Chapter 5 The Paper Man Leads the Way
My face turned white in an instant, and the cold hair on my body stood up, and I quickly turned around to look at Ding Fei, but there was no one behind me, how could there be Ding Fei's shadow, I just focused on chasing the thief, Ding Fei was not as fast as me, and now it is estimated that he has already run away.
I lost my backbone all of a sudden, cold sweat seeped out of my forehead, turned around and ran back, I had just run out of breath, and now I don't know where another strength came, I ran faster than just now, but what made me even more desperate was that I couldn't find the way I just came in, and I ran for a long time and returned to the paper man.
I turned my head and ran back, but found that I was always in this place all the time, I couldn't get out at all, I shivered and took out my mobile phone to call Ding Fei, and found that there was no signal in this place, I turned on the compass on my mobile phone and ran in one direction, but the result was still the same, after a few times I was really exhausted, and I sat on the ground with my ass, and my clothes were soaked with sweat.
"Huhu, him, just do what you like, don't scare me if you have the ability, I asked myself if I didn't do anything bad, it's a big deal to be a ghost together, I still have to take revenge on you!"
There was only my own voice in the empty woods, and I deliberately raised my voice a little, which was considered to be emboldening myself, and since I couldn't run out at this point, it was useless to be afraid, and it would be easy to do it if I used energy until dawn.
I turned on the flashlight function of my mobile phone, and began to shine around, because I could only see a few meters away from the light, I saw the paper man lying on the ground, and unconsciously remembered that night in Xiaofanzhuang Village, the family at the entrance of the village died is this kind of paper man, but the paper man will move this kind of thing is too weird.
Suddenly, I saw a person standing next to me out of the corner of my eye, and quickly turned my eyes to look and found that there was nothing, only a few big trees, I rubbed my eyes and wondered if this was an illusion, at this time I felt as if someone was patting my shoulder with my hand, I jumped forward with my natural reaction, and quickly turned around, and saw a person dressed as a Taoist priest, wearing a moon-white Taoist robe, looking very thin but his eyes were very bright, and his long beard was a little white, staring at me and laughing.
"You're a human or a ghost!" I pointed a stick at him.
The Taoist priest smiled and said, "Your name is Mao Xiaoluo, you are just twenty years old this year!" ”
I was surprised, but I nodded anyway and asked, "How do you know me?" ”
The Taoist priest did not answer me, but pointed to my chest and said, "You can open your amulet now and take a look." ”
I couldn't care about being surprised, I quickly took out the purse with the amulet, and found that there was no damage, I looked at the old Tao suspiciously, and saw that the old way was still very calm, I began to continue to lower my head to open the purse, and when I completely opened the purse, I was completely stupid, because there was no amulet in the purse, only a ball of paper ash.
"What's going on, this, this"
I couldn't help but shout out, because I clearly remember that when I was a child, because I was naughty, I specially opened this purse to see, there was a golden charm inside, I didn't understand anything at the time and played with the charm, and then my mother found out and beat me hard, since then I have never opened it, I don't know when this golden charm became this pile of paper ashes.
Seeing that I couldn't speak with my mouth open, the Taoist priest laughed and said, "Did you hit a ghost a few days ago, or did you encounter something weird?" ”
I said in my heart that of course, isn't it the weirdest thing that the paper man can run, but listening to his meaning is not today, I immediately remembered the incident in Xiaofanzhuang Village, and said, "Two days ago, when I went to deliver the goods at night, I met a family member who died, and then the family of the dead man fell into evil and grabbed my neck, and was later rescued by my friend." ”
The Taoist priest shook his head after hearing this, and sighed in his mouth pitiful, pitiful.
I also feel quite pitiful, I wanted to make money but I didn't expect to almost lose my life, today I caught a thief and caught a paper man, even the amulet my mother gave me is gone, now I don't dare to go home, otherwise my mother will have to kill me.
Thinking like this, I also sighed in my mouth, and said, "I didn't expect that even the Taoist chief thought I was pitiful." ”
The Taoist priest laughed when he heard me say this, and said, "I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the poor person who died, so many people, he doesn't harm you, you have a poor way to exorcise evil spirits, isn't he asking for hardship, presumably now his soul is scattered." ”
As soon as I heard this, I immediately thought of the story that my mother had told me, saying that the story of being given a talisman back then, could it be that the Taoist priest in front of me was the Qing Yuanzi of the year, I jumped up excitedly, and said, "Daoist, you are the master of Qing Yuanzi?" ”
The Taoist priest nodded with a smile on his long beard, and said, "I already knew about that rune when it was destroyed, and it took me two days to get here, trying my best to lure you over, I don't want to know that you came after you today." ”
"Is this paper man you?"
"Just a little bit of spelling." Qing Yuanzi's face was indifferent.
