Chapter 10: Master is Dead
The principle of Ziyun Zhenren's spell just now is actually that his grandfather cast a spell before, and it is the same to let the bone girl enter the Yellow Fu boarding.
However, now Ziyun Zhenren's method is more direct and domineering.
According to Ziyun Zhenren, Zhu Huiyuan forcibly sucked away the resentment curse, thus destroying her Yin Qi foundation, and if she was replaced by an ordinary ghost, it is estimated that her soul would have been scattered a long time ago, but Zhu Huiyuan's Tao is deep, so she has persisted until now, although Ziyun Zhenren has been casting spells before, but Ziyun Zhenren is old after all, and his mana is not enough, and now he can only exchange it for my ghost daughter-in-law for five years without incident.
In the past five years, Zhu Huiyuan has been completely sealed in my arm, unable to appear and can no longer communicate with me, at the same time, she also needs to continue to eat away at my vitality to live, Ziyun Zhenren told me that five years is a limit, once it exceeds five years, Zhu Huiyuan's cannibalization of my vitality will completely consume my life, and in the long run, I will definitely die in less than a year.
After Ziyun Zhenren said these few words, his face became quite ugly, I don't know why, looking at Ziyun Zhenren at this moment, I had an illusion in my heart, now he is like a lonely boat on the sea, constantly swaying with the wind, and he may be completely broken up by a sudden wave at any time.
Ziyun Zhenren seemed to be a little tired when he said this, and he stopped for a long time before continuing.
"You have five years to look for a herb called Samsara Grass, and after you find the Samsara Grass, you just need to take the Samsara Grass directly."
I didn't have any idea of this so-called "reincarnation grass", so I quickly asked, "Master, where am I going to find this reincarnation grass?" "It's just that what makes me helpless is that Ziyun Zhenren actually closes his eyes now, and there are actually a few snoring sounds coming from the tip of his nose.
Grandpa sighed and said that Ziyun Zhenren was too tired.
Grandpa got up, originally wanting to help Ziyun Zhenren to his own room, but as soon as he moved, three letters fell out of Ziyun Zhenren's robe.
One of the letters was addressed to my grandfather, and the other two letters read "God bless the pro-enlightenment" and "Gu Daozi pro-enlightenment" respectively.
Grandpa didn't know what he thought when he saw these letters, and his whole person trembled slightly, especially his right hand holding the letter to himself, which was trembling uncontrollably.
The letter looked like it had a thousand pounds, and it was a little difficult for him to hold it in his hands.
But in the end, Grandpa still opened the letter, I don't know what Grandpa saw in this letter, he didn't show me the contents of the letter, and even after reading the letter, he directly lit the letter.
But I noticed that after reading the contents of the letter, my grandfather's expression was extremely sad, and his cloudy eyes became a little moist.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you?"
Grandpa cried, this is the first time I have seen my half-immortal grandpa cry, he has always been strong and omnipotent in my impression, and the weak act of crying seems to have never appeared in him.
I'm curious about what exactly was written in Ziyun Zhenren's letter to him, which would make Grandpa react like this.
Grandpa didn't answer my words, but just asked me to get up and help Ziyun Zhenren to the futon in the main hall, and let him sit cross-legged on the futon.
At that time, I felt that my grandfather was a little naughty, and the master was so tired that he fell asleep directly, shouldn't I help him to the bed to sleep at this time? Why did you bring him here now? What puzzles me even more is that my cheap master is too good to sleep, and he can still fall asleep after being tossed by us like this.
"God bless, let your master rest here, we should also go."
I was stunned, "Just left?" So what about my master? He is so old now, and there is no one around to take care of him, I said grandpa, he is your senior brother anyway, why don't you take him to live with us? ”
My proposal was rejected by my grandfather, and he didn't say anything, just said that all this was arranged by my master.
Hearing grandpa say this, I didn't insist, but when we were about to walk out of the main hall, grandpa suddenly turned his head, his cloudy old eyes with water, looked at Ziyun Zhenren deeply, sighed, and said to me, "God, before leaving, kowtow to your master three times, he has paid too much for you." ”
Although I don't understand what grandpa means by paying too much, because in my impression, Ziyun Zhenren should be very strong, maybe it is a little troublesome to treat my ghost daughter-in-law, but it will not pay too much price.
But after all, he is my nominal master, and it is natural to kowtow to him to say goodbye before leaving.
