Chapter 31: The Lustful Ghost
Under the shadow of the moon, the two beasts fought fiercely, I was so frightened that I hurriedly ran back, I don't know what it was, but now it is important to save my life, although I feel a little sorry for the corpse cat, but after all, it is a matter between animals.
But I ran two steps, and I felt that something was wrong, the beast was holding a person in his arms, I quickly turned around, and I saw that the corpse cat was picked up, and the thing carried the corpse cat to the ground, and I thought to myself, this time the corpse cat will have to see Hades even if it has nine lives.
Sure enough, the corpse cat was thrown to the ground, making a meowing sound, extremely miserable, but I don't think the monster is uncomfortable, the body is full of wounds, bloody, especially his eyeballs, they were actually caught and pulled down, this corpse cat is really cruel.
I thought the corpse cat was dead, but who knew that it actually got up, coughed and ran towards me, it seemed that the injury was not light, I thought to myself, sure enough, it is a nine-life thing, the life is so big, the monster punched me, and my ribs were about to break, and I know its strength.
It would make my heart beat so hard that the clouds obscured the moon again, and I couldn't see anything but the green light of the eyes of the two beasts, and I was so distraught by the sound of the meow that I didn't know whether to run or what.
This will I hear the footsteps, I feel a little scared, I don't know if the monster is coming towards me, or someone else, at this time I am most panicked, I took out the Lu Ban ruler, and suddenly felt that someone slapped me behind me, I didn't say a word, turned around and hit, and then I heard a curse.
"Shriveled calf, you dare to hit me!"
As soon as I heard Yan Liu's voice, I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and hurriedly shouted: "There is a monster ahead, he has arrested someone, hurry up and save people."
After I finished speaking, I saw a candle flame, I looked at that thing as if I was very afraid of the candle flame, and hurriedly turned around and ran, that thing actually had long hair on its back, a little terrifying, Yan Liu was obviously startled, that thing was extremely fast, over the wall and over the courtyard, and it was gone in the blink of an eye.
I took a step slower with Yan Liu, and just let it run.
Yan Wenli's house, a few of us sat all night, and waited until the day to wait for Yan Kuan, he is a county official, Mujia Village is his own family, there is a case of household abduction here, of course he has to take care of it, after Yan Kuan came, he was quite polite to me, I saw that he was a county official who was polite to me and naturally respected him for three points.
Yan Kuan, like his father, is full of fat brains, and he can't see bad intentions on the surface, but he has a selfish taste in his heart, and in order to keep his official position that day, he didn't have to burn the Yan family's chicks.
After explaining the specific matter to Yan Kuan, he took someone to the village to inquire, whose girl was lost last night, and he was still very important, after all, human life is at stake.
I looked at the corpse cat lying on the ground, it was very painful, its eyes were white, and it looked like it was about to die, Yan Liu said to me: "Don't worry about dying, this thing has a big life, let me tell you, go find two dead babies, feed it two mouthfuls of meat, it's stronger than anything else, make sure it can run up immediately."
I thought so in my heart, but I didn't want to do it, the dead baby was already pitiful, if it was bad for their flesh, it must be a thing that would damage the yin virtue, if I could, I would rather cut off my own flesh and give it to eat.
But I didn't want to see him work so hard, so I had to throw a few pieces of Yan Wenli's salt fish at home, and the corpse cat ate a few bites, but it wasn't so miserable.
Yan Wenli was curious and asked me, "This cat is so tight, what's so powerful?"
Yan Liu came over to smoke the fun, and said to Yan Wenli jokingly: "This thing, a good thing, I have eaten the meat of generations since I beat my mother's womb, and I have eaten it until nine catties and nine taels before I grow meat.
When Yan Wenli heard this, his face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly stayed away from the corpse cat, I glared at Yan Liu when I heard it, but I was curious, and asked him: "You remind me, what is the origin of that guy at night?" Like a monkey is more like a mouse, like a rat but doing human things, kidnapping a woman's house in the middle of the night, this kind of thing has not been heard of for many years, these years, there are still monsters entering the door and kidnapping people?"
Yan Liu saw me ask him, pinched his one-tailed beard, thought about it carefully, I saw that he was not in a hurry to sell Guanzi, sat down and took a sip of tea, and waited for him to think slowly, Yan Liu saw that I was not in a hurry, he was a little anxious, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly said to me: "It's over, that thing is not easy to deal with, in ancient times there was a great immortal named Liu Ji, he fought with that thing for three days and five nights before he surrendered, we met, I guess we can only escape."
Liu Ji is Liu Bowen, he is a generation of heavenly masters, helped Zhu Yuanzhang become the emperor, and he can't deal with that thing with his Taoism, I think that thing must have a great origin, but I don't ask, Yan Liu likes to sell Guanzi, so let him sell it, Yan Liu saw that I was silent, so he sat down by himself and said to me: "You may have met a lustful ghost."
As soon as I heard the three "lustful ghosts", I thought badly, and the girl estimated that she couldn't come back, Yan Liu saw that my face changed, so he said to me: "We don't see much here, there are many in the Jiangnan area, and we also set up a temple to worship it, this thing is a dragon that does not see the end, and it is difficult to catch it."
