Chapter 153: Three Fires
Cui Rongguang asked me this, and before I could answer, Jiang Yifeng had already jumped up and shouted to Cui Rongguang: "Nothing serious? I'm telling you, he's been taken by a ghost! Dare to turn back! It's almost like letting people suck up all the yang energy, you know? If you have the guts, try and see who will save you! ”
Although Jiang Yifeng said it was not polite, after the example of a scholar, no one dared not take my words to heart.
Two fighters were sent out, taking turns carrying the scholar on their backs.
Fortunately, on the way back, there were no more problems. It's just that Cui Rongguang has been asking this and that by my side, asking non-stop, as if he was curious about everything, which made my already uncalm heart a little irritable.
When they returned to the village, they were still accommodated by the village chief as usual, while Jiang Yifeng and I were left at the village chief's house, because the scholar was still unconscious by this time, and Cui Rongguang asked me to save him.
It was only at this time that I knew that this scholar was very famous in the archaeological community, especially for his understanding of the history of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the identification of cultural relics of the Western Zhou Dynasty. The literati are arrogant, and some are arrogant, which is understandable. Cui Rongguang also specially told me that he is an expert with the team, and he is also one of the best in the country. Usually I have a weird temper, but I'm not a bad person, so I don't mind.
Since Cui Rongguang said so, I am not such a small-bellied person. Besides, human life is at stake, and he can't be anything special because he has offended me. Since he is not a bad person, if I can save him, I still have to save him.
It's just that looking at his situation is really not optimistic.
His body was shrouded in yin qi at this time, and Yin Tang turned black, obviously injured by yin poison. The man was still unconscious and had developed a high fever.
This is because the Yin Qi is fighting against the Yang Qi in the body, causing the Yang Qi to gush outward and the Yin Qi to seep inward. The outflow of yang energy is manifested by an increase in body temperature, and the influx of yin energy is manifested by the coldness of the limbs.
Cui Rongguang has been urging me to find a way.
But this situation of the scholar is not a loss of soul, but the three lamps on the human body have all been blown out. At this time, the yang energy is almost about to disperse, and if he delays for a while, I am afraid that even the Great Luo Immortal will not be able to save him.
"If the fire is extinguished, will you light it?" Jiang Yifeng asked me.
I could only shake my head, "I've only heard of the solution, but I don't know if it will work." It is said that he himself must believe in these things in order to be useful. ”
"him!" Jiang Yifeng shouted, "If you have any way, just try it, as long as you can light the fire, won't people be saved?" You can't just watch him die! ”
I sighed, of course I knew in my heart that what Jiang Yifeng said was right. I looked at Cui Rongguang and asked, "Do you know his birthday?" ”
Cui Rongguang replied: "I really know this!" I have the specific information of everyone in this team! ”
"That's a little bit easier." I nodded, and asked the village chief to help me get an empty bowl and fill it with a bowl of fresh chicken blood by the way.
When the village chief brought the chicken blood, I poured cinnabar into the chicken blood, mixed it evenly, and then dipped the mixed liquid with a brush, and wrote the scholar's name and birth date on a piece of yellow paper according to Cui Rongguang's dictation.
Then, ask the village chief to bring an oil lamp and place it above the scholar's head. Roll up the yellow paper on which you have written and light it on an oil lamp.
Then he placed the burning yellow paper on top of the bowl of chicken blood, and watched it melt into ashes little by little and fall into the bowl.
After a while, the yellow paper burned out, and I mixed the chicken blood, cinnabar, and burned ashes in the bowl again, broke the schoolman's mouth, poured the bowl of liquid into his mouth, and watched him swallow it little by little.
"Wait." I said.
At this time, he can only quietly wait for the miracle to appear, as long as the oil lamp on the bedside is not extinguished, after tonight, when the rooster will dawn tomorrow and the sky will turn bright, his three fires will naturally slowly recover.
Cui Rongguang has been standing by and watching my movements, and he can see that he has a lot of doubts, but it is only now that he can't help but ask, "Little comrade, what did you say about the three fires before, is it really not bluffing us?" Are there really ghosts in this world? What you say is true? ”
"In that case, what did I lie to you about?" I said to Cui Rongguang, "Captain Cui, I was here to save you, and I was also here to save myself and my brother. Otherwise, I have nothing to do to let you bite your tongues? Isn't it more fearful to not let you speak? Besides, if I deceive you, how can you explain the matter of Teacher Zeng (scholar)? Everyone saw the situation at that time, you don't think I did it, right? ”
"Of course not, of course not!" Cui Rongguang smiled at me, and then asked about the three fires.
It was a long wait, and we couldn't rest because we had to watch the oil lamps and adapt to the situation at any time, so I told him what I knew about the three fires, and I thought it was just a reason to refresh myself.
I explained to Cui Rongguang: "Everyone has three fires on their bodies, one on their heads and one on each shoulder. The one on the top of the head represents the protection of the gods. That is what we often say, there are gods on the three fingers of the head. I told you to take off your hats so that you wouldn't cover the fire. As for the two fires on your shoulders, they are called nameless fires, which illuminate half of your body, and when combined with the fire above your head, you can illuminate your whole body. These three fires represent the yang energy on a person's body, and when the yang energy is heavy, the fire is vigorous, and no charm can get close. And once you reach a place where the yin qi is heavy, collide with the yin object, or because of some reason of your own, the three fires are weakened or even extinguished, you will definitely give the ghost a chance to commit murder. Just like this time, Mr. Zeng, I told him not to look back, not to look back, but he didn't listen. ”
Cui Rongguang suddenly realized: "So, that's what you said, ghost shoulders?" ”
I nodded, "It can be said that people are easy to provoke ghosts when the three fires are relatively weak, and they are easy to be tempted by ghosts in places where the yin qi is heavy. The ghost will try to get you back, and once you do, it will take the opportunity to blow out one of your fires. When one of the three fires is extinguished, the other two will be weakened, and he has an opportunity. This time, Yifeng was alert, and found that a ghost was holding Teacher Zeng's shoulder, so he shot in time, which saved Teacher Zeng's life. Otherwise, if Mr. Zeng is allowed to carry that ghost back, he doesn't know what will happen! He may not be alone. ”
Cui Rongguang nodded, and at this time, the door of the village chief's house was suddenly slammed open with a strong force.
Everyone in the room was startled and stood up one after another.
I didn't have time to see what was going on, so I turned my head and glanced at the oil lamp. The flame of the oil lamp flickered for a moment, and I hurriedly protected it with my hand to prevent it from being extinguished by the cold wind that suddenly blew in.
Fortunately, the flame only flickered for a moment before it lit up again.
I breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the door, only to find that it was the little soldier who had been arguing with the scholar who had broken in.
Cui Rongguang also remembered the matter of the oil lamp at this time, and hurriedly said to the little soldier that he would not be so reckless in the future. The little soldier apologized again and again, then handed the map in his hand to Cui Rongguang and said, "Captain Cui, this is what our squad leader asked me to hand over to you." The squad leader said that when we came back today, he deliberately remembered the route, and when he came back, he compared it on the map and found that the place where we stayed at that time was probably the same place as the last time we found the robbery hole. ”
