Chapter 21: Evil spirits fear the wicked
After tidying up, I proposed, "Go back to the room first."
"I want to go home," Bai Xue said pitifully.
"I want to go home too," Huang Yongmei accompanied Bai Xue.
I pondered for a while, "When I return to Nanping, there is no car to go back now, the most important thing is ...... The main thing is that we don't know if we will meet these ...... when we return to the shore."
Everyone was silent, and then footsteps sounded on the barge next to them, and a man walked by, and in the dim light he could only see the man holding a long stick in his hand. We thought it was the crew, but when the man approached, we saw that it was an old man.
An old man holding a long stick.
The old man had a beard and stubble, his hair was deep and long, he had a large wooden box on his back, and his clothes looked a little dirty.
"Xiaoshuai, your carpenter master is here", Zhang San almost fell into the river just now, and now he is still in the mood to joke. But when I looked at the old man, he looked like a carpenter with a big wooden box on his back, and he had a carpenter's saw.
The old man probably took us as a crew member, and came up to us and asked, "May I ask if this is a boat to Wushan?"
No one answered him, no one spoke.
I just wonder how the old man found this place when the ship is only docked here now, and it will only go to the front to pick up the passengers after a while.
I replied to the old man, "By the way, this ship is from Chongqing to Yichang, and it will stop at Wushan."
The old man came directly to the boat and said to me, "I'll buy a ticket, I'll go to Wushan."
"Ask the people on board, we're passengers too," I said to the old man, and there was a strange glint in the old man's eyes, and this look, this look looked so evil.
The old man turned his head and walked away, without saying thank you.
My eyes were a little itchy, and I closed them vigorously, and when I opened them again, I saw that the old man's whole body was surrounded by a black gas, and countless evil ghosts poked out of the black air, and those evil ghosts had hideous faces, distorted, and kept struggling there, and I seemed to hear their calls.
I had seen this scene two months ago, and it was the same as the one I saw when I first touched the soul board, and this old man was like a soul board that could walk.
Just as I was astonished, the old man stopped, turned his head to look at me, and then turned and walked further and further.
"Did you see that?" I said, turning to the others, and everyone looked at me blankly. I shook Zhao Dong's shoulder again, "Did you see it, did you see it?"
"See what?" Zhao Dong asked me weakly.
"The old man, the black gas on the old man, and the ghosts who are struggling"
Bai Xue and Huang Yongmei were just a little calmer, but they were frightened by my words and clamored to go home.
I'm also worried that Shirayuki shouldn't go to that place. "Okay, let's send you back first."
Just then a few crew members came over, and one of them, a fat man who was a little older, came up to us and asked, "Are you okay?"
"We shouted for help just now, why didn't anyone come to save us", it was naturally Zhao Dong who questioned the fat crew.
"Who dares to save this, everyone who runs on the water knows that it is a water ghost looking for a stand-in, who dares to come"
"The water ghost is looking for a stand-in?"
"With so many people dying in the river, these water ghosts have to find a substitute to get rid of themselves, and every year passengers jump from the boat into the river.
There were still people to save these early years, but none of them could come up, and those who jumped down to save them all died, and now who dares to save them. ”
"Besides, if you don't drown a few people, the water ghosts in the water will pull us backs."
The fat man said these words as if he didn't save him when he saw death, as if it were a matter of course.
Lacey looked at him coldly, I didn't want to talk to the fat man anymore, and I didn't want Lacey to cause anything, so I said to everyone, "Go back to the room first."
When I went up the stairs, I saw Bai Xue in front of me, and I remembered how scared she was just now, and I really wanted to protect her, so I really wanted not to go to Wuxi, not to go to the primeval forest, and to be by her side. But after two months of contact with Master Mao and Master Shang, although Master Mao did not accept me as an apprentice, I have already regarded Master Mao as a master. I also know that I carry a burden on my shoulders, and this burden is called responsibility.
Get the ghost lingzhi to save Master Shang's life, this is my responsibility, this is a task that I must complete.
Thinking of Master Mao, I really want to slap myself, in this situation just now, I have at least three ways to restrain those water ghosts, and then use charms to injure them, or drive them away.
