and I came to Gu's house together.
Completely different from the previous times I came, this time the Gu family was quiet as if there was no one left. A bad premonition came to me, and I quickly knocked on the door.
Fortunately, after a few knocks, Big Brother Gu ran over to open the door.
Seeing that it was me outside the door, his eyes obviously showed a little joy, and he said to me happily: "Little coffin, I know that you won't ignore our family!" You're going to get it! Come in, come in! ”
When I walked into the house, I found that Aunt Gu and my sister-in-law were also there, and the two of them were sitting next to each other, right next to the table at the entrance. It's just that both of them have a little dull eyes, and they don't speak when they see me.
Brother Gu smiled apologetically at me, walked over and whispered a few words to the two of them. After a while, they both got up at the same time and walked towards the house. The door to the back room was closed, and it wasn't long before the lights went out, and I guess I fell asleep.
I looked at Brother Gu, and Brother Gu explained to me, "Little coffin, don't be weird. If something so big happens at home, it is inevitable that a woman's family will always be less able to bear it. Besides, the matter was caused by our negligence, not to mention them, even me, it is difficult to forgive myself now. ”
After saying this, he had already invited me and Jiang Yifeng to sit down, while he walked to the closet and took out the things he had prepared from inside. Pointing to those things, he said to me: "Little coffin master, look at these, these are all prepared by Master Jiang." You see if that's right, and if there's anything missing, I'll help you get it. ”
I carefully read what Jiang Yifeng asked Brother Gu to prepare, and I understood what he meant.
This is the method I used last time I summoned the ghost of the ghost, at that time, not to mention the eight characters of the birthday, I didn't even know the name of the person, and I could summon the soul twice. And this time, he obviously still wanted to use that method to summon spirits.
I've checked everything I've prepared, and everything is fine, including incense candles, guide rice, rebirth paper, coins, incense burners, and so on.
After all, Jiang Yifeng has done it with me twice, and he remembers the selection of materials very clearly. And Brother Gu is eager to save his son, of course, he will not do anything to cut corners, it can be seen that every grain of guide rice is picked out by him one by one, complete, slender and long.
But this time things are very strange, if you can find someone with these alone, then Jiang Yifeng will not fail easily. Then I have to have more than one thing, I asked Brother Gu to take a sewing needle, click through his fingertips, and take a few drops of blood.
The so-called heart blood, in our industry, does not mean directly piercing the heart to take blood. After all, we are here to help, not to harm. I'm not a doctor, and I don't know where to get blood and I can't die.
Since ancient times, it has been said that 'ten fingers are connected to the heart'. The fingertips are also connected to the heart, and stabbing the fingertips to take blood means that the blood from the heart has been taken.
The child and Brother Gu are biological father and son, and every grain of guiding rice is stained with Brother Gu's heart's work, and the father and son are connected, so that the chance of getting it back will be greater. But once he fails, Big Brother Gu will easily be used for spellcasting because he is taken blood, causing spells to backlash against him.
Regarding this point, I naturally made it clear to Brother Gu, but Brother Gu said to me clearly: "Little coffin master, in my life, I have acted rightly, sat up straight, and did not ask anyone to do things, nor did I feel that I owed anyone." But there is one person to whom I really owe it, and that is my son! I had a shallow relationship with his father and son, and I became a father and son for a month, and I didn't have time to hug him more, so he ...... I think now as long as I can get my son's body and soul back, so that he can be reincarnated properly and into a good family, I can do whatever I want. Little coffin, you can do it with confidence. I can bear all the consequences. ”
Seeing that he was so resolute, I stopped persuading him and beckoned Jiang Yifeng to help me.
The two of us did it again according to the established procedure, and we were both much more proficient than the previous two times.
Holding the guide rice in my hand, I recited the incantation and sprinkled the rice in the direction. But I can't help but pray in my heart that I must succeed.
I don't know if it was my heart's blood that worked, or if my sincerity moved the heavens, or if there was some other reason, but at the end of the ceremony, I only heard the sound of 'poof', and the candle that was lit did not go out but burned more vigorously, and a small figure faintly appeared on the scarecrow I tied up.
Brother Gu looked at the shadow, his fingers trembling and pointed over, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
But then, I realized that something was wrong.
The figure was indeed the shadow of a child, but the child did not seem to be attached to it as if it were unfettered, but as if the soul was bound by something, so that he could not move at all.
And at this moment, Jiang Yifeng and Big Brother Gu also discovered the abnormality at the same time.
"Son! Son! Where are you? Tell Daddy, where are you? Big Brother Gu shouted hysterically, "Who hurt you, you tell me, you tell me!" ”
The figure didn't speak, didn't move, or maybe couldn't open or move at all.
In the cold wind, I could hear the mournful voice of a baby crying.
Although Big Brother Gu was very anxious, he still remembered my instructions in the end, and did not pounce on it, and directly scattered the child's soul.
But it was all useless, we couldn't communicate with the children, and we couldn't see more from the shallow figure.
Suddenly, a blue fire lit up around the scarecrow I had erected, and the scarecrow burst into flames.
Big Brother Gu couldn't control it anymore, and he was about to pounce on him when he took a step.
Jiang Yifeng and I hurriedly stopped him and hugged him one by one.
The scarecrow was ignited by the blue flames, and in the blink of an eye, half of it had been burned. The figure let out a few extremely suppressed screams, and then in a flash, the shadow disappeared.
