Chapter 007: Ghost Hunting
saw that the old man shook his head and said, "Don't touch this yet, dig up the tombstone." ”
"Okay." I got up and dug around the wooden box, and after a while, I found a tombstone, saying that the tombstone was nothing more than a broken bluestone slab, which looked like the leftover scraps of other people's use.
My strength is not enough, it was the old man who lifted the tombstone, don't look at the old man's age, but his strength is not weaker than that of the average strong guy, and dozens of pounds of bluestone slabs are lifted up.
The bluestone slab had been buried in the soil for a long time, and the color was dull, and the old man had to move the bluestone slab to the water's edge to clean it properly.
After a flip through the cleaning, the words on the bluestone slab appeared in front of our eyes, and the front was naturally the names and origins of the three dead people, which was useless.
What really makes us care is a line of small print on the side of the tombstone:
I call myself Nanshan Taoist, to save the common people as their own responsibility, but the world is in chaos, the dynasty is destroyed, I can only travel in all directions, accidentally passing by here, see the demons rampant here, the special practice of six Ding Liujia law to seal the demons, if the demons break out of the seal in the future, should be, black dog blood, rooster blood and the blood of the boy of the extreme yin people poured all over the coffin, take out the magic and Taoism I sealed here, in order to subdue the demon and subdue the demon.
Written by Nanshan Daoren
The old man and I stared at each other for a long time, this matter is beyond my cognition, I used to hear the story of those demons and monsters with relish, but when I really want to face those demons and monsters, anyone's heart will tremble.
Although I was very flustered, but the old man was not confused, and it could even be said that he was calm, and the old man's eyes suddenly flashed a fine light, and he returned to the boat to take a small porcelain bottle, and suddenly pulled out the knife on his waist, and snatched the little black dog from my arms.
"What are you doing?" I asked out loud.
"I don't kill it, I just borrow some blood." The old man didn't even look at me and said, the knife made a small cut on the little black dog, and a few drops of blood oozed out, all of which were caught by the old man's knife.
Immediately afterwards, the old man poured out a medium of red powder from a small porcelain bottle, mixed it with the blood of the little black dog, and said to me, "Come here!" ”
There seemed to be a special magic in the old man's voice, and my body walked forward uncomfortably, and when I came over, the old man bared his teeth and smiled: "This is a good boy." ”
The old man reached out and rubbed the mixture on my eyebrows, and I could only let the old man do it, and the thing gave me a cool feeling on my eyebrows.
"What is this?"
"Cinnabar and black dog blood."
"Why do you want to smear me with this stuff?"
The old man said: "Go to the evil, so that you can survive tonight, this matter cannot be solved today, wait for tomorrow." ”
"And we'll go home now?" I looked at the old man with hopeful eyes, and no one wanted to speak next to a grave that had been dug up.
The old man gave me a blank look, "It's not done yet, what kind of home are you going to!" ”
"Errands?" I looked at the old man for some reason.
But the old man ignored me, took out a box of matches from his bosom, and lit all the matches with a bang, and the matches were as bright as a torch in the old man's hand, and I saw the old man go to the rotten wooden box, and when he opened the box, he threw the whole box of matches into it.
It didn't take long for black smoke to start rising from around the chest, and the entire box began to burn, and the black smoke billowed into the sky.
At this time, there was a gust of wind blowing for no reason, and there were three terrible sounds in the wind, as if a ghost was crying.
"Old man..."
"Don't be afraid!" The old man smiled and said: "They are just bluffing, it is noon, and the yang energy is the heaviest, if they dare to come out and harm others, they will kill themselves." ”
I looked up at the sun in the sky, and I only felt that it was very hot, it was indeed noon, and I was not afraid if I had the confidence in my heart, and the yin wind continued to blow but it didn't take long to disperse.
After the rotten wooden box burned out, the old man sighed and said, "Without their sustenance, it can weaken them for a while." ”
Originally, I thought I could go back, but the old man didn't know what was crazy and asked me to fill in the pit, I could only find what he said, fill the pit so tired that I want to die or live, the old man also took the bluestone slab tombstone and rammed it in the soil, and the two of us got off the boat to go home after all this was done.
On the boat, I asked the old man why he wanted to fill in the hole, and the old man smiled and asked me, "How would you feel if your grave was dug up?" ”
"Then what do you feel, don't let him go when you are a ghost!" I said immediately.
The old man said, "How would you feel if that man added to your grave?" ”
"Then I feel a little better, but I still hate it!" I thought about it and said.
"That's not it." The old man explained: "The reason why the pit was filled in and the monument was erected was only to reduce some of their resentment, so that they would not become powerful ghosts, and also to make it easier to destroy them in the future." ”
"So maybe they've become ghosts?" I continued.