I nodded, Yan Liu is right, the lustful ghost is called Wutong, the original name of the ghost is Wutong, it was originally a spirit, originated from the evil ghost Xiao Wei, and the prototype is a mountain spirit and a monster that likes adulterous wives and daughters, so it mainly appeared in the world as a lewd ghost in the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. Later, because it was difficult for people to cure him, they worshiped and sacrificed to him, respected him as a god, and built a merchant temple for him.
There is also a record in the notes of Hu Banxian's grandfather, saying: Wutong likes lewdness the most, so it can be deformed or show its true face with people's admiration, or a beautiful man, or a dragon, or an ape, or a shrimp toad, etc., the body is different, all of them are demonic and strong, masculine and majestic, and they are really the world's first sinister and lewd ghosts.
I don't hear much of this kind of thing, so it's an accurate record of what it looks like, but it's the first time I've heard of this guy daring to enter the village and kidnap women.
When I saw Yan Wan coming back with someone, I asked, "Did you find it?" Did the girl lose it?"
Yan Kuan wiped the sweat on his head, but didn't look at me, but pulled his father aside, I listened with my ears pricked up, and it wasn't very true that Yan Kuan said that it was the daughter of his eighth uncle's family, Yan Li, last night their family went to sleep on the kang, who knew that Yan Li had to go out for a little relief, but she didn't come back as soon as she went out.
When I heard this, I hurriedly went over and said, "Yan Li? Are you in your early twenties and have relatives with Yan An's family?"
Yan Wenli said yes, he still looked at me strangely, looking like you know everything, I didn't explain to him, I saw this girl yesterday, it was the girl who heard the five ghosts crying and was drenched in bird feces when she went out, I told her that there was danger and let her stay at home, but I didn't expect to suffer.
Yan Kuan was still very sad about the fact that someone was taken away, first of all, Yan Li was his relative, and secondly, he didn't want to make people panic because of the legend of some kind of mountain spirit and monster, so he wanted to take someone to find Yan Li immediately.
Yan Liu and I didn't stop me, because I knew that they couldn't find people, which mountain spirits and land monsters were in the mountains, if it weren't for your chance and great skills, you wouldn't have been able to meet them.
I think the source of this matter is still in Yan An's house, and in the end, I still have to find a goddess, but a goddess is chattering, pretending to be crazy and stupid, and refuses to tell the truth, so it is very difficult to save people.
The rumors of shame in the village are boiling, and the door is locked from house to house, and I am afraid that my daughter will be lost, this kind of situation only happened when the country was just founded when there was a lot of trouble, and it is really rare in recent years.
I discussed countermeasures with Yan Liumao at Yan Wenli's house, Yan Liu's main thing was to make a sum of money, but I felt sorry for the girl's family, and she was going to die at the age of twenty, so I didn't feel distressed?
So I discussed with Yan Liu to find Aunt Hua, the goddess, and came to Yan An's house, his old man was cleaning up his daughter's relics, Kuizi was burning the brazier, and put his sister's relics in front of the spiritual throne and burned them, and the goddess who was unconscious before actually woke up, and it was rare to see her appear, I saw him kneeling in front of his daughter's spiritual seat, holding chopsticks in his hand and breaking them one by one, and cursing in his mouth, I knew immediately that she was casting spells.
The goddess scolded very fiercely, the whole family died and the like were cheap, cursing people to never be born, he scolded, folded a chopstick and handed it into the brazier, and scolded it into the brazier.
This glanced at Yan Liu, and they all stood back, so as not to be stained with evil energy, this is a spell in the shaman's door, which is commonly used by shamans, called "curse before the spirit".
This method is extremely vicious, and it is most applicable to the funeral of the unjustly deceased.
If a relative or family member is wronged and wronged to death by others, take a piece of cotton velvet chopsticks from the rice poured on the head before the spirit, and recite curse words in his mouth, such as we curse all the wicked people who harm my relatives, and the whole family will die in vain, and there will be no heirs, and they will be rewarded immediately, etc.
Then he broke the chopsticks with force and threw them into the brazier in front of the spirit to incinerate, and the whole set of curses in front of the spirit was completed.
I waited with Yan Liu for a while, and Yan An came to greet us, pulled us to the door, brought tea and water, and he wiped his tears and said to me, "I heard that Yan Li was lost?" Someone really wants to harm me, Daxian, you have the ability, you can save our family. ”
I came for this matter, I didn't give Yan An a word, but asked the goddess: "The predecessors did evil, and the descendants suffered, even if the white fairy was afraid and didn't want to see this result, so as not to spoil its practice, since you cursed in front of the spirit, you definitely know who wants to harm you, your niece was arrested last night, if you tell me, who did you offend, maybe the girl can still be saved, this time I believe it is not Bai Xian who invited her to tea, because last night I saw clearly, it is clearly a ghost."
When the goddess heard me, her body shook, but she didn't speak, but her body shook even more, and I knew at a glance that she was about to pretend to be a ghost again.
Suddenly, the wounds on the goddess's body were cracked, and blood spurted out, and Yan Liu and I stood up in fright, what kind of god is this goddess pretending to be? What the hell?
