Chapter 3: The Beginning of the Plot (3383 Monthly Pass Plus Update)
"Maoshan Evil Cure Secret Book", is the core disciples of the Maoshan faction can learn advanced Taoism, this book records a large number of types of demons and monsters, as well as how to deal with them, can be called a big encyclopedia.
Since Zuo Xiaoyou got the secret book, he has been studying the content carefully, and when he encounters something he doesn't understand, he will go to Yizhuang to find Uncle Jiu to solve his doubts. With Zuo Xiaoright's spell foundation and understanding, it is extremely fast to learn, and after Uncle Jiu explains, he can usually draw inferences from one another, so that Uncle Jiu can't help but marvel at Zuo Xiaoright's super understanding.
This is a world full of ghosts, but Xiangxi is often haunted, and Zuo Xiaoyou often has the opportunity to encounter some lonely ghosts and wild ghosts who come out to harm people. Now that I have learned the Maoshan Dao Technique, I have learned how to subdue these ghosts, and then let these ghosts be used for my own use.
Not to mention, although the process of raising ghosts is a little disgusting, but the ghosts that are raised are really effective, such as reconnaissance information, as long as he wants to know, send the ghosts out, and find out all the information.
But there is also danger in raising ghosts, because there is more than one Maoshan Taoist priest in this world, and there are more than Maoshan Taoist priests who can catch ghosts, such as some monks, who are also very good at subduing demons and catching ghosts. Especially the Diamond Sutra and Great Compassion Mantra recited by those monks, which can make those ghosts reincarnate in minutes. In the past few months, Zuo Xiaoyou has raised more than a dozen ghosts, but three of them have been overtaken by monks, which is really infuriating.
But the left and the right can't be angry with them, because raising ghosts itself is opposed by the cultivation world, and his raising ghosts itself is not reasonable, and he can only admit it if he is overdone.
However, since then, Zuo Xiaoyou has lost his good impression of monks, and even wrote to Mr. Zhongshan, saying that in this troubled era, it is the time for my Chinese sons and daughters to work hard for the country. It is completely a waste of money and labor, and I hope that Mr. Zhongshan will issue an order that no monks will appear among the people under his rule, and even if there are monks, they must not rely on believers to support them, and they can only do it themselves and have enough food and clothing. The state does not raise borers.
Not to mention, Mr. Zhongshan attaches great importance to Zuo Xiaoyou's opinions, and he also knows that these monks are not only chanting scriptures. It is not of much use to the country, and it will increase the pressure on the people's lives, so Mr. Zhongshan agreed to Zuo Xiaoyou's invitation after discussing with his cronies, and the people under his rule are not allowed to have a profession like a monk who does not produce anything.
As for the Taoist priests who also belong to outsiders, because Taoist priests are not like monks who do not give birth, many Taoist priests have their own side jobs to support themselves. Therefore, the Taoist priest was not among the arrests.
As for the nuns...... A bunch of poor women, forget it!
The monk was arrested, but the Taoist priest was happy, since the spread of Buddhism to the East. Monks and Taoists have not dealt with each other, and the battle between Buddhism and Taoism has been for thousands of years. ups and downs, but never distinguished. But now it's okay, all the monks under Mr. Nakayama have been arrested. In the future, the religious leaders will be their Taoists.
Recently, the world's Taoist priests are celebrating together, and even Uncle Nine hums a little song from time to time, and he is in a good mood.
On this day, Zuo Xiaoyou encountered some problems again, and when he came to Yizhuang to find Uncle Jiu to solve his doubts, he found that there were several more corpses in Yizhuang, and there was also the breath of strangers. The aura on this stranger's body was somewhat similar to Uncle Nine, but not as strong as Uncle Nine.
Zuo Xiaoyou probably guessed someone, so he walked into Yizhuang and shouted inside, "Master." ”
Not long after, Zuo Xiaoyou walked into the hall where the coffin was parked and saw Uncle Nine sitting with a four-eyed Taoist priest in a yellow gossip robe drinking tea.
