Chapter 19: The Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts

Hao Jiyou handed over the ghost bone and asked diligently:

"Brother Lei, do you want my little brother to accompany you? Although I don't know how to spell, I have pure yang tongue and blood. If you encounter danger, don't worry, I will be the first to rush forward, willing to reward my confidant with blood, and the wax torch will turn into ashes and tears will begin to dry......"

"Excuse me!" Zhuge Lei didn't appreciate it, took Fang Xiaoqing's hand, and walked towards the mountain.

Hao Jiyou was suddenly deflated, sighed, and had a long grudge, like a little daughter-in-law who had been abandoned.

Fang Li looked at the moon in the sky, and suddenly shouted at Zhuge Lei, "Zhuge ...... Tonight is the 14th of July, and legend has it that the door of ghosts has been wide open these days, and you ...... Be careful! ”

Hao Jiyou also thought about it, and then shouted: "Yes, yes, maybe there are hundreds of ghosts walking at night or something, Brother Lei, you have to be careful." In case of danger, call me out loud, and I will save you! ”

"Hyakki Night Walk? You're here to save me? Hehe......" Zhuge Lei snorted, took Fang Xiaoqing and continued to go up the mountain, chanting loudly:

"The Tao is not equal to the body, and it is common to look at this matter with an open heart. The thousand-year-old iron tree flower is easy to open, and it is difficult to be born in the red dust. It is difficult to achieve the Tao without Dan, and the Tao and the Tao support each other to prohibit the world. There is no gold list in the sky, and the world is the first to ride the clouds. Fools learn a lot of right and wrong, and they can visit the mysteries and leak the heavens. There is no door to hell, and there are passers-by in heaven......"

Fang Xiaoqing took Zhuge Lei's hand, walked up the mountain slowly, not afraid at all, and asked, "Cousin, what kind of poem are you reading?" It seems to be very profound. ”

Zhuge Lei smiled: "It is a poem in our Daomen." By the way, Xiaoqing, when you go up the mountain later, you may see a lot of ghosts, will you be afraid? ”

Fang Xiaoqing shook her head and said with a smile: "With my cousin, I'm not afraid." My cousin has a lot of skills, and he will beat all those old ghosts and little ghosts, right? ”

Zhuge Lei laughed: "Haha, Xiaoqing is right, cousin will protect you!" ”

The moonlight is dim and hazy.

The two talked and laughed, and they had reached the ridge.

Cihang Temple is just outside the west side of Erli Road, and the outline of the ancient temple can be seen in the dim moonlight.

Zhuge Lei pointed to the north slope and said, "Let's go over there." ”

Fang Xiaoqing nodded, crossed the ridge with Zhuge Lei, and walked towards the northern slope.

There was a haze on the northern slope that shrouded a large cemetery.

In this haze, a little ghost fire floats.

The night wind swirled, causing the grass to sway, and whimpering among the branches and leaves.

In the distance, there were occasional crows crying at night, desolate and piercing, and the sound was heartbreaking.

Fang Xiaoqing was inevitably a little scared, and held one of Zhuge Lei's arms in her arms.

"Xiaoqing, don't be afraid, I'll take you to see fun things later." Zhuge Lei comforted Fang Xiaoqing, pinched his fingers again, and tapped on his and Fang Xiaoqing's shoulders and foreheads.

"Cousin, why are you poking me?" Fang Xiaoqing didn't know what to do.

"It's okay, I just put out three yang fires on top of you, so as not to scare away those old ghosts and little ghosts. Let's go, I'll take you to see the ghosts, let you see what the ghosts look like. Zhuge Lei laughed.

The three fires on the body of a living person are symbols of the three souls, which are on the shoulders and on the top of the head.

These three fires cannot be seen by oneself or others, but ghosts can see them. If a person is not prosperous, he is easily bullied and played by ghosts. Therefore, the old people often warn young people not to hook their shoulders when walking at night. If you hook your shoulders and back, you will block the yang fire on your shoulders, and it is easy to attract lonely ghosts.

