The master looked at the lotus lamp in the cabin and said, "Take care of the lotus, that girl's soul is already attached to the jade bracelet, and if the candle in the middle is not extinguished, her soul will still be there." We have to hurry back to shore, or the candles will be burned and we will be in vain. ”

Brother Zhou paddled hard, but he felt that he was blocked by something below, and he couldn't paddle at all, so the master lit the talisman seal and threw it aside.

At this time, the master's talisman seal was almost gone.

The master said angrily: "These ghosts, even if they die, they can't live in peace, they sacrifice paper and meat, and they want to kill us." ”

But now that we are on the boat, there is nothing around us, and the master can't use it anymore.

I suddenly thought of the bottle of Soul Scattering Pill that Senior Sister Xuanji left me, these ghosts can find us, it is nothing more than our yang energy and light. If we hide it, they don't think it's just a boat.

Seeing that the candle was getting shorter and shorter, I asked the master, "What should we do with this lotus lantern when we get to the shore?" ”

The master said: "When you get to the shore, you need to release the girl's soul, let her go to find her own body, just put the lotus in the middle, and sing the "Sutra of Salvation" around the lotus, if the candle can be suddenly extinguished, it proves that the soul has gone." ”

After listening to this, I said, "Master, I have a way." ”

After that, I took out the bottle of Soul Scattering Pill from Senior Sister Xuanji, divided two pills for Master and Brother Zhou, and ate one myself.

I explained: "This is the Soul Scattering Pill given by Senior Sister Xuanji, maybe people will become confused later, Brother Zhou, you just need to paddle to the shore." ”

The master looked at me suspiciously, and I continued to explain, "The things in this water can't feel our souls, so they don't need to chase them anymore. ”

The master smiled understandingly and asked, "Then what do I need to do?" ”

I looked at the master's hand injury and said with a smile: "Dadao Master Chen only needs to recuperate quietly, and the rest will watch the performance of Dadao Shi in the future." ”

The master smiled and put the elixir in his mouth, and Brother Zhou did the same.

I asked the master to extinguish the lantern on the bow of the boat, and then I burned the talisman seal against the oars, and Brother Zhou rowed hard.

I silently recited the mantra to stay awake.

I saw that the boat began to stop and go, and after a while, the pill should have worked, and the boat no longer felt shaking, and the rowing was smooth.

When the seal was finished, I turned around and sat down in the cabin, watching the master sit at the bow of the boat, looking at me with a smile on his face.

Maybe he was relieved, maybe he was proud, because he knew that the little Taoist priest was beginning to grow up.

Paddleing and rowing, the boat slowed down, and I looked back at Brother Zhou's eyes were scattered, paddling mechanically with the oars.

It should be the effect of the elixir, so I quickly stood up and helped to row together.

When I finally arrived at the shore, I saw that the candle in the lotus flower was very short, so I picked up the lotus lantern, went to the shore, hurriedly took out the burning paper on the shore, surrounded the big lotus, and threw the burning paper into the air while singing the "Sutra of Saving People".

After a few turns, I noticed that there was still a little candle left, and it was suddenly extinguished, and it was supposed that the woman's spirit was gone.

I sat on the ground tired, and saw that the master and Brother Zhou were still on the boat, the master was sitting in the bow of the boat, and Brother Zhou was still paddling mechanically. It's just that the water is already very shallow, and no matter how you row, the boat can't go ashore after all.

I lay on the shore and watched the stars in the sky.

I realized: could this be the hidden land, the one marked by the patriarch?

I used to think that I was on the mountain, but looking at the power of the Japanese ghost, compared to the female ghost in Huaishuwan, it was simply weak.

I'm a little skeptical now: those water ghosts were already so arrogant just now, and under this reservoir, there was also a powerful demon king living there. Only tonight, he was not provoked, or disdained us at all.

After waiting for a long time, the master finally regained his senses and came ashore, and the master saw the burning paper and the extinguished lotus lantern all over the ground, and asked, "The soul is gone?" ”

I got up and sat down, smiling and nodding.

The master smiled and patted me on the shoulder.

Later we returned to Daoist Bay.

The next day, the master wrapped the cracked jade bracelet in a handkerchief and asked me to go to the county seat to return it to its owner. I went to the county seat alone, and when I arrived at the central hospital, at the door of the ward, I heard a noisy voice inside.

I knocked on the door, and someone opened it, and I saw that it was full of people, and the woman on the hospital bed was awake and was leaning against the bedside drinking porridge. The middle-aged woman sat on the edge of the bed, saw that it was me, and hurriedly stood up and ushered me into the room.

