Chapter 167: Five Ghost Dao Boys
The fact that the weir ghost broke into the house and attacked my grandfather really annoyed my grandfather and my grandmother.
The two of them faced the Taoist at this time, although the words were not intense, but they had a posture of asking the teacher, especially my grandmother, perhaps because of my grandfather's physical defects, she felt more sorry for my grandfather than for herself.
When the Taoist heard my grandmother say this, he hurriedly smiled, arched his hands and said: "The two nobles are not strange, the weir ghost is indeed driven by the poor road, but the poor road is not malicious, the poor road is just ......."
Before the Taoist could finish speaking, my grandmother snorted coldly and interrupted, "What is malicious? ”
The Taoist swallowed in embarrassment.
My grandfather waved his hand at my grandmother and motioned for my grandmother to stop talking, and my grandfather asked in a calm tone, "This Taoist master, have you heard of our family a long time ago?" ”
My grandfather's words seemed to relieve the Taoist, and the Taoist showed a warm smile again, which was obviously said by my grandfather. The Taoist said respectfully: "It is exactly, the poor Taoist has learned the Tao with the master since childhood, and often heard the master mention that there is a family surnamed Liu in Sanwangzhuang on the south side of the Yellow River, and the strange people in the family are doubled, and his father Liu Yi is upright and kind, and his thaumaturgy is profound, and his name is spread on both sides of the Yellow River; His son Liu Niandao, a civil and military all-rounder, is a gall, and the sound shocks the north and south of the river; His granddaughter-in-law Bai Shouzhi, known as 'Bai Xiangu', is very intelligent, green out of blue, and women do not let their eyebrows ......"
Hearing the Taoist say this, my grandmother sneered, and in my grandmother's original words, think about what the Taoist said, as if he was saying.
The Taoist said, and bowed his hand to my grandfather again, "Yesterday I met two people in the village, poor Dao did not know the true face of the two, and there were many offenses, and then I saw two people standing on crutches next to them, I heard that Liu Jizong, the only son of Liu's predecessors, had a disease in his right foot, and he couldn't learn the strange arts, and the poor Dao saw that the age of the three was very similar to that of the Liu family of Sanwangzhuang, and he inquired privately, only to know that Sanwangzhuang was destroyed in the war, and the Liu family moved here. ”
Listening to the Taoist talk about this, my grandfather's eyes flickered, as if he remembered the past Sanwangzhuang, a look of reminiscence and regret, paused for a while, my grandfather said slowly: "After you inquired with people, but I was not sure that we were the Liu family of Sanwangzhuang, so you asked the apprentice to drink the runic water of the five ghosts to the people in the village, if we are really the Liu family of Sanwangzhuang, we will not drink your rune water, at night, you will drive the five ghosts into the village, who did not drink the rune water, the five ghosts will find whom...... One of your methods is to confirm the identity of our family; Second, you're testing our house, and you want to know if our house is what the rumors say, right? ”
Hearing this, the Taoist threw his hand again and again, "Senior Liu is smart, Senior Liu is smart, Poor Dao is exactly what it means, however, Poor Dao has no malicious intent, even if the ghost enters your house, it will never hurt Ling Gongzi." ”
"Then what are you doing this for, for no reason, there is always a purpose, right?" My grandfather ignored the Taoist and asked calmly.
"Poor Dao is to ......" The Taoist wanted to speak and stopped, looked at my grandfather, and then looked at my grandmother, as if there was something unspeakable, and then made a gesture of asking for help, "Two nobles, this is not the place to speak, please move to the hall to talk in detail." ”
Seeing that the Taoist looked sincere, my grandfather and my grandmother glanced at each other, and my grandfather said calmly, "Then please." ”
The Taoist led the way, my grandfather and my grandmother followed, walked a few steps, my grandmother pulled the corner of my grandfather's clothes, and wanted to say something to my grandfather, in fact, my grandmother was afraid that this person would cheat, but my grandfather shook his head gently, both come and be safe, my grandmother swallowed the words back.
The main hall is brightly lit, and there are also four stone pillars on both sides, each of which has a tray-shaped oil lamp hanging on it, and the twist of the lamp is also the thickness of a thumb. It is said to be the main hall, that is, a Taoist temple that is slightly larger than the two below, and there are three statues of gods in the middle and back of the hall side by side, which is the so-called "three Qing" of Taoism.
There is a long incense case in front of the statue of Sanqing, and the incense burner and wax table are placed in a regular manner, and the incense burner is lit in the incense burner at this time, and the candle is burned on the wax table. The fragrance is curling, the statue is solemn, and there is really a feeling of being far away from the mundane halal and lacking desire.
However, in front of the incense case, where the futon was originally placed, there were actually five Taoist children, all of whom were about ten years old. Five Dao Tong held hands in front of the incense table in a circle, four of them sat cross-legged on the futon as if meditating, and the other, although holding hands with the Dao Tong on the left and right, also cross-legged, was lying on the ground with his back facing the sky, in a very strange posture.
As soon as Bu Yi walked into the main hall, my grandfather and my grandmother looked at these five Taoist children for the first time. My grandmother found that these five Dao children all had their eyes closed, as if they were asleep, and they didn't understand what they were doing, could it be that they were practicing some strange magic? However, these five Dao boys all had pale faces and blue lips, and my grandmother clearly felt that there was a chilling yin aura emanating from them, which was contrary to the atmosphere in the main hall. Looking at them, it was like seeing five dead children who had been out of breath for a long time, especially the Taoist boy who was lying on his back on the ground, not only dying, but also foaming at the mouth a little bit, which was very scary.
