Chapter 22: Plantain
When I was turning around with the peach beads, I could clearly see that the dark green gas was dispersed by the white light emitted by the peach beads.
This unbelievable scene made Pipxia's eyes widen, and the woman's shocked eyes were filled with joy.
Pi Pixia pulled me aside and asked softly, "Did Ma Jiudao teach you any secrets?" Take it out and share it with me! ”
As the one hundred and ninth generation disciple of the Ma family, I must have the obligation to protect the secret book of the Ma family, it is impossible to share it with him, not to mention that this matter can be solved, it is entirely because I can see what he can't see.
I whispered, "Last night, Master also taught me for the first time, anyway, he asked me to meditate for three hours before going to bed, saying that I would experience the qi of yin and yang. ”
Pipa Man was skeptical, "Really? ”
I nodded affirmatively and affirmatively.
He patted me on the shoulder with satisfaction, "It's worthy of being my eldest nephew, righteous enough, what he teaches you in the future, you remember to tell me, he doesn't accept me as an apprentice, I have to learn, and when the time comes, I must prove to him that my Pixia is no worse than my own nephew!" ”
Children, young is innocent......
When he was young, the man ran back out of breath, holding a candle and a red thread in his hand.
He glanced at me and hesitated for a long time before handing it over to me.
Men are still more vigilant, I fully understand this.
"Big brother, what's going on with my child?" The man asked.
I led him to the door, pointed to the three banana trees in the yard, and said, "One of the banana trees in your yard is eighty percent of the essence." ”
The man said in surprise: "Chengjing? This is impossible, this is impossible, the banana tree was planted by my grandfather himself, just so that everyone can have a place to cool off in the courtyard in the summer, and it has been safe and sound for decades. ”
"Don't worry, listen to me tell you slowly!" I handed him a cigarette and told him from beginning to end what I saw about youkai in "Ghost Hunting".
According to legend, there are many ways for the banana tree to become a essence, some of which can become a spirit after receiving the essence of the sun and the moon, this kind of goblin is more powerful and can transform into a human form; There are also plantain tree bodies stained with human blood, even if it is a drop of blood, it can also make the plantain tree essence, this kind of plantain tree spirit can walk freely, love is rooted wherever it is; The lower ones are the last plantain tree spirits, which are planted at the door of the house, because they are illuminated by the light, and they will become essence after a long time, and this kind of plantain tree will walk at night and return to the place where it took root during the day.
The first kind of plantain essence likes to haunt when the night is quiet, when the moon is empty, they are looking for single men and women as the target, if the other party already has a sweetheart, the plantain essence will be transformed into their sweetheart, if the other party is not in love, they will be transformed into a handsome man and a beautiful woman. In short, their purpose is to have sexual intercourse with single men and women, and those who are entangled by them not only become pale, but also lose their appetite, and they gradually lose weight, and finally slowly step towards death.
The second plantain essence likes to eat human blood, and they will often take root in sparsely populated places. If the unlucky one bumps into it, it will attack people day and night, and sweep people into its trunks, unless there is a fire, otherwise the people who are caught in it will basically not be saved.
The third plantain essence does not intercourse with people and does not suck human blood, but it likes to steal children, especially those who are not yet one year old. They will go out in the middle of the night every day, try their best to enter the room with children, little by little to take the child out, the child's eyes are bright, can see its true body, often will be scared to cry, after a long time, the three souls and seven spirits in the body will be loose, as soon as it is loose, it is easy to be taken away by the plantain essence, becoming a new small plantain seedling.
Several people present were stunned when they heard this.
Especially when the woman looked at the child's sleeping appearance, her eyes were red, "I risked my life to give birth to this child, if he can't live, I won't live either!" ”
The man frowned, "Big brother, according to what you say, should I just cut down the banana tree at the door?" ”
"You can't just cut it like this," I hurriedly said: "There are three banana trees, we don't know which one is the essence, after all, it is the essence of the plantain tree, if you want to alarm it, it will run and hide, and it will bring more violent revenge, and it will be more difficult to deal with when the time comes, we must catch its real body and cut the grass and eradicate the roots." ”
"Big brother, whatever you say is what you say, we all listen to you!" The man can only trust me wholeheartedly this time.
"Don't worry, I'm here!" I was smiling, but I was nervous. Last night, I was reading "Ghost Hunting" as a story, and I couldn't remember a lot of details, and I didn't know if the method worked.
But since I have already promised to other people's things, I have to finish it head-on, otherwise how can I be embarrassed to ask others to go to Li Dieer's room.
In short, everything is in place, just wait for the evening
……
In the evening, after dinner at the master's house, we sat in the living room until after eleven o'clock, until the lights of the upstairs and downstairs residents were almost gone, and then I asked the woman to put the sleeping child back on the bed, and ordered the couple to sit and wait in the living room.
