Chapter 1 Mistakenly entering a ghost village to collect ghost babies
The foothills of Mount Emei. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The mountains are like the sea, and the remnant sun is like blood.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, in the mountains and mountains, an ancient road of sheep intestines, one high and one short, two Taoist priests, one large and one small, walked in a hurry.
The tall young Taoist priest Tianchu who walked in front, although he was born with handsome eyebrows, but he couldn't see any fairy wind bones, this seemingly ordinary ordinary person was the head of the cold sun view of Qixia Mountain, such a small person who was not looked down upon by the famous and decent people, no one would have thought that in the future, he would start a peak confrontation with a generation of ghost kings.
The thin Taoist priest who followed behind Tianchu was Tianchu's apprentice, named Yun Zhen, don't look at him as thin and pitiful, but he was a very clever ghost, although he often caused trouble, he could always turn danger into a disaster, and he was a strange child who was a combination of bad luck and good fortune.
This is the fifth time that the master and apprentice have gone down the mountain after the great change in the Taoist temple, still to find the demon who once destroyed the Hanyang Temple.
It was getting late, and the master and apprentice were still trapped in the deep mountains, since the Pure Yang Sword was stolen, as soon as the night entered near the Hanyang Temple, there were demons and monsters waiting for the opportunity to move, and at this time, the beginning of the day had already felt the surrounding temperature plummet, and a gust of yin wind swirled around him.
"Master, wait for me, wait for me! I really can't walk anymore. Yun Zhen pleaded pitifully.
"Yun Zhen, if you insist, it's already dark, we have to get out of this forest quickly, stay in the village, and then we can rest." At the beginning of the day, I was sweating profusely, snoring and wheezing, although I was very tired, but I was also scared at the beginning of the day, so the speed under my feet did not decrease at all.
The night is getting thicker and thicker, on this dark and windy night of the month, Tianchu and Yunzhen shuttled on the path they thought they were familiar with, the more Tianchu walked, the more they felt that something was wrong, it stands to reason that they should have been out of this forest earlier, how could they feel that this forest was getting deeper and deeper?
It was pitch black all around, the branches of the trees were swaying in the yin wind, like a group of demons dancing wildly, rattling loudly, sighing and whispering, grinding around the ears and temples of the master and apprentice, Yun Zhen tightly grasped the sleeve of the Tianchu master, stomped small steps, and looked around in horror, for fear that a demon would suddenly flash out from behind the tree.
"Division...... Master...... That...... That ...... What is that? Yun Zhen's body suddenly froze, and he trembled and pointed to a fluttering shadow in front of him, his voice trembling to a different tone.
Tianchu was startled, stabilized his mood, and looked at it, in the darkness more than ten meters in front of him, there was a kite playing with children floating in the air, the kite was not affected by the mountain wind at all, and it emitted a dim trance light in the same place, jumping like life, jumping, jump......ing, jumping, as if calling them.
Tianchu flipped his fingers to Shi Yin, closed his eyes and concentrated, and there were words in his mouth, suddenly his eyes opened, and he pulled Yun Zhen and said: "This kite seems to be leading us, there must be something strange ahead, let's go and see." ”
Although Yun Zhen was afraid, he could only follow if he was going at the beginning of the day.
Sure enough, as Tianchu said, the kite saw that the two of them moved, and he also jumped lightly to keep a distance and move forward. The two of them just stared at the kite in front of them, following it all the way, and before they knew it, the night was thicker, the surrounding scenery became blurred, and they couldn't feel the mountain wind, so they quietly looked at the kite in front of them and jumped...... One Hop ......
Suddenly, the kite suddenly disappeared before his eyes, and as if he had been awakened from his sleep, he looked around and saw that they were already in a village.
Tianxin was shocked, I had never heard of it, and I had never seen any village here.
This village looks no different from an ordinary village, but it gives people an extremely eerie feeling, there is not a single room in the huge village with lights on, the doors of every house are open or closed, but there is no figure, it is surprisingly quiet, there seems to be a pair of eyes snooping on them behind the black window, which makes people's hearts hairy.
The more he walked inside, the more uncomfortable he felt at the beginning of the day, the yin qi became heavier and heavier, and his heart became panicked.
For the sake of safety, Tianchu stopped and took out two pure heart talismans drawn before leaving in his backpack, and the two people bit their fingers and pasted the talisman with blood on their bodies to ward off evil spirits and avoid ghosts, maintain their hearts, and not be confused by ghosts.