On the chest and back of the other four Taoist children, there is a piece of yellow paper the size of an adult's palm, on which it seems to be a rune drawn with cinnabar, and on the back of the yellow paper is a few zigzag serpentine runes, and the word "edict" is written at the beginning and end. The runes drawn on the yellow paper on the back of the four children are exactly the same, however, the runes on the yellow paper on their chests are slightly different, and the runes on them are all known to my grandmother, not so much runes, but symbols, each symbol is composed of three horizontal lines up and down, some are long, and some are broken into two, which are in the gossip: Qiansanlian Xun is full of middle void.
The Dao Tong lying on his back also had yellow paper on his chest, and the symbol on it was "Kun Sanxuan", and it was estimated that he also had the same yellow paper as the other four Dao Tong on his back, but he couldn't see it when he pressed it under him.
Qian represents gold, Xun represents wood, kan represents water, li represents fire, and this kun represents earth or earth.
Looking at the yellow paper on Wudaotong's chest, my grandmother immediately felt that this should be related to the Five Elements Ghost, and subconsciously looked at my grandfather.
My grandfather frowned at this time, and was also looking at the yellow paper on Wudaotong's chest, and after a while, he seemed to see something, walked to the Taoist boy lying on the ground in a few steps, raised his hand and took out the yellow paper bag wrapped in the clay paper man from his arms, and fell on the forehead of the Taoist boy.
saw that after Dao Tong was hit by the yellow paper bag, his body trembled suddenly, followed by an electric shock and sat up from the ground, and at the same time, a pair of eyes suddenly opened.
My grandmother was first taken aback by my grandfather's sudden move, but she quickly figured it out and looked at Dao Tong's face with a pair of eyes.
I saw that the white aura on this child's face quickly faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his lips also appeared red, and it felt like he had come back from the dead.
At this time, the Taoist looked at my grandfather with a grateful face, and there was a fiery light in his eyes, as if he had admired my grandfather to the point of throwing his body to the ground.
I heard my grandfather say lightly, "If you don't return the soul to him, this child will definitely die......"
At this time, my grandfather and my grandmother have already seen that the five elements of ghosts in the village are the souls of these five children, and this person may use some secret techniques to detain the souls of these five children from their bodies, and then refine their souls into five elements ghosts, this kind of five elements ghosts are not the five elements ghosts in the real sense, plausible, and have no power at all, just like the Taoist said, even if they enter the house, they can't do harm to people, to put it bluntly, it's used to bluff people. However, spells that could detain the soul of a living person from the body were rare at that time, let alone refining the soul of a living person into a ghost of the five elements.
In one of my experiences, I once met a person who used a spell to shout out the soul of another person, and the person who was shouted out of the soul was like losing his soul, which was not quite the same as the situation in my grandmother's experience, the one I encountered was a poisonous curse, very vicious. At the moment, according to the Taoists themselves, detaining the soul will not only not cause harm to the children, but will also benefit their cultivation, but as for how beneficial the cultivation is, I don't know.
After the Taoist boy pretending to be an earth ghost opened his eyes and sat up, he quickly regained consciousness, looked at my grandfather and my grandmother with a confused expression, and finally turned his gaze to the Taoist next to him.
The Taoist hurriedly said to him: "Little Wu'er, get up quickly and thank the old man for his kindness in recovering his soul." ”
The Taoist boy didn't seem to understand what was going on, but he listened to the words of the Taoist very much, quickly got up from the ground, knelt down on my grandfather's knees, kowtowed to my grandfather's rules, and at the same time, said in a soft voice: "Thank you for the kindness of the old seniors......
My grandfather smiled slightly, full of kindness, "Get up quickly, kid." ”
At this time, four yin winds blew in from outside the hall, whirring, and when the wind blew near, my grandmother felt a cold body, at the same time, I heard the Taoist next to me shouting, my grandmother turned her head to look, and saw the Taoist's lips squirm quickly, as if reciting a mantra silently, and then, the Taoist walked to the four Taoist children on the ground, and gently patted the top of each person's brain.
After a while, the four Dao Tong opened their eyes one after another, and after looking at my grandfather and my grandmother in confusion, just like the Dao Tong before, they fell on the Dao man. ~pen
The Taoist was relieved at this time, breathed a long sigh of relief, walked to my grandfather and my grandmother, and said to the four Taoist children: "Get up, come and meet the old Liu seniors and Bai Xiangu who are often mentioned to you as teachers......
After some courtesy, I don't know how my grandfather is, my grandmother has let down her guard, just for these five cute and sensible children, my grandmother just wants to raise the guard, it is impossible.
Wudaotong was soon sent out of the hall by the Taoist to boil water and make tea. The Taoist took my grandfather and my grandmother into an ear room next to the main hall.
The space in the ear room is not large, and the furnishings inside are also very simple, an old table of eight immortals, a few chairs with backrests, and a shelf on the side of the inner wall, on which there are many books placed in a regular manner.
After sitting down, my grandfather first asked the Taoist: "Dare to ask the Taoist, how do you call the Taoist number?" ”
When the Taoist heard this, he hurriedly stood up from the chair again, and said with sincere fear: "Senior Liu, your voice of 'Daoist' can torment the younger generation, the poor Taoist family name is Guo Mingxin, and the ancestor gave the name 'Xinyangzi'......" Saying, the Taoist Xinyangzi sighed, "It's not a secret, the poor Dao detains the apprentice's soul and pretends to be the ghost of the five elements, as the predecessor said, first, the poor Dao wants to explore the details of the senior's family; second, Poor Dao wants to test the means of the father and daughter of his predecessors; Third, there is one thing to ask for in the poor road......"
As he spoke, the Taoist Shin Yangzi pulled out the chair behind him and was about to kneel down for my grandfather-The Last Ghost Hunter-
