After listening to Li Su's words, I stepped forward to take a look with a curious face, and my heart trembled suddenly, and at the same time, I was a little speechless.

I saw that in the monitoring screen of the screen, it just stayed at the scene where I carried Manli upstairs!

It seems that Li Su and the others are fast-forwarding, and they are all looking at me just now, so they didn't see the ceremony of me and Manli casting the paper man.

It turns out that sometimes what we see with our eyes is not necessarily true!

Just as I was thinking about how to explain to Li Su and the others, Manli walked in from the outside holding on to the door.

After walking in, Manli didn't know what had just happened, she looked at me and said a little weakly: "Brother Xiaohe, have you already given away that piece of paper?" ”

"Hmm!" I nodded, "You just finished the ritual, why don't you rest in the room for a while?" ”

"I'm not worried that you won't be able to deal with it, after all, we haven't experienced that thing, and I've learned some ways to deal with it."

Originally, Li Su was still a little angry, but when he heard Manli say this, he seemed to understand something, and took the lead in saying, "Manli, did something happen at home when we left?" ”

When Manli heard this, she looked puzzled: "Didn't Brother Xiaohe tell you?" ”

"No ......"

So, Manli spent five minutes roughly explaining what happened from the afternoon to the evening, and the three of them were stunned for a while, and when Manli finished speaking, Brother Yu said: "Look at me, I will say, your store must be haunted, Sister Manli, do you speak Japanese?" ”

Hearing this, Manli shook her head: "I don't speak Japanese, but the master taught me some Japanese pronunciation for spells." ”

Unexpectedly, after listening to this, Brother Yu smacked his lips in some disappointment: "Okay, I thought you could speak Japanese, and I want you to say something," I will listen to the butterfly~."

Me: "......"

Li Su: "........."

Manly: "........."

I couldn't help but glance at Brother Yu before frowning: "Wait a minute, I'll take a look at the monitoring first!" ”

Because of the surveillance, I was inspired, and I began to look through the daytime surveillance in the store, hoping to find out who was secretly putting this paper figure in the store.

However, I was disappointed, for some reason, the store's surveillance was actually blank during the day.

Seeing that the monitoring was malfunctioning, I was completely helpless.

Now I have a lot of questions in my heart, since Manli has come out, I directly said that there is something, and I sent Li Su and Brother Yu away, and let them go back, sleep when they should sleep, and go to the hotel when they should go to the hotel.

Li Su still muttered a little unhappy, but I'm really a little angry, this girl is really a little willful now.

Seeing that I was really angry, Li Su honestly, snorted coldly, and went upstairs.

After everyone left, I looked at Manli and asked seriously, "Manli, can you tell me what happened today?" What are we across? ”

Manli took a sip of tea before she began to explain to me: "I'm afraid what we encountered is the secret art of ancient Dongying-style divine art. ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but interrupt: "Wait a minute, is Toei Japan?" ”

"Yes, those paper figures we met are Shikigami, Shikigami, which refers to the spirits that are enslaved under the orders of the Onmyoji, and their power is related to the manipulative Onmyoji." "Formula" has the meaning of "servant". The more famous rumored ones are the twelve gods (twelve heavenly generals) served by the onmyoji Abe Harumi. ”

"When you went to see off this paper man, did you also recite the mantra of death?"

I nodded: "Exactly follow the process we prepared in advance!" ”

"That's right, as I said earlier, this paper figure is the Shikigami of Dongying's secret arts, and according to what Brother Haojie said, I can basically be sure that the imprisoned soul in this Shikigami should be the undead of the Japanese, so we will use cherry blossoms, grave soil, and sea water, these are all ways to awaken the soul of Shikigami and help it reincarnate!"

"In fact, the souls of Shikigami are very painful, if there is no special way, they may never be able to get rid of the Onmyoji's technique, and they will be enslaved and driven by the Onmyoji for life and life, and their souls will be tormented forever."

Although Manli's words sounded very thorough, I still didn't seem to understand it, and I couldn't help but continue to ask, "What is Onmyoji?" ”

Manli still patiently explained to me: "Onmyoji, according to popular terms, is our current identity, similar to Feng Shui masters, but they are very mysterious, in the Tang Dynasty, they came to Tang to learn some Feng Shui secret techniques, and after returning to Dongying, they were localized and formed Yin Yang Arts." ”

"Yin-Yang was very famous in Dongying at that time, and people at that time often asked Yin-Yang magicians to pray for their blessings and remove spirits."

"Like Xiaojiao and Abe Qingqing, they were famous yin and yang sorcerers at that time. It is said that until now, scrolls about the art of yin and yang can still be found in some ancient temples. ”

So the question is, since Onmyojutsu and Onmyoji were so powerful in ancient Japan, why did they still endure in modern times?

For this question, Manli couldn't give me a definite answer, but replied: "I don't know about this, but in fact, in ancient China, until modern times, our Chinese Taoism was pressed by Dongying's Yin-Yang Technique." ”

"But with the decline of Taoism in modern China, Yin and Yang art has gradually emerged in the world, and now it is more popular in the world, that is, Tibetan Secret and Eastern Secret!"

"Tibetan Esoteric is more mysterious and advocates personal power, and Eastern Esoteric is more advocacious in combining nature, Taoism and spells because it is evolved from the Middle Earth Daomen. So it's more powerful, but it's also tricky. ”

After listening to Manli's explanation, I nodded helplessly, in fact, I know how Chinese Taoism declined.

I can't help but sigh in my heart, everything in the world is prosperous and declining, and Chinese Daomen has dominated the world for more than a thousand years, and now it is declining, but it has made the little-known Dongmi the protagonist of modern times.

In fact, I feel very sad about the decline of Taoism in China, and the decline of Taoism in modern times has a lot to do with the Qing Dynasty.

In Chinese history, Buddhism was introduced to China in the Han Dynasty, and when Buddhism had not yet won the faith of the vast majority of the Chinese nation, Taoism had a high social influence and social status in the Wei, Jin, Sui and Tang dynasties, and also played an important role in the development of Chinese culture.

Since the gradual maturity of Taoism, Taoism's general escapism and worship of immortals are the concrete manifestations of Taoism's concept of freedom and equality, but this has also given rise to a very serious problem.
