Chapter 57: The Vanishing Village
"So you suspect that this is the Yin Master's doing?" After hearing this, the Dead Apostle nodded and said, "It's just that it's possible, and whether it's or isn't will be clear until you've been there." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
I pondered for a moment, intending to continue the question, just in time to ask about the Dead Apostle's background, "Since you are so powerful and know everything, then you must be either yin or yang......"
"I guessed that you would ask me this, anyway, I have already told you, I might as well say it directly, I am Yangshi...... It's just that there are very few Yang Shi still alive now, so I want to find the soul sealing talisman as soon as possible, otherwise ......"
The Dead Apostle coughed twice, cleared his throat and continued, "Otherwise, if that talisman falls into the hands of the Yin Master, it will be a big trouble. ”
At this time, Li Zhisheng also felt strange when he heard it, and he asked the dead disciples: "Didn't you say before that talisman was used to restrain unjust ghosts and thousand-year-old evils?" Didn't the Yin Master want to use them, why did he use the Soul Sealing Talisman to restrain them, isn't this the opposite? ”
The Dead Apostle looked at Li Zhisheng with unfriendly eyes and said, "This little brother, although it is a good thing that you are curious, but this matter has nothing to do with you, so don't ask more......
Hearing him say this, I thought to myself, "This dead apostle, talking about things is like squeezing toothpaste, and you don't talk about it without asking." And if you don't ask for it, you won't pay attention to it at all. Thinking about it, I looked at Li Zhisheng, and his face was a little unpleasant because he had just been rejected for questioning.
Seeing this, I also wanted to embarrass the dead apostle and vent my anger to Li Zhisheng, I said: "Dead curator, I'm actually curious about this matter, so don't hide it, you tell everything you know." ”
When the Dead Apostle saw that I deliberately blocked him with words, his face was blue and white for a while, but because he asked me to do so, he had to laugh and say, "Ah... This... Since Brother Shen also wants to know, then I might as well tell you. Didn't this friend of yours also say just now, the soul sealing talisman is used to customize resentful ghosts and thousand-year-old evils. ”
"Needless to say, the evil spirits of this thousand years are not something that one or two Yin masters can deal with, at least a dozen or twenty Yin masters with advanced Taoism can work together to deal with it. And at the peak, there were only a dozen or so famous Yin masters, and those who were not famous were in vain even if they came to a few hundred. Therefore, it is necessary to seal the soul charm to suppress the thousand-year-old evil, and then use spells to collect it for its own use. ”
Hearing this, I secretly sighed, "It turns out that the scroll has such a origin, then I can't say anything about giving it to this dead apostle." Thinking about it, I pretended to be suddenly enlightened and said, "It turns out that what kind of soul sealing talisman is still used for this kind of ......"
The Dead Apostles, afraid that I would continue to ask, stood up and said, "Alright, that's all I have to tell you. When are you going to leave to check out the village? ”
I thought for a moment and said, "It's okay for a few days, but won't you send me a helper this time?" The Dead Apostle sighed and said, "There have been too many things lately, and people have been sent out, if I really can't find anyone, I won't bother you, don't you say?" ”
"Then in that case, I'll go back and prepare, and I'll leave tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." With that, I got up and prepared to leave. "Wait~" The Dead Apostle grabbed me from behind, "This thing is for you, just in case." As he spoke, the Dead Apostle handed me a small black bag.
I opened the bag and saw that there were only three rectangular pieces of paper, a bit like the kind of rune paper used by Taoist priests to exorcise ghosts in the movie, but these three were not only old and yellowed, but even a little broken.
I thought to myself, "This person is too picky, what's the use of just three pieces of broken paper." I smiled and put away the bag and said, "Thank you so much, you are so thoughtful and help me prepare things." ”
The Dead Apostle also said politely: "Where, where you ask someone to do something, you should also prepare this little thing." After that, Li Zhisheng and I said goodbye to the Dead Apostles and left the exhibition hall.
On the way home, Li Zhisheng asked curiously: "What did he give you before leaving?" Can you show me? I snorted angrily, took out the bag and threw it to Li Zhisheng.
He hurriedly held it with both hands, weighed it up and down, and muttered, "What is this?" How is it so light? As he spoke, he opened the bag and looked at it, and then exclaimed, "Oops".
Hearing this, I quickly turned my head to look at him and said, "What's wrong?!" I saw Li Zhisheng standing in place, carefully took out the three pieces of paper in the bag, looked at them carefully, and said, "This dead apostle... It's so generous......"
"Just three pieces of torn paper, where is it generous~" I said dismissively. Li Zhisheng put the paper in the sun and looked at it and said: "Don't you know, this kind of yellow table paper used to exorcise ghosts is only graded, the second is paper, then the charm, then the order, and finally this is the kind of thing, and it takes at least tens of thousands of dollars to buy a genuine product in the world......
