Chapter 087: Twenty Powerful Ghosts
The ox horn hexagram is composed of two hexagrams in the shape of ox horns. Putting the two hexagrams together is a complete horn shape.
Of course, this horn is not the shape of a big buffalo horn, but a few inches long yellow horn.
The horn hexagram I used wasn't made from real horns. It is made of wood from huanghuali, but it has been cut to the shape of a cow's horn.
This ox horn hexagram is a kind of ritual weapon that we often use as physiognographers, so I always have a pair in my bag.
I just used the "Seven Transformations of Ghost Phases" in the Seven Phases Record for divination. And I used the ghosts in this tomb as the object of divination.
After this hexagram lands, there are generally three kinds of hexagrams.
One is two tangent faces downward, and the arc faces upward, which is the yin hexagram.
The second is that the two tangent sides are upward, and the arc is facing downward, which is the yang hexagram.
The three is two hexagrams, one tangent facing upwards and one tangent facing downwards, which is the holy hexagram.
Under normal circumstances, when asking about a hexagram, it will be thrown three times in a row.
Three throws, three hexagrams, will combine twenty-seven variations. We call them the twenty-seven hexagrams.
Then find the corresponding 27 hexagrams according to the hexagrams thrown out three times, so as to achieve the purpose of divination.
And this time, I actually made a hexagram in the first hexagram, and I was naturally shocked.
The so-called hexagram is the horn hexagram I throw, which is neither yin nor yang, but stands.
It's the equivalent of flipping a coin, either on the side of the word or on the side of the flower. This hexagram is equivalent to a coin thrown out that stands up and does not fall down.
"What's the situation? How did you make a hexagram? Ah Quan on the side also saw the hexagram I typed, and his brows furrowed deeply.
"It's difficult, there are ghosts in here, but they should be restrained by something and can't move! They must have become hostile to me because I had lit the incense at this door, and they couldn't enjoy it. That's why I made a hexagram! I said to Ah Quan.
This is the first time I have played a hexagram, and my mood is naturally very bad. No matter what the divination is, if you make a divination, it will be bad for me and the object of my divination!
"So what now?" Ah Quan asked me.
"Hey...... I don't know anymore! I actually made a hexagram!! I said unhappily.
I still remember that the old man of our family told me that if a physiognomy master makes a hexagram, he will be unlucky, and if he is not moldy for half a year, he will be moldy for three months.
Therefore, looking at the trigram on the ground, my mood naturally does not improve.
I picked up the horns on the ground, put them together in a depressed way, and put them away.
"Hey...... Asking for trouble! How nice it would be to go straight in! Xiao Feng walked over, waved the demon slaying pestle in his hand and said.
When she said that, I was immediately upset.
I didn't fucking know I was going to make a hexagram! If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered.
But now that the matter has come out, there is no use regretting it.
"Let's go! Kill it! I pulled out a canopy ruler from my bag and held it in my hand.
The canopy is a rectangular square of wood. The six sides are carved with the names of the sun, moon, and the twenty-eight nakshatras, as well as the three stars, the seven stars of the Big Dipper, and the six stars of the Southern Dipper, as well as the holy name of the Heavenly Canopy Yuanshi. In this way, the divine power of Marshal Tianpeng is exercised, and it has the effect of warding off evil spirits and eliminating demons.
Moreover, my canopy ruler is made of lightning strike wood, which also contains the power of thunder.
This artifact is treasured by the old man in our family, and I am reluctant to use it in normal times, because the situation is very complicated this time, so I brought it out.
"Huh! This is long overdue! Ah Quan smiled, only to see that his hand flickered, and there was an extra whip in his hand.
Seeing that what he took out was actually a pure whip, I couldn't help but look at it a few more times. Because there are so few people who use it.
The wooden handle he holds is carved with a snake's head, and underneath it is a rope made of palm fiber, with an end at the back, which looks like a complete snake. The head of the snake is painted with vermilion lacquer, with a gossip pattern on it, and at the location of the mouth of the snake, there is a carving in the shape of a human head that emerges from the mouth of the snake.
This whip is very delicately done, but it doesn't look like it's very powerful. It doesn't look like the demon slaying pestle in Xiao Feng's hand, which looks powerful.