"Xiaoyou, you're here!" Seeing Zuo Xiaoyou coming in, Uncle Nine smiled and said, "Come and see your uncle." ”
Zuo Xiaoyou looked at this four-eyed Taoist leader, and sure enough, he was the junior brother of the ninth uncle, a Maoshan Taoist who was good at chasing corpses. It is also the Taoist priest who helped Uncle Nine destroy the zombies in the later part of the original movie.
"Uncle Shi." Zuo Xiaoyou respectfully clenched his fists and arched his hands.
"Okay." The four-eyed Taoist leader looked at Zuo Xiaoyou, turned his head and asked, "Senior brother, I heard that you accepted the richest man in Xiangxi as an apprentice last year, is this little brother?" ”
"That's right, it's him." Uncle Nine nodded.
"I can't believe it." The Four-Eyed Daoist was surprised: "So young!?" ”
"I couldn't believe it at first, but Xiaoyou is really young." Uncle Nine smiled and said, "Xiaoyou, you came here to encounter a problem, right?" ”
"I can't hide anything from Master." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "I do have some questions that I want to ask the master to explain." ”
"Okay, you wait." Uncle Nine said to the four eyes: "Senior brother, you are tired after a day of traveling, go and rest!" I'll pick you up again in the evening. ”
"Then don't disturb the senior brother and apprentice." The four-eyed Taoist chief smiled, shook the bell, and controlled the eight dead corpses behind him to stand aside, and lit the lamp oil to prevent the dead corpses from making trouble.
After the four-eyed Taoist left, Zuo Xiaoyou asked, "Master, is Uncle a corpse chaser?" ”
"He's just good at chasing corpses, in recent years, there have been a shortage of soldiers, there are dead people everywhere, and there is a lot of money to be made by chasing corpses, so he ran to be a corpse chaser. In addition to the ability to drive out corpses and exorcise evil spirits and catch ghosts, your uncle will do it. Uncle Nine said.
"But the corpse can only be driven in our Xiangxi area, but in the past two years, with the governance of Mr. Zhongshan, there are very few dead people in Xiangxi, and Uncle Shi's work of chasing corpses will not last long!" Left small right road.
The scope of activities to drive corpses is basically limited to the mountainous areas of western Xiangxi, generally north to Langzhou, can not cross Dongting Lake, to the east only to Jing~zhou, to the west only to Fu~Zhou and Wu~zhou, to the southwest can go to Yun~Nanhegui~Zhou. Legend has it that these places are the ghost kingdoms of the ancestors of the Miao people, and they are far away, and even Lao Si can't drive those zombies.
When I first watched the movie, Zuo Xiaoyou didn't know where the background of "Mr. Zombie" was, but later I found out the area according to the behavior of the four-eyed Taoist to drive out the corpse, which is Xiangxi. Out of Xiangxi, it is impossible for any more corpse chasers to appear, which is also the reason why Zuo Xiaoyou can quickly confirm the location in the original movie.
Xiangxi chases corpses, what an obvious hint.
"It really won't last long." Uncle Nine nodded and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't do it, anyway, you can still exorcise evil spirits and catch ghosts, and you won't die of hunger after all." If you don't say that, what don't you understand? Just ask! ”
"Yes, Master. I don't quite understand ...... here."
Because he had to pick up the wind and wash the dust for his uncle tonight, Zuo Xiaoyou deliberately stayed in Yizhuang. Halfway through the feast, Master Wen Cai ordered him to offer incense to the corpses in the coffins, but it didn't take long for Zuo Xiaoyou, Ninth Uncle, and Four-Eyed Daoist who were eating to hear bursts of screams.
