Chapter 11 The Eight Characters of the Ghost Gate
"Do you think Li Hao will be a member of the Bai family?" I asked.
Old man Xia didn't answer me, I thought he didn't hear clearly, and was about to ask again, when I suddenly saw him look strange, one hand clenched into a fist, and the flesh of his cheek was trembling slightly. I immediately became alert, could it be that the people of the Bai family are here again?
"Xu Dewei gave you a photo of a woman with a unicorn tattoo on it, did you read it right?"
Old man Xia's breath was very chaotic and he seemed very excited. I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he must have thought that the person in the photo was Wei Yanzi. As long as he hears the information about Wei Yanzi, this old man will be like a hairy boy.
"It's not a full-body photo, and it doesn't have a face, but I'm sure it's a woman."
"It must be Yanzi, so they are really from the Bai family." Old man Xia ignored me anymore, and said to himself: "That's right, before Yanzi disappeared, Xin'an was the last stop, and the Bai family would definitely send someone to garrison here." ”
Looking at Old Man Xia's chattering and excited appearance, I began to hesitate to tell him about Liu Liang, according to Liu Liang, the blind old lady who gave him the old bones was Wei Yanzi nine times out of ten. But he also said that Wei Yanzi's situation is very bad, almost half of his body is in the coffin, and after such a long time, I am afraid that he will be dead for a long time.
After thinking about it for a while, I decided to tell him that there was no need to hide this kind of thing from him, and let him stop thinking about it, otherwise in the long run, he would get a nervous disorder sooner or later.
"Old man, I still have some news about Wei Yanzi, but you have to be mentally prepared first." I was really afraid that he wouldn't be able to stand the blow, so I reassured him in advance.
Sure enough, as soon as Wei Yanzi was mentioned, the old guy was immediately attracted to attention, and urged vigorously, "Hurry up, what is the news." "I don't care if I call him an old man without respect.
I took a deep breath and told Liu Liang about it in general, observing the changes in Old Man Xia's expression as I spoke, and finally concluded: "You are mourning, Wei Yanzi is likely to have ......."
"Impossible."
Before I finished speaking, Old Man Xia stood up suddenly, almost screaming out these three words, the green muscles and veins on his face all protruded from his skin, and the whole person exuded a terrifying coercion, no less than the momentum given to me by the female ghost in white, which was extremely terrifying.
My whole body trembled, I didn't expect this skinny little old man to explode so violently. But with a flicker, the momentum on Old Man Xia's body disappeared, and he became that weak and windy again, looking like he had lost his soul, his eyes were scattered, and then he sat down on the sofa with his butt slumped, as if he had aged many years all of a sudden.
My heart was pounding, and I didn't dare to talk to him, and I felt sad when I saw him at the moment.
The room became a silent stage, Old Man Xia and I sat on our chairs, no one made a sound, the air seemed to be stagnant, and the atmosphere was extremely heavy. It was really hard to sit still in this atmosphere, and soon I couldn't sit still and decided to leave, and besides, it was not appropriate for me to stay here.
"That, Old Xia, you see it's so late, I'll go back first, and I'll come to see you tomorrow." I whispered, but Old Man Xia looked blank, as if he hadn't heard what I said at all.
I sighed, glanced at him worriedly, got up and prepared to leave, and when I arrived at the door, I just held the doorknob, and the voice of the old man Xia suddenly sounded behind me.
"You're going to sleep here tonight."
I turned around in surprise, and saw that Old Man Xia also got up, with tears in his eyes, and said with a haggard face: "The person who came today was injured by me, and he will not trouble you again for a while, but it doesn't mean that no one else from the Bai family will come, and I have something for you, which was left to me by Wei Yanzi back then, let me wait for the next host to appear and give it to him." ”
When the name Wei Yanzi was mentioned, Old Man Xia's eyes dimmed, his body shook, and he almost fell, but finally he waved his hand at me and said, "You are waiting here." After saying that, he went up the stairs on the left to the third floor.
When he came down again, he had an antique wooden box in his hand, about the size of A4 paper, with a crane branch carved on it, no keyhole, and a wooden piggyback.
"What's in there?" I was curious.
"You open it yourself, I'll go to sleep first, you sleep in that room." Old man Xia said stiffly, pointing to the bedroom in front of him on the left.
I didn't want to ask any further, so I answered and went into the bedroom. The bedroom is very hot, only a small window is ventilated, exuding a faint musty smell, the quilt on the bed is very neatly folded, but the quilt is a little wet, Xin'an belongs to the temperate monsoon climate, the four seasons are distinct, the summer is hot and rainy and very humid.
To the left of the bed are two old-fashioned red lacquered wardrobes, which reminds me of my grandmother's house, where most of the rooms are furnished.
Originally, I would be very sleepy after drinking, but at this moment I was sober and ruthless, I didn't bring a charger, the phone couldn't be charged, calculated the time, and now it's more than eleven o'clock. Thinking back to today, it is like having a very strange dream, terrifying and strange.
