Chapter 70: Humans and Ghosts Have Different Paths
Yun Duruo sent me and Han Yu back to the Lechuan Inn, and after she left, I still didn't believe it, pestering Han Yu to ask about Yun Duheng, Han Yu shook his head and told me with some embarrassment that Dao cultivation is broad and profound.
The so-called Taoist five techniques, the sorcerer, the use of the Tao
It is to Taoist self-ferry, Tao and art often complement each other, to defend the body with magic, to become a mountain doctor to live with the truth, five techniques and easy to accompany each other, the life of the doctor is often used to help the world, in order to achieve three thousand meritorious deeds, and physiognomy is divided into one for the sky (astrology), two for the earth (feng shui), three for the people, the Taoist attainments are very high, he himself is only a peek at one or two, you must know that the highest state of physiognomy is to see the heavenly opportunity to avoid evil, leaking the opportunity to be punished by heaven, so all those who are skilled in physiognomy are five disadvantages and three deficiencies, this is retribution.
Han Yu is good at mountain art in the five arts, and the mountain art is the Taoist cultivation method, which is cultivated through methods such as Danfa Xuandian boxing spells, which is often said by Taoists to steal the heaven and earth and seize the creation, which is a kind of psychic cultivation spell, its main role is to mobilize the energy of the spiritual world, avoid evil and suppress evil, and avoid evil.
Han Yu is not good at mastering physiognomy, so his understanding of Yun Duheng is the same as mine, and he stays at what Yun Duruo depicts, but Han Yu has always emphasized that the physiognomy master who showed Yun Duruo and Yun Duheng's brothers and sisters is definitely a Taoist master who has reached the pinnacle.
I don't seem to understand it, but tonight I know that Yun Duheng and Yun Duruo are brothers and sisters, which makes me inexplicably happy, as for what Yun Duheng is, I don't really care, this is the best news I have heard in this time.
I was really sleepy after a tiring day, and I hadn't slept well for many days, I rubbed my eyes, and just wanted to go upstairs to see Han Yu sorting out the store's dark coins and paper supplies.
"When you were in the Yin Temple, did you come into contact with people who were paying respects every day?"
"yes, I wouldn't have done that." Han Yu glanced at me as he cleaned up. "Okay, why are you asking me all this?"
"Does it really work to burn these?" I walked back and asked seriously. "I mean, can you really get these when you burn them down there after you're dead?"
I had always scoffed at Han Yu's profession and business, and even disdained it, but after what happened to the little ghost that night, it had completely subverted my cognition.
"Of course it is useful, these dead coins, also known as Yin Si paper, are one of the cremation offerings when worshiping ghosts or ancestors, which means money for the deceased to use in the underworld, since ancient times, there is a concept that death is like life, and it is believed that people can continue to enjoy wealth after death, so there is a tradition of burning dead coins and paper sacrifices for the dead." Han Yu nodded and replied sincerely. "However, the people who go down to the underworld are more or less guilty, so these people under the Yin Si paper can't finish it, and they are more used to honor the king of Hades and reduce the punishment of the deceased in the underworld."
After listening to this, I nodded thoughtfully, picked out a stack of dark coins in Han Yu's shop, and then took some paper offerings.
"Can you just burn it?"
"Who are you going to burn it to?" Han Yu was stunned, probably because he didn't expect me to do this.
"Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan, their mother and son, have died for 20 years in vain, and now they have found out that they were murdered, and their mother and son are helpless in front of them, and no one must have burned paper for them, it's quite pitiful to think about." I took the incense candle and said lightly. "You said it's Halloween, so I'll help their mother and son."
"Go to the door and light three incense sticks, put two candles, and burn these coins and paper offerings next to them." After listening to this, Han Yu handed me a box of matches. "Remember, call them by their names, or they won't know you burned them."
I followed what Han Yu taught me, walked outside the door to light the incense candle, burned the dark coin beside it, sighed heavily, and said while putting the dark coin into the fire.
"No matter who harmed you twenty years ago, I will definitely find a murderer to avenge you, and if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, and the murderer of the year will have retribution sooner or later, you can rest assured under Jiuquan, don't come up to seek revenge and vent your anger."
A gust of wind blew, rolling up the burned paper ashes and fluttering, I burned the last coin in my hand, and when I got up, I saw Han Yu leaning on the lintel and looking at me.
"I see that you are sincere and didn't stop you, it's the ghost moon now, the yin qi on your body is already heavy, you burn these things and it's easy to attract Mu Hanzhi and their mother and son, last time you were scared half to death on the stairs, if you really provoke their mother and son, you won't be afraid."
I looked down at the fire burning on the ground and smiled faintly.
"I didn't do anything bad, what was I afraid of, last time...... I'm also a human being, if I don't respond to such a strong stimulus, then I'm not normal, I pity their mother and son, how can they harm me. ”
Han Yu took a deep breath, and I guessed that it should be that after experiencing the little ghost attack that night, there was too much gap between my reaction to the ghost and god theory, so that he still hasn't been able to fully accept my current mentality and thoughts.