Back in the room, Bai Xue and Huang Yongmei combed their hair with their hands, Bai Xue's white clothes were also dirty, and with that scared look, they looked pitiful.
"I'm sorry, I actually had a way to scare away the stuff in the water."
I said again, "This is the first time I've encountered this kind of thing, and I completely forgot the method taught by Master Mao." ”
"Then why don't you use it", Zhang San had a somewhat blaming tone, I don't blame him, it was really dangerous just now, and he was mostly angry with Laixi, angry Laixi just let go of his hand.
"This is the first time I've used it, and I was in such a hurry just now that I forgot to use it. I'll teach you a mantra first, and if you recite it, you won't be afraid, and I don't believe you can follow me. ”
At that moment, I taught everyone the Don't Be Afraid mantra, except for Lacey, who sat alone and smoked, everyone else followed me to recite the Don't Be Afraid mantra three times, and sure enough, everyone's faces were better, and their voices were normal, this mantra was really invincible.
I was happy and told everyone, "We just said that word, and it is generally not said in places where there is a lot of water at night." ”
Before I finished speaking, Zhao Dong asked me, "Which word?" You really don't understand or fake don't understand, but it seems that everyone doesn't seem to understand, oh, I am the only one who heard what the female ghost in red said to me just now.
"Don't talk about people during the day, don't talk about ...... at night"
"Ghost" Huang Yongmei didn't know what she was thinking, and suddenly pronounced the word.
I hurriedly stopped Huang Yongmei, "Don't say it, we just said this word to lure them out, and it was fine, it is estimated that we wiped our eyes with the powder of the crow's eyeballs to provoke them."
Everything is calm.
It's okay.
This will be Huang Yongmei said the ghost word and will be fine.
It seems that it was too close to the water just now.
At this time, everyone was not afraid again, and Bai Xue and Huang Yongmei did not mention going back.
"It seems that it will be okay in the future, I will teach you a mantra, that is, a mantra to ward off evil spirits, if you are afraid, you can recite the mantra without being afraid, you can also recite it silently in your heart, if you see something, or feel something, for example, like just now, you can shout loudly, ha"
"Hmph~"
"Ha~"
After the demonstration, I explained to everyone, "Hum Ha Er will be the two door gods of the Buddhist guardian temple, and if they want to control the enemy, they will use the two sounds of Hum and Ha to control the enemy." Hum ha, these two sounds can ward off evil spirits"
"By the way, all five of us were almost pulled into the water just now, only Lacey was fine" We all turned to look at Lacey.
Lacey spat out a smoke ring, "This is called evil spirits and afraid of evil people."
I nodded, "It's true, people who are too vicious are angry, Master Mao said that most of the courts and police officers who are soldiers are not afraid of evil, and their clothes have the national emblem on them, carrying the righteousness of a country, this is to ward off evil spirits." Coupled with the masculinity of being a soldier, especially those who have fought or killed many people like Lacey, this kind of person is vicious, murderous, and born to ward off evil spirits. ”
Lacey said, "I think it's still the evil spirits I said are afraid of the wicked."
Lacey said two words in a row, and we all forgot to remind him, but nothing happened, and slowly faded away.
Although Bai Xue and Huang Yongmei didn't mention it back, I have to think of some ways to avoid encountering this incident again in the future. I opened the wooden box, took out the triangular talisman that Master Mao gave me two months ago and handed it to Bai Xue. Huang Yongmei, Zhao Dong, and Zhang San next to me all looked for me, so I went to the wooden box to find them, and turned out three ghost-exorcising talismans and folded them into triangles for them to take with them.
There were only three, and Lacey and I didn't. I can't draw it myself, and although I learned to draw symbols, I don't have the magic to draw them.
Zhang San smiled and said obediently, "Why is Bai Xue's one special" I knew he was joking and helping me, but I didn't know how to answer. Bai Xue handed her talisman to Zhang San, "Then you can go there." "I don't want it, Xiaoshuai gave it to you", Zhang San hid to the side. Bai Xue gave the talisman to Huang Yongmei, and exchanged it with Huang Yongmei, I felt a little sad in my heart, a little angry.