Zhuge Lei extinguished the yang fire of himself and Fang Xiaoqing in order to hide his strength and lure the snake out of the hole.

According to Zhuge Lei's speculation, Fang Xiaoqing's life soul broke out of the mirror last night, and it must not go far, it should be near Cihang Temple.

And in this cemetery on the northern slope of Longji Mountain in front of him, the yin qi gathers but does not disperse, there are countless lonely souls and wild ghosts, and Fang Xiaoqing's life soul is very likely to be here.

The so-called people are divided into groups by like, and ghosts are no exception.

If the yang fire is not extinguished, Fang Xiaoqing's soul will not dare to approach the main body, and it will be difficult to succeed in conjuring the soul.

Fang Xiaoqing didn't understand these truths, but just followed Zhuge Lei and gradually approached the cemetery.

This cemetery covers an area of about three or four acres, with high and low graves spread out continuously, and the eye can see endlessly under the night. There are many tombstones, interspersed with grass and low trees, and it looks particularly eerie.

Because of the Midyear Festival, many people come here to worship their ancestors, so there is a lot of paper ash on the ground, which is blown up by the night wind and flies like butterflies.

Zhuge Lei stood for a moment, silently recited the mantra, opened his eyes, and scanned the cemetery.

I saw that on the cemetery, there were many ghosts in groups of three or five, male ghosts and female ghosts, ghosts of death, lonely souls and wild ghosts, and so on.

Those ghosts were also looking at Zhuge Lei and Fang Xiaoqing, most of the ghosts had indifferent eyes, and there were also a few old ghosts with vicious eyes.

There are also many unconscious dead spirits, one by one, with dull faces, wandering aimlessly.

Zhuge Lei nodded and said with a smile: "It's still early, and when it's late at night, I'm afraid it will be even more lively." ”

Fang Xiaoqing couldn't see those ghosts, and she didn't understand what Zhuge Lei meant, so she asked, "Cousin, after late at night, will it be very lively here?" ”

"yes, it should be a bit of a buzz by then...... Xiaoqing, let's go to the middle of the cemetery and have a look. Zhuge Lei said vaguely, and took Fang Xiaoqing's hand and walked towards the depths of the cemetery.

Seeing Zhuge Lei and Fang Xiaoqing enter the cemetery, those ghosts avoided one after another, floating out a few feet away, staring at the young couple from a distance.

Fang Xiaoqing looked around as she walked, and asked, "Cousin, didn't you say that there are a lot of ghosts here?" Why didn't I see it? ”

"Don't worry, I'll open the eye of heaven for you later, and you can see it." Zhuge Lei said.

Coming to the middle of the cemetery, Zhuge Lei let go of Fang Xiaoqing's hand, took out five ghost bones, and inserted them on the five graves respectively, forming a circle, encircling an area of about three or four zhang square.

The ghosts on the cemetery didn't know what Zhuge Lei was doing, so they all slowly approached and watched from two feet away.

Those five ghost bones are the five soul-chasing boys last night, because they were severely injured last night, so their vitality has not yet recovered, and they can't turn into ghosts.

But the yin qi here is extremely heavy, and the ghost bones have been moistened and blessed by the yin qi, and they are all ready to move, trembling incessantly.

Zhuge Lei pointed around, turned around, and said loudly:

"Maoshan disciples practice the Dharma here, all lonely souls, wild ghosts, ghosts, and loyal souls of yin spirits, and good people, do not approach my circle, limited to these five ghost bones. Enter my ghost bone circle, don't talk about killing, don't say it's unpredictable! ”

As soon as these words came out, the ghosts all stepped back more than a foot and did not dare to approach.

"Hahaha, that's good!" Zhuge Lei Yile stretched out his feet to slightly flatten the highest grave in the ghost bone circle, and said to Fang Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing, let's sit on the grave." ”

"Cousin, isn't that big, is it? When we sit on the grave, is it too rude to the people in the grave? Fang Xiaoqing hesitated.
