I took a hand towel and wiped my right hand stained with tsamba and butter tea, and while unfolding the scroll and looking at it, I said to Uncle Ke, "By the way, Uncle Ke, when I was talking to Master on the phone just now, Master wanted you to help me with divination, and asked me to tell him the results. ”

This time, Uncle Liu spoke first: "Give you divination?" In our Soul Village, anyone can divination, but you can't, don't you know? ”

I raised my head to look at Uncle Liu, and wondered, "Why?" ”

Uncle Liu said: "You are destined to bring essence and yang, and there is no yin character that can help you join the hexagram." Originally, your life was too strong, and you should have had a rough life, but you changed your life with Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang, and you ate the land Neidan when you were in the old Huang family in the Northeast, and there was more luck in the ups and downs, so that your numerology is even more difficult to calculate. Oh, but I heard Senior Brother Xia say that after you reach the age of eighteen, your numerology will be stable, and at that time, someone from the Tunmeng lineage will be able to help you divination. ”

I said, "No, didn't Uncle Xia tell my fortune half a year ago?" ”

Uncle Liu smiled and said: "He is helping you tell fortunes, he is calculating the great luck of the Soul Village, the Soul Village has a catastrophe, and the robbery is in the head of Northeast China, so naturally something is going to happen in Shandong." Now that you are righteous, you and Senior Brother Chai are in Shandong, and there must be something going on over there. Senior Brother Xia counted all the people around the three of you before he came to the conclusion that the disaster would eventually come to you, and to be more precise, it would be with a person who had a lot to do with you. ”

Hearing him say this, I also recalled that the matter of transforming the Outer Heavenly Master was able to be excavated in the first place, and it seemed that it was thanks to Wang Dapeng who was haunted by ghosts.

At this time, Liang Houzai also said on the side: "But I heard that the fortune of Jisoul Village can't be calculated casually?" ”

Uncle Liu said: "It's not that you can't calculate casually, but you can only calculate once in ten years." In order to catch that Liu Wenhui, the actuarial calculation of this decade has been used, and if you want to be actuarial, you can only wait ten years later. ”

I asked Uncle Liu, "Is this also the rule set by the first ancestor?" ”

Uncle Liu shook his head: "It's not a rule, it's a rule." In fact, to put it bluntly, this is a spell, our Soul Village has also encountered a very urgent situation in the past, and in desperation, we have carried out more than one actuarial calculation in ten years, but no matter who is the person who carried out the second actuarial calculation in ten years, after divination, they will definitely not live for three days. Over time, there was such an unwritten rule. ”

After speaking, Uncle Liu was silent for a while, and then asked Uncle Ke as if discussing: "You Dao's fate has not been calculated, I remember that Senior Brother Chai should know about this, but how can he ......?"

Uncle Ke pondered for a moment, smiled, and said, "He wanted us to help Youdao, but he couldn't pull his face to ask for help, so he said things so vaguely." ”

But in my impression, my master is straightforward to his fellow disciples, do you have anything to say?

I was thinking so in my heart, so I heard Uncle Ke say to me: "In our Soul Village, your master can ask for anyone, but I can't ask for your Uncle Liu." ”

I asked why, but Uncle Ke smiled and didn't go, I looked at Uncle Liu again, Uncle Liu was silent for a while, then looked at me, and said very vaguely: "It's not because of Zhao Zongdian's matter, alas, how many years have passed, why does Senior Brother Chai still hold my grudge." ”

Uncle Ke smiled at him: "Senior Brother Chai doesn't hold a grudge against you. ”

Uncle Liu nodded: "I know, I know, I just said it casually." ”

After saying that, Uncle Liu and Uncle Ke didn't follow up, and I don't know what happened between Uncle Liu and my uncle.

They didn't say anything, and I couldn't ask more as a junior, so I just looked at the map in my hand and ate at the same time.

It wasn't until I was about to eat that Uncle Liu suddenly said to me: "We two old fellows, unlike your master, we have to have no skills, and we have no skills, even if we follow you to the tomb, it will be a burden." So I think so, we still won't drag you down, but since Senior Brother Chai asked us to help, we will definitely fully cooperate with you, although we will not follow you to the tomb, but we will put a formation on the ground to ward off evil spirits and provide you with a little help. Besides, just tell me what you need to prepare, and I'll be sure to have it for you. ”

I hurriedly gave Uncle Liu a smile: "Thank you, Uncle Liu." ”

Uncle Liu rolled his eyes: "What is there to thank for, and he is not an outsider." ”

My mind was all on the map in my hand, and I didn't say anything else, but still smiled at Uncle Liu.

Actually, when I first saw this base map, I didn't even associate it with the Jizo tomb we went in between.

In my mind, the central area of the Jizo tomb should be connected to four straight passages, and the entrance to Zones 1 to 4 is located on the walls of such a passage.

From the map, there is no road straight in the entire Jizo tomb, and the central area of the tomb is indeed connected to four tomb roads, but each tomb road is irregularly twisted and winding, and each training area is located at the end of these tomb roads.

However, when I think that the Jizo Tomb was built by the ancestors of the Yuxian lineage, I am relieved.

I quickly found Area 4 on the map, and at the end of the Section 4 tunnels, there were forty tunnels of various lengths, and all the tunnels were dead ends, except for the 15th tunnel we marked earlier.

The area on the other side of the stone gate is divided into eight equal parts according to the principle of the Bagua diagram, and each small area has many strangely shaped buildings.