In the surprisingly quiet village, a child's laughter suddenly sounded, and Yun Zhen sat on the ground in fright, and said with a crying voice: "Master, Master, did you hear me? There's a ghost doll! ”
Tianchu sighed and said, "Don't be afraid, we have a talisman on our body, it can't affect us, as long as you calm down, it can't get close to you." ”
Yun Zhen nodded and exhaled a long breath, but this breath had just been half exhaled, whoosh! A white shadow passed not far in front of them, and there were several children's laughter, this voice came from the same person, but it came from all directions, like a child running around, as if playing with the master and apprentice at the beginning of the day.
Tianchu sweated on his forehead, closed his eyes and quietly recited the incantation, but no matter how he recited it, the laughter lingered around, making him upset, and he said in his heart that it was not good, could it be that he had bumped into an evil ghost?
Tianchu closed his eyes and chanted a mantra, suddenly felt a cold in front of him, a yin wind hit, he shivered and opened his eyes, a white and chubby little doll was curiously blinking and staring at him with big eyes, and his mouth made a giggling laugh, Tianchu was frightened by the scene in front of him, and sat down with a bang, this little doll looked ugly at the beginning of the day, and smiled back and forth.
The little doll smiled and stretched out her hand to Tianchu, Tianchu was so frightened that he hurriedly dodged, but his body stiffened, and he didn't dodge the little hand stretched out by the little doll, and the little doll reached out and grabbed Tianchu's big hand, and easily pulled him up.
Tianchu's mouth opened wide, and his surprise was incomprehensible, this doll's little hands were actually warm, and the real touch made Tianchu wonder, he was a living person?
How can a living person have such a heavy yin qi? Even a person like Tianchu, who has a little Taoism, will inevitably feel uncomfortable in this environment under the protection of the rune, but this child does not seem to be affected in the slightest.
Tianchu was just about to open his mouth to ask, the little doll stretched out her little hand again in surprise, poked left and right on Tianchu's body, and walked to Yun Zhen's side, stretched out her hand and was just about to touch Yun Zhen, Yun Zhen opened his eyes wide in horror and opened his mouth wide, and he fainted in fright.
The little doll grinned, turned her head and looked at Tianchu incredulously and said, "Why are you hot too?" Is it the same as me? Then he looked around and said, "Everyone is cold." ”
Tianchu was very surprised, he cast a seal with both hands to cover his eyes, chanted a spell in his mouth, and when he opened his eyes again, he found that the originally empty village was bustling with many translucent, gray-faced ghosts, they were both men, women, and children, but they were all harmless ordinary ghosts, and they had not yet cultivated to the extent that they could appear in front of the living.
The cultivation of the beginning of the day is not enough, there is no opening of the eyes of the sky, and they can only be seen temporarily with the help of charms, why can this little doll see ghosts at such a young age? Could it be that this little doll is gifted and born to be a person who can shuttle between yin and yang? Tianchu thought that it might be providence to have this adventure today.
Little Doll is such a strange person, if he continues to grow up in this ghost village, he will become a troublesome person in the future, maybe God led him here today, let him end this matter, Tianchu thought so, nodded to himself, and suddenly a sense of mission on his shoulders arose, and he felt that his image seemed to be much taller.
"Dao Chief......" A cold and hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind Tianchu.
An old man with a cane...... Ah no, the old ghost was standing behind Tianchu, looking at him with his dark and empty eyes. At the beginning of the day, he was in a hurry to take out the talisman paper from the baggage.
The old ghost giggled and said in his fluttering voice, "Don't be afraid, Dao Chief, the old man is not an evil ghost, if he wanted to hurt you, he wouldn't have led you here." ”
"What? You brought it to me? You...... What the hell do you want to do? ”
Tianchu looked at the more and more ghosts gathered around him and Yun Zhen who was lying on the ground and fainted, and couldn't help but feel weak for what he said just now, he thought to himself: They are so powerful that I can't deal with them alone, so let's not annoy them first, and listen to what they want.
Thinking of this, Tianchu coughed lightly, and immediately changed his kind expression and asked, "Old ...... Uncle, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Although I am only a small Taoist priest, I will try to help you as much as possible. ”
The old ghost nodded and said, "Well, that's right, the Taoist chief is a kind-hearted person, and we will rest assured that we will hand over Doubao to you." ”
"Who is Doubao? He? Tianchu pointed to the little doll who had been staring at him and poked him a few times with his finger from time to time.