I'm really excited and worshipful, this is obviously not a so-called trick, but really happened, my heart was directly in a mess, the original understanding of this world collapsed instantly, and I knelt down directly to Lao Dao, "Thank you master for saving your life!" ”
Qing Yuanzi hurriedly helped me up, looked at me carefully, and said, "I thought you would be scared and fainted by this paper man, but I didn't expect you to really have energy, but I wasn't intimidated by my little trick, but your bumpy life has just begun, twenty years ago, I just finished dealing with a matter and passed by your door, and I have already told you my fate, and we are also fateful, since you also know me, I am ready to pass on some of your skills, maybe I can help you solve disasters a little, how about it?" ”
I hurriedly knelt down for Lao Dao again, "Master is above, the apprentice has kowtowed to you!" ”
I really kowtowed on the ground three times, the fear just now was swept away, now I am not afraid of anything, there is nothing to be afraid of with such a good master.
Qing Yuanzi smiled and agreed to call me up, I quickly stood up and said, "Master, after I learn your skills, will I be able to fly the eaves and walk the wall to subdue demons and eliminate demons?" ”
This sentence really made Qing Yuanzi smile a little bitterly, and said, "If you can really fly the eaves and walk the wall, will you still have to run around for two days to come here, as for whether you can subdue demons and eliminate demons, it depends on your own ability, if you do this, you have to put life and death aside, and those who are greedy for life and afraid of death will be embarrassed by the ancestors!" ”
As soon as I heard it, it was all the plot of the movie, and it was not unreasonable to hear the master say this, and said, "Master, what sect do we belong to, and who is the ancestor master?" ”
With a look of reverence on his face, the master said, "Our lineage is an authentic Laoshan Taoist, and the ancestor is a Lingxu master, and he finally founded our lineage by eliminating demons all his life. ”
"Master, legend has it that the founder of Laoshan Taoist is not Zhang Sanfeng, I haven't heard of Master Lingxu." I looked confused.
"That's right, Zhang Sanfeng is indeed one of the founders of Laoshan Taoist, but he mainly created qigong and Taijiquan, while our ancestor is not, mainly to create the secret method of catching ghosts and subduing demons, this door is mainly to conform to the way of heaven, for the way of heaven, those resentful ghosts refuse to be reincarnated, zombies harm people are against the way of heaven, we are responsible for getting rid of them." Master's face was full of determination.
I nodded in agreement, feeling that our faction was really amazing, and I continued to ask Master, "Are there really ghosts and zombies in this world, and why did I encounter a strange thing when I was so old?" ”
Master looked at me and said, "Of course there is, there are no wonders in this world, just because you haven't encountered it doesn't mean that others haven't encountered it, it's just that everyone taboos this kind of thing, and they usually keep their mouths shut, and I've encountered zombies several times as a teacher!" ”
"And you're all gone?" I asked eagerly.
The master nodded, "I have been practicing for many years as a teacher, and ordinary little ghosts only have a soul to scatter when I see a teacher, if you practice well, you can become a great tool sooner or later." ”
If Ding Fei is in front of me, I can happily hug him and kiss him, I am so excited that I don't know what to say, the master saw that I was smiling, and continued, "Don't be complacent too early, even a paper figure can scare you like this, if you really meet a ghost, your frightened legs are weak, even if you have the ability, you can't make it, for the teacher, I will give you this "Qingyuan Gong" now, this is what I wrote myself, and it records most of the secret methods in the sect and my own understanding, you can practice well!" ”
Master took out an old-fashioned book from his bosom and handed it to me, I respectfully took it, and couldn't wait to look at it twice, and saw that it recorded the characteristics of various ghosts and how to surrender, as well as how to talk about spells, open yin eyes, etc., I felt like I was in a dream, and I didn't know what it was like to feel in the clouds.
Master handed me another package, and I opened it to see that it was a three-foot-long peachwood sword, a gossip mirror slightly larger than the palm of my hand, and a yellow robe.
"Don't think that things are useless when they are small, these three things can help you preach, so be sure to keep them carefully."
I nodded vigorously, rewrapped the package, the master simply taught me the method of cultivation, how to practice qi, and explained that the cultivation path must first strengthen the body, without enough physical strength can not defeat the ghosts, I agreed one by one, and soon the time was in the second half of the night, and the master handed over some basic methods to me before leaving.
"Master, do you still have a charm on your body, look at this in my purse, my mother has to beat me when I go back!" When I say this, I want a few more in case something happens to save my life.
Master reached out and took out a golden charm from his bosom, which shone with a glimmer of light in this boundless dark night, and I quickly reached out and took it and put it in my purse like a treasure.
"In addition, I have to tell you one thing, the Destiny Calamity is not just the end of killing someone, you will also hurt the people around you, the only way to solve it is to work hard to learn the Tao, and when you really have the ability, you don't have to be afraid!"
I nodded again and again, seeing that Master was so powerful, I still had quite confidence in myself.
After hearing so much, I still felt a little thirsty, so I asked Master what his phone number was, and asked him if there was anything he didn't understand, but Master said that he never used a phone, asked me for my phone number, and said that he would take the initiative to contact me if necessary, and then turned around and walked away.
Watching Master's figure disappear from sight, I really felt that I had met a master, and when I turned around to pick up the stick, I remembered that I had just lost my way, and quickly shouted, "Master, I don't know how to get out!" ”
Master's voice came from afar, "I've already broken this illusion for you, you came out by yourself!" ”