As soon as the faces of the three of them changed, they immediately got up and ran towards the main hall, and soon met Wen Cai who ran out of the main hall: "Master." ”
Uncle Nine grabbed him by the collar: "What's the matter?" ”
"Master, it's ...... inside" Wen Cai pointed to the inside of the main hall, unable to say anything else.
Uncle Jiu, the Four-Eyed Daoist, and Zuo Xiaoyou immediately rushed into the main hall, and saw a dead corpse dressed in Qing Dynasty clothes rushing towards them.
The moment he saw this dead body, Zuo Xiaoyou knew that he must be the Qiusheng who deliberately mischievolently scared Wencai.
Originally, it would be fine, but he felt that Qiusheng didn't know how to do things, and he always caused trouble, so he should be taught a lesson. So Qiusheng was unlucky, and was punched and kicked by Uncle Nine and the Four-Eyed Daoren, and the beating was unbearable.
"Master, it's me!" When he was dying, Qiusheng finally revealed his identity, and only then did he escape the doom of being beaten to death.
After that, Uncle Nine and the Four-Eyed Daoist began to collect the dead corpses, and Zuo Xiaoyou also followed to help. The trio worked together to quickly secure the eight dead bodies.
After Qiusheng and Wencai, who had caused trouble, helped to paste the charm on the forehead of the dead corpse, the four-eyed Taoist also put on the gossip robe again, and pointed at Qiusheng and Wencai helplessly: "You two rabbit cubs, what is not good to play, play with my customers, sooner or later there will be a big disaster." ”
Qiusheng was embarrassed, but Wencai was very aggrieved: "It's not me. ”
How could Qiusheng let himself be punished alone, he immediately covered Wencai's mouth and pulled him back.
"Don't say anything, I'm leaving." Seeing that the two of them were arguing again, the four-eyed Taoist shook the bell helplessly and said.
"Leaving so soon? Stay two more days! "It's not easy to meet my junior brother, and Uncle Nine is a little reluctant.
"Okay, okay, there will be a period later." They are all cultivators, not so mother-in-law, the four-eyed Taoist said to leave, and soon left Yizhuang with the dead body.
After the four-eyed Taoist left, Uncle Nine looked at Qiusheng with a good face, Qiusheng was very embarrassed and worried.
"What are you doing here at such a late hour?" Uncle Nine snorted coldly: "Otherwise, your aunt will come to ask for someone again, go back!" ”
"Oh." Qiusheng was like being pardoned, and quickly took off his clothes and left.
"Xiaoyou, you can go back too!" Uncle Nine turned to Zuo Xiaoyou and said.
"Nope." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "It's rare to come to Master, I want to ask Master more questions." ”
"That's it!" Uncle Nine nodded: "It's okay." Master Ren of the county town invites me to drink foreign tea tomorrow, and you go with me tomorrow. ”
"Yes, Master." Zuo Xiaoright's heart moved: the plot has finally begun.
……
The next day, Zuo Xiaoyou and Uncle Nine went to the county seat to make an appointment, and Wencai, who was supposed to follow Uncle Nine to the appointment, stayed to watch Shouyizhuang.
When Zuo Xiaoyou and Uncle Nine arrived at the coffee shop, Master Ren was already waiting on the second floor.
"Uncle Nine." Seeing Uncle Jiu, Master Ren stood up and said hello, but when he saw Zuo Xiaoyou, his face suddenly changed, and the kind of superior arrogance disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a servile face: "It turns out that Mr. Zuo is also here." ”
Zuo Xiaoyou nodded with a smile: "Master Ren, I haven't seen you for several months since the last time I said goodbye to the restaurant, okay?" ”
"TOEFL TOEFL, it's good. You may be seated, you may be seated. ”
Although Master Ren is also a wealthy man in the local area, compared with Zuo Xiaoyou, the first tyrant in Xiangxi, he is several levels behind. In the face of Uncle Jiu, he can still maintain his identity, but in the face of Zuo Xiaoright, Mao's identity, of course, is to stutter. (To be continued.) )