Actually, I don't know if the things on the floor plan are buildings, because the map is so old that the markings written next to these buildings are blurred.

In the center of these eight small areas, a very clear circle is drawn.

I think this is probably where the Demon Slaying Pestle was placed.

I straightened my back and shouted out of the tent, "Dorjee! ”

Now that it was past Dorjee's meal time, it ran into the tent like a gust of wind, and I pointed to the circle on the map and asked it, "This is the place where Chen put the magic pestle, right?" ”

Dorjee tilted his head and looked at the map in my hand, and a whining sound came out of his mouth.

Xian'er translated next to her: "It asks you what is this painting about?" ”

While comparing on the map, I said to Dorjee, "This is the map of the Jizo Tomb, and this one is the area behind the stone gate." Let me ask you, is this place where the circle is drawn, is it the place where the magic pestle is displayed? ”

Listening to me say so much, Dorjee's eyes became more puzzled, and a series of whining sounds came out of its mouth, and Xian'er helped it translate: "Dorjee said, it doesn't know exactly what is behind the stone gate, the place is very dark, it walks along a path, and when it comes to the vicinity of the demon pestle, it can hardly see the light." Not sure what other places are like. ”

Liang Houzai asked Dorjee: "In such a deep underground, there is no light, right?" ”

Dorjee said that after entering the stone gate, there was a spring above his head, and the light shone in from there.

There's a spring overhead, and there's light coming in? I couldn't imagine what that was like for a moment.

I pointed to the "buildings" drawn on the map and asked Dorjee, "What are these things?" ”

Dorjee said that it might be a stone stele, and when it went in, it had only seen such a stone stele, and there was no word on the stele, but the evil spirit was particularly heavy and smelly.

I frowned, and asked Uncle Liu again: "Uncle Shi, when you returned to Jisoul Village, did you find Uncle Shi of Yuxian Yixi?" They must know about the Jizo tomb. ”

Uncle Liu shook his head: "I found it, but they have heard of such a place as the Jizo Tomb, but they have not had an in-depth understanding." This tomb is more than 1,000 years old, don't say it's them, even those of us who guard the tomb, we don't know what's going on inside. I searched around the library, but I couldn't find any information about the Jizo tomb other than this map. By the way, what are you going to go to the tomb? ”

I rolled up the map again and replied to Uncle Liu: "There are still some things I haven't figured out, so I'll be by noon tomorrow at the latest." It's been delayed for half a month, and if it is delayed again, I'm afraid something will happen. ”

Because I wanted to prepare the evil talisman to be used tomorrow, I asked Liu Shangang to stay behind and help Uncle Liu prepare things together, while Liang Houzai and I went to the stream on the outskirts of the ranch and began to prepare the spirit talisman.

When I was cleaning up the offering table, Liang Houzai suddenly asked me, "Brother Dao, do you understand what the words of sensitivity mean?" ”

I shook my head: "I also discussed this matter with Master when I called Master today, but Master couldn't understand for a while what 'going back to the past of the Night Demon' meant, but Master said that the body of the Night Demon should be the mask, not the daughter of the tribal leader." ”

At that time, my master said on the phone that the tribal leader should have been wearing a mask and being exposed to the evil qi of the mask, which caused the fetus to mutate, and her daughter did not show too much killing intent when she was young, it should be because she was not affected too much by the mask, but after she put on the mask, the evil energy in the mask began to gradually occupy her consciousness, until the two consciousnesses were completely fused together, and the leader's daughter completely became a night demon.

I told Liang Houzai in detail about Master's words, and after Liang Houzai helped me clean up the offering table, he was not busy preparing the evil talisman, so he sat alone not far away and pondered.

I didn't bother him, took out a cinnabar pen and rune paper, stood alone in front of the table and drew the soul sealing talisman, in addition, I also plan to prepare some soul fixing talisman and soul lock talisman.

After about an hour, I felt that the number of runes was about the same, so I stacked them and put them in a rune paper bag.

After tidying up, I glanced at Liang Houzai, who was still thinking with his head down.

I walked up to him, reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Hurry up and prepare, take care of your spirits, tomorrow is estimated to be a tough battle." ”

Liang Houzai raised his head and said to me, "Brother Dao, I know what it means to go back to the past of the Night Demon. ”

I was suddenly pleasantly surprised, and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Liang Houzai paused for a moment and said, "Grandpa Chai's judgment on the Night Demon has given me a new way of thinking, and I think that Mindu's claim of 'returning to the past of the Night Demon' is, in fact, to awaken the consciousness of the leader's daughter. ”

He said this in a vague way, and I didn't understand: "What do you mean by awakening the consciousness of the chief's daughter?" ”

Liang Houzai said: "Brother Dao, have you ever thought about why when the leader took back the power of the night demon, the night demon did not kill the leader, but only cut off her legs and locked her up. ”

I said, "Isn't it more cruel to cut off her legs and throw her in the dungeon than to kill her outright?" ”

"From a modern person's point of view, it is." Liang Houzai said: "But Brother Dao, don't forget, in the era when the night demon appeared, except for the Central Plains, people in many places still lived together in the most primitive tribal form, and many of them did not break away from the primitive way of life of drinking blood, or just got rid of the most barbaric way of life. At that time, people were not as civilized as modern people, and the primitive way of life made it impossible for them to break away from the barbaric nature of human beings. ”