The middle-aged woman complimented the person next to her while moving a chair for me to sit on the edge of the bed, and the middle-aged man smiled and handed me an orange and thanked me.

I was a little flattered and said, "Actually, you don't have to thank me too much, you should thank herself, if she hadn't called us for help, we wouldn't have known." ”

When the woman drinking porridge heard this, she was surprised and said, "I haven't called anyone." ”

I'm wondering, doesn't she remember?

The woman continued: "I just had a dream, and I dreamed that there was a village, and there were many people in the village, and they were very enthusiastic, and they were reluctant to leave when they saw me and my sister always giving us all kinds of delicious food, but my sister kept urging me to go quickly, saying that I was different from them. Last night, I heard someone calling me, and my sister took me to see the lotus lantern, and kept urging me to leave with the lotus quickly, I wanted my sister to go with me, and my sister said that she was no longer a person in the yang world, and she couldn't leave there. ”

After listening to it, I understood that maybe it was her sister who made the phone call, because I said that it was a Taoist priest and killed her because it was a ghost, so she lied that she was her sister and wanted us to rescue her sister who had not died.

The woman hurriedly asked me about the phone, I told the truth, the woman cried, said: "Actually, by the reservoir, our relationship has eased a lot, because I just got a driver's license, I want to try my hand, my sister also agreed to let me drive, but when chatting in the middle, the man's name was mentioned again, and persuaded me to leave, I was angry, slapped my sister, didn't want the steering wheel to lose control, hit the guardrail, and turned into the reservoir." The middle-aged woman comforted her and gently patted her on the back.

The people around were also consoled, saying that the deceased was gone.

The middle-aged man took me out of the ward, took out his wallet from his pocket, and gave me a wad of money, which was a thank you, but I hurriedly refused, saying that the master had told me that I was not allowed to take the money.

After a few excuses, the middle-aged man saw that I insisted on not accepting it, so he put the money in his wallet again, and then slowly lit a cigarette and said to me against the guardrail: "Later, the police went to the scene, and the investigation found that when it hit, a guardrail was inserted into the passenger door of the eldest daughter's side, piercing the eldest daughter's stomach, and the younger daughter should have been hit and a little unconscious. It was the eldest daughter who endured the pain, unbuckled the seat belt of the younger daughter, pushed the car door, and sent her out of the car, so that the person who went into the water to save the younger daughter was rescued. Don't continue to tell my little daughter about these things, I'm afraid it will make her feel guilty for the rest of her life. ”

Then the man wanted to take me to dinner, but I refused, saying I wanted to see the grave of the deceased sister.

The man took me to a cemetery, and I saw that the tombstone read: Xu Yaru, three words, is the name of this sister. I kowtowed to the tombstone a few times and was about to leave.

But by chance, I saw that in the corner not far away, there was also a monument erected, which read: Chen Ting.

This is the sister of Chen Jiawan who sent me to listen to the voice, and now she sleeps here alone, after her death, I guess that the reason why the Chen family buried her in other places instead of bringing her back for burial was mostly because she was unmarried and pregnant.

Now the tombstone is full of dust, and it is estimated that no one has worshiped during the Qingming Festival. The middle-aged man asked me if I knew this person, and I said it was a relative of mine. It was not a time to worship in the city, so I was not allowed to burn paper, so I went to buy a few bouquets of flowers and put them in front of the tombstone, which was considered a thought.

In the afternoon, I returned to Daoshi Bay, and it was just dark, so I sat in front of the phone and waited, and I still wanted to receive a call from my sister.

I didn't dare to explain to the middle-aged man why his eldest daughter said that he couldn't leave, but lied that it was just yin and yang, and there was no need to worry.

Back at Daoist Bay, I told the master that the woman had woken up, and then told the master about the woman's dream, but I lied that the woman was greedy for underwater, and my sister called for help, and sent my sister's soul back to the yang world and then went to reincarnate.

I didn't dare to tell the master, in fact, I guessed that there was a hidden place under the reservoir, and I didn't dare to say that the woman's sister couldn't leave it anymore. After all, the master is old and can't withstand too much tossing.

I sat on the phone, the chef brought the food, and we ate in the hall.

The master smiled and asked, "Do you want that sister to thank you, a little Taoist, you threatened her to kill her before?" ”

I shook my head and said, "I just want to tell her that her sister is awake and she can rest easy." ”

The master smiled with satisfaction.

Actually, in my heart, I want to tell her: it is a mysterious land, you are trapped there, you must wait patiently, do not be affected and deteriorate, because in the near future, there will be a Taoist priest, who will go to the bottom of the fluorescent water with powerful Taoist skills to rescue you.