"No, according to what you saw in your dreams, they died in an accident, and the most resentful of the overseer is the marquis, but the marquis of the overseer has been dead for hundreds of years, and the possibility of them becoming powerful ghosts is not great, if they really become terrible ghosts, this is also a catastrophe for the people of Liangjiang."
I sighed, and I could only pray to the gods and goddesses in the sky in my heart, hoping that they would not become powerful ghosts, and that in addition to the three of them as soon as possible, the people of Liangjiang would be peaceful.
It was noon, the river was exceptionally calm, the evil things in the water did not dare to come out to make a time, the boat flickered back to the shore, there was not only one boat on the shore, there were more than a dozen boats, but they have been abandoned, since the flood a few years ago, the people of the two rivers also knew that the river was not very peaceful, and they did not even dare to approach the shore, and the small village that had been fishing for a living had become a farming village.
The old man tied up the boat and took me back to the village, knowing that I was being targeted by ghasts, I and the old man Zhou Shen both exuded an eerie aura, and the uncles and aunts in the village gathered together to talk and laugh happily, and saw that we both stopped, as if we were plague gods.
After walking for a while, I realized that this road was not the way back, and I couldn't help asking, "Old man, where are we going, this is not the way back?" ”
"Go and raise the materials first, otherwise those guys will be too late to come out and harm people." The old man said.
"Oh..."I answered, the little black dog in my arms looked sleepily, I was helpless about this little black dog, this guy is really lazy, almost no waking up a day, is this still a dog? Cats don't sleep like this.
The old man touched the little black dog's head, "This dog is really lazy, if there were no other dogs, I wouldn't have bought it." ”
"It's a little lazy, but it's still cute." I touched the little black dog's head and said.
The old man smiled and did not speak again.
The old man took me to a chicken farm in the village, which was run by himself but also raised hundreds of chickens.
"Hey, Uncle Wang, why do you have time to come to me today." The old man was obviously a frequent visitor here, and Hu San, the owner of the chicken farm, immediately greeted him with a smile when he saw him.
"There's no blood from the rooster you just killed, right?" The old man said coldly.
Hu San smiled, but he didn't refute, the old man took out a twenty yuan from his pocket and handed it to Hu San, saying, "Find me a big rooster with the most momentum, do you know?" ”
"Well, what I found you must be the biggest and most majestic attack, don't worry." Hu Sanxi, who took the money, ran to the back with a smile, and came out again after a while, with a huge rooster in his hand.
The old man wanted to reach over and touch it but was pecked by this big rooster, the old man smiled, nodded and said, "Yes, it's fierce enough, this money is not unjustly spent!" ”
Hu San said with a smile: "That's okay, Uncle Wang will come back when he has time, and there will be big and fierce roosters!" ”
"Okay, I'll be sure to look for you the next time I need it." The old man who got a big rooster with a majestic rooster was also in a much better mood, and said to Hu San with a smile.
The old man patted me on the shoulder, "Baby, let's go!" ”
I answered, and followed behind the old man's buttocks, and the old man walked in front with a bamboo cage, humming a little song in his mouth, and he was in a good mood.
Along the way, I asked many old men and told me all, in fact, we just need to prepare the rooster blood, as for the black dog blood, the little black dog in my arms is so fat and it is nothing to put some blood, and I have the child's blood of the extreme yin person, and I don't need too many drops.
When I returned to my residence, it was almost dusk, and the old man led me to look in front of the bronze mirror again, the old man was very clean, and I was much better, at least it was no longer the image of a bloody man, and there was still a little clean place on my body.
I vaguely guessed that this might be because the old man smeared black dog blood and cinnabar on my eyebrows, and I had a little more good impression of the old man in my heart.
At dinner I had a whole roast chicken, the big rooster I bought at the chicken farm, the blood had been cleaned into the jar, and the rest of the chicken was our dinner.
The old man only ate a little bit of meat, chicken legs and wings or something didn't move at all, and I was not stupid, of course I knew what the old man meant, and ate the chicken legs in a big gulp, remembering the old man's good.
After eating, the old man actually made a fishing net that had not been used for a long time, and the fishing net was broken with several holes, and the old man was repairing it.
I ate the chicken leg in my mouth and asked, "Old man, what are you doing with fishing nets, go out fishing, I'm afraid there is nothing clean in the river." ”
The old man didn't raise his head and said, "It's not fishing, it's ghost hunting." ”
I couldn't help but ask, "What the hell can you catch with a fishing net?" Just kidding. ”
"Of course, you can't grasp those things with empty heads, but you can catch them in real things."
"What do you mean?"