When I heard him say this, I couldn't help but exclaim, and hurried over to look at the rune paper with him in the sun. Li Zhisheng looked at me and said to me, "Look carefully, do you want to think about the spell of exorcism on the fiber arrangement on this paper?" ”
I widened my eyes and took a closer look, and was surprised to find that the tiny fibers on the paper were arranged with extremely tiny symbols, which indeed resembled the mantra of the Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts.
"So it's a treasure?" I asked, confused. After reading it, Li Zhisheng cautiously put the yellow paper back into the bag, and handed it to me and said: "It is indeed a treasure, this thing is not the kind used by ordinary Taoist priests, you need to write and draw, and you are naturally formed, and you may not be able to make one for billions of sheets." And from the point of view of this process, it is estimated that there are many years, and it is not easy to be handed down and still preserved so well, and now this thing can't be made at all, even if it is an imitation, it is almost impossible. ”
Hearing what Li Zhisheng said was so amazing, I thought about it and said: "No matter how powerful this thing is, I won't draw a talisman back, it's like a piece of waste paper." ”
He raised the corners of his mouth proudly and said: "This thing is powerful here, it doesn't need to draw talismans at all, even if ordinary talismans are drawn, they may not be useful, it depends on the Tao." You only need to smear a little blood on this, in fact, even if you don't apply it, you can use it, and it is already much stronger than ordinary charms. It can be more effective when it is smeared with blood, and it will increase to different degrees depending on the strength of the soul of the owner of the blood......"
Before Li Zhisheng finished speaking, I hurriedly tightened my bag as if I had obtained a treasure, for fear of losing it. Li Zhisheng looked at me from the side and shook his head helplessly.
When I returned home, I wanted to go alone this time, but as soon as Li Zhisheng got home, he said to Hu Fang: "I may have to go out tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." ”
As soon as Hu Fang heard that he was going out, he danced excitedly, and it is estimated that he was busy catching up with the manuscript for several months, and he was suffocated at home. No matter how much I tried to persuade her, she insisted on going, and in the end I had to compromise.
Since Hu Fang went, he also brought Li Zhisheng with him, at least sometimes he could help me come up with ideas.
In the evening, after dinner and TV, they went back to their rooms.
I went back to the house, thinking that I was just going out of town, not that I had gone too far and had nothing with me, but remembering what the Dead Apostle had told me during the day, I stuffed the spirit into my backpack along with the bag that the Dead Apostle had given me, and when the things were about ready, I fell asleep.
At dawn the next day, as soon as I opened the door, I saw Hu Fang preparing a large bag of luggage and putting it in the living room, while also constantly stuffing cosmetics and other things into the backpack.
At this time, Li Zhisheng also pushed open the door and saw Hu Fang's luggage, showing a surprised expression. I looked at Li Zhisheng, he also looked at me, and we said in unison: "You didn't tell her yesterday? ”
When Hu Fang heard us get up, he hummed a song and said to me and Li Zhisheng, "You still haven't prepared anything?" Aren't you going out the door? ”
I covered my face, pushed Li Zhisheng and said, "Go... You said that you leaked your mouth, you go and explain it......" Li Zhisheng turned around and looked at me innocently, as if to say to me: "I didn't know it would be like this." ”
I ignored him, waved at him, motioned for him to go, and washed myself.
After a moment of silence, Hu Fang's wail came from outside the house, "Why didn't you say it earlier!" I've been carrying a change of clothes for a month, and you told me I was just going out to town?! ”
After that, Li Zhisheng's voice came, "No, grandma, I'...... Don't beat me, don't blame me for this, you ...... You talk well, don't do it! Don't lose anything...... The cup can't be lost! It's going to die! ”
I brushed my teeth, listened to Li Zhisheng's screams, laughed so much that I took several mouthfuls of toothpaste, and choked on my cough.
After that, in order to calm Hu Fang's emotions, Li Zhisheng spent hundreds of times asking Hu Fang to have breakfast late, and finally calmed down. After breakfast, I thought that although I was just out of town, it might not be convenient to come back if I took a taxi, so I simply drove the company's car.
At this time, Hu Fang ate a luxurious breakfast of several hundred yuan, and the "fitness" in the morning was particularly comfortable, humming a song in the back seat of the car. I looked at Li Zhisheng in the co-pilot seat on the side again, his face and arms were full of blood, and I couldn't hold back for a while, and laughed again. Seeing that I was laughing at him, Li Zhisheng turned his head to look out the window, and muttered in a low voice, "It's not that you didn't tell me earlier, otherwise I would have said that I would have leaked my mouth......"
After driving for more than two hours, I finally came to the vicinity of the place that the Dead Apostle had said before. I got out of the car and looked around, and there were no villages, except for the highway that stretched straight in front of me.
At this time, an uncle happened to be riding a motorcycle from the opposite side, and I hurriedly stopped him and asked, "Hello uncle, do you know any village near here?" ”
The uncle looked me up and down and said, "Young man, there used to be a village around here, but it was all burned down by a fire. As far as I know, hundreds of people in the village died, and then they were bulldozed and planted with trees......"