According to the method mentioned in "Ghost Hunting", I tied the red thread to the baby's big toe, lit a red candle at the end of the bed, wound the red thread around the red candle three times, threw the other end of the thread out of the window, waited for the plantain essence to come, and then checked the red line, the red thread fell under the plantain tree, and that tree was the real body of the plantain essence.
I was worried that Pipa Man would make Basho Jing feel uneasy and unwilling to come out, so I drove him into the living room.
I lay down next to the baby with my eyes closed, pretending to be asleep.
It was about early in the morning when I heard a rustling sound by the window, and as an inexperienced person, I thought it was the flapping sound of the wind outside hitting the banana leaves. But when I listen carefully, the sound seems to move, sometimes by the window, sometimes in front of the house, and sometimes in the back of the house...... It was like walking around the room.
I've experienced all the little resentful spirits and powerful ghosts, and I'm still a little bit of a plantain essence, so I don't have the same psychological prevention ability as before.
If it's a big deal, I don't care about 3721, and I run home to find the master with the child in my arms.
I stole my eyes open and found that there was a shadow of a banana tree on the wall of the house, like a thief who had entered the house to steal something, and the wide leaves were moving little by little towards the bed like a clutch in a game.
I secretly took out the telescopic dagger in my pocket, dart at it like a flying knife from Xiao Li, jumped out of bed instantly, and yelled, "Goblin, where to go!" ”
The dark shadow burst out of the window, and I quickly ran out.
The red line was only under the window at the beginning, and now the other end of the line lies straight under the banana tree in the middle.
Afraid that it would react and run away, I twisted the red thread around the trunk of the tree.
The three people in the living room heard the movement and ran out, and I yelled at Piptian, "Quick! Take a knife and slash! ”
Pipa touched the waist of his trousers, only a small tool hammer, and without saying a word, he smashed two hammers down on the trunk of the tree.
Immediately, red blood oozed from the place where the trunk had been smashed.
The man brought a large kitchen knife from the kitchen and handed it to Pipa Man, and after Pi Pi Man exchanged it for a satisfactory weapon, he knocked down the banana tree in the middle in two or three strokes, and the red blood flowed in a puddle.
"Where's the candle!" I asked.
If you want to completely destroy the plantain essence, you must use fire.
The woman carefully escorted the red candle out and handed it to me, and I took the red candle and threw it into the blood pool on the ground, which instantly ignited a raging fire and submerged the whole plantain tree!
I saw a struggling palm inside the flames, and a brass bell in my trouser pocket fluttering.
I took the brass bell out, and it shook violently.
Master said that the bell is used to collect ghosts, and it can only be upgraded if you receive a certain number.
Maybe...... This plantain essence is about to be the beginning of my counterattack!!
I kept recalling the mantra and movements that Master had recited in his mouth when he was collecting the snow, and threw the brass bell out and chanted the mantra: "All those who are fighting in the army are arrayed forward, receive!" ”
Instead of sinking into the flames as I had imagined, the brass bell floated steadily above the flames, sucking in a hint of green flames.
I guess it's done...... I pondered, stretched out my hand to the brass bell, and it was like a flying rat that could understand human speech and gestures, and it obediently returned to my hand with a 'boom'.
If you look closely, you can see that one of the lines on the copper bell has turned purple.
I don't need to emphasize, Pi Pixia must ask me about the origin of this bell, I can only tell him truthfully that it was given by the master, he twisted his mouth, and swore that even if he went up the knife mountain and went down to the sea of fire, he would ask Ma Jiudao for one.
The plantain tree burns quickly and is reduced to ashes in less than a few minutes.
The chilling man snatched the kitchen knife from Pipman's hand, and put the other two to the ground, muttering that he would send them to the 'crematorium' tomorrow.
The woman didn't know when she went in and took the child out, and said a lot of thankful words to me.
I said, "Thank me for being simple, just do me a favor!" ”
The woman was also refreshed, went into the house and turned on all the lights, and said that if there was something wrong, she would sit inside and say.
I glanced at the third floor before I entered the house, and a red dot disappeared in seconds when it touched my eyes, like ...... One eye, everything we just did seemed to be seen by it.
It's enough to have a plantain essence in a yard, how can there be anything else? Maybe it was the flames that imprinted in my eyes just now, and it wasn't necessarily dazzling.
After comforting myself, I put the brass bell away and went back to the house with them.
The man put down the kitchen knife and ran out of the kitchen with two cups of hot tea, and said, "Master, there is nothing to entertain in the middle of the night, and you will be settled!" ”
Pay attention to the man's words, earlier he called me big brother, and now he has become a master.
How the fuck was I just now, it's a pity that I can't see it myself, next time I have this kind of opportunity, I must ask Pi Pi Xia to record it for me, hahahaha!