I couldn't sleep in bed for a while, so I opened the box to see what was inside. In fact, I was a little excited in my heart, thinking that some of the movies would leave some powerful treasures behind. When I opened it, I found that the contents were wrapped in patterned satin, and the shape should be a book.
Could it be some kind of martial arts cheats? I had a strange idea, and I was amused again.
This is a hand-copied book bound in a line-bound book, the pages are old and yellowed, many places are damaged, and the cover is written in Song style with four characters: Ghost Gate Bazi.
Most of the content in the book is copied in traditional characters, arranged vertically from right to left, half text and half white, many places are incomprehensible, but I was shocked after reading it, because it is full of notes written by previous hosts, and the main content is how to suppress and alleviate the method of regurgitation, as well as the research insights on the old bones.
Its method is divided into eight steps, and at the same time corresponds to the eight growth periods of the old bone and bone spirit, I immediately understood that this should be the method created by the powerful host in the Northern Song Dynasty, and some of the later hosts supplemented it.
What is the eight characters of the ghost gate, town, release, force, fall, confusion, solution, emptiness, and cracking.
The word town, from Jin, true sound, is taken from "Guangya": Town, Anye. At this time, the bone spirit has begun to open the wisdom, can distinguish yin and yang, can know good and evil, this is also the key period of the growth of the bone spirit, if calculated according to the person, should be in the people's vertical period, the consciousness is mottled with white paper, need to use the method of guarding the bone spirit to shape the bone spirit wisdom, it has a town word formula, affected by the bone spirit, the host will also have eyes and ears, strength rises.
Put, this period of the bone spirit wisdom has become, "Xiao Erya" has been released, abandon also, "Sayings" have been released, chased also, but there is also the meaning of release, the ghost door eight characters are this meaning, to put the word let the bone spirit go with the heart, so that it is closer to the host.
Force, to the force of the word period of the bone spirit is more to feed the host, its force word recipe can make the main force as big as a cow, difficult to match, and the sun is vigorous, ghosts and gods are difficult to invade, this is also the most intimate period between the bone spirit and the host.
Descending, the main refers to submission, taming, this stage of the bone spirit is lively and abnormal, the mind is annoying, and the host has a rebellious heart, most of the bone spirits eat evil ghosts and ghosts to grow, under its influence, the bone spirit will become tyrannical and active, and it is necessary to use strong means to subdue the forbidden bone spirit, just like a rebellious teenager in adolescence, only the power of thunder can make it obedient. But in the same way, the bone spirit will also become extremely intelligent, even insidious and cunning, and feeding back to the host, it will make the host exquisite and enlightened.
Confused, the bone spirit of the puzzle period is more violent, "Saying" is chaotic, from the heart of the confusion, not only has the ability to charm, but also the sound of bewitchment, its devouring evil ghost karma will disturb the consciousness of the bone spirit, thereby bewitching the host's mind, and at the same time, it will also make the host understand the method of confusion, can use illusions, and has a great impact on the mentally unfortunate.
Solution, what is the solution, not liberation, but rescue, the bone spirit of the word interpretation period will be the nightmare of all hosts, only one host in the book has spent the word understanding period, including the Northern Song Dynasty that the great power is also affected by the host at this stage, becoming a tyrannical, bloodthirsty demon, and being jointly killed by the masters of Buddhism and Taoism.
Even if the host who has passed the word interpretation period has created a word solving formula, it is also written at the back that this word solution method cannot achieve the rescue effect, only the effect of alleviation, if you want to pass the word interpretation period safely, you must purify the heart platform, and slowly pass it with the Buddha's sound and Tao mantra, but if there is a trace of disorder, you will fall into a situation from which there will be no return.
Empty, cracked, these two words do not have any interpretation, the founder is the only one who has passed the bone spirit interpretation period of the host, there is an introduction to his origin in the book, this person is a person at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the year of birth and death is unknown, mainly active in the Ming Xi Sect Zhu Youxiao during the reign, that is, the famous carpenter emperor, the elder brother of Emperor Chongzhen, at that time was known as the Lingyin Immortal, Zhu Youxiao ate the Lingyin Dew is provided by him.
It's a pity that the Lingyin Immortal disappeared suddenly, and no trace could be found, and the host behind guessed that it was related to Zhu Youxiao, because Ming Xizong was killed by eating Lingyinlu. Most of the hosts of the descendants are searching for the whereabouts of the Lingyin Immortals, and the Lingyin Immortals who have spent the literacy period may be the only ones who know the ultimate secret of the old man's bones.
Some hosts even deduced that the old bones were hiding clues to the land of eternal life, and the Lingyin Immortal must have gone to the Land of Eternal Life, but until now, no host has found the whereabouts of the Lingyin Immortal.