The old ghost nodded and said: "Doubao is a poor doll, abandoned here, we don't know who his surname is, this doll likes to go to the mountains to pick beans and eat, we Doubao Doubao screamed, called used to it, he has been raised by us ghosts for five years, he has never seen a living person, the yin qi on his body is too heavy, it has caused him a lot of impact, the Taoist must also see it, if Doubao lives here for a long time, he will definitely have endless troubles in the future, so he must be sent out of this place while he is still young, If you can guide it well, Doubao's skills can still help the Taoist. ”
"Oh......" Tianchu nodded, and then said, "Why did you choose me?" As soon as Tianchu's words came out, he was ready to be praised by the old ghost, what kind of Taoism is profound, compassionate, Tianchu himself is a little embarrassed to think about it.
"Maybe this is the will of heaven, the introduction set by the old man, those Dao masters with high mana were broken at once, and there was no chance to lure them here."
Tianchu's face turned red suddenly, this statement clearly said that his Taoism is still shallow, his cultivation is not enough, an ordinary ghost can trap himself by hitting the wall, others only need three years to open the Heavenly Eye, and Tianchu has practiced for more than ten years and still has not opened the Heavenly Eye, only with treasures, runes to break into the world, the old ghost's words deeply stung him.
Tianchu Dao, his talent is dull, although he is a closed disciple but did not get the slightest bit of true transmission, all rely on hard work, only in the skill of drawing talismans quite accomplished, although nearly twenty years of the road but still stay at the beginner level, these years he has been relying on the Moqiu Dao Chang sent the gossip mirror and a variety of runes to break through the world, but has never encountered any fierce gods, although the heart said that to recapture the pure yang sword, but I don't know how to deal with the demon who really grabbed the sword.
"Ahem......"
Seeing that Tianchu was distracted again, the old ghost coughed twice in embarrassment, and then asked, "Dao Chief, this Doubao ......?"
"Take away, take away." Tianchu thought, isn't this nonsense? There are only two Taoist priests in my dignified Hanyang Temple, wouldn't I be made fun of by my peers when I said it? I can't destroy the Hanyang Temple in my hands, no matter who it is, it is impossible to enter the Guan, not to mention that this little doll is extremely talented, maybe with a little training, it can grow into a generation of heavenly masters, help me Guan recapture the Pure Yang Sword, revitalize the Hanyang Temple, and then lift the curse seal, just around the corner.
Tianchu was looking forward to a better future, and he was happy, and the old ghost looked at Tianchu, who was thinking about beautiful things, and shook his head helplessly.
Tianchu took the little doll's little hand and asked, "Little brother Doubao, are you willing to worship me as a master, is it okay for the master to take you to the world?" ”
"Do you have Doudou to eat?" Doubao bit his finger and asked innocently.
"Yes, yes, no wonder it's called Doubao, you know that you eat beans, Master's tofu, bean sprouts, bean bags, all kinds of beans."
"Wow, wow." Doubao danced happily.
Tianchu kicked Yun Zhen, who was already snoring to the side, and said, "Don't sleep, we have to hurry." Yun Zhen sat up and wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, leaned over to the master, grabbed the corner of his clothes tightly and moved to the other side, keeping a distance from the little doll.
"Hey, wait, the old man still has something to ask for."
Tian Chu turned around, frowning, thinking that there are still a lot of things to do with this old ghost, could it be that he still wants to buy one get one free, and also wants to follow me?
The old man said a little embarrassedly: "You see that we have stayed in the world for so long for Doubao, we are really helpless, we can no longer enter reincarnation, can you trouble the Taoist to help us, I wonder if you will overtake the undead?" ”
Tianchu almost carried it in one breath, he was once again looked down upon by this ghost, and he said angrily in his heart: What kind of Taoist is it that he can't even surpass an undead soul? Could it be that in the eyes of this old ghost, I was a mountain village man wearing a Taoist robe at the beginning of the day? Tianchu patted his chest and was smooth, for the sake of their ghosts, he could only endure it any longer.
At the beginning of the day, he breathed a long sigh of relief, sat upright, his luck condensed, his fingers pinched his knees, and he silently recited the mantra of purifying heaven and earth, and in an instant, all the dead souls in the village suddenly glowed and floated in the air, fading their green fangs, and turning back to the appearance before their lives, and gradually transformed into a cloud of light and shadow, like a stream of fireflies flying, like a dream, these souls fluttered upward, slowly rose into the air, becoming more and more faint, until they disappeared.
After the overcrossing was completed, Tianchu looked around again, and the village was long gone, and the three of them were already on a wide road. With a rooster crowing in the distance, the sky gradually brightened.