"Let's go!" Xiaofeng walked straight over, bumped into me and Ah Quan, and passed through between us.
Ah Quan and I glanced at each other, and then we both sighed helplessly, and followed Xiaofeng towards the gap.
Xiao Feng bent down slightly, and was about to enter the gap.
But at this time, I only heard her roar of "drinking", and her body instantly began to retreat, and the demon pestle in her hand kept swinging.
Ah Quan and I were both scared.
I subconsciously took a few steps back, and Ah Quan reached out to help Xiaofeng.
"What's wrong?" Ah Quan asked loudly.
"Whoa!!" Xiao Feng stood firm, and the demon slaying pestle in his hand was also raised high, looking like he was about to attack at any time.
Ah Quan and I heard her words and immediately looked at the gap.
Sure enough, by the light outside, I saw several ghosts moving inside the gap. But for some unknown reason, they just moved around the chamber and didn't come out through the opening.
"How many?" Ah Quan asked Xiaofeng.
"No less than twenty!" Xiaofeng replied.
Oh, my God! Twenty?
"Could you be mistaken?" I asked her timidly.
"I don't believe you're going in and looking at it yourself!" Xiaofeng turned his head to look at me and said.
How can there be so many ghosts?
Why don't they leave the burial chamber again? The incense I ordered outside was very attractive to them.
I don't believe they would like it.
"It's okay, aren't there just more than twenty ghosts? Let me!! Ah Quan smiled, raised his leg and walked towards the gap.
When Xiao Feng saw him walk up, he immediately snorted coldly: "Come back!" Look for death! ”
Hearing Xiaofeng's cold drink, Ah Quan stopped, pursed his mouth, and walked back in a daze.
"More than 20 of them are all terrible ghosts! And the resentment is very strong! They're all stuck in that gap, and they can't get in! Xiaofeng said coldly.
Indeed, if it is really as Xiaofeng said, it is really difficult to get in. Because the position of that gap is so small, I can't use it when I first enter.
Not to mention more than 20 ghosts, even five or six of them attacked us at the same time, and we couldn't parry.
"What then?" Ah Quan said to Xiaofeng.
"What can I do? Keep bombing, it's a big deal to blow up all this tomb! Xiao Feng's face was full of anger.
"Uh......" Ah Quan opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it, just nodded and said, "Then blow it up!" ”
When I heard them say that they were going to continue bombing, I groaned. Because I'm afraid that one of them will accidentally collapse the whole tomb.
Of course, their method is not impossible, it is a big deal to blow up the entire tomb, and then slowly dig it.
But wouldn't it be better if there was a better way to preserve the tomb?
"What's wrong? Ogawa, what are you thinking? Seeing that I didn't speak, Ah Quan immediately asked me.
"That...... Can we not blow up, let's think of other ways! I said.
When Ah Quan heard this, he immediately asked me, "Oh, do you have any good ideas?" ”
I shook my head and said, "I don't have a good idea!" I just think it's a shame to blow up this tomb!! ”
When Xiaofeng heard this, he looked at me and said, "Cut! I also know it's a pity! There's probably the fruit of the Bloody Smallpox in there, and I want it too. But the gap is blocked by ghosts, and you can't get in at all, so what if you don't continue to bomb? ”
The fruit of the smallpox of the Blood Styx?
That's the Blood Immortal Heavenly Fruit!! This thing is the most yin and cold thing, and it also contains a fierce blood poison, but it is a very rare treasure.
The fruit is dried and ground into powder, and the attack talisman drawn in the cinnabar ink increases the attack power by at least ten times.
That's right! How did I not think of it?
Since there is a Blood Hades Smallpox here, then there may be a Blood Hades Heavenly Fruit!
"That'...... Let me try it, shall we? Let's see if I can deal with the demons in the gap! I said to them.
"You??" Ah Quan and Xiao Feng asked me in unison.
Xiaofeng looked at me with disdain, and Ah Quan smiled slightly. I know they're looking down on me.
However, I have my thoughts.
"Yes, I'll try! If it doesn't work, I'll go back! I said.
After I finished speaking, I didn't wait for them to say anything, and walked straight to the gap.
