Chapter Twenty-Three: The Masters of the World
Outside the screen, Lu Qing and the others all showed shocked expressions after seeing this scene.
Who is this old goddess?
Since entering the space, all dreambreakers have scoffed at all the "worldly masters" who claim to be able to exorcise demons and subdue demons. They knew that there was no way to ward off ghosts other than props.
But this old goddess not only saved the young son of the Li family who should have died the night before, but also saw through the props on Akai's body with great accuracy...... Could it be that this old goddess can play an unusually important role in this mission?
Lu Qing couldn't help but think of an old lady they met when they went to Hong Kong on a mission two years ago, and that was also a goddess who had some Taoism. At that time, the old man not only gave them some pertinent advice, but also gave Li Wenqiao, who was kind enough to help, a talisman prop...... Lu Qing thinks about it now, and it seems that the space has deliberately arranged to meet the old man.
If that's really the case......
He suddenly realized that maybe in some missions, there really were humans who could fight against ghosts!
They may not be as powerful as Uncle Nine in "Zombie Dao Chief", nor can they easily subdue demons and monsters like the omnipotent Yan Chixia in "A Chinese Ghost Story".
It's just that these people do have the ability to communicate yin and yang, and in the mission, they will also play an auxiliary role in the mission of the dream breakers.
Compared with the one I met in Hong Kong before, the identity of this goddess named He Gu is even more important at this moment. As a plot character, she not only participated in the whole mission, but now she has taken the initiative to approach the Dream Breaker and give some other hints.
Lu Qing was a little excited, he believed that Akai must have thought of going with him. Given the preciousness of communication opportunities in missions, it's better not to waste them if they don't make it to the critical moment. So, he resisted the urge to contact the other party and chose to continue to watch.
"Thank you for the offer, I'll take note." Dai Shikai's previously slightly relaxed expression had become serious, he got up and bowed to the old man, and then said very solemnly: "Indeed, we are not just here to play. It was for the Li family that we found here. ”
Ayina looked at each other in shock, obviously they had made up excuses on the road before, why did Dai Shikai leave these things behind him as soon as they arrived here?
Before she could react, she had already said the purpose of the trip almost unreservedly: "Our specific identities are really inconvenient to disclose, and I hope you can understand." But this time I came to Dongping Village for only one purpose, that is, to find out what the ghost that haunted the children of the Li family came from. ”
"Do you have a solution to that thing?" He Gu didn't seem to have any doubts about his words, not only did she not continue to ask about their identities and the origin of the props, but she went straight to the point: "The one who pesters Li Minggang is a very disgruntled master. And I can feel that there is a deep cause and effect between it and this child, and I am afraid that even its death is related to this child. However, to talk about this child, he is only in his teens, and the resentment on this ghost has been around for decades. How can there be a causal link between the two? Therefore, I guess it must be this child's ancestors who did evil, and the descendants who were involved suffered. ”
Looking at Dai Shikai's thoughtful expression, He Gu also had a clue in her heart, so she continued to tell the story: "I see that this Li couple, as well as their relatives, have no karma on their bodies, except for this child...... I was relieved to hear them explain that night. This child is really not born to the Li family. ”
Hearing what the other party said, Ayina couldn't help but be surprised when she looked at the goddess.
Regarding the fact that Li Minggang is Jiang Kaiyang's son, they still heard about it in Qixia Town. And this old goddess has always lived in seclusion and has never left the countryside, and she had already guessed this fact before the Li couple explained the truth. Could it be that she is really a master of the world?!
"Indeed, we have already investigated before coming here, more than ten years ago, the child's biological father died tragically, and the biological mother disappeared mysteriously, and the Li couple brought him back." Dai Shikai replied, "We suspect that the ghost killed his father, and now he is targeting this child. It should be for all the descendants of the Jiang family to use their lives to repay the debts owed by their ancestors. ”
"It stands to reason that it is only right to repay debts and pay for one's life with one's life. can make this woman full of resentment and turn into a powerful ghost, and the resentment will still linger for a long time after her death, presumably the ancestor of the Jiang family must have done something hurtful. He Gu looked at the room behind her and sighed: "Pity this child is young and ignorant, but he has to suffer such a painful curse because of this. ”
Dai Shikai suddenly remembered something: "Senior, let's not hide it, although we have some props in our hands, there is no way to eliminate the ghosts." At most, it can only play a role in resisting...... I want to know, the night before yesterday, what means did you use to save Li Minggang's life from that desperate ghost? ”
He Gu closed her eyes and said slowly: "This female ghost is angry, and there is no way to overdo it. I watched over the boy for two nights and found that a curse had been placed on him. The spots on the child's body made him feel unbearable pain all the time, and within three days, the child would only die of pain. I calculated the cause and effect of him and this terrible ghost, so I decided to use the strength of the others to perform an exorcism ritual to try to remove the curse. ”
"The ceremony was successful, so Li Minggang is safe for the time being." Aina said.
He Gu looked at her and shook her head slowly: "You are wrong, the ceremony failed." ”
That night, no one expected that Zhang Hua and Wang Hu would come to Li's house on a whim, let alone that they not only did not go home, but also hid nearby to peep at the ceremony.
Because of the taboo, Wang Hu saw the true body of the desperate ghost through the telescope, so he was killed.
"The ghost has only temporarily shifted its target, and when it kills the other child, it will still come back." The goddess thought of Zhang Rongze, who came to him in the morning, and said to Dai Shikai: "I will go to Zhang's house tonight to think of a way, I don't know if you can help the old woman?" ”
"Of course!" Dai Shi Kai suddenly came to the spirit.
He Gu nodded, then took out a few crumpled yellow talismans from her arms and handed them to them: "You saw the ghost of that baby just now, and I see that you also have something on you...... Holding this may be useful if you encounter danger on the way back. ”
"Probably not, we've been here for a night, and it's nothing ......" Ayina met He Gu's fierce gaze as she spoke. For a moment, she even suspected that the other party had seen the picture of them going to the mountain to dig a grave last night, and she couldn't help but feel guilty.
The other party can even guess the relationship between the ghost and the Jiang family, so when the mountain inspected the corpse last night, maybe there was really some filth on the body, so that it would be seen through. Thinking of this, she respectfully took the yellow talisman.
"And those companions, I'd better advise them to be careful." He Gu's next words made the two of them even more stunned: "Tell them to go to a crowded place as much as possible, at this time period, the yin qi is very heavy." I'm afraid that thing is going to be out of the event too. ”
"Now, Yin Qi is heavy?" Aina looked at her watch, it was twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the sun above her head was scorching, and the earth was hot. I remember that when ghosts haunt in general missions, they are always at night or in extremely dark places, but now in broad daylight, how can there be danger?
And after Dai Shikai heard what she said, he seemed to remember something. He immediately picked up his mobile phone and called Wang Yichen and the others.