I immediately stepped forward and kowtowed three times, "Master, thank you for everything you have done for your apprentice, the apprentice is gone now, go to find the reincarnation grass, and the apprentice will definitely come back to visit you when he has time in the future." As I spoke, I glanced up at Ziyun Zhenren.
At this time, I was surprised to find that Ziyun Zhenren's face actually showed a smile of relief.
I'm a spirit, I don't know why, I always feel like there's something more in me at the moment.
I looked around, and there was no doubt that he retracted his gaze, after all, there is a Taoist temple here, and there is a powerful real person in charge, how dare ordinary evil people come here to do evil?
I then left with my grandfather, my grandfather was silent all the way and did not speak, the atmosphere became extremely stiff for a while, I wanted to ask my grandfather several times what was wrong with him now, but looking at my grandfather's low appearance, I swallowed back the words I originally wanted to say.
It wasn't until the third day, when we were about to leave the mountains, that my grandfather suddenly handed me one of the letters he had written to me.
Curious, I took the letter, and when I opened it, I saw that there were only a few words written on it.
"God bless, although you and I have a master-apprentice relationship, but there is no division between master and apprentice, it is really helpless, at the end of life there is still an apprentice like you, it is the master's luck, but the master has no time to teach you anymore, the reincarnation grass is not what you can find now, you go to the city center now, find a feng shui shop called 'Heavenly Dao is flawless', and hand over another letter to Gu Daozi, he is your second senior brother, after reading the letter, he will take you in, and teach you for the teacher."
I stared blankly at the contents of the letter, and for a moment my mind "buzzed", and the whole person couldn't react.
I'm not stupid, I naturally understand what my master means now, especially the words "no time" and "the end of life", which are more like thin needles, constantly piercing into my heart, and I suddenly understood why my grandfather was so sad before.
It is very likely that my master has already "left", and thinking about his previous face that suddenly became very ugly, I had a thought in my heart that I felt very guilty, maybe Master's death was caused by me letting him treat my ghost daughter-in-law.
If that's really the case, then I'm really damned, people Ziyun Zhenren treated me like this, and I killed him because of it, and I even thought in my heart that he wouldn't pay too much price.
I now realize that the price was too great and too heavy, and I was a little overwhelmed.
It's a whole way of exchanging a life for a life, I regret it, if I knew it was such a price, I should have listened to my grandfather and looked for another way.
It's just that I also know in my heart that maybe if we really leave at that time, then my ghost daughter-in-law will definitely be gone.
For a moment, that tangled emotion was about to torture me crazy.
"Grandpa, my master is ...... He ......, "I want to ask my grandfather if my master is dead, and I even have a sad hope in my heart, hoping that all this is my own cranky thinking."
But when this sentence came to his mouth, he couldn't say anything.
Grandpa naturally saw my thoughts, he sighed, and gently stroked my head, "You don't need to blame yourself, all this is a fixed number in the dark, your master has already calculated it, he can avoid this calamity, but he didn't do this, but chose to respond to the calamity, this may be his fate, even if there is no appearance of you, he ...... He also ...... Ay. ”
Although my grandfather was comforting me like this, my heart was always very uncomfortable.
"If you really feel that you can't get away with it, come here every year in the future to worship your master, your master knows that you have such a heart, and he will smile at Jiuquan." Grandpa sighed and said
I looked at my grandfather and asked, "Grandpa, did you know that if Master saved my daughter-in-law, she would die?" ”
Grandpa looked up at the sky that was mostly covered by trees at this time, and said, "Even if you know, sometimes even if you calculate the result, you can't change it, okay, now grandpa will take you to find that ancient road, as for the reincarnation grass, don't look for it for the time being, let's not say if you can find it, even if you really find it, you can't get it." ”
At this time, I suddenly remembered that my grandfather was the junior brother of Ziyun Zhenren, so how could I not know about this reincarnation grass, and I immediately asked, "Grandpa, what is this reincarnation grass?" Where exactly can I find it? There was no mention of it in the letter Master wrote to me. ”
Grandpa smiled bitterly, "The place of filth, the coffin where the corpse is hidden, will have impermanence reincarnation, and the zombies who cannot be pregnant into the Three Realms will often be accompanied by reincarnation grass." "Grandpa whispered this to me.
Later, my grandfather also explained it to me in the vernacular, which means that this reincarnation grass will only exist in a coffin sealed with zombies.
That's why Grandpa and Master said that I can't go to the reincarnation grass yet.
With my ability, if I encounter a zombie, I will definitely die.