I went back to the attic and lay down on the bed, perhaps too tired and dazed to fall asleep quickly, and in the middle of the night I smelled a pungent smell, as if something was being corroded, and the smell was getting stronger and stronger, and I rubbed my eyes and opened them in confusion.
There was no moonlight outside the window tonight, and the room was a little dark, and I got out of bed and looked at it without finding the source of the smell.
Multiply!
Just as he was about to return to bed, he suddenly heard a sound from behind him, which seemed to be made by water splashing on the red-hot iron plate.
It wasn't just a sound, the voice sounded behind me irregularly from time to time, accompanied by the pungent smell of corrosion, my back was a little faintly cold, and I was secretly startled in my heart, and slowly turned around.
In the dark room, the first thing I saw was two pairs of feet, barefoot on the floor, the place where I stood was wet, my breathing began to become rapid, my fingers subconsciously trembled, my eyes slowly looked up along the feet, and there were two people standing behind me.
A woman is holding a child.
The two of them looked like they were burned by something, their bodies were in tatters, the women and the children's clothes were wet, and from their bodies and the hems of their clothes there were water-like dripping on the floor.
Each drop made a sizzling sound, and a thin wisp of white smoke rose from the floor, and the pungent smell was emitted from the white smoke.
Sulphuric acid!
I finally could smell what the smell was, and I froze in place, I could already guess who the woman and the child were, and I never dared to look at their faces, and I remembered the two horrified faces I had seen at the top of the stairs that night.
Han Yu asked me if I was afraid, and I said I was not afraid, but it seemed that I had overestimated myself and was used to seeing all kinds of dead people, but it was the first time I saw dead people standing in front of me, and they were slowly walking towards me.
I instinctively wanted to step back, my legs were like being filled with lead, and I didn't obey the heavy call, Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan's bodies slowly walked out of the darkness, and I felt that my heart was about to stop beating, and my whole body was piercing cold.
I suddenly regretted not listening to Han Yu's words, it seems that what he has been warning me is not nonsense, the heavy yin qi on my body really provoked Mu Hanzhi's mother and son, and the scene of being attacked by the little ghost that night is vivid, but I don't understand, I have no grievances with their mother and son, why did I come to me.
I had already retreated to the window, Mu Hanzhi led Mu Xiaoxuan to approach step by step, each step they took left deep footprints, the sulfuric acid dripping from them corroded the floor, and the room was filled with a pungent smell.
In front of the window through the dim night, Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan's faces appeared in front of me, I looked at them with my mouth open in a panic, but this time I didn't feel fear, because they were two very normal faces, Mu Hanzhi was still as gorgeous as I saw in the photo, and Mu Xiaoxuan next to him was childish and innocent, but there was no expression on the faces of the two, Mu Hanzhi looked at me with a black hair shawl and a resentful look at me with Mu Xiaoxuan.
The white clothes stood out at night, they stopped one step away from me, I subconsciously tilted my head, I confessed that I didn't dare to make eye contact with them.
"I ...... I've burned things for you......"
I don't even know what the purpose of saying this is, probably because I am too afraid, and this fear is a fear that permeates the whole body from the inside out.
Mu Hanzhi's lowered hand slowly raised, I tried my best to hide back, my body was already attached to the window and could not retreat, in the night I saw her hand rotted by sulfuric acid shocked, and now it was approaching me little by little.
Their mother and son never made a sound, her fingertips were almost touching my body, but it was very strange that when I dodged, I saw Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan's eyes, there was no anger and coldness in their eyes, but helplessness and pleading, as if they were telling me something-#~ Miaobi Ge?++
The door was rushed open, Han Yu rushed in from the outside, next to him was the agile Silver Moon, sharp teeth accompanied by its low roar, Han Yu held a peachwood sword in his hand.
"Lonely souls and wild ghosts don't want to keep to themselves, they come here to do evil, and they don't look at what kind of place this is, since they dare to come, I will send you back."
Han Yu's two fingers had already picked up the Dao talisman, but Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan actually ignored Han Yu behind him, Mu Hanzhi's fingers continued to think about me reaching over, I was slowly no longer afraid, her eyes were clearly asking for help and not trying to hurt me.
I raised my hand slightly to signal Han Yu not to move, watching Mu Hanzhi's fingertips touch my body, and at that moment my head began to ache violently again, and I almost didn't stand still and half-knelt on the ground, and many fragmented memories came out of my mind that didn't belong to me at all.
Han Yu may have seen my painful expression and wanted to come up to save me, I vaguely saw a house in these memory fragments, the furnishings in it were very familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere, there was a pair of copper-clothed amphora porcelain vases on the wardrobe of the room.
This is Mu Hanzhi's room!
